SALE OF THE .POSTOFFICES.
SOME HISTORY FOR THE HoosIERs.
Men Who Contributed to the ''BIocks-of-
Five Fund Get the Ofices and the Old
Soldiers Get Left-Paying Back the
Dudley Corruption Fund.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. 20.-[Special. ]
1t will be remembered that shortly be-
fore the election the republican county
chairmen were called together to hear the
pitiful appeal of Harrison to raise money
to carry Indiana and save him from the
disgrace OF being elected without the vote
OF his own state. When Harrison had
left the room Mr.. Huston told committee
men that the quick way to raise money
was for them to promise postotfices 20 con-
tributors. The committeeman returned
and mortgaged everything, saving they had
full authority from Harrison. Thomas
Owen was promised apostoffice at Bedford
upon payment to the "blocks-of-five" fund
of one hundred dollars. After the cleo
tion Col. Robertson, an old soldier, came
in as the soldiers candidate. To
complicate matters worse, the poor widow
OF that old republican war-horse, Col.
Friedley, entered the contest. Harrison
and Robertson were old friends, and the
latter felt sure, but Owen had paid for the
postoffice, and the mortgage was foreclOsed
to-day by his appointment.
The next Indiana pOstOtfice fight is that
of Mitchell. 1t was sold to one Woods for
$500, but John Dobson claims he bought
it for his brother for $3.50. To clear his
title of contest, Woods refunded Dobson
his money, but now comes Can't. Burton,
backed by leading citizens and
says Harrison promised it to the
old soldiers. But Harrison has
confirmed the sale OF the Bedford postoffice.
Woods feels confident that the sale OF the
Mitchell postOffice will also be ratified,
he being out S450-S250 paid to secure a
quit claim from DobsOn.
Congressman Shiveiy and wife left to-
night for Pennsylvania to spend Christmas

Solicitor OF the Treasury jerks. They then

luton for a congressional investigation OF

A VeRlTheLe MASSACRE IN OHIO.
Charles sheIar Murders His Wife and Three
Children and Comm t. Suicide.

Charles sheIar Murders His wife and Three
Children and Comm Is Suicide.
NILES, o., Dec. 22.-This community was
startled this evening by the discovery of one
of the most wholesale and bloody butcheres
that ever occurred in this section of the
state. The victims. five in number. are Charles
Shelar and wife and three children. and the
crime is supposed to have taken place at an
early hour this morning.
When the inhuman deed was discovered,
about 5 o'clock this evening all FIVE bodies
were stiff and cold in death, with their throats
cut from ear to ear. Shelar and his wife were
lying together across the foot of the bed
and the five children were on the floor
in different parts of the house. Shelar was
mill-man, and had steady employment, but of
late drank heavily, and it is rumored that he
and his wife did not live happily together.
The theory advanced is that Shelar, in fit of
madness, cut the throats of his wife and
children, and then his own. Shelar and his
wife were born and raised in this city.
The weapon used was a razor, and was pur-
chased by Shelar OF hardware dealer Satur-
day evening. The street in front of the house
at this writing is densely packed with excited
people. all eager to get glimpse OF the ghastly
spectacle.
Kittie Meeker, the little sister Of the mur.
dered woman, caused the discovery of the
tragedy. She went to the house 10 deliver the
evenings milk. as usual, and was unable to
gain admittance to the house. Charles Moss
man was in the vicinity, and she told him
about it. he went with her to the rear of the
house, and finding door open. entered.
The first floor Of the house was deserted, but
a terrible sight met their eyes in the second
story. The dead baby was on the floor of one
room, two murdered children with gaping bloody
throats lay in their bed in another chamber,
while the murderer and his wife were clasped
in the embrace of a bloody death on their
couch.
1t appeared that the wife was the first
victim, and that she made a desperate fight for
life. The broken handle of the razor was
found by her side. Then the husband and
father went 10 the room where the eighteen.
mOnths-old girl lay and nearly severed her
head from her body Then came the bloody
slaughter of the girls aged five and seven
years The murderer then apparently took a
lamp, went to a mirror and deliberately cut his
own throat, and, staggering to where his wife
lay, threw himself upon her body. The scene
of the tragedy was sickening.

GHOULS AT WORK.
The Body of a Washington Lady Disinterred
BY Grave-RObbers.

The Body of "A washington Lady DisInterred
by Gravr-RObbers.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 22.-Grave robbers have
been at work in this city again and tomorrow
DR.. A. c. Adams, demonstrator at one of the
medical colleges, will be brought into court on
a charge of being concerned in the affair. Last
Friday night the police stopped a carriage near
the outskirts of the city and found
in it two bodies, one white and
the other colored. The driver and two
others with the vehicle escaped in the dark
ness, leaving the horse and carriage behind.
1t was at first supposed the bodies came from
the potters field near by, but the body of the
white woman has since been identified as that
of Mrs. Cheek wife of a gentleman living on
S. Carolna-ave., in this city. Her body was
to-day re-interred in the congressional ceme-
terry, from which it had been car
ried away An examination of the
body showed that the ears had been
foully mutlated, and the fingers bruised by the
force with which the robbers had stripped the
body of some costly rings in order that they
might not be held on the serious charge II
caught with the body. The law in this city, it
is maintained, makes no provision .or the pun
ishment Of resurrectionists. The husband Of
Mrs. Cheek, however. threatens to shoot on
sight those concerned in the affair.

Arrived there, the scene was repeated.
The little girl ran to a bystander for pro-

threatened to knock the father down if he
touched her. The child, the father and

yesterday another attempt was made TO

NEw YORK, Dec PA solicitor for aid
in behalf OF the women's hospital OF this
city called upon ex-President Cleveland
to-day and informed him that the use of
his name as one of the contributors to the
support of the hospital would be an excel
lent help to the institution, no matter
how small might be the amount of his
donation. as his name would encourage
others TO subscribe.
Mr. Cleveland said that all other appli-
cants used the same argument. He said
he would like to assist all worthy institu
tions, but his finances would not allow
him to do so, but he would consult Mrs.
Cleveland about this particular request.
Then he added significantly: THE truth
of the matter is that the demands which
are constantly made upon me for aid are
so numerous and come from so many dill
ferent quarters that / have about made up
my mind to leave New York in order to
get away from these requests"

KANSAS CITY, Dec. 20.-By sustaining de-
murrer, Judge Brewer of the u. s. court to-
day decided a point involving the main issues
in the famous Beales land grant case which
involves 60000O00 acres of land in Colorado,
New Mexico aud Texas. The title of the case
pending is: Interstate land company
against the Maxwell land grant company !;
also, Maxwell land grant company against
Vincente Puctecs and others. The decision is
favorable to Maxwell, in that it holds that the
grant to the Interstate land company cannot
hold, for the reasons that concessions mads by
Mexico were never completed. Beales had no
title to any land except what set of to him
by the Mexican government; as Beales claimed
and decided the entire tract of land granted
his titles are void
