MURDERED HIS MOTHER.
Shocking Crime Of Young Man That Has
Driven His Aged Father Insane

DURANGO, Col, Sept. 2S-Ralph Ray, the
twenty-year-old murderer Of his mother.
was captured Saturday evening in Canyon
Largo. N. NJ, by sheriff Longnecker. and
returned to this city to-day. He made q
confession TO the sheriff last night. in
which he gave particulars of the crime. He
said. that after he and his mother had eaten
breakfast last Wednesday morning he went
to the barn and took two drinks of whisky
from q bottle he had hidden in the hay.
Returning to the house. he informed his
mother that he was going to Pennington.
n. NJ, to attend the fair. Mrs. Ray re-
moustrated. not desiring to be left alone.
This apgered him, and, as his mother
passed him for the door with o pan in her
hand. he struck her terrible blow in the
back of the head with q hatohet. sinking
the iron into her bead to the handle. She
sank to the floor without a moan, and the
son then plunged bis hunting knife into
her breast three times, wrapped the body
in q quilt. mounted his horse and started
for Mexico. The father returned from his
mine that night. and the crime was discov-
cred sooner than young Ray had expected,
or he would have successfully made his es-
cape across the border. The murderer was
arraigned this morning. and without o
tremor or the slightest indication of re-
morse. pleaded guilty. Mr.. Ray. the gray
haired father of the young murderer, has
gone insane over the terrible affair, and
his life is despaired of.

about precipitated serious state Of affairs.
The indications for some time, indeed
since the reduction of the price of picking
cotton has been inaugurated, have been
that there would be trouble between
the blacks and whites. Cotton-pIcking

In the nclghborhOOd met similar fate.
The demonstration on the part of the
blacks has aroused the entire county. and
the sheriff and Mr.. Bond and q posse Of
fifty men are in pursuit of them.
1t seems that the riOting negroes were
baited with q barbecue in the canebrake

surrounded them In the cane last night.
No casualties are reported, except that two
of the negroes who effected an escape
through the cane and ATTEMPTED to cross

LONDON, Sept. 2s.-There is considerable
STIR to-day in South American circles over
the news from Chilli by way of New York
to the effect that the junta was taking q
hostile course toward Americans. Chilian
stocks were but slightly affected. as the re.
ports did not seem 20 be sufficiently def
mite. If the rumors are confirmed tO-mor-
row. and also the report that the Wash
ington governments has ordered war ves-
sells TO Chilli, all Chilian interests are sure
to be seriously and unfavorablv influenced.
as there is no confidence here in the ability
Of Chill to hold cut for any length of time
against the overwhelming resources of the
United States. even although the Chilians
might at first show superiority at sea.
