Chicago, Ill May 30 From Chi.
cago to New York In nineteen hours
is the new schedule which the man.
agement OF the New York Central
Hines has decided upon for the Twen-
tieth Century limited train. This
new race against time, which will
make the train by long odds the fast
est long distance train in the world,
will 60 into effect on June Is. Wall
street firms want an additional hour
for business in Chicago 80 that they
can put in full days work and re.
turn to New York on the same day
that they come. On the other hand
the stock exchange and board OF
trade interests are anxious to havea
full working day here before taking
the train to transact business in New
York city the following day. Before
a request was made for reduction in
the east bound schedule the manage
ment of the road had tested the speed
possibilities OF the train to the full
est. 1t was discovered that the time
could be made in eighteen hours
easily under ordinary conditions.

Killed His Wife, Three
Children and Himself.

San Rafa.l, CAL, May 29.-William
Stephens, who lived at Ross Valley,
Marion county, murdered his wife,
shot his five children, three of whom
died instantly, attempted to murder
a passing milkman, and then ended
his own life.
Stephens, who was 35 years old,
was formerly a book agent, but lat.
terly was said to be connected with a
rubber goods house OF San Francisco.
The family also conducted chicken
ranch at their home In Ross Valley.
Stephens emerged from his house, re-
volver In hand, and fired upon a
passing milkman. The milkman
whipped up his horses and Stephens
pursued him for 200 yards, firing as
he ran. Stephens then halted in the
roadway, placed the revolver to his
breast and discharged the weapon.
The bullet did not end his life and he
senta second fatal bullet through his
brain.
When neighbors and officers enter
ed the home OF Stephens, they came
upon a shocking scene. The mem.
bers of the family, each with re.
volver wound in the head, were found
In their beds. The wife and three of
the children we're dead, and 1t is be-
lieved that two OF the surviving chill
dren can not live. The children
ranged from / to IL years In age.
There is at present no known rea.
son for the tragedy, but the theory
is advanced that Stephens became
suddenly insane.

plant.

st. Joseph, No., May 29.-Charges
OF inattention to duty have been pre-
ferred at Washington against Post
master Arthur W. Brewster, OF this

OF Chicago, is here to make an in.
vestigation. The charges are made

gagged in the practice Of his profes.
sion Of lawyer and that he has gross

Campbell was until a short time
ago the local agent for a Boston
Tontine concern, against which a
fraud order was issued by the Post
Office department. Campbell CON-
planned that the order was too strict

authorities and Is said to have blam.
cd Brewster.
Brewster's friends say the charges
instigated by his Republican political
enemies who desire to prevent his re-
appointment next year. Brewster
has made no secret Of practicing law

has been retained in q number Of i'm.
portant cases. He achieved consid.
cradle notoriety in defending Pat"

Ing, one Of the victims Of Quantrell's e
guerrillas. The only clues possessed
by the attorneys are the stories ol
the money he was supposed to have
had, and the name OF one man who
knew that he had this money.
Josiah Garsting. q mere boy, was
q member Of Captain Horace B.
Johnson's company Of cavalry oithe
First Missouri regiment. Johnson
was ambushed on the Big Blue by
Anderson's company OF guerrillas,
johnson escaped, but Garsting is
supposed to have been killed, and his
body filed with powder and blown
up. The stories that have come
down say that the boy was hated by
the guerrillas. He was known a. the
Little Red.head." He is said to
have been good.natured and Jolly.
He was known to have had q large
amount Of money. secured from
bounties or in gambling, and 1t is un.

that he had done 80 has been found.

had q brother in the war. This man
said that he had been the bunkmate
OF Josiah Garsting.
II was with him when he was kill
ed. Did you ever get any OF bis

to Garsting, but the blind man has
forgotten it. On another occasion,

man II he knew Josiah Garsting, and
abused the dead soldier. This man,
after learning that the blind organ
grinder was Josiah Garsting's broth.

Of Anderson's gang, and knew about
the killing Of young Garsting. His

Major Wilson has learned from the
