IMPRISONED BY BULL
For Twenty. Four Hours an Illinois
Family Couldn't Leave the HOuse.

Family Couldn't Leave the House.
Alton, ILL.,, Aug. 10.-A bull held Will
liam Kyle, his wife and two children
prisoners in their house on the Job
ranch, two miles from East Alton,
from last night until this afternoon,
when party of men, summoned from
Alton by telephone, released them.
The animal became so savage that it
was necessary to throw him and put
a ring through his nose. He was
then tied to horse power grist-
mill
Late last night the bull tore the
ring from his nose and overturned
the milk, which weighs about two
tons. A heavy wagon stood before
the gate of the houc, lot. The bull
demolished this with his horns. He
reached the gate next. The family
saw the bull coming and rushed into
the house and closed the doors. Once
in the night Mrs. Kyle tried to escepe
from the house in order to procure
neighbors to drive the animal away.
AS soon as she left the house, how
ever. the bull saw her. He pinned
her against the side Of the house.
She dropped between the wide horns
to the ground unhurt

BIG PERsUADER
Will Try to Get Gigantic Cam
paign Fund for Instruct
ing the Voters

Chicago, Aug. 10-Ways and means
of financing the democratic national
campaign were discussed at length
today at meeting of Chairman Mack
Of the national committee, Governor
Charles N. Haskell of Oklahoma,
treasurer of the committee; Col.
Moses C. Wetmore of st. Louis,
chairman of the finance committee
and Millard F. Dunlap of Illinois,
former treasurer of the national COM
mittee. No definite decision was
reached and the question of raising
fund of sufficient proportions to
maintain an effective three months
campaign, will be brought up for So
luton at meeting of the various
heads of the subcommittee tomor-
row.
Neither Gov. Haskell nor Col. Wet
more have formed any definite plan
for raising campaign fund, al
though both are confident that the
committee will not lack funds to
meet all legitimate expenses of a
lively presidential fight. While the
suggestion has been made that q fund
of half million dollars would be
sought, both Gov. Haskell and Col.
Wetmore declared that no definite
sum had been settled upon. After an
informal meeting today. Gov. Haskell
said:
Il have every confidence that the
committee will obtain all the funds
needed to wage hard fight for Mr..
Bryan, though as yet no plan has been
determined upon. have made no
appeals for money, but have already
received $4,000 which came unso-
licited. No definite sum has been
fixed for fund which in our party
must be collected from the plata peo-
ple"
Col. Wetmore said he would call q
meeting of the finance committee at
once to devise some way to secure
money
"This is democratic year." said
Col. Wetmore last night, "and the re-
publicans will need dollars where we
need dimes. OF course the republi-
cans will get their fund from corpora
tions, multimillionaires and federal Of
fee holders, Just as they always have
done, but we must get our money from
those who have but little to spare, NO
matter how willing their spirit may
be. II we can get money enough to
run good campaign, Bryan will be
elected. Raising money Is no easy
task and II any one covets my Job and
thinks he can do better. he can have

Winnipeg. Aug. 10.-The. nrst oct
Of violence since the @. p. r. strike
was instituted in Winnipeg. occurred
last midnight when almost all the
windows in the passenger coaches
and several panes Of glass In other
cars were broken by stones hurled
through them by unknown persons
in the st. Boniface yards across the
Red river from here. The passen-
ger train was sent to the yards to be
turned and the missiles were thrown
while the train was In motion and on
the return trip to Winnipeg. Many
stones az large as mans fist were
found on the floor Of the cars. The
trainmen say that the sound Of the
crashing glass was all over In min
ute, showing that several persons
were implicated In the act. Beyond
this the greatest interest manifested
by the strikers Is In the actions Of
the company. and at all hours the
main entrances to the yards are sur
rounded by men who take note Of all
that goes on within. Three strikers
entered the yards yesterday and. were
promptly arrested by the special
police and escorted to the police sta
ton. This morning they were re-
leased by the magistrate with q warn
ing. This morning twelve workmen,
who had only started work yesterday
walked out Of the yards, remarking to
the strikers pickets at the gates
that they did not propose to remain
Imprisoned like conyicts."

accepted. Perhaps there was a little
listlessness in the acceptance, but
Cole didn't notice it. Nor did he no.
tice anything unusual at the we'd

And the wife seemed happy when

forges his wife kissed him good bye,
and then went about her work in the
usual manner.
A few hours later the mother heard
q scream. She ran to her daughters
house and found Carrie lying on her
bed, her lips stained and burned from
the acid.
AZ soon as possible Dr.. ]. H. Rob
inson Of Fifteenth and Keningston
avenue was called. But, before he
arrived Observation-Disclosures had come
and 1t was impossible to save the
girls life. IS.
Two notes were found. one Of which

Chicago. Aug. 10.-Such returns as
were available, early today. in addi-
tion to those obtained last night, con-
firmed the Republican nomination OF
G. s. Deneen for governor and gave
the Republican endorsement for
United States senator to Albert j
Hopkins. From the figures at hand
which are however, incomplete the
majority vote of Deneen over Yates
is probably not far from 10000 to
$4,000. The vote for the United
States senator shows that Hopkins
has about $4,000 plurality over Foss
but 1t is not certain that this estimate
will hold.

ZOLA ROMANCE
The Loyalty Of Wife Did Not Stop
Even at Murder.

New York. Aug. 10.-A remarkable
series Of letters, turned over to the
Newark police today by the woman
who confessed smilingly yesterday
that she had killed q man, made q
Zola-like romance out Of what had
seemed q commonplace shooting af-
fair. The woman was Mrs. Josephine
aAmpre, who lived with her husband,
Her y1stim was Michael Martello, q
married man who dwelt in the same
house. She shot him because TOR
months he had begged her to leave
her husband and run away with
him.
Il must kiss you; I must embrace
you" the man exclaimed at her win
dow, after she had many times re-
pulsed him and told him to go to
his wife and babies.
Wait, must attend to my child"
she said, and going into her room she
get q revolver. When Martello at
tempted to embrace her she shot him
through the heart. Her husband,
known to be jealous Of the man, was
arrested, but he had an alibi and was
released. The police had no idea Of
who else would have done the shoot
ing. Mrs. Amore might have been
safe had she kept silent. But she
surrendered herself with an air Of
pride and then gave the police the
letter she had written weeks before
the shooting:
The Letter to the Wife.
The first letter was to Rosa Mar
tello, her victims wife, and In part
read as follows:
Dear Rosy: know that at the first
blow you will have great pain when
you read the terrible news. But what
could you want, dear friend? Could
I leave my faily as your husband
wished? You know have always
loved you and esteemed you like a
sister.
Gould ever consent TO your nus
bands wishes? No. never and never.
II beg you to tell all my relatives
what have always done when you
and your husband were angry and all
the favors I have done Tor you both.
Conscientiously. I want you to de-
fend me with the public because you
are the only one that knows I have
loved you as a sister and tried to
make you peaceful and happy in your
family.
"Your aftectionate friend,
Josephine"
The second letter was addressed to
Dominica Valentine, who is q wealthy
Newark contractor and a brother Of
Mrs. Amore. 1t read:
my Afectionate Brother: When
you hear the news I am certain you
will feel like / do. On, dear brother,
only God can tell how many sacrifices
I have made for this infamous human
fiend, Michael Martello. How ever
could 60 with such man who has
such good family and married like
myself.
"You could not imagine. dear broth
or, all the means used to make him
understand the wrongs he was doing.
I even knelt before him like the Mag
daline knelt before our Lord Jesus
Christ. begging him to leave me In
peace with by family and. children.
I beg you to love Carmine and protect
mo before the public because ] have
done nothing wrong. Your affection-
ake sister,
Josephine"
A The last letter was an explanation
by Mrs. Amore to her husband. Il
would seem from parts Of this and
certain parts Of the other letters
that she did not expect to live after
killing Martello. The woman was
charged with murder In the first de-
gree and was held without bail ~
