Four Women Assassinated at Denison.
Tex.-Two of Them the Most Prominent
Ladies of the City-No Clew to the VII
lain.
DEN1soN, Tex, May 10.-Tuesday
night was night of horror in Denison.
Between Ii p. m. and $3.50 a. N. an as
sassin, unknown, brutally and pre-
meditatedly shot and killed four women,
two of them leaders of local society
and two of them inmates of dis
reputable houses.
The first victim was Mrs. Haynes, the
wife of Henry F. Haynes. one of Deni-
sons most respected citizens, prominent
in business and social life. Mrs
Haynes, a young and very attractive
woman, was assasSinated while alone in
her home, or else taken forcibly from it
and put to death by her captor just out
side and near the house.
The residence of DIR. Haynes is just
outside the city limits on Woodlawn
boulevard, two and one-balf miles
southwest of the city hall.
Five hours later, in the very heart of
the city, beautiful young lady, Miss
Teen Hawley, was also shot and killed
by some unknown person. Miss Haw-
ley was killed almost without a word
of warning, in the privacy of her room
in her mothers cottage home.
Between the hours when these foul
assassinations occurred, in still another
and far distant section OF the city two
women We're killed by an assassin's bull
| let. These last two were inmates of
bagnios.
The assassin shot and killed Mrs.
Haynes during the absence of her hus-
band at an Elk lodge. When his victim
was dead the murderer took her gold
watch and chain, diamond ring and ear
drops, and proceeded to the Hawley
| residence, where he shot and killed
Miss Teen Hawley, who was seated on
a bed with her mother when the assas-
| sins bullet came through a screen.
| The murderer had previously entered
the girls sleeping room, where she had
fled to her mother for protection.
The assassin then directed his steps
to the bagnio Of Madame Rivers, where
he fred from the front porch through a
| window. killing Msude Kramer. After
| this he crossed to tie next street, where
| he mortaily wounded Rose Stewart,
who was about to retire to her room at

Present indications all point to the

and the REVIEW, along with host of
other papers, will have the delightful
pleasure Of feasting on crow. Nearly

find Goodhue, Otter Tail, Freeborn,
Stearns, Grow Wing, Polk, Mile Lacs,

has only secured Nicollet and it does
not seem as if he would be in the race.
The machine in the twin cities is also
backing Nelson and will be able to
swing large numbers of delegates to his
support.

Was Robbed after all.

The great desire shown by the express
and railroad officials to capture the men
who held up the Omaha train recently
has led to a general belief that the dar-
ing robbers got a good sized pile after
all. This report is denied Of course, but
the officials would not be apt to confirm
It even If it was true. Several detectives
including one or more from Pinkerton' S
agency, spent a number Of days in Man
kato and at st. Peter, Kasota and other
adjacent points ferreting out the case.
They have finished their work, and what
clues they found, if any, are known only
to themselves. They found the revolver
which the messenger was forced tothrow
away. and also the empty cartridges
which had been fred at the brakeman.
The attempted robbery was conducted
very similarly to that at Racine juno
ton last fall, and some believe it was
done by the same men. It is now be-
ieved that the two men who did the
work had no confederates, and that they
smoked the. cigars in order to use them
to light the fuse Of their dynamite cart
ridges, which were to be used in blow

sibly awaits this proud militia of Penn

foreigner who believes more in the re-
hgglon OF secret codes and the efficacy of

bridges over which the militia must pass
and that the avenging wrath of anarchy
would descend upon this capitalistic
army before it could invade the CITY of
Homestead. The public may look for
no hostile demonstrations unless It be
instigated and lead by that manly ele-
ment that the world calls anarchists and
there is well defined conviction that
this element confines itself rather to the
dissemination of its wise doctrines than
] IN u. facing danger in practicing the creed

the strikers, the men who in the past
have composed the advisory committee

mittee of leadership, the men who brave
ly protected the unarmed Pinkertons
from slaughter after their surrender on
Wednesday are to man opposed to
hostile demonstration and in favor of re-
ceiving the militia with all the Difference
and respect that should be accorded to

one can reasonably doubt that the logic
of these leaders will be all powerful and
that bloodshed at Homestead is thing
of the past.

No Public Building This Year.

A special from Washington Monday
settles the question of public building
in New Ulm and removes all hope of
our receiving one this year. It says:
The st. Paul appropriation is the only
public building bill for the Northwest
that will pass the house this session.
Castle has been trying to obtain 81 ,3OO,-
900, but it is not likely to succeed. The
bill as passed by the last congress ap-
propriated $4OO, 900 and fixed the limit
of cost at $500, 900. Castle expects to
get the limit taken Off but is not sure of
increasing the amount of the original
appropriation. The much needed pub
lie buildings at other points in Minneso-
ia and in the Dakotas can't be erected
because the Democratic house has vast
ed so much money that is has none to
spend in the Northwest, no matter what
the needs of the people there are.

For The Drummers.

The first attempt to amend the inter
state commerce law in the interests OF. the
commercial travellers and Others carry
ilg larg am ounts Of baggage and ira
yelling parties who are on the road great
deal failed in the early part Of the pre-
sent Congress. Representative Lind, who
has always been great, stickler for the
interstate commerce law, saw that if the
bill then under consideration should pass
the house and senate the entire fabric of
the interstate commerce law would be
perforated and the law itself crippled
and be a dead letter on the statute books.
After the defeat Of. that bill another was
attempted, which provided for the issu-
ance Of joint and interchangeable 5000
mile tickets with special privilegesas to
the amount Of baggage that may be car
RED under the mileage tickets of 1 200
miles or more. The committee, in IA
yorably reporting the bill, says that re
peated efforts have been made by com
mercial travellers to bring about such
legislation, and discusses at length the
great benefit commercial travellers give
people, and how they have to penetrate
to the smallest towns. and go to the most
obscure cross roads. Italso states tina,
prior to the passage Of the interstate
commerce law twas the custom of thu
railroad companies to give a special bag
gage permit.
