KNAVE OR FOOL?
Scudder Sees Faces and Injuries
Two Men.


Two Men.
CHICAGO, March 7.-Henry Fl. Scud
der still hears mysterious voices and
sees strange faces peering i'll at his
window in the Detention hospital. AT
least he still says ne does, and DIR.
Noble, the county physician, seems in
clned to believe him. While the doctor
was eating yesterday his wife and two
children called on him. He was pleased
to see the boy and girl, but as soon as
his eye lighted on his wife he became
excited. "Get out of here" he cried.
Get out of this room. Leave me alone,
can't you. You are one of them; L know
you. You are trying to- torment me.
Everybody is against me-" His wife APP
preached and attempted to sooth him,
but he pushed her angrily away and
again ordered her TO leave the room.
Seeing that Mrs. Scudder was agitating
her husband, DR.. Noble advised her to
leave the room She did so. and the
alleged crazy man Immediately grew
calm. His children remained with him
for over an hour and seemed to have
good effect on him. Scudder'S health
has improved since he went to the hos
pital, and he does not now seem TO be
aIling physically. He eats and sleeps
well, but claims he sees all sorts of faces
peering in at his windows, and other
symptoms OF insanity. DR.. Noble said
he had examined Scudder for several
hours Yesterday, but declined to make
public the result of the investigation.
Late last night, as DR.. Scudder was
walking up and down the corridor in
front of his cell. he suddenly gave
shrek, seized chair, and eXclalming,
$50 you are in League with my wife, are
YOU'D he struck with terrific force a
harmless patient who was also taking a
walk. Scudder was S0On diSarmed by
attendants and thrust into his cell,
where he was manacled and the door
securely locked. He was terribly ex-
cited, and kept repeating. "Ghey told
me to do it,; | could not help it; it had
to be done" The wound given the
other patient, while bad one, was not
serious.
last night upon fellow patient by at
lacking DR.. Noble. in charge of the hos
pital, this morning. He was overpow-
cred. and will hereafter be confined to
his cell.
Contrary to general expectation, DR..
Scudder will be tried in the criminal
court on the charge of murder. The
apparent attempt to railroad him into
an asylum has been niDped in the but.
1t was practically agreed today by
Judge Scales and States Attorney
Longenecker that blunder was made
by the police by surrenderIng the pris-
oner to the deputy sheriff who held the
writ procured by the friends of the ac-
cused. Ii is the intention of the states
attorney to have the charge of insanity
dismissed, therefore, and try DR.. Scud-
der OH the original charge of murder.
The insanity question must be Incl
dental to a trial in the court.

IT is uNFAIR.

In feeling their way to the solution on
the candidacy question, it is unwise for
Democrats to allow their zeal for ia vor-
ties to lead them to unfairness. The
Madison Democrat in Wisconsin is an
intense partisan of Gov. HILL, and in a
recent elaborate article aims to show
from comparison OF the presidential
vote with that for some of the local can
didates that in most of the Western
states in 1888 CLEVELAND was not so
strong as his party. The most striking
evidence for its purpose 1t claims to see
in Minnesota. Here it finds that HAIR
RIsoN's plurality over CLEVELAND
was 3S,O97, while MERRIAM for gov
ernor had but "A, 104 more votes than
his Democratic opponent. WILSON, for
governor. had 1866 mora votes than
CLEVELAND. Out of the state, where
the facts are not known, the figures may
be taken as supporting the use made
of them, but those familiar with the sit
uation know that several thousand Re-
publicanS refused to vote for the party
candidate for governor, as they did two
years later. Most of them carried their
opposition so far as to vote for the Dem
ocrat. If the figures from other states
are no more significant, it is unfair to
put them against the strength of the
head of the ticket in 1888.

CHARGED WITH MURDER.
Coroner's Jury Verdict In the
Bader Case.


About noon yesterday Deputy Coro-
ner Darling and Jury were driven to
the home of Louis Bader at 153 Viola
street. After viewing the body they re-
turned to the deputy's Office and an in
quest was commenced. The state was
represented by County Attorney
O'Brien, and Judge McCafferty was
present to look after the interests of
Patrick Griffin, the accused murderer.
Among the witnesses examined were
William Milligan. S. Booth, Robert
Oakley, Alexander Robinson, j.
McCaughey and others who were
present in the Great Northern
shops when Bader was struck. All saw
the assault. The first witness testified
that Griffin approached Bader on his
left side, while he was at work on a ma
chine. He had struck him several
times, once at least OH the left side of
the head. The others gave similar teS-
timony, and one of them said further
that the day previous Griffin had told
him that Bader had been deriding his
religion and annoying him for some
time, ana he intended to put stop to
it, and was going to LAY him level"
The evidence brought out the fact that
the club used by Griffin was an ash
handle about three feet in length, two
inches in width, and would weigh FIVE
or six pounds.
Shortly before o'clock the jury re-
turned verdict that Bader met his
death from a blow on the head with a
stick of wood in the hands of Patrick
Griffin.
During the afternoon Griffin was
again brought into the municipal court
and his hearing continued until Friday.
County Attorney O'Brien, in speaking
of the case, said it looked dark indeed
for Griffin, whose dependent family
made his case peculiarly sad one. 1t
was probable, he said, that Griffin would
be taken directly before the present
grand jury. and waive any preliminary
examination in the municipal court.

GAR TO KAISER.
A Threat to PuIVerize Russia
Answered.

LONDON, March THE st. Peters
burg correspondent of the Standard
recounts, under reserve, startling
story in connection with the surpris-
ing speech made by the emperor of
Germany at the recent banquet al
Brandenburg. A gentleman who was
present at the Brandenburg banquet.
where Emperor William made his mem
orable speech, remarked to the emperor
"Your majesty should not forget Rus
sia." To this remark Emperor William
is said to have retorted: II will pull
veriZe Russia"
The correspondent adds that when
Count Won Schuvaloff, the Russian min
lister at Berlin, was apprised of his re-
markable utterance and upon investi-
cation, found that what he had heard
was true, he Immediately acquainted
nj. de Giers, the Russian minister of
foreign affairs, with the facts in
the crse, who repeated the
remarks of Emperor William to the
car. The car then summoned to his
presence Gen. Won SchweinitZ, the
German ambassador at st. Petersburg,
and after recounting to him the state
ment made by Nj. de Giers said: ''TelI
your emperor that when he wants to
begin puIyerizing l will throw half
million men across the frontier with
the greatest pleasure"

PooRE. of Huron, insists, in fact, that
there has been a decided gain in
strength, and that they can hold the
Republicans level race. Such faith
augurs we'll for the party, even if it is
rather large for its base. 1t does not
affect the apparent disposition to CO.
operate with the Democrats i'll the ar
rangement of tickets in November.
This is the only danger the Republicans
really feel. The state has but four
electoral votes. yet they may cut some
figure in close contest. If combina-
ton electoral ticket is had, the Republi-
cans will lose them.

cent says Springer has held his own,
and is as we'll tonight as Re was this
morning. He began the night, said the
doctor, under favorable conditions.
There has been very slight return
of delirium and coma this evening, but
as whole he has had very fair day.
The street III front of Mr.. Springer's
residence has been barricaded to all We

been sprinkled Oh the street car tracks
so that no noise will disturb the patient.
The result is beneficial, and the super

has in some measure been allayed, which
the doctor regards as favorable.
DR.. Frank Hyatt, the physician at
tending Secretary Blaine, said this even
ing that there was nothing in Mr..
Blaine's condition to cause any alarm.
Today the fever was much reduced and
the patient was feeling better in every
respect. He will probably be confined
to the house for several days. and in the
meantime will not be allowed to attend
to any kind of business. He may be
able to attend the cabinet meeting Fri

A DASTAKD'S WORK.
Unsuccessful Attempt TO Wreck 3
Fast Express.

PoUGHKEEPsIE, n. Y, March .
There was dastardly attempt to wreck
the fast Chicago express on the Hudson
River railroad Sunday night. The train
was composed mostly of sleeping cars.
1t passed Barrytown on time and was
running at the rate of fifty miles an
hour. Half a mile north of the
station, and at the darkest edge Of
2 the Aspinwall woods, the engine
plOughed into dressed stones, each two
or three feet square, which had been
placed upon the rails. SO sudden was
the collision that the passengers were
thrown suddenly from their seats, and
the greatest CONSERVATION prevailed on
the train. For hundred feet the train
furrowed its way through the obstruc-
ton, hurting the stones III every dlrec-
ton and tearing up ties, but neither the
engine or any of the cars were derailed.
The work was undoubtedly that of one
man, for the reason that on both sides
of the track the ground was soft and
but two footprints were visible.

LOOKING WEsTW ARD.

Senator GoRMAN has not been looked
upon as a probable aSprant for the Chi
cago nomination. AS he is compare
lively young man, the presumption
has been that his opportunity might
come later, but not now. In an express
sion by the Democrats of the Maryland
legislature some time since his name
was not used. although all had voted
Tor him for senator. Now the leading
newspaper of the party in the state
formally presents his name, and urges
shat he is the only Eastern Democrat
who has the good will of all the ele-
ments, aud can carry New York.
No special sensation is caused
by the announcement of his name,
although it is taken to be with
his approval. There is much to be said
in his favor, but the use of his name
only makes more palpable the fact that
the growing feeling of the party is that,
if the Empire stale does not present an
available candidate, he must be sought
IN the West. There is no lack Of strong
and capable men in the East, but the
West has equally as good material, and
the results of persistentiy running men
from the Atlantic slope have not been
such as to leave decided Prescriptions
in its favor The West has not had the
nomination since 1859, and while section
GIism should not have large place in
she selection, the West has become too
great and powerful to be put aside.
The Republicans who have been elected
have all been from the West. Their
greatest and most popular man came
from the East and was defeated when
nominated. The two-thirds rule will
be operative at Chicago, and the pres
ent indications are not favorable for
any man to go into convention with
near that strength. A compromise will
then be required, and it will evidently
be easier to unite on Western than an
Eastern man. That is the present out

CANADA's CRUISERS.
Minister Bowel Deprecates Any
Hostile Intention.

OTTAWA. March 1.-THE dominion
government is about to place three new
cruisers on the upper lakes. One will
be located on Lake Superior and one at
least on Lake Huron. These boats, it
is claimed, are intended solely as reve-
nue. cutters. to protect the fisheries on
these lakes from the illegal and de-
structiye gill and pound nets. Hon.
Mackenzie Bowel. minister of militia,
being seen on the subject, denied that
this was in violation of the Washington
treaty, which allows certain number
OF boats to be maintained in these wa
tiers by each nation. These cruisers, he
explained, will merely be fast light
boats. They will not be heavily armed,
but will carry simply the armament
necessary for their own protection.
There is no intention. he claims, either
oh the part of England or Canada to
violate the treaty in any way.
