SEE HIS WIFE, WHO WAS DYING
AT HOME.

the naval operations the Mississippi.
In July. 1865, he received word that his
five children had died in one week of
diphtheria and that his wife lay at
deaths door. A request for leave of alb
sence was refused second letter to
him told him to hurry home If he wished
to see his wife alive Permission to leave
was again refused and Downey left with :
out it. He was detained 20 days in Chi
cago and upon his return to, the South
he found that his crew had been mus
tered out of the service and his own
name placed among deserters. Numerous
bills to clear his record have been pre-
sented to Congress since that time and
the case has been reviewed by several
administrations. Attorney General Knox
recently suggested a pardon by the Pres
ident as being the only way out of the
difficulty and the latter accepted the sug-
gestion.

Colon, Colombia, January 15.-via Gal
veston-The Colombian government has
purchased the steamer Chucuito belong
ing to the Pacific Steam Navigation Com
pany. Artillery from the Colombian gun
boat General Pinzon will be mounted on
the Chucuito which is little larger than
the liberal gunboat Darien.
Three hundred of the men brought here
yesterday from Savanilla by the Pin
zon proceeded to Panama today. A small
sailing vessel which has just arrived
at Panama reports that the liberal gum
boat Padilla fired eight shots across her
bows while she was at sea, but that she
was permitted to proceed to her port in
the department of Caucaua.
The Colombian government has cabled
General Alban. the military commander
of this district that 1t is able to send
him three thousand men from Buena
Ventura, on the Pacific coast should he
require them.

ing used by General Matos of Venezuela

NO HONOR AMONG
THESE THIEVES
TWO MEN ARRESTED FOR STEAL.
ING JEWELRY TRUNK CAUSES
THE OWNER TO ALSO BE HELD
AS THIEF.

New Orleans January 15.-George I.
Kline of st. Louis and Robert L. West
of Cincinnati were arrested across the
river this morning for robbing the trunk
of T. E. Manners of Chicago Of about
$500 worth of jewelry. They represented
themselves as Manners and another
guest, paid the bills and skipped out with
the baggage. They crossed the river in a
skiff, and were caught before the train
came through the watchfulnesss of a
newsboy. who had read the story in the
papers
Later in the day Manners came over to
identify the property, and Kline accused
him of being a thief under an alias. AS
the whole affair had queer look, Man
ners was also jailed. The police believe
he is Kerns, the New York jewelry thief,
and Chief of Detectives Titus of New
York sent a telegram which strengthens
the belief. Manners claims that he Is with
his father in the pawn brokerage business
In Chicago, and the jewelry taken was
unredeemed pledges he was trying to dis
pose of. Fifty diamond pins, gold watch,
a diamond brooch and some pearls are
in the lot.
Kline makes the direct charge that
Manners is Kern. The police say the de-
scription fits exactly, except that the
man here has no scar on his cheek. He
claims that he will have no difficulty
in proving that he is q Chicago jeweiry
salesman.

When Woman Defends Herself Brutal
Father Attacked Sleeping Chill
dren With Rail cutter--Foor

Pittsburg, JaEaary ia ghastly dis
coyery was made at 10 o'clock this morn
ing when some neighbors, hearing cries
coming from the residence of Vincent
yisolek, a Pole. at 200 Spring Alley,
knocked open ne doors and found the
bedroom of the house saturated with
blood.
Mrs. visolek lay beside her bed, her
face and head almost crushed beyond
recognition, dead, The little children.
their heads and bodies covered with cuts
and gashes. and the husband almost dead,
were lying on the floor.
1t appears that Visolek came home
intoxicated last night and assaulted his
wife with rail cutter. The first blow in
fiicted an ugly cash on her shoulder and
knocked her down, but she was on her
feet again in an instant and with such
weapons as she could find in the room
defended herself.
The three children were asleep on one
OF the beds, and the brutal father rushed
to the bed and rained blow after blow on
the little sleeping ones. The sharp edge
of the cutter hacked the children in a
frightfu manner, and the hospital physi-
clans say th4re is little hope of their re-
covery.
The attack on the children infuriated
the wife, and with a knife In each hand
she sprang at her husband and stabbed
him a number Of times He managed to
get number of blows during the close
battle, and seeing that she was getting
weaker he gave her a shove, and she

down on her head with all his force,
crushing her skull, and she fell to the
floor dead. BY the time he had killed his
wife. visolek was exhausted He sank
on the floor and lay there throughout the
night unable to move. The means of the
children this morning and one of them
crying was what attracted the neighbors.
Vis0iek, It Is said, was not married
to the woman. whose name 1t developed
later was Rosa Lok. A strange man who
was found in the house by the police was
locked up. He refuses to talk.
Developments tonight add mystery to
the tragedy. Three Poles who were board
ers In the Visolek house are under ar
rest and the police are securing the city
for John Okenski who was also a board
er but who has not been seen since the
murder. 1t is learned that the woman
had $1,000 on her person last night and
this Is missing. Okensld Is accused of
setting fire to mattress in the house
a week ago and later Visolek tried to
have him arrested because he had
threatened to rob the house.
When found the woman was lying
across a coat which belonged to
Okenski with her face and head batter
ed almost to a jelly. Visolek's head was
beaten in and his skull fractured. The
childrens' heads were also crushed and
physicians at the hospital say none of
the injured can recover. Up to late
hour tonight none of them had regain
ed consciousness.

NEW ROUTE FOR CANAL
PROPOSED BY SERRELL

government shall take possession of the
canal. The company asserts 1t has secur-
ed a right of way.
The newly suggested route Is less than
thirty miles long, and therefore is shorter
than any other so far as proposed. No
engineering difficulties are encountered.
Its supporters say until spur of the
Andes are reached. This mountain chain
must be pierced by tunnel seven miles
long. and the plans state that it will be
200 feet high, $50 feet wide and deep
enough for the largest ship which would
go through the canal. The rock through
which the tunnel would be cut is said to
be solid granite. In the tunnel trolley
appliance would tow the ships.
General Serrell, who is at the head of
the project. was engineer of the Panama
railroad and has acted as engineer of the
Panama railroad and as engineer for the
government.
