New York, July 3.-"Lookout for q
man with a suit case full of money"
This is the message that went to every
detective bureau in America today,
following the discovery of the dissp-
pearance of Chester B. Runyan and $97,
1877 from the Windsor Trust Company.
Runyan was paying teller, and before he
walked out of the office last week, be
was seen fumbliDg with a suit case.
Then Runyan shook hands with ell
his friends and hurried out with the
suit case. He has not been seen since.
When he did not resppear this week,
the officials did not suspect anything
serious WAS wrong. But when another
man was put at his desk it was learned
the money was missing. Runyan received
a good salary and to all appearances was
well satified and happy.
Late this afternoon John Alvin Young,
president OF the Windsor Trust Compa-
ny, announced that his concern had Of
fered 50, 500 reward for Runyan's arrest.

street last night by members of the
Black Hundreds, the reactionary fight

made by the police to either protect the
helpless victims or to arrest the mis-

carrying arms, went through the street
firing unfortunately at the men,
women and children. Two Jews were
killed and fifteen were wounded 10 the

Hong Kong, JAY !. -Horrible tor
lures have been practiced upon band

ing the recent uprisings near WOngkong
who were captured by imperial troops.
The local project to whom the prisoners
were surrendered determined to force the
insurgents to divulge the details of the
plot and name the leaders in the uprising.
All efforts to make the prisoners speak
failed, however. Finally when other
methods had been exhausted boiling
rosin was thrown on the. bodies Of the
prisoners, but even this did no: have the

Those members of the administration
who have conteuded ever since the Knox
BON took definite shape that the Penn
sylvania Senator wishes to win the sup
port of those elements of his party that
are Opposed to the Capitalization of power
and that he wishes to pose as the anti
Roosevelt candidate for the nomination,
believe that their opinions we're confirm
ed by Senator KuOx's speech at New
Haven on Tuesday. 10 the course of
his remarks the Senator explained why
he did not care to be clsssed as Roose-
velt type. He believes in restricting the
efi)rts of the government in the corpora
ton regulation line to the powers con-
ferred by the constitution, and is willing
to let the States exercise the rights con-
ferred upon them by the same authority.
Senator Knox does not indorse the sweep
ing programme of trust regulation out
lined by the administration, and which
encrosches on the rights of the States.
Ia the opinion of Washington politicians
the Senator has made shrewd test. He
is not so far, though, out of line with the
Presidents views to be known SIS an
enemy of the Roosevelt policies. He
rendered valuable aid to the President
in the drafting and passage of some of
the most important reform lave OF the
past four years. He is now in 3 position
to .ake advantage of what many claim TO
be s reversal Of public opinion on the
subject Of federal regulation of trusts.
He is, says one, getting in position to
lead the rev movement.

The government has aimed blow at the

Of Chicago, on instructions issued at Wash

Circuit Court TO restrain from the further is

WEDNESDAY EVENING. JULY 8, 1857.

TOMORROW will be the Fourth OF
July. the anniversary of the birth OF the
republic Of the United States, the most
important event that ever took place
in the western hemisphere. One hun
bred and twenty-six years ago this
c,untrv WAS in lis swaddliDg clOibe-
battling for existence against George Ill.
and his armies. Determined men "ho
haa long suffered from injustice at ihs
hands of the British crowd, but who
had no desire to sever their relations to
the mother country, had been at last
driven By desperation to take their lives
into their own hands and declare the
thirteen colonies free and independent
States. Il took nerve and true patriot
ism for such a course, but none Ia
tered aud the great Declaration OF It.
dependence was signed by bold aud IN
ialterlug hauds. Committing their country
to God, they entered upon seven years
struggle, which finally eliminated at
Yorktown with victory perching upon
the continental banners. The first
battle for freedom had been fought and
won. but the British had no serious in-
teRtiou of reliuquishing claims upon
their North American possessions. Be
fore tvacuating Boston they nailed the
British flag to pole and after greasng
the same the men war sauted it, while
the men Oh the ships yelled back to our
foreiathers ave will get you yet But
a few years elapsed before the British
lion was again intently gazing upon
this country. Insults followed insults
until the United States was compelled
to fight the second battle for ex-
isience, and in the treaty that followed
that conflict the issue upon which
the United States declared war-denying
the authority of Crest Britain to stop
vessels belonging to this country on the
big seas, to search them and impress
Americans into their service-was
left open and was not finally adjusted un-
til the Mason and Slidell affair in 1861.
The United States, however, has con-
tnued to grow aud prosper nOtwith-
standing the envy of European poten-
tates, and today is recognized among the
frst-class powers of the earth with
territory extending from the frigid zone
to the tropics and spreading from the
Atlantic TO the Pacific. Blessed by
nature in that nearly everything for the
sustentation of its people can be grown
within lis own domains with surplus
that helps to feed millions elsewhere, the
United States has much for which TO be
thankful, although, like other countries,
there is a spirit of restlessness among a
large percentage OF its polyglott popula-
ton of eighty-odd millions which at times
causes uneasiness. The Fourth of July
has long since ceased to appeal to the
many as it did half century ago from
the fact that the millions who have from
time to time taken up their abode in
the United States are not interested
in our institutions, and take but little
part in the celebration of the Fourth of
July. To the true Americans. however,
i. is the greatest of all national holidays,
and as such will be appropriately observ-
ed not in unseemly ebuliliOns, but 10 due
expressions of honor to the fathers of
the republic who have transmitted to us
n great country.

FARMER RAN
AMUCK WITH AXE
Crazed Michigan Man Kills Three
Of His Family.
WAS SHOT DEAD BY NEIGHBoA

Nunica, Mich. July 22.-Henry Scut-
oheon, a farmer about so years old,
living near this village, ran amuek
with an axe, killing his invalid son,
his wife and her foster father Scut-
cheon was later shot by Henry Nc
Clellan. a neighbor, whom the crazed
murderer had also attacked.
The dead are: Henry Scutcheon,
Polly Scutcheon, his wife; William
Scutcheon. his 1S.year.old son; George
Aiming, Mrs. Scutche6n's foster father
The Scutcheon farm house had ap-
parently always been a happy home,
except for the cloud which the sons
invalidism cast over the family. With
no warning so far as is known, Scut-
cheon suddenly murderously attacked
his SOD with an axe. He crushed the
boys head frightfully. When his wife
interfered he turned on her and pur-
sued the frightened, screaming wo-
man from their house 70 the road,
where he knocked her down with his
weapon He then rushed back to the
house and murdered his foster father
in-law. Next he tried to destroy him
self The maddened man gashed his
throat and wrists with razor and
took some paris green. His wounds
did not weaken him and the poison did
not take immediate effect. Axe in hand
he returned to the road, where he had
felled his Wife a few moments before.
The first blow did not kill her, and
she had been carried into the house
of Henry Mcclellan, nearby. McClel-
Ian rushed to another neighbor's for
help.
When Scutcheon found that his wife
was in the Mcclellan home alive, he
smashed a window with his axe jump
ed through it and again attacked her
This time he crushed her skull. He
then left the Mcclellan home and re
turned to his own house, but when
Mcclellan returned from his search
for help the crazed man came out and
started over toward him, saying, 81
want you. too"
Z will shoot If you come across the
road" replied Mcclellan, who had
armed hinself with a shotgun. De
spite the warning, Scutcheon came
across with murder in his glance. Nc
Clellan thereupon shot him dead.
