Evidence OF Fight to the Death Be-
tween Rival Lovers.
Chester, Conn, July 18.-Harry Chad
wick, aged "a years, of New Britain.
was murdered Sunday night by Joseph
Hough, aged 80, who then attempted
to kill himself by cutting his throat.
Chadwick's body has not been found,
and the details Of the tragedy are not
fully known. Chadwick came here on
Saturday night to visit Miss Mary
Smith, to whom he was paying atten-
lions. Hough, WHO boarded with the
Smith family, was also enamored of
the young woman. Chadwick left the
Smith house about 1890 Sunday night
on his bicycle, and that was the last
seen Of him.
Yesterday morning ladder was
found leaning against the window of
the room occupied by Hough. There
were spots of blood on the ladder, and
when the mans room was entered he
was found lying on the bed in pool
of blood. He had cut five inches long
in his neck. His bicycle was also found
to be covered with blood, and an in
yestigation was begun.
In Tylerville searchers found the
bicycle owned by Chadwick and his
watch and cuffs. There we're several
pools Of blood and evidences of a
struggle.
1t is stated that Hough had admit
ted to Alden Smith, a brother Of the
girl, that he killed Chadwick and
threw his body into the river. He is
said to have stated that he sought to
scare Chadwick and that an alterca-
ton resulted, during which Chadwick
drew razor and cut him on the side
of the face. He then choked Chadwick
until, as he supposed, he was uncon-
scious, but later found he was dead.
He then dragged the young mans body
to the river, where he threw 1t in.
Riding home, he took his own razor
from drawer, intending to commit
suicide, when he felt himself growing
faint and called for help. He Is in
critical condition. The river is being
dragged.

CHAPTER XIV.
AN INTERVIEW WITH THE POLICE.

The student got his wine and I the
required address Some remark was
made as to the length Of time l had
been in his room, but said nothing Of
the undignified defeat had suffered.
Then / went with Borofsky to the
pristaf of the second oochastok Of the
VASTLY Ostrof divisional police, leav.
ing Percy on duty at home to hang
about the passage and see that my
friend the student was up to no mis-.
chief.
We found the pristaf at home and
Borofsky did all the talking for our
side, excepting when I was addressed
and was obliged to answer.
The official looked coldly at us as we
entered. Russian officials have most
disagreeable way. I have never seen
any Muscovite in authority without
this particular manner-a kind Of dis
dainful and supercilious hauteur which
neither affability nor humor nor gross
fattery will penetrate, but only, occa-
sionally-rather often-the almighty
and all penetrating ruble.
"Yes3" said the pristaf.

"to consult you about a certain arrest
effected by you or your men on or
about the'-
"Stopl" said the pristaf "Wby have

"Yes and no." said Borofsky boldly.
ut has been judged, or went without
judgment; but it must be reopened."
"Who says SOL"
"Those who have suffered injustice
by it."
"Injustice' That is a foolish word to
use in this place. Proceed. Who has
suffered injustice-the delinquent"
1.-THE convicted, yes; he and others"
"Indeedl How so2 He was convicted,
you say, and, Of course, punished. Has
his innocence only now come to light?"
at is not a matter Of innocence and
guilt, pristaf. A great blunder has been
committed"-
"A blunderl Deuce take 1t. what
blunder2 Wherein this oochastok2 It
is impossiblel'
II admit that the department in this
quarter is not to be suspected Of blum
dering, as a rule. "said Borofsky. "Jus.
tice reigns supreme in this oochastok
and in the bosom of its enlightened
pristaf, but this time you have been the
victim Of an organized conspiracy"
"Well, proceed" said the pristaf,
not in the least fiurried or softened by
Borofsky' hattery. The fellow took it
for what it was worth, and he knew
the value of the compliments of those
who came to make appeals ut the police
court.
Proceed" he said. "We have blum
dered but through no fault of our own
Some one has been too clever for u.s.
Yes; proceed. SIR
"You must allow me to tell you the
details Of the affair, pristaf." said poor
Borofsky, feeling that his remarks beat
like waves upon the hard rock Of this
mans official impenetrability.
"Why should II" said the pristaf
at is surely your duty to investigate
matters which are declared to you to
need investigation and to set right that

which, as I say. terrible mistake has

PROSPERITY SHOULD REACH ALL

The operatives i'm the Fall River cotton
mills have asked for a conference with
the manufacturers in the matter off am
increase of wages The American Wool
and Cotton Reporter, commenting ON the
demand for better wages, says:
ut DIS an admitted fact that the mills
have recently been passing through one
on the most prosperous periods in their
history, but that, at the same time, the
operatives have not been DOING NEARLY SO
well as in some former periods. The OBJ
eratives hear about the extraordinary
prosperity of the country, hut they do
not find this prosperity reflected in their
own condition. Hence it as, that they
are impelled to ask that a part of the
increased profit of the mills be allotted to
them"
