4 Murder Tor Spite.

New York, April Charles Janda,
20 years old, Bohemian tailor, shot
and instantly killey his sister law.
Mrs. Camilla Janda, to day, at her
home, and then attempted to kill him
self 10y putting bullet into his right
temple. Although the murderer and
would be suicide was alive when taken
to Bellevue hospital, a few minutes later
it was not thought that he had even a
remote chance for recovery. This was
correct, as he died tonight. So far as
could he learned, there was no possible
provocation for the murder of the wo-
man. and it was probably caused 10y
spite, which the murderer felt for his
brother, the husband of the woman lac
shot, there having been i'll feeling be
tween them.

The Mckinley tariff became law on
October Is, 1890, and the enactment of
it was followed by long list of reduc-
tious of wages IN the protected indus
tries. Several of these cuts were made
in November. and few were announced
on the day of the general election in
that month. \ majority of the changes
took place, however, in the following
January, February and March. The re-
cent increase of 10 per cent in the Wes-
tern Pennsylvania coke district may
serve to recall the fact that the long and
bloody strike of 10. 900 coke workers in
the same district, against a reduction of
10 per cent, began in February, 1891,
four months after the Mckinley tariff
became a law, and few weeks after
Speaker Reed, in public addresses, had
urged the same coke workers to olive
up to- the new tariff law schedules
The present tariff is now a little more
than seven months old.

Is view of the great rise in the price

tie, the chief OF the bureau of animal
industry, Dr. Salmon, has recommended
To the secretary of agriculture the ad-
mission of Mexican cattle into the Uni

calculated to insure rigid inspection of
all cattle admitted. 1t is hoped by this
means to check the tendency to exces-
sive prices to the consumer without in
juriously affecting the interests of the
beef producers. Upon DIR. Salmon :
recommendation Secretary Morton Is
sued an order modifying the regulations

sion Of Mexican cattle.

THE free scholarship bill of the state
college, SAYS the Harrisburg Patriot, has
been abandoned Had it become law
it would have taken 500, 900 annually
out of the public school fund. The Op~
position to the measure is so strong that
its advocates have decided that it cannot
pass this session. They will hold off for
two years and try the next Legislature.
The friends of the college have not yet
determined what they will do with the
other appropriation bills which they
have had introduced. The proposed cut
IN the school appropriation has intensi
lied the opposition to the state college
and the chances are that it will get very
little aid from the state in the next two
years.
