TRAGEDY IN HIGH LIFE.
Suicide Of a Young Lady Of Oae OF the
Hest Families in Utica-A Letter Left
for Her Mother Saying She Had
Been Deceived and WrOnged.

New YORK, Dec 10.
Miss r. E. Keller, 80 years old. belonging
to one of the best families in Utica, shot
herself dead tonight in the room of Mr.. and
Mrs. George Dunno at Windsor Hotel.
About six o'clock the detective b, ard the
sound of low voices quarrelling proceeding
from the room and few moments after the
report of pistol rang through the corridor.
fastening to the room the detective endeav-
ored to open the door and found it obstructed
by the body of a young woman, while Mr..
and Mrs. Dunno were too much over whelmed
BY the calamity to make any statement, ex-
cept that Miss Keller shot herself. Miss
Keller left letter addressed to her mother,
saying she had been deceived and wronged.
The following is the letter:
Mother, forgive me pray that God may
pardon your broken hearted daughter; for
the rest you can guess. Curse the love that
makes your child thus forget you. 1 tried to
conquer it, but no power Of will could quench
it. Pray for me; you do not know what this
costs me. Think kindly of me. have been
SO wronged-more than caa acknowledge
and God alone knows how have been de-
ceived. Again farewell. Mother, have
deserved this?-
The letter was not signed.

WAsaIxsros. Dec. 13-
In the Senate this morning, the chair pre-
sensed report from w. W. Corcoran,
chairman of the joint commission OF the
Washington monument.
Among the bills presented are the follow
ing: By Dolph of Oregon, 10 provide for
the formation and admission into the Union,
of the State of Washington.
The same bill, with unimportant changes,
was introduced two years ago By Mr.. Frye
and provides for the admission of Washing
ton territory and portion of Idaho. under
the name of the State of Washington.
By Mr.. Morrill,, to provide for commits
sion on the liquor traffic.
On the conclusion of the morning business,
the Senate took up for consideration the re-
port of the Committee on Rules, and pro-
ceeded to consider the rules serfatin.
The Senate on motion of Mr.. FRYE pro-
ceedsd to consider the new rules. The hrst
proposed read As follows:
1. In the absence of the vice president the
Senate shall choose president pro tenn.
2 In the absence of the vice president and
pending the election of the president pro
tenn, the secretary Of the Senate, or in his
absence the chief clerk shall perform the
duties of the chair.
3. The president pro TEN. shall have the
right 10 name IN open Sendte, Ut IL oUoeues
in writing, senator to perform the duties
of the chair, and the senator designated may
discharge such duties for a period not ex-
ceeding three days unless otherwise ordered.
protracted discussion ensued. Bayard
opposed the privilege given the president pro
ten. on the ground that such designated SEN
atcr may IN his opinion by possibility become
acting president of the United States and the
power to name him should not be placed in
the uncontrolled possession of one man, con-
trary to the theory of our government.
Mr.. Garland moved to amend the new rule
by striking out three days limitation and in
sorting instead ''but such substitution shall
not extend beyond the adjournment" which
is the present provision in force.
The yeas and nays being called on the
amendment resulted, yeas, "a; nays. 20; all
democrats voting for and republicans against
the amendment which was lost
Mr. Sherman said he was averse to draw
ing party lines on question OF this character
and hoped the senators would, as he should,
give anxious thought to the objections made
to the clause in order to avoid the appearance
of partisan action on a matter Of this char
acter.
Mr.. Edmunds spoke in favor of Mr.. Frye's
rule, and offered resolution that the
Senate proceed to the election of president
pro tenn. and asked that the resolution lie or
the table.
The Senate then went into executive SEES
sion and at p. NJ adjourned until Monday.

FOREIGN NEWS.
O'DONNELL'S JURORS.
The Crown Refuses to Give their Ad.
dresses Il Part Of Them Found.

LONDON, Dec. l3.
The solicitors and friends of ODonnell
have found five of the jurors who convicted
him. Three of these desire that a meeting of
the whole twelve should be held in order to
explain their conviction, and arrest the exc
cution of the condemned man. 1t is believed
that unless the other jurors are found by to-
morrow, it is scarcely probable that the
execution will be stopped. The Crown au-
thorities refuse to give the addresses of the
jurors to ODonnell's friends,
letter of Mr.. Sullivan to MIR. Russell,
chief of O'Donnells counsel, contends that
Judge Denman misdrected the minds of the
to prove that Carey had a revolver. O'Don-
nell's friends maintain that although no evil
dence was offered to this effect. there was no
proof that Carey was not armed, and that BY
harping on the word ''evidence" instead of
using the word "prOef," the judge obtained
verdict of guilty of wilful murder. The
United States minister states that if any of
the jury say the verdict was influenced there
by, he is willing to seek the mitigation of the
sentence.
Six members of the jury have now been
found. They say the verdict was influenced
by the judge. The government refused to
gi.e the addresses of the jury because of the
threats of the newspapers against them. If
a meeting of the jury was possible, the Crown
might be forced to mitigate the sentence, but
there is no hope of tracing the remaining
members Of the jury in time to prevent the
execution of the death sentence.
1t is now understood that the jury stood
for murder and 5 for manslaughter.

GRAVEYARD INSURANCE.
A Ring in Fall River Who Defrauded

FALL RIVER. Dec. Is.
The developments in the insurance frauds
is causing excitement in this city. 1t appears
that the graveyard system" has been in
vogue for some years. 1t 10 assented that
men of VIGOROUSLY dissipated and feeble
health have been heavily insured. A dozen
so-called Mutual companies have opened here
during the past two years, and small army
Of canvassers and collectors were employed.
Some of the companies made a specially of
insuring the lives of children; others took
poor risks and paid losses promptly, for the
sake of advertising. Business began to boom
and soon there were more insurance men in
town than brokers, and they, like the latter,
began specializing in futures" Agents we're
paid according to the number Of policies
taken.
The character of local agents in many cases
were very unsavory. The latest scheme was
the organization of clubs Of ten, in which case
of death the amount of the policy WAS divided
among the survivors and the family of the
deceased. Glaring cases of frauds we're dis
covered. but the parties most deeply impli-
Gated fed.
The ring was composed of an agent, phy-
stefan, q druggist and an undertaken, Who
worked very profitable business. Peculiar
methods Of the companies are developed, and
interesting derails are expected when the
matter reaches court. The estimated frauds
aggregate tl50, 900.
