Mysterlors Murder In Buffalo

Edward l.. Burdick, president Of
the Buffalo IN. " Envelope company.
publisher, clubman, church mem.
Der, and a man of prominence both so.
cially and in the business world OF
Buffalo, was cruelty murdered in his
handsome home at 101 Ashland avenue
some time Thursday night.
His head was crushed to pulp by
repeated blows from some heavy blunt
instrument and when the deadly work
was done, sofa pillows and Turkish
rugs wsre piled upon his body by the
murderer.
No arrests have been made. The po
lice are at sea as to the identity of the
perpetrator of the terribla crime, and
every effort is being put forth to
throw some light upon the case.
Robbery was not the motive. The
numerous detectives who have visited
the scene of the tragedy are unani
nous in their opinions on that score
Where their suspicious may fall are
known only to themselves.
The weapon with which Mr. BurdicB
was killed has not yet been found. A
golf stick, free from any signs OF
blood, was found in one corner Of the
roem. II is therefore supposed that the
deadly weapon may have bsen a similar
instrument.

ems the Union Republicans and myself

in 1904 for the president. propose 10
help elect a majority of ths legislature
of 1904 favorable to my candidacy for
the United States senats."
Colonel Dick of the Republican ra.
tional committee is said to have come
here under instructions from Chairman
Hanna to urge the regular Republi.
cans to accept the proposition agreed
upon by Mr. Addicks and his adherents
on Saturday.
James Frank Alice was born in Do.
yer 46 years ago. In 1889 he became
associated with the Addicks wing Of
the Republican party. He was elect.
ed to the state senate on the Union
Republican ticket in 1898 and 1902,
each time overcoming the opposition
of Democratic and Regular Republican
Bay State Gas company of Delaware
and the Staten Island Brick company.
Mr.. Addicks began his long strug.
gle for a seat in the senate in 1888,
when the term of Eli Salisbury was
about to expire Although unknown
to the politicians of Delaware he OBJ
tanned some backing, but when the
Republican legislature met in Jan
uary, 1889, the caucus nomination
went to Anthony Higgins. In 1892 Mr.
Addicks again entered the senatorial
field, but the Democrats carri5d the
state and George Gray was elected
In 1894 when Mr.. Higgins term was
about to expire, Addicks made his
third essay for the senatorship. From
that time dates the split of the party
into factions styled Union and Regr
lar Republicans. Addicks returned to
the charge in 1898, when there was
another deadlock, lasting until ad
iournment in 1899.
Last year the two Republican fac
tions united on a state ticket, watch
was elected When the balloting be
gan on Jan. 90 of this year, Addicks
again turned up as a candidate foi
both terms, receiving 21 votes for the
long term and 10 for the short term

suited from a quarrel with her or con-
cerning her.
The sketch which the authorities
have pieced together from the frag-
ments of circumstantial evidence
picked up in connection with the
crime, is that of Mr.. Burdick meeting
by appointment some woman in his
den after his household had retired.
He was last seen by Margaret Muir
ray, one of the servants, going to thJ
cellar to fix the furnace, clad in his
updershirt and trousers. The rest of
his clothes was up stairs in his room.
When he was found dead In the morn
ing he wore only an undershirt and the
rest of his clothes with the exception
of his vest, were found in the den. His
vest was up stairs. The woman came
and he spread out a light lunch for
hsr. With the lunch was a small
bottle containing Martini cocktails.
Only small portion of the lunch was
eaten but the bottle was nearly emp
tied. After the lunch there was a
ne NOuldu uDOu
dick and attacked him with some blunt
weapon, beating him upon the head
with maniacal fury. No arrests
have yet been made, although the po-
lice have several alleged clues.
Within a few feet of the room in
which he was brutally murdered
Thursday night, the body of Edwin l.,
Burdick lay in coffin at o'clock
Saturday afternoon while Rev. L. NJ.
Powers of ths Church of the Messiah
performed simple funeral service.
In view of the tragic manner in
which Mr.. Burdick met death, it was
deemed best not to have any funeral
sermon. Mr.. Powers read briefly from
Scripture and offered a prayer. 1t
was all over quickly. There was no
music.
The body lay in the houss where
the murder occurred all Saturday
night. Sunday it was sent to Cana.
stota, Madison county, N. Y, for
burial.

Mandamus Against Railroad.

Justice Dean in the supreme court
Bt Philadelphia has handed down a
decision in the case of c. d. Lorraine
VS.. the Pittsburg, Johnstown, Evens-
berg and Eastern Railroad company,
reversing the decision of the common
pleas court of Clearfield county, which
was in favor of the defendants, and is
suing a writ of mandamus against the
railroad.
The plaintiff is soft coal operator
on the line of the railroad which is his
only outlet to the market.
On Nov. 19 the company notified Mr..
Lorain that on the following day, un-
less he sold his coal to the American
Union Coal company, which is con-
trolled by the president of the railroad
company, no cars would be furnished
him.
He was offered $3.50 ton by the
American company, and he claimed to
be able to demand SO in the open
market.
