places superior to any assignment that

the Crime.

was shot Sunday evening on the trestle
leading from the grounds of Grove
House park, a pleasure resort by Chas.

been paying attention to Mrs. Shattuck,
which were resented by the husband.
The body was run over by a trolley car
and fearfully mangled,but the coroner's
examination showed four bullet wounds
in the head. Mrs. Shattuck was ar
rested and Monday evening was dis-
misseu under surveillance.
Later, a friend received a confession
from her which implicated Swartz
fager, who had not before been sus
pected. She was then rearrested and

der. Swartzfager, who is 23 years of
age, while his paramour is 35, got wind

STEAMER PARIS
Has Been Freed From the Manacles
Ready to Sail.
London, July 12. The salvagers
have moved the American line steamer
Paris astern for a distance of 150 yards
and have shifted the vessel's position
slightly to the eastward. They hope to
be able to get the after stokehold fires
alight.
The Paris was now clear of the rocks.
The sea was smooth, but a heavy fog
prevailed.
The intention of the salvages was
simply to slew the stern of the liner so
as to facilitate the operations of the
divers, but it was found that she moved
more freely than was expected. Three
salvage boats alone practically removed
her from a critical position unaided.
She still has a distinct list, however, to
the starboard aud cannot be assumed
out. of danger.
The tugs are preparing to tow her to
Falmouth harbor.

that if the governor calls a special ses

will receive it."
