McFadden, One of tho Express Robbers,
Eats Ground Glass-Tiller CoDfesses.
ST.. LOUIS, Mo-, March 20.-Tiller, the
express robber, could not stand the press
ure, and yesterday he confessed and impli-
Gated McFadden in the robbery When the
latter heard of the action taken by his
pal he made desperate attempt to COM
nit suicide, and probably will not live,
just before being transferred to Jail
McFadden was given good dinner. In
his cell in the hold-over, realizing the des-
perate position in which he was placed, he
took small, empty bottle that had con-
tanned medicine, and having pounded it into
fragments, he then swallowed the glass
with his food and waited for the end. On
the way into Jail he told Tiller what he had
done. but the express clerk would not be-
lieve him. About four O'Clock he was
taken i'll, and the attention of the Jail
guard was attracted to him. A physician
was summoned, and emetics administered,
but the glass had passed from the stomach
into the intestines, and could not be reached.
He is suffering intense agony, and physicians
pronounce his case almost hopeless. Three
thousand dollars in silver were recovered
yesterday in Kansas City, where they
had been shipped by Tiller the day
after the robbery. It was found in
the United States Express office, marked
'"To be held until called for" The Chief
of-Police said that $12, 900 was still missing,
and that it was controlled by Tiller. The
latter says that McFadden went from here
to Chicago with the proceeds of the robbery

I!xcIuded by Her Sex and Condition.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, March 20.-Presi-
dent Judge Ludlow, one of the ablest jurists
in the State, on Tuesday dismissed the mo-
ton for the admission of Mrs. Carrie B. Kill
gore to practice as an attorney. He opposed
the plea of the Lady, who is woman of I'M
questionable character and ability, first be-
cause no law or custom sanctions it, but,
on the contrary, contemporaneous EXPOSE
ton and universal practice condemn it;
second, to grant this motion would be in
the present condition of the law an act of
judicial legislation, and, therefore, of judi
cial usurpation; third, because in this in
stance, the applicant being married wom-
an, she can not enter into those contracts
without ability to make which she can not
legally practice. as an attorney of the
courts; fourth, because the question must
be solved by legislative and not by judicial
authority. Mrs. Kilgore has petitioned
every Common Pleas court in the county,
and has failed to obtain admission to any
of them

A HORRIBLE DEATH.

A Fatal Disaster Occurs at the Works OF

ing Oil from an Exploded Tank-En.
veloped in the Liquid Flames, They
Perish Before Their Companions' Eyes.
CLEVELAND, o., March 20.-About ten
o'clock yesterday morning a sound not
louder Than tie noise made by two cars
closing together to be coupled was heard in
the vicinity of Forest street, back of the
Standard Oil Works. Immediately the
iron top of an old still in the yards of Merri-
man & Morgan's oil and wax works shot
into the air, accompanied by quantities of
brick, and followed by huge sheet
of flame. An alarm of fire was turned
in, and the department at once responded,
but the flames had obtained such Roadway
that the efforts of the fremen were only di-
rected toward keeping the flames from
spreading to the large tanks standing near
by. The still was located inside large
wooden Enclosure, with four or five other
tanks of the same kind. 1t was here that
the oil was being refined. To the wood
work and the other still the flames rapidly
spread, and dense column of fame and
smoke shot upward to the sky.
About the stills at the time of the expIo-
sion were at work a large number of what
are known as stillers and laborers. Strange
as 1t may seem, every one of those except
three escaped without injury. August
Fisher, William Stahlman and August Gun
Their, three of the laborerS, were close to the
exploding still, and when the burning oil
shot out into the inclosure it fell upon
them, and in a second their clothing was
in flames. They all started to run,
but before they could escape or
aid could reach them they were
burned to crisp. Fisher had managed to
get some little distance away, but the other
two were found by the firemen charred and
burned beyond recognition close to the fatal
still. They were carried out as soon as the
heat of the fire had subsidized enough to
allow the fremen to reach them and placed
upon the ground. Their blackened
bones presented most CHASTITY spectacle.
Hardly veStige of flesh was left on the
crumbling bones and had not their comrades
known exactly who they were recognition
would have been utterly impossible
The remains were left lying on the ground,
covered over with pieces of rough cloth, to
await the arrival of the dead wagon. The
latter came, but Merriam desired that
the Coroner should be present before the
remains of the unfortunate men were re-
moved.
August Fisher left wife and two small
children; Stahlman, wife, and Gunther, a
small family. All were men of about
middle age, and their families were entirely
dependent upon their labors. The still
house and the stills were all entirely de-
stroyed, entailing loss to the firm of not
less than $4,000
