MURDERED IN HIS OFFICE.
ASSASSIN USES THE DEADLY DYNA-
MITE BOMB.
Hamlin J. Andrus, Secretary of the
Arlington Chemical Company, OF
Yonkers, the Victim.

YONKERS. N. Y, Oct. 21.-Hamlin
]. Andrus. secretary of the Arlington
Chemical company, was murdered to-
day in his office by some unknown
miscreant, who chose dynamite bomb
as his weapon.
The work looked like that of mad
man or an anarchist, and when all the
evidence that could be gathered today
was sifted it looked as if the bomb
had not been intended for the victim
which it reached, but for his brother.
John z. Andrus, the wealthiest man in
Yonkers and president of the concern
The dynamite bomb is supposed to
have been placed on wastepaper-bo
under the desk. which Mr. Andrus
used as footstool. Mr.. Andrus had
no enemies. The family suspect no
one. Several employees had been dis
charged recently for lack of work, but
they showed no ill-feeling-
The police believe it is the work of
anarchists.
]. z. Andrus firmly believes that it
was case of assassination. He thinks
the bomb was intended for both his
brother and himself. He says that
since the young Americans have been
driven out of the carpet works in
Yonkers their places have been taken
by foreigners, who are anarchistic in
their leanings. Twice within the last
month he has learned that his life was
threatened.
The dead man was AZ years of age
and was one of the most popular bust
ness men in YonkerS.

SAY HE IS A FRAUD.

sillowaye, However, Is Worrying
Them just the Same.
CHICAGO, Oct 21.-Robert t. Lin
coin, today declared that he believed
This man who calls himself Colonel
Sillowaye is a simple imposter. and
that nothing he says is entitled to the
least faith or credit
Sillowaye is the man who claims to
have in his possession a letter alleged
to have been written in 1890 by Major
Mckinley, in which the writer is repre-
scented as opposed to granting pensions
to veterans of the civil war. Mr. Lin
coin further said that in 1893 and in
1894 he received marked copies of a
Boston newspaper containing long
account of the distressed circumstances
of Colonel William H Sillowaye in
which the latter's valuable military
services were vaguely referred to as
well as his special claim on charity
for having saved President Lincoln
from being captured by rebels. One of
the headlines asked why doesn't
Robert Lincoln help this man?''
In Sept, 1894, Mr. Lincoln received
a letter from the editor of the
American Nation. Boston, vouching for
Sillowaye and asking Lincoln to assist
in securing a pension for him As
Sillowaye had claimed to have a letter
from President Lincoln thanking him
Tor his services. Robert Lincoln offered,
If the letter was sent him. for examina-
ton, TO return it, together with a GER
tain sum of money as a gift In reply
to this rambling letter was received
in which Sillowaye said the letter was
IN the possession of his daughter and
he had been unable to get it
An examination of army registers
showed no officer by the name of Sill
lowaye said Mr.. Lincoln. and the
steamer Brooks, on which Sillowaye
claims TO have been employed as an
engineer in the navy was a river boat
hired by the war department and
operated by the owner
Continuing, Mr.. Lincoln said: "Sil-
lowaye wrote that the saving of my
father from capture took place May
Is, 1868. HIS statement is to the effect
that the steamer Brooks was attacked
by rebels May 13. 1868, down the Po-
tomac, ana that he, in some way I'M
described, saved the president from
capture.
On page 474 of part II, vol. %. of
series l, records of the war of the re-
bellion, is found a telegram dated
Washington, May IL, 1853, which is adj
dressed to Major General Hooker and
signed by President Lincoln, requesting
General Hooker to come UP and see
the president that evening and follow
ing that telegram in the book is the re-
ply of General Hooker stating that he
would come.
From all these facts, 1 therefore
have no doubt whatever that this man
Sillowaye is Simple imposter.''

A STANDING DISGRACE,
Condition of Twelfth South Street
1t Is DepiornbIe.
o.

OuSdluOuoC, OCl. Il.
To the Editor of The Herald:
The people of Sugar House living on
and in the vicinity of Twelfth South
street, between State street and the
penitentiary. are very indignant over
the condition of that thoroughfare be-
tween the points named. The reason for
this is about as follows: This is the
season of the year that sheep men
move their ffocks from their summer
to their winter range. Sheep herders
pass along Twelfth South street until
they reach the Jordan river, and it has
been the habit of the county court 10
sprinkle this street until the sheep
herds had passed or until our fall
storms came and put the road in good
shape for sheep to travel along with
out everlastingly enveloping everything
and everybody in a cloud of dust.
Some time ago for some reason or
other, Geddes, Christopherson & Co.
stopped the sorinkling of Twelfth
South, and when it is remembered that
these worthless through our road super
visor, graveled this street during the
summer with a sort of gravel mixed
largely with dust, and which must have
cost quite a large sum of money, and
now for the want of a little water are
leItiilS II 80 10 ruin, can III De Won
dered at that the people of Sugar
House are indignant. Twelfth South
street is a standing disgrace 10 those
managing the affairs of the county, and
the people living along that street will
not forget this on election day. We
have swallowed enough dust in the
last few weeks to warrant us in de-
handing change in the personnel of
our county court. and we are going to
get that change by marking an X OPP
posite the rooster and letting it go at
that. Some people might think this
letter is written for political effect; to
them | would say just come and live
on this street 1 have referred to,
where there is from two to six inches
of dust and where several herds of
sheep travel over nearly every day,
for about six weeks in the spring and
fall, when you can't see your neighbor
across the street for clouds of dust.
You will, think, come to the conclu-
sion that we have just cause for com
plant. TAXPAYER.

that Mr. Castle was absolutely innocent
and that justice required his acquittal.
Mrs Castle, he said, was very much

Mr.. Abrahams intimated, would be

of the Perquisites of the Offices,
Particularly Those in Great Brit
ain.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 2s.-Secretary OIL
ney today issued an order of far reach
ing effect on the American consular
service. It abolished many fees against
which foreign shippers and domestic
importers have so long protested, and
at the same time sweeps way the lu-
crative attractions of many consulates
abroad, particularly those IN Great
Britain, where the loss to consular
officials in the shape of fees which they
have hitherto retained, will aggregate
over 5000 900. The new amendments to
the consular regulations are as follows:
No oath shall be required for the
verification of invoices of merchandise
on the free list or subject to specific
duty only.
The verification by oath of invoices of
merchandise subject expressly or in eff
feet TO ad valorem duty may be re-
quired when fhe consular office to
whom the invoices are reported have
been able to suspect fraudulent under
valuation or other wilful misstate-
ments therein, but shall not be required
in any ordinary case. Under this sec
ton any oath may be taken by a
commissioner or such other officer as
provided by law.
Consular officers are prohibited from
receiving the whole or any part of the
fees charged by a commissioner or
other officer for administering oaths to
invoices, from receiving anything as
a gratuity or otherwise on account of
administration of such oaths and from
being in any way either directly or in
directly privately interested in such
fees.
These regulations, which take effect
at once, are expected to effect great
reform to the service and correct many
abuses which have been alleged to ex-
is.

NATIONAL sf9RITTlAIIsTs.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 21.-At today's
session of the fourth annual meeting
of the National Spiritualists' associa-
ton the executive committee in a re-
port denounced the charge that the
association was formed for the purpose
of exercising the functions of pope"
in spiritualism. Its work was held
to be purely of business nature, and
was not to exercise any kind of CEN
sorship.
The financial statement showed
satisfactory condition of the associa-
