And she said the poor red Indian and the

But the cowboy she hated, for she heard he

CHICAGO'S NATURAL GAS,

Brewer Cooke Sure He Has Dis.
covered the Real Article.
CHICAGO, Jan. 1.-There were a mum.
Der of visitors to-day at the brewery
where natural gas has been discovered,
but they found no gas On exhibition.
Brewer Cooke allowed the flame Of
natural gas to go out at his establish
ment with the old year. after exhibiting
it to thousands of spectators for ten
days. The gas is still there. OF that
there is no doubt, but Mr.. Cook desires
to rig up pipes and erect a gasometer
to catch the gas for practical utility.
So he shut down the machinery
which pumped the gas in from the lake
and the erection of pipes and a recep-
tacle Will take about ten days, during
which time no water, and consequently
no gas will be pumped. Mr.. Cooke feels
confident that when he resumes the
pumping process the gas will come as
before. He made several tests before
he decided to suspend gas pumping for
any length of time by stopping the en-
glneS and allowing all the water and
gas to run out of the supply pipe. Each
time the gas came with the resumption
of pressure, which establishes the fact
that the source of the gas is at the end
OF the supply pipe to stay. When the
apparatus for receiving the gas is per.
fected, and if the pressure proves suffi.
cient, Mr.. Cooke W ii operate his boil,
erS and machinery with natural gas.

KNOWS "A GREAT DEAL.
James DOnOhue Tells of the Con-
spiracY to Murder Mrs. Mellen.

James DOnOhue Tells of the Con-
spiracy to Murder Mrs. Mellen.
CHICAGO, Jan. flames Donohue,
the noted gambler who was employed
in Boston to murder the daughter-in-
law of the rich HOtelkeeper Mellen, of
Baltimore, and who was four months
ago reported to have been shot dead in
Winnipeg, has turned up in this city.
An interview with DOnOhue, published
to-day, says he is going back to Boston
to face charge of bigamy, which he
asserts has no backing except what was
given it by Mellen's counsel.
Donohue relates what is said
to be the first complete
story of the conspiracy to murder young
Mrs. Mellen, whose marriage had never
been made public and who was cOnsd-
cred by the wealthy hotel proprietor far
below his sons social station. The:
salient feature of DonOhue'S narrative
is the claim that he went into the con-
Spiracy with the full knowledge and ap-
prOval of Chief Inspector Hanscom and
inspectors Geraughty and Houghton, of
the Boston police, the object being
to sift the matter to the bottom.
Donohue says he at first believed that the
overtures to him to commit the crime
were part of plot to ruin him, bitter
fight being in progress at that time to
break up the gambling fraternity in
Boston. Afterward, when it was found
the cabal was what it purported to be,
Donohue, who had been in the Federal
secret service during war times, was in
duced by the police to follow the matter
to the end. The exposure of the CON
spiracy, the flight of the elder Mellen
and the imprisonment of the latters
confederate, Mrs. Coolidge. were all,
cooperation with the police of Boston
and Baltimore.

COLUMBUS, Tex, Jan. 1.-The colored
boy, William Washington, who was sus-
pected of the murder of Mrs. Mary
Miller near Ellinger, was captured by
Shariff Townsend and his deputies at
New Ulm in the adjoining county, and
brought to Ellinger yesterday under a
heavy guard. Washington has made a
full confession to Sheriff Townsend.
He says he knew Mrs. Miller was alone
with the children. Just as she had
put out the light he entered the
room and grabbed her about the
waist. Washington says she struck
him and screamed. He struggled with
her and attempted to cut her throat in
the bed room, but she got loose and ran
out into the yard. He pursued and
caught her just as she entered a field
adjoining the house. He says he threw
her down. cut her throat and afterward
accomplished his purpose. She was
dead, he declares, when he left her.
Washington will be lynched before
many hours. 1t is proposed by some
that he be slowly tortured to death.
The general feeling is that hanging or
shooting is an inadequate penalty for
his awful crime.

Copyright Cable to the Globe
LONDON, Jan. 1.-The publication of
a resume of the forged documents and
correspondence designed to place the
cZar and Prince Bismarck in false posi-
tions has had beneficial effect. and the
suspicion is rapidly growing that Prin-
cess Clementine, the mother of Prince
Ferdinand, is at the bottom of the plot.
Prince Ferdinand's tenure, precari0us
from the moment he first set foot in
Bulgaria, has at no time been as critical
as now. His own ministers, several of
whom We're with difficulty persuaded to
accept office, and at the last moment
agreed to do SO. upon being assured that
Ferdinand had been promised the sup
port the forged letters purpOrted to
show, are fast turning against him, in
dignant and eXasperated at the trick
they have been the victims of. Should
the suspicious of Princess Clementine's
completely be confirmed, it is unlikely
that Prince Ferdinand will remain in
Bulgaria long enough to witness the in
evitable entry of Russian troops into
Sofia. The dispatches received at the
foreign office last evening with refer
ence to the attitude OF Russia were of
most pacific and reaSSuring character

A POLICE OBEETSK.
A Plan to Raise Mammoth Shaft
to the Murdered Officers.

CHICAGO, Jan. 1.-Much interest has
been developed locally by the latest
suggestion regarding the proposed
monument to commemorate the valor of
the police at the Haymarket riot Ed
win Lee Brown, prominent member
of the Citizens association, in an inter-
view to-day gives the details of the idea.
The plan is to purchase the. mammoth
rough shaft of granite near Rockland,
Me-, and fashion it into the taIlest
Obelisk i'll the world. The largest Obelisk
now standing is the one at the Vatican
i'll Rome. 1t is los feet in height and
weighs $40 tons. The one in New York
is siXty-nine and one-half feet in height,
weighing 224 tons. The proposed obe-
liSk would be erected at the center OF
the Haymarket square, and would be
1l5 feet high, not counting sub
structure thirty-five feet in height. Its
weight would be go tons. Mr.. Brown
estimates the cost, including transporta-
ton by way of the st. Lawrence river
and the great lakes, at 100000. He
thinks that sum, for the project in view,
could be raised with even greater ease
than the $1,000 originally proposed,
which has already been largely ex-
ceeded by contributions mainly in
dimes and quarters

WITH AN AK.
A Baltimore Boy Splits Open His
Mothers Skull.

BALTIMORE, Jan. IA horrible trag-
edy occurred this morning when the
old year was but thirty minutes gone
at 31O Duncan alley, the home of Mrs.
Margaret Conroy and her son. Stephen
j. Steve and a companion named Pat
rick O'Donnell had been spending the
last hours of the old year in the house
drinking whisky. and both got drunk.
A quarrel arose and Conroy, becoming
enraged, seized an ak and struck O'Don-
nell terrific blow Oh the head, telling
him to the floor. He then threw his
victim into the street. Mrs. COnroy up
braided her son for his murderouS
assault, when he turned upon her and
struck her on the head three times
with, the axe, cleaving her skull and
laying bare the brain. She died in
stantly. A few minutes later a cousin
of O'DOnnell passed down the alley and
found the bleeding and unconscious
O'Donnell at the spot where Conroy had
thrown him. An officer was notified
and O'DOnnell taken to the hospital.
He is still living. When the officer en-
tered the house of the Conroys he found
the body of the aged mother lying on
the floor in pool of llood and the
matricide i'll bed, He was hauled out,
but refused to say anything and was
hurried Off to the police station.

THEY LACKED NERVE.
Burglars Make an Unsuccessful
Attempt to Rob a Bank.

Attempt to Rob a Bank.
CHICAGO, Jan. IA daring attempt
to rob the Drovers' National bank at the
Union stock yards was made last night.
That the thieves were unsuccessful in
obtaining $4,000 cash locked in the
vaults was the result only of their lack
of nerve at a critical moment. When
an emplOye, Charles Thompson, opened
the bank to-day he found the interior in
confusion. 1t was evident at glance
that an effort had been made to blow
open the vault. There is no watchman
at the bank, the police station being but
a block distant. In company with the
police Thompson soon found that three
men probably had effected an entrance
building, while a fourth stood guard,
after having removed ladders which
had been obtained at paint shop near
by. The blinds were pulled
down, hole drilled near the lock in tie
iron door of the vault, and just as the
noisy whistles in the packing houses
and on locomotives were blowing out
the old year, SiX-inch dynamite car
fridge was inserted in the hole and
touched Off. The explosion, which had
been deadened by horse blankets, at
tracted no notice in the general din, but
too much dynamite had been used and
the knob indicator was destroyed.
Afraid to try another explosion, the
thieves seem to have worked on with
jimmieS and drills until, disgusted with
the slow progress made, they gave it up
as bad job, and quietly dropped out of
the skylight into the alley way and made
off in the darkness of the first hours of
the new YEAR
