HE MURDERS BY PROXY.
DR., Meyer Gives Direction From His
Prison Cell for Another Murder,

NEW YORK, Oct. 9.-The World
today says: Warden Sage, of the
state prison at Sing Sing, has dis
covered evidence most conclusive
that DR.. Henry F. G. Meyer has
been planning another murder,
since he was sent to prison for life
for poisoning Ludwig Brandt. The
crime that he is believed to have
plotted is similar to the killing Of
Brandt and for similar purpose
that Of receiving life insurance
money. This money, il thus gained,
was to be used to effect the old doc
tors release from prison. The evil
dence consists chiefly Of letters and
memoranda found in Meyers cell.
These have been placed in the
hands Of the superintendent Of the
prison, General Lathrop. 1t seems
it is almost certain that Meyer,
since his Incarceration, has been
able to send letters underground
to his wife and other persons out
side the prison. In these letters he
is alleged to have given his accom-
plices directions how to get the de-
sired policy of insurance on the
proposed victims life and carry out
the rest of the plan. There have
been several masons and other citi-
zen mechanics employed inside the
prison walls during the summer,
and it is suspected that some one OF
these has afforded the prisoner
means of communicating with his
outside accomplices. Some time
ago DR.. Meyer handed a letter to
the prison chaplain, to be mailed.
1t was written in German and ad-
dressed to Mrs. Meyer. In it he
said that on certain day he would
send an underground" letter,
wherein he would give the "pre-
scriptions" to be used. From refer
ences in this letter it was made
clear that the prisoner had sent
other letters through the under
ground channel. Then Warden
Sage ordered Meyers cell to be
searched. The keepers found his
wife's letters, memoranda and other
proof which gave the authorities
the clue to the great crime.

THE PROFIT AND LOSS.


Now that the prize fight knock
out is completed and it is settled
thing that the sacred soil OF Texas
is not to be invaded thereby, 1t Is
in order to review the field OF bat
tie and see how the matter bal
ances. BY the act of the governor
and legislature the state Is saved
the odium that would have
attached to her, as the only one OF
the great sisterhood OF American
states in which prize fighting Is
sanctioned by law. This act has
advertised the state as one in which
the sporting element is SO far in
the minority as to have no percepti-
BILE influence upon state legislation;
as one in which the voice OF the
great body of the common people
has for once found expression
in a legislative act; as one
Ia which the ministers Of the state
are heard with approving voice. and
the petitions and circumstances OF
the churches are Of avail. 1t
stamps the state with the appro-
val of the humanitarians OF every
class and lifts her governor and
legislature into prominence, CIV
ing them the editorial commenda-
ton of nearly every metropolitan
journal in the country. This is
what it has done, but this is not
all that it has done.
The men who undertook to bring
that glove contest off at Dallas
understood their business and
had made arrangements for gather
ing a multitude at Dallas that sur
priced even themselves and were
the wonder of the agents OF trans
portation everywhere. By those
arrangements rates were made,
from every quarter Of this CONT
nent to Dallas, more favorable
than were made to and from Chi.
cago during the "Great Worlds
Fair" From Mexico, and from
Canada, and from the shores OF
both oceans and the great lakes
rates were given 80 low as to aston
ish those who were familiar with
the best terms offered to exposition
and conclaves and conventions of all
kinds. Not only were the rates low,
but the limit to the time of their
being valid was unduly extended,
covering a period of forty days.
These low rates and this longtime
provision meant to Texas such an
influx of visitors as the state has
never gathered within her borders,
not necessarily to witness the con.
test at Dallas, for vast thousands
of these visitors would not accept
q free ticket to such an exhibition,
but to see the state, prospect for To-
cations and gain personal knowl-
edge of her climate, soil, people
and resources. These rates will be
withdrawn, now that the prize fight
is also Withdrawn, and it is in or
der in casting up the profit and
loss OF this whole transaction to
figure out what the state has
gained in moral reputation, side
by side with what she has lost OF
valuable immigration and invest
ment through this gubernatorial
and legislative act. 1t is still an
open question if she would not
have been the gamer by making
friends of the mammon of Dan
Stuart's unrighteousness.
