A Clergyman's Wife Accused of
Murder.

The body Of a woman was found in an
unused railroad cut at Eureka, ILL.,, Sun
day. The face and neck having been
eaten by hogs, it was some time before
the remains were identified as those of
Mrs. Elizabeth Hedge, widow, who
lived mile from the scene of the muir
der. She was collector of funds for a
church, and had on Saturday about $3.50
in her possession. An examination
showed that she had been struck on the
temple with club, and her throat had
been cut. Pinned to her underclothing
was letter which tended to show a
criminal intimacy with the writer and
the deceased, but the Rev. Mr.. Work
man, Methodist minister, identifies the
letter as written by himself, though he
utterly denies such intimacy with the
woman. Mrs. Workman, wife of this
minister, is a violent woman, and she
was arrested on suspicion that she had
committed the crime through jealousy.
When brought before coroner's jury
she tainted, and went from one fainting
fit to another. There is hardly clue
to the author Of the murder.

couldn't, they were returned by the next

such high hopes,a few hours before. The
course of true love never did run smooth,

DIsGRACEFUL SCENE IN THE NEW
JERSEY LEGIsLATURE.-Some remarks
made by Assemblyman Carse in the New
Jersey Assembly on Thursday, in which
he called the notorious james M. Scovel
a perjured man and scoundrel, culmina-
ted Friday morning in a fight in the
lobby. Messrs. Cole and Hood had
some warm words, when Scovel came up
and violent talk took place between
Scovel and Cole. Cole-passed the lie and
Scovel struck him heavy blow and sent
him Keeling to the floor. The excite
ment grew intense. The Speaker d.
rected the Sergeant-at-Arms to close the
doors. Carse hearing the noise outside
rushed from his seat to the lobby and
mixed in the fight Scovel seized Carse
and punished him severely, knocking
him down. 1t is said that he was kicked
while down. The Mayor, who happened
to be present, induced Scovel to go out
of the State House. The affair grew out
of the opposition of Scovel to a bill to
the House, which, it was alleged, affect
ed the disposition of some property in
Camden said to be in the courts.

tension railroad that left Rutland Thurs
day, April Sd at 9.05 M, met with a
very serious accident, about twelve
o'clock, at Hunts Crossing, half mile

dent was caused by the spreading of the

passed in safety, but the baggage car,
mail car and coach were hurled from
the track down an embankment some
twelve feet high, the coach turning over
bottom side up and the other two cars
nearly the same, smashing them badly,
the trucks being scattered in all direc-
tions. There were about twenty passen-

MURDER Trial.

Another murder trial in Brooklyn.
The trial is an important one, and at.
tracts general interest in the Getty of
Churches" The prisoner, John Van
Sycle, we'll known resident, is under
indictment for murder in the first de-
gree, in having as alleged, poisoned his
wife, Catherine Van Sycle, by admins
tring arsenic to her in her tea. The evil
dence against the accused is very con-
elusive.
The District Attorney expects to show
the following: On the 10th of last
October, Mrs. Van Sycle went to her
home in Henry street and directed the
servant to bring her some tea. She
drank it, was taken sick, and died on
the following day. Quantities of arse
mic were found in her stomach. At the
inquest the servant testified that Van
Sycle had often said that he wished his
wife was dead. He was in the kitchen
while she prepared the tea, and she saw
him bending over the stove. AS he went
away he told her not TO tell any one
that he had been there. These facts
were sworn to at the trial Tuesday. One
of the most important witnesses is lit.
tie daughter of the deceased, who will
be called upon Wednesday to give evil
dence against her father She is bright
intelligent girl, and great Importance i;
attached to her story.
