The French Mafia's Vengeance.

1sHPEMING, Mich, Jan. 6.--The worst work of
vengeance perpetrated by the Malta is equalled
by the facts which came TO light last night in
connection with the death of ANIMAL Sherman,
overseer in Walton's lumber camp, near this
city. Sherman, who was about 80 years Old,
was found dead yesterday with a bullet hole in
his breast and a smoking revolver beside him.
Gazing stoicaliy at the dead man was French
man, named Antoine Murray, who had teen act
ing rs an assistant in the camp. He explained
that Sherman was sitting quietly by the stove
when he suddenly drew the revolver and shot
himself. This explanation was regarded with
suspicion. but the coroner's jury rendered a
verdict OF accidental death.
Yesterday, however, an investigation was set
afoot that led to sensational revelations
search OF the dead mans clothes disclosed An
Old and much wora envelope, inside of which
was scrawled in French:
If /. ANIMAL Sherman, come TO violent end
charge it 10 the work of the Paris Terrorists.
Ten years sgo violated the society's laws aud
have since been continually pursued by one of
its members. He overlook me in San Francisco
in 1856 and has followed me here. He is hound
ing ME TO death
Then followed brief description OF his pur-
suer. Comparison showed that it fitted Murray
exactly, and he was at once taken into custody.
Murray explained that in 1892 sherman failed to
perform certain task allotted TO him and
through this failure two members of the society
were guillotned. Since then sherman has been
under its ban and one Of its emissaries has been
on his trail He fled first TO London aud then to
South America. Then he spent year in Cali
iornia as Il salmon fisher. But his pursuer WAS
not to be ba fled. Sherman finally hid himself
in & lum her camp. where Murray found him
two months ago. Murray denied the shooting,
and in explanation OF the accusation that the
revolver with which the shooting was done be-
longed TO him. says that sherman had borrowed
it TO kill himself and thus end the dreaded
pursuit,
