A CRAZY FATHER

Attempts to Kill His Entire FamIIy-Hc

self
ERIE, Pa, Dec. 4-Edward Cady, a
we'll known mechanic OF this city, while
suffering from a morphine debauch
planne the murder Of his entire family
to-day, and but for the opportune arri-
val OF his wife, whose grief seemed to
disarm him, he would have succeeded.
Cady last evening gave his son Walter
q heavy dose OF morphine and kept
his horrid secret until his wife
detected his crime. Cady's excitement
and grief seemed to be those
Of frenzied man, and all night long he
tore through the house weeping Tor his
boy in terms expressing fear OF public
exposure. Early this morning he sue
ceeded in borrowing a revolver from an
unsuspecting neighbor. Then getting
his wife out OF tho house for a moment
began the revolving work Of numbering
his innocent children. When his baby
Hazel saw tho revolver she threatened
to tell her mamma, but desisted under
a threat. Cady first dispatched little
Bertha, who was too much engrossed
BY her school studies to observe her
fathers actions. He then sent q ball
through Walters brain as he lay on the
bed suffering from the poison he had
been given a few hours prior. Cady
turned to kill his son, but the latter ran
out, escaping the deadly missile, and
called his mother. Baby Hazel was tho
next victim to be added to the pile, but
Mrs. Cady's distracted cries caused the
father to pause long enough to
enable her to snatch the child
from tho verge OF the grave. Cady
glarcd moment at his wife and then
seeming to relent turned and fred q
ball through his own disordered brain.
The tragedy was the bloodiest and most
revolving in the criminal annals of this
city. Mrs. Cady, the unhappy wife, is
most pitiabie object, and it is feared
she will lose her reason. Cady was a
man of forty-two and had been married
eleven years.

The senate met promptly at noon,
and fifty.six senators responded to roll
call. The usual committees were ap-
pointed to notify the house and the
President. At 1855 the Presidents
message was received aud read by the
secretary. All present with few excep-
tions gave close attention when the
reading was begun. Senator Cameron
seemed at first moro interested in a
newspaper when the secretary began
his rather arduous task, but soon laid
it aside and afterwards listened intently
for short time. Senator Dolph gave
attention to his old fight OF bills for q
few moments but pricked up his ears as
the reading reached the Hawaiian para
graph.
Senator Gordon found opportunity to
prepare brief bill during the progress
Of the reading, while Senator Hoar was
apparently moro interested in q news
paper than in the first part OF the mes
sage. There was general changing
about in the seats of'the senators when
that portion of tho document dealing
with Hawaii was approached.
At the conclusion OF the reading tho
senate adjourned in respect to the mem-
ory OF the late Congressman ONeill.

"The practice OF nations in the sup
