fccts of the unexpectedly favorable outcome
have been for easier money and Improvement.
Additional favorable influences arc found in
heavier bank clearings, continued iirmness of
prices sustained demand for iron and steel and
the announcement from some western cities OF
- revival in business with jobberS in staple
lines. At some eastern cities favorable trade
conditions are reported. Al the south gains in
wholesale lines are announced. The reverse
reports include the depressing Influences OF
stormy and wet weather. continuance of ex-
IRENE conservatism in almost all lines, and the
fact that tho rolief to the treasury b. the over
subscription to the bond issue in the absence OF
sound currency legislation by congress, will
proDably provo only temporary device to

Farmers Clubs In Convention.

The annual meeting of the Michigan
state Association of Farmers clubs
held a two days session ut Lansing.
Gov. Rich, after delivering an earnest
address of welcome, acceded to the re-
quest of the association and talked for
some time on state affairs, answering
the question, Ills the Government
Worth What it Costs?" He declared
that Michigan was governed as eco
nomically as any state in the union.
President a. C. Bird in his annual
address said that two years ago there
were but so farmers clubs in the
state, while now there are over 200.
The influence Of the clubs will be APP
preciated, he said, when it is stated
that some $4,000 persons, with the
same interests and purposes, gather
weekly in 200 communities in the state.
He said it was time for the association
to take up a different line of work
the great question of public cXpendi-
lures The discussion developed much
hostility to the University, and but
little to the charitable and reforma-
tory institutions.
The general trend of discussions
were to condemn the state legislature,
Legislators, state institutions and state
officers in general; protesting against
alleged excessive salaries and careless
pcss in expenditures. Gov. Rich pro-
tested against the wholesale coude M
nation Of legislatures. The legislators
were very much like the average
farmer, who, as supervisor, was not
particular to work too many hours
day, but never failed to charge full
legal rates. Col Vic Deland struck
responsive chord when he reminded
the eX-legislators, who had been kick
ing on various legislation, that they
did none of this kicking when they
were in the legislature, where it would
do some good, but they went with the
crowd. Detroit and Detroit affairs
were numerically roasted by Robert
Gibbons.
Resolutions whichwere adopted favor
equal suffrage, denouncing the appro-
priation for fish commission purposes
as eXtortionate, declare against all
junkets, want all officials salaries and
fees reduced, demand text books
printed by the state, advocate reduc-
ton in the number and pay of depart
ment clerks. They will exact pledges
from all Legislative candidates to sup
port these reforms
Officers were elected as follows:
President, A. n. Kinmis, Jr., Wixom;
vice president, j. L. Daniels, Union
Home; secretary, Ill. +. Peckham,
Parma; directors, w. ii. IIawlctt, Dams
vile; G. j. Phelps, West Branch.

Bold Robbers Mako "a Big Haul.

VIM. ii. Meyer, wholesale dealer in
cigars at Traverse City, was sitting at
his desk in his Office making out bills
when two men entered the room, blew
out his light and placing revolvers at
his head, demanded his money. lie
gave them about $40 which he had in
his pocket. They then demanded that
he should open his safe, and with
threats OF instant death should he re-
fuse, compelled him to do so. He was
then securely bound, gagged, tied to
his chair and the robbers took 81, 700
and escaped. In the morning do
mestic came to the cigar store OF
Thomas Thomas, across the street, and
stated that Meyer had not been home
during the night, and his family were
much alarmed. Thomas went to
Meyers Office, found the door unlocked
and discovered him bound as the rob.
beers had left him.

Labor Commissioner Morse reports
that during the past year there were

Family OF seven rutchorei at Chicago

An entire family OF six. father,
mother, wife and three children, were
murdered by Richard klattIlc, Il Chi
cago carpenter, who then completed
the work by killing himself The
members of the Klattke family were
found dead in tleir little cottage at
207 Berseau avenae. Each had u bull
let wound in the head and in each case
the ball had penetrated the brain death
evidently having been instantaneous
from the position of the bodies. Be
side the body of Richard Kattlle lay u
revolver and empty cartridge shells
were scattered about the rooms.
There were no signs of struggling on
the part Of any OF the victims and a
heavy odor which appeared to be that
of chloroform pervadcd the house.
From this il was surmised that Klattke
had chloroformed the entire family
and then taken deliberate aim and had
put a bullet into the brain of each
and then shot himself. klattke was Il

A Horrible Crime.

The recent finding of the headless
body of young woman in a lonely
spot near TT. Thomas, Ky, across the
Ohio river from Cincinnati has proved
a sensation which shocked three states.
For two weeks detectives followed
every clue and were almost ready to
give up when someone recognized a
description of the shoes worn by the
woman as being that of IA certain style
made by Il Portsmouth, o.. firm. 1t
was found that only small number
of this particular shape had been made
and that they had been sold to firm
at Greencastle, Ind. Thence each pair
was traced and accounted for until IL
became evident that Miss Pearl Bryan,
aged %, Il farmers daughter, was the
victim and after the headless trunk
had been fully identified the trail be-
came clearer. 1t was shown that the
poor girl was about to- become a mother;
that Scott Jackson, dental student
in II Cincinnati college, and VIM. Wood,
of Greencastle, were intimate with
the girl; that she had left home
ostensibly to go To indianapolis, but
instead had gone to Cincinnati where
