Son OF the Proprietor Of the Merchant .
Hotel Kills Man.
ST. PAUL. June 25-The murder of J.
II. Clapp. salesman for W. S. Dennis g.
Co., by Enie Allen, in quarrel over a
woman, is the most sensational affair
which has occurred in the northwest for
some time, on account of the prominence
of the principals. Young Allen is the
son of Colonel Allen. proprietor of the
Merchants hotel, has acted as the clerk
of that institution for years, and is prob
ably as well and favorably known TO the
better class OF the travelling public as any
man in the country. The crime is rem
dered more sensational by the mystery
which surrounds tie relations of the par
ties in the affair ard the motive for its
commission.
From stories told by witnesses it ap-
pears that the young woman, n Miss Lule
Lydc, ard Mr.. Alien had been living to-
gethcr Cor the past few months in rooms
opposite the Metropolitan hotel as Mr..
and Mrs. Moore" Shortly before mid

ran across the street where Allen was
standing and Clapp followed. Witnesses
say no alteration or scufiie occurred. AL
len without further provocation drew IL
knife and slashed Clapp across the throat
SO seriously that lie blcd to death in
twenty minutes. There are hints that there
are deeper and more sensational motives
for the crime than are yet made public.

The lcnicncy shown the cowardly

mockery of American justice, is hav-
ing its effect in all parts of the
world. The attempt on the life
of the Italian prime minister

president OF the French republic yes
terday, are but instances of what is
bound to follow where justice is
trilled with rs il has been in the
Prcndergast case. The great horde
of cranks the world over can only be
held in check by the prompt punish
mcnt. without mercy, of all who are
guilty of reckless and diabolical
attempt on the life of men high in

out. The laws are made to protect
the citizen. not the assassin. Let us
have more justice and less of such
law as has been applied in the Prem

Grand Jury May Investigate.

OTTuMwA, Iowa, Jan. 15.--Discovery
that the remains of Frank Johnson,
who was hanged in this city by mad
dened residents for criminal assault
on four-year-old child, was not in the
grave has created sensation. The
man was Swede, and though he was
without doubt guilty the residents Of
that nationality insisted that he be
given a decent burial. The undertak-
ers, Harmed & Sullivan, claimed that
they had buried him Dec. 81, but the
board of health learned that several
bodies had been shipped by the Arm out
of the city without the proper permit
from the board of health. They started
an investigation into the matter which
resulted in the arrest of Sullivan for VI
olating the city OF dinance In regard to
the issuance of permits. He was sub
sequently released. In some manner
they became suspicious that one corpse,
which had been shipped to Iowa City
under the name of Styx, was none 9TH
er than the body of Johnson, and caused
the grave of Johnson to be opened. A
box was found filled with straw. Harmed
aud Sullivan claim that they buried
Johnson properly and that some one
'snatched" the body. great many
give credence to their story, but they
will not explain who Styx was, uor any
thing abont him. The certificate ac-
companying the remains of Styx was
signed by physician who disclaims all
knowledge of person of such name.
1t is evident that the public Is not yet
In possession OF the truth, and when

as it probably will at the next sitting,
some prominent persons are likely 10

WANT DUTY ON LEAD MAINTAINED.


Representatives Prepare an Epistie TOT
congressman to Read.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.--A meeting OF
prominent representatives of the lead
Industry will be held in Washington this
week, the principal object of which is
to make an organized protest against
the provisions of the Wilson bill which
relate. to the lead products. Every
member of the house will receive let
ter signed by $500 lead men doing
business throughout the country. The
epistle states that under misapprehen-
sion of the facts the ways and means
committee in preparing the Wilson
bill has treated all those interested in
lead mining in Missouri and other lead
producing states west. of. the Missis-
sIssippi in an unfair and inconsistent
manner. 1t asserts that the passage OF
the bill will ruin the lead industry,
which has been built up during the last
thirty years under the idea that under
no circumstances would the difference
between the cost of labor In this coun
try and Europe and Mexico be unrecog-
nized in tariff legislation. The con
gressmen are then told in detail the
hardships that will ensue and are asked
in conclusion to change the lead ore
provisions in the Wilson. bill so thai
instead of a IS per cent. ad valoren
duty on lead ores, Dresses and anti
monial lead there shall be one of X
cents per pound on all lead in ore or II
any other combination, so that the
silver ore from Mexico and elsewher'
shall be stricken from the free schedul
and duty of three-fourths of a cen
per pound imposed upon the lead cor
tanned in all such ore.
