DETAILS OF THE JERlCO
SPRINGS POISONING CASE.
WHOLESALE MURDER Was PLANNED
Two Members of the Comstock Family
and Neighbor Woman Named Wal
lace Die In Great Agony-Ey-
erything Edible and Drinka-
able About the House
Poisoned

NEVADA, Mo-, Oct 16-The first
authentic news OF the poisoning OF
the Comstock family, near Jerico
Springs, was brought here yesterday
by Herman Ready, close neighbor of
the Inflated family. Jerico Springs is
just over the Vernon county line in
Cedar county, and about twenty-five
miles southeast of this city. 1t is
miles away from a railroad or tele-
graph line, and therefore not readily
accessible.
Mr.. Ready speaking of the poison
ing said: Monday evening old man
Irwin Comstock and his family at sup
per partook of cold cabbage, bread,
coffee and milk, and soon after eating
every one of them became violently
sick. Those who sat at the table were
Mr.. COmstock, his wife and little son
Willie, and a neighbor, Mrs. Wallace.
One of the neighbors happened to call
after supper and found them all pros
trated. Some of them in spasms. DR..
Brasure was hastily summoned, and
with two other doctors that he called
in, worked with the stricken family
all night
cat ) o'clock l. Ext morning the old
lady Wallace died in great agony and
on Wednesday morning Mr.. Comstock
died in a spasm Mrs. Comstock was
not cead when | eft, but was having
spasms Willie had gotten better,
and it v as thought he would get well.
Mrs Comstock will die if she is not
already dead. J neighbor, Mrs. Nc
Crazy, who came over Tuesday morn
ing to help nurse the sick. was herself
poisoned by eating a biscuit and
drinking a cup of coffee, which she
prepared for herself from the family
provisions She was reported dying
Thursdav.afternoon.
Dr. Brasure Analysed the cabbage,
water, provisi rs and everything edi.
bic and drinkable about the place and
SAID he found strychnine in all. The
entire community is Mortified, as it is
plain the oisUn was used with the in
tent TO destroy the whole family.
Nevertheless there is not breath OF
susp clun aga nst auyone.
Mr.. tomstOck is well-known here,
having formerly resided in Nevada
Last December he took out license to
marry the Widow Ewing and last
snring Lhev moved to her farm two
miles northwest OF Jerico Springs.
Mrs Comstock was the divorced wife
OF Thug Ewing, who still resides in
the neg bDrhood where the poisoning
occurred. She married Ewing four
or five Years ago after the death of
her Ii NJ hu band, l. rk Brosure, who
was burner TO death at Eldorado
Springs She mas grown son by her
first husband. who also lives in the
vicinity of Jerico Springs
So far as can be learned the best of
good feel ng existed between the fam
lily and Thug Ewing, and suspicion
has NOT attached to him or to the
grown son The whole affair is
shrouded IN mystery.

The NEW TARIFF BILL,
Democrats Hope to Report 1t within =
Month and Pass 1t Before Christmas.


WASHINGTON, Oct 1.-THE Demo-
cratic members of the ways and
means committee hope to have the tar
if bill reported within a month and
to have it pass the house before the
holidays
Great secrecy has been enioined
upon all members who have the prep
aration of the tariff bill, because when
once it is stated that certain reduc.
ton has been arranged for, represent
atives are sent to Washington toargue
before the committee on the proposed
changes. Considerable interest has
been manifested in the iron producing
states as to what was to be done with
iron ore, and it looks very much as if
iron ore would follow coal into the
free list.
Another ore that will probably be
restored to the free list is lead. This
lead ore is largely imported fom
Mexico and is used for smelling.
Mr.. Bryan of Nebraska, who is a
member of the committee on ways
and means, advocates an income tax
to be made part of the tariff bill.
If it is not incorporated he will
present it to the house in some form.
He will propose tax on all incomes
above 81, 500 at the rate per cent;
per cent on $1,000; per cent on So.
0 o; 6 per cent on SOS, 100, and 10 per
cent on $4,000. His plan is to have
:he poStmasters in towns of 10, 0OC
population or less collect the income
taxes and in the large cities special
income tax collector to be appointed

VEST HAS A SOLUTION.
The Missouri Senator Offers q Compro4
mise Silver Measure In the Senate.

mise silver Measure In the senate.
WASHINGTON, Oct 14-When the
senate met to-day Mr.. Vest of Mis-
souri, gave notice of an amendment in
the nature of a substitute for the re-
peal bill After repeating the pur-
chasing clauses of the Sherman act it
authorizes the issuing of coin GER
tifcates for the uncoined bullion con-
sisting of seignorage on the silver
heretofore purchased 1t provides Tor
the coinage of American silver that
may be deposited by its owners at
the ratio of $4,000, 900 a month up
to the limit of SIS 100000 This
coinage is TO be fairly proportioned
among the silver producing states and
territories. Holders of standard silver
dollars may have them exchanged for
certificates Authority is given the
secretary of the treasury to refuse
payment in gold ION any intended
obligation OF the United States, when
he is satisfied that the gold is applied
for expectation. A joint committee
OF the two houses is 10 examine into
the financial and monetary condition
of the government and the people of
the United States The ten per cent
tax on state bank circulation is 10 be
removed.
At l:l3 o'clock Mr.. voorhees, made
the usual motion that the senate pro-
coed to the consideration of the bill TO
repeal the purchase clause OF the
Sherman act. This was done and Mr..
Stewart of Nevada took the floor. At
ter expressing his qualification that
the silver senator's had not pleased
the British masters of the people of
the country, Mr.. Stewart resumed his
speech. which he had left off at
o'clock this morning.
The first suggestion of the lack of
quorum came from Mr. Pettigrew of
South Dakota at lis. Eighty-five
names were called by the clerk, to
which there were fifty-four responses,
eleven more than a quorum. Mr..
Stewart expressed his displeasure at
the annoyance which the delay caused
him, and then went on with his
speech.

THE SENATE RULES.
Mr.. Lodge Speaks in Favor of His Pro-
posed Amendment.

posed Amendment.
WASHINGTON, Oct. I'm the senate
this afternoon Mr.. Lodge of Massa-
chuSetts spoke in advocacy of his
proposed amendment to the rules,
providing that no senator should read
printed or written speech and, that
senator present aud not voting,
should be counted as present for
the purpose of making quorum.
He said the present condition in
the senate was an absolute trav-
esty on every rule of parliamentary
procedure. The senate to-day was in
a deadlock, the laughing stock of the
country, because of its absolute i'm
potency and the whole thing should
be abandoned or else the senate should
go to work in the proper and only in
telligent fashion and amend its rules
so that the majority coald exercise the
power it ought to.
In regard to a cloture rule Mr.. Vest
said if the action of minority in re-
sisting the votes of ma ority had no
other defense in American history,
the defeat of the force bill
would consecrate it to a large
extent with the American peo-
pie, Every intelligent man knows
that under the existing circumstances
it was impossible to consider the
question of cloture He had been one
of the eight Democrat senators utter
ly opposing unconditional repeal of
the purchasing clause of the Sher-
man act who had renamed in this
chamber at the risk of life itself for
thirty-four hours to furnish a quorum
to those who believed in unconditional
repeal He did it deliberately asking
no thanks for having done it. lie
honestly believed that the senate
could never arrive at solution of the
question that was harassing it and
the country until all the partie:
should be satisfied as he was that nc
unconditional repeal could be had in
the senate.

Topeka, Kan, Oct. 1.-THE women
of Kansas, who are making the
campaign for the right to vote at all
elections, are not working together in
peace, love and unity. Dissension
and jealousy have arisen, and there is
a prospect of division or party lines
The trouble began with Mrs Laura
M. Johns and Mrs Mary E. Lease,
but it soon spread to the rank and
file, and now all are at daggers
drawn, and the cause of the fair sex
is IN immediate danger of collapse,
complete and irretrievable.
Several months ago Mrs. Lease de-
clared that she would not address any
meeting under the auspices of the
Equal Suffrage association, of which
Mrs. Johns is president, claiming that
Mrs. Johns used her name for the sole
purpose OF drawing a crowd so that
she Mrs. Johns might get a little
glory out of it. Mrs. Johns advertised
Mrs Lease for the Kansas City, Kan,
meeting. Mrs. Lease did not appear
whereupon Mrs Johns addressed her
letter expressing her so row and
saying Mrs Lease ought to have sent
telegram or letter of explanation
at least.
October Mrs. Lease wrote to Mrs
Johns that the latter knew very well
that she had notified the Equal
Suffrage association that she would
not speak at its meetings, Then she
administered a rebuke as follows:
And you have the courage to carry out your
duplicity Oy expressing surprise and dismay
at my nOn-arrivaL anu amazed TO find a
woman already resOrting to the corrupt and
diSreputlble methods of male politicians thus
depr vim US of our stron; ar ument for the
ballot in the hands Of women. viz. that
women will purify politics | have served no.
tice on the Equal Suffrage association of Kan
sas twice publicly and now personally to you
that you must not use the name OF Mary E.
Lease to draw your audience without authority
from me
You offer me S25 to attend and speak at the
Holton meeting, My dear sister what dc you
mean: Is 1t possible that yOI have women in
your work who are mercenary enough to
charge or take money for suffra speeches
working for themselves? | have never
yet accepted a cent for a suffrage
speech My expenses have never been
paid and l have often paid the ex
penses Of Others as at our Enterprise meeting
Following this, Mrs. Lease invited
Mrs. Johns and her Republic. ends
into the POpulist party, referring tc
the equal suffrage association as "a
little One-horse suffrage cart ngaged
in futile effort to make people be-
lieve we are non-partisan."
Mrs. Lease thanked Mrs. Johns fol-
admitting that she (Mrs. Lease was
responsible for woman suffrage IN the
Populist's platform and claimed in adj
dition that she was responsible for it:
being put in the Republican platform
as the action of the Populists forced
the Republicans to take a like
stand, "When your non-partisar
horse is tagged out" shr closed
land your cart becomes uncomforta
bic, stop at the station of 'politica
repentance and as our car sweeps by
we will take you on board and con
tinue our journey to the land of ma
tional prosperity where injury to on
shall be the concern Of all"
The letter closed with: Love anC
best wishes to Brother Johns"

THE FIFTH RACE IN DOUBT
Time Allowance May Give t he valkyrle
Race After All.

Race Alter All.
New YORK, Oct 14.-The fifth of
the great yachting races was the
closest of them all and the result
cannot be known until the feet re-
turns to the city. The Vigilant fin
ished ahead but there is a time allow
ance to be taken into account
The course for to-day was from
Sandy Hook light ship, fifteen miles
to windward and return. The start
was a one gun or flying start accord
ing to the English system and, as the
wind was just what Lord Dunraven
had prayed for, everything possible
was certainly in the English vessels
favor.
Last night an extra ton of lead bal
last was placed in the hold OF the Val
kyrie so as to allow of increased
spread of sail This reduced her time
allowance fifteen seconds.
At $40 o'clock the Valkyrie was
fully 200 yards ahead, but half an
hour later the Vigilant seemed to be
closing up There was bad haze at
the time and it was almost impossible
to distinguish the racers
At 2:39 the Valkyrie had turned the
stakeboat and three minutes and
twenty seconds later the Vigilant did
the same
At o'clock the Vigilant began
gaining on her rival and the gap of
nearly mile was slowly closed amid
intense excitement
At $3.50 o'clock the Vigilant passed
the Valkyrie and slowly but surely
forged ahead.
The Vigilants elapsed time is 3
hours, % minutes and A seconds: the
Valkyrie's hours, &c minutes and 81
seconds.

gave his name as James Burns was
brought into the city Jail last night
with his throat cut He was given
medical assistance at once and told

tured by them, hot plates being held
to his feet while he danced as best he
could and other indescribabIe tor
ments being inflicted on him, includ.
