LOVED ELS VICTIMS WIFE.

Tragic Result of an Attempt to Recap
ture an Escaped Murderer.
PITTsBURG, Aug. Con the 9th of
June last, Martin Reed, confined in the
Washington county Jail for the murder
OF Alexander Chapel, escaped, and was
not located until today. He was found
concealed inan ice house at Nobleetown.
When discovered by Officers Mcbride
and Orr, Reed refused to surrender,
whereupon an attempt was made to
force the door of the ice house. Reed
evidently determined not to be taken
alive, for he opened fire on the officers
and dangerously wounded Orr. The po-
lice called for help, anda large number
OF citizens OF the place responded, and
another attack was made upon the ice
house. Shot after shot came from
Reeds revolver. No one dared to ven-
ture close to the ice house.
finally Constable Perile placed him
self at the head of number of others
and led an assault on the murderer's
stronghold. The besiegers met with
volley, and Constable Perile was killed.
The death of the officer spread conster-
nation among the besiegers, but they.
rallied and determined to set fire to the
ice-house, thus forcing Reed to surren-
der. Soon the flames spread from one
end of the building to the other, but
Reed did not surrender. and seeing he
had the choice of burning to death, sur
rendering or shooting himself, he chose
the latter. Reeds body was recovered
soon afterwards, burned to crisp,
showing bullet-hole in the head.
The crime for which Reed was con-
victed was the murder Of Alexander
Chappell. ChappelPs wife was a most
attractive woman, and Reed falling in
love with her, planned and executed
the crime IN order to marry her. x He
gave his victim poisoned whisky to
drink.

OMAHA, Neb.. Aug. AT 5-o'clock
this afternoon word was received from
Boston that the directors will leave the
matter in dispute between the operators
and Union Pacific, to be settled by Pres
ident Clark. The latter was at once
telegraphed and he replied that he
would leave the decision with Assistant
General Manages Dickinson. Dickinson
then notified Ramsey, chief Of the tel
egraphers, that the demands would be
acceded to. AS the result, the strike
scheduled for 6o'clock thisevening, is
declared off.
DENVER, Aug. 9--Grand Chief Tele-
grapher Ramsey of the Order of Railway
Telegraphers issued the following ulti-
matum today:
ITO ALL CoNcERNED--Mr. Dickinson
has requested an extension OF time, and
it has been decided to grant him until
pm. today to communicate with the
president and directors. If his answer
ls unfavorable, final instructions will
be wired you. @
If this ultimatum had been ignored,
strike, involving not only the order of
Railway Telegraphers, but also the
Federation of Railway Employees, as it
was claimed by the operators that the
latter organization would support them,
if necessary. to at once enforce their de-
mands. There are 976 operators be-
tween Portland, Ore., and Kansas City
on the Union Pacific, and had they been
ordered out, the road would experience
great difficulty in moving the great
number of special trains during the
Knights, Templar conclave. Every
operator in Denver employed by the
Union Pacific road was ready to 90 out,
