Had His Whole Family Marked For

 ERIE. Pa, Dec. Edward lCaiy, & well known mechanic of this city, while suffering from morphine de- bauch, planned the murder of his en- tire family, and but for the opportune arrival of his wife, whose grief seemed to disarm him, he would have suc- .ceeded. Cady gave his son Walter a heavy dose of morphine and kept his horrid secret until his wife detected his crime. He sent 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 oldest son, lad of 10 years, but the latter ran out and escaped the deadly missile and called his mother.
 Baby Hazel was the next victim to be added to the list. but Mrs. Cady's distracted cries caused the murderer to pause long enough to enable her to snatch the child from the verge of the grave. Cady glared moment at his wife, and then seeming to relent, turned and fired d ball through his own disordered brain. Mrs. Cady is in a most pitiable condition, and 1t is feared she will lose her reason.

A DYNAMITE SCARE.
Londen Officials Discover an
 Internal Machine.
BROUGHT FROM AMERICA.
It Was Found In Room Near the Law Courts-The Owner Evades the Police and Makes Ris Escape-Many Ar
 rests Are Expected to Follow.

LONDON. Dec. 7.-ln connection with the arrest of a man at Hampstead q sheriff's officer searched room at 27 Chancery Lane belonging to man Of the name of Schneider, who it is re- ported has just arrived from the United States. When Schneider saw the of. ticer coming he decamped and the of ticer searched his room and among other things found was tin can en- closed in two wooded boxes. They were taken to the Bow street station and immersed in water. When exam ined by government experts they were found to contain A poundsof dynamite in cakes. The police Investigating the matter seem to be under the impression that they have discovered a clue to a dynamite conspiracy.
 It now appears that the dynamite was placed ill cistern of water in the courtyard of the police station where it whizzed and foamed over the side of the cistern. The police afterward dis patched the soaked dynamite to the explosive labratory of the. government at Honnslow in cab, where it was ex- amined by experts who declared that the can was filled with fuses and had everything complete for use and would have had terrible destructive effect had it exploded. The police are engaged in active search for the man in whose lodging, not far from the law courts. the explosive was discovered, and the impression is gaining ground that the police have really discovered. accident ally. a plot to cause adynamite outrage which may have had for it's object an explosion i'll the law courts. It is ru- mored that the police contemplate making large number of arrests i'll the near future.
 The following explanation of the dynamite scare has been made: The man Snyder, not Schneider, i'll whose apartments the explosive was fouud, was managing director of the Snyder Dynamite Projectile comeany with of fee in Chancery Lane. He was in ar- rears for rent and his landlord levied an execution upon him. Among the articles seized was trunk of explos- ives, many photographs of gun experi- ments and a prospectus of the com pany, including an article from the London Times printed five years ago which described Snyder's invention as likely to render the conditions of war fare appalling. It is supposed tho dynamite found i'll Snyder's effects was used by him as a business sample.
