Oxford, four miles west of this place.

bachelor, resided with his sister. Miss

Proctor. Tuesday morning Miss VIII.
lisms was sewing for bis sister, Mr..
Orlando Osborn, when Andrews came
ia with an ak. lie asked for Miss Will
hams, who was in the front room with
Osborn. Andrews went in and sat for
a moment by the fire. Then springing
to his feet, without a word OF warning,
he swung his ak aloft, and brought it
down with terrific force on top of Miss
Williams head. She threw up her
arms ia time to partially ward off a
second blow, which gashed the side OF
her head. When disarmed, Andrews
ran to his own house, eighty rods away,
where he drank one-eighth of an ounce
OF sulphate Of strychnine, pulled off his
boots and started for the woods. The
neighbors went in pursuit and found
him half . mile away with his face
buried in the grass by q stream. He
was dead. Miss Williams, whose head
was literally split open. lived for five
hours, but was unconscious.

convict labor and advocates the building of q

The Rejection of the Latter Will Not Neces-

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, Dec. IAN extension for
week was granted by the House to the leave of
absence of Judge Lowry, of Fort Wayne, to-day.
The Judge has not put in an appearance yet, and
is reported to be busily engaged preparing his
contest of Captain Whites seat in the next
House. One of the Judges Indiana friends, who
is looking up all matters of interest in the con-
test. was somewhat taken aback by hearing the
opinion expressed by Representative Springer,
Of Illinois, concurred in by number of other
able lawyers The opinion is based on the COM
mon law statute law and we'll known un written
law and usage in the House. It is that where a
seat is denied member because of ineligibility,
the candidate proving the next highest vote is
not eligible to tho seat, as IN case where the
member elect is denied his seat through fraud
This is the opinion of three or four members
who have long served on the committee on cleo
tions. So if Judge Lowry proves that Captain
White is not entitled to the seat because he was
not naturalized in time the question of who
shall have the seat will go back to the people at
the polls. A contest there, of course, will not
be what Judge Lowry wants, as the people of
the Twelfth district expressed their sentiments
very forcibly last month

That of principal interest was one by Judge
Black, In the case of The State vs. James S.
Payton. This case comes from Christian county.
and the following is its history On the 18th
day Of April, 1885, Payton and his brother,
William. attempted to assassinate L. T. Mat
shews, who was moving his family. Both fired
at him with rifles. Matthews was slightly
wounded, and an infant child Of his, which was
in the arms Of his wife's sister, shot through
the head and instantly killed. Both of the Pay
ton boys were arrested. Upon trial. James s..
Payton was convicted of murder in the first de-
gree. An appeal was taken to the Supreme
Court. where the judgment OF the lower court
was affirmed and Psyton sentenced to be hanged
on Friday, Jan. IA, 1887. Payton is only about
sixteen years old. and il is said that strong
effort will be made to induce Governor Marina
duke to commute his sentence 1t is thought
that the Governor will not interfere. for no per-
son under eighteen years of age can be commit
ted to the penitentiary in this State. and should
the sentence be committed the prisoner could
obtain his freedom by habeas corpus proceed
ings. This has occurred once before, and 1t is
likely that the Governor will. not allow it to hap
sen again.

AN INTERNATIONAL SUIT.

Novel Case Which Is Now Under Argu-
ment In the Supreme Court
WASHINGTON, Dec An interesting and I'M
usual came up for argument in the United
States Supreme Court to-day under the title Of
THE King of the Belgians. by Charles Mali, con-
sui, against the Keeper of the Common Jail Of
Hudson county New Jersey" The facts out of
which this international controversy has arisen
are chiefly as follows: On the 10th of last Octo-
Der, there occurred on board the Belgian steam
ship Noordland, lying at her dock at Jersey
City, fight between her sailors. in the course
Of which one of them, named Wildenhus stabbed
and killed another named Tigens. both Belgian
subjects. The police authorities arrested the
murderer and two other sailors who were wit
pesses of the fight, and imprisoned them in the
Jersey City Jail. The Belgian consul, acting
under instructions from his government, de-
manded the release Of ali the prisoners. upon the
ground that the crime was committed within the
jurisdiction OF the Kingdom OF Belgium, and
that under the law Of nations and the treaties
between the United States and Bel
gum, he, as consul had solo
authority in the premises The demand for the
release of the prisoner was refused whereupan
the consul sued out writ of habeas corpus,
and, upon the dismissal of that writ by The
United States Circuit Court, brought the case 10
this court by appeal The principal question
raised by the appeal as stated by counsel for the
King Of the Belgians, is whether a foreign ma
ton, when it may choose to assert the privilege,
has the exclusive right to control the internal
order OF its own ships both civil and csiminal,
even when in the ports of another nation pro-
vided the tranquility of such other State be not
involved, or persons within its jurisdiction con-
cerned.
Counsel for the New Jersey authorities main
tain that every person coming within the jurss
diction of State ia subject to its laws and owes
local allegiance in return for the protection a.
forded by the government, and that there Is no
law which would allow the crew of any foreign
merchant vessel lying in the port of New York
to slaughter another with impunity and
defy the local authority on the ground that by
international law they must be sent home for
trial

New YORK, Dec. 7.--O'Donovan Rosa, who
was recently deposed from the leadership of the
Fenian Brotherhood, having declared in his pa
per and in published interviews that he had de-
clined to attend the convention at which the de-
position took place, because he had already de-

line Of policy in connection with the United
Irishmen's Society, the Fenian Brotherhood
nave broken the seal of secrecy which has here
tofore been put upon their proceedings,
and have issued a long address to their
friends OH the subject. The address accuses
fsorss zkslSciisU0ds, eAeAefy, inshbordina
tion and many other crimes against the
order They assert that he not only attended
the convention, but for the first time in long
while, paid mp his dues. 30 that he could appear
in good standing; that he packed the convention
by getting his friends in proxies; that these
friends when they learned the facts denounced
him and that he sent other friends, not in good
standing in the order, who did the same when
apprised of the facts, and that he was thereupon
unanimously bounced; and that the United
Irishmen had not had an existence for five years.
The letter continues as follows:
"O'Donoyan kossa says he will still work with

Neither of these were members of the organiza-
tion but he fraternzed with them unknown to
the council To McDermott, who would not be
allowed in the Brotherhood, he gave unknown to

agent Of the Brotherhood. The result
was the life long Imprisonment Of Featherston

The address adds that Rosa has again and
again declined to account for the ''skrmishing
