Idaho's Governor Will Bring the
Wallace Murderers to Justice.
Especial to The Herald)

Especial TO The Herald)
Boise, Ida, Jan. Ex-Governor Steu-
nenberg has received a copy of the
evidence taken by the coroner's jury
that made the investigation into the
killing of Foreman Whitney of the
Frisco mine, supposedly by members
of the miners union, with whom Whit
ney was al swords points. The evil
dence, in connection with other infor-
nation received by the executive, has
greatly stirred him, and he has re-
solved to make a vigorous investiga-
ton on the part of the state, and hunt
the murderers out. So far the county
where the murder was committed has
done nothing.
The governor has not yet announced
his programme, but he is thoroughly
aroused, and says if there is any love
of justice on the part of the people as
a whole, or any law in this state to Sc
cure it, the guilty parties will be fer
reted out and hanged.
A special from Wallace says: Inter
est in the recent murder of Foreman
Whitney continues at high pitch. At
no time since these outrages begun has
the discussion and condemnation been
so Outspoken and emphatic as today.

LOVERS DIED TOGETHER.
Tragedy In Indiana With the Ele-
rnents of Romance.

Fort Wayne. Ind, Jan. S.-At Mon
doeville today the dead bodies of Miss
Viola Marquand, aged %. daughter of
a wealthy farmer, and Michael Miller,
aged &c, a saloon keeper, were found
lying in a room in the rear of Miller's
saloon. Miller lay in the bed at the
side of the room. Blood from bullet
wound in his right temple covered the
bed clothing Viola lay in a heap in
the middle of the floor, shot to death
in the same place. A revolver, with
two chambers empty, lay near her
right hand. Both bodies were in street
dress. Two letters, one purporting to
be from Viola and the other from
young Miller, were found. In each it
was the declaration that they wanted
to die together and be buried together.
The coroner says it would have been
impossible for Miller to have lived after
firing the fatal shot. The letters tend
to prove a double suicide, but the re-
volver by the girls hand cannot be
accounted for except by the theory
that she died after her lover.
