ALL MURDERED.
A Mother and Four Children
FOully Slain
And Their Home Burned to
Conceal the Crime.

st. Louis, April ga special to the
Post-Dispatch from Dexter, Mo-, says;
Mrs. Jane Tuttleton, a widow and her
four children, two boys and two girls,
ranging in age from to II years, were
murdered in cold blood in their home
fifteen miles south of Maiden last ngiht
and their bodies partially consumed in
the fire that destroyed the residence.
]. H. TuttIeton, a stepson of Mrs. Tut
Teton, who had hitherto borne a good
reputation, has been arrested on
suspicion of having committed the
crime, as all the circumstances seem to
point to his guilt. The feeling against
Tuttleton is intense and there are
threats of lynching.
The Tuttleton family was an in
f1uential one in thi scommunity. Some
time ago Wash Tuttleton, a man of
considerable means died leaving an
estate, the greater part of which was
bequeathed to Mrs. Jane TuttletOn, his
second wife. J. H. TuttletOn, his son
by the first wife, was appointed admin
istrator. His management of the estate
was not entirely satisfactory to Mrs.
TuttletOn and as a result several suits
were brought. Yesterday, however, Mrs.
Tuttleton agreed to dismiss the suits
for a cash consideration of $500 and to
cancel claims held upon lands belong
ing to the estate.
J. H. Tuttleton went to his step
mothers home last night to adjust mat
ters and that was the last seen of the
widow and her children alive. About 9
O'Clock neighbors saw that the Tuttle-
ton home was on fire and on reaching
there discovered the bodies of the five
victims in the flames. Vigorous efforts
on the part of those present saved them
from total destruction. AS it was the
bodies were burned past recognition.
One of the children had a bullet wound
in the head and half the mothers skull
was gone.
J. H. Tuttleton was found in the yard
with thirteen knife wounds on the hands
and head, shamming Inconsistencies
His wounds are trif1ing.
TuttletOn tells many conflicting stoE
les of the affair but sticks to the state
ment that the crime was committed by
two unknown men. He says that he
was talking with his StepmOther about
the payment of $3.50, for which he
showed a receipt covered with blood
and purported to have been signed by
the widow, when the men entered and
demanded the money. He refused to
give it up and they opened fire. At
the first fire Tuttleton said the widow
fell and he ran into the yard when he
was cut and beaten into insensibility.
He claims to be entirely ignorant of all
that followed.
The dead woman seems to have had
a presentiment that something would
happen to her. She spoke of this to a
neighbor yesterday and told of a mys-
terious visit ]. H. Tuttleton made to
the house recently at night.
Coroner Harrison is holding an in
quest this afternoon. There is intense
feeling against TuttletOn and the Sher-
iff has taken him to a safe place.
A knife and pistol, identified as the
property of TuttletOn have been recOv-
cred from the ruins.
Tuttleton is a member of the board Of
town trustees of Bernie, eight miles
from Maiden.

Was Extended by Citizens of
New York Today
On the Occasion of His Embarka.
tiOn For Europe.
CROWD FOLLOWED HIM
On Board the Ship and Onto
the Deck.
Hundreds Crowded Around to
Say Good Bye.

New York, April 26.-Richard Croker
sailed for Europe today aboard the
American line steamship New York.
Save for his sister, Mrs. Warren, Mr..
Croker was unaccompanied.
When the Tammany chief reached
the pier half an hour before the big
liner pulled out of her berth, he was
met by party of friends who had
come down to say "bon voyage" Mr..
Croker was all smiles and he nodded
pleasantly to as many as caught his
eye.
Then f1anked by his immediate advis-
ers he moved toward the gang plank.
In minute he had made the ascent
and stood on the main deck. There was
hurried movement by the awaiting
politicians who followed up the incline,
which strained under the load. Mr..
Croker was soon pressed on all sides
and finally found his position so un-
comfortable that he fastened into the
main saloon. The crowd behind follow
ed until he stood at the foot of the
stairway leading to the upper deck. Up
these went Mr.. Croker quickly, his
friends and political adherents right on
his heels. When the promenade deck
was reached, he was again surrounded
and the reception that followed appear
ed to give satisfaction to the departing
Tammanyite.
AS the time for the sailing of the ship
grew near the crush on the deck where
Mr.. Croker was holding his Ievee be-
came SO great that it was with difficult
ty that one could even elbow his way to
the central figure. Hundreds of hands
were thrust in front of Mr.. Croker and
he graSped as many as possible
The ship appeared to be alive with
men and women. The saloon passenger
list contained some 300 names, and their
friends combined with the assemblage
of politicians, made one of the biggest
brushes experienced on a departing
liner in many a day.
Arriving at Southampton, Mr.. Croker
will proceed directly to his place at
Vantage, where he has his racing
horses.
Speaking of his stable, Mr.. Croker
said: "I can't tell now just what 1
shall do in the racing line until 1 reach
England. 1 have about 20 or % horses,
six of which are yearlings. have not
settled anything yet about engage
ments for the big events, except that
Knickerbocker is entered for the der
by"
Sir Julian Pauncefote, the British am
bassador who with his family boarded
the New York was scarcely recognized
in the excitement and enthusiasm which
attended the departure of the TammanY
leader.
Speaker Thomas B. Reed was also a
family.
A number of friends were at the pier
to wish him a pleasant voyage but in
scarcely distinguishable.
Mr.. Reed said to a reporter that he
was going abroad for a vacation Of
about three months duration and that
upon his return he would settle in New
York. He refused to discuss the politi-
cal outlook. Being asked if he would
talk with his fellow passenger. Mr.
Croker, Mr.. Reed said:
"Oh, we will probably say HOW do
you do?' to each other"

FIGHT AT HUTCHINSON.
Gen. Joe Hudson, A. w. Smith
and Pat COney Oppose Le-
land, Crum and Stanley.

Hutchinson, April 26.-The fight here
at the old soldiers encampment has
been a severe one today over the selec-
ton of department commander.
On the one hand, there are the old
veterans whose pensions have not been
as large as they desired. These are be-
ing handled by Gen. J. K. Hudson, PAT
Coney of Topeka, and A. W. Smith of
Mcpherson. On the other hand, are
Cyrus Leland, Jr., national Republican
committeeman from Kansas, and Pen
sion commissioner of Kansas, Missouri,
Iowa and Indian Territory; Lit Crumb,
presiding judge of the new court of
visitation of railroads of Kansas; Gov.
Stanley and the state administration
generally. The forces under the direc-
tfon Of Leland desire an Endorsement of
Evans, and desire the election of Ben
Fagan, of Ellsworth, as department
commander. The other crowd want to
elect Q. H. Coulter, editor of the West
ern Veteran, as department command
er. Leland wants to be a delegate at
large from Kansas to the national en-
campment, and it is on these lines that
the battle is to be waged. Coulter is
somewhat handle Gpped because he has
been making SOm~z very severe attacks
on President Mckinley in his paper.

NO MERCY.
Mrs. Anna Georges Attorney
Tells the Jury
That His Client Wants Nothing
But Justice.
THE ALTHOUSE HOME.
He Declares, Was a Fitting
Place For the End
Of the Owners Companion in
Wrong.
THE ALTHOUSE HOME,

Canton, O., April 26.-Attorney We'll
ty occupied the morning in his closing
speech in defense of Mrs. George, ac-
cused of the murder of George D. Sax
ton. He said to the jury that if they
found the accused guilty of murder in
the first degree, they should not rec
ommend her to mercy, thus substitute
ing Imprisonment for life for the death
penalty.
For her sake and for my sake" he
said, do not recommend mercy. We do
not ask it, we do not want it,
The evidence was reviewed on the
hypothesis that it was nothing but cir
cumstantial and clouded with doubt in
important essentials.
In commenting on a threat about go
ing to the Althouse home to create
trouble, Mr.. Welty said it was fitting
that Saxton should meet his death
there on the steps of the house of his
companion in wrong doing.
At the adjournment of court last
evening the arguments were little more
than half completed. Mr.. Welty had
barely warmed up to the work.
Mr.. Pomerene, who closes for the
state, will not be expected to finish in
less than half day, which at the ear
lieSt will throw the end of the argu-
ments to the adjournment hour this
evening. The judge has unofficially
said that his charge will not be lengthy;
that 1t VIII not occupy more than 10 or
20 minutes and it is possible that it
will be delivered this evening. There
may be some hesitancy, however, about
sending the jury out at the close of the
day and it will be no surprise if the
judges charge is not delivered until to-
morrow morning.
Mr.. Sterling continued to talk dur
ing two hours of the afternoon session
yesterday, reviewing and summing up
the testimony and especially attacking
the testimony of Mrs. Echroat, the eye
witness on the ground of her alleged
excessive use of morphine and the con-
tentiOn that by reason of the darkness
it was impossible for any one to have
been recognized under the admitted
conditions.
Mr.. Welty had spoken. but a little
more than an hour at the adjournment,
part of which was devoted to citing ad-
ditional authorities on the legal propo-
sitions. He then began review of the
life of Mrs. George so far as it has been
introduced in evidence in this case, rep
reSenting her as an unSophiSticated
country woman, a novice in the ways
of the world until she came in contact
with SaxtOn. Her fall he described in
detail and just was entering upon a
review of the threats which constitute
a considerable volume of the evidence
and the circumstances under which
they were made, when adjournment oc-
Cured.
Mr. Welty today discussed the testi-
mony bearing on the homicide. He
insisted upon the weakness of material
links in the chain of circumstances, as
the completeness of the alibi presented,
as well as the accounting for burrs and
needles and the condition of the ac-
cuSed when arrested.

FIRST OFFICIAL ACTS.
Of the. New Commander of the
G. A r.

Cincinnati April 26.-The first two
orders of the acting commander-in-
chief of the G. A. r., w. c. Johnson,
the senior vice commander-in- chief,
have been issued. The first one recites
the action of the executive council in
providing that the place of the dead
COMMUNICATIVE chief, Sexton, should not
be filled until the end of his term, but
that the duties of the office should be
performed by the senior vice command
er-in-chief. 1t announces that his office
shall be at 321 Pike building, Cincin-
natl. The other order is the annual one
concerning Memorial day. The order
calls attention to the provision of the
thirtieth annual encampment that Pres
ident LincOln'S Gettysburg address be
made a feature of Memorial day exer-
cises, and directs commanders of posts
to have it read in connection with the
exercises of the day.
The acting cOmmander-in-chiefs says:
1.-The year closing with the next Mem
oriaI day has added strength and power
to the nation and new glory to the flag.
The worth and fame of the American
soldier and sailor have been gloriously
advanced. The achievements of the
days of the sixties still remain and
have rendered possible the glorious vic
tories now in the interest of liberty and
humanity"
