THURSDAY, JUNE 16 , 1892. NUMBER 900 A PECULIAR CASE. Who Instigated the Assault on Joseph Fish the Merchant. Chtcago, June 16. II it was a widow of considerable means who, as alleged, insti-gated the recent brutal assault upon Joseph Fish, the wealthy dry goods merchant and society man, her identity is still a mystery. The ease is again before Justice Lyon this afternoon aud Jerry Trumbly, the assailant, is an taciturn and morose as ever. Some-body has provided him with able counsel, although he has no means of his own. and this fact is considered significant. Three additional charges have been filed against him, one being that of conspiring with persons unknown, and if he is con-victed upon these charges he can be sent to Joliet for a period of twenty-tiv- c years. ALL OVER. The Epworth League Sessions Ended tast Ms; tit. The last session of the Epworth League convention was held last niffUt at the Metho-dist church, and was a very interesting one. The music was excellent, being furnished by Miss Abell and Mr. Harper. A permanent organization was effected as follows: President,;.!. L. Loar of Ogden; first vice-preside- 1). M.

A large number of outsiders greetdd the Patriotic Daughters of America at their lit-erary entertainment last evening. The pro-gramme was excellent and the various fea-tures heartily applauded. The entertain-ment opened with an instrumental selection, "Mary and John" waltz, by the P. 0. D. of A. orchestra and was follow ed by Miss Young in a well rendered recitation. Miss Drake's "Adopted Child" was very prettily rendered and the Miss and Master Felloes gave a guitar and mandolin duet which was highly appreciated and called forth a hearty encore. Miss Nellie Griffith who delivered a recita-tion was succeeded by J. H. Watts whose dramatic recital of the "Old Surgeon's Story" elecited much applause. After auother selection by the P. O. D. of A. orchestra Mrs. Fafnsworth's reading of "The Baseball Game" provoked much amusement. Miss Barber then gave "The Spanish Mother" which was admirably ren-dered and well received. A reading by Mrs. Marshall closed the entertainment which will be repeated on Wednesday evening next. a . MORE GRIM OEM Another Tornado Lays Waste a Fer-tile Country and Transforms a Scene of Happiness Into One of Misery. THIS TIME IN MINNESOTA. The Monster Strikes a Schoolhouse and Kills the Teacher and Fifteen Pupils with One Fell Swoop. Yet Not Satisfied it Passes on Shat-tering' and Scattering Every-thing in Its Path. EXTENT UNPRECEDENTED The Number of Victims not Yet Known but it is Thought That it May Reach Fifty or Eves More. Mankato, Minn., June 16. One of the worst disasters that ever visited southern Minnesota occurred late yesterday after-noon. A funnel shaped tornado swept over-land and laid waste scores of happy homes aud sent forty or fifty souls into eternity. The extent of the country devastated is GREATER THAN EVER BEFORE KNOWN in the history of the state. Starting near Jackson on the Southern Minnesota road the cyclone swept eastward four miles, south to Minnesota lake and then took a broad circle to the south and passed south of Wells. Two miles north of Sherburne it struck the district school house in which were the teacher aud eighteen scholars. The building was demolished, the teacher and fifteen scholars The log house of a Bohemian family at Bowen Mills near Minnesota lake was LITERALLY SWEPT FROM THE EARTH. The family consisting of man, wife and six children spent the night in the rain and cold without shelter. The air at the time was stifling, and seemed like gas; every-thing being filled with a white haze. It is impossible to get a list of the killed and wounded. Probably not less than a hun-dred were injured, mostly in the country distant from medical aid. All along the Milwaukee road from Jackson to Minne-sota Lake the scene is one DEVASTATION" AND DEATH. Not every house was taken, but so many were destroyed that the scene is pitiful. It is one of the richest sections in thfl state. The wires are all blown down. Telegraph poles and trees are everywhere blown over. Trains on all other roads are greatly de-layed. At Linden many houses were torn from their foundations. A family consisting of man, wife and child was killed and many others were injured. The storm passed eastward, destroying farm houses, barns and everything in its path. P'our miles south of Minnesofa lake five farmhouses were utterly demolished and four people killed. The body of one Jno. Brown was taken from Minnesota lake tills morning. His wife, hired man and school teacher were injured. Much damage was done south of Wells. It is reported forty to fifty were killed south and west of that village. As most of the damage is in the country the reports are slow coming In. It is expected later reports will add to the horror. A CLOUDBURST. Western Wisconsin Damaged, Especially Railroad Property. Milwaukee, June 16 Despatches to the Evening Wisconsin shows the cloud burst in the western part of the state last night did great damage. At Boscobel fine bridges were carried away, the water rising eleven feet in Turtle river in a few minutes. The Milwaukee track is washed out. Train service is suspended at Sparta. One end of the tunnel on the Northwestern is caved in and five houses are washed away. Numer- - ous washouts are reported on the roads at various points and highway and railway bridges washed away at Prairie DuChien. TEN' AT MINNEAPOLIS. Mappletox, Minn., June 16. Ten people are reported killed and twenty injured near here. Six houses were completely wrecked. .... . 1 SUICIDE, A Well Known Lady Ends Her Life With Rough On Eats. THE CAUSE A MYSTERY. She Leaves a Letter Stating What Olothes She Wishes to Ba Buried In. The Theory of Temporary Insanity la Advanced by Her Friends. THE INQUEST TOMORROW The Husband Overwhelmed with Grist The Victim ltecouies Conscious But Makes No Statement. Oneo more the enterprise of the daybreak sheets haR been ilmnntrt.rl At 7 o'clock last evening Mrs. Hanley, who resided with her husband at No. 1037 east, South Temple street, took a dose of-- : rough on rats, and at an early hour this morning she died from the effects of tho poison. Did you see anything about it In the morn-ing papers? Of course not. Immediately after taking the poisons, Mrs. Hanley became violently ill and went to bed, where she was found a little later by her husband. THK UNFORTUNATE WOMiS was suffering intensely and soon became unconscious. A physician was 6ummoned and everything that medical skill couleU suggest was done, but ail efforts to save her life proved unavailing. During the night she became rational, and seemed toy realize and regret her rash act. She spoko of it to her husband, the physician and neighbors, but offered no explanation, and' the only information elecited from her was to the effect that she had left a LETTER IX HEK TRUNK. This was produced at once, and was found to contain nothing but directions us to tho clothes she wanted to be buried in and in-structions as to the funeral. This proved conclusively that it was a suicide, and fur-ther that the woman had contemplated it for some time. After WRITING IN MORTAL AGONT for several hours, death ended her suf-ferings at 7:35 this morning. Coroner Harris was uottified later in tho day and took charge of the remains. He will hold an iuquest at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning, and the funeral will occur at Mr. Hanley's room a. 2 p. m. tomorrow, and Dr. Utter will be requested to make a brief address, wuo sue was Mrs. Hanley was a German by birth, but had spent most of her life iu this country. She was about 40 years of age, and livo years ago married Mr. Hanley at Colorado Springs. They came to this city two: years ago, and he is now Interested in a second-han- d store on First South street, opposite the city hall. All wh6 were acquainted with him say that he ha been a most devoted husband, and being a. man of considerable means, took pleasure inj) providing his wife with every-luxur-y she fancied. Mrs. Hanley's mother resides io, Germany, and ever since her marriage has provided for the old lady with money, sup, plied by her husband. The latter is well known iu this community, and, in fact, is widely known all over the coast. He wasl at one time the postmaster at Colo-rado Springs, and has also served as a member of the Net ads legislature. He is overwhelmed wittt grief at the great calamity which has be-fallen him and will have the sympathy of the entire community in his sad bereave-ment. There is no doubt but that Mrs. Hanley was temporarily insane when she determined to commit suicide, and this is, in fact, the only explanation, than can be given for the act. She Is said to have been a woman of excellent disposu tion and generous nature and possessed many accomplishments. MERCIEK'S HARD LUCK. Creditors Trying to Effect a Settlement of His Many Obligations. Montreal. Que., June IB. Quite a num-ber of creditors of ex Premier Mercier are in tow--n for the purpose of attending a meeting that has been called for this afternoon to consider what action shall be taken regard-ing his failure. Except in a few extreme cases general sympathy is expressed for the whose health is so broken that it is feared he cannot ions survive. Although his creditors recently refused an offer of forty cents on the dollar, with the statement that they would eventually get the entire amount of their claims if his health were spared, it is doubtful whether a forced s.ile of the estate will realize more than sufficient to pay that dividend. The principal property that Mercier has surrendered includes the family residence and contents on St. Dennis street, what is known as the Tourouvre property at Ste Anne de la Parade aud some real estate at St. Hyacinthe. The total appraised value of these prop-erties in $45,000, or $13,000 less than the lia-bilities. Efforts have been made to induce the creditors to leave the settlement of the es-tate to the board of trustees, with power to dispose of the properties to the best advan-tage of all coiffcerned without making an ac-tual sacrifice. As for the unfortunate who once rolled in wealth and was OB the tip-to- p wave of personal popularity, his ruined, financial and social, is complete. POLITICAL MARLPOT, Delegates and Leaders Arriving in Chi-cago on Every Train. MORE PROGNOSTICATIONS. Illinois will Settle the Ouestion as to Whether or Not any favorite Sons Shall be Put in Nomination. Chicago, June 16. The political situation is liueuiug up and more political leaders are in town and mre coming with every train. Henry Waterson of Louisville, is among the arrivals, also National Committeeman Prather of Missouri, who said he thought Cleveland would get nearly all the votes of his state. Hon. William English of Indiana, says he thinks Cleveland splits nearly even on delegation in that state. The delegation will meet Saturday to de-cide whether to present Gray's name. The Illinois delegation will also meet Saturday to decide whether or not to present Palmer's name. On its decision will depend the pre-sentation of the names of favorite sons. If Illinois presents Palmer, Indiana will present Gray. Iowa will present Boies, and there are Cleveland, Hill, and possibly Car-lisle and Gorman. His headquarters were opened here today and his literary bureau put iu operation." WILL ItKFKAIN F It O M SPEAKING. Neither Harri-o- n or Keid Will Swing Around the Circle This Year. Washington', June 10. It is regarded as doubtful whether either of the republican candidates will "swing the circle,"' to use a political phrase, in the coming campaign. President Harrison made quite a number of speeches in Indiana and other states in the campaign of 18SS, but some of his friends are now Inclined to hold that it would be un-dignified for him now. as president, to take a prominent part in the coming campaign iu his own behalf. On the other hand there are those who ar-gue that it would be eminently statesman-like for him to make a tour of the country, expounding aud defending the actions and course of his administration during the post four years, and commending it to the careful consideration of those who vote November next. The fact is cited that even so staid statesman and such a stickler for form as Mr, Gladstone, has never hesitated to enter aetively into an English campaign in behalf of the return of himself and party to power, and this precedent, it is he d, is a good one. So far as Whitelaw Heid is concerned it is very certain that the occasions upon which he is heard will be few and far between. This is not because be is not a good sneaker, but because he suffers from a chronic affec-tion of the throat which makes it impossible for him to address public iratherings very often, or forany length of time. There will, however, be no lack of oratory in the campaign, for even before the newly elected national committee, had temporarily organized at Minneapolis its members had been deluged with offers from promi-nent republican speakers in all parts of the country to go on the stump under its aus-pices. KANSAS ALLIANCE. They Resolute Cpon .Sundry Things and NomiHte Caiid idates. WlCHITJL, Kan., June 10. After nominat-ing L. I). Welling for governor early this morning, the people's party convention chose W. T). Vincent for lieutenant-governo- r bv acclamation. Vincent declined to run, and no attempt was made to nominate another candidate. The St. Louis platform was eudorsed, with the following among other additions: - "The government is only good where an injury to one is the concern of all; that public needs should be supplied by public ageucies; that the government should provide public telephones, telegraph lines, postal currency, and as nearly as practi-cable, the free delivery of mail to all the people." Thelatform condemns the United States senate or defeating weekly payments, the Australian ballot bill, election of railroad commissioners by the vote of the people; it favors pensions for disabled railroad em-ployes, to be paid by the companies aud be a first lien on their property. A resolution favoring woman's suffrage was adopted, and an adjournment taken till 10 o'clock in tiie morning. On the following delegates to the national convention were reported: A. F. Allen, William Cook, Frank Doster, H. M. Boyd, S. W. Murphy and John Hall. VILLAKD FOB CLEVELAND. He is in Chicago ami will Work for His Favorite. Chicago, June 16. Henry Villard, the Northern Pacific railroad magnate, arrived here this afternoon and took up his quarters at the Auditorium, where a suite of rooms has been reserved for his occupancy. The man and now financial magnate, is an active adherent of Cleveland, as was recently evi-denced by his subscription of a thousand dollars to the anti-Hil- l committee in New York. It is expected that he will be able to exercise a good deal of influence w ith west-ern and northwestern delegates in favor of the and the story comes from New York that in the event of the latter's nomination Villard will stand pledged to raise anywhere from 82UO,0O0 to $jr0,000 for campaign purposes. . e .

Panama, 2:19, who made a famous grand circuit campaign in 1880, winning all down the line, died at Ashland Farm, Lex-ington, Ky., May 20. She was foaled in 1872, and was by Mambrino Hambletonian, dam Belle of Cayuga, by Hambletonian Prince. She has produced a yearling filly by King Rene, and was in foal to the same horse at the time of her death. Butte is having a wrestling tournament. The contestants, with their weights, are as follows: Jack King, 210; Mike Burnes, 194; Nick Nankervis, 154: John HarrinJon, 173; Joseph Rule, 154; James H. Williams, 162; Joe .Tefford. 178; John Dunstan. 149; Ed-ward Trevena, 140; T. T. Keat, 150; James Rodda. 152; Albert Kitto, 160; John King, 210; William D. Eddy, 145; William Dungan, 160; Tom Toward, 173, and Mike Burns, 194. In the states there is Billy Frazer, the fighting parson, while in England there are the brothers Wheatley Bill and Alf each of w hom has been a shining light in the Sal-vation Army. Both are teetotalers. The younger, Bill, is one of the cleverest d men but although able to take a se-vere gruelling he is not a hard hitter. For a limited number of rounds he is likely to hold his own in any company, but a protracted struggle usually finds him a beaten man. Austin Gibbons stock is liable to a big boom in consequence of the report that Stanton Abbott has been defeated by Sam Baxter. The friends of Abbott were quite well pleased at the match with Gibbons, judging the latter from his form shown by him in his fight with Jim Verral, and not-withstanding the physical advantage of the Jerseyman, they would be likely to grab at every chance to back their favorite at short odds. The defeat by Baxter if it is true will not materially alter their opinion of the Westminister lad. It will be looked upon rather as an indication that Sam is once more getting something like his old form back again, and that used to mean de-feat and a knock out for most anyone who had the temerity to tackle him. A sickly-lookin- g young man of not more than 126 pounds, with a cigarette continually in his mouth. That was Baxter out of the ring. The same sickly-lookin- lathy specimens with a melancholy smile, such as used to be seen in the face of Tom Sayers, knocking out 136 and with the greatest ease, that was Baxter in the ring. Anthony Diamond of Birmingham, has the credit of being the only man to defeat him in Eng-land. THE LEGAL LEXICON. Three Oases Argued and Submitted in the Supreme Court. THE PROBATE PROCEEDINGS. Orders Made by .Judge Uartch At the Land Office Judgments .Entered Melange of Court Notes. The first case to come up for argument in the supreme court this morning was that of Ane Knudsen, respondent, vs. Julius Hann-berg- , administrator of the estate of James Kuudson, deceased, on appeal from the district court at Provo.

Buford et al. was next argued and taken under advisement. The plaintiffs were tried on an indictment charging them with unlawfully closing lands in Box Elder couuty.

Robert Wallace is not an attorney and hence does not fully understand nor fully appreciate the beauties of legal practices. He is, however, the defendant in a case brought against him by the Bank of Lon-don, and in an affidavit filed this morning he states that he is a merchant tailor, and was not aware at the time of a little interview between himself and Schroedr, who is an at-torney, that the latter intended to entrap him into an admission that judgment had been duly rendered against him and was still unsatisfied. He then goes on to say that on the trial of the case the Bank of London was defeated. With charming can-dor, Mr. Wallace says that the affidavit of Schroeder in support of a motion for judg-ment on the pleadings, is a sham, and adds that it is frivolous as well.

The former is the dining car that bore off the honors at the National Republican con-vention it Minneapolis and is a gem, being one of the most handsomely furnished coaches of the kind in the country.

Joints of beef and baskets of vegetables, cases of fruit and cans of ice cream, delic-ious confections and delicate pastry were all there in abundance and the skilled cook who will have charge will have no reason to complain of lack of material upon which to lavish his talent. The bibulously inclined will have no diffi-culty in satisfying his desire for the liquids that cheer and cause cheering for a sly peep into the commissary department revealed everything in that line one could wish for froiri live-ce- beer to five dollar champagne. All the Pullman cars are new and of ele-gant finish both inside and outside.

MAIN STREET PAVING, What One of the Business Men on That Thoroughfare Says. GIVES SOME EXCELLENT ADVICE. At tlie Chamber of Commerce Interest-ing 'World's Fair Notes The County Assessor's Tax Roll Briefs. One of the leading business men on Main street in speaking of the proposed paving of that thoroughfare this morning said: "1 wish you would say in The Times for the benefit of the city council and the board of public works that some care should be exercised iu letting the contracts for paving Main street. The contract should be given some company who will push the work and not go shilly-shallyin- g along all summer. Main street is the retail street of Salt Lake and ought not be closed any longer than is absolutely necessary. We do not want any repetition of the State street matter iu ours. A delay similar to the one on that thoroughfare would cause us many thousand dollars loss. I am w illing to pay a little extra for the work if required rather than have any such thing happen. Before a contract is let the board of public works should be thoroughly satisfied that the bidders have a plant sufficient to carry out the work in a specified time. "Another thing, while I do not wish to decry the work of any firm, I do not think the methods now employed inlaying asphalt are sufficient to insure good wear. It strikes me that material like asphalt should be subjected to a very heavy pressure and that a steam roller should be used instead of the lignt affairs in present use. "We cannot afford any experiments on Main street. The cost of paving is heavy and the traffic there is such that none but the best kind of asphalt pavements should be used." STILT, BOOHING DS. More Good Words in the Eastern Press for Salt Lake. The eastern papers are still booming Salt Lake under the caption "The Silver Metrop-olis," An exchange says: "Salt Lake City is the most interesting and attractive city on the continent, and is rapidly advancing in wealth, population and commercial prestige. It has a population of 00,000, and on July 1, 1891, its assessed valuation was $59,000,000. Salt Lake City is the great in-dustrial and mining center of hundreds of prosperous mining districts. It has four smelting works and three sampling works, and will soon require as many more to treat the immense mineral output tributary to it. Salt Lake City is the sanitarium and com-ing health and pleasure resort of the conti-nent. There is only one Great Salt Lake be-tween the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, and every tourist crossing the continent visits Salt Lake City to bathe iu this wonderful inland salt sea, because of the charm of its exhile rating and invigorating waters. "Salt Lake City has fifteen banks, with a capital aud surplus of $7,006000; seventy-liv- e miles of electric street railways iu operation: the most complete hotel facilities ; the largest auditorium aud the most attrac-tive bathing and pleasure resort in the west. There are ten colleges, universities and academies, with a splendid graded school system, in that city, making it the educa-tional center for several states and territor-ies. During this year $600,000 of bonds were voted to erect new public school build-ings." World's Fair Notes. Among other interesting exhibits of the United States government at the World's fair will be a complete set of cartridge ma-chines from Frankford arsenal, accompan-ied by a corps of experienced operators from the arsenal, who will attend the running of the machine's and show visitors how Cncle Sam makes ammunition for the small ajyns of his troops.

The commission is preparing to organize couuty associations, and the certificate of membership promises to be one of the neat-est things of the kind ever gotten up.

KICKING ORANGEMEN. They Propose Resistance to the Proposed Irish Parliament. Belfast, June 16. The Ulster unionist convention meets here Friday in the im-mense hall prepared for that purpose, to take action in the matter of Ulsters posi-tion on the proposed independent Irish par-liament and an executive paper is to be read on this occasion. The council's course is to be passive resistance. This, it is sug-gested, shall take the form of a re-fusal to allow the election to be held, that the mayor of Belfast publicly burn the writs of election and a general re-fusal to pay taxes levied by the English gov-ernment be carried out. The writer holds precedents will not justify the British gov-ernment in interfering with tho army, and the writer thinks in a fight between Ulster and South Ireland that the former would have the best of it.

Twenty-nin- e of Them Converted Ry Elder Weckle on Their Way to Snlt Lake. Twenty-nin- e Mormon proselytes from the south passed through Cincinnati over the Queen and Crescent route on their way to Salt Lake City yesterday says the Cincin-nati Enquirer of Sunday last. The party were in charge of Elder Weckle, Mormon missionary in east Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia. They were recruits he had been several months converting, and were very well satisfied with their new religion. Most of the party were coarse and illiterate coun-try people. A number of families were in it, and the majority of comely looking young females among them indicated that Elder Weckle either preferred converts of that kind or that women are more easily in-duced to embrace the polygamous creed. One horny-hande- gray-heade- d Individ-ual whose wife and four daughters were with him, was the only member of the party who would talk. When asked if he was going to become a Mormon he said tartly: "I reckon ef I do taint nobody's business. The Mormon religion is es good es auy and a deal sight better'n some. I guess we won't hnf to live on corn-pone- s and bulk meat in Salt Lake like we did 'mongst the Methodists and Baptists."
