LOVERS MAD RAGE.
Because the Girl Refuses to
Elope with Him.

Lincoln, ILL.,, July II. - \ foul and
bloody murder was committed Friday
night in the cemetery at Mason City,
west of here, when Roy Sutton, young
man 20 years of age, shot Miss Leona
Elmere, girl of is years he loved.
He had incurred the disfavor of his
sweetheart's parents, who forbade him
paying any further attentions to their
pretty daughter. He secretly took the
girl out driving. About midnight he
drove into the business part of the
city and announced that he had shot
himself. When he was being taken to
the doctor he said that he had dropped
his revolver near the cemetery and re-
quested that it be found Two COM
panions went to the cemetery and found
the girls body in pool of blood with
two wounds, one in the back and an
other through the breast. Death was
instantaneous. a pistol was found near
the girls body. Sutton was shot
through the body below the heart.
Young Sutton died Sunday morning
early. He was conscious up to few
hours before his death, but steadfastly
refused to make any further statement
concerning the murder of his sweet
heart. To all questions asked him he
maintained n strict silence except to
say that he had agreed with the girl
they should die together. He would
not admit that there was struggle be-
tween them when he shot her.

DEFEAT SEEMS PROBABLE.
An Early Ending of the Brooklyn
! Trolleymen's Strike il Predicted
Police QucIl n Small Riot.


New York, July t9.-The Brooklyn
trolley strike is still on, and in ali
likelihood there will be no end to the
labor trouble for several days to come
The striking motormen and conduc.
tors claim they are gaining ground.
On the other hand, the representatives
of the Brooklyn Traction Co. assert
that the strike is only nominal one
and that hereafter they will experience
no difficulty in running the full COM
plement of cars. The company did
not run any cars over its lines after
dark on Monday evening, but resumed
traffic shortly after o'clock Tuesday
morning. Numbers of cars were run
over the lines, but the time schedule
was not lived up to on any one of
them, and fair estimate of the rolling
stock in operation would be about 60
per cent.
Great difficulty was experienced in
running ears over the Nassau system,
and liberal estimate of the cars run
over the Nassau lines would be about
30 per cent. of the regular number.
The Fifth and Seventh avenue lines
were frequently blockaded, and the
company did not handle more than 15
per cent. of the regular daily traffic.
The Douglass and Bergen street cars
were run at intervals of Is and 20
minutes, but each of the cars was
manned by at least four policemen.
During the day the police made sew
eral arrests of persons who interfered
with the progress of the cars on the
Nassau lines. A small riot occurred q
few minutes after 6 o'clock. in which
two men were painfully, but not seri-
ouslv hurt. A mob of some 400 per-
sons attacked Fifth avenue car on it's
way into the city at Sixth street and
Fifth avenue and Motorman Chatham
and Conductor Mulcahy were pulled
off the car and badly treated. Three
arrests were made and in less than Is
minutes the cars were running.
Master Workman Parsons and Dis
trict Master Pines were very confident
that the strikers would win the fight,
but judging from the number of cars
in operation the assertion of the rail-
road managers that the strike would
fzzle out seems to be well founded.

Caused n Sensation.

washington, July 1S.-Ihe publlca-
ton of the war correspondents formal
Indictment of Gen. Otis management
of the Philippine campaign caused a
sensation in the departments here.
Secretary Hay had received advices as
late as Monday from civil as we'll as
military sources in the Philippines
which led him to declare that the sit
uation there was certainly improved
materially, and the prospects for the
future had frightened very much.
With these advices, the secretary said,
Gen. Otis had had nothing to do, and
they were from disinterested persons
whose opinions must carry weight.
Generally there was strong disin-
clination exhibited by the officials to
discuss the last ''round robin"
Cabinet to Discuss 1t.
The Manila dispatch sent from Hong
Kong by the newspaper men will be
taken up by the cabinet to-day. So far
as can be learned nothing has been done
or decided on concerning the communi.
cation, Officials are exceptionally reti.
cent on the subject and it could not
even be ascertained whether the news
paper card had been cabled TO Gen.
Otis, though it is presumed that this
las been done, since otherwise he would
not learn of il, in the ordinary course
of things, for some weeks, when Ameri-
can and European mails reach him. II
was sad by prominent army officer
that Gen. Otis probably would be left
free to act on the card as he thought
best. Nothing, he added, has been heard
from Gen. Otis on the subject.

Pre,ident Mckinley Speaks from the Spot

In the course of his western tour
President Mckinley stopped at Gales

To give the credit by saving here in

and then Lincoln and Douglas stood
no longer divided. Sumter was fired

at this critical iuncture was that Of "A

has accepted. He will be in a posi-

great opportunities in the Cape Nome
country. The former stenographer
for Judge DuBose, +. W. Mettlpr, has
opened a law office at tCape Nome and
Is enthsiastice i'm his views OF the fu
ture of that country.
Judge DuBose has been on the
bench in the Tenth district for nearly
nine years. When the district was
created, early in 1891, Governor Toole
appointed him Judge. He was the
youngest Judge of court Of record
in the United States and his district
was the largest i'm the country, ex-
nding from North Dakotu to Idaho,
from the International boundary al
most to the Yellowstone, and EN-
bracing the territory now constitute
ing the counties of Ch0teau, Fergus,
Valley, Teton and Flathead. The
last two have since been segregated
from the district.
Judge DuBose has ranked near, II
not at, the top of the judges of the
state, the supreme court seldom re-
versing one of his decisions. He has
twice been reelected by large MAORI
ties, once in 1899. and again in 1896,
although in district largely Repub-
lican. His term does not expire until
January, 1901, and he could easily be
reelected, II not called up toltha su-
preme court. AS his salary as Judge
is $500 per annum, it il evident that
he has an excellent offer from the
Alaska company, and his many
friends all over Montana will hope
that he may meet with very great
success"

JUDGE DUBOSE TO RESIGN.
Announces His Intention Of Going to Alaska
in the Spring.

The announcement comes from
Great Falls that Judge Dudley Du-
Bose of this Tenth Judicial district,
has announced his intention Of re-
signing his position about MaN 1st
next, and going to Alaska to accept
a position with the North American
Trading & Transportation Co.
When the Judge was last in Lewis
town he talked of such change, but
though appearing to be attracted to
the position offered, had by no means
made up his mind To accept and it
was sincerely hoped by all his friends
that he would not leave the district.
Throughout his term, about nine
years, he has constantly increased his
number of admirers and by alb
splute impartiality in his official
duties has won and held the respect
of all those who have been compelled
to submit their troubles to judicial
adjustment. Prompt i'm his decisions
upon all points and almost univer
sally upheld by the higher courts he
has won an enviable record and the
people of the district have prided
themselves that their courts were
presided over by one equal To any
Judge in the state and superior to
many.
Notwithstanding the district has
always been strongly Republican, he
has been easily elected to succeed
himself and, should he have remained
and stood for reelection next year,
would unquestionably have had a
large following.
Should Judge DuBose resign, as
now seems certain, Governor. Smith
will be called upon to fill thevacancy
by appointment, until a successor
shall have been chosen by the peo-
pie at the elections next fall. The
governor may appoint or the people
may elect any resident of the state,
the law not requiring that the Judge,
prior to taking office, be resident
of the district.
The Great Falls Tribune, In which
Judge DuBose is also held in high es-
TEEN, gives the following, sketch OF
the judges career:
Judge Dudley DuBose OF the Tenth
judicial district arrived from Fort
Benton last evening and surprised
his friends by announcing that he
would, in May, resign his position
and go to Cape Nome, Alaska, ex-
pecting to remain there for at least
five years. He has already engaged
