Washington, D. c., May 25.-The state

from Mr.. DENLY, United States minister

Winthrop. assistant superintendent of
Laurel Hill cemetery, was arrested this
morning in connection with the mysteri'
Gus death of Mrs. Jennie Matthews last
Saturday. Mrs. Matthews died very SUD
denly while decorating the grave Of her
child. Her little daughter, who was with
her, said Winthrop gave her mother a pill,
but he denied the statement: All

strychnine. Evidence is said to have
been found that Mrs. Matthews had her
life insured for $4,000 a few days before
her death and that Winthrop is deputized
in the policy to hold the money in trust
for her daughter, Minnie, a child q years
old. Mrs. Matthews husband did not
know his wife had her life insured until
after her death and now the policy cannot

OF Soldiers Dead by the G. A. r.
Post at Columbus, Wis.

Columbus, Wis, May 25.-[Speciai.]-
A little less than a year ago-a few
days after memorial day-the subject
of erecting a soldiers monument at
Columbus. was brought up among the
members of the Columbus post of the
G. A. r. Discussion brought out the
opinion that it would be difficult to raise
sufficient money to erect such a me
mortal as was desired; but it being
brought to mind that a considerable
number of soldiers slept in unknown
and unmarked graves, it was determined
to raise enough money to at least give
the names of such defenders of their
country a place on a suitable monument.
A committee of comrades was selected
by the post to solicit subscriptions for
this purpose, consisting of Messrs j. n.
