The Hot Springs star. (Hot Spings [Hot Springs], Dakota [Dakota Territory, i.e. S.D.]) 1886-189?, 1890-12-19

If the legislature does not at
tempt too much this winter we may
expect to see some work accom-
plished. 1t is possible to make
haste slowly. The first duty de-
volving upon the republican mem
bers. is to elect a republican Uni
ted States senator. After that the
chief business is to refrain from
passing needless laws. Sometimes
there is more wisdom in knowing
what laws not to pass than in fill
ing u statutes with supposed
beneficial laws. We do not need
a law taxing mortgages; we do not
need a three years. redemption
law. Enacting such laws will do
our state great injustice. Already
loaning companies have stopped
loaning money on farm and city
property because it is feared that
the three-year redemption law will
be passed this winter. Legisla-
ton unfricndly to capital and rail-
roads will be a great calamity to
our state now.-Pierre Capital.

MAY RESUME OPERATIONS.

The Locked-Out Threadmakers Hopeful
 of a Settlement.
 NEWARK, N. J., Dec. 15.-The strike and lockout at the Newark and Kearny mills of the Clark Thread Company may soon be settled.
 The Clarks called in dozen carders and framers who have large families and gave them light work in clearing up the rooms. The employees are much pleased over the prospect of an early resumptio of work at the mills.
 Anthony Moore, Secretary of the Ma tional Association of Mule Spinners, has had two formal conferences with the Clarks, which lasted each time for half an hour.
 Treasurer Clark will consider the griev- ances of the spinners this afternoon and afterwards will confer with their repre- sentatives. MT. Moore says that if half of the spinners' complaints are true they have just cause for their action and that they would be supported by the National Association during the strike, which he had no doubt would be ended soon.

RAILROAD PRESIDENTS MEET.
Considering the Formation of g Gigantic
 Association to Control Rates.

Considering the Formation of g Gigantic
 Association to Control Rates.
 NEW YORK, Dec. 15,-The presidents of the railroads west of Chicago met at the house of Banker J. Pierpont Morgan this morning for the purpose of considering the formation of gigantic association to control railroad rates and divide up com- petitive business.
 This meeting has raised different emo tions in different minds. Western grangers see in it nothing more nor less than the construction of an alliance to destroy them by means of enormous tar ifs on their produce. Stockholders look on it hopefully as step in the direction of increasing the value of railway prop erty and the price of whatever stocks they possess. Freight managers who have been able to build themselves brown stone houses out of the manipulation of rates are not likely to regard the confer ence with favor.
 Banker Morgan declares that the pro ceedings to-day will be in the nature of a preliminary discussion.

A DEFAULTER SUICIDES.

His Employer Caught Him Drinking
 Champagne and Investigated.
 MILWAUKEE, Wis. Dec. 15.-One of the firm of P. A. Gross & Co.,, wholesale mil liners, while dining at restaurant Sat- urday night last, was surprised to see their bookkeeper, Emil Wulff, drinking champagne at one of the tables.
 As Wulff's salary did not warrant such luxuries, an investigation of his accounts was begun yesterday morning, and soon after 8 shortage of $50 was dis covered. Wulf said he could easily ex- plain the discrepancy and went out to hunt up one of the customers, but never returned.
 Further investigation revealed short age of $S,000. Nothing more was heard of Wulff until 6 a. m., when he was found dead in an outhouse at his board inghouse with bullet Tn his right temple and the revolver clenched in his hand.

KNIGHTS sTRIkE eAcK.
They Issue a Secret Circular, Attacking

They Issue Secret Circular, Attacking
 the New York Central Road.
 ALBANY, N. Y., Dec. 15.-The Knights of Labor have sent out secret circular to the different local and district assem- plies throughout the State It is aimed principally at the New York Central Railroad Company, which defeated MT. Powderly's organization in the recent strike. The circular calls upon every branch of the order in New York to se- lect delegates to attend convention, which will be held in Pythian Hall, Al. bany, on January 13.
 It tells those to whom it is addressed that the object of the convention will be the advancement of the Knights oi Labor, "political - and otherwise" It then goes on to inform them that the convention will take such steps as may be necessary to secure the passage of g number of labor bills in which the organ. ization is interested.
 The first thing mentioned is an amend ment to the weekly payment law. The Knights want the Legislature to amend it 80 that it will apply to every steam cable, electric or horse railroad in the State.
 Then the Legislature will be asked to enact law which will forbid corpora, tions hiring Pinkerton men or armed bodies of men during strikes. This is aimed at the New York Central Railroad The paragraph that follows says that the organization will take steps to secure 8 law which will compel that corporation to return to the State "the property which it holds illegally" What property the Knights refer to is not mentioned.

WASHINGTON TOPICS
Work for the Senate and
 House This Week.
REPUBLICAN CAUCUS TONIGHT.
Two Important Propositions to be Dis
 cussed and Probably Decided

A Plan to Lay the Elections Bill Aside
 and Take Up Financial HIeasures-The
 AppOrtiOnment Question to be Settled
 In the HOuse-Dr. Billings Recom-
 mended for SurgeOn-General.
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.-The course of the Senate this week will be mapped out at the caucus of Republican Senators to be held tonight
 At present, the order of business agreed upon is for the Senate to meet at 10 o'clock each morning, to begin the car alteration of the Federal Election bill at II o'clock, and to remain in discussion of this measure until the hour of ad- jtrYument, which will be probably or ;.'clock This is the programme to-day, t..t the caucus to te held tonight will Do. haps alter this programme entirely.
 Jhere are two propositions before the caucus. One is to change the rules of the Senate in order to establish method oI closing debate so as to bring the Elec- tions bill to a vote. The other is to lay aside the Elections bill for the purpose of taking up financial measures.
 A committee appointed by the caucus is considering financial measures with a view of reporting on the advisability of laying aside the Elections bill tempora- rily during the week. It is not likely that this committee will be able to agree upon anything by the time the caucus lLeets, although it is possible that a proposition will be laid before the eau GUS, coming from the President, to pass immediately the bill to purchase the 13, 900, ,000 ounces of surplus silver now on the market. This measure or some other financial measure is likely to dis place the Elections bill during the week. If the Elections bill be laid aside tempor- arily, the general belief is that it will not come up again. There seems to be little hope of it's rassage at this time.

BILLS THE HOUSE.
The Apportionment Question Will Prob-
 ably be Settled This Week.

The Apportionment Question Will Prob-
 ably be Settled This Week.
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.-The Apportion- ment question will probably be settled, so far as the House is concerned, this week. MT. Dunnell, the chairman of the Census Committee, has been assured by the Committee on Rules that he will be given time for the consideration of the Frank bill and unless something unfor- seen should happen he will call it up be- fore Saturday. There is but little dispo- sition among the Democrats to make a fight against the measure.
 The Composite Subsidy bill adopted by the Committee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries is also on the programme for this week and an effort will be made by it's supporters to have two days set apart for it's consideration. The Committee on Rules, however, may grant one day only.
 After to-day the week will be consumed in discussing the Army ApprC .riation bill, the bill for the retiremeL5 of na tional bank circulation, aimed to relieve the financial situation, anG probably the District of Columbia Appropriation bill.

A BRUTAL MURDER
Camden, N. J., Police Have An
 other Mystery to Solve.
HORRIBLE WORK OF A PEND.
Mrs Flsmmings Dead Body Found on .
 Railroad Track.

It Was at First Supposed She Had Been
 Kpled by Train-An Examination In-
 dicated Foul PIay-Her Skull Crushed
 in and Many Bruises on Her BOdy-NO
 Clue to the Murderer.
 CAMDEN, N. J., Dec 15.-The police have another murder mystery to solve. Developments of the past few hours show beyond a doubt that Mrs. Bridget Flemming, whose body was found on the railroad track at South Camden, was brutally murdered. She had been assaulted.
 Mrs. Flemming, who resided at No. 680 Mount Vernon street, was last seen alive late Friday night, while she was on her way to her home. It is supposed that as she was crossing the track of the West Jersey Railroad, near Seventh street, she was attacked by her assailant, and that he killed her to prevent his identity from becoming known, and placed her body on the railroad track so that it would be struck by train.
 The body was found lying across the rails in such R position as tc indicate tn at it had been placed there. The scene of the tragedy was not far from the South Camden station.
 The woman's skull was crushed in and there were many bruises on her body. It was at first supposed that she had been killed by a train, but an exam ination of the body indicated foul play. The woman's skull has the appearance of having been crushed in with blunt instrument, probably stone. The police have been at work on the case all day, but so far as known they have no clue to the murderer.

SAY SHE IS BEwTCAED.
The Lutheran CIergymen Discuss nIrs
 Wuchter's Case.

" uchbeEgb AIASe.
 ALLENTOWN, Pa., Dec 15.-Contro- versies between physicians, clergymen and lawyers in this part of Pennsylvania regarding Mrs. Wuchter, the "involun- tary faster" are going on, here. The Lutheran clergymen of this section met in a body and at their meeting discussed the case. The conference has 8 large membership, and @ "charm" used by . witch doctor was exhibited by Mrs. Wuchter's pastor. It was 8 small bag containing a little book, on whose pages were scribbled forward and backward various German sentences, calling upon the evil spirits to leave the woman and abjuring them to cease their persecu- tions. There were meaningless acros- tics in bad Latin and other scribblings.
 The case is assuming 8 more interest ing phase daily. Dr. o. w. Sieger is the attending physician. When seen by 8 reporter Mrs. Wuchter was resting quietly and breathed with considerable difficulty. She lay on her bed apparently Efeless until her husband brought her water mixed with vinegar. When the mixture touched her lips she went into he most violent convulsions, which lasted fully four minutes, during which she appeared to endure excruciating pain. After her conyulsions she spoke to the correspond ent in English as well as in Pennsylvania Dutch, and said that during her convul- sions she sees heaven. Its beauty, she said, it was impossible to describe. Dur ing the last six weeks she seems to be getting stronger, but cannot account for it, as she asserts that not a morsel of food nor ten drops of liquid have been swallowed during 245 days. She further more says that were it only possible she would eat and drink.

DRIVEN TO DEATH.
Sad Story of the Suicide of 9 Young
 School Teacher.

Sad Story of the Suicide of 9 Young
 School Teacher.
 HoPEsvILLE, Pa, Dec. 15.- Shortly after 9 a. m. the sharp report of pistol rang out from what is known as ''Thompson's Bend,n a block of tenement houses on Clark street. Mrs. Wolf, who occupies the center house in the row, appeared at an open window and impiored the neigh bors to come quick. Reaching her apart nnents Mrs. Wolf was found kneeling over the lifeless body of her daughter Emma, who had just committed suicide by shooting herself through the head. A six-shooter lay by her side. The bullet entered just over the right temple.
 The chromosomes of her tragic death are sad, and due directly to her fathers intemperance and abuse. George Wolf is a prominent shoe dealer. Emma was his eldest daughter. - Mrs. Wolf told the following story of the trouble that led to her suicide: "My husband is Q slave to drink. During the past week he was drinking heavily and was very abusive. He went away about o'clock and re- turned shortly after that hour in the morning. Emma sat down to breakfast as he entered. He was unusually ugly and angry. Emma wore 8 gold watch and chain, a present from young man she was to marry about Christmas. Without saying 8 word, he seized the watch and chain, and dashed them against the stove. While was remon- strating with him for this, Emma quietly left the table and went up stairs. Twenty minutes later we heard the fatal shot,"
 Emma Wolf was in her 24th year. Four years ago she was elected princi- pal teacher in the public schools.
