formerly OF New York city, convicted on the
testimony OF a son OF the murder Of his wife at
Shohola, was hanged in tho little stone Jail here
to-day.
The Rev. Mr.. Lassiter stood beside Schultz
at the gallows and supported him slightly.
Schultz was perfectly cool and collected and
smiled at times. He made a statement in which
he said that he was innocent Of the crime of
which he had been convicted. but that he for
gave all who had been connected with his prose-
cution. He then knelt with his spiritual adviser
and repeated the Lords Prayer. slowly and dis.
in his voice. The Rev. Mr.. Lassiter read tho
EPISCOPAL service for the dying.
Schultz continued to maintain his control.
When the clergyman had finished Schultz rose
and remarked to the Sheriff with a smile: This
moose tickles my neck
The deputies pinioned his arms and legs and
the Sheriff pulled the black cap down over his
face. and Mt ills touched the spring.. The
body was cut down ut 1l:4l, when It was found
that. his neck was not broken and that death
had been caused by strangulation.
Schultz had IL horror Of having his body cut
ND and last night telegraphed to his sons in Now
York city to come and get his body. No reply
was received. and the corpse was taken TO Port
Jervis this afternoon and put on board the $3.50
express train to be delivered to the State Board
of Anatomy at Philadelphia.

Dispute Between widow aud Children to No
Arranged Out or Court.

Arranged Out or Court.
When the contest over the wills of Charles
Coudert came up in the Surrogate's Court yes
terday for trial John Townshend, counsel for
the contesting widow, Marie NJ. Coudert. asked
for an adjournment on consent. stating that
negotiations were pending which he expected
would result in n settlement Of the case without
n trial. He said there remained only q few
points to dispose OF to reach a settlement. and
they would probably be adjusted before the case
came up again. On his motion 1t was adjourned
TO the first Monday in January.
Mr.. Coudert, who was u brother of Frederic
r. Coudert, and a member of the law firm Of
Coudert Brothers. left two wills. One executed
March 20 last left his estate to his widow. and
the other. executed May 7, left the bulk OF his
estate to his children. saying that he had
already provided for his widow, He named his
brother rs executor in each will. The widow
alleged that the last will was procured by undue
influence when her husband was mentally in
competent. She presented the first will for
probate. The children opposed the probate Of
the first will on the ground OF undue influence.
Il is said that between the dates OF the two
Wills Mr.. Coudert madc some valuable real
estate over to his wife.

There are ominous war clouds hover
ing over the little county OF Anoka.
The legislatures action in awarding the
fourth insane asylum to Hastings rests
heavy on the stomachs of the mighty ed
itors of the peaceful burg, that claims
Granville S. Pease as its own, and, by
all the gods, they swear that Anoka
shall be avenged. Threats of dire dlsas-
ter to the Republican party of the state
are read in every line. Rather the woes
of populism and anarchy than that Ano-
ka should not have what she wants.
"Play on your game, you POLITICAL idi-
ots!'' shouts Caswell of the Herald.
s'The next United. States senator shall
not hail from St. Paul." cries the proph-
ct of the Union. Protection, sound mon-
ey and reciprocity are lost in the Snuff
lie! Robbery, bribery and treason alone
are visible to the eyes of those who mould
the thought of the denizens on the banks
of Rum River. The State will next time
go overwhelmingly for Bryan and Lind
The Republican majority of fifty thous-
and will vanish into majorities for the
other side! Pease and Caswell shall be
the means of burying the gold standard
and giving to the people the reforms
that they have SO long demanded! The
land will be enriched with plenty, now
that Anoka falls into line. She has
long been a Republican bulwark. She
shall be so no longer. Let us sing prais :
es to Pease Let..u offer up to Caswell the
gratitude of what was once q hopeless,
but now happy and contident, minority !!

In a nutshell, the situation in Europe
is as follows: England expects war and
is making secret and hasty preparations
for a general outbreak of hostillties.
The Russian government has issued
positive orders for blockade of the
Greek and Cretan ports and suggests to
the other great powers that each send
Immediately two thousand men to Crete
IN order to effectually occupy the island
and compel the Greecian troops to with
draw. Turkey is sending 10000 troops
to the Servian frontier. There is great anx-
iety prevailing in Salonica for fear that
the Greeks will attack the town in case
war is declared. Seventy-two battalions
of Turkish infantry, six regiments Of
cavalry and twenty batteries of artillery
are already concentrated on the Greco
ian frontier. England has acceded 10
the Russian program and the blockade
will begin today. A meeting of forty
thousand Londonites was held Sunday
in which Greece was cheered and the
English MINISTRY Kissed. The Greeks
appear anxious for struggle and in the
island of Crete, the source of the trou-
bles, general anarchy prevails and the
rebels are pillaging towns and cities
There is trouble ahead and Greece is apt
to lose her place on the map of Europe
as all independent nation. Russia is
clearly the dictator among the powers
and will be the winner when it comes
to division of the spoils.

Bro. Pease of the Anoka Union should
not wax wroth. For all he knows, the
Legislature may have acted wisely in not
giving him the asylum for insane. Too
close proximity to institutions of that
character is not always healthful and
the consequences are sometimes actually
pitiful. Men, you know, often acquire
habits by reason Of association.
