CHARGED WITH
DOUBLE MURDER.
Important Arrest at Seattle
by a Minneapolis
Detective.
ALLSOP, ALIAS AUSTIN.
Evidence That He Is One of the
Worst Criminals of the
Century.
TALE OF CRIME IN TWO CITIES
Secured His Victims Through Employ.
ment Agencies, Married, Killed
and Robbed Them.

SEATTLE, WASH, April 16. James E.
Allsop, alias A. A. Austin, wanted for
double murder, was arrested in Seattle
this afternoon by Detective John Court
ney of the Minneapolis police department..
The crimes are alleged to have been COM
mitted in Duluth, Mimi, and Tacoma,
this State, the victim in each instance
being woman. 1t is charged-and Court
ney says the evidence is most conclusive
that on the 21st of August, 1894 Allsop,
who was then going by the name of Aus
tin, decoyed Miss Lena Olsen under prom
ise of marriage from Minneapolis to Du-
luth, and in that city took her to an iso-
lated place on the shores of Lake Superior,
and after numbering her robbed her of
$3.50 in cash. Having been choked into
Inconsistencies her skull was then crushed
with club.
Allsop met Miss Olsen through the
agency of a Minneapolis employment bu-
reau, having represented himself as rich
widower from Los Angeles, Cal. and that
he had daughter II years old and was
searching for trustworthy housekeeper,
money being no object.
During the boom days Allsop was en-
gagged in the real estate business at
Tacoma with William Burroughs, and in
1890 his wife was killed by, supposed at
the time, a runaway. Later it was
whispered that the woman had met foul
death and Detective Courtney says there
is no doubt but that she was murdered.
In 1892 Allsop married Miss Min thorn
at Tacoma, who is now an attachee in the
Auditors office of Pierce County. Three
months after his second marriage Allsop
fed from Tacoma and was arrested in
Minneapolis at the instance of George II.
Hollidge of the Tacoma Light and Water
Company, charged with having secured
$1,000 by false representations. tie slipped
through the meshes of the law and after
the commission of the Duluth crime left
for parts unknown, having since been a
fugitive with big rewards offered for his
capture by the city of Duluth and St.
Louis County.
Detective Courtney got trace of Allsop
through a Minneapolis lady with whom
the fugitive at one time boarded and in
whose possession he left a valise contain
ing will and copy of the Tacoma News
giving description of him and an account
of his arrest in Minneapolis. The descrip-
ton tailed with that of Austin and the
signature to the will was found TO be iden-
tical with the writing of Austin on a
Duluth hotel register. So with these clews
Courtney headed for Tacoma, where the
present Mrs. AIlsop and daughter by his
first wife reside.
Allsop, it appears, has been fitting back
and forth between Tacoma and Seattle for
several weeks. In this city he registered
as ]. Olsen, the name of the woman whose
life he is charged with having taken.
Courtney will leave for the East with his
prisoner as soon as the necessary requisi-
ton papers have been procured. Allsop is
an Englishman by birth and 40 years of
age.

BL|GHTEO BY THE FROST,
Grapes and All Tender Plants
and Vegetables Injured in
Many Places.
1rreparable Damage to the Raisin
Crop Reported From Fresno
and Vicinity.

FRESNO, CAL, April 16.-For the past
three DAYS cold wind has been blowing a
stiff gale from the north, gradually lower
ing the temperature. About 1 o'clock this
morning the frost point was reached,
which has caused enormous if not, indeed
lrrepara BILE damage to the raisin and grape
crop for this year. Owing to the tender
shoots just forming it is a most critical
period for cold weather. Reports differ as
to the per cent of damage, but it is known
to be very great. All tender plants and
vegetables also suffered from the frost,
which amounted to freeze in the low
land. Owing to the advanced state of the
fruit crop the damage, it is thought, will
be comparatively small. This loss, how
ever, cannot be very accurately estimated
for few days. The weather is still cold
and gusty, with the temperature danger
ously near the freezing point.

TRENTON, n. j.. April 16.-The Repub-
Hcan State convention TO elect delegates to
the st. Louis convention was held in this
city to-day. 1t was called to order at u 80
by Chairman Franklin Murphy, of the
State committee.
After the reading of the call and other
preliminaries, Senator Edward Stokes of
Cumberland was named as temporary
chairman of the convention and in accept
ing the honor delivered a ringing speech
on prominent issues. The usual COM
mittees were appointed and the conVen-
tion took a recess.
Upon reassem bling the temporary or.
ganizatloA was made permanent and a
State committee selected. Messrs. Seweil.
Hobart, kean and Murphy were nomin-
ated by acclamatlon as delegates to the
ST. Louis convention with Messrs. Breck.
inrldge. GUNNER, Loudenslager and Reed
as alternates. The platform contains the
following paragraph:
1.-The standard of value in this countrv
and in the other principal com mmerciaI ma
tions of the world is gold. Wages and
prices have been fixed in accordance with
this standard, and the welfare of the peonle
demands that it should be maintained.

ATTITUDE OF THE A. P A.
How the Organization Stands
Toward Republican Presi-
Dental Candidates.
Mckinley Accused of Discriminating
in Favor of Catholics as
Against Protestants.

BOSTON. Mass, April 16.-James B.
Dunn, secretary of the National advisory
| board of the American Protective Asso-
citation, makes an official statement as to
the attitude of the order toward the var
ious candidates whose names will be pre-
sented for nomination at the st. Louis
Convention, in which he says in substance
that the executive committee of the Ma
tional advisory board, which recently
met in Washington and New York, has
reached these conclusions:
That the National advisory board adopt
no candidate as the candidate which the
order should support, as to do SO at this
time would be most unwise and impolItic
X The deliberate Judgment OF every member
of the committee was that such a thing as
booming" particular candidate should
not be done. Therefore, whoSoeyer states
that any one candidate is the candidate
adopted by the American Protective Asso-
citation states what is not true.
After carefully analyzIng the evidence
adduced, the committee found to be true
the charge against one of the candidates
viz: Governor McKinley-of discriminat-
ing in his appointments in favor of
Romanists and against American Protest
ants, because the latter were members of
the a. 2. A.
VI the otner canQldateS, VIZ. William b.
Allison of Iowa, Senator Quay of Penn
sylvania, Senator Cullom of Illinois
Governor Bradley of Kentucky, Governor
Morton of New York, ex-President Har-
rison and Thomas B. Reed, the commit
tee was satisfied with their Americanism
and sympathy with the principles of the
order.
Concerning the charges made against
Thomas B. Reed. the committee found
them to be groundless. 1t is also nota-
BILE fact that the only State conventions
which have thus far incorporated the
principles of our order in their platform
are the States that are now booming Mr..
Reed. On such platform, if nominated.
he must stand.
The committee regrets that it has been
unable to make any statement with re-
spect to the candidates of the Democratic
party, from the fact that as yet no candi
dates have come to the surface.
If the talk of President Cleveland for
third term should be materialized his
record is TOO well known to need anv com
ment. The committee is, however. on the
alert, and will in due time communicate
with the order.

San Joaquin FALLEN Suffers.

STOCKTON, CAL. April 16.-The heavy
frost of last night, following that of yes

the grape crop in this part of the country.
Heavy smudge fires were burned last night
and the night before at the vineyard of
Henry Armbrust and at the West vine
yard here, but last night they did no good
and fully half of the crop is destroyed as
well as the potato crop in this county.
The damage to Armbrust alone counts sew
eral thousand dollars, and that to West is
greater. In Lodi, Modesto, Woodbridge
and Acampo the damage to early vegeta-
bles and potatoes is great.
