DAVID B. HILL
PASSED AWAY
Death Came Early This Morning to
the Well Known Politician OF

State.
ILL FOR TWO WEEKS
He Was the Last of the Old Limo.
Democrats Who Once Con-
troIled The
State

ALBANY, N. Y, Oct 20.-David B.
Hill died at his residence at 3:4S
this morning after an illness of two
weeks.
Only the nurse was with him when
he died.
He was the last of the old line
Democrats who at one time controll-
ed New York.
David Bennett Hill was the last OF
the old line politicians who made
democratic history in New York
state when that party secured control
following the famous stalwart and
half breed fight which involved Presi-i
dent Arthur and Senator Rosco Conl-
lin He was for years in absolute
control of the party and his bitter
conflict with the Grover Cleveland
faction finally eliminated in Cleve-
land abandoning New York.
Hill was fighter. In the very
height of his fame he was character
lied by the close followers of Cleve-
land as "a peanut politician" Since
he retired from active participation
in politics, Hill has been better un-
derstood.

MAY HAVE sUIc1DED
Escaped After Shooting and Left
Note Which Leads to Belief
of Self De-

QUINCY, Ill.,, Oct. 2o.--Driven to
desperation by family troubles, due
largely to his own vices, Commodore
Evans last night went to his home at
GA Jersey street, which he had de-
serted two weeks ago, walked into the !
living room and fired three bullets
into the body of his wife before she
had an opportunity to escape. This
morning she lies in critical condi-
tion in st. Mary's hospital. where she
was taken Immediately after the
shooting.
Mrs. Evans received all three shots
in her body. The first bullet entered
at the base of the neck, ranged down
ward and out under the right should
shoulder, ranged downward and came
out just above the elbow. The third
entered near the point where the Sec
ond bullet escaped, and, ranging up
ward, came out near the place of en-
trance of the second, on the right
Dr. Johnson, who dressed the wounds,
stated last night that while her con-
dition is serious there are good
chances for her recovery.
From the wounds 1t is thought the
revolver used was a 32 calibre. The
range in the first shot was probably
| about four feet. and as she was sit
! ting the bullet naturally ranged down
I ward. The second shot was probably
! fired as she rose from the chair, and
the third struck her arm as she raised
| 1t in an effort to grab for the weapon
or knock it from his hand.
In the confusion Evans made good
! his escape. and up to late hour this
! morning had not been apDrehended.
Eye witnesses to the shooting say he
was not apparently drunk, and com
mitted the dastardly dee~ with cold

the premises was made by the police,
4 who were on the scene within few
minutes after the shots had been fired
/ but he was not to be found.
The work of tracing Evans which
! was begun by the police immediately
after the shooting has resulted in the
Offering of several theories, some OF
which are conflicting. The strongest
however, was that he had committed
suicide, as II was convincingly founc
that he intended to before going te
his wife's home. 1t was learned
that he has been roomins with George
Waterman, at Fourth and State
streets which district is known as
Merssman's Row When Waterman
returned home last night he found
note from Evans which said Good
bye George. You'll find key above

IN the international balloon race,
~hich started from st. Louis Monday
eyeilsng, came down in the upper
bay of 1ake Nipissing. Ontario, Can
ada. at II p. m. yesterday, 775 miles
from St Louis. They descended from
height of $4,000 feet with two and
onehalf sacks of ballast at terrific
speed. Assmann was injured when
they struck the water within a Few
hundrd feet of the shore.
They were in the basket of their
balloon in the water from II p. m.
until 1880 a. M, when the wind blew
them close to barren island inhab-
tied only by sea gulls. There they
spent the night after tying the balloon
to a tree. In the morning they hailed
two Indians. who padded them to
the shore of TIE main land, ten miles
from the nearest town, Powassan,
Ontario.
Assmann's left arm was broken in
the fall, an artery cut and his hand
sprained. The wound bled all night,
but he was feeling well when Lieut..

they were about to strike the water,

and assembled to great height again
with only two and one-nalf sacks OF

valve tie balloon whep she rose the
last time for fear that they would
be forced to come down in the water
They were so close to the shore
When they did touch the water finally
that the drag rope touched land. But
