Tho Corner Stone of the Masonic Temple i
ChicaEo Crumblss to Pieces.

The Corner Stone of the Masonic Temple in
ChicaEo CrumblsS to Pieces.
CHICAGO, ILL, March 22.-Members ol
the Masonic fraternity in Chicago are in
sore distress. The great corner stone oi
their monster new twenty.story temple,
laid with such pomp and ceremony,
lies in pieces on the sidewalk at the cor
ner OF State and Randolph streets. An
investigation will be necessary.
Friday evening gang OF workmen
began the task Of placing in position
a big iron column which should have
passed through square hole In the cor.
ner stone. But the hole was too small.
Plans and specifications were consulted
and the bosses having convinced them
selves that their material had been made
according to drawings, ordered the
workmen to take the corner stone down.
It was built in sections and in spite Of
the fact that the Grand Master had re.
ported the work OF laying 1t as truly and
akillfuiIy done, it was found TO be in a
crumbling and unsound condition.
In few minutes the unskilled labor.
ers had undone what had taken skilled
craftsmens hours to complete. Sections
OF the stone were scattered over the side
walk, and the heavy column was low
cred and b6lted into its place. The con-
tents OF the stone were taken In charge
by a foreman, who will turn them over
TO the proper authorities.

and the murderer, with his body riddied
With bullets, escaped to the hills. Such
is the RECORD Of tragedy enacted near
here last evening,
The murderer Is called Fred O. Fitz-
simmons; also A. g. Budd, but his true
name is said to be 7. G. Andrews.
The shooting occurred early In the
evening at q house near Bull Run, in
Miftlln township, whittier the detectives
went armed with q search warrant To ar
rest their man.
Andrews was wanted for q number Of
crimes, but more particularly on the
charge OF being the leader in the rob
berry, some Two months ago, Of ]. F.
Schneider's jewelFy store, at Homestead,
Of some S, 500 worth Of stock.
Gilkiuson stepped iorwNd and tried
the door, but Q woman, said to be An
drews wife, appeared and attempted to
close 1t in his face. The officer then
forced the door open and stepped inside.
Immediately Andrews appeared and
opened FIRE upon them with q 3S.calibsr
Smith 4 Wesson revolver. AT the first
shot Gilkinson fell with bullet in his
brain, and then two more were sent
crashing into bis PROSTATE form by the
iniuriated desperate.
Detective Murphy says the whole
thing was 90 pnefpected and transpired
90 quickly, that before he could realize
what had happened Il was eyer, and
Andrews, with the smoking revolver In
his hand, was blazing away OF him.
Murphy, obeying hip first INSTINCTS,

But his vile, in some manner, placed

through the smoke and confusion the
firing recommended.
Murpby's revolver was empty. BE lell
upon the floor, aud, feeling tor Gilkin'
sons body, appropriated the latter's re,

OF the room where the last ahot came
from as he arose, but as there was nc
counter shot he realized that his foe was
