Senator Turpie returned from Washing
ton Wednesday. He is in the best of health
and spirits and talked to a SENTINEL repor-
ter on various interesting topics in mis- usual
candid and cordial manner. Referring to
the Indiana Offices and office-seekers he
said:
The time since the adjournment of
congress has been largely occupied ia pre-
pairing and presenting candidates. for the
various appointments. | believe that in
cases pending the work has been fully
done up to the point OF decision and
awaits now only the action OF the appoint
ing power. In cases not Immediately
pending much work has also been done,
but as vacancies do not occur in these for
many months, future attention will be
given them.
This work has been cheeTfully done
by all members of the democratic delegs-
ton in congress from Indiana. IL has in
yolyed the examination of much cores
pondence, mass of papers on file, numer-
Gus personal interviews and careful con-
sideratiOn. We have served ALL but il is
impossible that all can be appointed. We
have tried TO give every applicant a fair
chance in the canvass for appointments.
Some of the places will not be filled until
the next session-Or until the beginning
OF the next year-but when the roll is
completed no section of the state will be
found neglected"
OF the financial policy of Secretary Car
Isle Mr. Turpie said:
"Durlng the recess, since the adjourn
ment, public attention has been called to
an event at least a. of much importance as
the distribution of the federal patronage
| This Is the struggle between the secre-
taTy OF the treasury and certain New York
City financial syndicates as 30 who should
control the fiscal policy of the govern
ment. In this contest Mr.. Carlisle has
had the warm sympathy and support Of
/ the democracy OF the " est and South. In
my judgment the good will and conf
| dence OF the masses of the people is quite
| as valuable in sustaining the public credit
as the advice and counsel of bankers
and brokers in Wall-st. Time will make
/ this vet clearer and the secretary will be
/ Rbundantly justified In his course"
! There has been a good deal of talk re-
/ Gently among Indiana republicans of an
4 extra session of congress. They say that
on the platform by which the present adj
/ ministrstion was elected it will be almost
/ a sacred duty OF congress TO repeal or
/ strongly amend the Mckinley bill, and
/ that il the admin stration is true to it's
1 trust an extra session will he called tor
this specific purpose. Mr.. Turpie said he
had not heard any talk recently of an
extra session, nor did he see the need OF

able record OF 20:26. Bridgeport was left
at so aud the good time, y 80. was
made TO Fairfeld-twenty-6v miles. One
third OF the entire distance had now been
traversed and the fact that great record
would be established was apparent.

Thomas Mellen of the Harlem branch of
the Y. NJ. G. A., who took the letter from
G. c. Hollander on his arrival at 2:3220
at the Harlem bridge and started to the
club house, the terminus of the race,

EngIand's Credit.

FALL RIVER, Mass, May 3O.-This city
Is in a state OF intense excitement tonight,
due TO the discovery of an atrocious
murder, riYaling in many respects
those OF Mr.. and Mrs. Borden.

student in the high school and q decen-
dant of one of the oldest fam
lilies in this section of New
England. She was last seen
alive when her father, accompanied by

into the kitchen and there saw his MUIR
dered sister lying in a pool of blood.

moned and an investigation made. A
bloody AK was found in a woOdpile near
the back fence. The examination OF
the body disclosed horrible conditions.

OF the stove, where she had evidently
dragged herself through poole of her
blood. Her right leg was drawn

John Tarpis, Hsughyille's ex-street
commissioner, was shot and almost In
stantly killed in John Shaw saloon in
that suburb at 1 o'clock Thursday morn
ing.
At the hour mentioned Tarpie. in COM
pany with Charles Eigleberg. the town
treasurer. Edward Moore. a member Of
the board OF trustees. and Edward Shaw,
brother of the proprietor of the saloon,
went to the place to have talk with
John Hughes, the bartender, who was
sleeping there. The men went to . rear
door and were surprised to find it stand
ing open and Hughes calmly sleeping in
chair opposite the door. They walked
into the place, Eigleberg first, Moore next
and Tarpie third.
A man, his face hidden by q mask,
was discovered behind the bar go
ing through the money drawer. The
men thinking at first that it
might be Shaw. made no ef-
fort to stop him. They discovered
their mistake, however. as soon as they
secured a good view of the man who
started toward the door carrying the
money drawer in one hand and revolver
in the other.
"what are you doing here?" exclaimed
EiRleberg.
ooh, nothing" returned the burglar,
still going toward the door.
When he reached il Tarpie was Just en-
terlng all unconscious of the great dan
ger that threatened him. The burg
lag never asked him to get out
OF the way but opened
fra He could not have been three feet
from Tarpie when he fred, and the
shot struck the latter in the breast.
With a scream of pain the injured man
fell to the floor. while the burglar ran out
aud escaped during the excitement.
Tarpie was carried into the saloon and
made as comfortable as possible, but
be realized that he was fatally
injured and requested those who
gathered about him to send for a priest
Thew did so but before the Reverned
Father arrived on the scene Tarpie
was dead. His friends laid the remains
out to the best OF their ability
and some one was sent to inform his wife
ofthe shooting.
A SENTINEL reporter arrived on the
scene shortly afterward and when the
saloon was reached everything was
found 10 be in great confusion. In one
corner OF the room lay the body OF Tar
pie. his great, wide-stsring eyes looking
up into the faces Of those who gath
