An Apt Reply.

A certain queen of Hanover once
upon time when travelling stopped at
an inn called the "Golden Goose" She
remained two days to rest herself and
retinue and receive such entertainment
as was needed, and for the same was
charged 300 thalers.
On her departure the landlord be-
sought her with obseqious Difference to
favor him with her patronage on her
return.

PARIS March ia telegram fir
Berlin says that late reports that
Chancellor Won Caprivi and Count Won
Zedlitz-Trutzch1er have resigned, ow-
ing to differences that have arisen over
the primary education bill, are con-
firmed.

Berlin correspondent says: AS a nat,
ural result of the resignation of Count
Won Zedlitz, the chancellor also ten
dered his resignation. but the ON
peror's decision in the matter will
probably not be known for some days
to come.
BERLIN, March 19-Its now appears
certain that Count Won Zedlitz-Trut
schiller resigned his Office at the termi-
nation of the cabinet council Thursday,
and that he was prompted to take this
step by the statement made by Emper-
or Willinm that he did not wish
the primary education. bill passed by
a one-sided majority. The withdrawal
of the bill after forcing it through the
committee in a practically amended
form would be a confession of great
weakness on the part of the govern
ment, Chancellor Won Caprivi's atti-
tude in regard to the much discussed
measure having been quite as that of
Baron Won Zedlitz-Trutschler
The emperor sent DIR. Lucanas to in-
duce Count Won Zediitz to reconsider
but it is believed that he declined to
withdraw his resignation
Chancellor Won Caprivi's intention to
resign is becoming. more decided He
has represented to the emperor that he
4nust identify himself with Count Won
Zedlitzs whose views che personally
shared. In the event of the chancellor
resigning, IT will be dificult teeantici-
pate his successor or a possible com BIZ

, TIFFIN, O., March 16.-Walter' A.
Snyder, aged about As years, unmarried
and one of the most popular men in
the city, this morning attempted the
life of Edward T. Naylor and Burton W.
Crobaugh, mem bers of the firm by which
he was employed, and that ofoThomas
Downey, a fellow clerk. and then
killed himself He was no doubt in
sane.
Snyder entered the store as usual this
morning and found the others already
there. He made pretense of desiring
Naylor and Crobaugh to examine the
contents of a box which he had just re-
ceived by express, and when they were
at his side he shot them both. and then
turned his revolver on Downey, who
had entered to save the lives of the
others.
All the men in the tragedy stand high
in the community and business in the
city is practically suspended. while
hundreds OF people throng the street in
front of the store where the bloody
work was done
Snyder was member of the Forty
ninth regiment during the late war and
Naylor was with the Eighth Ohio. All
save Snyder are married and have
families

THE LIVERPOOL BENDER.

Deening, Alias VILLA ms, the Liverpool
wife Murderer, Arrested In Australia
Fears of Lynching.
PERTH, Australia, March 19.-Deen-
ing who is accused of having muir
dered his wife and four children in En-
gland, was brought TO the city yester-
day by officers, going to Melbourne,
where court proceedings will be taken
against him The prisoner was strongly
guarded and every precautiou taken
by the authorities to prevent him from
attempting to make his escape and to
guard against his being attacked by
the excited people, fears being enter
tanned of a dangerous outbreak of pop
ular feeling against the murderer.
The railroad station was damned with
a great crowd of persons when the
train bearing the prisoner and his
guards reached the city.
AS soon as the cars came to a stand
still the crowd, which had been pa
tiently waiting at the station for long
time, made an exciting rush toward
the car which the Deening party occu-
pied for the purpose of catching
glimpse of the now famous Grim
inal. The constables who had
charge of the prisoner at once
hurried Deening from the train to
a vehicle which had been held in readi-
ness to convey him to the Jail A yell
ing, hooting mob of men and boys
started after the carriage, but the
driver whipped up his horses and soon
outran his pursuers and in a short time
had safely landed Deening in the insti-
tuition where he will remain for few
days until the formal magisterial in
quiry is held and he is remanded.
The detectives who hunted the pris-
oner down were intervie wed after their
arrival here. They said that when
Deening was arrested and was ques-
toned about the terrible charges made
against him, he affirmed his complete
innocence of the crimes. He gave his
name as Swanston, and declared that
he had no knowledge of the man known
as Williams, He said that he was a
resident of Windsor.
The detectives also gave the infor-
nation that the prisoner had tainted
twice during the journey but that
otherwise he appeared to be in cheer
full frame Of mind. He was voluble
and was very willing to talk about the
murders attributed to him. He seemed
to be confident that when the proper
time came he would be able to prove
his innocence. The police claim to pos
sess prove of his identification They
seized some of his goods and among
other things which fell into their hands
were batch of letters and a basket
containing female clothing.

Horrible Discoveries Made In Liverpooi-A
Parallel TO fhe Bender Case-was 1t Jack
the Ripper?
LIVERPOOL, March 17.-Some time
ago a woman and her children who
formerly lived at Rain Hill, part OF
Liverpool, disappeared. At Melbourne,
Australia, a man named Williams was
arrested later charged with numbering
a woman there. He was from here,
and investigation was at once
set on foot here. The police to-
day went to the house formerly
occupied by the persons in question,
lifted hearthstone from its place and
after half hours digging discovered
the body of the missing woman. This
was lifted from its resting place, and
Immediately beneath it were found the
bodies of two children. The murderer
had made liberal use of chloride of
lime to destroy the bodies of his vic
tins, and his object had been in a
measure attained.
After the three bodies were taken
out the police continued their digging,
1t being rumored that the bodies of
other women who had visited Williams
were missing. Soon the bodies of two
other children were found.
The further the affair is investigated
the stronger grows the belief that Will
liams is none other than the world
known 'Jack-the-Ripper." While a
resident of Liverpool he made frequent
visits to London. The police have
traced his movements between the two
places, AID it has been found that his
visits to London correspondent with the
times that the unfortunate women in
the Whitechapel district were found
with their throats cut and their bodies
mutilated.
A description given to the police of
the appearance of the men seen in the
company of several of the unfortunate
women whose bodies were subsequent
ly found lying in pools of blood in the
streets of Whitechapel TALES exactly
with the appearance of Williams as
given by the people in Liverpool who
were well acquainted with him.
The brutality of the murder suggests
the ferocity of Jack the Ripper"
The work of concealing the bodies
was carried out carefully. After a
deep hole had been dug. the bodies of
the woman and two of the children
were thrown in and cement was poured
upon them. The bodies of the two
other children were thrown in and
more cement was poured into the hole.
Next the fiagstones were laid over the
top of the hole and finally over all was
applied o layer of cement extending
over the entire kitchen.

THAYER'S CASE DISMISSED.

It Is Thought This VIII Practically End the
Governorship Contest
LINCOLN. Neb., March 1.-THE SUI
preme court yesterday morning called
up the case of the state ex rel, Thayer
against James E Boyd, and on motion
of Gov. Boyd's counsel sustained judg-
ment and dismissed the case at Thayer's
costs This practically ends the case.
The court might allow it to be rein
stated, but no steps have been taken in
the matter of applying for such pro-
cedure and none are likely to be taken.
Thayer says his Texas interests oc-
cupy all his time. In the event that
the case was. agaiu taken up Gov.
Boyd would continue to act and it
would be impossible to secure a de-
cision before his term of Office expires.
This removes the greatest induce
ment Thayer could have for continuing
the fight The republican politicians
are averse to keeping the fight up, and
Thayer can hardly go on without their
aid and sympathy.

Tho Liquor Interests Excited Over . Pro-
vision in the Pure Food Isiil.
WASHINGTON, March 16-Represent-
atives of the liquor interests have been
aroused rather suddenly to the impress
sion that there is grave danger for
them in the so-called pure food bill
which passed the senate last week.
They were at the capital yesterday in
NUN bers, and were canvassing the
prospect OF changes by the house. The
bill has gone to the house committee
on interstate commerce Mr.. Hatch
committee on agriculture has a
similar bill, and before the chairman
left for Missouri last week had al
most finished consideration of it. Had
Mr.. Hatch been here he could probab bly,
have insisted on the reference of the
senate bill to his committee, where it
belonged Since it has gone to the in
ter-state commerce committee that
body has decided to hear intereste
parties. The temperance people see an
opportunity to get in some work and
have applied for day before the COM
mittee. They have discovered stimuli
taneously with the 1iquormen that the
bill which was primarily intended in
the interest of pure food really puts
check on certain brands of
whisky and wines The bill prohibits
any adulteration of drink" as well as
food which is calculated to lower the
quality or strength and deceive the
purchaser. 1t for bids mixing and col
oring It also strikes at false brands.
The saving clause. which is all that
stands between the liquormen and
wholesale condemnation of many of
their products. is this: provided that
an article of food Or drug which does
not contain any added poisonous in
gredient shall not be deemed to be
adulterated.
This clause the temperance people
will try to have amended to read in a
form much more sweeping against the
liquor business as follows: Provided,
that an article of food or drug which
does not contain any added or mixed
ingredient. deleterious or poisonous to
health, shall not be deemed to be
adulterated. That would give wide
latitude to reach the handlers of
liquors. The liquor lobby is up in
arms to fight this, and defeat the
whole bill, if possible.
