A Suicide at Sco1ia

SCOTIA. Neb., August l9.- Especial to The
BEE On Friday morning, the 10th inst,
George w. Turner was found lying dead in
a corn field about three miles southeast Of
this village, and on Saturday morning a
coroners jury was empanelled, who, after
hearing the evidence and examining the
body, returned verdict of self-destruction.
The evidence before the coroner's jury dis
closed the facts that Mr.. Turner formerly
resided in Fairfield county, Ohio, but had
been spending the winter and summer at
Mr.. Gardner's, in this county; that on Sat
urday, the 10th, Mr.. Gardner and wife, in
the evening, came to Scotia to spend the
night and next day with relatives here,
leauing Mr. Turner at home TO take care
of the stock. On their return the
alarmed, as he was somewhat of an eccen-
trio character and mad spoken of going to
visit a friend in another neighporhood. On
inquiry they found that he had not been to
that friends house. Search was instituted
and his body was found about half a mile
from NJ. Gardner's house in the corn field.
When found his revolver was two feet from
him with one chamber empty, the bullet hav-
ing entered his mouth and passed out back
OF his ear. In his clothes Were found S4l5;
he was said to have been man of a good
deal of means. The people where he was
residing now notice that he has been acting
in a peculiar manner for some months, but it
was thought by them to be eccentrlcties of
his. No reason is given for his suicide ex-

Tn, FIRE. mont Camp Meeting.

FREMONT, Neb., August 19.-TSpecIal TO
THE BEE. The Methodist camp meeting,
which has been in session here during the
past ten days. came to close this morning,
though yesterday was practically the last
day of public worship. The tents on the
ground were to-day taken up and the devout
Methodsts and their friends who have been
enjoying festival of worship, have for the
most part returned to their homes through
out the conference. Yesterday was the big
gest day of the session, there being more
than three thousand persons on the ground
during the day. The principal services Of
the day were conducted as usual by Revival
lists Potter and Miller, whose efforts have
been so fruitful of good during
the meetings. Two hundred and ten con.
versions have been made during the ten days
of the meetings. Elder Potter said he re-
garded it as the best camp meeting he had
ever attended, and "Hallelujah" Bowen, of
Chicago, a grayhalred veteran of eighty
three, who has attended nearly one hundred
camp meetings confirmed the testimony of
Elder Potter. Those having it in charge are
also highly pleased with the results. The
experiment of charging small admission fee
is conceded success. In thus way the eX-
penses are easily met and none are kept out
who really desire to go. Harry Dale, of Illi-
nois. aud Singer Miller will carry on the
good work few days longer at the Meth
odist church in this city.

who was sent here by Governor Lowry to
arrest Kiirain, does not think Sullivan will
be required to serve out his full time. Said
he: "rm satisfied Sullivan will be pardoned
by Lowry, as will also Kilrain if tried and
sentenced. In fact, Governor Lowry stated
that he would act leniently with them and
lntimated that he would pardon them"
"Why, then" he was asked, twas Gov
ernor Lowry so anxious for their arrest!"
"The men openly violated the law and the
governor had to stand considerable abuse
from certain sources. His honesty in the
matter was questioned and ho was therefore
determined to get them. After the law has
been sufficiently vindcated he will, in my
opinion act leniently and impose fine"
kilrain is keeping very shady. He spent
Sunday very quietly ut his home. Referring
to the severe punishment meted out to Sulli-
van, he said, to-day:
81 told my friends that the affair would re.
suit more seriously than they imagined, but
they still insisted there was too much fool
ing over the trial to end in anything Twelve
months is good deal, but l can stand it as
well as Sullivan, and feel none the worse,
either, after the year is up"

THE SMELL MURDER.
Pinkerton Says Tascott Did Not Kill
the Million aire

CHICAGO, August l9.-[Special Telegram to
THE BEE IA dispatch from San Fran
cisco correspondent of one of the morning
papers has au interview with w. A. Pinker-
ton, who is on the slope. 1t was about Willie
Tascott. Pinkerton was quoted as saying
that he thought Tascot. was hiding in New
York or San Francisco. kept IN close con-
cealment by the men whose assistant he had
been in the series of purglaries which pre-
ceded the murder of Millionaire Smell. He
declared his belief that Tascott never shot
Smell, and did not plan or execute the bur-
glary of the house on Ada street. According
to Mr.. Pinkerton, Tascott was a sort Of pilot.
That there were two men besides rascott In
the house Mr.. Pnkerton declared the pres
ence of two bullets mt different angles in SHELLS
body proved conclusively. The interview
closed with the statement that Mrs. SMELLS
offer of u reward for the arrest OF Tascott
was evidence that she wanted him only as a
means of discovering the real criminal. All
this was read to Mr.. Stone this morning.
"Bosh, all bosh," said he. MIR Pinkerton
can talk at that rate as long as he wants to,
but it won't alter the facts. Why, do you
think Mrs. Smell would offer $4,000 reward
for Tascott If she didn't want himl We
know what we want him for and we don't
propose to give it to the public until we get
ready
Have you any detectives working on the
casein
"Well, Pm working on the case in con-
junction with other men, | haven't all the
detectives in the United States, that's Il fact,
but the" cost so much with their SS day
and expenses, and a man might spend for
tune and be none the wiser A reward of
$4,000 ought to be enough to stimulate their
energies. | have all along thought that
there were others besides rasc,ott present
when Mr.. Smell was murdered. You re-
member that the bullet in MIR. Snelrs brain
was of 44calibre. while that in his heart was
a 81. But we want Tascott. If he were not
guilty of the murder, why does he keep
away so longi He fmust know that in time
he will be caught. Somebody will betray
him for the sake of that $4,000 reward,
which will be kept standing as long as Mrs.
Smell is alive, and possibly for while after
ward. If he had given himself up ten days
after the murder he might have stood
chance of beng believed to be innocent, but
it is too late now"
