DEMON INCARNATE TELLS HOW
HE KILLED HIS SISTERS.
HE WAS ARRESTED ON SUSPICION.
His Four Victims Were Felled by Well
Directed Blows From Keen
Bladed Ax.
A special from Montreal, Canada,
says: Thomas Nully, aged twenty-one,
years, an elder brother of the three
Nully girls and one boy, who were
murdered near Rowdun Thursday, was
arrested Saturday afternoon charged
with having committed the crime.
He at once made a confession in
which he acknowledged the awful deed.
Nully was taken to Joliet jail Sun¬
day.
Tom and the two older sisters had
frequently quarreled, and it appears
that on Thursday he had a row with
the eldest girl, Elizabeth. Words had
been succeeded by oaths and blows until
Tom drove his sister out of the house.
Then, according to the confession of
the crime made by him, he followed
her to the barn, threatening to murder
her.
The second sister, Annie, arm'ng
herself with a keen-bladed ax, fol¬
lowed Tom, resolved to protect her
sister from violence, even if she had to
use the ax. Tom turned sharply
around, and before she was aware of
it, he came upon her. A brief strug¬
gle for the weapon was followed by
Tom wresting the ax from her hands
and striking savagely at her neck.
His woodman skill did not fail him.
The keen weapon was buried in her
neck and she fell dead just as the hor
ified Elizabeth ran up to see what had
happened.
As Elizabeth turned to flee the mur¬
derer nemembered her as the first
cause of his crime, aud resolved to car¬
ry out his original impulse of revenge.
He chased the shrieking girl to the
barn and struck her a blow with the
ax, felling her as he had done poor An¬
nie.
Tom then returned to the house and
forced open the door, which the two
other children had barricaded, and
killed them as had the two others.
SHORTER HOURS OR LESS WAGES.
New England Cotton Men Want National
Labor Daw Enacted.
It is announced at Fall River, Mass.,
that all but one or possibly two cotton
manufacturing corporations have sign¬
ed an agreement to abide by the re¬
commendations of a special committee
of the Manufacturers’ Association
which has been appointed to take
some steps for an improvement in the
condition of the local cotton industry.
It is expected that a shut down or a
decided reduction of wages will be ad¬
vised. Some manufacturers are op¬
posed to a shut down, urging that it
will not improve affairs. They point
out that Fall River no longer controls
the markets and that it would simply
allow mills in other states to meet the
improved demand by running over
time.
This is particularly possible in the
south, and the only remedy is believed
to be in securing a national law gov¬
erning hours of labor.
Some of the advocates of a cut down
who are represented on the committee,
favor a cut beginning with the treas
urer and which ahply to every ein
ployee.
WHALERS ICE-BOUND.
Eight Vessels, With ManV Souls on Board,
Are Shut In.
A special from San Francisco says:
The fact that eight whaling vessels
ara nipped in the ice at Point Barrow,
with nearly 200 souls on board, is cre¬
ating widespread apprehension along
the coast aud particularly whaling among busi- mer
chants engaged in the
ness and among sailors and their fanii
lies. great
The anxiety has become so
that the trustees of the San Francisco
chamber of commerce have determined
to hold a meeting immediately for the
purpose of formulating a telegraphic
dispatch to be sent to the president of
the United States urging him to dis¬
patch a relief expedition to their rescue
at the earliest possible moment.

The coroner, newspaper reporters
and a crowd of neighbors were called

v’i-iday afternoon late, where the body

IELLOW JACK IlETltEATINK.
Encouraging News From New Orleans,
Mobile and Montgomery.
There is a big improvement in the
yellow fever situation in New Orleans.
The number of new eases Saturday
were cord comparatively small and the re¬
of fatalities considerably lighter.
Many recoveries from the disease were
reported at the office of the board of
health duriug the day and the people
are convinced that the backbone of
the fever has been broken, and in a
very short time the plague will be ex¬
terminated altogether.
there According to the board of health
was also a big decrease in the
number of fever cases for Sunday,
and the situation was still further im¬
proved. Very few places are now
quarantined against New Orleans, and
there has been a general revival in
business.
Recapitulation: Cases of yellow fever
Sunday, 13; deaths, 8; total cases of
yellow fever to date, 1,742; total
deaths from yellow fever to date, 236;
total cases absolutely recovered, 940;
total cases under treatment, 566.
A special from Mobile says: The
number of new cases of yellow fever
continues to fall off from last "week’s
big average. The report for Sunday
is the most favorable since the first
week of the appearance of the fever—
four new cases, no deaths and eighteen
recoveries.
The report of the board of health of
Montgomery Sunday was the most en¬
couraging since the beginning of the
epidemic. There were no deaths and
no new cases.
Pass Christian Modifies Quarantine.
At a meeting of the board of health
of Pass Christian Sunday it was de¬
cided to admit persons holding certifi¬
cates from health officers from Atlanta,
Ga., and all non-infected points. The
action was taken so as to allow a number
of anxious persons to get in, there hav¬
ing been no yellow fever in town during
the present epidemic. The town is
still maintaining a strict quarantine
against all infected points and will not
relax vigilance until there is absolutely
no further danger.
Pass Christian is justly proud of her
record, being the only town on the
coast to escape the fever.
SEALING TREATY SIGNED.
United States, Russia and Japan Come to
an Agreement.
A Washington special says: A con
ferenoe between the United States,
Russia and Japan, looking to the joint
protection of the seals, was signed at
the state department Saturday.
It will require the ratification of the
senate to become effeetive.
The text of the treaty will not be
given out by the state department exchanged. un¬
til final ratifications are It
is said, however, by those concerned,
that the general purposes of the treaty
have been already outlined in the press
and it is likely that all of further in¬
terest that remains in the document is
the exact nature of the additional re¬
strictions that are to be imposed upon
pelagic sealing. delegates
Later in the afternoon the
again ass ambled at the state depart¬
ment and formally signed the proto¬
cols or records of the various phases
of the negotiations leading up to the
final agreement.
It is expected that the meeting of
British Dntisn n.r»fl ana American American fivncrtH experts will wm
take place next week, according to the
original programme, ante., there
should be some intervention from the
British foreign offices, which is not
anticipated. Meanwhile the British
expert, Professor Thompson, who is
now in Washington, will be acquainted
with what has already been accom¬
plished by the government of the
United States, Russia and Japan, and
with the terms of tha treaty.
OFFICIALS UNDER ARREST.
Government Employe! In Philadelphia
Charged With Conspiracy.
A sensation was occasioned in polit¬
ical and official circles at Philadelphia,
Saturday, by the placing in custody of
several city and United States govern¬
ment employes of prominence, charged
with conspiracy and the issuance of
fraudulent naturalization papers.
The men arrested are Eugene Lind¬
sey, clerk in the city prothonotary’s
office; John Merrick, assistant clerk
for the United States circuit court,
and Richard Merrick, father of the
latter, who is also a clerk for the United
States circuit court. It is Btated that
other arrests will be made. It is said
that naturalization papers were fur
nished signers for $17 apiece, and that
quite a number have been issued.
AGAINST DEMOCRATS.
"Wood County, Ohio, Will Be Place In Re¬
publican Column.
A special from Columbus, O., says:
The only important development in
the status of the next general assembly
Saturday was the decision in the Wood
county case, which once more removes
that county from the doubtful list to
the republican column.
Chairman Nash does not believe the
case will be appealed by the demo¬
crats, since the law in the case is plain.
There was some talk of an injunc¬
tion against the supervisors, but it was
not confirmed. Should no further
change be made, the republicans will ;
have five majority on joint ballot.

—the stitch in time. Where these symptoms exist on
the left or the right side of the womb, disease of the
ovary is setting in, and soon there will be, if there
is not already established, a discharge, trilling at
first, but later copious and irritating. Soon, also,
there will be felt dull, dragging pains radiating from
the ovary.
Do not, my sister, let your malady go so far, but /
those of you who are already suffering in this
way should begin at once a course of treatment
with Lydia E. l’inkham's Vegetable Compound, / f t
It will restore the organs to their normal con- 0
dition.
In this connection Mrs. E. L. Mycrs, Quak-/
ake, Pa., says: “My ovaries were badly dis-'
eased, and for almost a year I suffered with se
vere burning pains which were almost unendurable, and a dull, heavy pain is
the lower portion of my back. If standing l was most relieved with my foot
resting on a stool or chair. The doctor told me I w r ould have to take my
bed and keep quiet, I had not used half a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege¬
table Compound before it worked wonders with me. I now owe my health
to the Compound. To those who are suffering from diseases peculiar to wo
men I Would say that Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound is just what
they need.”

The Empress Eugenie, who, thirty
