KILLED BY A FRIEND
One Kentucky Farmer Fires

a Neighbours Back.
The Murderer Then Decapi-
tateS His Victim With
a Bowie Knife.
The Crime the Outcome of q
Trivial Matter Happening
Two Years Ago.
Jack Chinn's Physicians Say
He Will Soon Recover
From His Injuries.

DANvlLLE, KY, Nov. 16. = James
Clristman. farmer living near High
Bridge, in JeSsamine county. north of
this city, brutally murdered his neigh
Dor and old friend, George Woods, to-
day. Woods was quietly at work gath
ering his corn crop when the words
Your time has come. You have lived
long enough" were uttered in his ear,
and simultaneously charge or buck
shot fired by Christman struck him in
the stomach. Woods fell mortally
wounded, and his assallant, who proved
to be his former friend, rushed from be-
hind a shock of corn and attacked his
victim with bowie knife. Although
Woods was in dying condition he at
tackled him with the ferocity of mad
man and cut his head from his body.
Before the other meli who were at
work in the field were aware of the
murder Christman had made his escape
to the high wooded cliffs of the Ken
lucky river. Though apparently friendly.
Christman has borne i'll will toward
Woods for some time, az the result of
the murdered man having twitted him
over some trivial matter, though Woods
afterwards proved he had no malice
against Chrstman. The murder today
is the result of the little trouble be-
tween the two men two years ago.
A posse Of citizens Of Jessamine, Ger
rard and Mercer counties are now
searching the river cliffs for the muir
derer, who it is thought has hid in an
immense cave near the famous bridge.
A number OF citizens are now guarding
the entrance to the cave. The people of
the section where the crime was com
mitted are worked up to fever heat,
and If Christman is captured tonight he
will surely stretch hemp before dawn.
Woods leaves wife and several small
children. The murderer is a man of
family and has had good name hereto
fore, though it is said that he has shown
signs of insanity of late.

Load OF Emigrants.

Serious Predicament of a Ship
Load OF Immigrants.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.-The Bremen
steamship Weimar is source of trouble
to officials of the treasury just at pres
ent. This vessel is under detention at
the national quarantine at Cape Charles
with 1880 immigrants on board. They
are refused the privilege of landing, be-
cause the federal authorities at Wash
ington are satisfied that they were
brought to this country in clear viola
ton of the presidents orders of Sept. l,
in the clear hope that they would evade
its restrictions. Their detention is COM
plicated by the fact that measles has
broken out Oh the vessel, aud is likely
to spread among all the children there
unless they can be speedily removed to
place of safety. Surgeon General
Wyman is investigating the matter, and
it is probable that the healthy passen-
gers on the vessel will be transferred to
the United States steamer Jamestown,
reported to be available for the purpose.

a Contribution OF 100000.
New YORK. Nov. l6.-The opponents
of Rev. Charles A. Briggs have recently
maintained that tile split between I'm
ion Theological seminary and the Pres
byterian general assembly, which prac
tically was brought about on his ac
count, would result in great pecunary
loss to the seminary. This position has
been strongly denied before, but now
the supporters of the seminary prove
their point by the publication of
letter signed by four generous mem
beers of the board of directors. The
signers of the letter, which was at once
all expression of confidence and con-
tributon of $4,000, were John Crosby
Brown, w. E. Dodge, Willis James and
Morris X. Jessup. Mr.. James gave
100000 of the amount named, and
Messrs- Jessup, Brown and Dodge gave

TAUNTON, Mass, Nov. 16.-Eaves-

crumb from the grand jury room where
the Borden case is under examination.
A deputy sheriff and stalwarI police
man guard the door, and people are

given out that it will take all of this
week and portion of next before re-

hints, however, that there is a lot of
new evidence that will clinch the mat
ter Of an indictment, and that much OF
it will com from chemical experts who
did not show their hand at the prclin-
mary examination.

HARD TO KILL.
Chinn's Physicians Predict His
SpeedY Recovery.

Speedy Recovery.
ST. LOUIS, Nov. 16.-Col. Chinn is
getting along nicely. He rested well
during the day and is not troubled quite
so much with the numbness in his hand
and arm. The physicians predict his
speedy recovery.
The bullet in passing through his
neck took circuitOus course, and had
it at any point varied an eighth of an
inch it would have severed an artery
and caused death. Chinn still maintains
his anger toward Capt. Anthony, stating
that had the shooting been done by Sin
clair, whom he wanted to attack, 1t
would have been all right, but that An
thony had no right to interfere.
AT the track this afternoon there was
considerable quiet gossip concerning
the matter, and the regular attendants
there seemed to be of the same opinion
as Chinn-that Anthony should have
kept out of the affair. 1t is stated on
good authority that Anthony will resign
and leave the city, going back to his old
emplOyment-that OF tracing goods lost
from cars in transit. Nothing can be
learned regarding his future connection
with the East st. Louis people.
Col. Chinn was brought over the river
and lodged at the Southern hotel this
evening. He has been released under
1000 bond to keep The peace for six
months.

bishop Fabre, has been arrested on a

Algonquin language, and that he was
not an ordinary imbeclle, but whole
asylum in himself.

The footpad and overcoat thief is en-,

have been reported several "hold
ups" and numerous cases of
light-fngered work in Railways
and corridors. Last night was
not an exception, as thereswerc several
missing overcoatS reported at police
headquarters. Dr.. Henry ~Berghell,
who lives at 214 Fifth street south. was,
entertaining few friends at tea.
Among them was Wester Axel, distin
guished young gentleman recently from
Sweden. A little after s O'clock they
went to the corridor to get their over
coats, and much to their surprise
and disgust, the overgarments had
mysteriouSly disappeared. Mr. Bergh-
ell mad just purchased the garment at
cost of 5000. Mr.. Axel valued his coat
at 800. There were several other
missing coats reported.
Capt, Iieiu says there is great deal
of corridor" work going on, and that
the people should take particular pains
to keep the doors locked.

A RAILROAD COLLISION.
1t Happily Terminates Without
Loss of Life.

What came near being very serious
smash-up occurred last night Oh the
Great Northern railroad bridge that
crosses from NicoIlet island to Main
street. The OUTGOING freight train en-
CINE and a switch engine collided
and nothing but the GOODNESS of the en-
gineer, who reversed the engine i'm
medidtely, prevented a serious smash
up. The freight train was moving
about six miles an hour, and the switch
engine a little faster. There were no
danger signals, and the hagman at the
crossing had gone home.
There were two guard men OH the
front of the switch engine, who luckily
saved their lives by jumping. There
was but little damage done. 1t is quite
likely, however, that All investigation
will be held TO find out who was respon-
sible for the collision. 1t is said that
several similar events have occurred in
that vicinity lately.
