NEW BATTLE SHIPS.
The House Committee on Naval Affairs
Favors Building Them.

Washington. Jan. $50 far as can be
learned the members Of the House COM
mittee on naval AFFAIRS are disposed TO
incorporate an appropriation for two, and
probably three, new battleships and
twelve torpedo boats In the naval appro-
priation bill which will be reported to
the House within few days. A belief
that the treasury receipts viii be consid-
e~ably in excess Of the expenditures be
fore the close of the fiscal year. and
certainly not more than Is per cent. of the
amount appropriated will be needed for
fifteen months from the present time, and
the necessity. for continuing the work Of
creating more powerful navy are the
considerations which lead the members
to think that the country will approve
al appropriation Of 100000, or there
about at this session for the new ships
Such OF the members of the committee
as were spoken with regarding the mat
ter to-day expressed the belief that the
economists OF the House would fercely
antagonize the appropriation, but the eN-
pectation is that it will be permitted to
remain in the bill.

A DOCTOR SLAIN BY A SHERIFF.
The Victim lad Defeated His Murderer
for Re-elc elton.

Harrodsburg, Ky, Jan. AIT 1850
o'clock this morning Sheriff John I. Van
Arsdall shot and killed Or. l. h. Harrod
in LAWYERS ROW. The physician had just
returned from the pOstofice, when he
was Intercepted 10y me sheriff who opened
fire on him at close quarters, firing three
shots. The killing is attributable to the
recent election in this county Van Ars-
dali was candidate for reelection and
was opposed by the doctor. An anony-
nous circular in which Van Arsdall was
rake fore and aft in his domestic relations
was sent out. Van Arsdall was defeated
for reelection and charged Dr.. Harrod
with the authorship OF the circular. The
dead man graduated at Louisville four
wears ago and located here. He was a
native of Ohio and leaves wife. He had
built up a large and refnunerative prac-
lice. and it is not unlikely that trouble
will follow the killing, as he had many
friends.

MUST HAVE MORE REVENUE.
A Tax on Checks and a Rise on Beer
Under Discussion.

Washington. Jan. 4.-The formidable op-
position 80 the income tax which has
developed in congress, it is understood,
duds partial encouragement and support
in administration circles. The fight. as
already stated. centers around the para
graph in the urgent deficiency bill max
ing an appropriation to carry the law
into effect. If the proposition can be de-
feated this will, of course, kill the in
come tax by the congressional method
known as starving to DEATH That the
not De reduced from Secretary Carlisle's
proposed to raise revenue in lieu of the
income tax from two sources viz: To in
crease the tax on beer and revive the
tax OF cents on each bank check pre-
scented for payment. From these two
sources. it is said, more revenue than is
expected from the income tax can be
derived and with far less friction. IT is
acknowledged that an increased tax on
beer can be collected at no extra cost
by the present force of internal revenue
officers. The bank check tax practically
collects itself. When the new tariff bill
was being prepared the question of in
creasing the beer tax was discussed by
the democratic members of the ways
and means committee of the House. bat
was dropped because it was considered
bad politics. at that time to increase
that tax. The same reasons, it is said,
DO not now obtain.

KILLED FOR INSURANCE.
Man and Woman Arrested ON n Serious
Charge at Muskegon.

MUSHROOM, April 12.-Mrs. Mary +.
Houghson and George w. King were
arrested Thursday, charged with the
murder i'm 1892 of Nathan Douglas The
latter lived in Fruitport on "a small farm
and was worth about 50, 800, To secure
which, il is charged, the woman mar
ried him. Two years before her husband,
Justin l.. Kissing IA printer employed
on the News, died suddenly, complain
ing of inflammation of the stomach.
His life insurance. 81 900. went To his
widow, and shortly afterward she and
King took up their quarters in II block
and were ON the best of terms.
Two years after the death of
Kissing she was married To Douglas,
and King was out at the farm more or
less. Sixty-four days after the mar
riage Douglas died suddenly, COM
planning of pains in his stomach. A
week before he made a will. leaving
his property and his life insurance to
his wife, changing it from his sister,
who had been caring for him up to the
time of his marriage. The will was
drawn by King.
The sister, Mrs. Eunice Williams.
protested that his death was unnatural
and complained to the great tent of
the Maccabee in winch he was in
sured, that he had been murdered The
tent made an investigation, but did not
go into the matter very deeply, and
the subject never becoming public
was dropped. Mrs. Houghson admits
lending King nearly $1,000, but says
she did SO out of friendship. An ex-
animation of Douglas body reveals
arsenic in quantities sufficient To kill.
Since his death the woman has been
twice married. NJ. Il. Fadner, her
third husba nd, deserted her because
she insisted on claiming his pension
money and secured a divorce. She
married Henry Houghson last Decem-
Der. The evidence against the couple
was discovered while the officers were
hunting for testimony in proceedings
which We're pending against King, who
was on trial for arson.
King was the proprietor of drug
store in Ottawa street in this city and
was recently arrested charged with
setting his store aflre, but was released
because of insufficient evidence. Mrs.
Houghson is an aunt of King.

MICHIGAN BASEBALL MAD.
Every City OF importance In the state a
Member OF "A League

GRAND RAPIDS, April 13.-The West
ern Baseball league season will open
May l, Grand Rapids at indianapolis,
Toledo at Detroit, Kansas City at st.
Paul and Minneapolis at Milwaukee.
The league is the same as last year,
with the exception that st. Paul takes
the place of Sioux City.
In Michigan this year baseball will
rank first as a popular sport. In addi-
ton to having two cities, Detroit and
Grand Rapids, in the western league,
there will be Michigan league made
up of Kalamazoo, Port Huron, Adrian,
Owosso. Jackson and Saginaw. There
will also be northern Michigan
league, with such cities as Mus
kegon, Big Rapids, Traverse City,
Cadillac, Petoskey and 'Charlevoix
on the list. The upper peninsula will
have four or six city league, includ-
ing Marquette, Negaunee, Houghton
and lshpeming. The interest aroused
in the game last season gives fairly
good assurance that baseball will be
sufficiently popular this season to make
all the leagues profitable financially.

PLEASANT FOR CONvICTS.
Mayor Pingree's scheme to Seciude Them
All Island.

DETROIT. April l5.-Mayor Pingree
believes convicts should be secluded on
large island somewhere in the great
lakes. They should be divided into
classes and taught all branches
of farming and gardening. Exper
iment plants should be estab-
lished where all kinds of foreign
vegetables would be grown. Seeds
enough to supply all the farmers in the
state could be raised on the convict
farms. When the terms of the con-
victs expired, instead of seeking the
cities with their temptations, they
could be settled or farms and there
after lead reputable lives The mayor
thinks it wrong for convicts to manu-
facture articles which paid labor pro-
duces. The mayor has also announced
all city street sweepings will be saved

vate with potatoes this year.
