CHICAGO, Oct. %. Another crazy
crank has done his deadly work, and
Carter II. Harrison, five times mayor OF
Chicago, and one Of the best known
men in the West, lies dead in his home
on South Ashland boulevard. Three
bullets entered his body, two of them
making wounds sufficient to cause
death.
The murder was committed by Eugene
Patrick Prendergast, paper carrier,
who declared that Mayor Harrison had
promised to make him corporation
counsel and had not kept his word.
This was his only reason for committing
the crime.
The only other persons in the house at
the time besides Mr.. Harrison were his
son, William Preston Harrison, twenty
five years of age, and the servants.
Shortly before o'clock the door bell
rang. and when Mary Hansen, the do
nestle, opened the door she was con-
fronted by man about five feet five
inches, smooth shaven, his rather clean
cut features lit up by pair of dark
eyes.
rs Mr.. Harrison IMP" asked the man
In quiet, pleasant voice.
"Yes, sir" responded the girl, as she
threw the door wider open to permit his
entrance.
81 would like to see him, please" said
the man, as he walked toward the back
end of the hall. Mr.. Harrison was in
the dining room, which opens into the
rear end of the hall. Hearing the man
ask for him. he rose, and, stepping into
the hall, walked toward Prendergast,
who. by the time he caught sight of Mr..
Harrison, had advanced about ten feet
from the doorway. Without saying a
word, Prendergast
DREW HIS REVOLVER
and commenced to fire. He pulled the
trigger but three times, and every bullet
hit the mark. One ball shattered Mr..
Harrison's left hand, another passed
into the lower right side of the abdo-
men. making wound that would have
been mortal within a few days; the
third bullet entered the chest slightly
above the heart. This bullet was the
Immediate cause of death. AS soon as
Prendergast began to fire Mr.. Harrison
turned and walked rapidly toward the
dining room. He walked through the
door. across the dining room, and passed
into buffers pantry opening off the
room, where, weakened by loss OF blood.
he fell to the floor.
Prendergost did not follow up his vic
tim or make any attempt to ascertain
how deadly his aim had been. He
placed his revolver in his pocket with
the same deliberation that had marked
all of his actions, and started toward
the door. Just as he was passing
through the doorway William Preston
Harrison, the mayors son, came tear
Ing down the stairs from the upper por-
ton of the house just as Mr.. Harrlson's
coachman ran into the rear end of the
hall. The cries of Mary Hansen direct

WEST SUPERIOR, Oct. 2s.-The tele-
gram sent from here last night was ID
error in coupling the name of ex-Gov.
Merriam with that of Elliott and Math-
er, who have been sued by Gen. Mullen
in connection with the West Duluth
Water company sale and the Everett,
Wash, land deal. Ex-Gov. Merriam is
president of the Superior Water COM
pany of which Mather was general
manager, and that led to the error of
coupling Merriam's name with the suit,
when, as matter Of fact, no other de-
PENDANTS are named IN the complaint
except the two specified.
The telegram being received in the
usual course of newsgathering was
given publicity, and the GLOBE cheer
fully accords the correction. In let
ter to the editor ext Gov. Merriam says:
have just bad my attention called to
telegram from West Superior, in
which some very remarkable state
ments are made with regard to myself
and others. AS l am not, and never
have been interested in the project
noted in the telegram, am very much
at loss to know upon what authority
the statement is published. have not
there any reason why he should COM
mence any action against me. Very
truly yours, w. r. MERRIAM.
