murderer.
b Gilbert Gates was murdered near War
rensburg, Mo-, on the night Of May 2,
1872, while he was journeying westward
by wagon with Alexander Jester. When
night came they encamped on the river
bank, and under cover of darkness Jes-
ter, it is said, stole toward Gates and
shot him in the back. He robbed Gates
and then attempted to conceal the crime
by burning his victims body. Failing in
this, the murderer threw the corpse into
the river, whence it drifted down stream,
where it was finally discovered in Salt
river.
A successful chase for Jester follow
ed and he was captured. A. A. Gates,
father of the murdered man, fastened
from Chicago to the West at that time
and was one Of party which searched
the house of sister who was then living
eighteen miles north of Wichita. There
Mr.. Gates says he found clothing which
had been worn by his murdered son. This

Steamer Margaret O1will Goes Down
in Lake Erie.


In northeast gale the steamer Mar
garet Olwill, laden with stone from KEEL
ley's Island to Cleveland, foundered in
Lake Erie off Lorain, Ohio. Nine per-
sons were drowned. Four members Of
the crew have been picked up by passing
steamers and taken into Cleveland.
From the reports of the survivors the
Olwill's cargo of stone shifted while the
vessel was laboring in the trough of the
sea. Shortly before it went down the rud-
der chains parted, allowing it to fall off
into the trough. AS the helpless craft
rose on top Of heavy sea the stone slid
to leeward the steamer listed heavily,
and sank to the bottom. The rescued men,
bers of the crew were found floating on
the surface of Lake Erie, clinging to bits
Of wreckage. Their rescue was attended
by exhibitions of great herosm, for a
heavy sea was still running when they
were picked up.
The Olwill lies in fifty feet of water,
eight miles off Lorain. 1t belonged to L.
P. and ]. A. Smith Of Cleveland and had
been carrying stone from the quarries at
Kelley's Island to Cleveland for the
breakwater now being built. The Olwill
was launched in 1887 and was IT'S feet
long and "a feet beam. 1t measured 554
gross tons.

Young Greenwood to Serve Fourteen
Months in saltwater.
In the District Court at Rochester,
Mimi, the case of the State VS.. e. L..
Greenwood was very unexpectedly clos
ed by the defendant breaking down just
as the case came to trial and changing his
former plea of not guilty to guilty. The
trial of young Greenwood for forgery has
excited much interest in that part of the
State, where his grandfather, Stephen
Greenwood, was one of the early settlers
and very highly respected. Ernest Green
wood, the defendant, was brought up on
a farm, but two years ago drifted into life
insurance business and spent money so
freely on the luxuries of life that he was
obliged to- have recourse to, forged notes,
using the names of both relatives and
neghbors. His father, man who stands
high in the community, at first protected
this forged paper, but the volume became
too great and the son was indicted on
four counts by the grand jury at the De-
cember term of court. Judge Snow I'M
posed a very moderate penalty, sentenc-
ing Greenwood to Saltwater for fourteen
months.

John w. layer, former director OF the

The Mayor had just descended from his
living room over the store and was about
to unite his horse, standing near the
walk, when he was accosted by layer,
who said he wished to speak with him.
The Mayor thereupon turned and seated
himself in chair in front Of the store.
A mail carrier approached and handed
the Mayor letter, and while the carrier
was still present layer shot Mr.. Bal
birnie, the ball entering his left breast.
The murderer then stepped into the
doorway of the store, swallowed guam

a vial in his pocket, and then shot him.

Burnett, blacksmith, who has his shop
across the street, was witness to the
shooting. He ran after the Mayor and
reached the top Of the stairs just as Mr..
Balbirnie fell. In fifteen minutes, almost
before aid could be summoned, the Mayor
was dead. After layer shot himself he
sank to the walk, and later was removed
to the city hall, where he died shortly be-

and other evidence was introduced in the
trial, but before it was concluded Jester
escaped.
Since then he has been at large, and
efforts to find him have proved unavail-
ing. A few days ago the sister Of the

mons Of Wichita saying that her brother
was living in Shewanec under the name

TO ENFORCE FISHING LAWS.

to Aid French Vio1ators.
The Newfoundland colonial government
has prepared a circular intimating to
American fishermen that the bait act is
about to be stringently enforced against
the French, and warning the Americans
that if they assist the French by bringing
them bait to st. Pierre the laws will be
similarly enforced against them also. The
British first-class cruiser interchangeable,
one of the finest ships Of the British
North American squadron, has been or
dered to Newfoundland. 1t is no doubt
the intention of the naval authorities to
attach her to the feet performing fishery
service on the French coast

Movement to Unite 100000 Employees
in. New York City.
The organization of a great union of
100000 workmen in Greater New York
has been begun by committee appointed
by the Central Federated Union. VIII
liam A. Perrine, secretary of the iron
holders conference board and one of the
leading members of the committee, said:
''This new union will be the biggest local
central labor body on the face of the
earth. All the unions in the five bor-
oughs Of New York City will join. 1t
will be. more powerful than many great
national and international unions. and
will have more influence in one city than
any labor organization which has ever eH-
listed. The business of conducting the big
bodies which now exist independently Will
be greatly facilitated. Employees will also
benefit by the Capitalization of central
labor unions in New York City. Strikes
are bound to become fewer in number
year after year through the influence OF
the great central organization. The prin-
ciple of arbitration will triumph at last.
For twenty years the bricklayers' unions
have had no strikes, because all brlcklay-
ers have been in one union"

Union and non-union men walk the

the management in turn locked them out.

and were attacked by mob Of citizens.
The hotel was riddled with bullets. No
