THE VICTIM OF A CRIME.
Dominick Feeley Was Murdered, No
Drowned.

Dominick Feeley Was Murdered, Not
Drowned.
tits firmly believed that Dominick Feeley,
whose body lies at the undertaking rooms
of Bonney & Stewart, was the victim of a
terrible crime.
The story of the finding of the BODY i'm
shallow water in the edge of White river at
Slaughter Monday morning, and of the
arrival of the brother of the murdered man
just in time to prevent the burial of the re-
mains, has been published. The explana-
ton of Feeley' visit to Slaughter and a full
recital OF the suspicious circumstances sur
rounding the death, were given to Posi-
INTELLIGENCE reporter last night by John
feeiey, the brother, who was Mortified and
crushed by the crime
Dominick Feeley came to Seattle last
November, joining his brother here. and as
both were bricklayers they have worked
together much of the time and shared the
same room at their clearinghouse. DOM
mick left his wife ana three children in st.
raul and sent home money from tame to
tune. A week ago he began to look about
Tor house in quiet neigh borbood for his
family, as he had written them TO Join him
here. Last Friday he went to Tacoma by
~~~' N-AN WIS Dy ran Wnen ne
stopped at Slaughter.
When the body was discovered there was
little thought OF foul play, but after the
identification closer examination was
made. and number of suspicious circnm-
stances brought to light. While the BODY
lay In the water. where it was not more
tnan eighteen inches deep and it was pos
sioie that death had been caused by drown
ing, that idea was given up by those mos
interested after little scrutiny. The hat
OF the dead man still rested lightly upon
his head, and had not beer touched by the
water. The body was not filled with water.
as must have been the case had death
come by drowning. The marks of ylo-
lence upon the face and head became more
distinct and all appearances indicate that
the man was struck down oy an assassin
and afterwards thrown into the water.
1t IS not known that Feeley had any
considerable amount of money with him,
but he carried silver watch and gold
chain, and wore massive gold ring bear

BALLARD AT THE DOOR.
Seattle's Northern Suburb Wants
Come in-Eranchises.a

seattie's Northern suburb wantS to
Come in-Franchises.s
The town OF Ballard will prohAblf peti-
ton to come into the municipality Sf Seat
tie within a few days. A sediment in
favor of annexation has been stSahiy gain
ing ground there for several zASnths, and
it has now crystalized in the fofh OF peti.
ton to the Chamber of Com fierce of the
city of Seattle, asking that bod to urge the
common council to include Ballard within
the proposed extension. This petition it is
thought will be generally signed A prom
inent Ballard man yesterday said: THE
best thing We can do is to incur big in
debtedness-all that we possibly can, ex-
pend the money wisely in making needed
Improvements, and then come into the city
of Seattle with big debt. Then we would
be in good shape so far as improvements
are concerned, and the city of Seattle
would have to pay for them while we are
taxed to help pay the big city's debt.
'Twould equalize matters all around"
The street committee and town council
of Ballard have difficult problem to solve
IN manner that will satisfy ali parties in
terested in the right-of-way of the railroad
companies through the town of Ballard
along Shilshole avenue. Shilshole ave-
nue. is 100 feet wide; the Seattle &
Montana railway modestly asks sixty feet
along the north and east marginal line
of the avenue, and the Seattle, Lake Shore
& Eastern railway last night asked for
thirty feet along the same avenue. Ii these
be granted ten feet will be left for the use
OF the town. The members of the street
committee are anxious to satisfy all part
les, and. at the same time, protect the best
interests OF the town. At present thew
seem inclined to grant TO each road an
equal number OF ieet, some think twenty
feet and others thirty feet ought to be
sufficient for the convenience of both roads.
The right of allowing other roads the use
OF the tracks by paying a reasonable price
therefor will probably be reserved.

The Southern Alliance, of March
18th, 1890, says that on November
22d, 1887, when the Alliance move,
ment in Georgia was weak and needed
support, the Atlanta Constitution pub.
lished an article about the monthly
meeting of the Farmers Alliance at
Newman, in the course of which the
following occurred:
"Al the trouble has been brought
about by a man who says he is from
Texas, and who has been in Georgia
since last June organizing new clubs.
He gets from six to nine dollars for
every club he organizes and three
dollars, half the fee of the local organ.
izer, on all subsequent clubs. Since
June he has organized over a hundred
of such clubs in Georgia, getting at
least $1,000 for the same without
comforting any material benefits. 1t
is true he gives them the pass word
and also the grip which admits mem
oers into the mystic conclave, but
that is their chief benefit so far.

to us the free use of the building for
the fall of 1890. The National Farm
ers' Alliance and Industrial Union of
America, by request of the delegation
from Florida, will convene in Jack
sonville on the first Tuesday in De-
cember next, and my chief desire in
this connection is, that the Florida
Farmers Alliance shall meet and greet
the brethren of the North and West
with the finest agricultural and horti.
cultural display ever put on exhibition
in the Southern States, and that at
least one thousand representative far
mers attend said meeting to welcome

awe want no sectional competitive
display, but we want Florida brought
from every section of the State, with
al her magnificent rces, and
spread out in the Sub-Tropica build
ing, so that for one to stand in the
midst of the Sub-Tropical hall he
could view and comprehend the State
in all her magnificent splendor.
"To accomplish this, the work
must begin now; l, therefore, ask the
earnest cooperation of my successor
in Office, and of every member of the
Alliance in every section of the State,
to lend me a helping hand in collect
ing the exhibits and placing them in
order by December first of this year,
"It is due the railroad officials that
I should inform you that they have
very c%ourteously rendered us the free
use Of their several lines Of road, to
bring to Jacksonville any article from
any section of the State that we may
want to exhibit. | would earnestly
recommend that this body select one
efficient manfrom each Sub and County

shall be to urge the brotherhood to
bestir themselves to show to the world
that, while Florida has many indus
tries, the farmer excels them all, and,
therefore, make ready for the great

Every farmer with legislative or
congressional aspirations is prompt at
all their meetings, and loud in their
d~enunciations of the merchants gen
orally. Their declaration of principles
would rival the creed Of Mohamet and
excite the envy of Confucius in his
dream of a perfect state of felicity
for mankind. 1t sounds like extracts
from Plato and Socrates, and takes on
a touch of the ideal. +
Their declaration of principles seem
to be the theories of Henry George
boiled down, spliced with socialism
and favored with extracts of granger
ism. Two members in this county
have already declared themselves, it
is learned, as candidates for the legis-
lature. They expect to ride into
power upon the blinded zeal of their
deluded brothers"
The above quotation shows how the
Consultation stood two years ago in re-
gard to the Alliance. After the
organization became powerful, how
ever, the paper concluded, as a matter
of policy, to come over on the popular
side, and began to champion the cause
of the farmers.
The moral of it all SIS: "Watch
those who kick you while you are
down and offer to aid you in your
prosperity"

THE s~UB-TREAsURY PLAN.
Bro. Evans Continues the Subject.

Bro. Evans Continues the Subject.
Mr.. EDITOR = In my first article l
promised to continue the subject, by
first pointing our how the Sub-Treas-
ury Bill might be changed to carry
out the idea better. But on reflection
L a see nc reason to do so, because
of radical defects in the system itself,
as it was given from the St. Louis
meeting which must prevent its sdop-
ton, and if adopted prevent any good
results to flow from it, except perhaps
some of a negative character.
If this oil raj gotten up for the
sole purpose of bringing disgrace, dis.
credit and disunion to our grand and
noble order, l must say that it was
well drawn, though 1 think overdone
ven for that. But thank God it
stands no more show of becoming a
law than Jay Gould does of being
translated as a saint.
AS to the system the plan itself as it
now stands, it cannot be made of any
use except to a few rich cotton raising
counties, and cotton is the only staple
article mentioned which can be safely
stored tor advances to be made upon
1t. Ii wheat was all kiln dried and
the weevil could be kept out of it, it
too could be safely stored.
There are however some features of
the plan which can be used in connec-
ton with another very different plan
which l will draft when l get through
my lecturing trips and get rested.
My plan will not only settle the whole
financial problem, but will also fix our
business matters upon a sound and
practical basis. Truth, justice, econo.
my and honesty will be it's four O r
ners' The great enemy and dragon
with millions of horns, heads and
devil fish suckers our order has to
meet, is the comforting power of
money which will be freely used to
