THE Democratic Steering Committee of the U. S. Senate have decided not to take up any of the popgun tariff bills. The chairman of said caucus has posted a notice to all Democrats as follows: "Don't monkey with the tariff Buzz Saw."

THE railroad companies are glad to haul a postal car from New York to Puget Sound for six hundred and fifty dollars, yet for a car no larger, filled with passengers, they demand over five thousand

dollars.

Now when the people take

charge of the railroad business, you will see passengers carried for one fourth the present rates.—Journal

PHILADELPHIA North American: At this time, when the fate of Professor Wilson and others hangs in the balance, and their uncle is casting about for vacant foreign missions or other offices, we are reminded of one of boyhood's little jingles, viz: "The wind blew east,

The wind blew west, The wind blew over the cuckoo's nest Where shall this one—that one, go?"

AN enterprising southern man once conceived the idea that cotton could be picked by trained monkeys, and that one man could boss seven monkeys. Upon a test it was learned that it would require seven men to successfully operate one monkey and the plan was abandoned.

The job Secretary Carlisle is fixing up for Uncle Sam to watch forty-four State banks with no other power than to tax them renders the monkey enterprise tame and easy by comparison.—Crawfordsville Journal.

THE fees of the Coroner's office are something that need vigorous attention by the next legislature. The people have been robbed by many coroners over the State who charged illegal fees. Marion county shows up the worst. Shelby county though paid out $411.60 for three inquests last year. Coroners are an expensive luxury under the present fee system. In many cases it costs $75 or $100 for the coroner to bring in a verdict saying a man was killed by the cars or in some other way equally as plain when every one knows the facts as well as the coroner.

GOLD is leaving the U. S. Treasury now at the rate of a million dollars a day. That is what the bond buyers want however. They have disposed of their recent purchase at a good big advance and are ready for more. Carlisle's plan of keeping up the gold supply in the treasury is similar to the man's, who was trying to fill a well by the water which he pumped from the well and then poured back. As financiers for the government and the people, Cleveland, Carlisle & Co. are failures. They do very well for bond buyers and money sharks, but the people will have to foot the bills.

THE plans of currency reform—the Baltimore and the one proposed by Carlisle—do not differ much. Of the Baltimore plan the champion of the industrial and business interests of the country, Gen. James B. Weaver, says: •'The Baltimore currency is a bold, bare faced proposition to apply the methods of the stock exchange, trust and board of trade combined, to the entire business of the country to authorize the money sharks alternately to bull and bear all markets and gather to themselves all the profits of industry. It is an attempt to transfer as a gratuity to speculators the highest attribute of sovereignty: that of issuing the currency of a great nation and controlling its volume. A congress which has its walking papers is just the ~i. kind of a body the moneyjpower delights to toy with."

Important Court Decision.

The State Appellate Court handed down a very important decision in reference to the liability of a saloon keeper for damages, Wednesday. A bar tender sold whiskey to a young man, who was a minor, which made him drunk, and on the way home he stumbled into the river and was drowned. The boy's father brought suit against the saloonist for damages for the loss of his son and recovered judgment in the lower court for $675. An appeal was taken and the judgment affirmed by the Appellate Court, which, in affirming the action of the lower court, says: "One who in violation of law sets in motion a dange.ious, uncontrolled force must take notice of the consequences that are liable to follow and be ready to answer under the statute for damages to the person or property of those who are within its protection. 2. Where a liquor dealer sells liquor to a minor whereby he is crazed and helpless, and by reason of such condition falls iu a stream and is drowned, the dealer is liable.

TRAGEDY IN A BAM

It May Result Fatally to at Least Three Persons.

ONE OF THEM ALREADY DEAD

The Assistant Bookkeeper and Collection Clerk Uses His Revolver to Hide His Crimes—Two Men Shot and Then ft Bullet Is Sent Into His Own Brains— Details of the Horrible Event.

COUNCIL BLUFFS, la., Dec. 17.—At 11 o'clock Sunday a tragedy was enacted in the private office of the Citizens' State bank of Council Bluffs which may result fatally for three persons. John Huntington, assistant bookkeeper and collection clerk, shot C. A. Cromwell of Minneapolis and F. N. Hayden of Chicago, representatives of the Fidelity and Casualty company of New York and then emptied his revolver into his own brain, inflicting a wound from which he died two hours later. Cromwell and Hayden, it is thought, will recover.

Huntington was one of the best known men in Council Bluffs aud numbered his friends by the hundred. So far as can be learned he had no bad habits, and this is what makes his act the harder to explain. On the 20th of last July a check of $500 was turned over to him by Ira F. Hendricks, one of the employes of the bank in the regular routine of business. Huntington charged up the check to the Union Stockyards National bank of South Omaha, and from that day to this nothing whatever has been seen or heard of it. The day following Huntington left for a vacation trip of several weeks to New York city. The bank officials kept thinking the check would turn up sooner or later and deferred any action. As time passed on and it became evident that the bank was out $500, they sent a message to the Fidelity and Casualty company notifying it of the fact and suggesting that inspectors come on at once and make an investigation.

The bank officials claim that at the time they had no charges to make against Huntington or any employe of the bank. All of their employes were bonded in the Fidelity and they preferred that the Fidelity company should make the investigation rather than 'make it themselves.. Messrs. Cromwell and Hayden arrived in the city last Friday and took rooms at the Grand hotel. They cross-examined each of the bank employes through whose hands the missing check had passed, and among the rest, Huntington. They claimed to have discovered that he had been spending more money than the salary of $45 a month which he was receiving would warrant, and on this, together with the fact that the check had been last seen in his hands, they based their suspicions.

Huntington and the representatives of the Fidelity company met Saturday night and made arrangements for another meeting at the bank Sunday morning, when the investigation was to be resumed. At the hour appointed they were together, and Cromwell and Hayden commenced to put the young man through a running cross-fire of questions. President J. £. Bdmundson and Cashier C. R. Han nan of the bank were present during most of the interview. The conference had not been iu progress for more than 15 minutes when Huntington rose from his chair, pulled a revolver and commenced firing at the representatives of the Fidelity company.

The revolver he used was a 41-caliber that belonged to the bank and had been kept in the desk of G. F. Spooner, the paying teller. The first three shots were fired at Cromwell, who had taken the lead in the interrogation, and all three took effeot. The fourth struck Hayden and then Huntington raised the weapon to his own head and fired. He fell to the floor unconscious and remained so until his death at 1:10 p. m.

The two wounded men ran out of the bank down First avenue and into the Grand hotel, blood dripping from them at every step. They were taken to their rooms and Dr. Donald Macrae, Jr., was summoned. He found that one of the bullets had taken effect in Cromwell's back, just to the right of the spine, about the waist line. It was found about four ic^hoe below tha surface and Extracted. Tue"second bullet strucK in the left side of his cheek, plowed its way around the right side of his neck, and came to a stop after just missing the carotid artery. The third struck him in the right wrist, he haying thrown up his hand to strike the revolver out of Huntington's hand. It broke one of the bones of the forearm clear in two and imbedded itself in the bone, almost severing it. When the ball was taken out it was cut almost in two from the pointed end down. Cromwell will probably lose the use of his right hand on account of a stiffening of the wrist joint as the result of the fracture of the bones.

Hayden fared better. The bullet Struck him in the neck, and after passing around about a quarter of the way imbedded itself in a panel in the door, where it was afterward found. His wound is not considered of a serious nature, but a variation of half an inch would have killed him.

The bullet that took Huntington's life entered the skull just behind the ear, and lodged back of the right eye, where its presence was shown by a discoloration of the lid. His having the weapon in his possession showed he had planned it all out before hand, and his coolness, in the face of the terrible deed he was meditating, is surprising, all of the men who were present at the interview testifying that they had not the slightest idea anything out of the ordinary run of things would be thought of by the young man.

The parents of young Huntington were at once summoned. The aged mother was beside herself with grief. The death jf their son was affliction enough, but the honest old people appeared to be grieved more that their son should have committed the two crimes of robbing his employers and then attempting to murder, than over the mere fact of his death. "That he is dead is bad enough," said his mother, "but that he should do such a thing is terrible."

J. D. Edmundson, the president of the bank, was seen and asked for his version of the affair. He said: "Huntington, Cromwell, Hayden and I were sitting in the private office. Cromwell was in the northwest corner of the room, I in the northeast, Hayden about the center and Huntington between Har-iou and myself. We were seated

•bout a table that stands against north wall. Mr. Hannan, the cashier, had been sitting between Hayden and Huntington until a few minutes before the shooting took place, when he went out into the front part of the bank. Hayden and Cromwell had been questioning the young man very closely about his mode of liTing. On one occasion he had deposited $70 in the bank, and Cromwell asked him where he got it. Huntington said he borrowed it, but when asked of whom he borrowed it he could not remember, and said that it was none of their business, anyway. He was also unable to say of whom he got the money to pay back the loan. Up to that time I had had the most implicit confidence in Huntington's honesty, but I must confess his evasive answers made me doubtful of it. "I saw that something unpleasant was about to occur and got up to leave the room. Just as I got up Huntington did like wise. He passed behind Hayden, and I supposed he was going to get a drink at the water tank. There was nothing in his actions that indicated nervousness or excitement. I was about half way between my chair and the door when I heard a pistol shot, and looking around I saw Huntington standing between Cromwell and Hayden, and a little behind both, with his revolver pointed at the former. I hurried out of the private office and as I went I heard several more shots fired. Iran out and gave the alarm, and when several of us went into the private office we found Huntington lying on the floor with blood streaming from a wound in the back of his head and the two other men suffering from the effects of his deadly aim. "We have always considered John an honest young man, and if there was any weak point in his character it was a little tendency to extravagance. Of course the amount he was in the habit of spending would not have been extravagant to a man of means, but was rather more than a young man ought to spend who draws only $45 a month."

Hayden, one of the wounded men, in conversation about the affair, said: "We had only been talking a few minutes and no c.ccusatic^. b^en maHel But the questions we had been asking were very pointed and were easily taken by him as leading up to a direct charge of theft. At times he had talked loudly and in a somewhat excited manner, but just before the shooting he cooled down, and we had not the slightest intimation of what he was about to do. He suddenly got up without any show of anger, and pulling out a revolver commenced firing, first at Cromwell, then at me. We had no weapons and were not prepared to defend ourselves, nor isjit likely we should have thought of doing so even if we had been armed, the shooting was done so rapidly, and it was all over so soon."

T. N. Hayden resides at 5545 Monroe street with his wife and one son, 20 years of age. The first news Mrs. Hayden received of the shooting was at 5 o'clock in the afternoon when a telegram was received from her husband telling her not to worry if she heard anything about the tragedy as he was all'right. Hayden has lived in Chicago for many years. His father is general traveling auditor of the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern road. Hayden was for some years assistant genial traveling auditor of the same line.

PRESIDENTIAL OUTING.

Cleveland Will Spend a Few Days Hunting on the Atlantic Coast. WASHINGTON, Deo. 17. President

Cleveland, accompaneid by Dr. O'Reily, Captain R. D. Evans and Mr. Charles Jefferson, left Washington yesterday evening on an Atlantic coast line train for a hunting trip on the coast of South Carolina.

The town of Georgeto wn is the destination of the presidential party. It is a small town on the coast north of Charleston and at the head of the bay into which the Great Pedee river empties. Fine duck hunting is afforded there and a few deer are occasionally shot. The trip has been in contemplation since early fall, and is taken at this time in the hope that the outing will benefit the president and eradicate the remnant of his rheumatism, which still lingers with him. The party will return in about a week.

It Will Create a Grand Bush. ARMOUR, S. D., Dec. 17.—Informa­

tion has been received here from Washington confirming previous reports that the Yankton reservation would not be opened for settlement until next March or April. The reservation contains over 200,000 acres of land, about 125,000 of which will be thrown open to settlement, the rest being allotted to the Indians. It is thought there will be a grand rush for land when it is opened, as the bulk of it will make excellent farming land.

Freight Trains Crash Together. HOUSTON, Dec. 17.—During a dense

fog yesterday morning two heavy freight trains crashed into each other on the long bridge of the Southern Pacific railroad. Fireman Clements and Conductor Heard were badly cut and bruised, the former fatally. Just after the wreck Peter Carroll, foreman of the bridge and building department, fell from the bridge and was fatally wounded.

Attempt to Wreck a Train. UPPER SANDUSKY, O., Dec. 17.—An

attempt was made early yesterday morning to wreck the New York and Chicago limited train on the Pennsylvania railroad by pulling the spikes from the switch and blowing the light out.

LABOR LEADERS

American Federation of Labor Elect Officers.

M'BRIDE SUCCEEDS G0MPERS.

A Buckeye Man Gets a Great Honor—The Vote Stood: McBride, 1,163 Goinpers, 937—Indianapolis Is Made the Headquarters, and New York Gets the Convention in 1895.

DENVER, Dec. 18.—The first matter to come before the Federation of Labor was the selection of place for headquarters, the convention having decided to remove the same from New York city. The cities of Washington, Brooklyn, Detroit and Indianapolis were placed in nomination. Indianapolis was selected by a majority vote. The result stood: Indianapolis, 1290 Washington. 92i.

The election of officers was the next order of business. Mr. Samuel Goinpers of New York and Mr. John McBride of Columbus, president of the United Mine Workers', were placed in nomination. The vote stood: McBride, 1,162 Gompers, 937.

Vice presidents were elected as follows: First, P. J. McGuire, Philadelphia second, James Duncan, Baltimore third, Roady Kenehan, Denver fourth, T. J. Elderkin, Chicago.

For secretary four candidates were in the field: A. McCraith of Boston, James J. Linehan of Chicago, J. Malilon Barnes of Philadelphia, and R. H. Metcalf of Cleveland. The second ballot resulted: McCraith, l,09ti Linehan, 548 Barnes, 391. The election of McCraith was made unanimous.

Mr. John B. Lennan of New York was the unanimous choice of the convention for she office of treasurer.

The place of next meeting of the federation, New York and St. Louis was placed in nomination. The result was: New York, 1,335 St. Louis, 558.

Delegate Lennon moved that two fraternal delegates be sent to the British trades congress to be held in Cardiff, Wales. It was carried and Samuel Gompers and P. J. McGuire were selected.

The special committee appointed to draft resolutions on the McGuire seamen's rights bill, now before congress, reported resolutions providing that a committee of three, one of whom should be a member of the Seamen's union, to go to Washington as a lobby asking John Burns to give the matter attention in his meetings in America urging local unions to call upon their congressman to favor the bill. The report was agreed to.

The committee on resolutions continued its report. A resolution was agreed to appropriating $250 to reimburse the metal workers of Illinois for the expense of carrying a suit to the supreme court to prevent contract convict labor. A resolution was adopted against the Baltimore currency plan, as was one opposed to ''sweatshops," aud recommending laws to abolish them providing for engrossed resolutions of esteem to be presented to John Burns and Richard Holmes, the English fraternal delegates opposing an alleged movement to secure an extension of the maritime employment laws to cover railroad aud other contracts on land favoring an eight-hour day favoring the liberation of Hugh Dempsey, now in the Pennsylvania penitentiary on account of his connection with the Homestead strike, and alleging' that some of the prosecuting witnesses had since acknowledged that ho was bribed providing for a committee to work for a direct legislation by means of the referendum in each state demanding a national law providing that no bonds be issued without a special law to be originated iu the lower house of congress.

A resolution criticising the report of the national strike commission and favoring the government ownership of railroads was reported unfavorably by the committee, but was referred again to the legislative council.

The following telegram from Presi-dent-elect McBride was read before the convention: "Please thank the delegates in my name for the high honor they have conferred upon me and assure them I shall aim to do my duty faithfully and fearlessly and hope to be able to reflect credit upon my administration aud upon the American Federation of Labor."

After other committee reports of minor importance, the convention adjourned at 0 o'clock.

Mr. McBride Surprised.

COLUMBUS, O., Dec. 18.—The news of his election was first taken to Mr. McBride by a representative of the Columbus Dispatch. Mr. McBride is slowly recovering from the effects of a bad case of nicotine poisoning. He was so much surprised as to be inclined at first to doubt the statement, but upon being assured of the fact, appeared pleased at the result, but not inclined to talk on the subject.

John McBride is one of the best known labor leaders in tho country, and one of the ablest advocates of the cause of toil in the land. He is thorough in his investigation of facts and convincing in his logic while presenting them on an occasion when their influence is to be rolied upon.

He is a self-made man having educated himself in the main by studying nights after mining coal during the daytime.

He represented Stark county in the Ohio house of representatives in 1885-6. He was nominated for secretary of state on the Democratic ticket in 1887, but was defeated by the late General James S. Robinson. After that he organized and became the president of the National Progressive union, which became a powerful miners' organization. Afctout four years ago this organization and the miners' division of the Knights of Labor were amalgamated under the name of the United Mine Workers of America, of which McBride is now president.

Mr. McBride is a widower, about 45 years old, his wife having died about two years ago. He is the father of several children. His legal residence is at •Massillon, O., but he spends the most of his time in Columbus, where is located the headquarters .of the United Mine Workers.

Pacing Race Set For Thursday. KANSAS CITY, Dec. 18.—The Ryland T-Joe Patouen race, which was post­

VESSELS WRECKED. ~J

Results of the Recent Gale Off Cape Flattery. SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 18.—That the

•team colliers Montserrat and Keweenaw have been lost at sea with all on board is now considered almost a certainty. The Montserrat from Nanaimo and the Keweenaw from Comox, B. C., are both seven days overdue at this port. For several days tugs and coasting steamers all along the northern coast have kept a sharp lookout, but no tidings of either steamer have been received. Both vessels were heavily loaded and the prevailing opinion is that they were lost almost together in the terrific gale that raged of Cape Flattery the night they put to sea. The Montserrat, Captain Blackburn, carried a crew of 20 men, and the Keweenaw, Captain Jenkins, carried a crew of 30 men.

Anxiety is also felt for tho barks Germania and Columbia. The Germania, laden with coal, has been out 15 days, and the Columbia, with a cargo of lumber, sailed from Port Blakeley 13 days ago. However, sailing passages of 14 and 16 days are of frequent occurrence, and but for the storm which the vessels must have encountered no fear would be felt for tlieir safety.

From reports received to date it is positively known that at least four vessels were wrecked during the gale. The British Scotish Dales was dismantled off Cape Flattery, but was picked up by a steamer and towed into Port Townsend. The bark John Wooster was lost off Gray's harbor on the Washington soast. The schooner Garcia was wrecked off Tillamook rock. Her crew of 16 men is still missing. The schooner W. T. Beebe was wrecked in the breakers in an attempt to cross the San Francisco bar. All the steamers and sailing craft that have reached port since the storm report terrible experiences in the gale, which prevailed all along the coast north of San Francisco.

HOT ~MONEY IN MOULDS.

Counterfeiters Caught Dead to Rights at Tiffin, O. TIFFIN, O., Dec. 18.—William Straus-

baugh and John and William Bowers were arrested yesterday by Deputy United States Marshal Wells of Kenton, Marshal Frick of this city and other Kenton and Tiffin officers, on the charge of counterfeiting. The Bowers boys, who formerly resided in Kenton, visited that city a few weeks ago, and it is charged "shoved" a large amount of "queer" and the Kenton officials came here to make the arrest on suspicion.

Marshal Frick, when told of their business here, replied that he had been watching a young man named Strausbaugli, son of ex-Councilman George Strausbaugh, for three weeks, and was satisfied tliat he was manufacturing money. Strausbaugh was arrested while in the act of casting quarters in a plaster of paris die, on the kitchen stove, at his father's home, on Wentz street. The die was still hot, and the spurious coin was still too hot to be removed when the officers came in on him.

Dies for making dollars, halves, quarters and dimes were found, and a large amount of the bogus stuff was found in the possession of the three men. Strausbaugh, who is a plasterer by trade, had a lot of excellent dies, but the material is nothing but babbett metal, and the coin is a poor imitation, which he was disposing of at the uniform rate of 10 cents on the dollar.

An Imbcolle Pardoned.

COLUMBUS, O., Dec. 18.—Governor McKinley yesterday issued a pardon to Allen McGhee, who was sentenced early this year to serve a four years' sentence for manslaughter from Scioto county. McGhee is an absolute imbecile, wholly irresponsible, who did not really know where he was. The man whom he was charged with killing, repeatedly said before bis death that another person committed the crime, and it is a very great wonder that the Scioto county authorities could, under the circumstances, find him guilty. The matters of fees figured to some extent.

Three People Burned to Death. GARDINER, Me., Dec. 18.—Amos Mar­

tin's house on Windsor street was destroyed by fire yerterday and three inmates were burned to death. Mrs. William Ready, Millie Folsom, aged 7, and George Folsom, aged 4, were the victims. The little girl was rescued from the burning house by Frank Greenleaf, a neighbor, but died before medical assistance could be summoned. It is thought the woman, while intoxicated, upset a lamp.

Killed by Cars.

XENIA, O., Dec. 18.—Yesterday morning the passenger train on the Pennsylvania going west at 8:10 struck Mr. George Greenlease at Lucas crossing, three miles from this city, killing him instantly. The body was carried nearly a quarter of a mile on the pilot. A German, who was with Greenlease was uninjured. The horse was killed and buggy demolished.

Earthquake Felt in New York. ALBANY, N. Y., Dec. 18.—Telephonic

communication from Coeyman's, 12 miles south of this city, tells of a shock of earthquake being felt in the highlands in that vicinity at 3 o'clock yesterday morning. Windows were shaken and doors rattled, but no damage is reported.

Two Children Burned to Death. CLEVELAND, Dec. 18.—Tho home of

Rev. Solomon Beckerman of 1301 Cass avenue caught fire at 1 o'clock yesterday morning. His two little daughters, aged 7 and 11 years, were burned to death. The other members of the family had great difficulty in escaping.

Married His Stenographer.

MOUNT VERNON, O., Dec. 18.—Tho many friends of Frank V. Owen, author of the Owen bill, were surprised to learn that he was quietly married to his stenographer, Miss Bessie M. Johnson. He was recently granted a divorce from bis former wife.

Both Got Out Safely.
