A MOST AWFUL TRAGEDY.
Father Shoots Three of His Daughters and
Suspected Man.

PORTSMOUTH, n. H, Sept. IA mos
awful tragedy occurred here tonight and
the city is in fever OF excitement. Fred
Helm, cooper aged %, blew out bis brains
after having killed two of his daughters,
and probably fatally wounding a third and
the man whom he suspected of having
done him great harm
Several months az his wife left him and
he became respondent. She had been un-
faithful; her name has been connected with
Charles w. Taylor, well known har iware
merchant. Since she left him his three
daughters, the eldest of whom was but
titeen, have been keeping house for him.
Recently it has been reported that the
eldest of the girls, Carrie, had become
Maynard. This, with his other trouble.
preyed upon Helms mind until tonight.
when he evidently determined to end all
his troubles. He went to Taylor's resi-
dence at 7;30 and as the man was
entering the house shot him twice in the
back. Taylor is still alive. but
very low. While able to converse he said
he did not know what prompted Helm to
shoot him. After shooting Taylor Helm
hurried to his own house and soon after
people in the vicinity were alarmed at
nearing several shots. Immediately after
ward Maud, his thirteen year old
daughter. ran out OF the house and fell upon
the SIDEWALK. Neighbors went to her as
slstance and she said her father had shot
her. She was quickly given assistance
to remove her TO a hospital and found one
ball had gone through her face, another
! through her stomach and another through
the hip. She cannot live.
When the officers and neighbors entered
the house the kitchen presented an awful
sight Everything being smeared with blood.
just outside the back door lay Carrie,
the eldest girl, with bullet through her
brain, across her form lay Bertha, the
youngest daughter. She was unconscious
and expired in fifteen minutes, bullet
having entered her head behind
the left ear. As the officers
entered the front room they found the dead
body OF Helm stretched on the floor with a
bullet through his temple, fired by his own
hand. The people are wrought up to the
highest pitch of excitement

A STRANGE ADVENTURE.
Robert Louis Stevenson Nearly Loses all of his

LONDON, Sept. IA private letter re-
Gently received from Robert Louis Steven
son gives an interesting description of an
accident happening to his effects during a
trip between Samoa and Auckland and
which nearly resulted in serious loss. While
sailing over the route named with the idea
OF gathering strength after long and ener-
waiting illness, the vessel on which Mr..
Stevenson was passenger caught fire in
the cabin and soon the blaze had kindled
into fierce flame. The sailors seized upon
the movable articles that had become
lgnited and fastened to pitch them over
board. Mrs. Stevenson, who was standing
on the deck watching the progress of fire
and preparing to leave the vessel when
necessary, saw two of the crew dragging
from below large burning box and raised
1t TO heave it into the sea. Recognizing in
an instant the box as one that belonged to
her husband she sprang forward with "a
scream, seized the nearest man by the arm
and begged him to drop it. He did so, and
being deluged with water, the box was
saved. 1t contained all Stevenson's unpub-
lished manuscripts, the result of many
months hard work, among them being a

WASHINGTON, Sept. IT, Special tele-
gram 10 THE HERALD. During the con-
sideration by the Senate to-day of the bill
70 establish land court and provide for
the settlement of private land claims in
Colorado, Nevada, Wyoming, New Mexico
and Utah, Senator Wolcott made a very
strong and vigorous protest against some
parts of the oil which he characterized as
unfair, unjust and cruel to innocent parties
who would have no means of redress.
The bill as It mad been reported by the
committee on private Land claims provided
that no confirmation shall in any case be
made or a patent issued for a greater
quantity than eleven square leagues of land
10 or in the right Of anyone as original
grantee or claimant or in the right Of any
one to an original grant TO two or more
persons Jointly, nor for greater quantity
than was authorized By the respective laws
of Spain and Mexico applicable to the
claim. This particular clause was de-
nounced by Senator Wolcott as wholly I'M
REASONABLE, and he propoaed to so amend
IL that it would read ''No confirmation
shall in any case be made or patent issued
for greater quantity than was originally
granted by the government under which
the claim had its inception In other re
spects he thought the bill was imperfect,
and he pointed out several pernicious fea-
lures. One OF these was that there
seemed to be no limit placed upon the time
within which the government might prose
cute individuals, but the bill limited
TO very short period the time
within which individuals could sue
for their rights before this court, and even
after having had their rights adjusted by
this proposed new tribunal They wonld
be liable to be hauled up before the supreme
court OF the United States and have their
cases tried dc moro with new testimony, etc.
The blame would be alone in the lower
court This was one OF the several anoma-
lies in the measure which Senator Wolcott
pointed out. 1t is evident that the bill
vii be strongly opposed by Senators on
botn sides of the chamber, andaalthough it
is one Of the measures included in the Re-
publican programme to be passed during
this session. it is likely to be very materi-
ally amended and improved before it shall
be finally voted upon.

THE LANGSTON yENDBLE CASE.
Cheddle Makes a Strong Speech in Which He
Shows How Republican Party Can
be Built Up in the South.

WASHINGTON, Sept. T.-George B. Elem
ming was the first witness to day before
the Raum committee.
Cooper asked if Butler Fitch had not
told him that Bradley Tanner had given
the names'o OF six or seven pension office
employees who had refrigerator stock
The witness replied that Fitch had said
so. The witness had written an article
which appeared in an Indianapolis paper
and had furnished information to a ST.
Louis paper. Six or seven good men be-
sides Fitch supplied the witness with in
formation, fourteen being pension office
employees. He sent the men to Tanner
to talk with him and bring information to
the witness. He (Flemming) desired to
use it in his newspaper business. His OBJ
Ject was not particularly to put UP case on
the commissioner. but TO get at the truth.
He had never said he was ''going after the
commissioners because of his discharge.
He had said he would get even with the
man who got him out-Theodore Smith
and had done it. He (the witnessl had been
postmaster at Charlotte, Michigan, and the
postoffice had been robbed. The commits
sloner enquired whether the witness had
not been involved in some shady real estate
transactions in Grand Rapids, but Cooper
objected to these personal matters
The commissioner replied he wanted to
prove the witness was d rascal.
Cooper-lf you go into that | want to
show 1t is true of you, that men who live in
glass houses should not throw stones.
The commissioner think your house Is
as CLASSY as anydoby's.
Cooper-Well, defy you.
AS the commissioner pressed the quer-
ton Cooper exclaimed: "If l can't show
more rottenness in his (Raum's) record
than IN that of any man in Washington, l
will withdraw the reference having been
made to the robbery of the postoffice.''
Cooper asked if the commissioner ex-
pected to show that witness had robbed it.
The commissioner replied that Cooper
had letter from gentleman who stated
that witness was suspected of robbery
AT this point the committee insisted on
cutting off the examination into this matter
and there being no more witnesses, the case
closed.
