THE OHIO DEMOCRACY

Strcngly Indorses the Present National Administration, .And ReOSTtminate Hoadly for nfr8i and Varwlck for Lieutenant Guver. . mr, in Their State Courention at Col um Tns, Yesterday. Count n , )., Augirst 29. - The DemjCHTitic Convention was late.ia assembling this it örnijif , owing to the lirriculty in getting seats for delegates and visitors. The sub-Coni-mittee on Ke-ohitions, appointed Irst eve ning, remained in session mntil five o'clock this morning, and then being Vuable to ajjee, turned the subject over t the full con.mittf which wast;'ll in serjn at ten 'clock. It will probably not be ready to retort bfure noon. The other 'proceedings; f romme to be of routine nature and will readily disposed of. The Convention was called to order a 10:15 by I. J. Cogan, Chairmac of the State 'ntral -Committee, and the Committee on IV rminent Organization reported Hon. John Jollet, f Cincinnati, for evmanent Chairman, njd Hon. George W. Hull, of Lima, 1-ermaient Secretary. Tle principal feature of the short speerh jnar? by Mt. FYdlett, the -Chairman, was a s-trtMK' indorseaient of the present National administration, and romp limenting the convention on the favorable auspices usder wb?ch it had met, with tbe National Gorernnsot iJt-inoeratic and the State promisingly . The Committee on' Credentials repcrted alible legations full and no contests. A littie scene was created in the convention at this point by the introduction of W. A 31 ilea, of Columbus, a member of the committee apiointed at the late meeting of tlie Suite Voters' Union to memorialize the Xtate Conventions of the two parties for a resubmission of the second amendment to a vote of the people. Hon. Mills Gar.lner, James McVay and other prominent members )f the Voters' Pnion were present as members of the committee. The report asked a resubmission of the second amendment closing: saloons on - Sunday and a general remedy of existing evils from the drink traffic. A great uproar was created in the convention bv a glass of water being handed to Miles while reading the rej-ort. It was referred to tbe Committee on- .Resolutions under the Toles. The Committee on Resolutions not heing ready to rejort, the convention proceeded to the nomination of a candidate for Governor. Congressman George W. Geddes was first to appearand offered the name of Governor lloadly in quite a lengthy sjieech, recounting Lis brilliant record as (iovemor and his administration, and also paying high compliments to Judge Allen O. Thurman, and -announcing that he could not allow the use of Lis name before the convention. Mr. Geddes concluded his eloquent effort by moving a suspension of the rules and the nomination of Hoadly by acclamation. This was received with long applause and no word of objection was heard to the motion. General Mit had Ityan, of Cincinnati, followed, seconding tlie motion and defending the Governor at length against charges that lie had made mistakes. When the motion was put tlie voice was unanimous and enthusiastic, with tlie exception of .a few voices from the Hamilton County delegation. After a committee had leen appointed to r- wait oir-ovemoT- Huadly and bring him before the convention, W. X. Marquis, of Logan County, in a short speech, prented the name of John G. Warwick, of Massilon, for renoniination for Lieutenant Governor. The motion was immediately put and earned unanimously amid great applause. Before proceeding further with nominations. Governor Hoadly was introduced amid much enthusiasm, and explained why he had not been an outsjoken candidate for the nomination. The party had brought him through in an ambulance, without much cflort on his part and he thought lie had no right to claim the nomination under the rules precedent. The convention being free to all without asking, he could not help rcsondir.g to the call, and with better health would hope even better results in discharging his trust. Jle demanded a most -searching criti- . cum in all official act. He indorsed the werk of the last Legislature, saying nothing ., was done by it which Judge Foraker would have dared to veto if he had the power, lie thought Foraker, instead of rinding fault with the present -administration, should be defending the memory of Rutherford I. Hayes ar.d the Legislature which robbed Cincinnati of i'oeal self-.governnient. Governor Hoadly defined himself as against prohibition, and did not believe that regulation and taxation ere eternal. Taxation was odious to him. After the Governor had concluded his fpeech, on motion of the Hamilton County contingent, which had objected to his ref nomination, three cheers were given. ; The names f Hon. D. Martin, of Fairfield f ounty, and Judge W. J. Gilmore, of Frankiin, were presented- for nomination for Sufirenoe Judge, long term. Ik' fore tlie call of counties was completed the name of Gilmore was witlidrawn and Martin's name made unanimous and by acclamation. The following platform was adopted: THE PLATFORM..

An Enoch Artlen Trie to Remarry Wife No. 1 After Twenty Year. Hinting rON, Fa., August -2. John Gilbert, who in IxV) married Miss Elizabeth Martin, and who abandoned his young wife and child in about a year afterward, remainiug In unexplained ab sence for twenty years, recently returned M this place and so'itht out his wife of the long apo and endeavored to renew his attachment to her. she in the meauthne had uiurried Christian Coletock, who died two years airo and bequeathed to her a nice little property on which he was livins iu eue. she received him eoldlv and refused to Lave anything to do with him. Xow it Is developed that he has been married elsewhere In his absence, and that be hunted up his rirt wife oiilr to uain the wealth that had beeu left her by Mr.Volestock. Gillert was a private in Company G, One Hun dred and rorty-eigiuh rennsyivauia oiuntevrs, during the war. and his exposure has been brviicht about through hi owu cR'ort to gain admission in the Huntingdon a.

He was frequently confined in jail lor all sort of felonies. Letters have also been received here from Gilbert's second wife, who resides at s-priusrield, and who. before her marriage, was Hattie Riley. Mie says that in 177 he came to Hprinirheld and married her, then nineteen years old. He claimed to lie a harness-maker and to be worth sl.UK). After fhe marriage he persuaded her to fell the comfortable home which belonged to her an.l he squandered the proceeds, she lias just heard of his first marriage, and is now on her way Last to prosecute her husband for bigamy. ButasJfrs. h'lixabeth Martin Gilbert procured a divorce rive years after her husband abandoned her, Mrs. Hattie Riley Gilbert's marring in ls77 is perfectly valid, and no indictment for bigamy can be brought iiuainst the unprincipled deceiver. A LETTER TO KEILY. Itisliop Keane', of the Dioceie of Richmond, Letter Relative to His Treatment. - Richmond, Va., August Zl. Right Rev. Bishop John J. Keane, of the diocese of Richmond, recently wrote a letter to Hon. A. M. Keily ia relation to what he terms the "shameful persecution" that gentleman Is suflerinc. The letter is written from M. Paul, M inn., the Hishop being at present in the jar West conducting a series of spiritual retreats for the clergy. The Bishop says: "I allude to the treatment inflicted on you "as an insult not only to one of the most highly and deservedly esteemed Catholics of the diocese- of Richmond, and one of the most honored citizens of Virginia, but through him to all his fellow Catholics and fellow citizens in this countrv and to the Holy Lather himself ; but in this iusult to you I can see no humiliation save to those who have offered it. Is was an honor to be unwelcome by a ttoverntnent whose whole course has beeu marked b injustice and ira-ligrion, and the Government ol Austria, having by its recent act made itself guilty and a partner in the shame, has thereby made itself incapable of humiliating you. While I have regretted the attacks made lipon you by part of the daily press, still that need not concern us much, as nothing better was to be expected from men partisan and interested sources. But 1 have especially deplored the criticisms passed upon you by some Catholic scribblers who, iu their aeal to appear clever and ultraorthodox, have overlooked the fact that the cause for which you were sufiering was the refutation m well as the condemnation and shame of their strictures. But it is a comfort to kuow that the utterances of those whollv unau-' thorized critics have absolutely no weight bevuuii the infinitesimal weight of the individuals theinKdvcs. I am confident that all Catholics w hose opinion you would esteem honor you for the persecution you have suncred for tru'th aud justice's sake. Your position is indeed an embarrassing one, with a family to provide for, and your business transferred to others, but surely it can not be that our Government, whose well-meant action has placed you in this embarrassment will leave you in it, or fail to provide that you be in no wuy the loser." A MANIAC IN THE GIRLS' ROOM. Two Sisters Awake and See Ulm Crouching The Awful Struggle. Fottstown, August 22. Misses Lucy and Patience Hodgson, daughter of I Ulbert H. llodxson, a reputable fanner living near New London, had a terrible Experience with a maniac who got Into their bedroom last night. The family occupy a country residence, and the youug ladies retired early, leaving open their bedroom w indow, w hich overlooks a wide veranda. Toward midnight Miss i'hoebe Hodgson suddenly awoke and saw some oue crouching on all fours in front of the bed. She feigned sleep, and the man rose to his feet, uttering unearthly sounds. He pinched her limbs aud tore tbe bedclothes from off the girls, who were now both awake. Their assailant was W illiam J'earce, a maniac in the family of a neighbor, who had escaped from his kecrer during the night and made his wav to the bedroom by way of the open window. The girls, now thoroughly frightened. Jumped out of bed. The maniac, with his eye all aglow with an unnatunil fire, darted after them, while they screamed for help. Round and round the room they ran, the mauiac after them, and sometimes catching them, when they again tore away from him. The father, who had been ularmed by the noise, bnrt in the door and appeared with a livht. l he iiutniae tlieu attacked iiiin. and a lin-is-ratc struggle euMici. fr. llodgou was thrown down and received terrible punishment. Neighbors who bad leen aronsod put in an appearance and helped to secure the maniac. It required four men to bind him with ropes, Tbe young ladies' bedroom wa a complete wreck. carpets bein? torn up and broken furniture laying about in great confusion. Mortally Wounded. Washisotox, Ind., August 2i. On Saturday night, during an altercation, Walter Meredith shot Daniel Fogous in the left breast, inflicting a mortal wound.

THE ADMINISTRATION.

Its Pciicy Afectirg the Price cf Real Estate in Washington. A Lonesome riace at the Present SeaonDelightful Weather, but There I Something, Somehow, Somewhere Wanting to Make It Enjoyable. Special to the Sentinel. Washington, August 22. It is absurd to write that the distinctive policy of the present administration Is likely to affect the price of reaj estate. This, however, is true. The strained and unnatural conditions of the departments influence the sales. Republican clerks and the heads of divisions, feeling insecure in their positions, are not buying, and the Democrats are not buying, for the reason that there are not enough of them here. As sckki as it becomes definitely known that the Republicans will not have to go, that the system of continuing and promoting them is not a catch, the sale of Washington real estate for small homes will proceed. For the city, the melancholy days have come; the saddest of the year. , At no other season is Washington so lonesome. The knowledge that the Government Is in the woods and at Its usual haunts, as the French say, not visible, keep tiie ofiice seekers away. The absence of the President i IKrhap the Inrges-t cause of the vast unbroken dullness, of which the local pajsTs and the correspondents are complaining. But siuce sprin quickened the gardens and the parks into full bloom, tbe best assorted sto k of delightful weather is now prevailing. Moistened with a soobing rain at least twice a week, so generous yet so delicate that no weather prophet can complain, there is au exquisite touch of Indian summer iu the climate. The fellows who struggled through Hnd between the departments during the months of Julv and August will remember those streets. now cool and comfortable, with a feeling of agony. Xow that Bayles W". Hanna is far out on the g!nd waters of the bright blue sea, I will tell whut I have lately learned. In no other Minister yet appointed has the administration so much confidence. Iu the manner that he has managed his ovwi case it is detected that senator Voorhees was correct when he assured the appointing power that there was no better Ministerial talent iu the countrv. "As long as he was the attorney of the Vandiilia Railroad he never had any cases to speak of," some envious fellow, turned critic, has irittt-n. An old railroad hiurver tells in thiit in avoiding lawsuits the genius ol a railroad lawyer is disclosed. In that Bayless . Hanna. perhaps eclipsed any other railroad attorney Indiana ever prouueea. jap ii'm-ks. Indiana I'ost masters Appointed-Secretary . Laiuar Other Items. Special to the Sentinel. Washington, August 22.

Harry Temple, of Fort Wayne, long a clerk In the Third Auditor's office, left" this city this afternoon for reasons. He says the next administration will be Republican and that he will return. He rather likes the town. MOVEMENTS IN AFRICA. An Extraordinary Movement Among the Mohammedans of the Xigritian Regions From Tiinbuctoo to the West Coast. Washinoton, August 24. Secretary of tate Bayard is in receipt of a dispatch from Sierra Leone, giving accounts of the movements of an army of 100,000 men in the interior of Africa. The despatch is dated July 10 last, and was sent by United States Consul Lewis. Mr. Lewis says: I have tho honor to bring to the notice of the IK-1 .art men t of State tlie met of au extraordinary iflovemeu: among the Mohammedans of the Xigntian regions extending from Timbuctoo to the West Coast. It appears that iu 1-sso a Mandingo named SaniiuTu, of extraordinary intelligence and energy, conceived the idea that he was called of God to wage a w ar forjthe suppression of paganism, and that tbe opening of the roads to the coast, which in certain districts have been for generations subjected to excessive blackmail, and to the plundering of vagabond tribes during the last five years, he has collected an army consisting of foot and horse, of about 100.0UO men. Mohammedan youth, wherever he goes, tiock to his standard, anxious not only to secure the reward in the hereafter, promised to those who right for their religion, out to carry off the rich spoils of time which these expeditions that battle for the faith are sure to win. It is said that ranuilu's amir Is divided into three portions, One is oierathig near the headwaters of the Niger. This iortiou recently drove certain French troops from the gold regions of Bourse, which they had taken possessiou of, and are now besicging'Bammaks, a large town on the Niger, occupied about three years ago by the French, who have erected fortifications there. Another portion of the artnv is operating in the regions east of Sileria, aud by suppressing the disturbing elements. unfettering trade and introducing a knowledge of religion and letters, is in one sense opening tlie way for negro emigrants of intelligence and energy from America to push out from the African-American Republic to the healthy and fertile regions of the interior. Iu another sense it is forestalling the whole region for Mohnmmedism and making it diflicult, if not impossible, if, indeed It is desirable", to convert thut country to the faith imported from America by the immigrants. The third portion of the army is approaching the coast a few miles northwest of Sierre Leone. It has secured the submisniou by force or volnntary surrender, of all the triiies on the way for "oo miles back. The largest and most important Pagan Kingdom on the fite of the Niger was Cool i inn, of which Talaba. a large commercial city, was the Capital. For the last sixty years the lulah Mohammedans have been trying by diplomacy and by arms to subdue this city to the faith, but it has always successfully resix'ted both diplomat aud warrior. Last year Samudu's army, in overwhelming numbers surrouuded it, and called upon the King to surrender and profess Islamism. This he refused to do. The town was then invested, ami after a terrible siege of five months, the King assembled the royal family and princlpal chiefs iu his powder house, and Informed them that he could hold out no longer, as his resources were exhausted, but havln? for more than J00 years belonged to the ruling element, he was determined for himself and family to die rather than come under Mohammedan rule. He gave the chiefs their choice, either to die with him or go out of the town and give themselves up to the enemy. They decided to die with him. Thev then set fire to the powder and they were all blown up. Thus ended the Soolima power, which for more than seven generations had influenced the trade and politics of extensive districts, and had commanded the principal highways of the coast. Another very important achievement of this army is the destruction of the Hooloo powers, n irresponsible organization, which for thirty years has been a source of annoyance and loss to caravans passing from the 'interior to the coast. Samndu gave orders to attack them in their mountain strongholds, which nntil then had proved inaccesible to the neighboring forces. They were surprised. Their chief, Abal, was captured and decapitated, and his arms and legs severed from the trunk, were sent to the various

countries w here the inhabitant hid suffered from his depredations and murderous attacks. The HidK8 are described as renegade fulahs in rebellion against the King of Timbuctoo. The roads have now been cleared of these thieves and murderers, so that an unprotected child or female may travel ia safety all through that district. These operations will not be without a salutary ctlect on American commerce, for there is iu that country au increasing demand for American profiuctions. and many of the nitidis produced tiy the ficoplc are valuable iu Amerit:n trade, samudu s army is now only a few miles from the coast northwest of Sierre I-eone. It is said to be their pnrjxise now to ileal with tbe Simueh and shcrbro countries, whose constant wars keep the maritime regions in such a stat? of ferment that often niter tlie caravans have struggled through obstructions for hundreds of miles they find their greatest difficulty among the cost tribes, and often fidl victims" to the latter.

A HARTFORD CITY SCANDAL. Rev. Jesse Mason Sued for 93,000 Damages for Alienating the AlVections of-Mrs. Bennett. Special to the Sentinel. IIaktkokd City, August 21. Our court records bear the ear marks of family broils and domestic infelicity until forbearance has ceased to be virtuous, and the bonds of matrimonial alliance are sought to be sundered, evidencing the fact that the Lord had never bound tbeni together. Among the applicants is one John P. Hennett who asks to be separated from Ida Kennett, l is wife, for abandonment, she having "gone with a handsome man." Said ''handsome man" in this case, as of frequent occurrence, being one of the disciples of the Itedeemer who stands uron the walls of Zion to proclaim the everlasting Gospel, and admonishing the poor erring mortal that "tins is the way, walk ye in it." Said pulpit pounder is fa miliarly known as Rev. Jesse Mason, and he is a zealous and earnest advocate of morahtv of the "hard shell variety." Jesse is a widower of scveial months' duration, and, longing for tlie congenial associations of a member of the feminine ponder, sought and obtained, in the person of Mrs. Ida LJennetjt, the lawful wife of John P., tlie desire oj nis heart. He, by overpcrsuasion ami arts oLly known to the" vender of gospel instruction, did, in an unlawful and unchristian-like manner. take unto himself the fair Ida aforesaid, and to-day she shares his heart and home, "con tent to administer to all Ins wants and sweet Iv console the Itev. Jesse in his hours of sa,l elest bereavement." In consideration of said invasion of his martial claim by the Uev. Jesse, John P. has sought to obtain the usual sum of s.,000 damages for the unlawful taking of his goods and chattels. Kev. Jesse has been a dispenser of the gospel in copious quantities for several years, and his voice Jesse has a voice resembling a "steam caliope," each Sabbath awakening the denizens for many miles around with its warning notes of approaching judgment and the great conflagration that shall try men's soules, ''when the wicked shall burn as dry stubble." John F. has a home surrounded with comfort and luxury, but is now rendered desolate bv the absence of his w ife, who lias left all and followed the meek and lovely Jesse, and will never more return to gladden the heart and home of the sorrowing aihI disconsolate John P., but continue to minister to the bereavedJesstj's solace, etc., while the Itev. Jesse will endeavor to spread Scriptural holiness and dijuse the everlasting fiospel, ogive saints an4 sinners their position in due season, I The Other Side-The Wife's Siory. Special to the Sentinel. Kxu.htstowx, Ind., August fl. sfcFee's wife states that all of the accounts that have been sent from this place regarding her husband have been incorrect and highly colored to his prejudice. She states that all that he elid was to cheer for Cleveland and that raised the ire of Antrim, the Republican Marshal, who threatened his arrest just before he went to the restaurant. After he came out of the restaurant, tlie Marshal followed after him. McFee said he intended no harm but thought he had a right to cheer for Cleveland and he "hollowed" aain. The Marshal then arrested him and as he took him to jail, McPee remonstrated with him, begging him not to put him in jail, but asked for an immediate trial and that he was willincr to pay a line if he had done any wrong. The Marshal would not listen to him and insisted on jailing him. As he was about to put him into thejail, McFee lgan to beg again, drawing back somewhat to further remonstrate, w hen the Marshal commenced rounding him viciously over the head with Iiis mace. It was then that McPee fired his pistol, not intending to shoot Antrim, but trying to intimidate him. As the last shot was being fired the Marshal struck Mc Fee's arm in such a way as to turn the ball to his breast. Mrs. McFee says the wound is not a dangerous one, and that her husband ran away fearing the excitement and prejudice of the icople. She says he is willing to stand a fair trial, but does not believe he can get it here, and thinks it hard that he is being hounded down by forty or fifty negroes and white Republicans, more on account of his jolities than any real harm done by him. while his family, consisting of a wife and two little boys, need his attention at home. She thinks there is more spite work at bottom than anything else. Terrible Cutting Affray. East Saginaw, Mich., August 21. A terrible cutting affray occurred at Freeland, ten miles north of this city, last night, by which a farmer named Benjamin Ladgley will lose his life. Mrs. Radgley was accused by a neighboring farmer, a Pole named Henry Bernsky, of slandering him, and the case was tried in the Court of Justice Forrest, of this tit, yesterday, resulting in Mrs. lkidgley's discharge. Both farmers started for home in a wagon last night, and in the village of Freeland they exchanged words. Finally they quarrelled. In the fight the Pole drew a knife and cut Badgley in a terrible manner. One cut extended across the breast and penetrated to the lungs, another laid the right arm open to the bone from the shoulder to the wrist, another was across the back, cutting both kidneys. Sixteen cuts were received in all, and the wounded man can not possibly Y.ji. The Pole then tied, and was not eaptuied. The weapon could not be found. 'I here is great excitement in Preeland, and talk of lynching. Search is being made for Bernsky. Seriously Mabbed. Special to the SentineL Mahion, Ind., August 21. Yesterday, about rive miles west of this city, a difficulty occurred between Nathanial F.

Various Reports and Views on the Olivier Pain Case. Paris, August 24. Henri Kochefort sys that the English dispatches put forth to falsify his statement that Olivier Pain had a price set on his hexd, and was executed by order of the English officials in the Soudan, are a tissue of lies, and he demands a Government inquiry.

The fact that the amount of 'wheat in sight at the present time is over 42,OOO.vXX) bushels, as against 17,000,000 bushels at this date a year ago, while values now range considerably higher, seems to have dawned upon the speculative trade with overwhelming force, and a big ' ' nble has been the result- During the early days of the week values fell ns though the whole 1",UOO,000 bushels in store here had been thrown into the pit and bottom appeared asfaroffas when October left tMe. Since the big holders here and at New York let go, the buying has been scattered and not of a character to afford much supjiort, so that it was well toward the finish before the market made any pretense of righting itself. Then it became known that exporters were taking hold fairly well, several good-sized parcels being picked up by them, both here, at liuluih, and at the seaboard. This, coupled with a decrease in the amount on passage, and the fact that cables continued firm in the face of such decided weakness on this tide frightened some of the big sellers w ho had been ridiug the market so gleefully, and lister i: Co., Schwartet Dnpce, "Jack" Cudahy and others were moved to take in their lines, so that the finish is fairly strong. However, w ith the exception of the support given by country sjeculators, w ho not having been badly caught on the break, are now buying ou the natural reaction theory, purchases have been almost wholly to cover "shorts." The bulls hick leaders. Its strong backing seems entirely gone. Two months ago September wheat so'ld at Wie, and, counting carrying charges, it has fallen about Pie. This has terribly demoralized the majority of holder, although" one or two strong men still cling to their grain Fairbanks, who declares that he will stay until the S'iOO.OOU loss his trades now show is wiped out, being a prominent example. That the market is a short" one is evident from the readiness with which it resionds to even moderate buying, but an imjending early and heavy movement from the spring wheat belt takes the'stareh out of those who are inclined to favor the long side. Already dealers talk of tW,(X,000 bushels as likely to be reached by the visible supply within the next three months. To this is added talk of w heat out of conditiod and of tottering credits. On the other hand the market is now on an export basis. Kuroje will undoubtedly want large (quantities of American wheat, ami should values remain steady for a few days exporters may make quite a hole in our stocks. On this theory many conservative brokers, while bearish on the long run. are inclined to favor a temporary rally, esjiecialiy as latest reports say the Dakota crop is not coming up to the estimate. I'hil Armour," said the representative or McCorniiek, Kernnet k Co. to-night, "is not interested in wheat beyond earn ing charges, but he hes a large amount of pork which he would like to seiljatlhigher figures. Xow would auythinp le more natural than to suppose he may make use of his old trick of buying a few blocks of grain aud under cover of this market his product?" eats are ou the rampage and the little crowd who deal in them is ali torn up. It was supposed that when Mcueon h sold out his oats ia Juiy ne had ahaudoned the deal, but it now develops that IL M. Harvey, his brother-in-law, owns ail the cash oats kere besides some 4.ri0,Uu0 bushels of August which unwary shorts have sold him. Lively times are expected during the next ten days as the corner dtvelops and farmers must forward their grain to take advantage of it. Corn rules steady and firm without new features. Receipts are fair and shipments good. Traders are watching this market narrowly, but trade is light. "Pork ought to be a purchase now if there is any good iu it at all," remarked a provlsiou dealer this morning. Indeed the market does look cheap, now that it has broke successively on big stocks, big receipts of hogs, big corn crop aud reports of cholera. Young Girl's Rody Not Identified.

HANGED FOR MURDER.

Franz Josef Petmekey Suffers tue Extrem Penalty of the Law. The Law's Vict im Was a Finely Proportioned! Young Prussian Aged Twenty-four Years He Itroke Down in Itldding His Brothers Farewell. AuBfEX, N. Y., August 21, Franz Jo;cf Petmekey, this morning suffered the extreme penalty of the law for the murder of Mrs. Paulena Froitzheim, on June 1, 1S3. The crime was first discovered when the husband of the victim returned to his home after his day's labor, and found the mutilated corpso of his wife lying in a pool of blixd ujon tho floor. Her brains had been beaten out with the blunt end of a hatchet, the examining surgeon testifying that over twenty blow had been dealt with the weapon. The murderer was captured on the following day ii Albany. The trial lasted one week. . The prisoner admitted having killed the woman, and put in a plea cf self-defense. He claimed that she sought the interview and urged him to elope with her, but upon learning that he was alrea ly married, she Hew into a rage and drew a revolver ujori him. He defended himself with the hatchet. After the commission of the crime he rifled the house of everything in the shape of jewelry er money. The theory of the prosecution was that he went to the house merely for the puri-ose of robbery, but that upon being confronted by the woman he felt compelled to put her out of the way. He wa. originally sentenced to be hanged March 21, 14. but the law's delays have lengthened his lease of life until to-day. The prisoner' last days were passed quietly, he shunning all visitors and denying the consolations oi religion until the last. He was a handsome, finely proportioned Prussian, twenty-four years of age, and came to this country'wheii eighteen years old. He had deserted his wife, and his only kinsman on this side of the ocean was a half brother. His lat night was without incident, except that he broke down completely when he embraced his brother for a last farewell, and both sobbed convulsively. Rev. Father Ulrich prayed with him until 11 o'clock, w hen he retired to rest and slept sound! v. The tleath warrant was read in the cell at 10 o'clock, and shortly afterward the prisoner stood beneath the gallows, lie appeared unmoved when asked if he bad anything to say. Father Ulrich replied saying "the prisoner wished to confess that he was justly punished for the crime. He asked forgiveness of all whom he had scandalized or caused pain, and died willingly in the hope of salvation. The noose and black cap were then adjusted and at 10:2-' the trap fell. The neck was dislocated and at 10:4) the physicians pronounced him dead. Petniekey'left instructions as to the disposal of his 'body, and the burial took place in the Catholic Cemetery this afternoon. About 3u0 people witnessed the execution. A TERRE HAUTE SENSATION. The KUlest Daughter of tV. It. McKeeu Klopes With Iler Father's Horse Traiuer. Special to the SentineL Teree H.ute, August 20. This city has never, within the memory of the oldest inhabitant, received such a shaking up as it did this afternoon when the fact became public that Miss Anna McKeen, the eldest daughter of W. IL McKeen, President of the Yandalia Railroad, had eloped with her father's horse trainer, a young man named Y. L. Shuler, better known among his horse friends as "Tiny" Shuler. The facts, as near as they can be gathered at this hour, are as follows: For some time Shuler has been paying his addresses to Miss McKeen, and within the last few days confided to some friends his intention of eloping with her. He had charge of Mr. McKeen's horses, driving the well-known "Bay Henry," and followed the circuit last spring, and was with the trotters this week at Chicago. He telegraphed last evening to the' night clerk at the National Hotel that he would be down on the early morning train, which reaches here at 4:15 o'clock. Ho arrived on time, changed his clothing at the hotel, got Haskell's hack in front of the house, and drove to the young: lady's residence, which he entered. He and the hackman quietly carried out her trunk and placed it on the driver's seat, and Shuler and Miss McKeen then got into the carriage and were driven rapidly to the depot, where they took the south-bound S:30 train. Their tlestination is not knojvn, but it is presumed they were married at l'.vansville uon arrival there. It is said that they mailed a note, stating that they had ekied, to President McKeen, which he did not receive until 11 o'clock, on reaching his office. Miss McKeen is about twenty-five years old; Shuler is alout thirty, and is distantly related to the McKeens. It has been known for some time that they were quite intimate. A handsome personal appearance is not one of hhuler's attractions.; Miss McKecn's hand has been sought by a number of society young men, and at one time it was thought that she was to be married to a popular young member of an old family. Both the afternoon papers have got out extra editions, and the news is eagerly read. McFee or renders. Special to the SentineL Kniohtstowx. Ind., August 21. James Mason and C. G. Offutt, of Greenfield, presented themselves to Deputy Prosecutor Shelton this afternoon with the intelligence that they had been retained an attorneys for John McFee, who shot Marshal Antrim on Tuesday night, and that McFee had concluded to surrender. Constable Welch was. notified, and accompanied the aforesaid gentleman to the residence of Mrs. Wharton, McFee'a mother-in-law, who resides in the south part of town, where he was found and, surrendered. The fugitive was taken before" 'Squire Edwards, waived preliminary examination," and bail was fixed at $2,000. Failing to secure the sum, Welch accompanied him to the County Bastile. The feeling here is still very bitter against McFee, although Antrim is doing well, and his chances for recovery are growing brighter, McFee and his attorneys claim that he has not been oat of town since the shooting.
