Tom Reed as a Boy.

Burlington Hawkeye: Among the
documents cherished by Chief Justice
Appleton was letter written by one
of his sons while at Bowdoin college.
1t was to the effect that young friend
of his who was in college would go
down East in a few days to teach a
country school during the vacation
season, and young Appleton wanted
his father to go down to the stage
coach house and when the mail came
in seek out his friend, take him home
and keep him over night as he had but
little money. "You will know him"
Appleton wrote, ''by his fat face, home
spun clothes of gray and by his broad
brim hat. He is good fellow, he has
a great head for learning and if he elives
will make a mark in the world. Ii you
don't pick him out ask the stage driv-
er to show you Tom Reed; he knows
him." Judge Appleton went down and
found Tom Reed. He took him home
and gave him a. supper, a good bed
and breakfast, and helped him in
another way toward the school dis
trict. The good fellow has made his
mark in the world"

TARIFF TINKERING EVILS.
An Immense Steel Rail Plant To Be Shut
Down.
Owing to Uncertainty in Future Pricos Or
ders for Rails Are Hard to Obtain
Workmen Affected

CHICAGO, Nov. 23-The Illinois Steel
company's immense steelr rail plant at
South Chicago, which employs about
$500 men, is expected to shut down
on December 18th for a period OF two
or three months. Uncertainty over
the possible changes in the tariff
threatened by the Democratic con-
gress is the primary cause. The exact
duration of the shut down will depend
upon the condition of the tariff ques-
tion.
Owing to the general belief that steel
rails will be rendered cheaper by the
proposed action OF congress in remov-
ing all or part OF the duty on the
product, very few new orders are being
received. and the mills are expected
to be closed as soon as the present
orders run out.
One OF the executive officers of the
steel company said today: 1.-The bust
ness that will suffer the worst blow is
the tin plate manufacturer. Seveal
plants We're to have been put in here,
but they have been abandoned. Tink-
ering with the tariff always means a
reduction, both in the number of
workmen employed and in wages.

DEATH OF JAY GOULD.
The Great Railroad Magnate and Financier
Passes Quietly Away.

New YORK, Dec. 2.-Jay Gould is
dead. He breathed his last at 9:1o
this morning, surrounded by his chill
dren, at his home. He died as one GO
ing to sleep. There were no signs of
pain and he was conscious until a few
moments before he died. A short time
before he passed away he called his
children one after the other to his bed
This done, he closed his eyes and was
dead, almost before his loved ones
realized it.
Mr.. Gould's last illness dates back
two weeks. He took drive at that
time through Central park with his
physician, DIR. Mum, and took cold.
He was suffering at the time from
nervous dyspepsia and was unable to
take much nourishment. As result,
his already enfeebled constitution
could not withstand this slight all
ment. 1t affected his lungs. They had
already shown for years a tendency to
pulmonary weakness. Last week
when he failed to come to his Office it
was said at his home he was only
slightly indisposed. His exact condi-
tion was suppressed until yesterday.
Mr.. Gould began sinking rapidly from
an early hour last night. DIR. Mum,
his physician, had DIR. Janeway in
consultation, but they said that moth
ing gcould be done but make Mr.. Gould IS
last hours as comfortable as POSSIBLE.
Everything known to medical science
had been used to prolong Mr.. Gould's
life, but they all proved fruitless.

NOTORIOUS DESPERATE CAUGHT.
Wyatt, the Most Bloodthirsty of the Dalton
Gang, Arrested in Indiana.

ST. LOUIS, Dec. Ellsworth Wyatt,
of the notorious Dalton gang of train
robbers and general desperadoes, for
whom a reward OF 81 200 is offered by
the Kansas authorities, was surroun-
ded and captured at the home OF his
uncle in Cary, Ind, a little village
twelve miles from Terre Haute, early
this morning. He showed fight, but a
gun barrel thrust in front of his face
weakened him.
Wyatt was one of Bob Dalton's most
desperate followers, and, although not
in the Coffeeville raid, he is wanted for
many crimes. The officers say that
Wyatt is the man who led the attack
on the express train near Coney, Kas.,
few nights after the Coffeyville raid
in which a small amount of booty was
obtained. They also say he is the au-
thor OF the famous letter sent to the
liveryman, John Kloeher, whose gun
did such good execution at Coffeyville
in helping to extiDguish the Dalton
gang.

GOLD NUGGETS.
Some World Famous Chunks Of the Yellow
Metal.

Speaking OF gold nuggets" said the
mining man, "the largest single nugget
ever washed from the auriferous soil

was worth upwards ofS3 300 and lay
a few feet above bed rock on the point
of a bar on the south side OF Snow
Shoe creek"
The next largest chunk from a Mon
tana placer was a beautiful smooth
washed specimen about the size of a
mittened hand and the same form,
taken from bar iutting into Nelson
gulch, about four miles from Helena,
and was worth something over 80 900.
The largest mass OF gold taken out
anywhere in Montana within one
months time by a few men was the
Confederate gulch find of 1S67-2,1S
pounds OF the yellow metal. 1t was
all washed out and cleaned up in a
little more than three weeks by three
men. 1t was brought from Diamond
City to Helena and from here it was
sent to Fort Benton and down the
river by boat, and accompanied by
the three owners on to the mint at
Philadelphia. j. Y. Biedler and a
posse OF ten men were the escort for

MURDER In FIRST DEGREE.
One of the HOmestead Strikers Re.
fused Bail.

By Telegraph to the State Chronicle.
PITTsBURG, Pa, July 27.-At 9.45
this morning Judge Magee had before
him dozen attorneys and about fifty
spectators in the hearing for the release
on bail of Sylveste Crichlow and James
Close. the Homestead strikers, charged by
the Carnegie steel company with murder.
Samuel Stewart, clerk in the Homestead
Office, who furnished his company with
the names of the strikers who carried
guns on that day, said he saw Critchlow
with a gun in the morning, and at
o'clock he saw him behind the strikers
barricade lying on his face. peeping
through port hole. Stewart saw him
aim, press the trigger and fire, and saw
the smoke from his gun. Critchlow's g
attorney tried to break this testimony,
but Judge Magee objected, saying: eve
have direct testimony of a man aiming
and firing, and of the death of man.
This cause is different from O'Donnell's.
The latter's asseveration with the strikers
was for the purpose of preserving peace.
Captain Cooper, a Pinkerton detective,
testified that Conners was shot at IL
O'Clock. Attorney Brennan then de.
manded the release for Critchlow. Judge
Magee decided otherwise. He said: 81
will refuse to accept bail and hold the
prisoner for murder in the first degree ,
An awful ,patlor overspread Critchlow''
face at these words. He trembled vic
lently. He had firmly expected he would
be released as was O'Donnell and tn,
others. James Close was admitted t,
$40, 600 bail, the prosecution not object
ing in his case, nor were any witnesse
produced.

Another Anarchist Behind the Bars

By Telegraph to the State Chronicle.
PITTsBURG, July 2S.-Frederick Mul-
leck, Berkmann's alleged arch-conspira-
tor, is behind the bars at the Central DO
lice station. He came on the limited to
night in custody of superintendent
of police O'Mera. He it was who
sent Berkmann sum of money
a few days before the shooting.
A singular fact that seems to add link
to the chain of evidence the police are
weaving around the suspect is his &C
acquaintance with Emma Coleman, Berk-
mann's New York mistress. Among the
articles found on Mullock was telegram
from the Goldman woman reading
"Come to New York at once; not dan
gerous." This telegram was re-
ceived by Mullock last Monday.
He explains it by saying that
his wife was sick in New York and tina,
she wanted to see him. Six or seven let
ters all written in German, and severa
of them post-marked Pittsburg were
taken from Mullock and turned over to
the New York for translation.

OsDONNELL IN HIGH ESTEEM.
The Report that he had ssSkipped,,
Quickly Refuted.

BY telegraph to the State Chronicle.
HOMESTEAD, Pa, July 28.-The de-
parture Of Hugh O'Donnell from Home
stead last night without telling anybody
in town where he as going, has excited
some comment and repetition is heard
of the story that he had ''skipped," so
prevalent during his recent MYSTERIOUS
visit to New York. O'Donnell went to
Pittsburg last night on the 7:12 train.
He had no baggage with him. 1t was un-
derstood that O'Donnell has gone to Pitts
burg for the evening, while the advisory
committee discussed the allegation that
he offended unconstitutional surrender
to the Carnegie company. His failure
to return excited the apprehensions of
some oversuspicious people, and the story
spread that O'Donnell had fled to avoid
disgrace ON account of his alleged double
dealing. Bat there was no reason for
O'Donnell to feel apprehension, for the
advisory committee took his explanation
for granted, and did not consider the
case. Mrs. O'Donnell says hes husband
is absent on private business but she
don't know where. An attemot to con.
guer the non union workmen in the mill
and get them to leave the works
resulted in failure. A few days age
some anarchistic literature was found
among the workmer and an investiga
tion resulted in the discovery that three
disciples of anarchy were inside the big
fence in the guise of mill workers
These men had been talking among The
mill hands, but had apparently made ne
converts. They were dismissed from th'
employ of the company. A United
Press reporter was taken through tn
Homestead smill to-day by superinten
dent Potter He saw between $50 ant
800 men at work in the various depart
ments. Mr.. Potter said that seven hun
dred men were inside the works.
