BENwoOD NEWS.

The police force received notification
from Bellsire Friday to arrest one John
Flsnghsn, who would probably be found
in his boat house, tied up on this side OF
the river, on the charge of assault and bat
terry. After some difficulty the officers
succeeded in lauding their man in the lock-
up. He was held some time, and no ons
appearing to substantiate the charge, he
was released. He had not long been gone,
however, when q man with his arm IN
sling and used up appearance in general,
accompanied by q Bellsire policeman,
came over in search of him, and to state
the case. The man had made good use of
his time, and could not DO found. The
man swearing out the warrant for the ar
rest of Flanghen for assault says his name
ia George Woolwsvery, of Point Pleasant,
and gives the following account Of the
affair: That he was engaged by Flsnghen
several months since to 90 with him on
his boat and help him in the ostensible
business of selling coffee boilers; that they
had worked q number Of towns along the
river, and he (Woolwavery) had never re-
esived any remuneration for his
services, and while in Martins
Ferry, last weak, he collected
about $40, and the weather be-
ing so wintrish, his need
of another coat was forced
upon him, and he kept Sc out of the $40
to purchase that article of apparel. They
came down to Bellsire, where Flanghen
had him arrested for embezzling said So,
bat the case was dismissed and Flanghen
sand that he was going to sell the boat, and
hasteued down to the boat. When Wool
wayery arrived on the hank the boat house
was floating out on the water. He secured
the services OF two colored boys to row him
ont TO il, be having no money and owning
some traps on the boat When they got to
the boat house he claims that FlsDghen
struck at him with an axe. He threw mp
his arm 10 save his head and the axe
grazed his arm. When the man struck at
him again the blow was received on his
left arm and deep cash was cut in it just
below thes shoulder, and another blow
broke the bone above the elbow.
He fell back into the skiff
and was rowed back 10 Bellaire, where he
received the necessary surgical attention
and that he was too weak to come ever
until to-day. According TO his statement
he has been badly treated and feels despon-
dent that the man got away, but is hope
full that he will be found and brought to
the bar of juetice.

Is1r THE MAN FROM rExAsl

A contemporary announces its belief
that the mysterious London murderer,
whose victims are women, Is the mysteri-
Gus Texas murderer of two years ago.
IL il now announced that the London
murderer has killed another woman, his
fifth victim within few weeks.
These five women have sll been muir
dered in the same manner, at about the
same hour and in the same locality. Our
readers who have followed these remsrka-
BILE cases will recollect that the assassin
always pounesd upon the women In the
street just about daybreak. Aftsr killing
them he mutilated their bodies in q shock
ing fashion, and then disappeared, leaving
NO trace behind him. OF course, the po-
lice and the people have their theories, and
one of them is that this unknown murderer
ia 8 monster or lunstie who has sworn TO
kill twenty women and then give himself
up to justice.
Suppose we try another theory. In the
present generation the London murders
have only bean matched by the horrible
tragedies in Texas nearly two years ago.
The Texas man, like the London monster,
always rejected women for his victims.
He assaulted them when they were alone,
and muiilated their bodies. He killed
- -..-->o.. l.. Arat;, and aavaral in
another town. His movements were so
secret that the police could lind no clew.
The women who were murdered were not
robbed, and they were not known to have
an enemy in the world.
The Texas and London murders are pre-
cisely alike. There is the same absence OF
q reasonable motive. the same grotesque
brutality in the mutilations, the same
mystery, and the same suspicion that the
criminal Is . monster or 3 lunstic, who has
declared war literally to the knife against
all womankind.
Is the London assassin the man from
Texas?
Why notP In our recent annals Of crime
there has been ne other man capable Of
committing such desda. The mysterious
crimes in Texas have ceased; they have
lust commenced in London. Is the man
from Texas at the bottom of them allP
II he 10 q monster or lunstic, he may
Be expected to appear anywhere. The fact
that he Is no longer 1t work in Texas
argues his presence somewhere else. His

IT IS now said that the Senate tariff bill
will never be reported. This is startling,
in view of the fact that it has already bsen
made public by enterprising newspapers
and the senate's policy usdeclared. There
appear to be entirely too many political
cooks in the Senate and they are making a
terrible mess Of it. The refusal of that
body st this stage of the proceedings to re-
port it's bill could, naturally, only mean
one thing-that it didn't like it.
