SENSATIONAL

Shocking Story Of a Most
Fiendish Assassination.
4 Cigar Makers Throat Cut and His Body
Horribly MutIlated by a Jealous
Fellow Workman.
Special to THE MORNING CALL

SAYvILLE q. IL. Dec. GA most brutal
murder was committed last night at Bohe-
mia, small village three miles north of
this place. Late last evening Frank Krulis,
cigar-maker, walked into the house of
Constable Sasheck, laid on the table hu-
man finger and said he had killed Winnie
Croupa. -cigar-maker, and had
brought finger to prove it. The constable
first thought the man. was Joking, but
Krulis said: II mean what say. Croupa
told lies about me and concluded to kill
him. l met him on the road tonight and
cut his throat. 1 wanted to make sure he
never would speak again so cut open his
abdomen and placed his bowels over his face !;
then cut off finger for you."
The constable hastily summoned posse,
and accompanied by the murderer they went
out and found the body. 1t was horrible
sight. 1t lay in a frame of bloody snow;
the clothing was torn from it aud hole the
size of sugar bowl was in the abdomen; !;
the entrails lay over breast, neck and face
the right ear and the index finger OF the left
hand were missing. When the party re-
turned to the village they were
net by an excited crowd, which
wanted to lynch Krulis, but the
constable succeeded in getting him to Jail.
When searched the missing ear was found
in the murderer's pocket, and he told Judge
OBrien he had brought it for him, and
handed the Judge the blood stained knife,
with which the awful deed had been COM
mitted. Throughout the examination Krulis
conducted himself in stolid manner. 1t is
believed jealousy of Croupa's attention to
q young woman was one of the motives
krulis had for the crime.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 27.-At to-day's ses-
sion of the American Economic Association
anumber of papers were read and the report
OF Secretary Ely discussed. 1t represented
the association to be in a prosperous condi-
tion, the number Of members and subscribers
on the list being 635. The national associa-
tlons on the other side of the world, the re-
port said. had received the impulse which
had given them existence from the Ameri-
can Economic Association. The report sug-
gested the wisdom of continuing the policy
OF offering prizes for essays, the object being
to awaken public interest in economic topics
and lead to the formation of intelligent
opinion upon important ma ters of the day.
The report of the Committee on Statistic 5,
by Hon. Carroll Wright, was read at the
evening session. The report said that as to
quantity the work OF American StatisticianS
was equal to that of any other country. AS
TO quality, their work still fell somewhat
oetow the scientific characteristics which be-
longed to continental efforts. The report
spoke encourageingly Of the progress of sta
tlsticai Investigation and science in the
United States-a work which was viewed
with increasing respect abroad and was ex-
citing widespread interest at home.
The evening session closed by the reading
OF an interesting paper by Prof. II. c.
Adams. on Statistics as a means Of correct
Ing corporate abuses" The ideas embodied
are that the granting of corporate privileges
should be limited to those businesses in
which the interests of the public predomi-
nate over the interests of the individual in
corporators. All corporations should be re-
quired to make such reports as will enable
the Government to direct their policy and
control their administration. Other busi-
nesses should be subject TO inquiry, with the
purpose of determining whether or not busi-
ness In any case should be required to as-
sumo corporate form.

THE SOCIAL QUESTION.
suggestions Contained in the PCps's New
EnCyClical.

PARIS. Dec 27.-Advces from Rome state
that the Pope has finished the draft of his
encyclical upon the social question. His
Holiness has been working on the subject
for over year, and at his request the most
competent economists and Bishops Of the
different countries. including America, have
furnished memoranda. The Pope considers
this question the greatest of the present
time. The epcyclical will be the crowning
act of the Pope's work In this direction.
The date of the publication has not yet
been given, but the Associated Press corre-
spOndent is enabled to give the substance of
1t now. The eDcyclical will review and ex-
pound the whole question affecting wage
workers. The document will comprise
three parts. First, his Holiness will deyelop
the general principles upon which social
economy is founded and the dominant idea
OF distributive justice which should regulate
the intercourse of men and the spread of
wealth. The Pope says distributive and
restorative justice is needed to prevent mis-
cry and sweating on one side and exorbitant
riches and tyranny on the other
The second partcomprises the origin and
cause OF the present condition of the social
problem. On this point his Holiness takes
new thesis, first developed In his encycli-
cal on socialism. The third part contains
the views Of the Pose regarding the rene
ules, beyond religious and moral influence
to be advocated. His Holiness expires esses
himself again in favor of the Intervention
by the State within the limits previously
set forth.
He condemns capitalism as now organ lied,
ana advocates more equitable and just
distribution of riches. The Pope is con-
vlnced that Papacy and the church should
lead tbs present social aud Democratic
movement. and will appeal TO all conserva-
tive forces, and to Protestants to aid in Sc
curing the safety Of society.

A RARE OPERATION.
A Tumor Removed From the Brain of a
Patient.

Tumor Removed From the Brain of q
Patient.
A surgical operation OF rare interest, and
one which illustrates the wonderful achieve
mentS OF modern science, was performed by
prominent surgeon of this city yesterday.
The operation consisted of nothing less than
the removed of a tumor weighing two ounces
from the brain Of a patient at the Sisters
Hospital. The operation was performed by
Dr. n. b. Carson, and was witnessed by a
number of his professional brethren.
The operation of removing tumor from
the brain had been performed seventeen
times up to 1889, and has been performed
several times since. Several of these opera
tions have been done in ST. Louis The case
treated yesterday is of special interest on
account of the unusual size of the tumor
1t is, OF course, too early to know whether
or not the operation will result in the recov-
cry Of the patient, but it afforded the only
hope for recovery possible. A considerable
percentage of the cases heretofore operated
upen have been successful.
The operation OF course involves the re-
moval OF portion of the skull and the sepa-
ration of the tumOr by the use of the knife.
But the actual operation scarcely involves
as much skill as the diagnosing O! the dis
ease aud the locating of the tumOr. Medical
science, however. has SO separated and de-
fined the functions of the brain that IL ena-
bles the skilled surgeon to locate disease in
that organ, and it was by this means that
DR.. Carson located the tumor removed yes
terday. The accuracy of his diagnosis was
proved by the finding Of the tumor exactly
where he had located it from observation Of
the patients symptoms. The character of
the tumOr has not yet been determined, but
1t will be the subject of future scientific in
vestigati0n.-St Louis Globe. Democrat
