der of Their Hanged
for Two Murders,

Muskegon, Mich, April lO.-Word has
been received from Pentwater of bold
attempt on the life of William O. Sands
president of the Sands g. Maxwell Lum-
ber company.
When he was within few yards of his
home, H. R. Minchell jumped from be.
hind corner and commenced firing at
him. Sands ran across the street to his
home, the wouldbe assassin following
and keeping up the fire.
Five shots we're fred, three taking ef-
feet in Sands right side and one in the
leg. Minohelf Immediately went home,
shot his wife and two children, aud then
took his own life.
The officials found Minohell's residence
locked and broke in the door. A hor-
rible sight was presented. Mrs. Minchell
was lying on the floor with bullet hole
in her temple.
Near her was the dead body of her
daughter Ruby, about 18 years old.
In corner lay Mlnchell with an empty
revolver clutched in his hand. He, too,
was dead.
In an adjoining bedroom were found
the bodies OF George, aged 4, and an in
fant brother. in bed together, killed while
they slept.
Minohell, who was an insurance agent,
left long letter, the gist of which is that
Sands promised him all the company's
business and now demanded third of
the commission. Minchell was badly in
volved and extreme love for his family
prompted him to kill them, rather than
see them suffer.

born have made sworn statements to
their attorneys denying the alleged con-
fessions, in which they were made to
admit having planned the murder of their
father, and in which Thos. Davenport,
the girls sweetheart, was charged with
committing the crime.
1t was alleged by Chas. Schaffer, the
Kansas City detective, that he received
detailed confessions from the two chill
dren. This document he refuses to make
public.
All three planned the crime, it was al
legged, and for executing it Davenport
was to marry the girl and to come in on
a division of the property valued at $780,
600.
The children declare their signatures
to the confession were forced from them.
There is heavy reward for the convio
tion of those concerned in thD murder.
Hints of plot to wrong fully convict the
Lamborn children to gain their fortune
are made.
Annie Lamborn, who made the most
damaging confession of the two, is de-
scribed as weak minded girl, capable
of being easily influenced.

man left Washington last night for his
western tour. Among the cities in which
the senator is booked to speak are St.
Louis and Denver. This tour ia designed
to bring Senator Tiliman forward as a
ouuulOdUO iOT buo pttsIuouCys
Senator Tillman is nothing If lot frank,
and he makes no concealment of his
plans and purposes. He expects to make
a hit in the west, and his hope is that
when he returns to the capital he will be
one of the biggest figures on the political
horizon. His aim is to SO arouse the sill.
yer sentiment in the weet that the free sil.
verites will secure control of the Chicago
convention. IT this occurs, Senator Till
mans friends believe he will be the nom
inee.
They have been doing some close fgur.
ing, and they Slain to be ready to show
the Chicago convention that with Senator
Tillman as the nominee he will be sure OF
100000 Populistic votes and of 100000
silver Republican votes. Should the free
silverites dominate the convention and
Senator Tillman be selected as the stand
ard-bearer bolt of the sound money
Democ and the nomination of a sound
money candidate ia expected. This, in
fact, is what is desired, for with an east
ern sound money Democrat in the field
and Republican nominee on a sound
money platform, Tillman will then have
his opposition divided and bis own forces
solicited. Should the silverites fail,
however, to get control of the Chicago
convention, the purpose of the Tillman-
ties ls to make the silver vote as large as
possible, and have him put forward as
the nominee of the free silver and Popu-
list convention in st. Louis.
There are many free silver Democrats
who do not favor Tillman, and assert that
even should that element control in Chi
cago, Gov. Boies, of iowa, and not Till.
man, would be the nominee. Tillman's
friends, however, do not concede this.
