killed his wife. little seven-year-oId daugh-
ter and himself at 8 o'clock this morning
at his residence on a farm. His wife was
sitting on the side of the bed, and they had
some words about a trade he was going to
make to-day when he pulled a revolver
from his pocket. He shot his wife twice in
the neck and body. The bed shows signs
of a terrible struggle. After the dastardly
deed he wiped the blood from his hands
on the bed clothing. He then caught his
little daughter and shot her three times, one
bali entering her eye. another going through
her forehead and the other penetrating her
neck. each making ugly, gaping wounds.
His revolver was now unloaded and, stand
Ing over the dead body of his child, he re-

loading his pistol. Washing his hands. he
started on foot TO the house of his brother,
Perry Ellis. who lived two miles distant,
meeting several ~neighbcrs on the way and
speaking to them pleasantly as IL nothing
had happened. Arriving at his brothers
residence. and after speaking to him, he
went into a bedroom. Placing the pistol to
his breast he fired, the ball penetrating his
heart and killing him instantly.
A letter was found in his pocket directed
to his brother, saying: 'Me and Ellen are

leaving all his property to his two children

NEW YORK. Feb. 1.-The last official
cablegram received at the New York Office
of the North German Lloyd Company in
this city to-day from the Bremen office
shows a total Of 1872 people lost by the
sinking OF the Elbe. OF those aboard, fifty
were cabin passengers and 149 steerage. The
crew in an entirety consisted Of 153 people.
OF the cabin passengers forty-four were
bound for this city and six were booked
for England; of the steerage 1879 were for
New York and ten for England. The crew
consisted of the captain. 145 petty officers
and crew. three stewardesses and four mail
clerks. OF the entire number of people
aboard, twenty were saved. To the list of
persons on board the Elbe, the pilots must
be added. thus swelling the total lost to 3s4.
A cablegram received at the Office of the
North German Lloyd Company this after
noon announces that the name of Antonio
Fisher. of Washington. d. c., was correctly
printed in the list of those lost. Domingo
Furrer. who was also reported lost, how
ever, sailed, on a British vessel.
When the name. of Mrs. Corners. wife of
Milton c. Corners, the wealthy cattleman
and miner, of Spearfisn. g.. D., appeared on
the passenger list as among those who were
drowned, her friends expressed doubt thai
she had taken passage on that steamer. as
her husbands name does not appear with
hers on the list Of passengers. The reason
for the nonappearance OF Mr.. Conners's
name Is made clear by a dispatch from
Lowestoft, saying that his body was on
board the Elbe. Mr.. Conners's physician
told him last fall that it was absolutely
necessary, in order to prolong his life, that
he should take aotrip abroad, and. accom-
panied by his wife. Mr.. Corners left the
Black Hills for Europe in the latter part of
December. AS the dispatch from loves
loft shows, he died recently in a sanitar-
ium near Berlin, and Mrs. Corners was evil

In THE CONFESSIONAL
SUICIDE OF A WEALTHY YOUNG
WOMAN AT NEW ORR
Cut Her Wrist and Throat In the
Church Of the Epiphany md Left
a Note Disclosing Her Name.

NEW YORK, Feb. lit was a few min
utes before 6 o'clock this evening when
two women in the Church of the Epiphany,
on Second avenue. this city, heard the
sound of a body falling, followed by groans
and gasps from a confessional box in the
southeast corner of the church. One wom-
an summoned the assistant sexton, who
hurried into the church, and, opening the
confessional, found. lying in a heap, with
blood flowing 1rom her right wrist and
throat. the almost lifeless body of a young
woman. A doctor was called, who saw that
the woman's condition was hopeless. ana
twenty minutes after the discovery she
was dead. In a pool of blood in the con-
fessional was found an old-fashioned razor.
With this she had almost severed one of
her hands, and her throat had been cut
from ear to ear. There were nc services
going on at the time.
An examination of the woman was made
and in her clothing was found a pocket
book containing 10 cents and a letter re-
veallng her identity. On the envelope was
written: II am Catherine Morrison, of 179
East Observation-Disclosures street." The
lettar read:
Dear Mary-Called to see you to-day.
home: Why do you not write and let us
know how you are? Mother has not been
well since New Years, but is feeling some
what better"
The letter was signed Katie Morrison"
At the address given in the letter it was
learned that the woman had boarded for
six years with George Powers, an express
man, and his family. Mr.. Powers took
charge of the body. Mr.. Powers said Mss
Morrison was a religious enthusiast and of
independent means. She was worth $780, 600
and was a friend of his wife from child
hood. Her father. who died when she was
a child, had been a broker. Her mother
had died seven years ago. He knew of no
trouble which would have led the young
woman to commit suicide. Miss Morrison
was thirty-one years old and good-looKing.
AT the church it was denied that the
woman had committed suicide within the
ediice, and there was an evident attempt
o the part of those Interested to conceal
the facts.

DANvILLE, Ind. Feb. 1.-The arrival
her to-day of Mr.. Henshaw, coupled with
the fact that a warrant for his arrest had
been issued, charging him with the murder
of his wife, aroused great interest in the
mysterious case. Last Tuesday detective
Burns, of Seymour, swore out a warrant
against Mr.. Henshaw and went to Win
chester to arrest him. There he was told
that he need not serve the warrant as Mr..
Henshaw would come when wanted. Hence
the warrant was not served, and Mr.. Hen
shaw came to Danville to-day. On his ar
rival here the coroner's inquest was con-
tinued, and he was on the stand ell after
noon. He repeated the same stery Of the
tragedy that has been published. Mr.. Diggs
Mayor of Winchester. came here to look
after Mr.. Henshaw's interest and he en-
gagged Hogate e. Clark to assist. Mr.. Diggs
said he was approached by Burns in Win
chester, who said he had come to arrest
Henshaw and he feared trouble, as the Hen
shaws were fearless people. Burns wanted
aid in making the arrest and protection
when he brought the prisoner to this place.
The Mayor made an agreement that Hen
shaw would come when wanted.
Detectives Webster and Burns were seen
to-day. The latter did the talking. He de-
ulou at HTSC IQdk d WARRANT WdS OUT dllQ
then said that the arrest OF Henshaw was
the result of the theory on which they had
keen working from the start.
Drs. Strong and Dryden, who attended
Henshaw, said that it was impossible for
him to have inflicted the wounds on himself.
AS the afternoon wore away the feeling
against the detective began to grow bitter
with the belief that an innocent man who
rad already suffered too much was accused
of a terrible crime. The inquest closed with
no new evidence presented.
Justice Hadley before whom the warrant
had been issued had appointed detective
Burns a special constable and he revoked
the appointment this afternoon and took
charge OF the warrant and announced that
il any arrests were to be made they would
be by regular officers of his, court. The de-
tectives insisted that an examination be
made of the body of Mrs. Henshaw to de-
Lermine the course. OF the bullet through the
brain. They argue that the bail would
either have caused paralysis of the lower
limbs so she could not have walked where
she was found after the shooting nor be
able to talk as had been tod by her hus-
band. Henshaw and the deceased woman's
parents readily agreed to such an examina-
ton. The result of the afternoons work
was that the minister was exonerated. The
indignation among the citizens over the
work of the detectives is general and sweep
ing. This is the third arrest that has bene
made and, it is said, without grounds for
suspicion.
