Thought to be Located in the Texas
Town of Seguin.
St. Louis, Mo-, June 22.-Chief of
Police Harrington today received let
ter from the city marshal of Seguin,
Texas, stating that there is man In
that town going under the name of
Williams, who is supposed to be the
Rev. Thomas Abbott West a Metho-
dist minister of Chestertown, Ind,
who eloped from there with Susie Beck
and is charged with murder here in
St Louis in June, 1887. Chief Harring-
ton has requested the city marshal of
Seguin to, hold Williams or West for
further orders. If the Texas prisoner
proves to be the man wanted, his cap
ture win be due to his sister, a Mis-
souri, girl, who visited Texas some
months ago and told somebody her
brother was in hiding there and was
wanted for murder somewhere. This
led to letters being sent out to various
cities with a description of the man.
from which it is believed he is West,
wanted here. -

REVEALED HIS GUILTY SECRET.
And Ills Execution For Wife Murder
May Result.

And Ills Execution For Wife Murder
May Result.
Wellsboro. Pa, Sept. 7.--Walter Good
win was held by the coroner's jury
yesterday, charged with the murder
of his wife. Eftie Goodwin. who was
found by the roadside. near Mansfield,
and died Sunday without having re-
covered consciousness. There was
new development in the case yesterday
by the arrest of Gertrude Taylor at
the home of her father, Charles X.
Taylor, on Phoenix Run, Potter county.
This is the girl whom Goodwin says
he spent the evening with In Wells
boro last Friday. She Is only IA years
of age, and has frequently been with
Goodwin during the past fortnight.
At first she said she never heard OF
such town as Mansfield. but upon
being pressed with questions she finally
admitted that she went to Mansfield
last Thursday night with Goodwin, and
sat in the buggy and held the horse
while he had an interview with his
wife In the house of Mr.. Beach. She
drove back to the house of Goodwin's
father and spent the day there. On
Friday night, when the murder was
committed, she said she was with
Goodwin. They drove down to Wells
boro, then back past his fathers house
and on to Mansfield. where they ar
rived about 0:30 o'clock. She again
held the horse while he was away
about three quarters Of an hour. On
the road home, she said, Goodwin told
her that he was free man at last.
She said she knew that Mrs. Goodwin
had been killed early Saturday morn
Ing. This was some five or six hours
before the woman's body was dis
covered at Mansfield, and before any
one except those connected with the
crime knew she had been murdered.
The girl Is in jail here.

LABOR DAY.
Edward McHugh Talks to Labor Leaguers
on the Conditions Of the Day.

The United Labor League observed
Labor Day at Shellpot yesterday after
noon by speechmaking. The First Regi
ment Band furnished music,
Edward McHugh, of England and a
member Of the Longshoremen's Union
first spoke. He said that he had been sent
to this country about twelve months ago
by the organized trades union for the
purpose OF securing closer union between
the organized men of this country and the
other side. Ho had an opinion they were
we'll orgadized here, but 1t was poor
among the longshoremen, and the sailors
were not organized at all. His object was
to effect federation, but, he said, he
found nothiug to federato with. He went
to work and now there are 5000 organized
men in New York, Hoboken and Jersey
City
Why do men join unions? ho asked. he
supposed it was because they were justly
treated and they, get all the evil spirit to.
because deep In their hearts they feel they
have the conviction that they are unjustly
treated. From the labor leaders In this
city he found that the men were living In
no paradise. Yet this is tho land OF the
free. as tho poets sing. But the poets are
wrong.
The speaker said that only yesterday a
nan was found under tho arch erected to
tho honor Of Washington. He was In
starving condition, could not get work and
was too proud to beg -
those who work and those who don't. The
income of the men who don't work come
from the men who labor Tho idlers have
the best of 1t, and the workers have the
oxertion.
MIR. McHugh divided the workmen into
three classos Those who produce food
clothing and the necessities. II u man Is
not engaged in any of tho the three classes
he is loafoc. In England lord is anoth er
name for O loafer. The American loafers
aro Astor, Vanderbilt and Carnegie, the
speaker said.
have more freedom In England than in
America The factors Of wealth are land
and labor All arc dependent upon the
land for living. The workingmen were
ranked as beggars by the speaker because
they have to beg for work, and 1t Is no
different In begging for aims.
In speaking Of the emancipation OF the
slaves Mr.. McHuyh stated that slavery
eventually would have abolished itsell.
All the people in the world can't make q
free man, but God can. At the present
day, the speaker said, there is greater
there were in the South. No man is free
man who has to beg another, made US he
was, for chance to toll.
He also spoke of the taxation system In
England and said they were going to get
rid off by placing the burden of the taxa.
ton upon the wealthy land holders, and
he thought the same remedy could be put
into effective operation In tho United
States. What Is needed Is to have the
a precursor Of correct action. Action pro
duccs results. The men must have the
backbone to put the few fundamental
truths into operation. He hoped that tho
laboring men would organize Intelligent
ly, for ignorance will do nothing.
In tho evening Mahlon Bond Of Phil
adelphia and Frederick Lang spoke.

entrance from the rear. He was shot
by his son as he broke through the
