NOT YET FOUND.
Fred Herrick Has Been Missing Since
the First Of July.
Search Since Then Has Revealed Nethiru for
Clue to Discovery.

Three months have elapsed since Fred
Herrick left Augusta and as yet hi. people
know not where he is. He went from here
to Portland, and whether or not he got be-
yond there no one seems to know. 1t is
understood that he purchased ticket there
for Boston, via the steamer Trsmont, but
the purser's list did not show the name on
the list of passengers, nor lid any of the
beat hands notice man answering his de-
sc Upton.
Ever since be left here, and it had be-
come krown that he had not begun work
again for the Boston firm where he was
employed, search for him has been going
on by the detectives of Boston. II seems
very strange what has become of Mr. Her
rick, as he was regarded a. an honest, up
right and very respectable young man.
His relatives in this city know of
no reason why he should not have turned
up for work at the appointed tiue. Why
should he have purchased ticket for pas
sage on the fremont for Boston, if he did
not intend to 60? Had he been robbed it
would have been discovered.
1t is not known that any love affair has
been the cause of this strange circumstance.
Mr.. Herrick was about &c years Of age, and
was a medium siz,d man,. He held fine
position 10 Boston With Sartwell, Heinbold
& Humphrey, large saddlery firm, as
salesman, and in an interview Mr.. II, inbold
spoke of him in the highest of terms. Mr..
Herrick was quite largely known in
Augusta, and it is trusted that he may again
turn up safely. +

DENVER, Colo, June 81 AS the dele
cations to the seventh annual conven-
ton of the National Republican
league, which meets to-day in the
Broadway theater arrive the en-
thusiasm grows greater and there is
every reason to believe the confidence

can gatherings this year will accom-
pany this one. There are proba bly,
1000 delegates in the city and 1900 or
more visitors here as camp followers.
1t is expected l, 900 more delegates will
be on hand to-day.
There has been a lot of talk by the
silver state delegates and there is no
doubt there is concerted movement
led by Dubois and Goodwin, to put
the convention on record, if possible,
as favoring the free coinage of silver
at a ratio of 16 to /. There are a few
Nebraska and Kansas delegates who
will join them, and also some from
Missouri
The executive committee of the
league was in session last night until
near IL o'clock. Reports of officers
and other routine business were dis
cussed. The principal topic had ref
erence to the finances of the league
and how to meet the expenses. Secre-
tary Humphrey has done considerable
travelling during the last fourteen
months and the expenses of the present
convention are heavy. 1t will take
81, 600 to meet the obligations now
outs landing.

PEOPLE WEEP AND CRY VENGEANCE
Fifty Thousand People on the Streets

Fifty Thousand People on the Streets
of Lyons After the Murder.
. LYONS. June 26.-The assassin pre-
scented himself at the door of the pres
ident's carriage holding rose in his
hand. This is the reason why the
police allowed him to approach. The
president of the department of Rhone,
as soon as the murder was known,
went to the theater and advised the
public to remain calm. The theater
was at once emptied. All the illuIn-
nations were extinguished. Men and
women in the streets wept and shouts
of vengeance against the Italians were
heard from the crowd.
More than $4,000 people went to-
wards the Italian consulate, around
which the police, warned in time, had
massed. The crowd demanded that
the Italian flag and coat of arms
should be removed Another part of
the crowd went to the Cafe Casati,
kept by an Italian, and in spite of the
presence of the troops sacked the
place and burnt all it's contents
The wound received by NJ Carnot
was in the upper liver, which was
pierced through and through. From
the first the physicians believed that
the wounded man was lost. He was
transported on a mattress and his
clothing was cut off him. In order to
facilitate the bleeding the breast was
opened to length of twenty cent?
meters Because of the presidents
weakness chloroform was not admins
tered, and he cried out several times:
Mon Dieu, Est-ce que celia ne finira
pas? Mon Dieu. CONNIE je SQUIRE"
my God. Will this never end? Ny
God, how l am suffering.) He died at
1913.

of ministers, returned to Paris at
once. The council is convened to
meet at 10 o'clock this morning.
The death of President Carnot will
cause profound sensation through
out the entire country. Paris is quiet,
but tom orrow there will certainly be
great excitement Carnot was the
type of an honest bourgeois, and in
his unmerited and stupid death he will
be profoundly saluted by all his ad-
versaries He did not merit such an end.
He may have committed faults against
parliamentary discipline, but he never
committed any against political
honesty During his presidency he
had to struggle against serious diff
culties, and he always knew how to
act with moral dignity.
