Mrs. BEEN Tells Her Story to the Union
Veteran Club Committee.

Mrs. BEEN Tells Her Story to the Union
Veteran Club Committee.
CHICAGO, May 9.-The Union Veteran
club committee began yesterday its investi-
cation of the death of Gen BEEN. The widow
was present and gave her story over
again exactly as she has before, except that
she admitted that her life with Gen. BEEN
was not happy, and that she had practically
been separated from him for two years. She
also said that she had letters from the general
in which he threatened to kill himself, but
they were in Europe where her trunks are as
it was her intention to return thither.
Lawyer Sutherland, Mrs. Beem's attorney
in their suit in will contest in Wisconsin,
stated that Gen. BEEN had been so
unreasonably jealous that he had in
tercepted and possessed himself Of all the
correspondence which passed between them
when Mrs. BEEN was in Europe. The way
in which he did it was ingenious. Upon one
of his (Sutherlands) letter-heads he had
written to Mrs BEEN in Paris a change Of adj
dress, telling her to send letters and dis
patches to him at certain place in Mil
waukee. Her letters thus fell into the pos
session of BEEN through the agency of a
friend at the address given Through a
friend in Paris the general had caused him
to be notified of change of Mrs. Beem's ad-
dress in that city, and in this way his letters
and kilograms also were forwarded to Gen.
BEEN.
Mrs. BEEN when she first came here de-
clared her husband and her had been very
happy, and her purpose in doing was to
keep the family skeleton in the family closet,
but as the investigation was determined upon
she concluded to tell it all, and it is stated
that the reason she gave for ceasing to live
with the general was entirely satisfactory to
the committee.

beneficiaries Of the tariff feed and grow
fat off him. The high duties do him MT
good, for he sells his wheat at a price de-

An import tax of 81 q bushol on wheat
would profit the Illinois farmer not ont
cent. The worlds demand regulates his
prices inexorably.
If the farmers of the land really knew
how large a share of their incomes i:
taken from them in this way, they would
at once be up in organized rebellion to dc
battle at the polls.
Let any farmer, righteously exclaims
an exchange, who wants to appreciate the
wrong that is done him, draw up bill OF
costs against the government for the
amount which he pays out in support Of
d tariff from which he gets no benefit:
The shoes, breeches, coat, hannels and
hat which he wears are taxed.
Inc ploW ne SulueS ana the harness. on
his horse are taxed.
The mower with which he cuts his
grain and the thresher that fails 1t out
are taxed.
The jute bag for which he pays five
cents, he could get for three if jute were
not taxed.
The boards out of which his house is
built and the paint which covers it are
taxed.
The paper that hangs on his walls and
the carpet that lies on his floor are
taxed.
The stove on which his wife cooks and
the gown that she wears are taxed.
The coal in the stove and the blankets
on the bed are taxed.
The medicines he swallows and the
coffin he is buried in are taxed
SO from the cradle to the tomb the
