A ENSsON SSsNDLER

The President Convinced of His
Guilt. but willing to Remit His
Fine.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.-The president
to-day remitted the fine of 81, 600 and costs
amounting to $500, in the case of Elihu B.
Case, who was convicted in the district
court of the Northern district of Illinois,
July 10, 1885. for obtaining a pension by
fraud and perjury, and sentenced to two
years imprisonment in the Joliet peniten-
tiary and to pay fine Of 81. coo. Case was
granted pension of 81 per month in 1868
for rupture, and in 1888 he applied for an
increase. On investigation it was shown on
the testimony of his divorced wife, that his
afflictiOn ante-dated the war; subsequently
his wife admitted that she was wrong as to
the time of the rupture, and said that it ac
tually occurred during the war. His mother
confirmed this. Case is now about 65 years
OF age, and is in feeble health. He has al
ready served 16 months of his imprisOn-
ment. The president made the following
endorsement on the application for pardon:
I believe this man guilty. He dishonesty
crediIed the cause of honest soldiers for
fifteen years. His greed for more was the
occasion of his detection and in his applca-
ton for pardon there is, in my opinion, a very
questionable attempt to make his divorced
wife and his mother give a false cOloring to
the facts. can only remit his fine and costs.

hind Last Saturday Mrs. Shinnick. who
has been i'll with consumption, complicated
with other diseases. finding her end fast
approaching, made an ante-mOrtem state
ment of the details of a murder perpetrated
by her husband over year ago.
Shinnick lived over the bar-room,
and his wife was frequently
called upon to assist him. She says that
one night last fall, between the hours Of
IL and II o'clock, she happened to enter
the bar by the back door, when
she saw her husband, who was in front of
the bar counter, strike and knock down
white man with a pair of brass knuckles;
that lie turned and seeing her, ordered her
to go upstairs. which she did. She could
not rest, however, and creeping down
she peeped into the bar. when she was hor-

body mto all old well under the floor. Upon
this information the police to-day went to
work to find the remains by pulling up the
floor and digging for the hidden well, but
have. as yet, made no discovery.
The whole place, however, will
be thoroughly overhauled. Last fall two
state officials, j. II. Carroll, city treasurer
OF Staunton, and w. Ii. Crawford, of
Bland county, left their homes for Rich
mond. since which time neither of them
have been seen or heard from. and the be-
lief is strongly prevalent that one of them
was Shinnick'S victim. The wife's descrip-
ton of the murdered man agrees with the
appearance of both, but more 50 in regard
to Crawford. The Cincinnati authorities
have been telegraphed to arrest Shinnick if
he can be found.
