A COWADLY MURDER
Policeman Flynn Of Helena Murdered
by Burglars at the Northern
Pacific Depot.
He Was Knocked Down with a Club
and Then Shot Three Times by
the COwartlly villains.
The Murder the Most Cold. BlOOded
Ever Committed in the
State.

HELENA, April 1l.-ISpecial to Tia
TRIBUNE. Policeman John w. Flynn
was found dead at 5 o'clock this morn
ing in the waiting room Of the Northern
Pacific depot alongside of the
ticket office with all indications pointing
to the theory that he had surprised a
gang Of burglars who we're trying to
blow open the safe, and had been mur-
dered by them. The ticket Office of the
depot is on the side nearest the tracks
and occupies one corner OF large ger-
eral waiting room. To the left of it is
the ladies waiting room. Flynn entered
the rear of the depot by way of the
ladies' waiting ROOM This is known be-
cause his keys were found in the lock of
the rear door Of the ladies' waiting room.
and his gloves and club we're found or
the window sill where he evidently laiG
them on entering. On reaching the III
side OF the room some slight noise was
doubtless made by the burglars who had
heard the policeman enter and had sus-
pended work This noise attracted
Flynn's attention, tho theory is, and be
stepped from the ladies' waiting room
into the general waiting room to inves-
tigate. Even then no could not have
had any idea of the extent of the danger
that threatened him as he did not draw
his gun. There was no light in the de
pot and one of the men was probably
standing in one OF the darkest corners
near the ticket Office waiting for the IN
truder to pass him. Then with a blow
from a club or some instrument the po-
liceman was hit on the side of the head
and fell. Three shots struck him and
two missed, entering the floor The po
sltion of the wounds and the course OF
the bullets all prove that Flynn had
been knocked down and was lying part
ly on his face when shot. The bullet in
the head entered near the top and came
out near the mouth. Tine wound in the
chest was near the left shoulder, az d
also indicates that tho shot was fired by
some one stan ding over him. Examira-
ton shows that the wounds we're all
made with bullets Of different size, i'll
dicating that at least three men were
concerned in the actual murder, while
there must have been IA fourth who lay
in wait for the officer with club. Th e
coroner's jury found a verdict of death
from the hands of parties unknown.
The city council alta special meetiL =
tonight offered reward Of $1,000 for tie
arrest of the murderer or murderers of
Policeman Flynn.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. CASE.
The Lawyers still Pounding Away at the
Patient Jurymen.

WASHINGTON, April l1.-Colonel
Thompson resumed his speech against
Madeline Pollard when the circuit court
met today. He first commented on the
improbability Of formal proposal Of
marriage from Col. Breckenridge to
plaintiff in the fall of 1893, and declared
hers was the act of a woman who felt
that il she could not marry him she
could disgrace him. In vehement
manner he pictured what must have
been the agony Of the congressman with
the plaintiff following him around COM
pelling him to tell Mrs. Blackburn they
were to be married. "She was walking
arsenal" eaid the lawyer. Thompson
closed with an appeal to the jury to re-
turn verdict according to law and the
testimony. Ben Butterworth followed
for the defendant. During his speech
he was applauded and Judge Bradley
ordered the court room cleared of all
spec ctators.

CARLISLE, Pa, June 2.-The annual
burlesque entertainment by the freshmen

row, which almost assumed the proper
tions of a riot. While the performance
was in progress crowd of sophomores
entered the hall. They were supplied
with tin horns and other contrivances for
making noises, and set up din that COM
pletely drowned the voices of the per-

ragged that he hurled a beer bottle from
the stage into the audience, striking Mrs.

many other women in the audience were
panic stricken and began to scream, and
the freshmen and sophomores became in
volved in free fight. The police rushed
in at this juncture and dubbed right and
left until something like order was re-

in an unconscious condition, was revived
