St. Louis Demands Merely Deferred,

The President Of the Farmers
Alliance, who edits the Clinton Caat-
c0sian, announces in the last issue of
his paper that a"majority of the
Alliance" favor the Government
ownership of railroads, steamboats,,
telephone and telegraph lines. But,
he adds, that sit was decided that it
was not lest for the State and the
cause of reform to demand that
much in this political fight. It
will content itself this year with
only forcing "the Ocala Demands,
he says. That means the Sub
Treasury scheme-the grasping
bankrupt Government now borrow
ing money at from 8 to 5 per cent.
to lend money at 2 per cent. to one
class of needy people-the farmers.
Now let all the other needy classes
lock hands and "demand" some of
this 2 per cent. money to aid them
also in their impecuniousness, This
is not a class country. The farmers
all along have been d%enouncing class
legislation. Were they sincere in
this? If so, how can they ask for
class favors for themselves viii
they not agree that all other classes
have quite as much right to the
privileges and blessings of the Gov
eminent as they have? viii they
be selfish?
So it is Ocala now. The Presi-
dent of the Alliance serves this no
tice. "In the meantime the organi-
zation will go on with its campaign
of education on the st. Louis de-
mands". That is, the Alliance is
in favor Of the Government owner
ship of railroads, ETC., the extremes
ceptralizing, strong government, des
potic demands known to American
parties and political history-an6
will make the fight after the mex
election On that extreme measure
that is only worthy of a people WIZ
have already lost their liberties. =
1t may come to pass yet that Demo
Gratis and Republicans may have t.
get together to save the countr..
from the rule and ruin party of i'm
practicables, 1t may yet become
necessity that the two old partie
shall lock shields in opposition t
financial clanks and revolutionist
who seem bent on destroying the Re
public. When the Government
threatened to be transformed into
regular huge pawn-broker's sho
and into a Strong Government de-
potism it is high time for the pc
/. triots of the country to combine fc
its salvation.

TIE MURDERESS TELLS HER STORY.
Alice Mitchell Relates the Killing Of Freda
Ward with Cold B.soded Nonchalance.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. July 27.-The ninth
days proceedings n the Alice Mitchell in
sanity inquiry found the case of the de-
fense closed. The State opened its rebut-
tai by the introduction of Mrs. w. H. Volk-
mar, sister of Freda Ward. Mrs. volkmar.
after preliminary testimony concerning
the action Of Misses Mitchell and johnson
during their last visit to Golddust. told of
tho discovery of Freda's pfan to leave
homo and join Alice in Memphis. Freda
seemed SO ashamed at it that Mrs. Volk-
mar and her husband promised not to men,
tion the matter again. Alice impressed
her as an extremely wild. wayward and
unladylike girl. There was nothing in her
conduct to indicate that she was mentally
unsound.
Ashley Roscll was next called to the stand.
He said he had met Alice Mitchell several
times. Had correspondent with Froda and
Alice. He admitted the letters he wrote to
both Young women we're some " hat ardent.
He received the last letter from Alice o fe W
days before the killing He said there had
been no engagement between Alice and
himself, adding that he did not expect to
marry her. Witness, continuing. said that
Mr.. Edrington. of the defense, had the let
ters he had received from Alice. The
letters were sent for, but not introduced in
today's proceedings.
Miss Mitchell herself was next placed on
the stand, and there was great craning of
necks by tho audience TO get a view of her.
She suffered no embarrassment, but an
swered all tho questions nationally. She
said she had known Freda ever since sne
could remember. The defendant told of
her following Freda. and of the latter wink
ing at her with her right eye, which signi-
tied Il love you"
She told this coolly enough. but when
she came to following Freda down the hill,
saying Il wanted to see her once more"
she burst into tears. Thcn followed a most
remarkable scene, unparalleled in court an
nails, perhaps. This young girl, without
displaying the slightest remorse or even
nervousness of manner told down to the
most trivial detail the story. of how and
why she murdered Freda Ward. She said:
Il took the razor out while going down
the hill towards the boat. When / reached
Freda cut her with the razor. As cut
her throat she tried to say something.
intended to cut Froda's throat and then
mine. but her sister 10, by striking mo with
an umbrella, disconnected me, so, after
slashing at 10. followed Freda and cut
her again. All wanted to do was to cut
her to kill / loved her better than
any one in tho world"
Miss Mitchell finished by expressing .
desire to die, now that Freda was no more.
Miss Purnell, who was with Frcda and 10
Ward when the tragedy occurred. was mex {
placed on tho stand. but no new features
were developed. General Peters then stated
that the State had nothing further to offer.
General Wright said the defense was will
ing to submit the case without argument.
Judge Dubose at this time continued the
case until Friday morning, when he will
charge the Jury.

Special TO the Indianapolis Journal
EVANSVILLE, Ind, July %. About
O'clock this evening people living in the resi-
dence portion of the town were startled to
see q man come running down the street
with hat off and . stream of blood gushing
from bis breast. He ran into an alley, but
came out again and entered Dr.. A. III.
Bryan's yard, falling as he got inside. He
lived but q few seconds, and was dead al
most before any one could reach him. The
man was Jack Robinson, and his death
was the result of desperate quarrel with
William Kurtz, for years his bosom friend
and companion. There were no eye wit
nesses to the crime, but the murderer has
acknowledged that it was done in
q heat of passion. The two young men
have been boon COMPANIONS since boy
hood, but about q year ago Kurtz married
and the two were of necessity separated.
Mrs. Kurtz was not true and dutiful wife,
and in the course of time fell in with Rob-
inson. Their amour came the knowledge
of Kurtz and he resolved on fearful re-
venge. He met Robinson to-day and the
two proceeded to get drunk together.
Toward evening they had several desper-
ate quarrels. but generally ended by taking
another drink.
They finally started up the street togeth.
or, and here q link is broken in the evidence.
Nothing is known except the subsequent
fight and death of Robinson. Kurtz refuses
to tell anything of the crime. He cody
followed the victim MP and stood
across the street while Robinson was dy-
ing. His brother-in-Iaw. Police-turnkey
Albers, came along, and. seeing Kurtz,
called TO him, intending to inquire into the
trouble.
The murderer came across and said:
We'll, you've got me-"
Then Albers first learned the full nature
of the crime. The cut was horrible one.
1t had been inflicted with a common Bar
low knife. The blow had been struck
downward full at the heart. and, turning,
severed the cartilage OF the sixth and
seventh ribs, cutting the diaphragm
and exposing 'the upper surface of the
liver. A piece of flesh as large as ones
hand was cut ompletely out Then as his
victim turned to run he was stab bed in the
back. Death resulted from internal hem
orrhaRe. Kurtz Is In jail and seems TO feel
no sorrow for his awful crime.
