stabbed his wife in the abdomen with
pen-knife at an early hour this morning,

he drew the knife and thrust it into her

armed him. Mrs. Kane is still living, but

MIR. CARLIsLE,s SEAT.
The COntest 20 be SETTLED This Week
AffidavitS % be Filed.

There is room for but little doubt that the
Thobe-Carlsle contest win be settled on Satur-
day, as far as the elections committee is con-
cerned. Affidav1ts will be Med that day by Mr..
Carlisle to show that the charges made by Mr..
Sypher and supported by sfidavits were false.
Hundreds Of kilograms have been re-
cefved, called forth by the newspa-
per publications, volunteering testimony as TO
the falsity OF the charg made. Affidavits
from all parts OF the district, sworn TO
oy republicans as well as democrats, will be pro-
duced TO disprove the charges. Ii is under TODD
that the array Of testimony will be Overwhelming.
and Will furnish a complete answer TO all the
charges. 1t Is believed that the answer will be sat
lsfactory TO every member OF the committee. TIE
charge that the names In the poll-books OF seven
precincts were all written In one hand writing,
set forth In an affidavit py a Mr.. Pierce will be
met by numerous aflidavttS by reputable republi-
cans and democrats, who viii declare the state
ment TO he untrue. The tendency OF these ans
wers Will be TO put Mr.. Pierce in an awkward posi-
tfon.
Mr. Carlisle will probably make an affidavit
himself setting forth facts he is personally ac-
Quainted with.
