Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
SIOUX CITY, la., Sept. 2. The "Husk
ers" walked away from the Hooslers to
day and were very easy winners through
out. The home players put up a splendid
game In the field, and, although they did
no slugging, such as characterized the
series with Detroit, they secured thirteen
hits. Besides, Cross was just wild enough
to give bases when they counted. Hart was
a puzzle to the Hooslers, and but five
clean hits wer9 made off him, the sixth be
ing a scratch fair bound from the plate. A
base on balls and singles by Phillips and
Motz in the second brought in the first run
and a fumble by Stewart of McCarthy's
slow grounder, an advance on an out and
a steal home in the fifth gave the second
run. Score: .

AN ATHOCIOUS CRIME
DETAILS OF THE MURDER OP JAMES
GREGORY M:AR SHANGHAI.
Horace Loomln Charged li- the Cor
oner frith Commit tlnr the Deed-
Ills Mother Story Indluna Xeivs.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
KOKOMO. Ind., Sept. 2. The completion
of James Gregory, the wealthy bacheloi- f
shot to death at Shanghai, twelve miles
west of this city, Thursday night, reveals
the full details of an atrocious murder. The
coroner's verdict fastens the crime on Hor
acs Loomis, a cousin of the dead man, and
a son of Louisa Loomis, in whore house the
crime was committed.
The story of the crime as brought out in
the Inquisition mns as follows: One mile
south of the little hamlet of Shanghai are
three farms adjoining, one owned by Mrs.
Louisa F. Loomis, aged eighty years, an
other by her son Horace, aged thirty-five,
with a wife and three children, and the
third belonging to James Gregory, a nephew
of the old lady. Since the death of the eld
er Loomis, seven years ago, Gregory ha3
made his home with his aged and feeble
aunt and has taken care of her in her de
clining years. This arrangement was
against the wishes of young Loomis, but
the old woman declared that Gregory was
better to her than her own eon, and refused
to listen to the protestations of Horace,
who openly accused Gregory of mercenary
motives and wtth attempting to get posses
sion of his mother's property.
Three weeks ago the old woman was
taken violently ill, and since that time has
been at the point of death. No one lived in
the house but herself and Gregory, and he
was her only regular attendant. Late
Thursday night Gregory, after attending
to the wants of the sick woman, laid down
on his bed in an adjoining room to snatch
an hour's sleep before time to administer
another dose of medicine. A few moments
before the little clock on the mantle struck
the hour of midnight Horace Loomis
stealthily entered the house from a rear
door, and, walking around the bed of his
sick mother, passed on Into Gregory's room,
where the faithful attendant of Mrs. Loom
is slumbered, all unmindful of his impend
ing fate. While Gregory yet slept Loomis
drew a revolver and fired at his heart. Two
more shots were fired as Gregory attempt
ed to rise, all taking fatal effect. The two
men then came Into the room of the pros
trate old woman. Gregory fell dead near
the bed. and the murderer, with face avert
ed from his old mother, passed out of the
house the same way he entered and fled.
Not a word was spoken tfy either men dur-,
lng the struggle, nor could Mrs. Loomis
clearly see the face3 of the men by the dim
light, she being almost blind.
Not les3 terrible was the experience of
the sick woman tthe remainder of the night,
she being helpless and alone with the
corpse until morning. How she stood the
trying ordeal is best told In her own words,
uttered faintly to the coroner from her
deathbed: "The terrible affair seemed to
give me superhuman strength she said.
"I don't know how I did it, but I arose
from the bed as soon as I could realize
what had happened, and went out to the
back yard to ring the farm bell. I could
not ring it to make any one hear, and,
drawing the bell rope to the door, returned
to the house, and, after spreading a quilt
over the dead body, sank down exhausted.
How I endured the tortures of that awful
night I never can tell. I am sure in that
time I died a thousand deaths. Every time
the clock struck I rang the bell again, but
no one heard the alarm, and for six hours,
from midnight unt'l dawn, I suffered all
the torments possible. I am now nearly
eighty years old, a ad I never expected to
have to go through, such an experience as
this. But it can't last much longer. I know
I can live but a few days longer, then will
come everlasting peace, praise the Lord."
Loomis, the alleged assassin, was arrest
ed, and is in Jail without bail. He returned
home the next day with the improbable
story that he and Gregory had been set
upon by robbers, who had killed Gregory
and dragged himself several miles away.
All this was disproved at the inquest.
Loomis is undoubtedly insane. He has
been in the asylum twice, the last time
four years ago. Ills arrest Is a great relief
to the neighborhood, as he Is regarded as a
dangerous man. -Gregory had been several
times warned of his danger, but he did not
take the matter seriously. Gregory was
fifty years old.

THE SHOTGUN OR JUSTICE."
Topic of an Address by Helen M. Gou
gar at Prohibition Park.
NEW YORK, Sept. 2. Fully one thou
sand men and women listened to an ad
dress of Mrs. Helen M. Gougar, of Indiana,
in . the auditorium In Prohibition Park,
Staten Island, this afternoon. The an
nounced subject was "The Shotgun or Jus
ticeWhich Shall the Laboring Clashes
IIav In the Settlement of Strikes and the
Battles Between Capital and Labor?" Re
ferring to the poverty in the great cities
and the Buffering in the great tenement
house districts of the cities, Mrs. Gougar
said there were thousands of acres of land
in the suburbs of New York held idle for
speculative purposes, and added: "If I
were the Almighty for only five minutes I
would take all this property from the land
speculators and give to God's children in
the tenement houses of New York a place
uoon this earth and some of the gospel of
fresh air and sunshine." Mrs. Gougar
painted a very vivid picture of poverty in
Chicago of the great army of unemployed
who were provided for in that city by pub
lic charity during last winter, and spoke
at length of the labor troubles at Pullman
and in and about Chicago. She declared
that all of the idleness and labor troubles
grow out of the liquor traffic.

latter part of the morning and all the aft
ernoon the sun, unobscured by clouds,
feebly shone through smoke supposed to
come from the forest fires now raging In
the lake region. The effect has been a
weird, unearthly yellow tinge to the at
mosphere, made oppressive by the general
absence of stirring air. The day has been
a repetition, although In a less degree, of
the famous "yellow Tuesday" of 1j81. Re
ports of a similar phenomenon have been

DEFENSES TOO STRONG
THE JAPAAESC ARMY DID XOT CARE
TO ATTACK FORT ARTHUR.
Forced Loan Ordered by Chinese Of
ficials HaltPs President Seriously
111 General Foreign Xe-trs.
LONDON, Sept 3.-A special dispatch to
the Times from Shanghai states that the
Chinese report that on Thursday last the
Japanese troops made a reconnoissance in
force on Fort Arthur. They found the
landward defenses too strong and retired
without making an attack.
Another dispatch from Shanghai states
that an Imperial decree has been issued in
Pekin- ordering a forced loan. It calls
upon four native banks to loan the gov
ernment, if possible, ten million taels.
The Standard's correspondent in Berlin
telegraphs as follows: "The war party of
which Prince Tchlng Is the head has, I
learn, got the upper hand In China, which
means thai the struggle -with Japan will
J be prosecuted with vigor. A large army Is
gathering near Pekin. liair ot tnis array
will guard the capital, while the other half
will march to Corea before winter. Owing
to the freezing of the Gulf or Pe Chi Li
the Jananese will then not derive so much
advantage from their navy as they have
hitherto, and will be doomed, more or less,
to inaction." The correspondent adds that
the rumor of negotiations between the
United States, Great Britain, Russia and
Germany for the holding or a conrerence
to pave the way for peace is unfounded.
Socialists Bury n. Suicide.
BERLIN, Sept. 2. The body of Agnes
Wabnitz, the Socialist leader and founder
of the Berlin Waitresses' Union, who com
mitted suicide on Tuesday night last by
taking prussric acid in the Friedrichshain
Cemetery, was Interred to-day In the Free-
thought Cemetery. The funeral was made
the occasion of a great Socialist demon
stration. Thousands of persons accom
panied the remains to the grave. Hun
dreds of wreaths, bound witn red riDDons,
were received from all carts of the coun
try where socialism has a foothold. Herr
Vontherr, a Socialist member of the
Reichstag, delivered an oration at the
grave and Socialist 'hymns were sung.
There was no disorder.
The body of the suicide was found near
the monument erected over the graves of
those who lost their lives tn the riots of
1S13. The woman was recently condemned
to imprisonment for making an Incendiary
speech, and on the day she killed herself
she should have surrendered to the prison
authorities to undergo her punishment. It
'Is pretty certain that she committed sui
cide to avoid serving the ten months to
which she was condemned.
Ilippolyte Seriously 111.
NEW YORK, Sept. 2. The steamer Sagi
naw, Captain Rockwell, from Azua, San
Domingo, etc.. brings no news of any dis
turbance In Ilayti. President Hyppolyteis
said to be mortally ill, and when he dies
it Is thought that a very uncertain state
of affairs will prevail and a revolution will
be among the possibilities. The Saginaw
also brings the news from Puerta Plata
that on Aug. 15, the Hamburg-American
Packet Company steamer Colonla, in at
tempting to change her berth, struck a
sunken steamer in the harbor and will
probably prove a total loss. It seems that
there was a French steamer anchored in
the most desirable berth, and when she
moved the Colonia attempted to take her
place, and while making the necessary de
tour to accomplish this struck on an un
marked sunken wreck.
The Kaiser in Sweden.
STOCKHOLM, Sept 2. Emperor William

'Spanned 'the streets, and everywhere the
colors or Sweden, rsorway and Germany
were intertwined. The thoroughfares were
packed with peasants and burghers, attired
in gala costume, the whole forming an ex
tremely picturesque scene. In the evening
mere was a torcnnght procession, and the
Emperor was serenaded by the military
bands. The maneuvers began last Thurs

IDA J. WELLS SPEAKS
SHE DENOUNCES THE AVI I O LE S ALE
LYNCHING IN TENNESSEE,
And Say" It Is Illsh Time Steps Were
Tukcn to Make Such Crimes
Impossible.
CHICAGO, ' Sept. 2. Ida J. Wells, the
young colored woman whose work on the
lecture platform here and abroad in be
half of the anti-lynchlng movement has
made her name well known, could scarce
ly restrain her emotion when she read the
published account of the fate visited upon
six of her race near Milllngton, Tenn.
"Granting that those men were guilty
of the crime charged," she said, "there
is no other place in the world where a
capital offense is made of burning barns. I .
scarcely know what to say of the men
who- are responsible for this butchery.
This last example of lynch law is but a
sample of the sort of things done in the
South. The white men down there do not'
think any more of killing a negro than
they do of slaying a mad dog. This inci
dent serves to back up the contention that
the negroes aro not lynched solely for the
ferpetratlon of foul crimes, notwlthstand
ng the symposium contributed recently
to a New York newspaper by a number
of Southern Congressmen, reaffirming that
lynching seldom or never took place in
the South except for crimes committed
against women and children. An excuse
is made by the whites for the purpose of
shielding themselves and leaving them
free to murder all the negroes they wish
Despite the history of races and nations,
the Southern white man vainly believes he
can keep down an entire race by such
methods of onDression and intimidation.
The South has more than once insisted
upon being left alone with the negro prob
lem. The Nation has obligingly accommo
dated her, and to-day the spectacle is pre
sented of a so-called civilized country
standing idly by and seeing one section
disgrace the entire country. I think It is
hish time the justice-loving and law-abiding
people should take some steps to make
such acts impossible."
Led Them Into the Mob's Hnnds.
MEMPHIS, Tenn., Sept. 2.-Criminal
Court Judge L. P. Cooper Is determined
to punish the members of the mob who
lynched six alleged negro incendiaries near
Milllngton, Tenn., Friday night. Four more
men were arrested on bench warrants to
day charging them with complicity in the
lynching. Their names are J. D. Laxtqn,
E. N. Atkinson. J. W. Walker and W. G.
Thompson. From facts brought out to-day
it appears that detective Richards knew
that an attempt would be made to lynch
the prisoners, and deliberately led them
into the hand3 of the mob. Several citizens
haxl warned the officer against starting to
Memphis in a wagon and urged him to
place a heavy guard around the prisoners
until the arrival of the train. A number of
citizens volunteered to act as guards, but
Richardson declined their offer.
The funeral of the victims of the vlgi
ants occurred at Kerrville, Tenn., to-day.
No demonstration of any kind occurred.
The lynching has aroused a storm of in
dignation. The Commercial-Appeal edi
torially says: "It was a deed of almost
inconceivable savagery.- an act of cold
blooded, brutal, devilish atrocity that
makes every nerve writhe with horror and
the heart sick with loathing for the bloody
beasts that committed it. Every man re
SDonsible for the foul crime is a wretch
whose feet would defile the callows and
whose neck would disgrace the rope that
strangled him. The whole community
must bear the odium of a deed done bv a
band of ruffian midnight assassins, unless
It takes action to clear itself of all respon
sibility The lynchers must be brought to
justice." -
SHOT HER HUSBAND.
Wife of a Cincinnati Brewer Attempts
Murder on a Train.
CINCINNATI, O., Sept 2. On the second
day of August the wife of John Kauffman,
the brewer, attempted to shoot and kill
Emll Schmidt the receiver of the Kauff
man Brewing Company. She was held in
bonds to keep the peace, and also was
held to answer for her crime. To-day she
put a watch on her husband's movements,
and, learning that he was going out to his
Glendale farm, boarded the same train. As
Mr. Kauffman arose to get off the train
she fired from behind at his head. The ball
plowed along the right cheek and came
out near the mouth. His wound is not
necessarily fatal. When Mrs. Kauffman
was arrested a quantity of parts- green was
found on her person. Mr. Kauffman has a
petition for divorce pending. Mrs. Kauff
man was a variety actress.
XO MOttE CUTS.
IVevr Jersey Potters Vote Against Ac
cepting: Further ltednctions.
TRENTON. N. J., Sept 2. The operative
potters of this city have voted not to ac
cept any further cut in their wages. This
decision was reached on account of the
evident present intention of the manufac
turers to ask the men to submit to an
other reduction on account of Senator
Smith's failure to get the crockery sched
ule in the new tariff bill raised after the
manufacturers and workmen signed the re
cent agreement on a basis of a 12V2 per
cent cut. Some of the manufacturers think
there should be a further cut of n? per
cent, but others will not ask more than
74 per cent.
Clothlnfr Mnkers Strike May Grow.
NEW YORK, Sept 2.-It Is estimated
that two thousand persons connected with
the clothing trades of this city will to-morrow
morning be on strike unless the em
ployers will accede to demands for more
wages and fewer working hours. The
seven hundred finishers who went out ac
cording to the agreement of Saturday
threw out more than a thousand operators.
The employes of several houses will meet
during the week and decide to go out if
their demands are not heeded.

We shall see what happens now that a
new tariff is In force. We shall see
whether su?ar goes up or down in price.
We shall see if free wool makes cheap
clothing. We shall see if the oo-per-cent.
reduction in the raw materiil of coal
makes clothing, cutlery, pottery or any
other goods manufactured by the use of
coal perceptibly cheaper. We shall see if
coal itself ia made any cheaper to the
small consumer who buys it by the ton,
or by the still smaller consumer who buys
it by the basketful. We shall see if the
Gorman Sugar Trust's plan of "opening
the markets of the world" will lewd any
foreign country to buy an additional bushel
of American wheat or an additional pound
of American meat, or to pay a higher
price for either. We shall see if the Dem
ocratic promise of $1.25 wheat will be kept.
We shall see if wages range as hieh durinsr
the first eighteen months of Gormanlsm
as during the first eighteen months of Mc
