it shall be lawful to refuse any deposit of

Of silver in which gold and silver are
combined no allowance shall be made

termination Between the Leagues.
New YORK, May 8.-President A. G.
Spaldlng of the Chicago National
League base ball club talked with a
reporter to-day in regard to the base
ball situation and signs he read in the
skies. MI. Spalding said: "One league
or the other must 60 to the wall; thew
cannot go on as they are now doing, each
cutting the others throat. The public
is getting overdosed with base ball, or
rather the fight for patronage between
the two leagues. In view of the past
history of their players, the brotherhood
clubs should draw far better than
they do, for they contain
most popular with the crowds in days
gone by: On the part of the National
league I freely confess that we are not
drawing satisfactory crowds. If there
were an element of antagonism manifest
between the two leagues, both might
prosper: There are enough people in
terested IN the great national game to
support both organizations handsomely.
AS the situation stands, however, there
IS no money in it for anybody. The two
opposing leagues are waging a war of
determination. It cannot last. One or
the other must give way"

A Tragedy at NIazeppa.

ST.. PAUL, May 9.-Pioneer Press, Me-
zeppa, Mimi, special: Constantine
schoffer, with his wife and year old child,
lived four miles east of here. A
neighbor went to their house on an er-
rand to-day and not being able to call out
the family went to a large stock barn and
found about 20 head of cattle in a famish-
ing condition. He then entered the
house and found the bodies of Schoffer
and his wife and child on the floor in the
bedroom. AS far as can be discovered,
the facts are that Schofer killed his wife
and child with a hammer, dragging them
out of the bed onto the floor. The wife
lies with her face down, the babe parti-
ally under her, and Schofer across them
both with his throat cut with a razor.
The indications are that he had com
mitted the deed Sunday night and
before he had prepared for bed, as he
had all his clothes on excepting his
boots and stockings; he had washed his
feet and put his stockings on the stove
to dry; cut his throat in the kitchen,
then walked into the bedroom and fell
across the body of his wife. She was a
handsome, lovable woman and a fayorite
among her acquaintance. He, being a
passionate man and very emotional.
probably committed the deed in a ft Of
passion or insanity. No other cause ia
assigned. They had been married two
years.

Reduction of Railroad Rates,

ST.. PAUL, May 12.-The st. Paul &
Milwaukee road to-day announced lower
raters between this city and Kansas City.
Heretofore there has been one rate, $14.20
for first-class and there was no second
class rate. The reduced rates are $11
and So, first and second-class, from Kan
sas City to St. Paul or to Minneapolis,
and $40 and 81 from st. Paul or Mime
apolis to Kansas City. General passen-
ger agent Kenyon announced this after
noon that or May Is, the Burlington will
reduce present north bound rates be-
tween Chicago and st. Paul from SO and
81 to SO first class and SIS second class,
assigning as reason therefor the fact that
similar rates have been quoted between
Chicago and the Missouri river and that
st. Paul is entitled to the same reduction.
This re-opens the ball and gives fresh i'm
petus to the most protracted passenger
rate struggle the northwest has ever
known. The rates to the river will again
be cut and the Burlington will probably
give the twin cities the benefit of the
reduction.

"A Chicago Doctor Plays the Part of q
Lotharlo and a Swindler.
CHICAGO, May 9.-Extensive insurance
frauds form the basis of the charge
against DR.. Meyer, news of whose arrest
at Denver was received tonight. The
doctor has had a sensati onal career in
Chicago, being at one time accused of
poisoning M of his patients, Henry
Goldman, a well-to-do citizen. The sup
posed chief motive for the crime was
Geldman's money. Coupled with this
was the gossip that Meyer was playing
the role of Lothario with the wife of
Goldman. Following Geldman's death
she married DR.. Meyer, but afterwards
they separated owing to the suspicion
on her part, it is reported, that
the doctor intended eventually killing
her: The wife is reported to be
under arrest. With Meyer in Denver is
another woman, a daughter Of @. G.
Dressell al old gentleman in feeble health.
The aged father-in-law Dressell, is al
legged to have been insured by Meyer in
the Germanla life insurance company of
Chicago. for $5,Cc The fraud consisted
IN the presenting of a bogus Dressed to
the examiners in the person of a robust
person in the prime of life. Meyer was
the consulting physician of the Germania
company, and since the discovery of the
Dressell case, a further examination
has led to the unearthing of
a number of similar instances of sharp
practice on the part of Meyer. The Chi
cago police have been on the doctors
trail for some time. They had been To-
Gated in Indiana, but at, the critical mo-
ment he eluded them and fed west. The
wife came to Chicago to settle a number
of matters left unattended to by the doc
tors hurried departure from here. It
was by tracing her subsequent move

Only a Truce.

CHICAGO, May st is understood the
truce between the coal mine owners of
Northern Illinois and their employers, ar
ranged yesterday, will probably be but a
temporary one, and that next fall there
will probably be a strike of all the min
ers in the state. The leaders thought it
best to give in now, for the reason that
it is the wrong time of the year to strike,
and because the miners in the southern
part of the state are not organized. This
will be attended to during the summer
and next fall the demand OF the miners
will be renewed.

Fight in Chicago is Renewed Again.

Iuste"d of Being Ended, the Carpenters'
Fight in Chicago is Renewed Again.
CHICAGO, May 1O.-The old master
carpenters association, which refused to
take part in the arbitration proceedings
with the striking carpenters, is making a
strong fight to secure men. It is form
ing a union of men in opposition to the
regular union. The carpenters council
secured the presence here of a govern
ment agent to look out for Canadian car
penters imported under contract,
and have $50 pickets out
watching all the contracts in
hands of the old association. In the
meantime the new association is receiv-
ing accessions to it's ranks and nearly all
the union carpenters are at work. The
old bosses Of the association are making
a strong fight against the new associa-
ton. Which is chiefly made up of men of
small means. The old association has
made arrangements with dealers in lum-
Der and other building supplies, by
which the latter have agreed not
to sell to new bosses except
for cash, which will cripple many of
them seriously, as thirty to sixty days
time is allowed to old bosses. The lat
ter have also decided to bid for all con-
tracts in competition with the new
bosses at prices which will allow of lit
tie or no profit. The union carpenters in
their f light will rely upon their ability to
call out masons, bricklayers and other
building trades from all jobs where non-
union men are employed, and upon keep
ing. carpenters from accepting service
under other bosses. In view of all these
things it seems that the struggle for the
eight hour day in this city is only fairly
begun instead of being at an end.

IN JAILED,

He Claims His Mistress Took 100000
from Him. and Threatens Murder If She
Does not Return it.
New YORK, May 12.-Murat Masterson,
who says he is ex-supreme court judge
of Prescott, Ariz., and who lives at No. 80
West Thirty-second street, was locked up
in the West Thirtieth street police sta
ton tonight on charge of attempting to
kill his alleged cousin and mistress, Mrs.
Alice H%opkinson, at Graud Central flat,
No. IS West Thirtieth street. Mrs. Hop
kinson makes a similar charge against
Masterson. Masterson, according to the
account given by Mrs. Hopkinson's maid,
called at the house early in the evening,
and being denied a~dmittance, kicked the
door open and entered her apartment,
and demanded the return of 100000
which amount Masterson claimed she
had taken from him and threatened to
murder her if she did not give it to him.
A shot was heard shortly afterwards and
Masterson rushed from the room with q
smoking pistol in his hand and running
to a West Thirteenth street policeman
demanded Mrs. Hopkinson's arrest for
attempting to shoot him. Mrs. Hopkin-
son was arrested and at the police sta
tson made q counter charge against Mas
terson. Ex-Judge Masterson comes
from Prescott, Ariz., and is said to be
worth 5 5,O00,0OO. He has been a visitor
at the fiat for a long time and his son
Howard, a boy of Is, lived with Mrs.
Hopkinson until a few weeks ago. Mas
~terson, it is also said, owns gold mines
at chihuahua, old Mexico, and onyx
mines in Arizona. He has an office at
No. 6, Wall street, this city. He says he
is q member of the United States bar of
