What Ipspector Bvrnes Thinks.

New YORK. May 1.-Inspector Byrnes said
to-day in talking of "FTenchy. =" the 'Ripper"
murder, that his detectives were working in
the establishment Of the ownership Of the
knife with which the murder was committed,
and then find the strange man who first en-
tered the hotel with Carrie Brown The In
spector expressed some doubts as to there
being such a man. He said that Mary Minton
had told so many lies that she cannot be be-
heyed The Inspector said that he does not
believe that Frenchy went TO the room with
her IA the first place. If it can be proven that
Frenchy owned the knife or had been seen
with it, it Will be the only link in the chain Of
evidence missing.
The knife used to kill Carrie Brown in the
East River Hotel has been identified as one
taken 10y "Frenchy No. 1" from the Queens

send Him to an Asylum.
EVANSVILLE, IND. May 1.-B. p. Hutchin-
son, the eccentric wheat speculator, who so
mysteriously disappeared from Chicago last
Tuesday night, was found in this city this
morning at a second class hotel, near the
Louisville and Nashville depot
Mr.. Hutchinson says the reason he left Chi
cago was because bis sol was taking steps to
have him sent TO an insane asylum. He does
not think he is insane but severai people who
have known him in Chicago are satisfied that
his mind is not right. He says that in the
last three months he has lost over S3 900 O0O
and biames bis son for his losses. He also
says that his affairs if properly managed,
would bring him q profit Of $500, 000. He
seems to have sufficient money with him for
all his wants
"Old Hutch" left on the Evansville and
Terre Haute ira n for Chicago at O'Clock th
evening. He was taken 70 the train by Ie-
tectlye Wilson. who has been with HIM All
day Just before he stepped into the carriage
to 60 to the depot a telegram was banded 20
him. He opened it and reading hastily SAID:
Don't come home? Well, l Will 90 home
and stepped into the carriage.
CmcAGo. May AT Mr.. Hutchinson's
Office to-day five accountants were busy at
work ON his books THE books are very
much involved " said the head accountant,
and IT is hard 10 say how they will come out,
but il looks now as if there would be a bal
ance in Mr. Hutchinson's favor Of $4,000 or
more.'

Charles J.. Hutchinson has pronounced
cruel canard. I'VE never had any such
intention. 80 he said. My father is perfectly
harmless. and though he has lost a great deal
of money lately, that is his affair He made it
himself. and nobody is justified in interfering
to prevent him from spending it any way that
suits him. 1t is possible, of course, that he
feared we were going to do something of the
kind for who can tell what ideas throng dis

A CREE SHIP BILL.

The free ship bill which was thrown
out by the last Republican Congress Is
to be revived in the present Demo-
cratic House. There will probably be
nocuestion of its immediate passage, aud
there should be none. 1t would restore
the American flag to vessels owned ana
sailed by American citizens, and grant
10 American merchants the privileges
which in the interest OF commerce we
cannot deny to foreigners.
The present would be a favorable
time for the introduction OF such OIL.
There is no possibility that the subsidy
system will be extended by this Con-
gress. AS it stands now, under the Leg
islation Of last year, it Is confessedly
failure. and the restoration OF our mer-
chant marine must be sought on some
different plan.
There is no alternative except that
which is offered in the free ship plan.
Given the right to buy ships where they
can be bought the cheapest, and to re-
celye for these vessels United States
register with the accompanying privi-
leges, American merchants will lind re-
lief from the disadvantages which have
80 long rested upon their enterprise In
the ocean carrying trade.
The industry of iron shipbuilding
would undoubtedly receive an impulse
through the increase Of the feet of the
United Stated merchant vessels, and
purchases abroad would be followed by
construction at home. More especially
would this result follow the removal OF
the tariff tax from important ship
building material.
There is no measure looking to the
relief Of American industry and the
advantages of our foreign trade so like
ly to receive the favorable considera-
ton of the Republican Senate, and it
should be among the first of the tariff
test measures presented.
