ANOTHER THEORY.
The Mysterious Death Of Unfortunate An
ME Mct;rath

Philadelphia. March 26-Another
theory has arisen regarding Annie Nc
Grath's death to the effect that the
girl being engaged to be married TO
young man whose name has not yet
appeared. attempted to sever her rela-
tions with Samuel II. Langdon; that
the latter threatened to reveal their
intimacy II she did so and she fearing
such disclosure, attempted to kill him,
then committed suicide. This supposi-
tion Is borne out by a statement made
by Miss Addie Gri1iths. a friend OF
Annie. who was with her the day be-
fore her death. She then told Miss
Griffiths Langdon was to meet her
that night Saturday. adding I'm not
going to have anything more TO do
with him I'll tell him when l see him
/ won't keep his company any more" ."
on the same occasion Annie complain
ed OF toothache. Miss Grihlths went
with her 10 a drug store and asked for
some chloroform. IL was not sold her
and she said she could get II from a
dental student whom she knew. The
statement of Bertha Stewart. the serv-
ant employed I'm the Girard avenue
house. confirms the story that n quar-
rel occurred between the couple the
day the girl died.

Missoula, Mont, March pa mes
sage from Victor to this office Of the
Standard says: Charles Allen. the
scoundrel whose maligning tongue
caused the death OF Hattie Gilman,
was brought before a justice of the
peace to-day to be tried for malicious
SANDER. The evidence showed there
was no doubt that Allen had repeated
ly claimed to have been intimate with
Miss Gilman. and IL was shown that
the autopsy performed by the coroner
proved the absolute falsity OF Aliens
statements. Under the codes. however.
there is no punishment for slander.
which is not a crime. Allen was there
fore released from custody. At this
hour however. a crowd is quietly as
sembling and feeling is very high
against the defamer of the innocent
girl. A few of the more radical citi-
gems here have advocated lynching
Allen. but IL Is not thought that this
will be done.
A special received at a late hour to-
night gives further information regard
ing the affair at Victor. Forty OF the
leading citizens of Victor composed a
crowd who took justice into their own
hands. Allen was taken a mile from
the town and stripped TO the waist.
While others held him. Joshua Gilman.
the father OF the dead girl. held the
whip and administered the blows. Allen
acted like an arrant coward. No atten-
tion was paid to his cries and the blows
fell slowly and heavily until he could
endure no more. Sentiment all over
the valley is with the father and his
friends. IL was a case where the law
failed to afford relief and the action
seems perfectly justifiable.
A second message received at the
Standard office at $50 tonight says:
Charles Allen will trouble this COM
munity no longer. The crowd of in
dignant citizens who gathered early in
the evening did its work quietly but
effectively. Just at dark Allen was
found and taken just outside OF town
and given 100 lashes on his naked back.
/ When punishment was ended. Allen
was told to leave and never show up
here any more. He was an arrant cow
ard but his pleading had no effect The
I crowd was quiet but determined and
/ did it's work Thoroughly. Every blow
/ of the whip cut Aliens back and he Is
| terribly punished. The crowd was not
/ masked and made no attempt at con-
/ cealment OF its purpose. Public SEN
timent here Is that Allen got no more
| than he deserved.

strike out all the sections referring TO

spoke against encumbering appropria-

also opposed the high salaries proposed
by the bill. At time when the reve-
nues of the government are less than
the expenditures high salaries should
not be paid. Sherman asked why these
federal officers should receive more
than prosecuting attorneys and other
local and state officers.
Hoar supported Sherman's motion

THE LEGISLATURE.
A Flood of Bills lntroduced--So Some
Measures of Importance and Many
Minor Ones--Much Work Cut Out--
Ladies' Week and Festivities--Ad-
journment Over Election.

Judged by its record thus far the
legislature of 1896 is business body.
In spite of its short sessions and fire.
queHt adjournments il has broken the
record for work accomplished. In
the House up to Saturday last more
bills had been introduced by 1913 than
at the same period of the previous ses-
sion. We believe the Senate is also
up to the limit. Both houses have
disposed of the usual number of bills.
The secret of this unwonted dispatch
is the absence of "talkee- talkee." Up
to adjournment Friday there had not
been in the House one single debate or
discussion worthy of the name. Rou-
tine work has been the rule. A very
large number of bills remain to be
disposed of and couple of hundred
or so more will doubtless be intro
duced. Many, the great majority,
will require little attention, but some
demand more than they are likely TO
get. All the old "stand-bys." the Ii
cense and woman suffrage questions,
scores of amendments To the school,
highway and game laws, the problem
of double taxation and many other
general themes are scheduled. There
will be little time for consideration of
measures that stand no chance of pass
ing. Less Than three weeks time re-
mains before the limit and it will re-
quire the tallest kind of hustling
to get through before Thanksgiving.
After making provision for voting
at Montpelier the assembly adjourned
from Friday to Wednesday in order
to vote at home. This was wholly
unnecessary, OF course, but it has to
