Endemic OF Crazy Crime.

PITTsEURG, Pa. July 10.--A terri
bic tragedy occurred in Allegheny to-
night from which two persons are
dead and third will die. Mrs. Lena
Roesener. the wife Of tanner resid-
ing on Spring Hill, Allegheny, has
been in poor health for the past ten
years. Today, while her husband was
at work, she hung her three-year-old
daughter to the head OF a bedpost. She
then tied cloth around the throat Of
her seven-months-old baby, from the
effects of which it will die. After
committing these crimes she hung
herself by placing rope around the
hinge of q cupboard and then around
her neck and allowing herself to fall
to the floor. Fortunately, two other
children were away visiting relatives,
or they might have suffered a similar
fate. The cause is attributed to Ill
health.

WASHINGTON, July 12.-The follow
ing letter has been sent from the office
of the American Bimetalic League in
this city:
WASHINGTON, D. c., July S, 1895.
Hon. Charles S. Fairchild, Chairman
Committee on Sound Currency,
Reform Club, SO William Street,
New York.
Dear Sir: The existence OF the com
mittee on sound currency of which
you are chairman with existance al
the same time of the American Bime-
talic League, which l have the honor
to represent, evidences wide diversi-
ty of opinion on the money question.
Each organization is laboring to edu-
cate the people on different theories
of money, and each advocates differ
ent financial policy They cannot
both be right.
The deep interest manifested on this
subject throughout the United States
and the importance Of arriving at the
truth that the people in the coming
elections may act wisely has suggested
that candid discussion of the ques-
ton by representative men Of the two
organizations might conduct to 4 bet
ter understanding Of the truth and be
highly beneficial
With this view, the Bimetaic Lea
que respectfully invites the committee
on sound currency to g dicussion of
the money question on distinctive pro
positions to be argued upon and to be
carried on by questions and answers
l would suggest that not more than
five nor less than three on side be
selected to conduct the discussion to
be held at some time and place to be
agreed upon.
Should this suggestion meet your
approval, I would suggest an early
meeting to agree upon the propositions
to be discussed and the regulations un,
der which the discussion shall be con-
nected.
Veyr respectfully yours,
\. j. WARSEL.
