In keeping tie birds in confinement in an

e
New York; Oct James HazeD
Hyde has finally decided to face the

cept a subpoena from the legislative
committee. He is expected in the city

understood he will go before the COM
mittee and make clean breast of
everything. ,~.--.
Mr.. Hyde has been visiting friends
In and near Boston recently. It is said
that he has experienced a complete
change of heart SO far as the legis-
lative investigation is concerned.
One Of the paramount questions that
will be put to Mr.. Hyde will concern
the now famous yellow dog" fund of
$6S5,000. Members of the committee
are rejoicing over the announcement
that Mr.. Hyde is coming home to face
the music and throw light on this ques-
ton, as well as many more Of kin
dred nature. -
ft4t The committee is anxious to COM
plete the work of the investigation be-
fore Jan. /, when the new legislature

fear among the members that this will
be impossible unless Jordan, Mcintyre,
Judge Andrew Hamilton and other
much wanted witnesses come back and
tell what they know. -.

SEVERAL THEORIES CURRENT.
Reason for Double Tragedy at Sioux
City, la,


Sioux City, Ia, Oct. 1.-THE mys-
terry surrounding the double tragedy in
a hack here on Sunday afternoon has
not yet been entirely solved. The
theory Of the police is that E. P. Oar
row of Lead, S. D., the mine promoter
who shot and killed his sons wife,
Mrs. w. E. Darrow of Belle Fourche,
S. D., and then killed himself, is that
Darrow was insanely Jealous Of the
woman or that he had decided because
of his financial condition that he and
the woman should die d. together.
Strength is given to the latter theory
by certain sentiments found written in
the notebooks of the couple. They had
little money, So being the total found
in the mans pockets and Is cents in
the woman's. A letter from Lead, S.
D., may have indirectly caused the
woman to lose her life and her muir
derer to kill himself. In the letter,
which was signed &c. G. T." the writer
told the woman of his love for her. -
