OHIO rENITENTIARY.
Execution of Henry Popp for Murder-Death
of Pete Mccartney the COunterfeiter.

Execution of Henry Popp for Murder-Death
of Pete Mccartney the COunterfeiter.
COLUMBUS, o., Oct. 2l.-Henry Popp who
murdered Moritz Greather a saloon keeper
of Canton, April 2, $780, was executed at
the state penitentiary today. The con-
demned man had been hopeful all day
that commutation of the sentence would
be extended by the governor although he
was notified there would be no interference
Popp prepared dying statement in which
he attributed his crime to drink
and claimed he was irresponsible
at times. Greather, the victim, hired Popp
with others to remove some whisky from
the sidewalk and treated them until they
were drunk. Greather atterward threw
him out of the saloon three times, and
when he returned third time, the saloon
ist was making an assault on Popp, when
the latter cut at him blindly, the knife
taking effect in the neck with fatal results.
The Condemned was Prussian by birth
and 81 years old.
Pete Mccartney, the famous counter
feiter, widely known, died at the Ohio peni-
tentiary today aged 60. He was United
States prisoner, con victed the last time at
New Orleans in 1883.

Matters at Manor.

MANOR, Tex, Oct. 2l.-Our town goes on
in the even tenor of It's way, and though no
effort has been made to inaugurate boom,
it is steadily progressing. Several new
dwellings have been completed the past
summer and several more are now in
course of construction and when completed
will add much to the appearance of our
already neatly built village. AS place of
residence Manor offers inducements which
the we'll to-do farmers of the surrounding
country are not slow TO recognize. The
absence of any immoral influences and the
school and the church advantages, to say
nothing Of the facilities for marketing pro-
duce and buying supplies, have attracted
very desirable class of permanent res
idents
The health or the community has been
proverbially good until the past summer,
when there were few cases of fever for
which physicians ascribe no local cause.
However, advent of the fall season with its
cool invigorating weather and refreshing
showers has abated the disease and it Is
predicted the cold of winter will entirely
eradicate the germs which seem to have no
special habitat, but are propagated alike
among mountains, on plain and at
seaboard. Farmers, and indeed all classes
dependent on them, are congratulating
themselves on larger yield of the feecv
staple than was expected in the early fall
Then it was not believed that the Weld
would be more than third of bale per
acre. now it Is thought the ia -mers will be
rewarded with half bale wbicn means
matter of $25 per acre, with little outlay as
compared with the expenses of the farmer
In the North and East.
The country around this place is beauti-
fully diversified with broad prdiries, high
ridges and well watered and wooded val
leys. thus adapting it well to farming and
stock raising. 1t is settled by very thrifty,
Industrious people, representing almost
every state III the union and several differ
ent nationallties. Whatever the birth
place, though, of the people, all are en-
thUsiastic Texans. Proud of their state.
they feel they can best promote the general
welfare by attending first TO individual In
terests. Hence, a more well-tN-do people
cannot be found in the great state of Texas.
This is evidenced by the large amount of
business done here. The sales of cotton
last season was about 5000 bales. Already
the shipments the present season are nearly
half that amount. The many well equip
ped gins III this vicinity are taxed to their
utmost to prepare the staple for the market
Quite number of our citizens from the
FaLherland attended the German celebra.
tion, and speak III the highest terms of its
management and their entertainment.
Manor rejoices with Austin in the success
of the dam project.

IN SAN ANTONIO AN ARMY
DESERTER SLAYS A
WOMAN
THEN SHOOTS HIMSELF.
AT Columbus Man Fatally Shot for Pro
tecting His Sister--Crimes and Cas-
ualties Throughout the state,

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Oct. 21.-A terribly
savage murder and suicide was committed
tonight about 8 o'clock at the corner of Frio
and Perez streets. Mrs. August Mehlin,
the handsome young wife of a railroad
laborer, was shot and killed by Jack Weiss.
Weiss then ran off about ten yards, placed
the muzzle of the smoking revolver in his
mouth and literally blew out his brains.
The shocking tragedy is involved in con-
considerable mystery. Mrs. Mehlin was
proceeding home in an uncovered light
wagon with her husband from his work in
the L. u G. N. railroad yards. The couple
stopped at the bakers TO procure bread
At the corner of Frio and Perez streets
Mehlin left his wife in the We
hicle to hold the horse while he
procured the bread. He had hardly gotten
i'll the store before two shots were fired. He
ran out. His wife screamed that she was
murdered. Both bullets took effect near
the heart and the woman died soon after
being taken to hospital. Weiss was
deserter from the United Sta es army, He
came here recently from Detroit. His wife
Joined him few days ago but they quar-
relied and separated yesterday. Ii is sup
posed that Weiss mistook Mrs. Mehlin for
his wife. A note found in his pocket in
dlcated that he first intended to kill his
wife aid then suicide.

LOCOMOTIVE ENGINEERS.
A Proposition to Consolidate With the Train
mems Association Rejected.

PITTsBURG, Oct. 21.-The business of the
convention of the International Brother
hood of Locomotive Engineers is progress
ing. The sessions continue secret, but ii
has been learned from reliable source
that proposition of federation with the
Trainmen's organization has been rejected
The new executive committee Just ap-
pointed is as follows: Edward Kenton, OF
the Erie, chairman Col. Nat Sawyer, of the
New York Central; R. NJ. Clark, of Denver;
Ash Kennedy. of Winnipeg; Daniel Brown,
Of Derry, Pa; G. P. Tarren, of Temple,
Texas.
At a meeting of the committee last night
$S075 was distributed among the widows,
orphans and INDECENT members of fifty ont
of the I50 divisions of the order This
amount was distributed among tifty-six
persons.
The committee on special charities, John
Hutfenberger of New York, chairman, also
held meeting and disbursed considerable
money.
Atlanta, Minneapolis and St. Paul have
been suggested as places for holding the
next meeting. Western delegates have
combined in favor of st. Paul. Prominent
delegates state that the assertion made by
New York newspaper that the con vention
had ordered strike on the Erie road is
false. The subject has not been brought
before the meeting.

Legislating on Cincinnati.

COLUMBUS, U. Oct. 2l.-Gov. CampbelPs
message was received in the senate this
afternoon and referred. During the ses-
sion the senate passed bill providing that
Mayor Mosby of Cincinnati shall have the
appointment of members of the new board
and an election be held in April. The bill
is non-partisan in character and abolishes
the present board. There were only three
votes in the senate against the bill, all the
Republicans voting in its favor. The
measure is IN line of Gov. CampbelPs mes
sage and substantially what was asked in
the original message bill. IL is believed it
will pass The house, as the Republican
members of the judiciary committee of that
body have reported substantially, endors-
ing the governors message. senator elect
Brice has been in consultation with the
governor during the day, and is given
credit for bringing about the probable set
tlement of difficulties and the ar ticipated
passage of the bill. The house caucus con-
trolled by Democrats, said to be opposed TO
the governor, has agreed upon bill giving
the governor power 10 remove for cause
only, anc fixing an election for April.
There will be contest in the house over
the two propositions.

THE WESTERN CORN CROP.
1t is Turning Ont Better Than Expected, Es-
pecially in Minnesota and Dakota.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Oct 21.-The Farmers
Review tomorrow will say Careful exami-
nation of est mates furnished by our cor
respondents reveals the fact that the corn
crop is turning out better than expected.
The crop in Michigan and Wisconsin is
larger than that of last year and returns in
Minnesota and Dakota are almost as large
as in 1889. Other states, however, show q
considerable shortage. This is most marked
in Kansas and Nebraska, where the crop
VIII be less than one-half that of 1889. In
several counties in those states corn is a.
total failure at least it is poor in quality
and in most cases OF ly fit for
fodder. Reports from Illinois, In
diana Ohio, Kentucky, Missouri and other
states say that while the ears are small
owing to the midsummer drouth, as rule
they are well filled, sound and throughly
matured, grading No. l. and No. 2.
1t is probable that about 75 per cent OF
the products grown in those six state will
be marketable, correspondents in the states
named writing from Grand Travers, Mont
Calm, Osceola, Benzia and Wexford
counties report the best crops in years.
The quality of corn Is said to be fair TO
goou IN both states.
Minnesota and Dakota are harvesting an
average amount of corn.

Window Glnss and tha Tarir,

FINDLAY, o., Oct. 21.-This morning every
window glass factory in Findlay went into
the new trust which has been organized to
control the production and sale of window
glass. This trust embraces all the window
glass houses in the United States west of
Pittsburg, with the single exception of that
at Celina, o., which is owned by Findlay
parties The effect of this combination
will be to increase the price of glass because
1t prevents any competition. The new
tariff gives the trust additional protection
from importation, and although no window
glass will be imported prices will be as
high as though glass was imported and the
duty paid upon 1t. Factories here do not
yet know who will handle their products,
but all orders will have to come through
one contract agent. The headquarters OF
the trust is located at Chicago.

Consolidation of Express Companies.

MILWAUKEE, Wis.,, Oct. 2l.-According to
report received here the consolidation of
the Adams and United States Express
companies is said to be agreed upon. The
present capital stock of the Adams is $l2,-
10000, and of the United States $lO,OOO,-
600. BY increasing the stock of the Adams
company to 22,0OO,OOO and changing $lO,-
OOO,0OO of it for United stock the consolida
ton is to be effected. An official of one Nof
the companies who has jus, returned from
New York and Boston learned while In the
East that an inspection of the United
States company by the auditor of the
Adams had been ordered. The above
statement was telegraphed TO Boston last
night and shown Waldo Adams of the
express company who refused to confirm
or deny the reported consolidation. His
manner, however, indicated that the story
had more of basis than mere rumor.

Nan Shot at Columbus

COLUMBUS, Tex, Oct. 2l.-Last night
about O'Clock on Main street in scott's
restaurant Will Thurmond was shot and
probably fatally wounded by Anderson
Caussy, stockman from Eagle Lake. The
trouble seems to have originally occurred
between John Gilmore and Causey, who
were using very obscene language to each
other, when Thurmond stepped in and
tried to quiet them. This seems to have
offended Causey, who began abusing Thur
mond, whereupon Thurmond drew his pis
tol and snapped at Causey. Causey then
drew, his pistol and fired, striking Thur.
mond three times, one bullet in each arm
and one in the breast. Thurmond is a
brother of Mrs. Scott the proprietress OF
the restaurant. Causey is out on bond.
