ALTGELD's TRIP TO-THE WEST Lhe story of his trip across Ohio, Indiana and Iinois to the Missi sippi river, opposite St, Louis, is a pitiful record of going afoot, going’ hungry auduinally landing at the river's brink with 15 cents in his pocket. With this he paid his own and a fellow wanderer’s fare across to St. Louis. He was then 21 years old. He got work, but between him and = the law books, which it was his ambition to read, there was a great abyss; yet he crossed it and read the books from time to time, From St. Louis he went to Savannah, Mo., and studied law there. After his admission to the bar he rau for prosecuting attor- ney of Andrew county and was de- feated. In 1874 he ran for the same office and was elected. A year later he resigned, sold out his law library and went to Chicago.

Berlin, March 12.—Count von Wal- dersee has postponed his journey to the United States for a year. It is said that Countess von Waldersee, reading the accounts of what hap- pened to Prince Henry and the al- most superhuman efforts he was called upon to make during his visit has become much alarmed lest any- thing like it should fall to her hus- band’s share. The countess, who is anxious about her husband’s health, resolved that the American trip, about which she was solicitous re- cently, be deferred until the American pro-German enthusiasts have time to cool off.

White Men and Negro Women Banded | Together to Rob and Kill---Sang | While the Victims Were Dy- | ing---Fiye Bodies Found and Many Missing. Beaumont, Tex., March 12.—Mat- tie Bennett confessed to-day to the sheriff that she was at the head of a gang of negro women and white men who had for months been luring men into her house, drugging them, beat- ing them and robbing them. If they died the Vietinis were dragged to the river and thrown in. If they were only stunned, they were taken out of the house to a remote part of some street and left for pedestrians or policemen to find The woman was arrested on suspi- cionof being connected with the mur- der of Benjamin Pearson, one of the five mem whose bodies have been found in the river, She denies that she was guilty of this crime, Shead- mits, however, that one of her gang diacussed the commission of the deed. On the strength of her confession a white man, “Punch” Prim, and a negro woman, “Mary Jane,” have been arrested and are in jail, Allof them hare been “sweated,” and Sheriff Lindley stated last night that heexpecteda full confession, not only of the murder of Pearson, but of oth- ers, within a short while. A fear is felt that than twelve men, among those who have come to Beau. montand were afterward reported as “missing,” have been murdered, and chat their bodies are now at the bot- tom of the river, Inthe last three months at least fifty inquiries for missing men have more been received by the postmaster, the police and local newspapers and, while no one supposes that the gang has murdered so many as fifty, there ix fear that some of the disappear: wnees are due to their work. Five bodies have been found in the river since the first of the year. The first was a white man, so bad- ly mutilated that identification, in the absence of every article that had been in his pockets, was impossible, Hewas buried as unknown The see- ond body, found January 24, was never identified, The third, found January 28, was identified by means of an imitation emerald ring, too cheap to be worth stealing, as that of Patrick Fitzpatrick, who had been three weeks. The fourth body, found by boys a week ago, was identified as that of Benjamin Pear- son, who had been missing since Washingtan’s birthday. Sunday afternoon a fifth body was discovered, so mutilated that identi- fication was impossible. Ineachcase the skull was fractured. A deputy sheriff arrested Mattie Bennett anda woman known as “Mary Jane,” Sun- day night at the Bennett woman's house ou Sabine street. The fact of the arrest was kept secret until a part confession was secured from the Bennett woman. If it should hap- pen that the victim groaned or shrieked too loudly “Mary Jane,” the Bennett woman said, would rush to the piano and sing “eoon songs” to drown his cries until he could be quieted. The sheriff, Landry, stated this af- ternoon that no further arrests would be made to-day, although he islooking for two more negro women and six or eight white men, some of whein are wanted as witnesses. thissing’ It's Germany and Brazil Now. Berlin, March 12-—Protests are be- ing made at the German foreign office by the Disconto Gesellschaft bank and other institutions interested in railway property in the South Amer- ican republics. The bank is asking protection against the Brazilian gov- ernment, which is understood to be onthe point of confiscating a rail- way already in the hands of a receiv- er favorable to the government. Brazil claims that the German in- vestors did not fulfill thestipulations of the concession, and this is suffi- cient cause to repeal the franchise. A naval demonstration and aggres- sive action is planned as the only way to bring Brazil to terms. Aé- cording to German financiers the situation is critical. {t cost eleven hundred dollars to rid Warrensburg of smallpox. That money would have been a good start- er for paving streets.
