after Murdering Controller Insane
Man accidentally Kills Himself.

Austin. Tex, June 30.-Frenzied by supposed
wrongs. w G. Hill, formerly clerk in the State
Controllers Office. this morning entered the pri-
vate Office Of Controller r. NJ. Love, and shot
him dead AS Hill turned to flee he was inter-
cepted by Chief Clerk Stevens, and in the
scuff1e which followed Hills revolver was acc-
dentally discharged The bullet entered Hills
abdomen and he died this afternoon.
No one can give reason for the shooting other
than that it was the act of a madman. Hill had
been an employe Of the Controllers office for ten
years preceding Mr.. Loves incumbrance. He
was discharged by Mr.. Love and it was pre-
sumed that this drove him insane This morn
ing he went TO the Capitol. entered Mr.. Loves
private office, spoke to him cheerfully. shook
hands. and. handing the Controller letter to
read, sat down.
No sooner had Mr. Love begun to read the
letter, than Hill sprang to his feet and fired two
shots at him. taking effect just above and
the other Immediately below the heart. Mr..
Love screamed, dropped the letter and sprang
toward the assassin, but fell before reaching
him. Hill turned TO run. but before reaching the
door he was intercepted by Chief Clerk Stevens,
who was wrestling with him when Hills pistol
was accidentally discharged. the bullet entering
HilRs abdomen. He was taken to the hospital
where he died few hours later
The letter that Hill gave TO Mr.. Love to read
was follows:

W. G. HILL
Hill was quiet man, never known to have
bad habits. He was holding q good position
here, so that want could not have prompted the
shooting. 1t is the general opinion that he
was insane. Immediately after the shooting

In this connection Il is interesting TO note that
the total collections for the period 1895 to 1901
inclusive. the four years of the last Tammany

less than one-thrd of the year and half total
of the present administration.
Mr. SAKE states that the result achieved is due
TO persistent and systematic effort toward

toward such unfortunates, bis mania
