eide together. One morning just at day
light Koch assembled the steps to the ele-
waited railway station near where Miss
Rossi lodged. He passed through the gate
to the end of the platform and took his
stand about dozen feet from the win
dow, at which a figure was seen to appear.
Then he put the pistol to his temple and
fired His aim was true, and he fell dead
At the same instant a pistol sounded in
the room above, and when her landlady
entered she found Emily Rossi dead. A
small hole was in her breast, and a pistol
lay on the floor beside her. The pistols
were of the same make and had been
bought by Koch When he walked home
w it'll Emily the evening before, he carried
them in a paper candy box and alluded to
the contents in conversation with a friend
as those precious candies" The funerals
of the two suicides took place at the same
time Their bodies were cremated.

to be outdone by either, tied himself to an
enormous rocket and blew himself into Is

The double suicide in New York few
days ago by those two deluded feather

the kind as has recently occurred. julius

Fournier was II years old. They went to
Central park together Some time III the
afternoon, and the next morning their
bodies were found in the rumble. She had
promised TO let him kill her, perhaps coax
ed him to die with her, and she faced his
pistol with barred breast. They were n
love and planned the crimes to make as
big "a sensation as possible. They lett
many silly farewell letters, some of which
are given below
There was one in French addressed to
the authorities of the city II read
We die in perfect health and with clear
minds Wedie for love. Weare happy. IL IS
our wish that no autOpscs be made upon us
and ii is our final request that no knlIe DC

NEW STATE MAP.
Richard Ryse Has just Issued n Very
Fine One.

Richard Ryse of this city has just re-
ceived the first edition of his new map
Of Indiana. 1t is, perhaps, the most COM
plete and perfect map ever made Of the
state and gives each township and sec
ton, shows plats of every town Of over
a thousand inhabitants and gives the
names of railroad divisions in full Mr..
Ryse has been working. with the assist
ance of several draughtsmen and every
county surveyor in the state, since jan
uary upon this map.
In preparing it drawings We're made Of
each county in the state and sent 10 the
respective county surveyors. They were
corrected by them, returned and photo
graphed. These photographs were in turn
sent to the county surveyors and again
corrected. These finally corrected proofs
were then photographed and printed. Each
county is marked by a distinctive color,
and statistical tables and charts for using
the map are printed on its border
The map was especially designed for
use in the public schools, but will prove
of great value to all persons who need an
absolutely perfect and complete map Of
the state. Every town having ten houses
is shown and the exact section can be
located by number. Superintendent OF
Public instruction Worries examined the
map and pronounced il the best state map
he had ever seen. and has recommended
that it be placed in every school in the
state A sample is on exhibition in the
window Of the Bowen-Merrill company.

WASHINGTON. May Ex-senator Cor
mans speech was the feature Of the
DAVIS session of the senate Mr.. German
and Mr.. Briee have been credited by the
opposition with the joint authorship Of
the compromise amendments which con-
soidated the democratic side. and Mr..
German especially has been subjected
TO much criticism both in and out of the
senate. His speech today. replying in a
measure TO the attacks that had been
made upon him. explaining the necessity
of compromise and defining the theory
upon which the modified bill, now before
the senate. was constructed. attracted in
tense interest. It was regarded as an eX-
eeedingly able exposition Of the position
of the conservatives.
Mr.. Gorman's speech furnished texts for
the republicans for the remainder Of the
day His statement that a majority of
the senate would support the bill was
put to the test by Mr.. Teller. whose pur-
pose was to smoke out" any latent
opposition on the democratic side. Mr..
Germans statement was justified by the
vote. however. as the Colorado senator
motion to lay the tariff bill on the table
was met by an unbroken democratic
front. Both Senator Hill of New York
and Senator Irby of South Carolina,
whose positions have been the subject
of gossip from time to time, voted with
their democratic associates, as did the
three pspulfsts. including Mr.. PETER.
The rates fixed today were as follows:
Railway bars, T rails. 7-2O of a cent per
pound; black taggers, between ten and
twenty wire guage. 40 of a cent; be
tween twenty and twenty-five wire
guage, $40: thinner than twenty-five.
10 cent; iron and steel plates coated
with zinc or other metals. except tin or
terne plates, Il of a cent more than
rates in preceding paragraph; sheet iron
or steel. polished, IL cents per pound.
WASHINGTON, May 23.-The on
slaught on the civil service commission
which was started yesterday was re-
sumed today. and several times during
the day the question was disposed of
only to break out a moment later in an
other place. The appropriation for COM
missioners and clerks for the civil serv-
ice bureau having been stricken out yes
terday. the next paragraph, providing
for the transfer to the civil service COM

was stricken from the bill today. The
house refused to strike out. however. the

HEART DISEASE.
A Prevalent Disease Hard to Cure.

Dr. s. B. Hartman, the renowned lee
turer and writer on medicine, received
the following letter from Deucher, Ohio:
April 2, 1894.
As am a user of Pe-ru-na 1 want to
say few words in regard to it. I had
a pain in my heart and my left side and
shoulder, and for five years 1 could not
lie on my left side. I doctored with the
best physicians in my county that 1 could
hear of and spent $500 with them without
receiving any benefit took patent medi-
cines all the time. but they did me no
good. l got so bad that for two years I
was not able to use my left arm and had
to hire my work done. 1 spent over $50
for hired girls. Finally, / saw Pe-ru-rla
advertised and got a bottle, and before
had taken it all 1 could lie and sleep on
my left side. Before 1 had taken two
bottles / could help do the work, and
shortly afterwards l let my hired girl go.

MIR. GORsIAN's SPEECH.
He Defends the Compromise Tariff
Bill in Plain Words

The announcement that Senator Cor
man would speak today upon the tariff
had the effect of bringing out larger
attendance than usual
Senators Jones and Platt discussed the
'T'' rail amendment for a time. after
which Senator German, pale from his
recent illness, took the floor. He spoke
slowly and in a low tone of voice. Mr..
German rehearsed the difficulties that
had confronted the democratic party in
dealing with the question of tariff re-
form. The difficulty was not all in op-
position, but in internal dissension as to
how the fruits of victory should be Sc
cured. Withal, he claims that action by
the present congress had not been IN
usually delayed. It was the last of Sep
TENDER before the president signed the
Mckinley bill and this is only May. The
Wilson bill had been reported to the
house before its effect upon existing in
dustries could be properly studied; an
Imperfect measure that not only failed to
meet the treasury demands. but actually
Increased the dencit created by the re-
