TRAGEDY At bethlehem

STRUGGLE WITH A MURDERER

bethlehem, Pa, June "A double
tragedy was enacted In Salcsburg, n
suburb of South Bethlehem, this morn
ing. Annoyed by his ncighbor afford
Ing his wife protection "A week ago,
when he beat her, Jacob Lucky way
laid John Mullock and shot lhim dead.
Lucky then attempted suicide twice
and finally hanged himself to a tree
within ten feet OF Mullock'S dead body
The murder was cOld-blooded and
premcditated one. Both men were en-
ployed at the Bethlehem Iron works,
and last night Lucky attempted to
quarrel with Mullock, but did not sue
coed. This morning Lucky stationed
himself before Mullocks door, partly
hiding behind the tree on which he
later hanged himself.
AS Mullock and his 1,3-year-old son
left the house to go to work, Lucky
sprang out from behind the tree. The
men clinched. Mullock's boy pounded
Lucky on the head with stones and the
next moment Lucky drew a revolver
ana emptied five chambers in Mullock's
body, killing him instantly. Lucky fired
shot at the fieeting boy, but missed
him.

Efforts at Snicide.

Lucky then walked back to his home
reloaded the revolver and tried to shoot
his wife and himself. The cartridges,
however, did not explode. Then he
drained a phial of bi-chloride of mer-
curry. The poison failed to kill him
quickly enough, SO he ran to the scene
of the murder and securing a clothes
line, hanged himself. His wife and son
saw him take his life, but dared not in
terfere. Both men were about 45 years
of age. Lucky leaves n widow and two
children, and Mullock leaves widow
and three children.
The scene of the terrible tragedy is a
long stony land, a mile out of town, and
in a sparsely inhabited locality.
The murderer and suicide was hard
drinker, and when under the influence
OF liquor he beat his wife and children
shamefully.
Mullock was quiet, hard-working
man. Both had been in this country
only six years.

Every effort is being made by officials
in the interior of China to conceal the
truth with respect to the loss of Port AZ
thur. On huge bulletin-board outside
the Viceroy's residence at Nanking was
posted on November 90 notice declaring
that the Japanese had been defeated with
10000 slain and that the war was about to
end. Reports from Peking state that the
Formosa customs are about to be hypothe-
Gated as security for the new British loan.
This is interpreted as device TO prevent
the annexation Of the island by Ja;an.
Numerous placards have been posted in
Peking announcing that the japanese do
not intend to interfere with the business
of the place or any of the peaceable in-
habtants; that they expect to be there
shortly and the people are not to be afraid
Warning is given that these placards are
not to be pulled down under penalty of
heavy punishment. Whether authentic or
not these placards have profoundly i'm
pressed the Chinese officials and no order
for their removal has been issued.

Now l am going to say one thing

these appointments being made by the
Governor of State. They should be
made by the Mayor of the city. And such
privileges should extend to the appoint

often knows nothing about the persons he
appoints, and he must take the word Of
others for their standing and worth.
"On the other hand, the Mayor of a city

them and knows what they are good for.
So I think the Mayor is the proper au-
thority to make these appointments. I

tions with the Chinese court
1t is now established beyond dispute
that the ncessant Tong IIak instructions
are not due to popular discomfort, but
have been directly instigated by officials in
the Korean capital with the purpose o {
thwarting the projects of ths Japanese
representatives and preventing the extern
sion of japanese influence. Count Inouye
is satisfied that the policy of reinstating
Tai Won-Kun and investing him with the
chief political power was serious error.
The ability of the Kings father is of a
high order, and if his pledges had been
faithfully fulfilled he could have done
more than any other mao toward securing
his country's freedom from external con-
troll and opening for it new career of
independence. But the documents dis
covered at Phyong Yang (Ping Yang
prove that his protestations were false
throughout and that he has no wish 10
throw off the Chinese yoke.
Count Inouye has sought to establish
nearer relations with the throne, signify
ing his inclination to look upon its occu-
could be assured that the King would ac-
lively exert himself and assume the polit-
ical control which rightfully belongs to
his station.
The results OF this new departure are
said to be thus far satisfactory. No power
could endow the King with high intellec-
tual capacity. That must not be hoped
for. But it appears that when not under
the influence and oppressive surveillance
of the nearest members of his family he
exhibits an earnest desire to partici . 10
in public affairs and instruction in whole
some principles of government. Since The
intercourse between the King and Count
lnouye began to take this confidential
turn it is noticed that the Tong Hak out
breaks have been suspended, but no jap
anese official ventures at this early date
to express TO the convention that the final
remedy has been found. 1t is, however.
thought that the condition of affairs is
substantially improved and TIE outlook
brighter than at any lime since the expul-
sion of the Chinese.
The Government, newly constituted and
charged with the duty of conducting af-
fairs, enters upon its labors with no little
anxiety. Several members have been
threatened with assassination If thew un-
dertake seriously to carry out the pro-
posed measures for reform. An attempt
to murder the Home Minister on Decem-
Der 13 was defeated only by the vigilance
of Japanese employees on the police force.
This official. whose name is PAX in Korea
and Baku in Japan, was one of the COM
panions of Kim Ok-Kyun, the Korean ex-
lie who was killed in Shanghai some
months ago. Baku is an avowed advo-

Conservative party. The English at
taches in the Korean custom-houses have
realized at last that China's dominion is at
an end, and have accepted offers of en-
ployment by the Government of Korea.

Burns takes his pace-no; l mean Nose
Burns has resigned and Dan Gunst is
appointed. No; that's not right either.
Let's see what the message says: Colonel
Dan Burns has resigned his Office as Police
Commissioner and Governor Markham has
appointed Nose Gunst to succeed him."
10 such bewildered fashion aid the resi-
dents of San Francisco receive the news
teleeraphed from Sacramento of the
change made In the Police Commission
1t created widespread wonderment-uni-
versal comment. Men stood around in
the Hobbies of the hotels discussing the
situation and wondering muchly of the
why and wherefore of this most unlocked
for step.
The gallant colonel was associated with
the Police Commission ever since the
d ca III of Major Hammond two years ago.
| Burns always took great interest in the
| commission, was a never-failing attendant t
at its meetings. and being an important
factor in political circles it was naturally
supposed that he would hold on for life.
In the Investigations, more or less sensa-
tioual, that were held before the commits
sion during the first two years Dan Burns
took prominent part. The long and ex-
haustive examination into the alleged
blackmaiIing eccentricities of Sergeant
Whitman, held during the hot nights of
May, 1893, in the delightfully."- airy and
attar-of-roses-scented quarters of the old
City Hall, had not the effect of whitening
one single hair of Burns golden locks.
Similarly when the much-dread ed AK
| fell upon The devoted heads OF few
policemen who had been too long in the
service for their country's good. in the
early spring months OF 1s94-the Commits
sioners meanwhile having found otner and
more spacious quarters-Dan Burns was
! again to the fore. He aided and abetted in
the whole proceedings.
| Consequently 1t came as huge surprise
| to all when word came that Dan Burns
had paid hurried visit to Sacramento for
| the purpose of rendering his resignation.
| Burns had not even taken the preliminary
step of informing his fellows Comm is
sioners of his project. President Robert
j. Tobn. at present and for some time
since more or less of an invalid, was never
made the confidant of his retired coad-
| tutor in the good work. William Alvord,
who with Tobin has held the position ever
since the Legislature inaugurated Police
Commission sixteen years ago, knew moth
ing at all about it until the fact was
