A STRANGE LOVE.
DR.. e. T. BreedlOve's InfatuatiOn
for Isaac III. JudsOn.
He Suicides Because it Is Urequited-'I Can
No More Live Apart From You
than Fly'-His Last Letter

ST. LOUIS, Feb 13.-That the peculiari-
ties of the Alice NIitcheIl-Freda Ward case
at Memphis are not confined to the femi-
nine sex, was demonstrated by the suicide
here this morning of DR.. E. T. Breedlove,
Of Baltimore, Md. This morning inmates
of Hursts hotel were startled by pistol
shot. a few seconds later Isaac M. Judson
rushed down stairs and informed the pro-
prietor DR.. Breedlove had just shot him
self. Hurst at once rushed to his room,
where he found Breedlove's dead body.
The man had shot himself in the right
temple and death was evidently instan-
taneOus.
At the police station Judson said he was
in the room when BreedloYe shot himself
and gave the cause of the act as despon-
dency aud strange attachment to himself
(Judson). This latter remark is most sig
nifcant when taken in connection with
letter found among the dead mans effects
1t says in part: 81 came, intending first
to kill you, then myself. l shall only make
an end Of my own miserable existence.
My love for you has been my ruin. 1 can
There is but one thing 1 could
have and that is to pass
the remainder Of my life in
your presence. l shall do that, anyhow,
for to die in your arms relieves death of
half its terrors. 1t IS cruel for me to do
| this act, for it will blight your life. L
should be more cruel to myself to try to
live without you. You have done
all but one right and effective
thing to save me and make me,
| but it has all failed. L would gladly beg
steal, do anything; forego riches, forget
! friends, home, kindred, for n life of bliss
full association with you. The blow will
probably kill my mother; [ shudder to
think of it. We might have been happy
together had it not been for
your rich friends, your high social
and business standing, your high ideas OF
morality, which you never fill, but it is too
late and must come. Goodbye, Isaac, won't
wish you happiness; you will never have
that again, and you will follow in my
footsteps some time. Men of our
natures and sins must have their
punishment and ours comes in a terrible
shape. You are mine in the sight OF
heaven and no family ties can claim you
from me and death. 1 have loved you bet
ter than you have ever or will ever be loved
again. Pray for my soul. Amen"
Scraps of other letters of the same tenor
were found in the room. Judson says he
has been the intimate friend of the suicide.
For some time past Breedlove has been de-
pressed in mind over financial matters and
his failure to establish himself in his
profession. Judson went this morn
ing to the hotel to see
Breedloye, who was about to
leave on a visit to Baltimore. AS he
entered the room, the doctor handed him
letter, and while he was reading it he
heard the fatal shot. The parents Of the
suicide live in Fort Smith, Ark.

FRITZ OCHMAN.
He Attempts to Break Into the
House of a Widow.
Her BrOther-in-Law Warns Him to Desist-He
Does Not and Is shot-He Is
Sheep Herder.

Boise CITY, Ida, Feb. 23.-[Special tele-
gram to THE HERALD. Last night after
midnight, sheep herder named Fritz Och
man, while IN state of intoxication made
several attempts to break into a house
where a widow woman lives. Evidently
he thought she was alone and intended to
accomplish his evil purposes without inter
ference from anybody. However, John
Allen, brother-1n-law of the woman, who
hauls wood from the mountains, happened
to be stopping all night. He warned
Ochman to desist but finding his ap-
peals unayailing, he shot him, infic,ing
painful and dangerous wound in the
| shoulder of the assailant. Doctors Sol
lister and Birmingham were called and
probed the wound, but so far have not
been able to extract the ball. Ochman is
still in critical condition. Allen was not
arrested, but came to the officers and gave
himself up.
! At mass meeting of labor men last
night, Thomas Miller Smith, who is trying
to publish mining and stock paper here.
took occasion to abuse the Typographical
Mark, of the union in this
city, mildly interposed, when Smith
struck him. The printers are highly in
dignant over the outrageous conduct OF
Smith. Smith stated in his speech that he
would have nothing to do with union print
ers, but to-day when the union threatened
to draw off their men from his Office he
came down handsomely and signed an
agreement to employ union men and pay
the union scale.

Garza's Band Entirely Dispersed.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.-The secretary Of
state has received the following from Min
ister Ryan, Mexico, regarding the condl-
ton of affairs in that country; According
to adyices of the Mexican government,
Garza's bands, organized solely in Texas,
has completely dispersed in consequence Of
the pursuit set on foot by the United States
forces. Whenever the forces crossed into
Mexico the precautionary measures insti-
tuted by this government were sufficient to
preserve people and railways from harm"
The statement in the telegram regarding
the safety of railroads is intended 10 dis
pose of the report that travelling in Mexico
is unsafe on account of the Cara outbreak.
The silver question appears to be in
statu quo pending the return Of Speaker

far as learned Holman has not determined
the date on which the caucus, requested by
Harter, shall meet, or whether the anti
silver men will be bound by any conclusion
reached in caucus as to the silver question
that may be Objectionable to Them so It is
probable the caucus will be no more than q
conference.

ciated Press, under date of February %,
states that General Enriquez was killed
by body of Guatemalan soldiers, together
with a number of companions, near
the city of Zacapa, Guatemala, near, the
Honduras coast. The cablegram states
that General Enriquez had been unani-
mously proclaimed Dictator Of the consti-
tutional party Of Guatemala, and had, in
consequence, incurred the active
hostility of President Barillas,
who alarmed the public by
announcing General Enriquez was at
the head of the insurrection directed
against the present government. Presi-
dent Barillas ordered General Enri-
! quez to present himself to the au-
tnorities of Zackpa. General Enriquez
proceeded at once toward that city,

party of friends. A company, numbering
one hundred soldiers, lying in ambush on
one road out of the city, fired upon
General Enriguez and others Of
/ his party, killing all of them.

killing Of the party to orders issued from
the capital and imputes the deed to the
/ Guatemalan government.

made or is about to make a deal in which
the Atchison, Northern Pacific and St.

combination referred to, with Chicago as q
pivotal point, will be very strong one,

sition of the Pennsylvania road and would
give it a through line extending from one

A Vanderbilt Lines Rnmnr.

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch.l
NEW YORK. Feb. 23.-Rumor has it that
Commodore Vandarbilt's dream has been
realized. 1t is said that the Vanderbilt IN
terests have secured control of the ST.
Paul system and that the grand alliance
new includes St. Paul, the Northwestern
and the Union Pacific, that is, through
line from New York to the Pacific at Port
land and San Francisco. If true, it is the
most important railroad deal in many
years. 1t is said that it will be formally
announced Wednesday. The story given
out ike Others of similar import that nave
been circulated of late years, had much to
commend it and was told with great cir
cumstanciality. Active efforts, it was as
serted. had been going on since Pisrpont
Morgan succeeded in converting the So
OOO, 900 floating debt of the Union Pacific
road into interest bearing certificates.
After that Drexel, Morgan & Co. had sue
ceeded in furtherance of the deal SO alleged

intimate relations with the Vanderbiits

hoped, in conclusion, that inasmuch as
Utah was SO rich and so populous. ami in a
sense so entirely independent, of all the
other states and territories of the country,
that this great boon of statehood would
not be denied to them.
Senator Carey here said: 1.-THE Faulk-
ner bill proposed TO put on Utah the bur-
dens of statehood without any of the adj
vantages of it, now 1 want to ask you if the
majority of the people in the territory
want that billg'
II cannot say" replied Mr.. Smith,
but" he continued 1.-THE people l repre-
sent want statehood, not Home Rule"
Senator Stewart asked if the Liberals
were opposed both to the statehood and the
Faulkner bill, to which Mr. Smith replied:
u cannot say. You have heard what they
have said and can draw your own deduc-
tions.n
Ihus closed the most interesting hearing
that has yet been given the Utah delega-
ton. The frank statement of MIR. Smith,
that he preferred territorial form of gov
eminent to Home Rule, and that he voiced
the sentiment of the Republican party in
saying this, shows the hypocritical preten-
slons of the Republican leaders, or at least
those whose views are reflected by MIR.
Bennett and Smith. Their information
was most astounding bit of intelligence
to the committee, and it has destroyed
whatever probability there may have been
OF securing favorable consideration for
their bill. Both houses of Congress are
UNALTERABLY OPPOSED TO STATEHOOD
although the sentiment in favor of the
Home Rule bill is very strong. There is
not a shadow of a doubt that the Home
Rule bill will pass the House long before
the close OF the present session. There is
every presumption, too, that majority of
the Senate committee will report it favor
ably to the Senate Notwithstanding the
TACT that Mr.. Platt, the chairman of the
committee, is at present bitterly antago-
pistic to it. The Senate committee is com
posed OF six Republicans and five Demo
Gratis. Two OF the Republicans, Carey, of
Wyoming, and Stewart, of Nevada, will
join the Democrats in majority report on
the bill. In addition to these Dubois,
Stanford, Teller, FELTON, and Warren will
vote for it when it comes before the Sen
ate. In short
THE PROSPECTS ARE BRIGHTER
than they have ever been at any previous
time. The several advocates of the bill
who have been in Washington, and who
have returned to Utah, have carried that
conviction with them, and have, no doubt,
freely expressed it to their friends.
Mr.. Frank Richards started west last
night and was followed tonight by his
brother, Mr.. G. G.. Richards.
