THE NEW JERSEY TRAGEDY.
President Runyon, of the New Brunswick

Bank Building.


President Runyon, of the New BrunswicH
National Bank, Cuts His Throat in the
Bank Building.
Mahlon Runyon, president of the national
bank at New Brunswick, N. j., cut his throat
in the bank on Monday. He was implicated in
the thievery of Cashier Hill. New Brunswick
is shaken to its center. Bank Examiner Shelly
has discovered a deficiency of over one mil
lion dollars in the surplus cash and securities.
The town is wild. Men rushed frantically to
the doors of the national bank, only to be told
that the business of this institution had been
suspended for the present
The crash in Wall street in MAY last took the
bulk of Hills stealings. Runyon, although
quite popular, was ignorant of financial matters
and was a willing tool in the hands of the de-
signing cashier. At 9:45 Monday President
Runyon drove up to the bank in his carriage
and twenty minutes later he sent Chief Fitz-
gerald, who was in charge of the bank, for a
copy of the morning paper in which the story
was told of his completely in the banks down.
fall. Securing the paper, he went into a room
occupied by the directors and began to read.
A deathly pallor overspread his face, and
he exclaimed: "My God, what will
my children doln Passing a handker-
chief over his brow, he threw the paper into
the lap OF director StOddard, and eXcusing
himself went into the toilet room of the bank
a minute later the sound Of a fall was heard.
the directors rushed to the closet and discov-
cred the body of Runyon on the floor, with
blood oozlng from a gaping wound in the
throat Determined on suicide, he had cut his
wrists deep, blood squirting against the wall
and ceiling. The thousands of people outside

was the question which agitated the agonized
depositors.
The suicide of President Runyon, while
strengthening the testimony in regard to the
affairs of the management, causes u%nbounded
lstonishment to the public generally. Runyon
was a farmer, sixty years old. He leaves a

Smaller Pension Fees.

Washington, Special Telegram:-Acting Sec
rotary Joslyn rendered a decision which will
be of interest to pension agents and pension
attorneys alike 1t is specially in the interest
of pension attorneys and deprives the pension
agent of a small fee he formerly received, and
which in the course of many years amounts to
q considerable sum. The case came up from
the pension Office on ar appeal TO Milo b.
Stephens, a pension attorney of Cleveland,
Ohio. The commissioner of pensions had de-
cided that under the new law United States
pension agents may deduct thirty cents from the
amounts of attorneys fees, as compensation for
services in forwarding the same in each
pension claim allowed and represented by a
pension attorney at the time of allowance.
This was the law embraced in section 1863 of
the revised ~statntes, which however, was re-
pealed by the act of July, 1877, fixing the COM
of pension agents. 1t appears that
the commissioner of pensions was under the
impression that the law passed last session
virtually destroyed the old law and he ruled
that the pension agents could now collect the
thirty cents fee. On this question Mr.. Joslyn
disagreed with him and ruled that while the
act of July 4, 1884, materially changed that of
1873, it failed to enact the old law authorizing
this. In his letter to the commissioner of PEN
sions he gives a complete history Of the pension
laws.

Empsror w11liam,. Alarming Condition.

Berlin cable special of Thursday says.
Intense excitement prevails here in conse.
quence Of the sudden and perhaps serious ILL
ness of the Emperor William while reviewing
the grand military parade recently. His usu-
ally rudy cheeks were observed to grow
deathly pale, his face fell upon his breast.
and relaxing his hold upon the reins of his
horse, his body swayed to the right. An in
slant later, had his condition been unobseryed,
the stalwart form Of the aged monarch would
have fallen in the dust, and probably been
mangled by the hoofs of hosts of horses. For
tunately his peril was observed in time to
avoid so terrible a catastrophe, and a score of
friendly arms were outstretched to save him
The emperor was lifted from his horse and
removed to a closed carriage. The emperor's
carriage, surrounded by a strong guard, was
driven hastily to the palace, and his physicians
we're at once summoned. The belief is very
general, Notwithstanding medical assurances
Of his convalescence, that he has but a little

More Damage by the Dakota cyclone.

The Alexandria Herald gives the following
description of damages by the cyclone in Han
son county, Oak. The damage in this county
seems to lave commenced at Red Stone post
Office. ]. II. Nolts house, barn, stacks and
tools, were mingled in one vast wreck and
swept onward. Pieces of the building, bed
ding, clothing, and mail from the postofice
were found strewn along three miles in the
track Of the storm. Mr.. Nolt and one son
were away from home. His wife and family.
one being a babe in arms, barely got into
the cellar when the house was taken, and
they looked up shelterless at a clear sky,
thankful none of them had been killed.
Mrs. S. A. Wilhelm's house was taken
up into midair, whirled twenty rods northwest
where it seems to have struck on its roof. and
plowed into the earth until only splinters, bits
Of clothing, scattered and broken utensils
showed which way the storm went. Walter
Peck was moving, saw the storm coming and
got hos team unhitched but they broke away
from him and ran. He lay down and held on
some grass roots. Parts of hay and grain
stacks sailed over him. Household goods and
lying timbers raced past Great chunks of
ice fell all around him. The hay rake rolled
rapidly along. The mower was taken fifteen
rods and dashed to the ground in a hundred
pieces. In a minute it was over and Mr..
Peck arose from the ground unhurt, and
found the only thing he had damaged was the
mower. Nelson Van Tassel,s stacks were
blown down. The tornado started for Charles
H. Wards, took the tops off some stacks,
started toward II. w. Peck's, then toward w.
D.. Knapp's, twisting up corn stalks, backset-
ting breaking, tearing up flax and piling sod
in mounds three feet high. In some places
the sod was cleaned off breaking as smooth rs
a house floor. When it got within twenty rods
of Knapp's he moved into the cellar on a run.
Circling again it went back to Wards moved
his house, which fronted the south, clear
from the foundation, and set it down front
ing the east. Everything about it was
twisted out of shape. Wards granary, con-
tanning 500 bushels of grain, was twisted of
the foundation, one side Of the roof taken and
part of the shingles from the other side, a COW
was killed and other damage done. The
neighbors came right to the rescue with teams
and money, and ere this his damage has been
all repaired, Willard Woodwork had about
one hunered bushels of oats standing in shock.
This went up and never came down. When
the tornado crossed Long Lake the wa
ter fairly boiled, and in less than a half a
minute enormous hail stones fell. The largest
we heard of measured saven inches the long
way. Hail fell all along the route. The
storm only took a swath about five rods wide,
and $1,000 is a large estimate for the damage
done in this county.
