MAN AND WIFE MURDERED.
The Bodies Saturated with OIL and
CAt Afra

MARIETTA, O., Jan. 9, 1894 Henry Saner,
a respectable German, and his wife were
murdered last night in their home near
Pinchtown, four miles north, and their son
is missing. Their barn was burned and the
house had been set on fire, but neighbors
arrived in time to extinguish the blaze Mr..
and Mrs Saner lay full length on the kitchen
floor Their clothing was burned from their
bodies, having been saturated with OIL The
neighbors put out the blaze and saved the
bodies and house from destruction. The
floor was covered with blood, which ebbed
from eight bullet holes in the left side of Mrs.
Saner's head and from wound caused by a
heavy blow in the back of Mr.. Saner's head.
Near Saner lay the barrels of the gun. They
were bent as if from heavy blows. A visit
to the fire at the barn revealed nothing ex-
cept burnt carcases of horses, cows and other
stock. Many suppose the boy was burned in
the barn, but there is nothing to warrant
this, save his absence. The Coroner soon
arrived and Saner's pocketbook containing
1926 was found 1t is believed the entire
family was murdered and that robbery was
the object.

Bv Gable to the United Press.

BRUSSELS JAM 9, 1S94-A man named
Andres was one of the crowd that gathered
about the Northern Railroad station in this
city on December 2, when the Duke of SAKE

arrested and was today tried and con-
victed. The prisoner was present during
part of the hearing, but in some manner
effected his escape from the courtroom
before it was time to sentence him. His
absence made difference in his sentenc-
ing, however, and he was condemned to one
wears Imprisonment.

Anarchist Raids.
By Gable to the United Press.

ROME, Jan. A. 1S94.-The general raid on
Anarchist haunts made yesterday morning
by the police of this city and the large pro-
vincial towns was productive of very good
results. Altogether about ten thousand
copies of manifestoes couched in the usual
wild language of the Anarchists were seized.
The authorities also got possession of a list
referring to a quantity of firearms, which,
search as they might the police could not
find. The search, however, has not been
abandoned, and every effort is being made
to discover the place in which these firearms
are secreted
Other lists were found giving complete
record of the recent bomb outrages in Rome,
and specifying intended oftrages in the
future. The localities in which the outrages
we're to have been perpetrated are specified
with much particularity.

PARIS, Jan. 8, 1S94.-The Figaro says that
the residences of the jurors who will serve
on the trial tomorrow of Auguste Valiant
the Anarchist who threw the bomb in the
Chamber of Deputies on December 9, will be
specially guarded during the trial in order

The papers published number of letters
written by Anarchists and addressed to the
jury and to Judge Gaze, President of the
Paris Assize Court before which Valiant
will be tried. The letters are comparatively
moderate in tone.
The Petite Republique says that the post
office authorities have issued orders for the
seizure of all letters addressed to sixty-eight
suspected Anarchists. These suspects are
Frenchmen, Germans, Italians and Rus
