TWO WOM EN KILLED.

“Mother and Daughter Murdered by
Burglnrs In Camden.

Camden, N. J, Oct. 13. —There is still
g1 eat excitement over the murder
which occurred in this city early yes-
terday morning, when desperate bur-
glars shot and killed two women who
endeavbred to save their p1 operty from
the thieves. The murderers escaped,
and thus far have eluded capture.

Mrs. Emma Vane, aged 65 years, was
instantly killed, and her daughter, Mrs.
Sallie Shaw, expired in less than half
an hour, without regaining conscious-
mess.

The two women lived at 242 Line
street, in the lower part of Camden,
near the river front. It was about 4.30
o c’lock when the police discovered the
crime. Eli Shaw, a. son of Mrs. Shaw,
was seen at the third- story window
and was shouting for the police at the
top of his voice. The young man has
been ill with typhoid fever, and in a
statement to the police said that he
was “awakened shortly after 4 o’clock
by a pistol shot. He made his way
down stairs, and at the bottom of the
third-story stairs found his mother
bleeding and unconscious. He ran to
the window and gave the alarm.

When the police entered the house
they found Mrs. Vane sitting in a chair

 

in the sitting-room dead, with a bullet

wound in her head. Mrs. Shaw was at
once removed to the Cooper Hospital,
where she died in a few minutes, with-
'outrmaking any statement. .

The shock incident to the tragedy
has caused a relapse in the condition
of Mrs. Shaw's son, and it is feared will
result fatally. An examination of the
house showed that a rear shutter had
been forced open, and a bureau drawer
on the second floor had been ran—
sacked.

Bewurd Offered.

Mayor Wescott~ this afternoon au-
thorized the offering of $500 reward
for the arrest and conviction of the
murderers.

The police think it possible the rob-
bers knew Mrs. Vane had money in
the house, and, not knowing it had
been paid out, were searching for it
when the women came upon them.

Eli Shaw, the son and grandson, was
rigorously examined by two Philadel-
phia. detectives last night, but at the
end of their inquiry he was not de-
tained. The police say that the glass
of one of the kitchen windows, sup-
posed to have been smashed by the
burglars while gaining entrance to the
house, was broken from the inside.

5 American Racers in England.

London, Oct. e13.—-’American horsemen
and the racing1 public generally are
looking forward with unusual interest
to the result of the Cesarewitch Stakes,
to be run to—day~ at Newmarket. Apart
from the intrinsic value of the. event it
possesses a certain fascination for the
adherents of the Stars and Stripes ever
since Foxhall Keene beat a field of
eighteen in 1881, and then emphasized
his quality by picking up a penalty of
fourteen pounds and winning the Cam-
bridge Stakes two weeks later.

America makes a bold bid for a re—
vival of the Foxhall sensation this
year and is well represented in both
handicaps. The notable Yankee- bred
ones in to- day’s race are August Bel—
mont's Keenan and J. R. Keene’s St.
Cloud II. The former is a 5-year-old,
whose form previous to his exportation
from here is ,well remembered. St.
Cloud II. is a 3-year-old who ran third
to the famous Galtee More in the St.
Leger recently. He was then meeting
the Irish crack at practically even
weights, while now he has a concession
of thirty-one pounds.

'Wichita, Kan, Oct. 13.—Bishop J. J.

he is bent a little more, but his physi-
cal health is good. his eye is bright,
his mind clear, his judgment excellent
and his memory extraordinary.”

To Corner the Milk Supply.

London, Oct. 13.—The Pall Mall Ga-
zette says that a New York syndicate,
which already controls a large part of
the‘ 1‘1k supply of New York City, is

’ attem ting to raise funds in London in

trol of still more of the supply, in or-
der to establish a monopoly and dictate
the price of milk in New York and the
surrounding district.

Shel-ill Sizes Paper and Preacher.

Jersey City, Oct. 13.—Sheriff William
Heller. of Hudson County, N. J., has
instituted a libel suit aganist the Even-
ing Journal, of Jersey City, claiming
$50, 000 damages.

The declalation sets forth that the
Sheriff is charged with having dé-
liberately,
caused men to come before the
court to serve as Grand Jurors,
and while serving as such jurors
to do the dirty work of protecting
crime and criminals. 'The article, the
declaration says, has greatly injured
the good character of the Sheriff, and
leads many to whom he is unknown to
suspect him of having been guilty of
such offences.

Sheriff Heller has also instituted libel
proceedings against the Rev. A. Ken-
nedy Duff, pastor of the United Pres-
byterian Church, in West Hoboken.

The Rev. Mr. Duff, in a sermon
preached about two week,» A". openly
accused Sheriff Heller of 1 his
Grand Juries for the ex, _.-pose

of shielding gamblers and permitting

them to ply their trade. i

The League Island Dry Dock.

Washington, Oct. 13.,-—The Pennsyl-
vania delegation in Congress are much
concerned about the fate of the pro-
posed new dry dock for the League
Island yard. Representative Adams
came to Washington Monday, and was
at the Navy Department to consult
with the naval officials in regard to the
matter. He has entered vigorously in—
to the matter, and says that unless the
department accedes to the demand of
the Pennsylvania. Congressmen there
will be a big fight on hand next VVin-
ter. From all that can be learned at
the Navy Department, it is thought
that Secretary Long will not pay any
attention to the demands of the repre-
sentatives from Pennsylvania, but will
follow the advice of the dock experts
of the Navy Department, and that he
will not make any recommendation to
Congress for the location of one of the
new docks at League Island. Senator
Penrose and other Congressmen, while
in Washington recently, intimated that
they were prepared to fight hard for
the new dock, and will take the matter
into the Senate and House of Repre-
sentatives, if need be. - :1

‘ Syracuse’s Jubilee.

- Syracuse, N. Y., Oct. 13.—This city
to-day is getting over its holiday in
honor of its semi-centennial. In fact,
the city has been incorporated only
forty-nine years, seven months, but
yesterday was fixed by the authorities
as the civic holiday, as the Fall
weather would be more suitable for the
public demonstration. There was a.
grand parade, in which 15,000 persons,
representing nearly all the organiza-
tions of the city, took part.

The parade was five miles long, and
was time hours in passing the review-
ing star-l in Clinton square. Many

elalxua r9 1'rats representing the city's

revicwnigs-stand Was a living flag of

500 school children in red, white and
blue dresses.

Killed by a Tornado.

Elizabeth, N. J., Oct. 13.—A tornado
passed over this city yesterday after-
noon, and after blowing down a house
on Rankin street and killing a man,
seemed to rise in the sky and pass
away to the north. I-ts path was
marked by uprooted and broken trees,
leveled fences and damaged buildings
extending in a torturous line for near-
ly three miles from the lowlands into
the manufacturing district to the high-
er-territory of the residential section
in the northwest. The greatest dam—
age was, in the lowlands, where the
wind had an unbroken sweep across
miles of salt meadows.

—_\Vns the Turnkey Bribed?
Havana, Oct. 10.—Senor Don Manuel
Valdes Pita, judge of the district of Bel-
den, in Havana, has arrested Jailer Jose
Quintana and the guard, Ramon Gar-
cia, from whom Miss Evangelina Cosio

' y Cisneros escaped.

Ramon Garcia is the custodian of the
cell and door keys, and the judge wants
to know if the young Cuban lady did
not merely walk out of the main door,
and with the consent of Quintana and
Garcia.

Madrid, Oct. 12.——The report that Gen.
