A HORRIBLE TRAGEDY.
An Enraged Man Shoots Several Per-
sons-The Murderer lynched.

LAREDO, Kan. Nov. 10-Intelligence Just
received here from Hodgman county of one
of the most brutal butcheries ever enacted
in western Kansas, is as follows At Ma
rine, 30 miles from any telegraph station, re-
sides Sam Purple, man of sober habits.
His family consisted Of wife, his wifc's
sister and four children. Friday morning he
was awakened by his wife, which so enraged
him that he sprang from the bed, seized a re-
yolyer and shot his wife, killing her instant
ly; he then shot newborn babe and anoth-
child; his sister-in-law, Miss Lober. received
the last shot from the revolver in her shoul-
der. He then proceeded to load shot gun,
but fortunately. by mistake he poured the
powder into one barrel and the shot into the
other, thereby saving the life of another of
the children, at whom he fired. The infuri-
ated man then mounted his horse and start
ed for Marine, with the avowed purpose OF
numbering his wife's parents. Before he
could accomplish this Miss Lober gave the
alarm, and Purple, seeing the game was up,
rode TO Jetmere and surrendered himself to
the authorities. Monday, a mob of about
100 men took the prisoner from the Jail and
hung him. Miss Lober's recovery is doubt

THE CHICAGO TROUBLES.
Five Thousand Men at Work In the
Packing Houses.
Collision Between Strikers and a
Squad Of Infantry.

CHICAGO, Nov. 1O.-Mr. Nelson Morris
was interviewed last night, with reference
to the dispatch from Albany, n. Y, yester-
day, In which it was said that the beef
packers in Albany, Troy, and other points
IN the east, were unable to get butchers to
slaughter live stock shipped to them.
Mr.. Morris denied all knowledge of any
succh trouble. He had house about five
miles from Albany, but he found no diff
Guilty in getting men to slaughter animals
shipped on the hoof from here, nor did he
know OF any other firm that had any trouble
getting cattle butchered in the East. In
puDHsneu interview, packer says the
statement made by Mr.. Barry last night,
regarding his arrangement with Kent
Y Fowler to assist the men in securing the
elght-hour day, Is incorrect. 1t is stated that
neither Mr.. Kent nor Mr.. Fowler eyer made
such an agreement.
The International Carpenters Union, at a
meeting last night, passed q resolution ex-
pressing, sympathy for the union stock
yard strikers and offering pecuniary aid if
needed.
Gen. Fitzsimmons has requested that a
company OF the First Cavalry be sent to the
yards. 1t Is thought they can render more
efficient service in answering sudden alarms
than the infantry.
A large number of men applied for work
at the packing houses this morning and
about 5000 men were at work. Mr.. Nelson
Morris received dispatch from the East
would not give will send 300 skilled butch
ers. He also had a dispatch from
slaughter firm in the East which has been
killing beef for him. which says that they
have killed 800 head of cattle day, and can
double that number If he wishes it,
!, About two-thirds of the men at work in
the yards are new hands. Militia guards
were out as usual and all the approaches
were lined with pickets
There was q collision tonight near Ash
land avenue bridge between a crowd OF
strikers and squad Of infantry. The bridge
was guarded by twelve men from the Second
Infantry under Lieutenant Mcmillan, the
balance Of the company being stationed in
the vicinity of the neghboring packing
houses. The crowd Of strikers and sympa
thlzers numbered about 800 and was deter
mined to prevent the packing house en-
ployes from crossing the bridge on their way
back to the city at the close Of the DAYS
work. The crowd was charged by the squad
several times and forced to retire Temporal
rlly, but increasing numbers added to its
perslstency and a serious conflict seemed
imminent Finally Lieutenant Mcmillan
gave the order to load with 6all cartridges
The crowd thereupon speedily dispersed and
the employees went on their way without
further molestation. No one suffered serious
injury.

sAccARAPPALEATHER BOARD CO.
a Charge that George E. Davis was
an Embezzler.

The Boston Journal says:
Associated with Richmond j. Lane In
the management OF the Sacearappa
leather board enterprise, which Is said
to have absorbed so large a share OF
the funds Of the Abingdon National
Bank, was George f. Davis Of this city.
About two weeks ago Davis suddenly died
at apartments where he had been living in
Boston. 1t is now asserted on behalf Of
MIR. Lane that Davis embezzled 100000 or
$4,000 Of the banks money which had been
invested In the Saccarappa enterprise. 1t Is
claimed that Davis had full charge of the
books Of the concern, and that by false
entries he was enabled to get possession OF
the large sum which was invested for the
bank in order 10 save an original risk Of
about $1,000. 1t is said that this will be
the general line of defence when the cases
against Lane come to trial.
Davis was young man Of some brilliant
attainments. He lived extravagantly for
year or two previous to the expose Of last
summer in a fashionable family hotel ON the
Back Bay. He had been in several enter
prises, but the most lucrative, judging by
his manner Of life, was the Sacearappa com
pany in which he was associated with Mr..
Lane, who represented the Arlington Bank.
Strenuous efforts are being made with the
Attorney General at Washington to compro-
mise the case against ex-President Lane. IL
is represented that he has been the victim Of
Dayis's scheming and has not personally
profited by the banks misfortunes. Certain
terms Of compromise between Mr.. Lane and
the bank have been arranged, which it Is
said hang upon the decision regarding the
criminal cases. District Attorney Stearns,
1t Is understood, Is strongly opposed to any
compromise which shall include an aban-
d0nment Of the criminal prosecution. AS at
present arranged the trial will probably take
place in December" ="

He Had Been in Thomaston. Too.

A peculiar case Of mistaken identity Is re-
lated of ex-Collector b. +. league Of Au-
burn, with relation to himself says the
