Homo nnil r mlly ,
George Stephens , who was shot yesterday
morning , sank gradually all last evening and
died at 11 o'clock.
Ho lay at the Woman's Chrihtlan assocl i-
tlon hospital all day yesterday , fully con
scious , but hardly realizing his condition
nd with his mind not clear enough to en-
ble him to give any very rational account of
he shooting. Ho persisted In the state
ment that his wlfo did the shooting , but
ater developments Indicate that It was
iot her work , but that of her
on and Stsphens' stepson , Charles
Icnry Chapman , aged 15 years. Stephens
s well known In Council Bluffs and Omaha ,
.avlng been employed for several > ears as
.oil collector at the Omaha and Council Bluffs
motor bridge. He had but one enemy , drink ,
\bout a month ago his Indulgence In drink
: est him his place , and ever since then he
; as been on an extended spree , coming
ouie late at night , raising a disturbance
.mong the members of his family , or sleep
ing off his drunken stupor on the grass In
'ront ' of his home at 110 Fifth avenue.
He came home at 2 30 o'clock In the morn-
ng under the Influence of liquor , and found
he doors locked. He commenced hammering
t the windows and aroused his wife , who
efused to let him In. With an oath , Ste
hens declared that he would get In and kIl |
jls family , and then burn down the house.
lo had been keeping three loaded revolvers
n the house for some time past , and mem-
icrs ot his family were considerably alarmed ,
earing that he would carry his threat Into
jxecutlon. From the windows they watched
ills movements , and saw htm go Into the
noodshed at the rear of the house. He
Ighted a number of matches , and seemed
o be trying to set the shed on fire.
BOY FIRHD DELIBERATELY.
His stepson , young Chapman , seized one
f the revolvers , and with his sister , Rose
Stephen , aged 17 years , went out to the
hed. Seeing them coming , Stephens Jumped
o his feet and started toward them. The
'oung man aimed his revolver and fired two
ihots In rapid succession , both of them at
close range. One of them took effect In
Stephens' right side , near the front part of
lie abdomen , the other In the shoulder.
After the two shots had been fired , accord-
ng to the boy's statement , he and his elster
an Into the house , while Stephens ran
around to the front door. Mrs. Stephens
itarted out of the front door to go to the
esldence of John T. Stewart , about half a
block away , and Stephens ran after her. By
he tlmo they had gone a few feet , the boy
was again on hand , at the front door , with
Ills revolver. He fired at Stephens , but
'ailed ' to hit his target. Stephens went a
'ew ' feet further , and then lay down on the
; round , wliers ho was found a few minutes
ater by the police. He was picked up and
carried to the Kiel hotel , where Dr. V. L
Treynor was called to attend him. He or
dered that the wounded man be taken to
he Woman's Christian Association hospital.
Stephens said that It was his wlfo who
had fired the shot , and the woman was
placed under arrest and lodged In the city
ail. About an hour later the boy was also
arrested and put In Jail. When Justice
Walker held police court In the morning he
ordered Mrs. Stephens released on her own
recognizance , as It was evident that she had
had no part In the shooting.
The boy was called upon for a statement.
Ho admitted firing three shots at his step
father , and said ho did It to protect his
mother and prevent him from murdering the
family and burning the house. The boy Is
very bright , and told his story In a straight
forward way. Ho lived with John T , Stew
art during the first seven years of his life ,
but since the marriage of his mother to
Stephens , eight years ago , bad been living
at home. His father , ho says , had been
drunk for the past two weeks , almost con
tinually.
Colonel Dalley was engaged as attorney
'or ' the boy and his mother and during the
day secured a'bondsman for the boy , who
i\as released to appear next Saturday be
fore Justice Walker for a preliminary hear-
'ng.

A game of base ball was played yester
day afternoon between the Council Bluffs
High School Juniors and the second team of
the Iowa School for the Deaf which for
kicking the umpire and each other has not
been surpassed this year. In the first place
the High school fellows claimed that four
of the positions on the mute team were
filled by members ot the first team. Then
they Kicked because the mutes had chosen
the umpire , and they claimed that the um
pire was plugging against them , as usual ,
The umpire , among other things , overruled
Spauldlng's twenty-ninth rule and that
caused another howl. At the end of the
eighth Inning the Council Bluffs boys , after
three times threatening to withdraw on ac
count ot decisions that did not suit them ,
refused to play any more. As they left the
field the captain and umpire of the mutes
ran up and said they had heard one ot the
players called them liars. There
was nearly a pitched battle , but the High
school men got away without bloodshed.
The score was 1C to 6 at the end ot the
eighth Inning.

quarters for the order , and even he Is con-
Iderably more friendly to It than when he

leen looking after the bntercsts of the com

bly encouraged to believe that Council BluftJ
will come out winner In the race.
Ono thing which , It Is thought , will have
a great deal of weight in determining the
question finally Is the friendliness of the
owa lows to Institutions of this soil. Illi
nois and Indiana are much more rigid In
heir supervision of Insurance orderc , and
hero are very few states whose la s are
nore liberal than those of Iowa. The Order

olumns and begins with his arrival at ,
Sydney , where he was promptly- seen by
itr , Tonvllle , the governor's private eerc-
ary , who wns also executor under the will
of Sir Roger's father. He susms to have
accepted the swindler's Identity with hardly
nn Inquiry or doubt. Orton asserts that
at the tlmo he had no Idea of carrying out
ho fraud to Its end. He says : "All I
vanted was money. I had already pot seme
rom Cotteo Vand and expected 1,500 from
Lady Tlchborne.
"I was led on by circumstances and by
Istenlng to other people , who 'inld I was
Sir Roger , to lend people to believe that I
really was. But my Intention was , di
rectly I got the money , to leave Sydney and
go by boat to California and Join my brother
and that I should die In oblhlon and that
10 one would ever hear anything about me.
My brother Edmund , whom I had not seen
or eighteen years , was doing well In Call-
ornla , where he had a ranch. "
It happened that an old negro named
3ogle , who had been a body servant of Sir
loger's father , was living In Sydney and
called to see Orton , who writes : "When
saw this black chap I surmised at once
inRB the old servant Bogle by what Slado
md told me. The moment I got under the
arch I saw Bogle. I dismounted ctul wolk-
ng up to him , said : "Well , Bogle , whoever
would expect to find you hero ? "
"Oh , " salJ he , "I atn pleased to see you ,
3lr Roger , Indeed. "
"I did not know him from Adam , but I had
earned about the Tlchborno family In
Burko's Peerage , ' which Is In a library at
Gnuldborne , which enabled me to converse
with him about the members of the family
and how they were when he last saw them
Then after Bogle had recognized me as Sir
iloger I had no Idea ns to what I wns doing
Of course I got a great Jcal out of Bogle I
was pumping him all the time as to names
and habits nnd customs of the various mem-
jers of the family , and , Indeed , every ma-
: erlal thing about them. "
Orton got plenty of money In Sydney
'Gloves came In a few days to finance me
further , " ho writes. "He got Lcvl and Doltlssl ,
merchants of Sydney , to lend me $3,000. He
also got $1,200 of Thompson & Giles and
11,300 from a Mrs. Wood. She was the
widow of a man who had n largo second-hand
shop In Pitt street. All these people lent
mo money , for which I gave thtem bills on
Drummond & Co. In London. I did not know
the Drummonds , but heard them mentioned ,
and they wore the only bankers I knew In
London , with the exception of the Bank of
England "
Lady Tlchborne sent him $1,200 , but the
etter reached him after he left Sydney. He
sailed with his wlfo for Panama on the
steamer Rakal , under the names of Roger
and Lady Tlchborne. Arrived at Panama , he
concluded to go to New York , with the In-
.entlon of proceeding across the continent to
San Francisco.
"When I got to New York I met a Mr.
Jones , manager for Gordon & Gotch , well
< nown stationers. I put up at the Clarendon ,
'n those days the best hotel In the city. While
n New York , where I stayed a month , I got
[ o know a Mr. Gateway , a provision mer
chant , who was a friend of Mr. Jones , Later
on Mr. Gateway lent me , on my bill , $700
for three months. "
By this time Orton had made up Ma mind
to carry out the fraud. He sailed for Lon
don and stopped at a hotel which ho learned
from Bogle Sir Roger and his father ordi
narily frequented. He was accepted at once
ay the landlord as Sir Roger. Then ho went
to Paris to see Lady Tlchborne.
'On the morning following my arrival
Lady Tlchborno sent her Irish male serv
ant , Cohen , round to the hotel to inquire If
1 had arrived. About an hour afterward
Lady Tlchborno came round to the hotel
to see me. It was about 10 In the morning
I got up to breakfast that morning , but
after arising I became 111. The real cause
of my Illness I cannot thoroughly explain ,
but It must have been due to the fact that
I was overexcited at the prospect of being
confronted with Lady Tlchborno , whom I
did not know. Feeling 111 , I laid down on
the bed In my clothes. Leete came In and
told mo that Lady Tlchborne had arrived.
" 'All right , I am ready to receive her. '
"When Lady Tichborno entered the room
I was lying on the bed with my face to
the wall. In that position my back would
bo to Lady Tlchborne. She was In the
room some minutes before I knew she was
there. I heard Holmes call : 'Sir Roger ,
you mother Is hero. ' Of course I turned
over and slid my legs down , resting on the
sldo of the bed. She looked at me and
then came forward and kissed me and said.
Oh , Roger , I am so glad to see you. '
"She was full of emotion and seemed
much affected. Holmes got her a chair and
she sat down alongside of me and we con
versed together. She could see that I was
really 111 , and she asked me what was the
matter. I said I did not know what It
was , my face was as red as a turkey cock's
and the blood seemed to be rushing to my
head , which she noticed. She was kind
and attentive to me and wo chatted to
gether freely , but I don't think the con
versation that passed between us then was
Important "
The confession goes on to show Lady
Tlchborno's unquestioning acceptance of
him and her solicitude because of his Ill
ness. She sent for her own doctors and
put his feet In a mustard bath.
"I think she kissed me about every five
minutes , on the check , " he writes. "She
was very affectionate Indeed , and remained
with me the whole tlmo that day until 10
o'clock at night , having her meals In my
private sitting room. She was staying In
the Rue do Mamurln. In the course ot the
day she conversed with mo freely and asked
me to tell her about my life In Australia and
other parts of the world. She asked me how
I had been getting on and what I had been
doing. She Inquired whether I had gotten
the $3,000 she sent me to Sydney , and I told
her I had not , as I had left before It arrived.
She told mo she allowed Alfred ( Sir Roger's
brother , who was a baby then ) , $100 a week ,
but now that you have come home , of course
I shall allow you the same sum. She ac
cordingly did so , and this she continued to
do right up to the time of her death. She
also gave Holmes Instruction to toke a house
for myself and my w'fe at Croydon. She In
quired very kindly after my wlfo and child.
I told her they were both in London , living
with Mrs. Holmes during our absence. She
expressed a great derlre to see the child. I
think on that day , but , at all events on the
next , I gave her a short story of my life In
Australia , telling her how I had been living
She gave mo $100 before I left Paris , and she
paid all the hotel expenses of Holmes , Leete
and myself. This was In January , 1807 ,
when I was In Paris. "

PARIS , June 1. The discussion of Figaro's
revelations respecting the corruption of depu
ties and senators by the South France rail
road occasioned a stormy sitting of the Cham
ber today , during which the government
narrowly escaped defeat. Rouanet , the so
cialist deputy , accused the government of
protecting the Inquiry Into the ecandals In
order to avoid prosecuting ex-ministers guilty
of accepting bribes amounting to $220,000
from the railroad nearly three jears ago.
Since the Trench law takes no account of
bribery older than three years Rouanet In
vlted the government to proeecuto Immedi
ately. Trarleux , minister of Justice , saU the
charges were unproven , except with regard
to a senator. Magnler objected to the report
of the commission , as the inquiry into the
scandals U rot > ft completed. Jaures denied
the mlnlutei's itatement , producing a copy
of the report , which produced a great sensa
tion. Goblet's motion blaming the action of
the government was only lost by twenty-five
votes. A resolution blaming the deputies for
meddling with financial affairs afterward
carried by121 votes against fifteen , a moral
defeat ot the government ,
