TO HONOR A FRIEND
Women of State Order Bust of
Robert Dale Owen to
Be Made.
MISS WHITE, SECRETARY

The Robert Dale Owen Memorial as
ISOLATION of Indiana, of which Miss
Esther G. White of this city is secre-
tary, met yesterday at Indianapolis
and awarded the contract for por-
trait bust of Owen to Miss Frances
Goodwin Of New Castle. The organ
ization of the memorial association
was effected in May. 1904. In the au-
tumn of that year the women named by
the association began active canvass
for funds. This fund is now closed.
Owen is regarded as having been one
of the staunchest friends to women the
state has produced. A great deal of
his good work was done in the state
house and as a fitting testimonial his
bust will be placed in that building.
Mrs. Virginia Meredith of Cambridge
City, is member of the association.

San Bernafdino, Cal. March s.
Harry Parsons, desert miner, IS
years old, recently left San Bernardino
for Philadelphia to visit relatives

He goes back with a fortune estimated
at $1000,000, all amassed within the
last four years after a struggle with
privation for forty-eight years.
When Bull Frog was first discovered
Parsons was camped ten miles away
He threw up his claims and joined the
rush, his burro dying within a quarter
of mile of the original strike.
This misfortune compelled, him to
camp on the spot, and early in the
morning he discovered he was on g
rich ledge. Two weeks later he SOLD
his holdings for $4,000
Parsons then bought up claims, ana
recently disposed of them for sums
aggregating over a million dollars
Now he goes East to share his gains
with relatives. one, a sister. who fift!

Boston /, Policeman Shoots
Wife and Himself.
Mind Gradually Affected BY
Loss Of His Daughter.
Had a Record Of 20 Years on
Boston Police Force.

Boston. March S.-Brooding. it is said
over the death of his daughter two
years ago, Daniel D. Spillane, 81 wears.
respected police officer Of 20 wears
standing on the local force. was found
dying early today on the floor of his
little home in East Boston with a
pullet wound in his head and the body
OF his wife, Isabelle, by his side A
Eolicemans revolver still clutched in
ms hand told the story of the double
tragedy, for Spillane died an hour later
in the East Boston Relief hospital.
The death of his daughter, Agnes.
~ years old, was a severe blow to the
policeman. He seemed unable to rise
out of his sorrow and during the past
rev weeks appeared to feel his loss
greater than ever. His wife, accord
ing to the neighbors, tried to comfort
him, and while all his friends and his
immediate family realized that his
mind was gradually becoming affected
and 1t was not believed that his de-
rangemenr would lead him to murder
and suicide. ... -
AS the little neighborhood was rous-
lrg itself today two shots were heard
from the third floor of the tenement
house where the Spillanes lived Those
on the ground floor rushed up stairs
ana burst in the door. On the floor of
the kitchen. side by side, lay the bodies
ct husband and wife. Mrs Spillare
was dead but her husband was still
breathing, although unconscious. He
died an hour later at the hospital
1t was evident that the couple had
just risen and were about to prepare
the morning meal, when the tragedy
took place. The medical examiner eX-
pressed belief that Mrs. Spillane had
died almost instantly and there was no
expression of fear upon her face to in
dicate that her husband had threatened
her before he fired the fatal shot The
brief interview between the two shots
indicated that Spillane did not hest
tate to take his own life.
Spillane was born in 1858 within a
short distance of the scene of his death,
while his wife, who was a few years
younger. was also an East Boston
woman. A son, u years CT age, and
another son aged 8. are the survivors
of the family. Spillane was appointed
on the force in 1887 and for the past
Is years has been connected with the
Hanover street station where he per-
formed valuable services but never
rose above the rank of patrolman

.R0ckxa|I Texas, Negro
Lync|;hsd BY Mob.
Fully Identified BY White Woman n
He Tried to Assault.
Tied to Stake He Suffers Death
Without a Murmur.

Rockwell, Tex, March S.-After
burning Anderson Ellis, a Negro, who
attempted to assault Mrs. Arthur Nc
Kinney, at a stake in the public square
| of this little town late last night the
crowd quickly dispersed. t
Ellis was taken from the Rockwell
county Jail and securely tied to an iron
stake, then cordwood, saturated with
kerosene, was piled about him and up
on his refusal to make statement be-
yond admitting his guilt in the pres
ence of Mrs. Mckinney, who fully
identified him as her assailant the
torch was applied AS the flames licked
about him the man did not utter a cry
nor show any symptoms of losing his
nerve. He was dead in less than 10
minutes.
Mrs. Mckinney was seized in the
back yard of her home early Friday
Morning by the Negro, an employee of
her husband. She fought desperately
and the Negro fled, threatening to
murder her if she revealed his at
tempted act The search for the Negro
finally led to the farmhouse of Andrew
Clark, a Negro farmer Demand was
made to search the premises on the
supposition that the Negro Ellis was
there in hiding. Upon their refusal the
inmates were commanded to surrender
and two Negroes were seen running
from the rear of the house. Shots were
fired and one of the men, Will Clark,
son Of the farmer, was killed The 9TH
er Negro, now known to be Ellis, es-
capped for the time being but blood
hounds We're put on his track and
about S o'clock last night he was sur
rounded at a farmhouse three miles
south of Caddo Mills.
Ellis was armed and made desper-
ate resistance but he emptied his weap-
on at the posse without effect. He was
wounded twice and quickly closing in
the posse overpowered him and tied
him securely. He was then hustled off
to Jail hut when it became generally
known that he was a prisoner, deter
mined men overpoWered the jailors
and obtained the keys. The burning at
the stake quickly followed.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features Of the Days Dealings in Al
The Leading Stocks.

| New York, March 8--The stock market
today justified the prophets of a period
of neglect while awaiting the clearing Mp
of some of the obscurities in the situation.
One or two incidents of the day were
tried as motive forces for moving prices.
but they proved of little avail. Different
causes are assigned different degrees of
importance in the responsibility for the
halt in the speculation in the stock mar
ket, but the principal matter, 1t is gener-
ally agreed is the framing of the new
tariff bill. The experience in the iron and
steel trade following the cut in prices by
the principal interests is considered a
demonstration that business must wait
on the tariff bill. The scaling down Of
prices of steel products fails to revive
the demand in any effective fashion owing
to the remaining uncertainties of the new
duties. Great confidence is heard eX-
pressed in financial circles in the prosper
Gus future of business, but as large COM
mitments in stocks as are thought desir-
able in the light of present knowledge are
believed to have been made.
The bond market Is beginning to pre-
sent similar situation, the rate of ac-
tivity there showing notable cOntrac-
ton. 1t is pointed out that the heavy
loan expansion of the banks at this time
in spite of the desultory demands of bus
mess, is accounted for by the large hold
ings of new bond issues by banks all
over the country. What the effect may
be on the bond market when any effective
demand for money shall spring up is a
subject of some solicitude. A consider
able liquidation of bank holdings of such
bonds would be an implied consequence
Some influence in the stagnation must
be allowed to the activities of the Hughes
commission to investigate Exchange
methods. The attention reported to be
given at recent sittings of this commits
sion to questions of stock market manip-
ulations and wash sales has an effect
of prompting to extreme propriety of
department on the part of market organ
iZation. t.sss- ~. w. h .
The recurrence of the supreme courts
decision today was reflected in the at
tention given to Reading by the room
traders. A sharp drive against the stock
during the morning gave place to recov
cry when it became known that no de-
cision on the commodities clause was to
be handed down today. The decision
against the Missouri two-cent rate law
by the United States circuit court was
a favorable influence on stocks of rail-
roads traversing that state. The share
of the Gould stocks in this benefit was
increased by published reports of a traffic
arrangement between the Wabash and
the Union Pacific. Gold exports to South
America and to London are looked for
this week, but money rates here were
unaffected. +~F
Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par
value, $3,01O,0OO. United States bonds were
unchanged on call.
