Pitrspuna, Pa., July 6.—A terrible tragedy occurred near Greensburg, Westmoreland Coun- ty, about thirty miles from Pittsburg, at 3 o'clock this afternoon, Joseph Atkins and his wifo, aged respectively 70 and 70 years, resided on a atnall farm about Ovo miles cast of Greens: burg, Thetr enectalty was tho raising of small fruits, and they manaced to supply the Greens- borg market almost exclusively with straiber- ries.and raspberries, The aced couple nad the reptitation of belng perfectly honorable in thetr dealings, and enjoyed the confidence and respect of their neighbors. How- ever, there was a ekecleton in the closet of tho Atkins family, Thera was a report that the title of the Httle farm which wade their Hying for them was a disputed point, and that it bad caused many a breach of the peace between husband aud wife. This re- port was- tric, Tho facts concerolug that trouble, as told to your reporter to-night, were that, a year or two ago, Atkins contemplated a trip to Jretand., Ile made his arrangements for the journoy, among which was the transfer by decd of the littic homestead to his wife. Sub- sequent ecvonts caused him to change bis mind, © and bo did not leave the" country. He then dcsired to be reinstated as the owner de tacts of the Unity Township farm. This tbo wite’s family resisted, and since then it appears their home life has‘ been an incessant jangte. Yet they lived, tintil the ‘tragedy of their death, {n the Rame house, the occupants of the samo apart- ments, from which it is Inferred that the woman nover imagined from any act of her husband that ‘her Iifo was in jeopardy. Just how the fatal quarrel camo abuut Is known to no one. The woman evidently had not oxpected a fatal ending to their dispute, for, when sho was found, she held upon a thumb and finger o pair of scissors, which, from the Indications around, it was eyidont that sho had:. been .occupiod in paring her toenails. There. was au old army: mouaket jo tha houeo. It-is thought this was not loaded at the time, which would indicate that the crime was not with dellberation, The murderer must bave gone to another apartmant where the gun was, and then loaded it well up with bird shot, ‘Then, returning, he poloted it deliborately at his wifoand flred, the entire charze. entering her left breast, and undoubtedly, causing fnstunt death. The noxt act of the ‘uahappy man tas to convey the dings of lis own ter- rible crime to some one. ft may be thatho bad already determined upon suicide, and sougut to give auch inforimation as would dispel all mys- tery nnd oecasion no breath of suspicion to float elsowhere. Hestarted in the directlon of the Foley residence near by, and halted one mem- ber of that family, To this man be quiotly said he bad “killed the old woman,” und adited that the body was in the house. Thither young Foley hastencd, and, upon the very threshold, ananppalling elght met dia caze. Prone upon the floor lay the inanimate form of Mrs, Atking, und from a great, caping hole in her breast a stream of blood fowed ‘over hier shoulders, and, trich- lug upon the floor by ber neck, formed 4 pool t her head inwhich her gray disheveled Jocks were drabbled, nud with whieh the light shaw! that had fallou trom her back was saturat- ed. ‘The yonng man turned with a shudder from the awful spectaclo to ment another equal- ly appalling. Thirty or thirty-tive yards away, {n the. corner of tha ‘lot, ‘atood old John Atkins with the butt of the old musket upon the ground, its muzzle under his chin, and hits bare foot upon the trigger, Rooted to tha spot with horror James Foley perceived a livid flash, a cloud of smoke, ond then, a8 the report of the discharge reached his ear, the murderer fell dead. ‘The aud affair created Intensu exclte- ment in the neighborhood. An inquest was held to-night, but nothing not contalned abuvo yas cliched, ‘The old couple will bo buried to-day. Burrauo, N. Y., July 6.—Bernard Hines, of Alden, yeeterday killed bis wife and himself, Both were old. WILLARD GLAZIER, Muecial Disantch to The Tribune, Sr. Louis, Mo., July 6.—Willard Glazler, a young tan, was arrested in Eaut St, Louis Sat- urday, and taken to Chicago this evening by Deputy-Sherlff Underwood and Mr, McEtroy, a lawyer from Cblcago. Tho chargo agulust Glazior is abducting a female under ae for the purpose of concubinage. lazier's profession is that of a writer of war lifstories, io the produc. tion of which he is quite prollil, To carry on bis business he employs a Jarge number of In- telllgent young ladics and girls to copy, write, and canvass. Glazier personally supervises the labor Of lls asulstants, und, fu thut way, be- comes Well ncquainted with them, About cluhteen montha sro Glazicr wus in Boston actlyely cnguged in his profession, and, whilu thero, became acquainted and intimate with a Yery respectable family named Herrick, ‘Ihe Herrick family had a daughter, a bright, como- ly, well-developed, and vivacious young gtrl of 15. Gladier-had secured tha entire contidence of the Herricks, who permitted thelr daughter, Edith, to enter bis onploy asa cupyist. About seven montus age Glazler found iL necessary to change the auat of his operations to Chicago, Whether it was with the knowledyo and ‘cousent of her parents or surroptittously way not learned, but Mtith accompanied Ginzicr to Chicaye, and covtinued in his employment, During all this tine Glazier became very intl inate with the young girl, who in years and dl: cretion was but on child, aud, by dome prom! or other, seduced her, Alter tint the two sus- tained the relation of buabat and wife, until about six weeks ago, when Ulazicr and the girl dtscovered that sho was euciente, To remove the inevitable result of their intimacy, Glazier, it {a alleged, succeasfully performed an abor- tion on the person of Fullth, Ars. Herrlet, however, obtained p knowledge of the affair, and hastened to Chicago, but, betore ele got there, Glazier had ted to St. Louis, Upon as certaining the truth of the mutter, Mr. Mcklroy, the lawyer above inentioned, was employed, and it was decided to arrest und prosecute Edlth'y seducer,” A warraut- was sworn out belore a Justice and placed in the hands of Mr. Abner Underwood, who, with a photographic pleturo in ‘his. possession, startod on the chase for Glazier. On Monday Jast Underwood arrived in the city aud beau his search wlone ond une aided, -For thren days he Jabured as siduously with no satisfactroy result, until ‘Toursda’ oveulug, when he rau across ifm and. tracked him to Na 1103 Chestuutatrect, Makivg minute jnquiry, Underwood learaed that Gtazier hud rented the upper portion of the house and opened un office or bureau sluiler to the one in Chicago, and bad aomall arity of lady copyists, writurs, and can- vascurs iu bly cupluy. ‘Sue otlkurcould baye arrested Glozler at once, bit. desiring to ayold the trouble and delay of obtaining a reqataltion from the Governor of Illinois or the Governor of this State, ho deliberated spon some vlan by whieh the oman conld be in- veigicd ~ Into Fast. St. Lonuts. Lucktly for his) purpose, Underwood made the acquaintance of a young Jady asaktant of Glazier, who baa worked in the latter's Chicago burcau. After assuring himeclt thut the young woman was perfectly trustworthy, the oMecr took her into bls contidence and solicited her assistance, Thieaho readily granted when in- formed of tho charge avainst her emploscr. ‘The woman perforincd the neceasary arrange: nents by which Glozler wns to be enticed across the bridge and over to Fast St. Louis. Satur- day afternoon she informed Glazier that she was colng to Chicago that evening, and request- od hitn to escort nud) accompany her so the train at the rallway depot. To this Glazier, who bad great confidence in the young nay, and esteemed ber very intich, consentod with gnilant alacrity, and together they walked across the bridge. Underwood followed then within cosy distance, and, when the railway depot was reached, he requested Deputy Mar- shal Kilkelly to nssfat him, ond, stepping up to Glazier, arrested him. ‘The latter expreased great surprise, but wae cool and collected, offer- ing no resistance, and subsnitted quietly the officers to take nim to the polica station, whero ho was locked up for safe keeping till Inst night, when, 28 above stated, ho was taken on the train to Chicago. Mr. McElroy, who came three or four days ago, told the reporter that the prosecution was instituted by Mrs. Mary E. Herrick, the mother of Edith. ‘The girl denics that an abvortion was performed by Glazter, and endeavors to shield him from alf blame, Facts and clreumstances, however, are strongly against the man, and the prosecution will be a yigorous one, ‘The re- porter endeavored to foterview Glazier and got his side of the story, itt he positively refared to say anything About the charge brought against him, stating mercly that he had been In 8t.

Spectat Dispatch to The Tribune Priwapevrnt, July &—A Commission has been taking testimony in this city undera rulo of the Circult Court, In behalf of the Equitable Life-Aasurance Society, that sceks to cancel 0 policy tssucd on the life of Charics G, Patterson for $10,000, At the hearing it was In evidence that Patterson was sent to Moyomensing Prison for two years, for awindling, in 1882, Patterson. was the son of & reputable physician in New Jersey, nnd had married a dacchter of a leading New York 8tate lawyer, who had loft him on account of abuse. . Patterson was pardoned on representations that his luogs were weak aud he wos going to dic, oa he had becn splttiog blood. The evidence is that he theti went to New York and got up s company to purchase coal lands in the Lackawanna region. He was made Treas- urer, and went on to make purchases with one of his relatives. ‘Ihe deedscame back all right, but an inquisitive stockholder who wanted to satisfy himself went to Scranton and could find no such land or such deed on record. Vattersun got outof this by putting the blame on tne rolative. His next exploit was the building of 8 $6,000 stable at Yonkers, on time; but he got a deed by chieancry, and transferred tt to his new: wife in such o wary that the contractor was chisolod out of all his money. He then bought o stone-quarry on time, nnd proceeded to get stone so fast that the owner, seolng that his security would be yalucices when the mortgage becamo due, got out an injuoc- .tion to prevent the exhaustion of the quarry. He next turned up: in House, ving elegantly, and entored a black- mali suit against the Equitable, «claiming. that the Company had falled to meet its promises in a policy, an asking that all books bo brought into Court, togetner with employes and ofll- cers, that thcy might bo compelled to make o perfect exposure of all’ thelr business affairs. ‘Ihe Court dentud motion us vexatious, and tending to embarrass the Company. Then the Company turned on him, and began a suit to cancel his policy, as obtained by fraud, be haying been pardoned on the ground of hemor- rhages of the lungs {Ifteon yearsago. The Com- any had offered to purchase it, but he declined. Vis fies potielos amountiug to 360,000, aud other Soman are golug to try and get rid of the risk. TEXAS AND HER CUT-THROATS.

St, Loute Republtoan, Ju y 3. The Investigation of what is calted the “ Wheelove Grove” myatery in East St. Louls brings to light s condition of things in that locality that ‘deserves the serious attention of the authorities of St. Clair County and the au- thorities of the Stato of Ilinols. The inystery spoken of ts the inexplicable disappearance of a young woman, together with a story that she was decoyed or dragged into 8 grove near the southern part of East 8t. Louis by a gang of young scoundrels, who, after ‘craclly and = fatally atusing her, carried tho body off and buried it. The fact . that the missing eftl’s ‘body had ont been dis- covered up to Thursday evening, though the re- ported occurrence Is two weeks old, imparts mystery to the shocking storr, and, it may be ed, shows the loval authorities to great dis- advantage. But it ia nut the reported murder that we desire to call attention to at present; it {6 the dlagraceful oud insufferable state of things which the statements of wituceaes show tocxist in and around East ot, Louis. All these statements haye been extorted by re- porters from persons who evoke in wortal terror of aang of deaperadocs who make Wheclove Grave thelr home, and who are suspected of be- ing the murderers of the inissing girl. Ench of these persons spoke relactantly and in acknowl- edged drend of the vengeance of the despera- docs. Two persons liyiny near the zrove heard a woman's cries of murder and slirieks for help on the night of the supposcd disappearance, but sald they “‘eyen dared not yo out, for this is a lonely place, and after ulht ft {s not safo for a woman to go out.” A third person stated that he saw the girl in the grove with the tramps; that ho even saw them abusing her, and beard her acreame, but, he added," was afraid to go to her reacuo, although I wns right here working, and they were right over there, {had gone to her assistance, or oft hero as if to go for halp, they. would have killed me. 1 know them weil, aixd know mlat they ate capa- ble of dowg. There ia nothlog but ‘the worst klud of deaperadoes over there, sud they do as they picase and are never interfered with.” Another witness said} ‘1 beard the erles, but sttch things hnye becgmo so common-{n this un- protected region Unt I pald wot much atten. tlon to them. We ndyer see a’ polichinay bere, and the only gafoty ater uicht{ull 1s to slay in the house.’ It [a aven stated that ons man Ily- ing ucar the grove told his nelghbors his witc saw some mon carrying off the dead body of o girl, but that be afterwards denied the’ state- inetit, becauso he feared they would kill him. It isinsufferable thata gang of scoundrels should thus take posscasion of a grove lying ov a frequented highway, neara town of several thousand inhabitants, and rob, plunder, raviel, and murder with dmpatt y. Buch a thing could not exist in the neighborhood of a rude mining- town in the far West for forty-eleht hours; the svouodrels would be bung by lynch law as soon a3 ropo enough could be procured to hang them with. It is a disgrace to the well-governed State of Iinols and {ls order-loving people that such nt Sounonnlly, of scoundrels, worse even than a jungis of wild beaste, has been per- matted to defy all Inw and rightin the suburbs of East St. Louls.
