FOUR SHOT DOWN.
QundrupIe Tragedy Due TO a Love
Affair.

OTTUMWA, Ia, Aug. s.-W. S. Jen-
kins night bagga geman for the Bur-
Hngton at the depot at Charlton. Ia,
today shot his sweetheart, Julia Murphy,
her sister Josie. their mother. Mrs.
ELIZA Murphy. and himself. Jenkins
and Josie are now dead, while the moth
er and younger sister are fatally wound
ed.
Jenkins had been devoted to Julia for
five years and she had received his at
tendons. Mrs. Murphy kept boarding
house and Jenkins boarded there. Becom-
ing more and more enamored each day
of Miss Murphy, he became more bold
in speaking out against the attentions OF
other men. until after a quarrel over the
matter, Mrs. Murphy requested Jenkins
to find another boarding place. This he
did and did not seem to feel at all hurt.
but kept calling at the MuTphys- No one
knows why he became particularly eN-
cited and jealous today, but ne went
over to the house in a bad mood he
had some words with Julia about the at
tentiOns of a man. He then drew pls-
toll and shot her. Jenkins then turned
TO the mother, who had stepped into the
room, and shot her twice without
word. He then stepped into hall where
the sister stood and shot her, killing her
instantly. He then blew out his own
brains. firing the pistol into his right
temple. Jenkins has always borne an
excellent reputation and the general be
lief is that he was insane. The coroner
will investigate tomorrow.

CONDITION OF THE CROPS.
4 Decline in Corn of Almost 20
PoiDts-Winter Wheat Good.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 1O.-The average
report of the statistician of the depart
ment of agriculture shows a decline in
corn of nearly 26 points since July l, the
average for the entire breadth being SCI.
against 90 for the month of July. The
condition in August, 1S93 was 81. The
great decline is due almost wholly to the
extensive and unprecedented-y severe
drought that set IN since the last report
and to the hot, dry winds that swept
over the states of Nebraska, Kansas,
Iowa and parts of the other western
states. In some localities the crop has
been injured beyond recovery, while in
others timely rains would go far toward
assuring fair yields. The averages for
the principal states are: Ohio, 70; Ken
lucky so; Indiana, IS; Illinois, IS; Iowa,
As: Missouri, 50; Kansas, IS; Nebraska, 80;
South Dakota. -.
The condition of spring wheat has fall
zen since last report 1.S points, being GIL,
against 6S.4 for the month of July. The
condition by states is as follows:
Wisconsin, 10: Minnesota, rs; Iowa, 50;
Kansas. 80; Nebraska, Il; South Dakota,
%; North Dakota, 70: Washington. SO;
Oregon. So The advices as to winter
wheat from correspondents and thrashers
indicate a good yield Of excellent quality.
The condition of oats has declined ID
points since date of last report, being
765, against III in July. The condition
for August 1898, was 1873. Barley is 69S,
against 76S last month. Rice. go, SUBJ
stantially the same as last month PO-
tatOes. S65 against 934 last month. To-
bacco. 100, against 81 last month.

tempted to hold another mass meeting in
violation of the proclamation issued yes
terday by Mayor Koch, in which he
forbade the holding of public gatherings
on the South Side. The people had been
made defiant by the incendiary speeches
at the mass meeting on Wednesday
evening, and when the small squad of
police that had been sent there early in
the evening tried to peaceably disperse
the crowds that collected on the side
walks. they resisted. Later squads of
from thirty to forty people came from
all directions and gathered on the tri-
angle. The small squad was powerless
and reinforcements were sent for. When
about 100 police, in charge of Chief of
Police Jansen, had arrived the mob
was charged.
Under command of Chief Jansen the
police drew their clubs and drove the
mob in all directions Those in the
crowd had no intention of leaving the
scene of distur banCe and, after march
ing up side streets for half a block.
returned armed with stones and threw
them at the officers. The mob finally
dispersed.

FORMALLY RECOGNIZED.
Government Approves the Course of
Minister Willis.

NEW YORK, Aug. "a World dis
patch from Washington says: The re-
public of Hawaii has been formally
recognized by the United States. through
the president and the secretary of state.
The provisional government proclaimed
in January. 1898. when the queen was de-
throned, was succeeded on July 4. little
more than month ago. by a republican
form of government On the day fol?
lowing Minister Willis extended recog-
milton, so far as it was within his power,
to the new republic. The action taken
by the minister was reported to the state
department in dispatches received on
July 80 which wre Immediately trans
mitted TO congress.
Minister Willis's action has been dis
cussed at several cabinet meetings, but
no decision was reached until today
when Secretary Gresham. under the direc-
ton of the president sent a formal note
TO the minister approving his course.
Although the text of Mr.. Gresham's let
ter has not been made pubic. it is under
stood that the president extends TO the
new republic the hearty good wishes of
the United States"

on ioosened rail were plainly visible
and the marks of the crowbar on the
cross ties were there so plain that no
lantern was needed to examine them.
wherever the crowbar had been inserted
and the rails lifted clear and the spikes
which had been pulled out, were lying
loose on the bridge.
Late tonight the body Of Andrew Hen
sen, farmer of Mcpherson county, Ne
braska, was identified by a watch found
lying in the midst Of a pile Of human
bones. All of the bodies or parts Of
those mentioned by name in the list Of
killed has been received.
The police have arrested colored man
named George Davis. who is supposed to
be connected with the wrecking. Shortly
after the wreck occurred he applied TO
a hackman to be driven up town. He
had been on the train. he said, and lost
his coat. He was seen near the place
where the wreck occurred, it is claimed
with crowbar. The police say they have
evidence sufficient to convict. His mo-
tive is not known.
LINCOLN, Neb.. Aug. 1.-THE remains
Of eleven bodies of persons who per-
ished in the terrible wreck on the Rock
Island were identified today. and there
is little reason TO believe that any more
can be identified. The report that \
X. EDDIE and NJ. Beaver were among the
victims has proven to be false. They
were safe in their homes at Pawnee City
The colored ex-convict. George Washing
ton Davis, who was arrested last even
ing on suspicion Of having caused the
wreck, neither denies nor confirms the
charge. He holds a bad record around
these parts and suspicion points very
strongly toward him. Should il prove
