loading pistol. While he was ramming
home the charge the weapon exploded,
and the ramrod, which was composed of
fencing wire, with lead plug at the
end, made by the victim, was sent
through his cheek across the eye and
came out at the top Of his head.
DR.. Harris stated that when the man
was admitted to the hospital it was found
that the ramrod had passed through his
cheek, on the left side of the nose, into
the infraorbital plate Of the superior
maxilla, right through the eye, going in
its course through the superior orbital

coming out at the top Of the skull about
the middle of the Internal portion Of tho
patictnl bone. The wire portion Of the
ramrod was sticking out Of tho skull
about six inches.
CDR. Charles Ryan, assisted by DR..
Harris, trcphined the skull, having first

removed the lea1cn base came with it,

the Shooting by Lieut..
Hetherington.

BOSTON, March 6.-About 2 o'clock
this morning Fayette WEIGH, an actor.
was shot and killed by William F. Elan
merry, variety performer, professionally
known as William j. Gould. The shoot
ing occurred at theatrical boarding
house, No. 10 Dix place, where Welch
occupied front room on the second
floor. 1t is said that soon after Flannery
and his wife returned home from the
theater last night they and Weldh had
discussion over some personal mat
tiers, during which Welch called
Mrs. Flannery some hard names,
Flannery went to WEIGH, and,
failing to get a retraction from
that individual, fired the fatal bullet
just as Welch was approaching him in
threatening manner with hands up
lifted. Welch fell without a moan or
sign of life. Flannery at once retired
to his room, and sat down quietly. The
police were OH the scene within five
minutes and placed Flannery under ar
rest. He acknowledged doing the shoot
ing, but said it was unintentiOnal. His
intention was to fire over Welch's head,
but he missed the mark by about an
inch. He said he could not bear to have
WEIGH abuse his wife in such vile and
scandalous manner. Mrs. Flannery is a
woman of about twenty-five and is very
fascinating. Several theatrical people
who were in the house at the time of
the shooting have been held as witnesses.

Mr.. SPRINGER WORSE
The Left Side of His Face Is
Again Very Badly Swol-
len.
His Physicians Say There Is
No Cause For Immediate
Alarm.
Silver, Tariff and Reciprocity
to Come Up in Congress
This Week.
The Worlds Fair Appropria-
ton Bill Ready for Intro
duction Today.

WASHINGTON, March 6.-The condi-
ton Of Congressman Springer is worse
today. There is a recurrence of the
Virulent form of erySipelaS which had
once almost disappeared, and tonight
the left side of his face is badly swollen
and the eye nearly closed Periods
of delirium are also more frequent,
and there is today slight ten
dency to stupor-a new phase in his
condition, bit one which his physicians
declare not to be particularly alarming.
The attending physicians held con-
sultati0n late tonight, and at its con-
clusion DR.. John A. Vincent, of Spring
field, ILL.,. Mr.. Spripger's family physi-
clan, made the following statement:
There is no occasion for immediate
alarm. Mr.. Springer is worse today. but
that does not necessarily mean that
fatal result must enSue. This change
is nothing more than might be expected
in the run of this disease. | fully appreci-
ated what l said yesterday-th while
his condition was improved then he
was not out of danger. Throughout the
day yesterday his symptoms were favor
able, but change for the worse took
during the night. While he slept con-
siderably last night, yet it was broken,
restless sleep. There is today all in
creased development of erySipelas on
his face, attended by delirium and coma.
TIE aggravation of the erysipeias.
while, of course, a matter of gravity, is
Rot necessarily alarming. 1t only shows
that there is not sufficient vitality to re-
sist the raVages of the disease. Itshows
low vitality and a lack of physical
vigor. The erysipeas began on
his left cheek and has extend
ed over and covers the entire
face except the forehead. The nose is
very much swollen, with development
of ,vesicles. Both eyes are involved
and nearly closed. The deIirium, of
dition CT the nerve centers. The coma,
or stupor. frequently makes Its. appear
anee after he has been talking in
an aimless way about the business
of the house or the tariff bill. After he
drops off into this state of coma or
stupor, however, it is quite easy to
arouse him again, when he will talk
quite intelligently perhaps for while.
But, after the conversation ceases.
he will lapse into that condi-
ton again. He is very sick
man; there Is no doubt of that;
but it is not Immediately dangerous in
my opinion. Even should the disease
terminate fatally he would probably
pass into cOmatOSe state and remain
for hours in that condition, and possibly
day or two before death ensued. Drs.
GUSTS and Verdi are still with me i'll
this case. Dr. GUSTS, in fact, having
charge of it, as he was the first physi-
clan called. We have consultations
twice day, and are in perfect accord
as 10 the treatment that is being pur-
sued"
At o'clock this morning the attend
ants at Mr.Springer's bedside said there
was no change in his condition, and that
he was resting quietly.

Col. j. B. Geggie. Duluth-The big

WHERE is j. w. POWERS?
A Prominent Chicagoan Thought
to Have Suicided.

to Have SulclOeQ.
CHICAGO, March 6.-James W. Pow
ers, former board of trade operator,
who lost a fortune in the wheat pit, is
thought to have committed suicide. Mr..
Powers disappeared from his home on
Twenty-first streer, near Blue Island
avenue, Feb. 8. He went to the Grand
Pacific hotel the afternoon of that day
and left what money he had, about SIS,
with one of the clerks. He then sat
down and wrote letter to his wife,
telling her that she would never see him
again. He recounted his misfortunes.
and said that as he was unable to obtain
employment and was only burden
to his friends he had determined
to throw himself into Lake Michigan.
The missing man is siXty-five years of
age. He had lived ill Chicago since
1878. During the war he conducted
large hotel in Philadelphia, and specu
lated in various ways, accommodating a
fortune estimated at over 100000. Com
ing to Chicago he bought membership
on the board OF trade, and Specnlated
heavily. He was a plunger, and fortune
favored him for a time, but reverseS
finally came. His wealth rapidly slipped
away, and in 1884 he found himself a
poor man, with no more money OH which
to operate. A daughter of the missing
man was the wife of DR.. Smith. prom
inent physician in Philadelphia, who
died in that city abO ut week ago. The
friends of Mr.. Powers have made dill
gent search for him, and are confident
that he has carried out his plans and
ended his life

THE BIG THREE.
Tariff, Reciprocity and Silver
Coming Up This Week,


Coming Up This Week.
WASHINGTON, March 6.-Tariff, reci-
procity and silver are each and all
likely to be brought into discussion in
the senate during the coming week.
Mr.. Voorhees, has signifed an intention
of calling up Mr.. Hale's reciprocity res
Olution for the purpose of addressing
the senate upon it. Mr.. Aldrich is I'M
derstood to be ready to report the re-
suit of the Investigations that have been
conducted by the subcommittee of the
committee on finance into the workings
of the tariff, and Mr.. Dolph has given
notice of an intention tOSpeak upon Mr..
Stanford'S bill to provide a sound cir
culating medium with special reference
TO its bearing upon the agricultural in
terests. The pure food bill is still the
continuing order after the morning
hour. The programme in the house for
next week will embrace the preliminary
debate upon the two vital economic
questions of the day-silver and tariff.
On Monday the resolution from the
committee on rules for day to consider
the silver bill will be in order. 1t is
generally expected that the resolution
will be passed. as the silver men esti-
votes. Several Republicans are counted
with the anti-siIyers wing. 1t is
not expected that the whole
day will be occupied in the
discussion, and it is probable that some
general legislation will be accomplished.
Monday being suspension day, Tuesday
the opening skirmish on the tariff ques-
tion will occur. The discussion will not
be confined to the three bills reported
from the ways and means committee
(without binding Irvine and cotton ties),
but wide latitude will be given the
debate and members will be allowed to
discuss any phase of the tariff. 1t is
understood that the debate will be
opened byl Mr.. McMillin loving to Mr..
Springer's illness). and that the time
will first be accorded to the members of
the ways and means committee in the
order of their committee assignment.
While no one can state with certainty
the length of the discussion, it is gener-
ally believed that the entire week will
be consumed. Should this not occur,
the sundry civil or the army appropria-
ton bill will probably be considered.

The Michigander Will Not Antag-
OniZe Harrison.

WASHINGTON, March 6.-The situa-
. ton surrounding the Republican presi-
Dental nomination has beeen partially
cleared within the past week by the
definition of the status of one of
the gentlemen named in connection
with the nomination. Several confer
ences of friends of Gen. Alger have
been held to discuss the probabilities in
+ his favor. and it may be said that in
Difference to the views of his friends he
has decided to make no aggressive
canvass for support against Presi-
dent Harrison. Among those who
are said to have counseled this
course are the Michigan senators and j..
S. Ciarkson, chairman of the national
Republican committee. They advise
himsiit is said, to be satisfied with the
support of his own state delegation.
which, it is assumed, will be given to
him without question. Then, If at Min
ineapolis it should develop that Presi-
dent Harrison cannot command the sup
port of a majority of the delegates, Gen.
sAlger and his friends will be in posi-
ation to seek the votes of delegates with
out antagenIzing the administration.
This course. they argue, will result more
satisfactorily and substantially than
any other he could pursue.
