ROBBED OF WIFE AND MONEY.

That Was Betts' Reason, He Says, for
 Shooting BIisch.
 PEEKsKILL, N. Y., Nov. 3.-Charles F. Blisch, proprietor of the Eagle hotel in Peekskill, was shot and killed by Henry E. Betts, of Brooklyn. The shooting was witnessed by D. s. Searle, clerk of the hotel and Thomas Foshay, of the Peeks. kill Democrat. Blisch was seated at his desk ill the hotel, when Betts entered with flushed face and eXcitedly exclaimed as he walked up to Blisch, "You have broken up my family and robbed me of $lOO, ,OOOp' At the same time Betts drew revolver, and pointing it at Blisch fired. The bullet struck Blisch in the breast. Betts fired 8 second shot, which lodged under the left shoulder blade, the wounded man having fallen forward on his face.
 Betts then walked toward the door and did not make any attempt to escape. Blisch died without regaining conscious ness a few minutes after being shot. Con- stable Herschel arrested Betts, who told Herschel he had killed Blisch because Blisch had broken up his family and had robbed him. Blisch, who was about forty eight, was formerly connected with the Pierpont House in Brooklyn and the Doc lite House at Oswego, N. Y. He purchased the Eagle hotel ten months ago from Am prose Parsons.
 During the past summer Mrs. Betts ire quently came to Peekskill and stopped at the Eagle hotel. She manifested much in- terest in Blisch and his business. It is said that Betts some time ago transferred a large sum of money and property to his wife, and the common rumor is that Mrs. Betts was Blisch's financial packer. Mrs. Betts is now in South Dakota for the pur- pose of obtaining a divorce from her hus- band

MRS HARTEY'S WILL SUSTAINED
WinSted Citizen, Nov

The case of Walter s. Cowles' appeal from probate, which occupied the jury all of last week in hearing the evidence, and which was to have been argued to- day, came to an abrupt ending this morning by the appellants completely backing out and withdrawing the case from the consideration of the jury, and consenting that Judge Prentice should pass an order confirming the decree of the Probate Court establishing the will thus establishing the fact of the ca pacity of the testatrix, Sarah l.. 0. Harvey, to make the will she did, and that the claimants charge that the tes- tatrix was unduly influenced in making said will, in any way, by the Rev Elisha Whittlesey and his family, were utterly without foundation.
 But two interested family witnesses were offered by the appellant to sustain these charges. while in support of the will and against the charges some 30 of the prominent citizens of North Canaan and vicinity were calied-in cluding his Honor, Ex-Judge Miles T. Granger, Judge Hardenbergh, Rev D, Eddy, President Randall of Iron Bank, Joseph W. Peet, treasurer of North Canaan Savings Bank and others.
 This leaves the will standing, with judgment accordingly. Case was tried for contestants by Henry s. Sanford ot Bridgeport, and Wellington B. Smitt of Winsted, and for the proponents by A. T. Roraback of Canaan, and Donald T. Warner of Salisbury.

A certificate of deposit was sent to Senator Quay at Beaver, who sent on check for $9, ,0OO Senator Quay had no dealings whatever with Bardsley in the matter. MT.

Charges \ oainst Senator Sawyer.

MADISON, Wis. Oct. 31.-Ex-Congress- man La Toilette has made statement over his own signature charging United States Senator Philetus Sawyer with at tempted bribery in the case of the state against exTreasurer Harshaw, to collect interest on state money. The report has created a profound sensation. Senator Sawyer makes an absolute denial of the | charge. For the present no action will be taken in the matter by the attorney gen. eral. AS soon as the public excitement has abated, however, if La Follette's charges against Sawyer are substantiated, Attorney General O'Connor will institute proceedings against the senator
