Sensational Tragedy in the Streets OF lem
phiz-Oue Young Woman Cuts the Throat
OF Another
MEMPHIS, Tenn, jan. az.-The most
sensational tragedy which has occurred
in Memphis for years was committed
yesterday afternoon, the victim being
a young lady aud her slayer was of the
same sex Both were familiar dgures
iu society few minutes before 4
o'clock "a buggy containing Misses Alice
Mitchell and Lizzie Johnston drove up
to the broad sidewalk around custom
house block, leading TO the levee, just
as Miss Freda Ward, of Gold Dust,
Ark, aud her sister Joe, who had just
put another sister, Mrs Cum
mings, aboard the steamer Rosa
Lee for Gold Dust Ark,
were returning to town, chatting
pleasantly and paying no attention to
surroundings. Suddenly from out the
buggy spraQg Miss Mitchell GraspiHg
Miss Ward by the neck she drew a
bright razor from out the folds of her
dress and without q word drew it across
the throat of her victim
Miss Ward sank to the pavement in
an instant, the blood flowing in tor
rents from the severed iugular.
Miss Ward was tenderly picked up by
the gathering crowd and a passing car
riage conveyed her to Rodgers iuhrm-
[ ary. She was, however, beyond human
[ aid aud expired just as the in6rmary
was reached The body was then taken
| to an undertaking establishment In
I the evening Chief Of Police Davis ar
. arrested Miss Mitchell
{ The cause of the killing is not posi-
| lively apparent 1t is alleged, however,
/ by several persons that Miss Ward had
{ made re emarizs of decidedly uucompli-
meutary nature about Miss Mitchell
| and this latter allegation is supposed
I TO have been the cause Of the tragedy.
Miss Mitchell Is the nine eteeu-y ear-oid
( daughter of George Mitchell, a retired
furniture merchant Miss Ward was
{ the daughter Of John Ward, a planter
. and wealthy merchant of Gold Dust

they indulge in empty phrases and
glittering geuerGlities.
Having eaunciatsd n platform Of
principles they will not only stand by
them but they wilt also declare their
opposition to any and all parties and
men that do not favor them.
The demands of this great industrial
conference will go before the country.
viii the republican party indorse the
demands and nominate men in sym
pathY with them? Wi I the democrat tic
party indorse the demands and place
candidates in ths field pledged to their
support? If both parties fail or refuse
to indorse the platform in unequivocal
terms, and nominate candidates unre-
servedly committed to its principles,
what will the mem bers of these in
dustrial organizations do? VIII they
60 back on their pledges to stand by
their demands
In the meantime the third party-the
peoples party, that is already formed
will continue the work of Perfecting
its organization, and enter the list fully
committed to the demands of the St
Louis conference Ii the old parties
reject or ignore these demands, what
will be left for the members of
the great industrial organizations to
do but to unite with the only party or
ganization in the country that promises
to carry forward these demands? Can
they, as honest men earnestly con-
tending for principles they have pro
claimed as necessary for the welfare OF
the country, and the protection of their
rights and liberties, 50 with any party
( that ignores or rejects their demands!
Where will the alliance people of the

The serviIe press is laying particular
stress on the fact that Congressman

delegation from that state in the St

formation of . third party, and TINS
taking it fer granted that the south is
opposed to third party. Il is a little
surprising, but some Of our alliance
people and peoples party folks have
had wrong conception OF the objects
of the St Louis conference, too
As we understand II, it Is not and
never has bccn the Intention to form
third party at that conference. It viii
be meeting of the delegates OF the
great industrial orgauizs tions to unite
upon a platform embodying in its de-

and other reforms, as now advocated
by these organizations, and bringing
together these oFleEs that have been
travelling toward the same point, but
upon parallel lines
Having agreed upon series Of de
mands the delegates will pledge them
selves and their organizations to stand
by them.
The organizations that Will be repre-
