Ktlled by Tramps.

CHICAGO, April 4.-There seems to
be little doubt that the men who killed
Waterman Kreigh and fatally wounded
his companion, BRASIL, on Chicago
and Alton freight train last night,
were tramps. For a time it was
thought that the strikers were the as
sailants, but this theory was soon ex-
plOded. There has been no trouble on
the Alton and the two watchmen are
old employees. Their business was to
escort freight trains to the outer limits
Of the yards, keeping a look out for
thieves, who have given the railroads
great trouble in the yards. The con-
ductor of the train says the watchmen
found three men on a car soon after the
train pulled out. Brassel di ed this
morning. A man with much batter
ed face was arrested IN the vicinity OF
the tragedy to-day on suspicion of be-
ing one of the murderers. He refuse d
to give his name.
