Halfwittcd Young Man Hacks His Mother
AMI Sister to Pieces.

Minneapolis, June Mrs. Martha M.
Elias and her daughter Annie were
found today weltering in their own
blood in the rooms over a drug store on
Nicollet avenue. AT first it was thought
the old lady had shot the girl as she
slept and then turned the revolver on
herself blowing the top of her head off.
That was borne out by the fact. that
Mrs. Elias mind had been affected by
the violent death of her husband II
years ago.
More careful examination by the au-
thorities, however, shows beyond ques-
tion that both women We're murdered.
1t is the belief of the officials that the
deed was committed by Lorraine d.
Elias, son of the murdered woman
Elias was mentally unbalanced and was
for a time confined in an asylum, but
was released May l as harmless. His
grip, containing money and clothing
marked with his name, was found in
his room.
A clean-cut bullet hole through the
glass of the front window showed that
one shot went wild. AT the morgue it
was discovered that the victims had
been hacked and bruised with some in
strument like hatchet, and the wounds
were sufficient, in the case of the girl at
least to have produced death.
The revolver was not clutched tightly
in the old lady's hand, as it would have
been had she shot herself but appeared
to have been thrust into the hand.

VALUE OF OUR METAL PRODUCTS
Output OF Silver Increased, but Its Value
Was Much Less.

New York. June 1.-According to the
Engineering and Mining Journal, the
total value of the mineral and metal
production of tlte United States in 1893
and 1894 was: 1898. $6l5, SAC SOC: 1894. $685.
227, ,902; a decline of about $62, ,573, ,904. or
8 per cent. This great falling off was,
however, due far more to lower prices
than lessened quantity of the product
Thus the value of the coal production
declined last year Sl3,7S3.S2S, or 7 per
cent. while in quantity it fell Off only
6,220.970 short tons, or 3is per cent This
small decline in the volume of the coal
produced is substantially a measure Of
the whole mineral output of the country.
The copper output Increased per cent,
from S27, ,255,7SS pounds in 1893 to 353,-
504,3l4 pounds in 1894. though in value it
declined no less than s1,639, 500, or Az
per cent.
The production of gold increased from
$35, 1854 900 in 1893 to s39, 76l 205 in 1894,
but the commercial value of the silver
production declined from $47.311.450 in
1893 to $31 ,403, ,531 in 1894, fail of s15.-
907, 929, or "a per cent. This was partly
due to reduced production, but the price
also declined from 1872 cents per ounce
in 1898 to So cents in 1894. Other mineral
industrials have made a highly salts
factory record.

Public Debt, Less Cash in the Treasury,
Foots Up S912,363,292.

Washington, June 1.-The public debt
statement issued by the treasury de-
partment shows the debt of the United
States yesterday, less cash in the treas
ury, to have been 1912, 363,292 This does
not take into account $573, 1885, 743 in GER
tificates and treasury notes outstanding,
against which there is no equal amount
of cash in the treasury The debt May
81 is therefore $5,9S6,611 less than April
80.
The cash in the treasury is classified
as follows: Gold, $147, ,690,977; silver,
s511, ,5S2 $50; paper, 1921, ,716, 4O6; bonds,
disbursing officers balances, etc, $16,-
4S3,720 against which there are demand
liabilities amounting to $612 103, 654 leav-
ing a cash balance in the treasury of
$1S5,370 100.

ernment during the month of May

Terre Haute. Ind. June 2-Before go
Ing to jail to serve out the sentence i'm
posed by Judge Woods, e. v. Debs is
sued an official circular to the members
of the order. from which the following
excerpts are taken:
The cruel wrong against our great
and beloved order, perpetrated by Will
liam A. Woods, United States circuit
judge, has been approved by the United
States supreme court. Our order Is
still the undaunted friend of the toiling
masses. and our battle cry now, as ever,
is the emancipation of labor from deg
radating, starving and enslaving condi-
tions We have not lost faith in the
| ultimate triumph of truth over perjury,
| Of justice over wrong, however exalted
may be the stations OF those who perpe-
| trate outrages. Brothers Of the Amer
lean Railway Union, even in defeat our
rewards are grand beyond expectation
True 1t is that the sons of british
| force and darkness, who have drenched
the earth with blood, chuckle over their
victory. They point to the blacklisted
heroes of the American Railway Union,
| idle and poor. and count upon their sur
| render. Their hope is that our order
| Will disband, that persecution, poverty
and prison Will do the work. In this
supreme juncture 1 call upon the mem-
bers of the American Railway Union to
stand by their order. In Gods own
good time we will make the despots go
to prison, where now we suffer a monu-
| mental wrong"

DEFICIT AT THE END OF THE YEAR
Is Likely TO BE S11. 900, Much Less
Than Expected.

Washington, June 2.-Treasury off,
cials are now confident that the close of
the fiscal year, month hence, will
show a deficit of not more than $44, ,000,-
900, which is at least s5,000,000 less than
was predicted four weeks ago and 3d.
900, 600 or 81 100000 less than the present
figures.
1t is shown that the pensions pay
ments during June will be at least $25,
900, 900 less than for May, and payments
on account of interest will also be re-
duced 81, 100000. With an increase of
the liquor, tobacco and oleomargarlne
licenses, which must be paid before Ju-
ly l, and material reductions in pension
and interest payments, it is expected
that the next month will show a small
surplus, with the deficit further reduced
to at least s44,000,000.
The month of July, however, is likely
to see the deficit increased by at least
SIC, 900 900, as that months interest pay.
ments will aggregate about $7,000000
Disbursements in every branch of tn,
| government are usually much heavier
| in July than in any other month, s.,
unless the receipts are greatly increas
| ed, the deficit August / next will no
| likely fall short of $55,000,000 for the L
months.

TWO TIE SAME DAY
More Crime Comm tied in San
Francisco and Minneapolis.
BOTH WERE MOST DIABOLlCAL
The San Francisco Tragedy Bears Some
Resemblance to Durant's
Crimes.

San Francisco, June Another dia-
bolical crime, bearing some resemblance
to the horrible tragedies of Emanuel
church. was unearthed this afternoon
by the discovery that Miss Nellie Har-
rington, aged 35, who occupied an up
per fiat at 1,O17 Ellis street, had been
outraged and murdered in her bedroom,
the door locked, and her clothing
and the furniture of the apartment then
set on fire. All the drawers and boxes
IN the room were open and had been
ransacked. Several articles of jewelry
and her purse had been stolen.
Several dodgers occupied rooms in the
nat, but none saw strangers about or
heard any unusual sounds. Attention
was first attracted by the smoke issuing
from Miss Harrington's rooms. When
her door was broken in, the bedding,
piled in the center of the room, was
found to be on fire, and beneath the
smoldering clothes was the blood
stained body of Miss Harrington. The
lower part Of her body was badly
burned, but the face had escaped the
flames. Knife wounds were found all
over the unfortunate womans body and
on her face.
The theory of the police is that while
thief was in the room Miss Harrington
entered. The man then murdered and
assaulted her, and after looting the
room escaped, locking the door and car
rying off the key.
The police are looking for State Sen
ator Buck of Solano county, that he
may explain his connection with the
murdered woman. A photograph of
Buck was found in Miss Harrington S
room, and the occupants of the house
identify it as that of the only man who
called to see Miss Harrington.

Rochester, N. Y, June 1.-The com
mittee having charge of the construc-
ton of the monument which is to be
erected in this city in honor of the MEM
ory of the late Frederick Douglas is
today examining the bids submitted by
the contractors. The design specifies
that there shall be a statue of Douglas
eight feet in height, of the best bronze,
to stand upon a pedestal of granite.
This is the first instance in which
there has been general public move
ment for the erection of monument to
a colored man, and liberal contributions
have already been made for the purpose
Douglas made his home at Rochester
in ante-bellum days, and has always
been regarded by the people of thi.
city as a ellow-townsman.
