THE AMERICUS DAILY TIMES-RECORDER: SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1891. ■ OUT HER THROAT. A HELLISHXhlME PERPETRATED ON A HELPLESS WOMAN. TheVIlll.n Persuaded HI. Wile to Taka a Walk on tbo Railroad and Thera Cnt Her Throat From Ear to Ear—Tbo Body Identified—A Four In Search. Memphis, Not;. 13.—An atrocious murder lias been committed near Mason's depot, thirty miles out on the Louisville and Nashville road, and the murderer sought to conceal his crime by placing the body of his victim on the railroad track just before train time. The murdered woman was the wife of Donglas Smith, a farmer. She had left her husband oil account of his had treatment and went back to her mother's. During the night Smith called at the house and persuaded her to take a walk with him. The two were last seen walking together along the railroad truck. Soon afterward, as a freight train came through a lonely cut, the engineer saw a body lying be tween the rails immediately in front of him. He reversed his engine, but. too late to prevent the locomotive from passing over the body and mangling it out of all human shape. But the wheels did not do their work os the murderer expected. The head and neck of the corpse escaped injury, and the train men, on examination, found that the throat had been cut from ear to ear. The body was identified as that of Mrs. Smith, and a coroner’s jury re turned a verdict charging her husband with the murder. A posse is out hunt ing for him. BRAVE WOMEN. Fetnnlo Convicts Itescue Drowning Sbn Otr Andaman Islands. Calcutta, Nov. 13.—Amid the stories of death which have been received here there is one which redounds highly to the heroism of women, and one which should be strongly put before the au thorities so that tlie participants in the noble deed may he rewarded as they deserve. As lias been announced the steamer Enterprise, used by the govern ment to convey convicts to the Anda man Islands, which is the penal settle ment of the East Indies, was lost dur ing the cyclone. Later intelligence shows that when the storm burst the steamer was caught unprepared, and that she was blown with terrific speed onto the shore. She dashed upon the rocks lying opposite the female convict prison, and lying there a wreck the gigantic seas swept clean over her. The wreck of the vessel was seen by a number of the female convicts, who were seeking shelter from the fury of the gale, and they, with a heroism seldom equaled by women, started for the shore. Slowly and painfully they forced themselves against the storm, grasping the rocks and other things to prevent themselves from being literally blown away. At last they reached the shore. Here, nothing daunted by the thundering in rush of the waters, which at times swept high above their heads, they formed a human life-line, each woman grasping the other’s hand. Then the bravest of the party at the head of the line, rushed into the sea and grasped a form seen twirling and twisting in the water, and, aided by her compan ions, drugged ashore one of the men who lmd been swept from the wreck of the Enterprise. Again and again the women entered the wnter, and each time they returned with a man who, had it not been for their heroic atd, would surely have been drowned. Of the eighty-three men comprising the officers uud crew of the Enterprise only six were drugged from the water bv the noble-hearted women — noble-hearted and self-sacrificing even though they have been branded ss criminals. Every English officer and evei liah member of the crew of the prise were lost. ■ 1 -V Arsenical Poison. Orangeville, Cal., Nov. 13.—3. E. Brandon and wife have died of arsenical poisoning. A grown son and daughter were also poisoned, and the former la expected to die while the latter may re cover. The arsenic was used by the family, who were amateur taxidermists, and was placed lu biscuits in mistake for baking powder. CROOKEDNESS. Charms That nn Indian Apmt Has Used False Returns. Huron, S. D., Nov. 18.—Parties here from the Cheyenne Indian agency bring sensational reports affecting affairs there. Inspector Sessney has been look- ing into the business management at the agency, and, it is said, discovered a number of irregularities, among them evidences that P. P. Palmer, the agent bis clerk, George B. Shoonfelt, who is a son-in-law of Palmer, and Interpreter Benway, have received several thou sand dollars by false returns to the government in the purchase of cattle from the Indians. It is alleged that they paid only abont one-half the amount permitted by the government, hut that their vouchers called for the full amount. Hay was purchased, it is charged, at from 33 to $5 per ton, the returns being made to the department at $10 per ton. It is said that Shoenfelt has admitted that he received in this way between $S,000 and $10,0(10, and those associated with him have hod like amounts. Other items of irregularity have been dis covered, it is said, and as the investiga tion progresses more are likely to come to light. Inspector Sessney will make a thorough investigation. There are numerous rumors afloat concerning the affair, some of them very sensational. KNIGHTS OF LABOR. Lee Heflin and George Dye were ar rested at Calverton, Fauquier county, Va., charged with complicity in the murder of Mrs. Hines and three children near there. Heflin ia the man who saw the house burning and went some dis tance to the neighbors to give the alarm instead of rendering assistance to Mrs. Hines. Mr. William T. Price, a Justice of the Peace, at Richland, Nebraska, wa* con fined to his bed last winter with a se vere attack of lumbago; but a thorough application of Chamberlain’s Pain Balm enabled him to get up and go to work. Mr. Price says: “The Remedy cannot be recommended too highly." Let any one troublod with rheumatism, neural gia or lame back give It a trial and they will be of the aame opinion. 00 cent bottles for sale by W. C. Russell, Ameri cas, Ua. novl-lm. Some of the admirers of Miry Ander- son-Navarro are complaining because she win not return to the profession she adorned. These people evidently look upon Mr. Navarro as a stage robber. “Farewell, happy fields, where Joy forewrdwells " Obi there's no need tor giving up those pleasant visits to the - T chance you should get using Over 931,000 Unaccounted tor by the Books of Kx-Treasurer Turner Toledo, O., Nov. 18.—The sensation of the Knights of Labor convention here was the report of the committee appointed at the last session at the re quest of General Secretary Hays to in vestigate tlie treasurer's hooks, which he found in an unsatisfactory shape. The committee reports that ex-Treasurer Turner refused to apfieur before them or give up the bank deposit books, can celed checks and other documents in his possession. They made the best inves tigation possible in the absence of the documents and find there is over thirty- one thousand dollars unaccounted for, even crediting Turner with $17,000 which his statements show to have been expended, bnt which the books of the order do not show, leaving a balance of over fourteen thousand dollars entirely unaccounted fur. The report was or dered printed. Trade Greatly Depressed. London, Nov. 13.—The tin-plate in dustry in Swansea has become so de pressed and the demand for steel has been so seriously lessened that it is re ported that the masters in that pluce have decided to close their works when the existing contracts have been exe cuted. The outward trade from the London pocks to New York at the present time is in great contrast to the trade which was being carried on ' between the two ports at the same period last year. Whereas the vessels formerly sailed from here with full cargoes, they now leave this port for New York with their bolds half empty. This decrease in the carrying trade is attributed to the effect which the new American tariff exerts in this country. As a consequence of the decrease it is announced that at the end of the present seasou’s service be tween England and Montreal, the steamers controlled by the Allan line, instead of being placed on the route from London to New York, will be transferred to a new route, which will include London. New Orleans and ports in the Mediterranean. Affroted by the Allen L»bnr Law. Montreal, Que., Nov. ,18.—Steve dores and wharf laborers who have been in the habit of going to the United States for work every winter are won dering bow the alien labor law is going to affect them this winter. From pres ent appearances most of thenl will be compelled to stay in Canada. A num ber of stevedores from Quebec who went to Pensacola and other southern ports hsd to return to Canada, as the American authorities would not allow them to obtain work there. A gentleman who wdnt from Mon treal to Boston to see what arrange ments be could make for filling np cat tle boats there has decided that, owing to the alien labor law he had better re main in Canada. This looks as if Canadian wharf laborers were going to be barred out in the United States this winter. Conspiracy Discovered In Greece. Paris, Nov. 13.—The Eclair, of this city, publishes a dispatch from Athens, which cont ana information of startling importance, In anbstance the corre spondent of The Eclair states that a conspiracy has been discovered in Athens, with ramifications in other portions of the kingdom, having for ita object the overthrow of the present ruling dynasty of Greece. The dis patch adds that it has been learned that a number of persons high in political circles are implicated in the plot. Among the prominent men who are said to be desirons of throwing aside the government of King George is M. Spirdon Tricoupts, the well-known Greek statesman, who, at one time, held the position of prime minister of the kingdom. Comments on Salisbury's Speech. Paris, Nov. 13.—The papers of this city contain comments on the speech which Lord Salisbury delivered at the inauguration of the now lord mayor of London. Le Jonr says that Lord Salis bury's remarks in regard to Egypt were made with the express purpose of shock ing the susceptibilities of France. La Temps refuses to take seriously Eng land's arguments that the blood and treasure which have already been lavished in %ypt justify the prolonged occupation of that country by England. Le Thmpe says during the English gov ernment's ten years' possession of Egypt its mission to restore order them has been falUUed, then the time to evacuate the country bad arrived.
