that tie victory of the Democracy was

a sweeping victory. We held the house
from that time until the election before
THIS, when the country thought we had
proposed radical measure. and we lost
the present house. The conservative
people Of the country are very sensi-

he radical. They have repudiated the
Republicans for their radical measures
The senator was asked if he thought
the victory would be lasting-if it

COURSE" he said. eff they are cautious
and conservative they may expect a
long lease of power" Senator Dolph,

were inactive. while those on the other
side of the question were working with
all their might. 1.-The manufacturers,

the Mckinley bill was passed and they
did not care any more about politics.
They did not come uD and take an act

that the result would have been differ

been delayed until after the election.
The inactivity of the manufacturers
and the artificial increase of prices hurt

THREE THRoATs CUT.
Awful Crime OF Mother Crazed
by RELIGION.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 5.-One of the
most horrible crimes which has been
committed in Philadelphia for many
years was perpetrated early this morn
ing in West Philadelphia. 4 mother,
undoubtedly crazy on religion, killed
one of her children, attempted to MUIR
der another, and then tried to end her
own life. Joseph Lamprecht and his
wife, Barbara, had seven children,
ranging in age from six months to
eight years. The husband and father
is in the employ of the Philadelphia
Traction company. This morning Mrs.
Lamprecht called her husband to break
fast about O'clock, and after he had
finished the meal he started for his work.
He had barely left his home when his
wife caught up large butcher knife,
and. brandishing it over her head. ran
from one room to another. muttering in
coherently and declaring that she
wanted to go to heaven. Mary, her
siX-year-old daughter, had come down
stairs TO bid her father goodbye, and
she was the first of the children whom
the crazy mother saw. Catching the
little one up in her arms she forced the
child's head back and then deliberately
drew the knife across her throat. Then
she dropped the little one to the floor
and made her way to the room occupied
by herself and husband. and in which
her six-months-old babe was lying
asleep in the bed. She drew the knife
across the infants throat and then
called to the neighbors for assistance.
When they arrived the babe was dead
and the mother lay beside it with q gap
ing wound in her throat. The mother
and Mary were taken to the hospital
and both may die.

KANSAS CITY. Mo-, Nov. CD. a.
GreeveI, the well known cattle dealer OF
this city, was shot and fatally wounded
by Charles Clifford, New York travel
ing salesman, at the Hotel An trews'
Greever had paid considerable atten-
tion to Mrs. Clifford, and her husband
suspected that their relations were not
entirely innocent. He abSented hiui-
self from his apartments this afternoon
TO give Greever an opportunity to call
upon Mrs. Clifford. He secreted hiIl-
self across the street and saw Greeyer
enter the hotel, and after waiting few
moments he proceeded to his apart
ments and tried the door. 1t was
locked. He crawled out of the hall
window onto balcony and pro-
ceeded by it to his bedroom window,
which he entered. He tried the door
leading into his parlOr, and that was
also locked. He heard scuffle and be-
seeching cries from his wife, and then
heard the key turned in the door. He
burst into the room and demanded an
explanation. Mrs. Clifford explained
that Greever had made insulting prOpo-
sitions to her and that she was strug-
Cling to free herself from his embrace
when her husband appeared. Clifford
thereupun drew his revolver and shot
Greeyer four times in the left side.
Greever was taken to his home. He
will die. He is wealthy and will leave
an estate valued at quarter OF million.

for Mrs. Ball, the proprietor, with the 1nten-
ton of paying my board bill. just before go
ing, ordered the IiverymHn to hitch up my
team I'd the buggy. The liveryman is across,
the street. said that would be back in five
minuIes. When / went up, called tor Mrs.
Ball. She was gone, and Mrs. Clifford was
there and asked me into her bedroom, saying
that she would get Mrs. Ball. She talked
with me there for O few minutes, when l said
that my time was up, and would have to go.
just as l arose to go, Clifford jumped in
through an open window and said:
Throw up your hands, with vile epithet.

Il will not throw up my hands under
such circumstances and started TO walk out
of the door. D,
Mr., Clifford shot me in the back, the first
shot taking effect. He fired four shots after
wards. but they all missed me.
subsequently, to a reporter, Greever
said he thought the scheme of Clifford's
was to backmail him. He said if he
had had revolver it would never have
happened.
