A NUMBER Of citizens of Cincin-
natl have made serious charges of an
unfair election, returning Butterworth
and Young to Congress, and demand
investigation. A committee has been
raised and investigation ordered.
Their case will doubtless bring to
light some of the working of the Fed
eral election laws, and if the state
ments of the petitioners are establish
ed, may send Messrs. Butterworth and
Young back to try their hands again.

A DOUBLE CRIME.
A Suicide and Almost an Uxoro-
eide.

Last Wednesday morning the city
was startled by a report from
Stearns prairie that Timothy Trcacy,
well-known citizen of Platte, Co.,
had attempted to kill his wife and
then committed suicide. The facts,
as since ascertained, are these ::
About nine months ago, Mr.. Treacy
had some disagreement with his
wife and, we believe, his children
also, since which time he has not
lived with them.
His chief place of sojourn, as we
are told, was Mr.. Nick Gentleman's,
where he was stopping on the night
of the 18th. Gentleman's is about Il
mile from Mr.. McCleary's place,
which latter is aoout 800 yds. from the
home of Mrs. Treacy. Mrs. L. had
lately purchased chickens from
McCleary's, who are now at Omaha,
and, there being some setting hens
among the number, she let them re-
main, but was to and fro every day
to tend them. On the morning of
the l4th she made her usual visit to
the McCleary homestead, and was
surprised there by Treacy's coming
suddenly upon her. Having, since
the separation, always had angry
words with him when they happen
ed to meet, she was frightened, and
endeavored to escape. He had
Colts navy revolver and fired all
the six shots at her. He then took
a small revolver, threw Mrs. Treacy
down, put his foot upon her neck,
fired shot at her when the ap-
proach of buggy along the road
frightened him and he ran to Gentle
mans, telling hifa that he had shot
his wife and he guessed he had kill
ed her. Gentleman told him he
would be hung for it; with that,
Treacy went to the stable, and in
very short time the crack of pistol
was heard, and Mr.. Treacy was
found with a bullet tn rough his
heart-dead.
Three ofthe shots fired struck Mrs
T., two Of them producing slight
wounds, the third a serious one
which DIR. Bonesteel regards rs
critical.
Treacy was about fifty-five years
old, and resident of Platte county
eight years.
