TRIED 'ro MURDER‘HIS sort.
The Young Man Had Thraslied His Father
for Beating His Mother.
MATAWAN, N. J.. Nov. 4,—Ben Warns
and his wife and their twenty-year-old son
Erin, lived together. ll]. Ben and his
wife auarreled frequently, and the couple
were .having a. fearful quarrel, and the
woman was having the worst of it. Erin
could not stand seing his mother so hor-
ribly abused, so he interfered in her be-
half.
His father, white with anger, grabbed
an Old fashioned shotgun which stood in
the corner, turned upon his son and snap
red it at him. Fortunately the cap did
not explode. Then Ben left the house and
roamed about the town in an aimless man-
ner. Those Who met him could see that
is was in a very dangerous mood. He
muttered to himself. After awhile he re-
turned home, where be renewed the quar-
rel with his son Erin.
Erin stood his father’s abuse for some
time. Finally his own temper got the bet-
ter of him. Erin is a powerfully built
._ oung man. He became so exasperated at
his father’s continued abus that he
grabbed hold of him and gave mm a most
tremendous thrashing. Old Ben was
crazed with anger at the drubbing. He
exclaimed: “That’s all right. I’ll get even
' with you. I’ll fill you full of shot in the
morning.”
Erin knew his father’s determined,
vengeful nature, and knew he would do
just what he said. Therefore he left his
. father’s house and staid all night at a
neighbor’s. Old Ben arose bright and
early in the morning, loaded his gun and
went out. He. walked to a secluded spot
by the roadside and lay down and hid him-
self behind the fence to await his son’s
coming.
Erin came out of the neighbor’s house
to go to work at the piano factory, where
he is employed. When he passed the
fence where his father was concealed, old
Ben reached up, poked his gun between
the palings of the fence, took a deliberate
aim at his son’s breast and pulled the
trigger.
There was a deafening report, and at
Ill? same instant Erin fell to the ground.
'L‘hs. gun contained a full charge of No. 4
shot. Old Beu,'seeing his son lying mo-
!ionless in the road, concluded he had
killed him. He coolly shouldered his gun
and walked away.
The noise of the shooting soon brought
some people to the scene, and Dr. Knecht
was immediately summoned. He found
{hat Erin had not been killed outright, as
Lois father had intended. The shot had
shattered his arm and torn a great wound
in his side. It is impossible to say wheth-
er Erin will recover or not.
Policeman Disbrow at once arrested Old
Ben, who made no effort to escape. He is
Locked up in jail to await the result of his
son’s injuries. The community is thor-
oughly aroused over this brutal attempt
at murder. Old Ben does not seem to re-
gret what he did. Erin’s mother is grief
stricken over her husband’s attempt to
murder their son.
The Holmes \Vill Case Ended.
SPRINGFIELD, Mass, Nov. 4, Judge
Knowlton, of the supreme coure,lr—<emand-
ed the will of Cyrus W. Holmes, J r., late
of Monsoon, to the probate court for
further proceedings. Frank Holmes, the
appellant from the probate court, who is
a son of the dead millionaire, has with-
drawn his appeal, and this ends the
Holmes will controversy involving the
disposition of over $1,000,000, leaving the
settlement of the estate with the probate
court.
Tim Hopkins Appeals.
SALEM, Mass, Nov. 4,—Timothy Hop-
kins and Mary K. Hopkins have filed an
appeal from the decree allowing the will
of: Mary F. S. Scarles—first, because said
document was not duly attested: second,
because at the date of the execution of said
document said Mary F. S. Searles had not
sufiicient testamentary capacity; third,
because the signature of said MaryF S.
Searles to said document was procured by
undue influence and fraud of said Edward
F. Searles and others.

Si’iLACUSE, N. Y., Nov. 4.—The presby-
Lory of Syracuse concluded its discussion

minster confession of faith, and adopted a
report of the committee on the subject,
which declares very strongly against any
further tampering with the confession.

Mar. T. S. Preston Sinking Fast.
. NEW YORK, Nov. 4.—Mgr. T. S. Preston
13 growing rapidly worse and the end is

Sensational Rumor That the Junta
May Give Egan, His Passports.
AND THEN PROGLAIM WAR.
Inptain Schley Is Wide Awake, However,
and Keeping a. Vigilant Outlook.
Montt for President—The l‘liila-
delphia Sails Well Armed.
LONDON, N ov. 4.——A private dispatch re-
:eived from Valparaiso says that the
American cruiser Baltimore is in serious
langer, and that there is reason to believe
.hat the Chilians, believing war inevita.
118. will not allow the United States to
elect their own time to declare war, but
lvill suddenly give Egan his passports and
it once attack the Baltimore, so as to have
she first blow at an advantage. '
It is not believed among the foreign res-
dents of Valparaiso that the other for-
lign men—of-war in Valparaiso harbor
would permit a. treacherous act on Cap«
Lain Schley, but would demand that fair
iotice be given him to quit Valparaiso.
Saptain Schley, however, is keeping a vig-
lant outlook.
The Tory press continuous to pour the
rials of its wrath upon the United States
.n connection with Chili, the articles be—
ng apparently intended rather for con-
sumption in Chili than in England or
America, and being well calculated to
puff that country with a great idea. of
Chili’s capacity for defeating the Ameri-
:ans.
Admiral Diontt for President.
VALPARAIso, Nov. 4.—A dispatch from
Santiago de Chili announces the opening
of the Chilian congress. The Conservative
party immediately placed Admiral Jorge
Montt in nomination for the presidency, a
selection which the Liberals are expected
to indorse. Admiral Jorge Montt is the
3hoice of all parties for president of the
republic. Montt is somewhat backward
in accepting the honor, and modestly de-
clares that he is a sailor and not a politi- .
cian. It is nevertheless the general opin-
lon that he will accede to the demand that
he accept the presidency. His acceptance
would unite all the political factions.
The papers here are blaming Minister
Egan for fomenting the trouble between
Chili and the United States.
A report reached Valparaiso from San-
tiago to the effect that Minister of Foreign
Affairs Matta has sent a. dispatch to Min-
ister Egan relative to the Baltimore affair.
[t is said to be douched in a conciliatory
tone, and to evince in every way a desire
to see that justice is done just as soon as
the inquiry is concluded.
The Philadelphia Ofi‘ for Chili.
BROOKLYN,Nov. 4.—The Philadelphia flag-
ship of the North Atlantic squadron sailed
from the navy yard Tuesday on her way to
Barbadoes, her first stopping place in the
West Indies. There she will be 1,000 miles
or so nearer Chili than she is here. The
Philadelphia when she got to sea had on
board 316 more shells than she ever carried
before. Her magazine has been enlarged,
the added ammunition being for the 6—inch
guns. She has 1,000 rounds of ammunition
for her big guns and 100 armor piercing
projectiles.
Her armament consists of twelve 6—inch
breech loading rifles, four 6-pound rapid
firing guns, four 3-pound rapid firing
guns, two 1-pound rapid firing guns,
three revolving Beannons and four Gatling
guns.
Her Officers.
The officers are Rear Admiral Gherardi,
with his personal staff, consisting of Lieu—
tenant C. H. Arnold, secretary, and Lieu-
tenant W. P. Potter, flag lieutenant; Cap«
Lain Frederick Rodgers, commanding;
Lieutenant Commander E. H. C. Leutze,
executive officer; Lieutenant A. Marix,
navigator; Lieutenants J. C. Fremont
and H. H. I-Iosl'ey; Lieutenant (junior
grade) P. V. Lansdale; ensigns, A.
A. Ackerman, \V. H. G. Bullard, D.

To complete the crew twenty-seven blue-
iackets were transferred from the island
to the cruiser. These went aboard at
'I‘ompkinsville. The crew now numbers
380 men.
Activity at the Navy Yard.
All the ships at the navy yard are pre-
paring rapidly to go to sea or to be in
readiness for orders to do so. The Petrel,
which was taking ammunition at Fort
Wadsworth on Sunday, and was on her
way to China, was ordered back to the
navy yard by a. dispatch from Washington.
The Bennington is ready to put to sea.
She was to have gone to Gardiner’s bay
for targets, but when the Chilian trouble
developed she also was ordered to stay at
her dock.
The Concord will be fit for business in a
short time. when she has a new steering
quadrant.
The Charleston is reported to be on her
way from China to the W'est Indies.
It is plain that before long there will be
a very strong fleet of United States ships
in the West Indies or somewhere farther
south.

DENVER, Nov. 4.——The principal actors
in the Turkey creek train robbery of the
Rio Grande express, near Canon City, a
