MoTIvELEss MURDER.
An Aged Connecticut Couple Bru-
tally Done to Death.


HARTFORD, Conn.,, Aug. 31.-A muir
der more fendlsh than any in the an
nails of crime in this county was COM
mitted in Bloomfield at an early hour
yesterday morning. At that time Henry
Frederick Bushenhagen, aged sixty
nine years, and his wife Emily, aged
seventy-one, were killed by tramp to
whom they had given shelter. Not con-
tent with simply killing them, he had
frightfully mutilated their bodies and
then thrown the bleeding corpseS into
an old we'll. When the fearful crime
was made known the excitement in
Bloomfield was intense. Men, worked
into passion of wrath, hunted through
the adjacent woods intent on appre-
hendlng the assassin, but without avail.
The murder was suspected last night
but not until this morning were the
bodies found. Neighbors who came for
the purpose of investigating found signs
of a. struggle in the barn, and noticed
that the curb of the we'll, ten feet away,
was not in place. Peering down, the
bodies were seen floating on the Shiny,
blood stained water. When they were
removed and an examination was made,
it was found that Mr.. Bushenhagen's
body had four large wounds in the head,
probably made with a coupling pin,
which was found in the yard. One of
the wounds was three inches long, and
the skull was crushed to the depth of
four inches. On Mrs. Bushenhagen's
body were five wounds, every one of
. which crushed the skull. These are be-
Heved to have been made with an axe.
Robbery was not the motive for the
murder. No article was missing from
the house, and it was evident that the
murderer's first thought after placing
the bodies in the we'll was to get away
from the scene,

BOUGHT HIS LIBERTY,
But Love for His Family Put Him
Again in Limbo.

CINCINNATI, Aug. 31.-Detectives ar
rived from Cleveland this morning with
James Anderson, the widely known
prisoner whose sensational arrest and
still more sensational escape from the
Hamilton county Jail has given him
prominence. Anderson was suspected
of being a burglar. His house on Price
hill was watched, and one night an at
tempt was made to capture him and a
confederate. Anderson and the police
men both USED reviewers, sthe confeder-
ate escaping. Anderson was shot in the
leg and sent to jail to await trial. Six
weeks ago escaped. Every effort was
made to show that he had broken Jail,
but it was discovered that he had been
liberated by mOney'a and four Jail officials
have been discharged.
Chief of Police DeitSch, knowing that
Anderson was passionately fond of his
wife and babies, has kept close watch
on them. When they went to Cleve-
land Saturday night he caused de-
tective to follow, and when Anderson
met his family he was arrested. An
derson declares he will not betray his
lberators in jail, though he does not
deny that he bought his freedom. He
says the proposition was made to him.
He will be returned to jail. 1t is prOba-
BILE that he may again buy his liberty,
not with money, but with information
leading to the conviction of the men
who were bribed to allow him to es-

SLAIN IN THEIR SIN,
Two Worthless Vagabonds Shot
for Murder i'm Michigan.

MONROE, Mich, Aug. 31.-John VIII
klnson and his wife were brutality tor
tured and murdered by two tramps Sat
urday afternoon at their farm near
here. The motive of the trampS was
robbery. They found the couple alone
at home late in the afternoon, and de-
mauded from Wilkinson a sum of money
which they had learned he had recently
received. Wilkinson refused, where
and his wife, and, after beating
them almost to inSensibility, tortured
them in the most cruel manner, in the
hope of eXtorting from them the hiding
place of their money. Failing in this,
the tramps became enraged and finished
their fiendsh work by numbering the
couple. RetributiOn, however, was
quick, and justice of the most summary
nature was dealt out to the fiends. A
ten-yeaI-old son of Farmer Wilkinson,
who had been in an clubhouse, heard
the shriekS of his mother and gave the
alarm. The trampS fed, but were hotly
pursued by posse of citizens, who
came upon them near Maybee station.
They were not even given time to say
their prayers, but were shot on sight by
the Infatuated citizens. Their bodies
were completely riddled with bullets.

Queer Mixture of Crime and Ro-

HANOVER. n. H., Aug. 31-During
the last day the man known to the au-
thorities as Frank Almy stayed at the
WheelOck hotel he told Sheriff Wheeler
that the necktie case which Christie
Warden made and gave him at Christ
mas was hidden under the feed manger
in Mr.. Warden's cattle barn, and
search made there to-day revealed the
holiday gift. The outside was of cham
ois skin, decorated with hand-painted
pansies. 1t was lined with surah silk
and bound with pink ribbon, on which
Almy had written From Christie"
1t contained two neckties. Further in
vestigation in the same locality re-
suited in the finding of silver scarf
pin, some penciled sketches made by
Christie and large braid of the victims
hair, perhaps cut from her head after
the assassin had completed his work
under the willows, There were also a
dozen verses of sentimental poetry in
the murderer's handwriting, some of it
original. Another package contained
four handkerchiefs with the initial &c"
in the corner. The paper wrapped
around the handkerchiefS was leaf
from a gnn catalogue, and on it he had
written For Christie" From the same
hiding place were taken ten unopened
cans of salmon, sardines and cOrned
beef, besides bottle of Medford rum.
