law of the elder Fritz, who afterward
sent a bullet through “his own brain.
He 'died last evening. _
Garbach is a cigar 'manufacturer,
whose home is on Norris" street, near
by. A dispute growing out ofbusiness
relations is said to have caused the
crime. Frederick Fritz was the senior
partner of the firm of Frederick Fritz
& Sons. The business is at Fourth and
Leithgew streets. The establishment
is large. and the father and sons are
well to do.
The crime occurred in the residence
part of the building, which fronts on
Fourth street._ Garbach visited the
Fritz residence this morning. He was
in the place Some time. Finally the
neighbors heard angry words and other
sounds of an altercation. .These were
followed by cries.
' Neighbors rushed, into the building.
but before they reached the scene Gar-
ba’ch was seen to hurriedly leave the
place. He ran directly to his own
home, about a mile away. and there
shot himself; Fritz and his son were
lwiaiiedly removed to"the.Episcopal‘
_..Hcapital, where it was found that both
had been shot through the right tem-
ple. Garbach \vasralw'removed to the
same institution. He had shot himself
through the right temple.
CHAOS IN'AUSTRIA.
The Political Situation Is So Strain-
ed That Bloodshed May Result. .
I London, Nov. 10.—A letter received
here from Vienna says that the pub-
lished reports of the political situation
in the Austrian Empire convey no ade-
quate idea of the chaos prevailing.
“Baden! must go,” is the general war
cry ‘now. and his downfall is consid-
ered inevitable. regardless of the out-
come of the present fight between the
Germans and the Czechs. The letter
adds: '
“No one can foresee how it Will end.
If. the Germans win there may be
bloodshed in Bohemia}. and if the B0-
hemians are persistent the Germans
will have to fight With their sharpest
weapons to assert their prerogative
and save the Austro—Hungarian dual-
ity. The danger, however, lies in the
active party in the Reichsrath, which
openly declares for Prussia, and wants
to see the former German provinces, as
Bohemia, handed to_I the Hohcnzol-
terns.”
5‘2 Killed Himself with Gus. ‘
I:
New York, Nov. 10.—After writing a
letter to his wil‘c,.Ernest” Sharland, 23
years old, of New orleansLLa” com-
mitted suicide yesterday by turning on
the gas in his rooms at the \Vailon
apartment house; 509 Fifth _ avenue.
From what he wrote it would seem
that business depression was the cause
of. his self—destruction, but friends who
have knewn him for aldng time say,
that he killed himself because of quar-
rels with lliswl‘amily.‘ He had been enl-
ploycd in New Orleans by the Wash-
ington Life Insurance Company. of this
city, but had left its employ about a
month ago; Sinai-land {was a stepson
of Dgulton, the manufacturer of the
famous English chinaware which beats
that name.

Full Report oftho Case.
. . .
In every case of chronic nasal c:-
tarrh the lining membranes of the
nose are, thickened and of a deep red
color, while the superficial veins are
swollen and throbbing. In nearly.
grayish color, and in not a few there
is actual ulceration, -with more or' less
loss of substance. The. secretion is,
thick, tough,'of a greenish character,
and when the destruction is very rapid,
of ajfetid odor. ‘L'arge collections bf
dried secretion may be'adherent to the
middle and sides of the nose. When
imflammation has existed a. long time
and ulceration has taken place, puri-
form matter is secreted and drops into
the throat. This is one ~of the most. _
dangerous features of the complaint,
and this matter often descends .into the
stomach, causing frequent vomiting
and a general derangement of health,
and finally ends in catarrh of the
stomach.
As proof that this disease can be
easily and quickly cured-,ncte the 'fol-
lowing South Norwalk testimony: John
H. Toothill, 29 Ann street, says: “I'
have had the catarrh for some time and
have tried many remedies, but get
more relief from California Catarrh
Cure, which I got at Plaisted's, than
from anything elseII ever have used.
The one bottle has already removed ef-
fectually many of the most trouble-
some symptoms.” Sold by all drug-
gists at. 500; three times as much, One
dollars. Get California. Catarrh Cure,
take no substitute; for thousands“ of
people in the Norwalks say that noth-
ing else gives such great relief, and
nothing else will. cure. .
VJADE HAMPTGN’S LAST REPORT.
Loy" “'ater Mnrk of RW)’ Build-
ing: Reached Lost Your.
“'ashington. Nov. 10.—Before Gen.
“’ade Hampton retired from the office
of Commissioner of Railroads he filed
with Secretary Bliss his annual report
for the year ended on Sept. 30 which
has just been made public. He notes
that the long period of depression in
railroad business reached its lowest
point in 1896. when the falling off in
passenger traffic and demoralization
in freight rates, together with the de-
crease in volume of business, most se-
riously affected the earnings.
“The low water mark," the Commis-
sioner continues, ”was reached in rail-
way construction, and during the year
thirty-four roads, with 5,431 miles of
road. passed into the hands of the
courts, and fifty-eight others. which
i:.".d been previously placed in receiv-
ers‘ hands. were sold at, foreclosure."
Regarding the settlement of the Union
Pacific debt. Gen. Hampton says:
"I have, in each one of my previous
reports. recommended the adjustment
of the indebtedness of the Pacific rail-
roads to the Government through. the
pointed by the President, and it has all
could be obtained if all the compan~
ies, particularly the Union and Cen-
tral Pacific,,could be negotiated with
at the same time, and possibly in the
same way, than could be accomplished
by settling with them at ‘diiferent
times and on a different basis. I'am
not disposed, however, to question the
wisdom of the course pursued by the
Department of Justice in the case of
the Union Pacific Railway, and viewed
from a- financial standpointfit would
seem to be about the'best thing for the
Government to do under the circum-
stances. The main objections which
have been urged against this method
of settlement have come from strong.
advocates of Governmenti~-ownership..
or of operationunder Government su-
pervision. .I have always regarded
this as not only a doubtful, but a dan-
gerdus experiment, which would. in-
volve the Government in» enormous ex-
pense and would in all probability re-
sult disastrouslyfl.’ ,

IN LEAGUE WITH SATAN.
A Murderer Mukeol‘hls Astonishing
IIPIe’a for Defeuse. ‘
Dove, N. 11., Nov. 10.—'—Hls co'mpact
.vith Satan Was witnessed by a clergy-
nan, Joseph E. Kelly said yesterday,
when his trial for the murder of Cash-
er Joseph A. Stickney, of the “Great
Falls National Bank, in Somersworth,
leg-sin before the Supreme Court.
This astonishing statement, upon
which the defense will base- a. plea of
insanity, was made to the prisoner’s
:ounsel, Ja mes Ryan, Jr., of this place.
“Ever since I was 11 years old," he
as said, “Satan has been my constant
:ompanicn. And the agreement with
him will not run out until January 15,
1899. I will be 25 years old then.. My,
first...act under,the agreement was to
steal" a watch, andII wasimpelled to
deeds worse and worse until 'I killed
the-old man in the doorway of his bank
and took all the money in sight.”
Many insahity experts have been’reA
‘talned by the defense, and a doctor
who treated Kelly for some injury to~
the head years ago has been subpoe-
naed as a witness.
A LAND OF SKELETONS.
Famine Reduces. Men to BoIIneu in
~ Archangel. I
St. Pétersburg. Nov: 10.—-A terrible,
famine is ravaglng t e Province of
Archangel, a. Government of European
Russia, in the extreme north..%extend-
ing from the Ural Mountains on the
east to Finland on the west. Many
have already died of starvation.
The people wander about, reduced al-
most to, skeletons, their heads swollen
to the size of buckets. Tea is _the only
means of subsistence.
The Province of Archangel has an
area. of nearly two hundred and ninety
thousand square miles, but it is one
continuous nut and almost an unvaried
scene of desolation, especially in the
most northern parts, where the ground
remains Itrofen nine months in the
ear. ,
yinmost the only crops raised an
hemp,, flax, potatoes and some rye,
neither the climate nor ‘the soil admit-
ting of the cultivation of oats or wheat.
The‘tlmber forms the principal wealth.
In spite of'these unfavorable condi-
tions, the province has a population of
about threehundred thousand souls. .
