Legal Iusanity-A Man Kills His
Second w lie.

The Philadelphia Press of Friday
saws: By midnight mail, last night,
FROM Pottstown, Pennsylvania, ter
rible story reached us. 1t tells Of the
murder of four women by one man, not
all at the Same time, not at one butch
cry, like that of Probst, the murder OF
the Peightal family, near Huntingdon,
but at four Successive periods-years
elapsing between each. This man has
been declared insane by the laws Of his
country. He has suffered for none of
the terrible crimes. Yesterday dis
patch appeared in the Press, dated
Chicago, December 81, setting forth
that John Hickman, living near Chand-
leTville, Illinois, had murdered his wife
on Sunday night By cutting her throat.
1t closed with the words, This is the
second wife Hickman has killed. lie
was acquitted OF the fret murder on
the plea of insanity. We SHALL take

fourth murder. \ Mrs. BTownback

US whether the assassin has been arrest
ed for his last murder. If insane, it is
clearly more than wrong that such a
fend should be allowed his liberty.
A special despatch in the Chicago
Tribune gives the following details OF
Hiekman's last crime: A horrible muir
der was perpetrated 81 ChandlerylIi1,
Cass county, on Monday. John Hick-
man, the perpetrator OF the horrible
deed, had some words with his wife.
His son heard the dispute, bat thought
it nothing serious; left his mother and
step-fatler talking, and went to the
barn. In few minutes he heard his
mother shrek, and ran II tho house,
where he found his mother in . dying
condition. The ruilian had struck her
to the ground and cut her throat. She
died III n few minutes. This is the
second wife this man has murdered,
About seven years ago he had some little
disagreement with his wife, and muir
