WIFE MURDER OR ACCIDENT.

Fearful Fall hom a Fourth Story VIM
dOw-Arrest of the Husband Sus-
picion-He Denies His Guilt.
fearful domestic tragedy, with q fatal tcrmina-
ton, occurred early yesterday morning in the
tenement house 423 East Eighteenth street.
For some time past Francis O'Neill and his wife
Susan-the latter OF whom is forty years OF age
have occupied apartments on the fourth noor,
but did not live happily together, OWING mostly TO
their
DIssIPArHD HABITS
and lack Of coHgenality. At the time named
o'Neill and his wife had quarrel during which
she either fell or was thrown by her husband from
the fourth story window, and, falling TO the pave
ment sustained compound fracture OF the skull
and internal injuries, which some three hours sub
sequenty proved fatal. Mrs. 0'Neill was removed
to Bellevue Hospital in partially nsensible con-
dtion by the Eighteenth precinct police, who mott
ned Coroner Young to take her ante-mortem
examination.
oNEILL, THE HUSBAND.
was arrested on suspicion OF throwing his wife oat
OF the window and held IN the Twenty -sccond
street station house.
Elizabeth Lindel saw Mrs. ONei fall from the
window. Mary Smith saw the prisoner strike his
wife before she fell or was thrown out, and Annie
Collins saw her fall and called an officer.
Later in the day Coroner Young proceeded to the
their arrival the woman had died, she having been
unconscious from the time OF admission.
Calling at the station house Coroner Young had
an interview with the prisoner, very decent
looking man, who denied most positively the
charge made against him. O'Neill says his wife
was
HABITuAL DRUNKARD
and squandered nearly all his earnings for rum,
utterly neglecting her family and domestic duties
generally. The accused confessed that he
and his wife uhe latter being drunk
quarrelled some IN the morning. but
denied striking her on Thursday morning, az stated
by two or three witnesses and says at the time she
fell or jumped from the window he was absent from
the room, drawing some water from the hydrant
preparatory TO COOKING his own breakfast. O'Neill
processes to believe that his deceased wife was suf-
fering from an attack Of delirum tremens NJ the
time of the occurrence.
When informed OF his wife's death O'Neill
TOOK 1T MUCH TO HEART,
and wondered what would become OF his only
child, an infant less than year Old, now under
the kind care Of Warden Brennan OF Bellevue Hos
pital. Coroner Young committed O'Neill to the
Tombs till next Monday, when an inquest will be
held in the case at the Eighteenth precinct station
house. As the case stands at present there seems
to he no positive testimony to show that the ac.
cused pushed his wife IRON the window.
Deputy Coroner Marsh will make q post mOrtem
examination on the body.

What Warden Keen Saws.

Late last evening q reporter proceeded to the
foot of East Seventy. ninth street, and crossing
over to the Workhouse met Warden Keen about
halfpast seven O'Clock. Mr.. Keen sustained the
charges against Mr. Oliver in every particular, but
stated that he would regret the publication OF
anything That would iniure the young man. He
minutely entered into a detailed description Of
the manner in which Mr. Oliver had worked and
stated that the irregularities were first brought to
his attention yesterday week by an inmate named
Donohue, who is detailed as bookkeeper under
Mr. Oliver. Mr.. Donohue, who is an Old attache
and inmate, on that day called upon the Warden
and remarked that he wished to see him privately
on matter OF great Importance. The Warden
gave him private interview. when Donohue in
formed him that things were transpring in the
ONCE that no one could detect unless they sat
Mr. Keen a d Oliver he had tes
persons named above, and produced a record
he had kept each day. The Warden at once Sc
that Oliver had ordered the discharge of the per-
sons named. and the vouchers given above In the
interview with Mr.. Stern were found; but how
out, or low long he had been carrying on his sys-
tenn OF illegal discharges and the appropriation of
moneys received from fines. The Warden states
that the practice under the old regime was Tor a
Commissioner to attend at the island and
discharge inmates from day to day. The
new Board have changed the mode entirely, and
now applications for discharge must be approved
By the committing magistrate and forwarded to
the Central ONCE, corner OF Third avenue and
Eleventh street. from which point they are sent 10
the Warden for report as to the number OF times
the parties have been SEM up and a recommended
tion. The Warden makes his recommendation for
or against discharge sends them to the head
Office and then they are returned with orders to
discharge or hold as the case may be. The War
den has power to discharge any inmate,
except in case where the fine is paid,
when he must return the amount TO the head office.
Mr.. Oliver therefore, has not only, he alleges,
pocketed fines but exercised tie power OF dis-
charge, which nobody but a Commissioner is m
vested with. The reporter carefully examined
the records On the books, which are models OF
ncatness and system, and II seemed almost impos-
sibie that the frauds could have extended over a
long period without detection. Mr.. Oliver has
been clerk since last october, and waile the
Warden says he has been rather fast he attended TO
the duties or the Office acceptably with the excep-
ton or these irregularities, Tor the first time un-
earthe0.

A YEAR WITHOUT A SUMMER.

The remarkable weather we have had
thus far this spring reminds old settlers of
the year 1916. That was known as "a year
without a summer January, February,
March, April and May were mild, pleasant
months. An Amherst, New Hampshire,
paper gives the following facts about the
summer:
June was the coolest ever known in this
latitude. Frost, ice and snow were COM
mon. Almost every green thing was
killed. Fruit was nearly all destroyed.
Snow fell to the depth of 10 inches in Yer
mont, several in Maine and three in Cen
tral New York, and also in Massachusetts,.
Considerable damage was done at New Or
leans in consequence of the rapid rise in
the river the suburbs were covered with
water, and the roads were only passable in
boats.
July was accompanied by frost and ice.
On the 9TH ice was formed of the thickness
of common window-glass, throughout New
England New York and some parts of
Pennsylvania. Indian corn was nearly all
destroyed ; some favorably situated fields
escaped. This was true of some of the hill
farms of Massachusetts.
August was more cherries if possible
than the summer months already passed.
Ice was formed half an inch thick. In
dian corn was so frozen that the greater
part was cut down and dried for fodder,
Almost every green thing was destroyed,
both in this country and Europe. Papers
received from England stated that it would
be remembered by the present genration
that the year 1916 was year in which
there was no summer. Very little corn
ripenedin New England and Middle States.
Farmers supplied themselves from the
corn produced in 1916 for the seed of the
spring of 1917. 1t sold at 81 to s. per
bushel

1 Western Temrernnce lecture.

Billy Ross, temperance lecturer at
Rushville, Illinois, was preaching to the
young men on his favorite theme. He
said:
"Now, boys, when l ask you question
you must not be afraid to speak out and
answer me. When you look around and
see all these fine houses, farms and cattle
do you ever think who owns them all
now? Your fathers own them do they
not ?p
Yes sir" shouted hundred voices.
"Well, where will your fathers be twen-
ty years from now?n
Dead shouted the boys,
"That's right. And who will own all
this property them"
"Us boys shouted the urchins.
Fright. Now, tell me, did you ever, in
going along the street, notice the drunk
ards lounging around the saloon door,
waiting for some one to treat them ?"
Yes sir, lots of them"
well, where will they be in twenty
years from now?n
Dead" exclaimed the boys.
And who will be drunkards them"
Gus boys"
Billy was thunderstruck for a moment
but recovering himself, tried to tell the
boys how TO escape such fate.

HOME CIRCLE.
GUILDS SIGNAL.

Mr.. Bret Harte, in the Tribune, celebrates
William Guild. the engineer of the train which,
on the 10th Of April, plunged into Meadow
Brook, on the line OF the Stonington and Provi-
dence railroad. 1t was his custom, as often as
he passed his home, to whistle an 'alls well'
TO his wife. He was found, after the disaster,
dead with his hand on the Unbelievable of his
engine. The poem fairly illustrates the genius
OF Bret Harte 70 our mind it is one of the most
eloquent that has been written for many day.
only Whittier writes such verses-and he only
occasionaly.l
Two low whistles, quiet and clear,
That was the signal the engineer
That was the signal that Guild tbs said
Gave to his wife at Providence
As through the sleeping town, and thence,
Out in the night,
On to the light,
Down past the farms lying white, he sped
As a husbands greeting, scant no doubt
Yet to the woman looking out
Watching and waiting, no serenade,
Love-song or midnight roundelay
Said what that whistle seemed to say
'To my trust true,
So love to you'll
Working or waiting good night it said.
Brisk young bagmen, tourists fine,
Old commuters along the line,
Brakemen and perters glanced ahead,
Smiled as the signal, sharp, intense,
Pierced through the shadows ofProvidence,
IN othng amlss-
Nothing!- is
Only Guild calling his wife" they said
Summer and winter, the old refrain
Rang DER the pillows of ripening grain,
Pierced through the budding boughs o,erhead,
Flew down the track when the red leaves
burned
Like living Goals from the engine spurned;
Sang as it few;
ITO our trust true
First Of all duty-good night" it said.
AND then, one night, it was heard no more,
From Stonington over Rhode Island shore,
And the folk in Providence smiled and said,
As they turned in their beds The engi-
Eeer
Has once forgotten his midnight cheer"
One only knew,
To his trust true,
Guild lay under his engine, dead.
