To Escape Sufferinp

A Faribault, Mimi, dispatch Of the
10th says: A shocking tragedy occurred
this morning, at the residence of James
Mcneil. Jr., near Cannon Lake. Mr.
Mcneil arose about 5 o'clock and went
into the kitchen to build a fire
Mrs. Mcneil slipped out after him
and locked the door. then went back in
to the bed room, took a revolver from
the bureau drawer and shot three of
her children. Mr. Mcneil, hearing the
shots, tried to get into the bed room,
but falling. started around the house,
going into the front door and meeting
his WI e coming from the kitchen, where
she lad chased the oldest child
and made her drink carbolic
acid. The mother also drank of
the poison. The little girl evidently
struggled very hard, as her face and
hands were covered with the acid. One
child was instantly killed with the re-
volver, and one died about 10 o'clock
this morning. The little baby, weeks
old, was shot through both lungs, but is
still alive. The mother and the little
girl to whom she gave the acid may
live. Mrs. Mcneil gives as the reason
for the terrible deed that she was sick !,
had no hope of getting we'll, and wanted
to end her sufferings.

ENGLAND MAY ADOPT TT.
Secretary WINDOWS Silver Scheme
Received With Favor:


Received With Favor.
New YORK. Jan. 2l.-There was a
fumor in Wall Street to-day, which,
considering the discussion of Secretary
WINDOWS silver proposition, occasion
ed considerable comment. Messrs.
Zimmerman & Forshay announced that
they had received aGvices from London
to the effect that the Bank of England
Is about to exercise its right, never
hitherto asserted, to use silver to the
extent of one-third of its reserve, and
issue l-pound notes in silver against
it. The dispatches also say that the
bank had purchased 100000 pounds Of
silver bullion in expectation of the
action.
There has been great deal of silver
talk for the last few days, which, with
the recent heavy shipments of bullion
to England, and the advance in price,
has occasioned more or less speculation
The larger foreign firms in the street,
while they declared that they had re-
ceived nothing confirming the rumored
action of the Bank of England. said
that such step was by no means unlike
ly; on the contrary, that there were
many reasons why such an issue would
be advantageous to England. One bank
er went 80 Tar as to say that If the Bank
OF England should exercise this right
there would be such period of specu-
latlon and general imitation in the coun-
try as has not been experienced since
the discovery OF gold III California.
Mr.. rshaw said he was confident
that the dispatch which he received
WAS well founded. There have been"
he continued, very heavy expectations
Of silver to England recently, the last
shipment being last Friday when we
sent over 10000 ounces. | think,
however, that our dispatch intended to
say that the bank had accumulated g.
10000 ounces, or about $3,0U0,0 Geo, in.
stead OF 3,Goo,GcO pounds. But the for
mer Is very large sum. | believe that,
should the step toward silver certif-
Gates be taken in England, it will
have been taken merely in anticipation
of Mr.. Windom' S plan. Not alone this,
but 1t will be great advance toward
the establishing of bimetalism and an
international currency. For this fact is
indubitable, that England and the
United States control the money mar
kets of the word. II England should
follow our example, and adopt silver as
the basis Of part of its circulation
France, Germany, and, of course, other
countries of Europe, couldn't fail to fol-
low the lea4 -

MOVING FOR ANNEXATION.
Prominent Canadians Favoring a Uniol
with the Initial States.

IFo"lnent SAnaulRns faYOr1nE tDlOn
with the Unitsi States.
MONTREAL, Que, Jan. 1S.-M. Mer-
cier's most intimate friends say ne in
tends openly espousiIg annexation as
opposed to imperial federation, which
is being cEsmponed by Sir John Mac
Donald, Sir Hector Langevin and the
Conservative leaders. Mr. Perrault's IS
open letter to the premier, it was said,
was inspired by MERCER. Another ru-
NOR says that Laurier, the French Cana
dian leader of the Opposition in the
Dominion ParlIa Iament, and an intimate
friend Of Mercier, will strongly cham
pion commercial union at this session.
and that this policy is in sympathy with
the Mercier movement here. These
are not sensational stories, but the
sober convictions of many influential
French Canadians.
81 do not believe" said ME. Ls
Flamme, ex-minister of Justice, that
annexation will become a serious polit-
zeal factor until Sir John dies; but just
so soon as he does that will become the
burning issue. In the meantime the
French Canadian Liberals are begin
ming to set the agitation in motion"
