CHICAGO, Jan. l4.-Ffank T. Hem
dryx. who is wanted in Goshen. Ind, for
a peculiarly cold blooded murder, was ar
rested in this city last night. Hendryx,
while in Goshen, stopped with Joseph
Hawkins, who lived alone with his wife.
Hcndryx ngratiatsd himself into the
affections of Mrs. Hawkins and succeeded
in alternating her from her husband.
Hawkins had an insurance policy of
5000 on his life, and this none Hen
dryx intended to get possession of, and,
with this money once in his hands, he and
the woman would leave for parts I'M
known. The plan pursued by Hendrix
was a novel as well as an atrocious one.
ln some manner he gained from Hawkins
the fact that he could not swim, and in
vited Hawkins and his wife to a boat ride.
When some distance from the shore Hen
drYX deliberately capsized the boat and
being an expert swimmer, righted the
boat and saved the life of the woman,
dragging her into the boat. where they
both sat and watched the dying struggles
of Hawkins. When the body had finally
disappeared beneath the surface OF the
water, they both fowed ashore and gave
out the information that an accident had
occurred and that Hawkins had lost his
life. The authorities, however, became
suspicious. and upon making iuvestiga-
tons HeDdryx fled. TIE woman was ar
rested and placed in Jail, where she made
a confession. Hendryx, when arrested
last night, admitted his participation in
the crime, and slgnifed his willingness to
return to Goshen without requisition
papers.

New YORK. Jan. 1.-THE Freenran' 5
journal today received a letter from
Father Crafts, at Pine Ridge. saying that
he is considerably better and asking that
the press contradict the reports that the
army was to blame for the tragedy at
Wounded Knee. Those reports, he says,
do grave injustice to our soldiers, and are
instirated by those who are adverse to 40
honorable settlement of the present trou-
be and hostile to the desire OF every true
friend Of the Indian that they be perma
nently transferred from the Indian bureau
to the war department. 1t is only by
such a transfer that the Indians can ex-
pect Just treatment. He saws the trouble
at Wounded Knee originated through in
terested whites, who had gone about and
industriously misrepreseuted the army
and its intentions. The Indians we're led
to believe hat the true aim OF the soldiers
was their determination.

game upon several grocers today, fleeing
them out of about SIS each. His scheme
was to call at the grocery and say that
Mrs. CAN'T, giving her number and street,
wanted 81 worth of groceries, and that
she was sick and could not come down
town. He then would say she had but a
$40 gold piece, and that the delivery boy
should take with him sufficient money to
change that amount. He would then 90
to the house, and upon the arrival of the
boy, tell him the diphtheria was prevalent
in the house, and that he would carry
the change and groceries 10 aud bring
back the proper mount. lie would then
disappear.
