ST. LoUIs, Aug. s.-fred Kane, a far
mer living just outside the cast limits Of
east Carondelet. ILL.,. was murdered last
night by his wife, Annie. and her para
mour George Center. who worked for
the murdered man. just before 10
o'clock several persons heard cries and
several pistol shots.
1t turn in the road, about 300 yards
from his home, they found Kane in
pool ot blood and evidence that a ter
rible struggle had occurred. Across a
corntield the struggle had been carried
on till the final blow with a 20. pound
blacksmith hammer had been dealt.
The entire side u the head as far
down as the cheek bone. including the
eye and part Of the nose. were carried
away The bullet wounds in themselves
were enough to kill the man.
The guilty pairs clothing we're found
hidden near the house. The woman and
her parsmour were caught. apparently
without fear Of detection.
Mrs. Kane and her paramour. George
Center. made confession. He stated
that man named George johnson had
met him and given him the pistol with
which he was compelled to shoot Kane.
Center then detailed practically the story
Of the murder already stated. johnson,
as far a. can be learned from the evi-
dence. is Mrs Kane. who was logged up
in pair of her husbands trousers, and
is said to have welded the hammer
which smashed in the head of the mur.
dered man. The steps OF the mur.
dered man. who is not more than ]. or
IL years old. says when the old man
went away from the house to go to Bung
town the mother and George went out
together and his mother had the ham.
mer and bundle.
Mrs. Kane stoutly denied all the
charges 0 criminal intimacy between
herself and Center until she learned
Center had owned up. Lynching ID

nominations 10 be made at this time, the com
mittee recommend that in all cases where the
district IL limited to one county. the regul
county convention make the nomination at the
same time IL nominates candidates for all other
county offices. In other cases. where the dis
trict IL composed of more than one county, let
the delegates to the state convention from the
counties comprising district meet at the time
and place of the state convention, and there
agree upon and make the nominations for same
being guided kby such Instructions. If any.
have been given by their respective county con

Marlbor6ugh's Gifts.

1t was characteristic Of Marlbor-
ough that from apparently small in
dications he possessed the power Of
divining the enemy's plans and was
thus enabled to forestall them. From
the experience Of the recent past he
toresaw with admirable clearness the
immediate future and was able, as it
We're, to map out coming events from
a study of the position at the mo-
ment. He could balance future prob
abilities with strange accuracy and
could fill III with living figures the
sketchy outline furnished by the spy.
Without this peculiar gift, one of
the instincts that mark the born gen
eral. no campaign can be directed
with success. To realize what is
going on beyond a range of hills or
any other natural barrier to human
vision and out of the reach of recon.
noitering parties is one Of the prob
lens which perpetually confront the
military commander. On the cor
rect solution of that problem de
pends greatly the success of all mil
tary operations. Life of Marlbor

THE TARIFF.
An Agreement Appears to

the Conferees.
Free Iron Ore and "A sliding Duty on Coal
The sugar Kefiners Win on
the Compromise.
THE TARIFF.

WASHINGTON, ID. c.. Aug. S.-An
agreement was reached on the tariff late
this afternoon. Tomorrow the republi-
can conferees will be called in. The
compromise, it is sIid. gives free iron
ore. The duty on coal Is put on slid
ing scale. making reduction Of five
cents year on each ton, with the recip-
rocity provision. The sugar refiners win
out on the compromise. while there is a
change Of rates in the lsenate bill. The
new schedule is quite satisfactory TO the
retiners. The duty is 40 per cent on
raw sugar. with differential OF one
fisth of cent. which. under the peculiar
wording of the bill, gives the trust all
the advantages Of senate rates. Presi
dent Cleveland has won partial victory
over the senate in getting free iron and
ultimately free coal and in having the
sugar tax maintained. An early adjour

steam Navigation.

Ii seems proper occasion for "lettln
the eagle scream" when We realize that
steam navigation had it's origin in Amer
lea. and that the first steps in nearly all
extensions and improvements have been
taken by the men OF the new world.
Robert Fulton made the first trip ever
undertaken by steam boat. in his ''Cler-
mont from New York to Albany. in
August 1907. The first sea voyage ever
made by steam vessel was when the
"Phenix' went from Hoboken to Phila-
delphia, in 1908. The first steamboat
for use on western rivers, was built at
Pittsburg, in 1911, and the first steam
ferry was established in 1913 between
New York and Brooklyn. The first
steamboat was placed on Lake Erie in
1918 and in 1920 the waters Of Lake
Micigan we're first agitated by the pad
die OF a steamer. The first vessel to
cross the Atlantic propelled by steam
was the Savannah" which started from
Liverpool for New York in the latter
part Of June 1919, though the voyage,
owing to a break in the machinery, was
finished under sail. In 1887, Capt. John
Erickson applied the screw propeller
successfully to steam vessels. In 1888
the English government desired to sub
st,tute steam for sailing vessels IN the
, mail service to America, and applied to
Samuel Cunard, merchant born in
Halifax. Nova Scotia. to start the enter
prise, which he did by sending out the
"Brittania" from Liverpool on July 4
ls49. She arrived at New York July Is
two weeks voyage. The trip is nov
made by steamers Of most lines in fiv'
days. In railroad building and equip
ment Americans have likewise been thu
leaders of the world. The proof is cas-.
by pointing to such system as the grea
Burlington Route, with its seven thous
AMI miles OF road. with luxurious fas
trains, reaching all principal points Il

No Danger Of a salt FapI line.

The amount of salt in the sea waters
of the globe. if extra, ted, would be greater
in mass than the land, SO far as it appears
above the surface. The seas cover 13 per
cent of tine earth's surface, estimated at
9,26O, 900 (German) square miles. The
percentage of chlornatrium in the sea is
she same at all depths. Assuming that
the average depth of the sea is a half
(German) mile, there are then 3,4OO, 900
cubic miles of sea water. A cubic mile 6
sea water contains on the average abou;
25 Kilograms of salt. The !, 400, 900 cubic
miles of sea water would therefore con-
tain 5000 cubic miles of distilled pure
salt.--Erom the German.

What Shall We Do with Our Money.

A forcible illustration of returning
prosperity is found in the circumstance
that the deposits in the savings banks
in Salt Lake are increasing at the
rate of one thousand dollars per day.
The question naturally suggests itself,
why do people put their money in saw
ings banks? Why don't they bring it
to us? The banks lock it up in steel
vaults and give a certificate and lit
tie book as evidence of the deposit.
We will lock it up in the eternal vaults
of nature and give a deed to lots
in popperton place. In the one case
you will gel interest, because the banks
are good: in the other case you will
get profits, because the land is bet
ter. There isn't a bank in America
that can take your money and afford
TO pay you in interest during the next
five years one-half as much as you
can make upon the same amount in
vested in popperton lots. We are not
going around, as FitZsimmons is, look
ing for trouble and challenging the
world; but we challenge contradiction
of this statement AS matter of fact,
if the banks were up to lacks, they
would invest the money in popperton
place just as fast as they receive it
on deposits; and inside of five years
their stock would be selling five hun
dred per cent above par. But banks
are so conservative and timid that up
to this time they have not seemed to
grasp this proposition.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1894-09-30

1t is a great record now being made

0O000O in mining properties in the Uni
ted States. The mill was erected for
the purpose of treating Cripple Creek
ores and was just fairly started when
swept away by fire
According to the story told by Mr..
Trent and corroborated last night bv
q. Lavignino, manager of the Rosebud
property, Mr. Trent was selected by
the mining company to represent its
interests in the settlement of the loss
and Fred NJ. Kline, of Pueblo, was du-
ly named by the insurance organiza-
tons. The committee of two. accord
ing to his statement, selected Norman
ID. Fraser, of a mining implement firm
of Chicago, to act as referee and third
member of the board of appraisers.
In support of the organization of the
board, as given above Trent and
Kline could not agree on the loss. and
Mr.. Fraser was summoned from Chi
cago. He arrived last Sunday and
yesterday signed a statement of losses
in which he agreed with Mr.. Trent
the total amount being placed at about
$50, 900.
Kline did not meet with the major
ity of the board and the final state
ment of loss was filed with the adjust
er of the insurance.
Mr.. Fraser and Mr.. Trent received
a notice from Hawkins & Williams
last evening. announcing that the pa
pers left with the adiusters earlier in
the day are not recognized as an award
in anywise binding, and repudiating
Mr.. Fraser as a third appraiser or
umpire. 1t is claimed in the communi-
cation that the appointment of Mr..
Fraser as the third appraiser has been
revoked.
The companies in which the Rosebud
mill was insured embrace the Sun, Of
London, the Prussian National, the
Atlas. of London, the Alliance, the
Scottish Union and National. the
Michigan Fire and Marine, the Lion
Fire Insurance company, of London.
the Lancashire, Providence Washing
ton, Home Marine, Royal Exchange
and Western Insurance company. The
list is represented in Denver by D. C.
Packard, but NO blame is attached to
Mr.. Packard, as the adjustment of
losses is attended to by specialists.
