 That means that Tammany w II try to prevent David B. Hills return to the United States senate" said a Tammany man who is now in Wash ingtcn, when informed that Richard Croker had decided for Senator Mur- phy as the state leader of the democ- racy. Croker was last night asked this direct question:

 The s; ;gnificance of this report, ac- ccrding to the authority quoted above, is that this is the very first exples- sion regarding New York state poli- tics Croker has made and that Tam many men will need no further tip to let them know they are no longer to regard Hill as state leader
 It is the expression we have be n looking for,' said the Washington Tammany man. Hill has been quiet ly trying to gather the re.ns in the state in his own hands again, but with Tammany Hall against him he may as we'll bid his hopes farewell Tam many has too big a prestige just now to be played with"
 Senator Murphy, when asked abaut what use he would make of his new position, rather indicated that the silver question would not be allowed to interfere in the next state cam paign.
 "nhe course of the republican legis- la.ure this fall will largely make up the issues of the next campaign" he said, ''and until the issues are known it is too soon to talk about men Or candidates

COINCIDENCE OF KETCHAM CASE
Millionaire's Widow and the Niece of
 Her First Husband Neighbors.

Chicago, Nov. 29.-A curious phase of the Ketcham case developed today. Two women interested in the out come have, unknown to each other, been near neighbors in this city They are Mrs. Ketcham and Mrs. Frank L. Titus, niece of John Walkup, ex-maycr of Emp oria, Kan, who made Mrs. Ketcham, then 15 years old, his wife, and died shortly afterward from ar senic poisoning. Mrs. Titus was quite young at the time of the trial in Kansas, but remembers distinctly the mysterious death of John Walkup, the trial of the child wife for murder and the speedy and dramatic acquittal.
 By a strange coincidence Mabel Wallace and Mrs. Titus have been liv- ing within a few blocks of each other in Chicago, but neither knew of the existence of the other, and it was not until the sensation over the death of John B. Ketcham again drew public attention to Mabel Wallace (Mrs Ketcham) tAaS Mrs. Titus knew the dark-eyed VI en who was acquitted of having the death of her uncle had b ner neighbor.

Arizona republican., 1897-11-29

San Francisco, Nov. 29.-District Attorney Barnes has made up his mind to take no steps whatever to- wards the execution of Durrant unt the attorney general of the state has fulfilled the duties imposed on him in the matter. While MT Barnes ap- preciates the advice lately received from Washington to the effect that Durrant's appeals in both the state and federal courts have lapsed a d that upon the fixing of another day fer the execution, the attorney-general will advise Warden Hale to do his duty without further delay, he nevertheless intends to proceed with the utmoss. caution.
 Better month or so of delay with the certainty that justice will be done at the termination of that period, than a repetition of the farce recently enacted" says MT. Barnes. The statement of Judge Bahrs to the ef feet that his honor will on the sec ond attempt give Blanche Lamont's s murderer at least sixty days in which to prepare for death, supplies the iD- ference that the execution will ;l.,t take place before the spring of next year.

The Chicago Tribune makes II o habit
every New Years day to compile and pub
lish q statement of the suicides and muir
dsrs in the United States. The report of
suicides for the year 1896 was $50. an aver
age Of twenty a day, against 1850 in 1892,
and 2040 in 1890, while the number of muir.
ders In 1895 was l0.652. against 1920 in
1890.
We commend to the eastern States which
are 90 proud Of their intelligence the Fact
that suicides and murders are the result
generally Of poverty. That is the original
cause for the most Of them, and when they
praise the present financial system OF this
Government, we hope they will keep 10
mind that because of it, the murders in six
years have increased more than lao per cent,
and the suicides about 100 per cent, until
now on an average there are eleven men
murdered and twenty commit suicide. II
they believe everything is going 90 all right
under such state Of affairs, let them cling
to that belief little longer, and they will
zee that this violence is not confined to self
destruction or 70 simply murder
