THE CHICAGO TRAGEDY-TSe Reaa Of
J1GeTH1eddling-The Parties ana the Quarrel
Chicago was startled Monday evening by
the announcement that Mr.. Francis Han
ford had been shot, with a fatal result, by
Alexander Sullivan, secretary OF the Chi-
cago board OF public works. 1t seems that
Hanford had written To the board OF educa-
tion, charging the wife OF Sullivan with
using improper influence to secure the ap
pointment of Duane Doty, of Detroit, as
superintendent OF schools in Chicago. The
complaint was made with great bitterness
and placed Mrs. Sullivan In a mott dis
agreeable light. Monday evening Sullivan
and his wife, accompanied by a friend, called
upon Hapford To secure a Tetraction. This
he refused 10 give, when an alteration en- =
sued, during which HanfOrd struck Mr.. Sui
livan. AT this Sullivan drew a pistol aud
fired at Hanford, the ball taking effect in
the stomach and causing death in two hours.
Sullivan claims that he aimed at the arm,
but that In the scu1fie the aim was changed
Inadvertently. The parties are widely known
and greatly respected. Sullivan is young
man, and was formerly a reporter on the
Chicago Times. Previous to 1865 his wife,
then Margaret Buchanan, was a teacher in
the public schools of Detroit, Michigan. Mr..
Doty was at that time superintendent of the
Detroit schools. After 1868 Miss Buchanan
came to Chicago and entered journalism as
q reporter on The Evening Post, and AFTER
wards wrote general articles for the Sunday
Tribune. More recently she has been lite
rary editor OF the Times.

THE TURKISH WAR-The Ciyiaials at Bld-
1orid The poor Bulgarians are the greatest
sufferers. The sufferings OF this poor people
are most terrible, and the atrocities perps-
trated by the regular and irregular Turkish
soldiery are unparalleled in the history of
modern times. have been at some trouble
to ascertain the truth in this matter. and
believe the statement 10 be not at all exag
gerated that 46, 900 human beings, OF all ages
and both sexes, have been massacred In the
Provinces Of Bulgaria, Macedonia. and Epi.
rus since the 1st OF January, 1876. Orders
have been received from ConstantInople to
search out and punish the authors OF these
wholesale murders, but IL is difficult to do
either when so many of every rank are i'm
plicated. AT Plevno were found thIrty-four
old guns, pieces OF rusty iron, valuable, per-
haps, to q curiosity dealer, but more than
dangerous to their owners as weapons OF Of
Tense; there were no cartridges, nothing, in
deed, TO indicate that they ha1 been used for
century; but their proprietors were carried
before the local governor, and when they
were released they returned TO find their
wives and daughters In the slave market,
and adjoining Turkish villages and Plevno q
heap OF smoldering ashes. So ii is all over
the country; everywhere history OF ra pc
and massacre, but not every where unrssist-
ed and unavenged.-lN Y. Tines.

builder. He had the monopoly of street car
cars for every nationality. The price was
gold, paid before the cars were shipped.
Uncle John, as he was called, was supposed
