soon had reached the victims. Hundreds
of persons passing in carriages and au-
tomobiles stopped. Among them was

the bodies of the boys and pronounced
both dead. From the positions in which
the bodies were found the boys had been
working on their hands aud knees and

In western city lives prominent

Thomas Murray. The present home of

identity was made known by him TO the
court after search which covered two
continents and took several years had
been abandoned. Throwing himself upon
the mercy of the prosecutor. Taylor in
vited an inquiry into his life for the past
quarter of a century. This was made,
and it proved so satisfactory that former
Supreme Court Justice Clearwater, who,
as district attorney. obtained the indict-
ment against Taylor, declared that it
would be gross injustice to reeval the
mans new name Justice w. c. Howard
of Troy, sitting in the Supreme Court,
dismissed the indictment against Taylor
after il had been shown that all possible
witnesses against the defendant were
dead. Murray was killed at Port Even,
Ulster county, on an election day, when
there had been a riot at the polls. Tay-
Tor and Murray were unfriendly. They
belonged to opposing political parties and
loved the same girl. On election day they
quarreled at the polling place and then
fought on the street. A brick with which
Murray's skull was cracked is still in the
Office of the district attorney. Several
days later Murray died and Taylor fled.

ELECTRIC CAR KILLS FIVE.
Crashes Into Funeral Carriage Occu-
pied by Women.

Four women ard the driver of the
funeral carriage i'll which they were
returning to Chicago from Oak Ridge
cemetery were killed Wednesday after
noon at West Madison street and the
Butterfeld road, near Bellwood, when
Il train of the Aurora, Elgin & Chi
cago Electric Railroad crashed into the
miles an hour. The carriage was cut
in twain and the rear half, with two
of its victims. was carried 500 feet
along the track. The forward portion
was hurled to the side of the track,
the driver leaping from the box, but
receiving fatal injuries. The two wom-
en- who had occupied the forward seat
were Killed instantly. The others were
dead when found under the wreckage,
with which their bodies had been car
ried by the motor car of the train.
Several carriages were in line on the
return trip from Oak Ridge cemetery,
that which was wrecked being the sec
ond. The one preceding it passed the
tracks in safety at the crossing. The
driver, Newman. evidently had no real
iZation of the speed of the train which
he saw approaching west-bound. He
whipped his horses and they plunged
across the track. To the onlookers in
carriages following the car seemed to
leap forward as the horses reached the
track.
There was n crash and shrieks from
the occupants and an outcry from New
man. The train, with half the carriage
propelled in front of the Spot6r car,
appeared TO pass in flash, as New
man and two OF the victims were hurled
in the air.
F. As the train sped by, mourners
poured from the other carriages and
congregated at the scene. rs the train
was stopped. the wreckage of the car
riage was seen to be in flames, due. it
is believed, TO ignition from the third
rail.
Newman, when found thirty feet from
where the carriage had been struck,
was unconscious, and remained so un-
til he died.

Sect Is Carrying on Well-Directed
Campaign in New York.
Mormon missionaries are carrying on
an active propaganda in New York City
and are openly attempting to proselyte
members of other religious denomina-
tons. Eight of these missionaries are
now In the greater city, half being on
Manhattan Island and half in Brook
Ign. Many of them are young men Of
engaging manners and impressive adj
dress and are making a house
canvass in some quarters. Especially
is this so on the upper West Side. They
do not content themselves with trying
to induce persons of little education to
take up the Mormon faith, but are go
ing to the homes of influential citizens
The fact that many of the Protestant
churches send canvasserS from house
to house gives these missionaries a
chance of being heard, and they do not
at first dwell upon the peculiar tenets
of their faith. These jealous disciples
are well educated and able to converse
intelligently on wide range of topics.
After they have obtained permission to
leave one of the books they say they
will call later after there, has been an
opportunity of reading it. In addition
to these regular Mormon missionaries
there are many Mormons from Utah in
New York, who came here to educate
their children.
AS the result of all this effort there
is perceptible increase in the Mormon
membership in the metropolis. For

of wOrshipers in Gotham, but now 1t
has a membership CT over 200
