FARIBAULT, Mimi, Jan. 8.-Chief of Po-
lice D. j. Shipley died Sunday evening at
6:15 O'Clock. It will be remembered that
on the evening of Jan. 2 he was shot on
Main street, near the Arlington house, by
man named Louis M. Sage. Sage had
been indulging in threats to shoot certain
parties, and was seen to purchase re-
volver by Fred Kikienaff, who Immediately
informed Shipley of this fact. Shipley,
who was eating his supper, started down
Main street and overlook Sage, and re-
quested him to give up his revolver
which Sage refused to do, and in the
melee which followed Shipley received
the fatal wound that caused his death.
Shipley was conveyed to his house, and at
the time was not supposed to be MORALLY
wounded, but he continued to fail till
death came to his relief, as above stated.
Sage was arrested in barn on his prem
Uses at $50 o'clock the same night He
has since waived examination, and was
committed to jail till the May term of
court.
There are those who claim that Shipley
was engaged in making an unlawful ar
rest-that is without a warrant but or
city charter provides than any officer may
arrest any person whom he may have rea-
sonable cause to suspect Is about to COM
NIT an unlawful act.
The autopsy was held by Drs. Rose,

lows: TIE ball entered the left side about
six and one-half inches from the median
line at the point of the crest of the ille-
um Chip bone), passing nearly at right
ar gle backward, Lodging near the prom
ontory of the sacrem, the ball going
through the skin abdominal muscles behind
the sigmoid fexure and underneath the
left psoas muscle. The deceased came to
his death from py@mia.

DOUBLE SUICIDE.
DETROIT, Jan. 8.-A double suicide was
committed in this city Saturday night or
Sunday, evidently with the coolest pre
meditation. A man named J. Edward
Monck and wife were the parties to the
shocking transaction. He had been con-
nected with the customs department at
Chatham, Ontario, but was discharged a
few weeks since and came with his wife to
this city, where they took board at the
Franklin house. Saturday evening their
month old child was given into temporary
charge of lady connected with the hotel
to take care of. Monck then locked his
wife IN her room and went away. The
lady, finally getting tired of her charge,
sought to return the child to its mother
about midnight, but was unable to get into
her room. Entrance was finally secured by
means of a pass key, when Mrs. Monck was
found dead with every evidence that
she had died from morphine administered
by her own hand or that Of her husband.
The same evening Monck went to the
Brunswick, registered under an assumed
name, and telling the clerk he would not
want breakfast went to the room assigned.
Here he was found yesterday
afternoon ia an unconscious condition
from the effects of a dose of morphine and
died later in the evening. All efforts to
restore him to consciousness proved una
vailing. Both parties were under thirty,
aud have parents and other relatives liv-
ing in Chatham. 1t is supposed despon-
dency over the discharge from his position
and failure of all efforts at restoration
drove the pair to the commission of the
crime. Nothing is known of their pre-
vious history or any cause to which the
shocking event can be attributed. Rel
atives have already taken the bodies back
to Chatham.

CHENEY, w. T., Jan. 8.-Last night eighty

rested for killing and robbing Chinese
women, and hung him.
