From the .Vew York World.
i*3v Heavens! You sball not return to
r. I have sworn to kill both you

i r . xolamation came frivn Philip Ohn
a German, and u> addressed Mrs.
.rtne Rartb, with whsi he l:ad eloped
i,,... .errnany, aud who was abut t-> take
' .t > tiie lathe, laud aboard the steam

\ n ment later Ohnacker pullt-d his re
r>,r an i fired at Mrs. Barth, killing her
• ‘tart y. He then turned the smoking
K j>ea upon himself and fired. His life
h 1 v was picked up ou the steerage deck
0 f the Eider.
The big ocean greyhound Eider, sailing
Eider the banner of the North German
p; vd Steamship Company, was moored
t inside of her pier in Hoboken yesterday,
we bell o’clock p. in.i had just been
Honied. Another half hour and the mag
dfieent ocean racer would start on her
ryage across the Atlantic. The pier was
jr-.vded with men, women and children.
Isere was a big rush for the gangways
baling from the pier to the main deck
[hard the steamer. The saloon and
•r nienade decks were alive with passen
ters who stood along the ship’s railing
itstching the scenes about the wharves.
N -nr the forward gangplank at the upper
end of the wharf was a fine-looking man,
*ll a weather beaten face, aud wearing
i Uavy blonde mustache and beard. He
*ss dressed like a German farmer
from the field. He wore heavy top hoots
aid a suit of dark clothes. His face
hid a very sad expression. He appeared
imitated.
SCENE OF THE SHOOTING.
Next to him and nearer the gangplank
*as a comeiy woman. Mho was of medium
s. had dark brown hair, prominent feat
ures and deep blue eyes. There was nothing
shout her to attract special attention. She
looked as though she were about 30 years of
age. Her cheeks were very much flushed.
She was holding on with her right hand to
the ship's gangway, about to board the
Eider. She, too, acted as though she were
laboring under great excitement.
The man was Philip Ohnacker, a native
of (iimbheim, Germany, about 35 years old.
The woman who stood by his side was Mrs.
Katharine Barth, also a native of Gimb
heim, Germany, a married woman, who
had deserted her husband and her two little
children a few weeks ago and run away
from Germany with her lover, the man
who was her companion at the Bremen pier
yesterday.
The pair had been standing at the foot of
the ship's gangplank for about five minutes,
engaged in calmest conversation. Passen
gers who wont up the plank and passed the
pair noticed that they were quarreling.
Ohnacker swore at the woman. He told her
teat she must not go back to Germany. She
seemingly paid no attention to what her
former lover was saying. She let him talk
ur;:. he got tired. Then sho turned toward
him, remarking that she had made up her
mind to go back to her husband and chil
dren, whether Ohnacker liked it or not.
"Well, now, we’ll see about that,” said
Ohnacker.
The woman started to go up the gang
plank.
The man tried to stop her. She gave him
hard look. He stepped aside, allowed
Mrs. Barth to pass him, and then followed
her up the gangway.
As soon as they had reached the deck
Mrs. Barth started for the after companion
way. She then went below decks to the
Steerage. Ohnacker still followed her.
They had just reached the steerage deck
when Ohnacker began to abuse the woman.
He told her that she had ruined him, that
st.e had been the cause of his downfall, and
that she was responsible for his Dresenco in
this country. Mrs. Barth insisted that he
hod no business to elope with her, aud that
everything would have gone all right had
he not grown tired of her.
Then it was that Ohnacker uttered his
bloodcurdling threat. The woman tried to
laugh. Ohnacker lifted his pistol and the
murderous shot was tired.
HOW THE WOMAN DIED.
The woman, ns soon as she saw the weapon
in her lover’s hands, threw up her arms and
littered a cry. She stood facing the furious
man. Before she had time to turn around
mid flee Ohnacker had fired at her. The
bullet had been well aimed and entered her
bead just above her left eye. The poor
woman fell to the deck and died instantly.
Ohnacker saw his victim fall. He looked
it her for a second, as though he was satis
fied of his work, and tnen, turning the re
v.ilver; toward himstlf, hold it close behind
bis left ear and fired. He dropped upon the
deck. He was dead, too.
The smoking revolver was still in the
man’s left hand when numerous passengers
who had witnessed the Beene rushed over
toward where the two bodies were lying,
the place where the murder and suicide bad
been committed. It was soon crowded
with men, women and children. Some of
these had just stowed their baggage be
neath their bunks, while others were still
on the ladder leading to the steerage deck
from the deck above.
The two shots which had been fired in
rapid succession had been heard on the
upper decks. The 6aioon passengers began
to rush toward the forward part of the ship
eager to learn what had taken place.
t Detective Sergeant Rathjeu and Officer
Kelson, of the Hoboken police force, were
on the pier. They had heard the shots fired
and rushed aboard the Eider. When they
had reached the steerage deeks a horrible
sight presented itself. Near the lader,
etreatened out upon the deck and bleeding
from their mortal wounds, were the re
mains of Mrs. Barth and her lover.
An ambulance call was sent out at once,
and a few minutes later Dr. S. A. Heifer,
Hoboken’s city physician, and Coroner Wil
liam N. Parslow arrived upon the scene. Dr.
Heifer made a hurried examination of the
bodies, at.d after pronouncing them dead.
Coroner Parslow gave a permit to have
them removed to his undertaking establish
at No. 99 Washington street.
PASSENGERS MUCH EXCITED.
There was great excitement among the
Eider s passengers when the remains of
Philip Ohnacker and Katnarine Barth were
brought on deck and carried out on the
wharf. The officers of the ship tried to
quiet the passengers, but many of them re
garded the sad occurrence os a bad omen.
Mrs. Barth had a steerage ticket in her
possession which gava her name as Mrs.
Ohnacker. Her purse contained 811 in
American money. Thirty cents in money
and a nuuitjer of letters containing photo
graphs of the dead man were found on the
person of the suicide and murderer.
From the letters found upon Ohnacker
Ins nativity was learned, along with the
fact that he was a farmer by occupation
and had served as a German soldier in the
Twelfth infantry company, stationed in
Mainz.
While at Gimbheim he had made the ac
quaintance of Mrs. Barth,an attractive little
woman, who was living at that place with
her husband and two children.
Mrs. Barth fell in love with Ohnacker.
He went to Mainz shortly after. The
recreant wife followed him to that place
and begged him to elope with her. Ohnacker
did not like the idea at first, but finally
consented.
About six weeks ago Ohnacker visited his
home in Gimbheim. He told his brother
that Mrs. Barth wielded a terrible influence
over him, and that they would start for
America in a few days. He also informed
bis brother that in case the woman should
not prove true to him he would kill both her
at.d himself.
Thoy arrived in this country about three
weeks ago aboard a steamship plying fce
, tween Liverpool and this pert. Since then
Ohnacker has been working on a farm,
which, as he says in his Utteb to his brother'
is about five hours’ ride from New York.
In his last letter to his brother, Rudolph
f the mu derer and suicide says
that Mrs. Barth has treated him shamefully
since they left Germany.
THE CRIME PREMEDITATED.
"1 did not want to come here," he wrote,
‘but that woman made me. Her influence
over me was something awful. She allowed
me to go to the dogs. She wouldn’t even
m nd my clothes aud I was compelled to
sew my buttons oil myself. Here lamina
strange country, bunted|worse taan a wild
animal. You remember, dear brother,
what 1 told you when 1 bade you farewell
at the railroad dtv ot. I told you that I
would end it ail. The time has coma. 1
am sorry to bring disgrace upon you and
our family, but it must be.’’
The letter written by the murderer’s
brother is a very pathetic o„e.
“My dear brother,” he writes, “I wish
that you could have seen Mr. Barth whan
he came to my bouse a few davs ago. He
was accompanied by his two little children.
And such lovely children. That woman
must have a heart of stone to leave such
darling babes. We haveforgivea you, dear
brother. Mother, poor mother, how she
misses you. She loved you so much. I
know it all. 1 know that after you had left
our home at midnight to meet that woman
you stole back to our home and ope led the
door leading to mother’s room. You wanted
to have one last glimpse at her. How sad!”
Fifteen minutes after the bodies cf
Ohnacker and Mrs. Barth had been taken
ashore the ship’s band struck up a lively
tune. The heavy lines and hawsers were
cast adrift and hauled aboard, the gang
planks rolled ashore, and amid the strains of
sweet music and the waving of handker
chiefs the big Eider left her pier, and, after
backing out into midstream and pointing
her big razor bow toward the Statue of
Liberty, started on her way across the At
lantic.
Coroner Parslow will bury the bodies of
the two unfortunates.

RAIL AND CBOSSTIE.
The average rate per mile received for
passenger fare in the United States is 2%
cents, in England 2 cants, in France I}.{
cents, in Belgium \}{ ceuts.in Austria 1
cent, and in British India only ti-10 cent.
The Pullman sleeper which has been used
by Henry M. Stanley has been returned to
the Pullman shops. During the time Mr.
Stanley used it it bore his name. It will be
refitted before it leaves the shops.
Eight trains a day each way between Sa
vannah and Tybee will be run after the
openitig of the season. On Tybee day of
Merchants’ week an hourly schedule will be
run, beginning at 9:30 o’clock a. in., and
running until 10:25 o’clock at night.
Commissioner Slaughter has rendered his
decision relative to summer tourist rates
tickets and limits for the season of 1891.
He decides that the summer tourist rates
shall be on the same basis as last year, and
that the tickets shall be of the non-signature
style, with no transit limit, the holder not
being requirnd to reach his destination
within fifteen days, as year before last, nor
within any specified time within the extreme
limit of the ticket.
The cheap excursion rates from Augusta
to Tybee will go into effect Sunday, May
17, on which day the first excursion of the
season will be run. The rates will be the
same as last year. On Sunday 81 50 for the
round trip, gxwi only for the day. Tickets
good from Saturday to Monday, inclusive,
will be sold at 83. * Tickets sold Saturday
and limited to Sunday will be sold at 82 50.
Tickets sold Sunday and limited to Monday
will be sold at the same price.
It is a fact not perhaps generally known
outside of railroad circles that many of the
locomotive engineers, especially those of
the Pennsylvania li ie, are comparatively
wealthy, and the number of those who are
worth 830,000 to 825,000 is not small, con
sidering the number employed. Locomot
ive engineers are perforce steady, reliable
men. and in the majority of cases save a
good share of their earnings, which are
large, and in the course of ton or fifteen
years accumulate a competency.
E. 8. Goodman, general freight and pas
senger agent of the Savannah, Americus
add Montgomery railroad, was in the city
yesterday on his way to New York on busi
ness connected with the road. Ho reports
the Savannah, Americus and Montgomery
as having done a fine business during the
winter, and nlthougb tho dull season is about
to begin, he does not think the road’s traffic
will be much decreased, as it passes
through a fine farming section, and will do
a big traffic in truck during the summer.
The recent freeze, Mr. Goodman said, had
no appreciable effect on the crops, and
everything along the line is in excellent
condition, particularly potatoes. The melon
crop, he thinks, will be unusually large this
season, and the Savannah, Americus and
Montgomery will handle a big portion of it.
When asked as to the possibility of his
road being built into Savannah, Mr. Good
man could give no positive information,
although he said he thought it would be
done some time, and he hoped soon, as it
would be a great advantage.
The summer excursion svason has begun.
A Morning News reporter who visited the
Central railroad office yesterday afternoon
found General Passenger Agent E. T. Charl
ton with an immense pile of corresponde ice
on the subject of excursions before him.
The following list of excursions already ar
ranged for by the Central railroad this
season will give some idea of the magnitude
of this “side line,” as it were, of the busi
ness: The first excursions are during Mer
chants’ week, when the Central railroad is
prepared to land people from all over the
state in Savannah at the rates advertised.

few of the most important excursions. In
addition to these there are Sunday school
picnics and excursions of all kinds, almost
without number.
Polly Draws a Crowd.
A big green parrot attracted quite a
crowd at Broughton and Drayton streets
about 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon. The
parrot perched himself up in the very top
of the tall sycamore and refused to bo
coaxed down. A little negro volunteered
to climb the tree and catch the parrot for a
reward, which he accomplished success
fully. The crowd had its fun watching the
boy olimb down with the bird. The parrot
screamed and fought, but the boy swung to
him.
The parrot escaped from the Screven
house.
Shooting at an Officer Comes Cheap.
William Johnson, the Yaniacraw shootist,
was before Mayor McDonough yesterday
morning on three charges—firing a pistol in
the street, attempting to shoot Officer
Thorpe and attempting to shoot a colored
man named Stallings. He was sentenced to
pay a fine of flO or serve 30 days on the
chain-gang.
THE MORNING NEWS: TUESDAY, APRIL 21. 1891.
TaE FAIR’S LAST NIGHT.
Alderman Reid Carries Off the Gold-
Headed C me—The Other Contests.
The fair of the First Volunteer Regiment
of Georgia practically closed last night, al
though it will remain open to-night to
auction the unsold articles. The crowd was
large, but little money was spent, as the
crowd was made up of those who had almost
constantly attended since the opening
night.
The committee thinks that the fair will
net the regiment in the neighborhood of
ss,ooo, which, although uot as much as was
expected,|is quite a neat sum. The regiment
anticipated making at least 810,000. It
was practically a military fair, from start
to finish.
The Irish Jasper Greens’ table will head
tho list with returns. The workers at this
table labored bard to achieve this result,
and it will be a satisfaction to them to know
that their efforts were successful
The contest for the goli-headed cane be
tween Aldermen Reid and McGuire was the
great attraction of the fair, and especially
the Guard’s table, where the friends of both
candidates gathered in large num
bers last night, and watted
pationally to hear the result,
which turned out to be in favor of the
‘•Father of the Fort,” Alderman W. F.
Reid, who secured 3,025 votes, as against
1,064 votes for Alderman McGuire. The
amount of money turned into the table’s
treasury on the cane alone is $1,123 25—a
sum almost unprecedented in fair contests.
Lieut. Gleason, in a few remarks, pre
sented Alderman Reid with the cane, and
in the name of the Greens expressed their
heartiest thanks for the work done by the
aldermen, and especially as it placed them
in first position in the net returns: There
was considerable cheering by Alderman
Reid’s friends over the result of the contest.
The contest for the gold watch between
Misses Buttimer, Deegan and Duffy was
equally as exciting as that between the al
dermen. It resulted in the success of Miss
Buttimer, who returned more than her two
competitors together.
The Greens awarded a pair of handsome
confederate sleeve buttons, donated by Vet
eran Charles White, to Lieut. Gleason ; to
John Power, a chiffonier; to P. T. Toge, a
handkerchief case; to Mrs. Ryan, a tldv;
to Edward Leonard, a cord of wood;
to the Little Sisters of the Poor, a barrel
of flour: to W. B. Puder, a China tea set;
to J. H. Haslam, picture of Archbishop
Gross of Oregon; to A. R. Lawton, Jr., a
wine cellar; to A. M. Corish, a pin cushion;
to J. A. Sullivan, a pair of ladies’
shoes; to Mrs. M. Ryan, a lamp;
to Mamie Dowling, a handsome doll;
to Col. W. W. Gordon, a silk sash; to Miss
B. H. Levy, a lady’s silk umbrella; to H. S.
Oppcnheim, a ton of coal; to W. IV. Mal
lard, a casx of Faust beer; to Miss Bella
Wilkins, a pair of lady's bronze shoes; to
Miss C. Rogers, a box of stationery, and to
John Flannery Gleason, a marble ship.
The Cadets will probably come in second
in the return race. The contest at their
table lor the gold watch, to be
awarded the most popular non-commis
sioned officer of the regiment, caused
considerable rivalry. There were three
candidates, Sergt. McMahon of the Greens,
Sorgt. Tyson of the Cadets and Sergt. Kuck
of the Volunteers. The result was in favor
of Sergt. McMahon, who received 942 votes,
against 653 for Sergt. Tyson aud 38 for
Sergt. Kuck. The amount realized was
$39 J 25.
The cadets awarded Lieut. Helmken a
New York ticket; E. Ham, a half dozen
shirts; J. M. Wilson, a writing desk; Jon
nie Marlow, Bafoty bicycle; E. Po-tell, a
game of checkers; Mayor McDonough, a
riding bridle; E. Clark, a silver coffee set;
F. Falkins, a hand painted cushion, and A.
C. Wylley, embroidered suspenders.
Many of the articles were auctioned oft
last night, but the fair room will present a
veritable auction house to-night, as all arti
cles must be disposed of.
TWENTY-FIVE YRARS WEDDED.
Mr. and Mrs. Frederick lilug Cele
brate Their Silver Wedding.
Mr. and Mrs. Frederick Klug celebrated
their silver wedding at the Armory hall
last night with a reception, at which a large
number of their friends were present to
congratulate them upon having passod the
first quarteV of a century of wedded life.
They were the recipients of many valuable
and useful gifts.
After the reception dancing was indulged
in. After it the guests were invited to par

THE HYGIENIC TREATMENT OF CON
STIPATION AND ORDINARY
DYSPEPSIA.
Sir Andrews, the English professor,
believes that in the vast majority of
cases chronic constipation may be
successfully overcome by a tea
spoonful of the genuine imported
Carsbad Sprudel Salt dissolved in a
tumblerful of water (half a pint),
cold or hot, early in the morning,
and, if necessary, on going to bed.
It should specially be used during
the Spring and Summer months,
when sufficient outdoor exercise can
be taken.
Use only the genuine imported
article, which must have the sig
nature of “ Eisner & Mendelson Cos.,
