FOUR STUDENTS LOST.
Went for Sail In Boston Harbor and
Their Catboat Overturned.

Four Harvard students met death in q
squall in Boston (Mass.) harbor off City
Point. They were Edwin Stanton Bach, OF
New York John Farnum Browne, OF Phila-
delphia William Campbell Trusdell, ofNew-
ark, n. j.: Franklin Whitall, OF Philadel-
phia.
The fact was not known until two days
after, when their submerged boat and two
bodies we're found. The latest report was
that two more bodies had heen seen floating
off the east side OF Thompson's Island.
Two coats were found near the island. In
one were letters addressed to Browne, and
in the other letters addressed to Trusdell.
Boatkeeper Henry T.. Hutchins, at City
Point, said he lot his catboat Crescent to
four young men Sunday. Two hours later
he noticed them in the path OF squall. He
saw them no more, but supposed they had
landed somewhere. he looked for his boat
but found nothing to indicate that 1t had
been wrecked.
This story led to misgivings, and, the let
ters indicating that the receivers were Har-
yarI students, inquiry was made at Cam
bridge.
Mrs. Wiley, with whom the young men
boarded, said they had told her that they
were going for q sail. She had not heard
from them since.
Boatman Hutchins then sent out @ search.
ing party. The upturned boat was found
near the spot where she was last seen. Tho
bodies OF Browne and Bach were found
clinging to the mast. Each was locked IN
the arms Of tho other, and they had to ba
lifted from the water together. They had
partially disrobed.
Trusdell was third-year man in the law
school. He was an exceptionally bright
student, and was graduated from Princeton
in 1899.
Browne was graduated from Haverford
College. near Philadelphia, last year, and
was senior ut Harvard.
Bach was in the junior class. John S.
Bach, his elder brother, has come to Boston
and says his family Is prostrated by the sad
news.
Whitall was graduate from Harvard Col
lece last June, and entered the 5entor class
last fnll to get the degree Of A B. Browne
and Whitall were room-mates.

Times With q Jackknife.

A double tragedy, murder and suicide
startled waverley, N. Y. Alanson Hyatt was
the murderer and his wife the victim of his
rnurderous assault. Whisky and consequent
domestic troubles were the causes. Whea
in liquor Hyatt was ugly and abusive to his
wife. She bore with him for years, but re-
Gently was forced to leave him on account of
his i'll treatment.
He went few days agot, the little house
In which she lived with her aged mother and
three unmarried daughters and finding a
neighbor there, assaulted him savagely, seri-
ously injurIng him. For this he was ar

Jury. His wife was one of the witnesses
against him. Since then she has feared for
her life and has kept her doors locked.
Hyatt told friend that he would kill
himself within an hour. He then went to
his wlfe's house and crauled through win
dow into the cellar. Entering the kitchen
where she was at work he stabbed her four
times in the back and once In the chest with
large jackknife, sinking the long blade to
It's hilt at every stroke. He then thrust the
blade through his own neck, opening both
jugular veins and died almost instantly. Tle
wife lived two hours.
The mother of Mrs. Hyatt, elghty-four
years old, attempted to assist her daughter
and received an ugly slash across the hand.
She gave the alarm and neighbors rushed to
her aid. They were horrihed at the sight
OF the man and wife writhing in their own
blood, that covered the floor and was spat-
tered over the walls.

train, The Presidential party was then es-
corted to the Mary Washington house, where
an informal luncheon was given to President
Cleveland, followed by reception on the
old porch of the mansion.
The procession, including various patri-
otic societies and benevolent orders, COM
panies of the State Militia, the Governors
staff, and representative ladies on horse
back, was then formed and marched to the
monument, where grand stand to accom-
modate the 400 guests had been erected.
On Washington avenue In front OF tne

Ceremonies commenced with prayer
by the Rev. James P. Smith, followed
bY brief address by Mayor Rowe. Gov
ernor O'Ferrall followed with an 1mras-

er, OF $4,000. On the Hotel Regent
the loss was estimated at S700, 900, without
counting the personal effects of the guests
which were burned. The site cost 800, 900,
and the building was erected at an expense
of $3.50, 1000. The insurance was $4,000 It
was furnished in costly manner.
A meeting OF the trustees was held at DR..
Talmage's house at 5 o'clock p. m. After
a prolonged session it was decided to make
an attempt to rebuild. In that event, pro-
viding the new Tabernacle is free from
debt, DR.. Talmage promised TO be the
pastor. He yielded to their wishes not 70
postpone his trip aroundthe world. A round
sum was subscribed on the spot for the new
structure A committee was appointed to
find place for the temporary accommodation
of the Tabernacle congregation. Within
four hours after the fire offers OF dozen
halls and churches gratis had been made.
A trustee said to reporter: ave almost
feel as If we had load off our minds.
There seems every prospect OF our buil1-
ing q new Tabernacle. Before it was O
case of helping sinking ship and the pub
lie was slow to assist. Now we start IN
anew. with no debts or erbarrassments
whatever. We believe the public will gen
erously respond and help build church for
the greatest of living preachers. We have
raised 81, 900, 900 in the year past, and we
should be able to raise 5000, 600 to build an
other church now. That will be sufficient.
In years time new Tabernacle may be
erected"
This is the third time that DR.. Talmage's
Tabernacle has been burned down. All the
fires have been on Sundays, and the last two
have been on the thirteenth day OF the
month. The first and second Tabernacles
were on Schermerhorn street, and were
burned down on Sunday. December %, 1872,
and Sunday, October 13, 1889, respectively.
The trustees of the church say that this
fire must have been Of incendiary origin.
There were no electric light wires near
where the fire was first found, and the only
fire In the church was in the basement.

A brief address by Lawrence Washington,
lineal descendant Of the mother of the first
President, closed the programme at the
monument.
At the conclusion OF the ceremonies at the
monument, the President, Mr.. Bissell, Sena-

AN AWFUL CRIME.
A Family Waylaid and Its Members
Butchered.

"Gus" Meeks his wife and two children
we're murdered near Browning, Mo-, and
another child, aged seven, was so badly in
jured that it was not expected she would
recover.
There are a number OF cases pending In
tho criminal courts against William F. and
George Taylor. William Is banker In
Browning and his BROTHER Is farmer. They
are charged with forgery, larceny and arson.
William Taylor, "Gus" Meeks and others
were jointly indicted. Meeks pleaded guilty,
and was sentenced at the last term OF court
10 the penitentiary.
Governor Stone pardoned him about O
month ago for the purpose of having him
used as witness against the Taylor broth
ers.
It is reported that the Taylors had ar.
ranged with Meeks to give him team OF
horses and wagon so that he could leave
the county and not be present at the time Oh
their trial.
Meekss mother says that her son received
a letter from the Taylors at Browning, telling
him to be in readiness 10 90 away at 10
o'clock, and that Meeks and the children
waited for Taylor until midnight, when two
men, whom Meeks told her were George and
"Bill" Taylor, came to their home In q
wagon. The man and his family got into
the wagon and started for Browning.
Tho only statement regarding the crime
was from the seven-year-old girl, who was
suffering greatly at the time she told her
story. It seems that when the Meeks family
and the persons accompanying them reached
a point on the road near the school house In
Lynn County, small distance from Brown
ing, they were attacked by two armed men
who were lying IN wait at the roadside.
Their first victim was Meeks. His wife
Jumped from the wagon In terror at the
sound fthe shot, but she also was murdered.
The fends then seized large stones and beat
the lives out of the two children and left
the third one for dead.
The assassins hauled the bodies OF their
victims nearly two miles in the wagon to the
Taylor farm, burYing them under hay.
