MURDER CHARGE

Akron, Ohio, May 22.-An Indictment
charging Nelson Kepler with the mur-
der of his sweetheart, Miss Grace
Trumphour on Dec. 12, 1904, was re-
turned today by the Barberton grand
Jury. The accused is the son of one of
the most wealthy land owners in Ak
ron and is himself well to do.
On the night in question Kepler re-
tprned from an entertainment with
Miss Trumphour, escorting her to her
home. The couple entered the house,
and a few minutes later the family
were startled by pistol shot. They
found the girl dying on the parlor
floor.
Nelson explained that she had delib-
crately committed suicide, and his
story was believed until a few days
ago, when certain evidence was brought
forward which resulted in his indict-
ment. He still maintains that he is
innocent.

MOST VIOLENT SCENES
IN HOUSE OF COMMONS

London, May 23.-The most violent
scenes of disorder Witnessed in the
house Of commons for 80 years mark
ed last nights session and the spec.
tacle was presented of a member of
the cabinet vainly appealing for a
chance to be heard and finally being
compelled to take his seat amidst a
chorus of jeers and howls that drown
ed the voice of the presiding officer.
The session finally had to be ad-
journed in disorder.
The fiscal question was under con-
sideration and Colonial Secretary Lyt-
tleton attempted to make an explain
alton of the governments attitude No
sooner did he take the floor than the
opposition started to howl him
down" Time and again he began u
sentence only to be forced to cease
talking as those nearest him were un-
able to follow his remarks in the con.
fusion. After this sort of thing had
gone on for an hour the Nationalists
began to shout for the deputy speaker
to send for the police to secure order
and he finally adjourned the session
until today.
More trouble is looked for this morn
ing as the feeling is intense and there
is chance that the Balfour ministry
will be called on to face a crisis.
