Mckinley on Tariff Changes.

Every reduction,of the tariff will be
followed by a reduction of wages.
Every cut in the tariff rates win be fol-
lowed by a cut in the wage rates. The
proposed tariff legislation is an unerring
blow at labor. which will be instantly
felt in the hOmesot every operative in
the United States. The friends of pro-
lection should not now falter. The fight
is only begun. IftempOrarilyilost. it is
not 10 be given up. Courage was never
more needed and never more expected
by the people from their representatives
than now. Ii Is the demand of the
hour and the requirement Of the situa-
tion. The tinkerers of the tariff should
be thwarted. They should he opposed
at every step in their programme of de-
struction. Republicans and Democrats
who believe ia the protectivessystem, in
congress and out of congress. should
stand together IN resisting every effort

BOSTON. Feb. 3.-Walter Johnson, a
Swede thirty years OF age. living in
Gloucester. shot and killed Miss Carrie
/. Andrews and then himself in this
city today.
shortly before noon today the occu-
pants of the Warren building at Park
ST. were startled by hearing four shots
I'm rapid succession which seemed TO
come from the fourth floor OF the build
ing. Unon investigation il was found
that murder and suicide and attempt
To murder had been perpetrated in one
of the apartments on the fourth floor,
which is partially occupied by Miss
Clara Munger, Il teacher OF music.
The victim was Miss Carrie J.. An
drews OF Essex, who had come to this
city 10 take her music lesson. She
was found with a hole in her cheek and
another in her left temple, and close be
side her was the murderer, Walter John
son Of Gloucester, who, few minutes
before. had entered the room with Miss
Andrews and was going TO wait for her
until she had finished her lesson. In adj
dition 10 having shot himself twice with
the revolver Johnson had cut his wrist
with a razor.
JanitOr Muuroe. who was on the floor
OF the place at the time Of the tragedy,
on hearing the shots. ran TO the room,
which he found was locked from the
inside. He attempted to force the door
when a bullet came whizzing through
the panel of the door. grazing his shoul-
der and embedded itself ii the wall op-
posite the door
on an examination Of the murderer's
pockets a batch OF letters were found
which gave the cause Of the dreadful
tragedy. 1t was learned that Johnson
had been engaged to Miss Andrews for
the past two years against the better
judgment of the girls parents, who We're
Of the opinion that Johnson was not the
man who would make their daughter
happy They finally induced their
daughter 10 break the engagement.
Some of the letters were written during
the month of January, and all Of them
begged Johnson to keep away from Es-
sex. pleading with him 10 lead an up
right life and hoping that in the future
the engagement might be renewed. The
letters We're signed "Caddie Low"
Miss Andrews was about seventeen
years Of age.
1t is learned that after the breaking OF
the engagement between the two, John
son entered proceedings against Miss
Andrews for breach Of promise and il
was only yesterday afternoon that he
called on his lawyer a. n. Donohue q
Gloucester. and said that he was going
to shoot the girl. Mr.. DOnUnue attached
but little importance 10 the threat at the
time but after Johnson persisted in max
ing the threat he thought it would be a
matter of rrecaution TO advise Mr..
Charles H. Andrews Of Gloucester. an
uncle Of the girl. AIr. Andrews went at
once to the city marshal and repeated
what the lawyer had told him, and re-
auested that Johnson be locked up. The
city marshal refused to do this until evi-
dence OF malicious threats had been
given more than the remarks Of a client
10 his lawyer.
