lish the fact that Julia Olive was insane at

for the Smith woman. Her husband had
left her without means OF suppors, and had
purchased provisions and cent them to the

fury she cried: Il will kill you" II will
kill you now" Before she could be inter-

HUNTINGTON, w. VA, Nov. 22.-Allen
Harrison. aged 25 years, was hanged here
this afternoon for the murder Of his sweet
heart. Bette Adams. on April last. Har-
rison was suitor for the hand of Miss
Adams, pretty 16-year-old daughter of
Frank Adams of Big Cabell Creek, fifteen
miles east of Huntington. The parents
objected to Harrison's visiting the girl, and
the girl soon gave him to understand that
his visits should cease. However, he would
follow and beg her to reconsider her refusal
to marry him.
KILLED HIS SWEETHEART.
On April Harrison went to her house
and asked Bette again to marry him. She
requested him to leave Pulling a revolver
from his pocket he shot her twice, the first
bullet penetrating her heart. He then
pulled a vial containing laudanum from his
pocket, but before he could drink it, men,
attracted from the field by the firing, came
and tied him.
The grand jury was Immediately impan-

began at once and continued three days,

part in the deliberations. The senti-
ment of the committee is decidedly in
favor of general reduction, and, as
Aid. Montgomery put if, the matter to
be considered is of the greatest impor-
lance. There was 4 great need, he said.
for reduction. and the heads of several
OF the departments acknowledged this
facr themselves. Aid. Warren wanted
the departments taken up one at time
and the heads of each called in to ac-
quaint the committee where the cut
could best be made.
a schedule of salaries paid employees
and clerks in the several departments
had been furnished the committee by
the comptroller. and Aid. Montgomery
had checked off those who had their
salary fixed by law.
The first department on the list was
that Of the city engineer. and it was
thought best TO SUMMON the head of
that department and let him explain
the salary list.
Aid. Franklin said he had talked with
the engineer. and that official had said
there were some men who could be
dispensed with, but the salaries paid
were not exorbitant.
AsSemblyman Reardon said there
were twenty-eight or thirty men, many
of them inspectors. in the engineering
department.. who could be done away
with without any damage to the city.
Aid. Montgomery said while the SAL
aries of employees in the engineers
department were fixed by the council

was any need for. Mr.. Rundlett said he
didn't see how the number of inSD ectors
could be definitely fixed, as sometimes
more were needed than at others. These
men. he said. were paid only when they
worked. Mr. Reardon said the contract
work this year would not be more than
$500, 600. 1t had been the habit to pay
men for the inspection of work when
there was no necessity. Something
should be done to cut Off the expense.
Mr. montgomery wanted Mr.. Rund-
lett, i'll the interest of strict economy, to
prepare report showing just where a
cut could be made without serious ill.,
jury to the department.
Aid. Warren wanted the matter left
to the engineer to make a report to the
committee as to where the expenses
could be reduced. Ii it were shown that
the services Of none of the employees
could be dispensed with, then the sal
aries would have TO be cut MIR. Rear
don said If the department did S5,O0O,OGO
worth of work some years ago, and had
then only i've assistants, the work ought
10 lie done now, when it amounted to less
than $500 200. with less men.
he engineer said, by way of explain
alton, that while the total amount of
work was not as great as Il few years
ago, the contracts were more numerous
and required inspection. the same as il
each one was large one.

they could not exceed $4,000 per wear.
MIR. Rundlett said he was now running
on less than $50, coo. A large reduction
had been made in the number of the
force. For instance. the cost of the
department in 1899 was s59. 255.
IN 1891 it was $4,000, and
figuring the present pay rolls the ex-
pelIse this year would not exceed S33.-
COD. On being questioned as to what he
could recommend to be dispensed with
ne said one Of the field surveying par
ties might be let go. The last legisla-
ture had given the engineering DEPART
ment the survey work of the park board
and board of water commissioners. This
nad increased the work some. but, as
he said before, he thought as the season
was closing up he could let one of the
field parties go.
Aid. Montgomery wanted to know if
some of the five assistants could not be
let go and the work doubled up among
the others. TO this Mr.. Rundlett said
he thought there was really but one as
sistant, and that was G. L. Wilson. Who
assumed charge when he was sick or
away. Mr.. Wilson's salary was 81, 500

them by the council, and Of course had
been accepted. He thought the livery
for the surveying parties was very rea-
sonabie, and the work could not be
done 10 any advantage without teams.
The distance between points which the
surveying parties had 10 cover made the
matter of livery necessity.
The amount paid for livery was about
$1,000 peryear. Peter Berkey, he said,
was the first one to rent team to the
city engineers Office, and he charged So
per day for the use Of the same.
Aid. Montgomery wanted to know if
could not be dispensed with and the
work divided up among the other four.
Mr.. Rundlett said he did not think this
could be done to any advantage. The
salaries of the inspectors, twenty-five in
number, were then taken up at the sug-
geStlOn of AssemblynIan Daily, who
thought, as did the other members. that
number of these employees coulG be
dispensed with.
The six sprinkling inspector. were
looking, so Mr.. RundIett said, after the
work to see that it was properly done.
Every person who paid an assessment
for Sprinkling, the engineer explained,
made complaints. One man would COM

these inspectors were necessary. Mr..
Reardon said that one man had not been
attending to his duty. Some one asked
if it was J. }. Donnelly, but no name
was mentioned. Mr.. Daily said he could
give the names of two other sprinkling
inspectors who had not been working
for several days each week. Mr.. Rear
don said the inspector he meant had
been employed or hanging around at the
race track for a week or so and did no
work at all. Mr.. Rundlett said he would
give the matter his attention at once.
Mr.. Reardon said he could mention half
dozen men who had not been doing
their work properly. The July pay roll
showed twenty-four men at work.
There were more inspectors than there

per year. and he was well worth that
sum. The other four men who were on
the schedule as assistants were heads
Of the several departments. A. Nun
ster had charge of the bridge work at
salary of 5000. j. w. Mccoy had
charge Of the street department at
salary of Sl,GS0. c. l.. Amman
looked after the general Office work
at salary of s1,S00. and J. Armstrong
was in charge of the plans and drawings
and received $3.50 per year. All of
these gentlemen, he said, were able and
qualified for their work, and he did not
see how their services could be dis
pensed with except by injuring the de-
partment.
The committee switched off at this
time on the letter from the comptroller
asking that the council fix the salaries
of the employees of the department. Mir.
Rundlett said the salaries were the same
as in 1880, and he was of the opinion
that the city council in passing the pay
roll each month had fixed the salaries
all that was necessary. Before the pas
sage of the Bell charter the pay rolls
used to be passed in a lump, but
