Flung Into Lake, Murderer Admits
Crime and Asks to be Punished.

Escanaba, Mich.-Trembling with
terror, Alvin Lindquist on Saturday
gave himself up to the sheriff, con-
Tossing the murder Of Alvin Fogarty.
A month ago Alvin Fogarty disap-
peared. There was no clew to his
whereabouts. But no suspicion of
foul play attached to Lindquist and
two old men were arrested. He might
never have been charged with the
crime had he not accused himself.
He flung his victims body into Lake
Michigan, where it drifted for days.
Friday a strong wind sprang up. The
body during twenty-four hours drift
ed five miles. And Saturday when
Lindquist opened the door of his hut
on the lake front there was the dead
Fogarty on the beach in front of his
cabin. HE followed me-" Lindquist

but he followed me along the lake.
For five miles he followed me. And

shot DOWN
PRESIDENT RAMON cAcEREs
SET UPON BY AssAsslNs As
HE WAS RETURNING HOME.
Slain Executive HImseif Killed Die
tator Hereaux In 1899, and the
Latter's Relatives Have Since
Been Plotting Revenge.

Washington-President Ramon Ca
ceres Of the Dominican republic was
shot Monday afternoon as he left the
house of Leonde Vasquez at Santo
Domingo City, where he had made a
call. He died half an hour later In
the American legation, whittier he
was taken. The first shots OF his as
| sailants, Luis Tejara and Jaime
Mote, Jr., according to advices re-
ceived at the state department, were
not effective.
The wSunded president first sought
| shelter in a stable adjoining the
| American legation, but his assailants
pursued him thither, and, closing in
upon him, fred more shots.
Friends of President Caceres drag
ged him in a dying condition to the
American legation, where he died at
$50 o'clock.
President Caceres' stormy career Is
recalled by officials here who are IA
miliar with the peculiar Dominican
temperament. 1t is remembered that
the president himself was the slayer
of the ~redoubtable old dictator, Her
eaux, in 1899. 1t is likewise known
that relatives of the former president
always cherished a desire that the
death of their kinsman be avenged
1t is pointed out that, irrespective
of the cause of the assassination, Sc
rious complications may arise if am
bilious politicians seize upon the dis
turbed condition of the country to
further their own ends.

QUARREL ENDS N TRAGEDY
Moab Man Kills Daughter and son-'n-
Law, Following Quarrel at . Dance
Afterwards Desyins Posse.

Moab Utah-This vicinity is highly
wrought up over one Of the
startling tragedies In its history. Bar
ricaded In his ranch house after Kill
ing J. e. Dubois, his sonin-law, n
his W daughter, John E. Brown a
rich cattleman and commissioner OF
Grand county, defed the officers to
arrest him, for twenty hours, but nm
ally surrendered.
The tragedy occurred as Brown n
his wife and Dubois and his wi1e
were returning home from a dance.
The Brown and Dubois ranches are
about two miles from Moab. n
two families rode to the dance peace
fully enough, but after the dance Mr..
and Mrs. Dubois refused to ride home
with the Browns. Brown, in a frenzy,
drove to his ranch and obtained two
rifles. Followed by his wife, who, 1t
is believed, tried to restrain him, he
ran down the road to meet his SON.
in-law and daughter.
At a point about a quarter of a mile

in-law and demanded a duel, offering
him one of the rifles. Dubois refused
to fight and attempted to argue with
his father-in-law. Brown, however,
refused to listen to reason and pro
ceeded to murder Dubois. AS Brown
took aim his daughter leaped in front
of the rife and was instantly killed,
Jumping over her body, Brown fired
several shots at Dubois, leaving him
fatally wounded in the road.
Brown and Dubois were partners in
the cattle business and it is said
that they constantly disagreed about
business matters. What caused the
final and fatal quarrel, however, is a
mystery.
Brown is an old cattleman and has
long bore a reputation as a gun
fighter. He is the type of men &C
customed to settle their disputes by
primitive methods. Still there are
some who think that Brown had be-
come mentally deranged before the
shooting. When telephoning to
friends after the shooting, Brown de-
clared that he had accidentally shot
and killed his own daughter, but that
he had intended to kill her husband,
and advised his friends not to try to
take him, Is he would kill the first
man who endeavored to enter his
house.
