Fate Of A Betrayer.

The fate of the betrayer of young
womanhood by the promise of marri'
age is anything but a desisable one
in certain parts of the state of Mo
sour, as may be learned from the fol
lowing dispatch:
INDEPENDENCE, Mo-, May Sat s
special session of the Criminal Court
of this county John A Wheeler was
yesterday sentenced to two years il
the Penitentiary for the betrayal o.

weeks since, but q motion for new
trial was overruled and sentence al

made to carry to the Supreme Court.
The standing of the parties to the
suit, who live in Kansas City, have
made it a note. It is the first sen

in this county.

Perfectly Correct.

4 Washington correspondent OF
the n Y. Tribune, says that the
count of the money and securities in
the Treasury has practically been
completed For weeks Democrats
had entertained the hope that the
count would reveal some mares nest.
As 1t proceeded from day to day and
nothing crooked was found, their
disappointment was intense. Some
seemed to imagine that the Republi-
cans had been let loose from time to
time in the Treasury vaults to fill
their pockets and carry away what
they saw ft. A Georgia man who
came up the other day to look after
a postoffice asserted most positively
that the Republican National Com
mittee helped itself to funds from
the Treasury vaults every four years.
When he and others of his class read
the statement that three silver doll
ars were missing from bag that in
handling had become united, spilling
its contents, they felt sure that this
was the beginning of the real investi
cation. Their chagrin may be imag
ined when they were told to- day that
the 50 had been found and that the
result of the count, which involved
the handling of S300,000,000 was the
discovery that two cents were miss
ing out of So package of pennies.
The following dispatch explains the
missing two cents:
WASHINGTON, May 12.-The count
Of moneys and securities in the Uni
ted States treasury las been com
pleted. Everything was found in q
satisfactory condition, and the re-
ports of ex-Treasurer Wyman were
proved in every instance. Even the
alleged discrepancy of two cents re-
ported in the count of the cash room
was shown on a recount to be ineor-
rect. The missing pennies were sub
se1uently found on the floor where
they had dropped during the prog
reGs of the count. The books and
accounts of the treasurer's office are
yet TO be verified.

names and ages of the children are
as follows: Harry, aged 10 years I;
Susan, aged 8; Charles, aged 5 Ma
ry, aged 3, and Samuel, aged 1 year.
Mrs. Pfautz first threw the children
in, and then jumped in the water
herself. The cries of the children
struggling in the water were heard
by some of the neighbors, who has
tened to their assistance The first
one rescued from the water was Har-
ry, the eldest boy, but life was near
ly extinct Medical assistance was
promptly on hand and the efforts OF
the doctors undoubtedly saved his
life. The mother was next taken out
of the water, but the vital spark had
already fled. The youngest child WAS
next taken out, but it was dead, the
mother having fallen upon it and
crushed out its life. Mary, aged
three years, was then rescued, but
life was extinct The last body ta-
ken from the water was that of Char
lie, aged hye years de showed signs
of life, and after considerable exer-
ton on the part of the physicians re-
gained consciousness.
Mr. Pfautz was unavoidably tenn
porarily absent from home on bust
ness, and was completely unnerved
and prostrated by the news of the
terrible fate of his wife and children.
Mrs. Pfautz's mind had been af
fected for some time, caused, it is
said, by undue excitement concern
ing religious affairs. The woman
was often found on her bended knees
in the kitchen apparently engaged
in prayer, and the burden Of her
conversation to visitors to the house
was in reference to religious topics.
She frequently expressed the wish
that she was dead, and that she and
her five children were in heaven.

SOMERSET, Pa, May 14-About g.
80 this evening this town was shaken
from centre to circumference by an
explosion of nitro glycerine and dyn-
amite at the Somerset chemical works
located one mile east. The explosion
occurred in the nitro-glycerine agi-
tadng house where one OF the pro-
prieters, w. I. Beach, of New York,
was engaged at work. He was blown
into atoms. The largest piece of bone,
flesh OF clothing that could be found
was not larger than E silver dollar.
The nitro-glycerine building with
eight others were streEn to the winds

The Victim OF The Trunk Mystery.

CHICAGO, May 12.-Giovanna AZ
geo, Antonio Mercurio and Ignazio
Bove, the three Italian suspects in
the murder of Fillipo Caruso, are nc
longer simply suspects. They have
in presence Of witnesses all their con.
nection with the murder, and out oi
the mouth Of each one enough evil
dence has been secured to hang al
three
They were brought to the Central
Station to-day and each was subject
ed to a rigorous examination by
Lieutenant Shea, with the help OF
officer Morris, the Italian n-speaking
policemen. The confessions OF Gilar-
do were exaggerated somewhat in or
der to frighten them. They were in.
formed that Gilardo accused them of
committing tho murder and saw them
do it.
His seeming treachery had the de
sired effect, and first Azzo, then Mer
curio. and Bove in turn implicated
the two others.
The way in which the murder was
committed is contained in all three
of the confessions in more or less
complete manner and shows that the
supposition of strangulation was the
correct theory. Having determined
to Kill Caruso the only thing to be
settled was the method, and garroI
ing was selected as being the most
silent as well as being swift and sure
It was the custom to of these mer
to shave each other when occasion
required, and in order to take Caru-
so unawares, it was proposed by Mer
curio to shave their victim.
When ne was seated in chair, G
common wooden affair OF the sorI
usually found in kitchens, Bove and
Azzeo took him by the arms to pre-
vent his escape, and Afercurio grasp
ed him round the throat aad pulled
his head back upon the top of the
chair, gripping his windpipe until tht
wretched victim of their avarice ceas
ed to move. During the frantic eff
forts of the strangling man to escape
from death, his trousers pocket, con
tanning the coveted money, was cut
by one of the assassins, and the say
ings Of his life extracted The trunk
was then purchased and the body
lf
confessions allege that the murder
was not at first intended, but thai
simply the overpowering of the man
so that he could be robbed was the
object of the assault, but that the
murderous grip of Mercurio was toe
quick in its result and when he let &C
after the money was taken CarusC
fell forward on the floor dead.

rebel armies that Lee commanded,
as the Lincoln government and the
northern people prayed every day
that he should do. He was not the
man that destiny had in store to de
liver their nation from the rule of the
slave holder to the rule of freeman.
No half hearted freeman was shaped
by the hand of destiny to free this
nation Of slavery. The General nev
er was in accord with the idea of Civ
ing freedom to the colored race and
very soon after he was placed in com
mand of all the national forces, when
he commanded from q most comfor-
table residence in Washington, he
manifested in a most striking way
his detestation of any countenance
being given to the freedom ofthe ne
gro. There was a family of minstrels
called the Hutchinson family who
when the war began Travelled from
city to city in the North, singing
songs of freedom that were calcula-
ted to inspire abolition sentiments.
The family visited Washington and
were most enthusiastically greeted.
The Northern soldier from his free
home was delighted with the songs
of freedom that the family sang. Gen
eral Cameron was Secretary Of war,
he was asked to give the minstrels
permission to cross the Potomac and
visit the camps of the soldiers and
warble the carols of freedom to the
Boys in Blue The sound of the
melody of the abolition songs were
echoed back into the quarters OF Gen
eral Mcclellan in Washington city
and he was so impressed by the mel
ody and words OF the liberty hymns
that he issued the following order !:
"By direction of .ugOr General Nc
Clcllan, The permit girsn TO the Hutch
lnsoR Family TO sing in the camps, and
their pass TO cross the Potomac are re-
poked, and they tUiA not be aIlOtUsd to
sing TO the troops"
How could general issuing such
an order succeed in the death Crap
pie with slavery even if he had an
army of millions of men at his back.
That order vindicates General Nc
Clellan.

work. Where the building in which
the explosion occurred stood there
is hole large enough to bury the

The loss is very heavy. An explosion
