road Man at Fort Worth. -
Special to The Statesman.
FORT WORTH, Tex, Oct. 25.-The
dead body of Martin Mooney, an en-
ploye of the Fort Worth and Rio
Grande railway, was found this morn
ing, hanging from the limb of a small
tree on, the bank Of the Trinity river,
just south of the city. There were no
evidences that Mooney met his death
by hanging. The body bore none of
the signs of death by strangulation,
and the feet rested on the ground.
Mooney had Rio Grande time check
for one hundred and seventy-eight dol
lars in his possession when he came to
Fort Worth a few days ago. He was
seen Friday night in a disreputable
part of the city. The supposjtion is
that he was enticed into some dive,
drugged and robbed, and died at the
hands of his assailants, who, during
Saturday night, conveyed the body
to the country and placed ii in a posi-
ton to convey the impression that
their victim had committed suicide
The murderers evidently thought the
body would not be found for day or
two, when identification would have
been impossible.

Unearthing Old Frauds.

INDIANAPOLIS, July 3l.-John W.
Coons, formerly deputy auditor of In
diana, was sent to Washington by Gov
Hovey several weeks ago to learn why
the state had not been paid $4,000, due
on the old war loan claims.
He instituted an investigation which
has resulted in the discovery that there is
really 100000 due Indiana, and assur'
ances have been given by the government
officials in authority that the amount will
be paid. A detailed report of the investi'
CATION will be made public in day or
two. The investigation has disclosed
some very remarkable frauds.
One voucher in favor of well-known
physician, for $3.50, was raised by un-
known persons to $3.50, and collected.
The discoveries of Mr.. Coons have
opened the eyes of the Washington Off
cials and they have instituted an investi-
CATION which will, it is believed, disclose
extensive frauds.

perance association from the fact that at
the forthcoming Grand Army banquet
at Detroit it is proposed to spend $4,000
for the liquors to be served at 800 plates,
does not seem to subsde. Many leading
temperance women have been quite
active creating sentiment against what
they characterize as debauch, and it is
said that quite number of very premi.
nent Grand Army men who will go from
this city have already promised their
better halves that they will make them
selves conspicuous by their absence
from the banquet in question. 1t is not
improbable that the temperance women
will distribute some literature On the
subject at Detroit next week in which the
Grand Army will be urged to bar out the
whisky drinkers and the politicians, and
will ask that official action be taken by
the encampment to prevent future gath
erings being turned into monster de-
bauches.

"The silver question will be an issue,

a very close vote, and the sentiment of
the party is divided in the state. 1t would,
perhaps, have been more of an issue had
anyone other than Major Mckinley head

ton forces the tariff issue, and upon that
the Democrats must stand or fall"
