A gentleman who escaped from the
wreck said:
"The train was going at a lively rate
of speed. The passengers appeared a
happy crowd, manv of them ladies,
chatting and laughing after a day's
pleasure at the Perkcs county fair. I
was viewing the country through which
we werf- passing, when thero was a
terrible crash. I was hurled from my
seat, while the cars rolled down the
twenty-foot embankment, and I was
thrown from one side of the car to the
other. One end of the car went into
water and I was thrown against the
side of the car with a force that partial
ly stunned me. I quickly recover
ed myself and -managed to
climb upon the seats on
that side of the car which lay against
the embankment. I was a prisoner in
the car, unable to get out. Around me
were human beings struggling in tho
water, screaming in their fright, and
some almost dragged me back into the
water again. A few saved themselves
as I did and the remainder struggled in
the water and then quietly sunk out of
sight."

In m Interview Mr. Bullen gives the fol
lowing particulars in the case:
w hir-d H'ran abotit the middle of June."
said Mr. Ruilen yfifcrta? "H13 salary was 13
a week. He was not a bookkepftf, but ra did
some weighing and recorded the figures He
was not of much use to us bat he attended to
his duties all right up to about July 4. when he
first began to appear uneasy. I being nearly
of the same agC a5 hln'elfj ha confided his
troubles to me. He told me' ns was ngsged
be" mrrld to a girl in Madison, MI33 Smith,
He also furnished ?rfl xnth all the details Of
their first acquaintance at collrg and how his
acquaintance had ripened 'Into ictinraC;' s"d
promise to marry. Ho,howed me letters writ
ten by the girl, from which it clearly appeared
that a too intimate lelatiod had oxloted be
tween the two for a short time at leas!.
'Then he showed m a letter from her in
which she tohl him she was going to be mar
ried to W. M. Langdon two days later. A? oon
as he received this letter he wiote to the father
of the girl in Madi-on and also to her brother,
her brother-ln law and the husband-elect, teU
rig them that he held in his possession letter
proving the girl to have been unchaste 1th
him and strongly hinting that it would take
considerable money from somebody to pur
chase his silence.
'When Langdon received Bevan's letter de
man.llug money as the price of his silence the
young hilsbacd telegraphed: "Will be In Chi
cago to-morrow.' hec Sevan read this pies
sage he immediately prepared Jf trouble.
He possessed an old pistol, but fearing to ill
uiwn it he asked me to lend him my revolver.
refused. Aq he appeared in the
Goer of our office Bvan saw him
and ra-he"d to" hi? desk for his gun, which he
shoved in his pocket. F01 a moment the two
men glared at each other, and then 11HC a flash
each had his pistol aimed at the othet's head.
I had been watching for some such move and
before either could ttr l rommanded them to
stop, at the same time coveriilii them with ray
own revolver and threatening to shoot If they
did not iti-tantlr put up their weapons Their
faces were white and set la hard lines and mur
der glared from their eyes. Slowly thO two
men lowered their guns and then Langdon
hoar-ely asked Sevan if he possessed letters
written b? Mr; Iiamrdon. Bevan went to his
desk, drew out a packet of lettera and with
Langdon standing rigidly at his side read them
aloud. Langdon made an attempt t,o deny
their identity, but turned pale, and without a
word wheeled around and left the office.
"A few days sffr this" continued Mr. Bat
ten, "the brother-in-law of Mr. Langdon, a law

of the negotiations So far as I know, Bevan

and her friend But he kept on hophfg that
his price of silence would finally be paid him.
As time went by and no money caiac Bevan be
came more and more morose, neglected his
work and seemed to be completely unbalanced.
He often made threats in my hearing that if he
did not get his il.OJO he would expose the girl
and the whole family one of the most highly
re-pected in Madison, I believe. I strongly ad-vl-ed
him to accept the J500 offered him and be
.-atisiled with that. But he was stubborn and
would not do it. As he kept on neglecting his
work, and finally became quite obstreperous,
my father discharged him one week ago last
Monday. He then went straight to Iowa, evi
dently with the intention of murdering both
Mr-. Langdon and her husband. I had heard
him make frequent threat- to do this many

FUNERAL SERVICES.
Touching Scenes at the Obsequies of Sev
an's Fair Young Victim.
M iniso.v, Wis, sept. 19. At 3 o'clock
Wedne-day afternoon the funeral services
over the remains of Mrs. W. M. Landgon,
whose young life was cruelly cut short by
an assassin's bullet at Grand Mound. Iowa,
where held at the homo of her parents, Mr.
and Mr. G. W. Smith of this city. There wa
a large attendance. The cn-ket wa nearly
hidden In a sea of floral offerings which came
from a score of sources. Rev. M. Miner, of
the Congregational church at which the dead
woman had been a regular attendant, con
ducted the service-, reading portions of
scripture full of sympathy and hope and
speaking briefly of the life and ultimely
cud of the young woman. He
treated the causo of her death
with extreme delicacy and devoted most of
his remarks to words of commiseration
with the bereaved. There were no mu
sical exercises either at the home or at the
grave, this feature being omitted for fear
of too greatly agitating the broken-hearted
mother, who wa tos-ting about on her sick
bed in another part of the house. The pallbearer-
were Mo-e Klauber. Dr. E. J. Harf ,
John G. Howell. William II. Wilt, Robert
Stightam and Frank C. Ram-dell, all of
Madi-on. A large procession followed the
lemains to Forest Home cemetery. The
husband of the murdered woman broke
completely down into a faint jut before the
service opened. Thursday evening Eugene
C. Crowley and Miss Minnie L. Smith, the
only remaining unmarried sister of the dead
woman, were married. The wedding In
vitations had been withdrawn and no one
w present except relatives of the bride
and groom. Rowley Is the young lawyer
who last July prevented Bevan from shoot
ing Mrs. Langdon by seizing his arm as he
was in the act of pulling a rex-olver from
his pocket in the smith home here.
Johnstone's Latest Feat.
Chicago, Sept. 19. Paul Alexander John
stone, the mind-reader, performed yester
day afternoon a feat which, to all appear
ances, disproves the theory that man pos
sesses only five senses, and also the belief
that mind-reading Is really a species of
muscle-reading. In the presence of a large
audience at Wellington hotel. Johnstone
wa- blindfolded, his ears and nostril
stuffed with cotton and a lighted cigar
placed la his mouth, to de-troy for the time
being hearing, tight, smell and taste, and
thick kid gloves were placed on hi hands
He then requested the proprietor of the
hotel to stand behind him and think of the
combination of the safe. This was done,
and. with.mt contact with the gentleman,
the mind-reader turned correctly to the
numbers and opened the safe.
Lurts Girls to Perdition.
IvDiANAroLi. Sept. 19. Instructions
have been Js-ued to the police and detective
forces to look out for a woman who is now
known to make periodical visits to this city

home presumably for Immoral purposes. She
has made three trip here within the past six
months and has taken away seventeen girls,
whom she Induced to leave with promises
of steady imploymcnt as seamstresses,
teachers and hotel employes. The woman
Is described as about 43 years old, always
handsomely dressed and stops at tho best
hotels. On her first trip to this city she
took six girls to Mexico. On the second,
five to Bozeman, Mont., and her last trip
was to Seattle, Wash., with six girls. Out
of the seventeen unfortunates, five were to
be school teachers. There is sufficient
evidence In the hands of the officers to
convict the woman If they can effect her
arrest.
