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. Him pain under the shoulder blade I* dys pepsia. lake Simmons Liver Regulator.— Ad. 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. The transportation of the cavaiiy icgiment to Savannah Monday; an excursion by tho Public L brarv of Macon from Atlanta and all intermediate points to Tybee May 27. The grand annual excursion of the colored people to Andersoaville on the union memorial dav. May SO. The annual encampment of the Independent Order of Red Men in Savannah May 12 to 14. A one and one-third rate on the certificate plan has been given for this excursion. The annual meeting of the Independent Order B’Nai Brith in Atlanta May 10 and 11. The same rate is given as to the P.ed Men’s convention. The Georgia Funeral Directors’ Association to beheld in Brunswick May 26 to 28. The general assent'lv of the Presbyterian church south, at Birmingham May 21 to June 1. The annual convention of the Georgia Teachers’ Association at Brunswick April 28 to May 1. The rail roads have given one fare for the round trip for this excursion. These are only a 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 take of a sumptuous repast. Toasts were offered by A. P. Solomou, John Geil, A. N. Manucy, J. H. Quint and C. E. Wakefield. Among the guests were Mr. Henry Lubs, Mrs. John Lubs, Mrs. L. Doscber, Airs. Gorse and Mrs. B.

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.
