managers of railroads and organizations
of railway employees, asking them to CO.

between railway corporations ana their
employees. All railroads addressed are
requested to state if an insurance fund or

right to draw in case Of sickness or acct
dent, or from which payment may be
made TO their families in case o: death.
Where such fund exists full information
is asked as to its modus operandl, the
length of time it has been In existence,
and the feeling in respect to 1t on the part
of the employees. The railroads are
also asked if they provide eating or
lodging houses or reading rooms for
train men when away from home, and al
so if any provision is made tor technical
education in the shops. The railroads
are further requested to state whether or
not there is any recognized system OF pro-
motion in the service Of the company
whereby it NAV be expected the men will
be induced to labor for marked efficiency;
also if there are any special rules in force
to insure the competency OF locomotive
engineers and other train men, The Ia
Dor organizations are requested to give
similar information in regard to any in
surance project they either have now or
have had in operation. They are further
asked il their order insists upon any rules
Of apprenticeship and for the length Of
term fireman or brakeman must serve
before promotion. The organizations are
in addition, asked whether there is any
recognition made Of grades of service OF
engineers and conductors, and whether
promotion to foremanships and like posi-
lions in the shops are made by promotion
or by bringing men from the outside.

An Associated Press dispatch from
Deer Park, Nd, says that Congressman
William Mckinley, of Ohio, one of the
prominent candidates for Speaker, was
with the President a good deal of the
time Thursday, and with him discussed
Ohio politics and the ACCESSIBILITY of con-
vening Congress in extra session. Major
Mckinley thinks an extra session mad
visable, and that Congress could not be
well assembled after hearing from four
new States, before November l., and then
there would be but four working weeks,
and that if, by the death Of Republicans
or the election of new members, the ma
jority be with the Democrats, the Presi-
dent wonld, in calling an extra session,
assume the responsibility for their actions,
while this would not be the case in the
regular session. Mr.. Mckinley returned
home. MIR. Clarkson was with the Presi-
dent again tonight.

AUBURN, N. Y, March t0.-No.
Frances street was the scene of fright
full tragedy just before noon today. The
occupants of the house were Jos. Rus
sell and his wife and two children, aged
and IL years. II is supposed Resell
and his wife had an alteration about a
young man who had recently boarded
with them, when Resell produced re-
volver and shot her in the region OF the
heart. The woman ran out doors and
started for u neighbours but in scaling
a fence fell to the ground dead. Neigh
bors saw her fall and fastened to her
assistance, presuming that she had
simply been stunned.
Upon carrying her into a house and
loosening her dress, blood was discov-
cred and it was found that she was
dead. Ressell's house was next visited
and Resell was found stretched upon
his back on the kitchen floor dead with
IL bullet in his heart. The children
were up stairs during the shooting, and
in their alarm escaped from second
story window. Neither the murdered
woman nor the suicide was heard to ut
ter word after the shooting, and no
writing of any kind was left behind to
explain the real cause of the tragedy.
Resell was about AZ years old. Not
much credence is put in the rumor OF
his wife's intidelity. Not long ago the
woman found keen-edged knife con-
cealed in the house, which she broke
and threw away. The young man who
boarded with them had overheard his
name mentioned by Resell in upbraid-
ing his wife two days before, and yester-
day he packed up his effects and left OF
his own accord.
