Ciiicaoo, Oct. 28. Anollier crank bag
followed the bent of hia mania, and Car
ter II. Harrlnon, five times Mayor of
ChlcHKO, ai.d one of the best known
men in the went, lie dead at hi borne,
231 South Abland boulevard. Tbree
biillutH entered his body, two making
wound iufllcient to cauw) death. The
murder wa couuuitted by Eugene
1'atrick Prendertat, a patier carrier,
who had declared that Mayor Harrmon
bad promiwd to make him corporation
counitel and bad not kept hi word.
Thin, he Raid, wa hi aole reaon for
committing the crime.
The only neraoti io the house at the
time of the ithootlntf, bemdes Mr. Uarri
un, wa hi ton, William Preaton Har
rlnon, ikihI 25 year, and the servant.
Shortly before 8 o'clock the door beil
rang, and when Mary Hanaen. a domes
tic, opened the door ahe wa confronted
bv a man atniut 5 feet. 5 incite IiIkIi,
amooth (haven, with clean-cut feature
lit up by a pair of dark eyea.
"I Mr. Harrison in?" asked the man,
In a Quiet pleasant voice.
"Yes. sir." replied the iti", a abe
tli re w open the door to admit bta en
trance.
"I would like to ee him' please,"
said the man, a be walked toward the
back end of the ball.
Mayor Harrison waa in the dining
room, which opened Into the rear of the
ball, and hearing the man ask lor him
stepped Into the hall and walked toward
Prendeiyast. Without saying a word
the murderer drew a revolver and com
menced to Bre. He pulled the trigger
but three times, and every bullet bit
ita mark. One bullet shattered Harri
son' left hand, another passed into the
lower right side of the abdomen, making
wound that would bave been mortal
within a few daya. The third bullet
entered hi chest slightly above tbe
leart, and this wound was the immedi
ate cause of death .
Aa soon as Prenderuast beiian to fire
Harrison turned and walked rapidly
toward the dintngroom. lie passed
through the room and into thebntlei's
riant rv where, weakened bv loss of
I J I -w
blood, he fell to the floor, rrenuergaat
did not follow his victim, but placed the
revolver in bis pocket with the same de
liberation that had marked all of bis
action and started toward the door
Just aa he waa passing out William
Preston Harrison came tearing down
the stairs and tbe family coachman ran
into the rear end ol the hall. The cries
Marv Hantien directed the eon to
where his father lay, but the coachman
waa after other game. He bad a revol
ver of his own and as quick as he real
iaed what had occurred he sent a bullet
oft..r tim iliHimDcarimt form of the
murderer.
A second time he fired, but both bul
lets went wild. Running to the door
the coachman prepared to continue bos'
tilitiea, but several people were just
then enterina to learn the cause of the
(hooting, and by the time the coachman
reached the sidewalk the murderer had
iliHannenred.
, ,
When vonnir Harrison came down
stairs and learned the cause of the Bhoot-
ncr be turned in the burglar alarm, and
even before he reached his father's side
a patrol wagon filled with officers from
Lakestreet station was dashing toward
the Mavor'B house. By the time the of
fillers arrived all trace of the murderer Had
beon lost, and even before the Mayor
breathed his last ofllcera from every eta
tion in the city were on the lookout for
the murdeier.
Every possible effort was made to se
cure medical attendance for Mr. Harri'
son, but when Dr. Lyman, the first
physician to arrive, reached the Mayor's
side he was a dead man.
About twentv-five minutes after tbe
shooting Sergeant Frank McDonald was
Htamlimr in the office of the Dcsplaines
street Police station. Every available
officer had already hurried out to work
on the case and McDonald waa prepar
ing to follow. The door was pushed gen
tlv mien and in walked a small, smooth
shaven, poorly dressed man, carrying a
revolver In his hand. He shook like a
mn with Dalsev : bis face was white and
drawn ; great drops of perspiration chaaed
.-h other down his face, and nis louer-
tr., liir.ha aenmed scarcely able to hold
him up. Looking at McDonald straight
in the eve, he said :
"I did it." . , ,
"You did it?" asked McDonald.
"Yes, I did."
"Did what?" said tbe officers, aa he
laid on the man's shouldor and with the
other took the reyolver.
"I shot Mayor Harrison, and that la
what I shot him with," wa the reply.
What made you do H7" asked
McDonald.
"Ha said be would made me Corpora
tion Counael, and be did not; that is
what I shot him for."
Prenderifast wa trembling so that he
could scarcely stand, and the officer led
him to a chair and asked him a few
more question, to which Prendergast
would only make trie reply he ha! first
given as to the cause of the shooting.
He said that after leaving Harrison's
house be had taken a streetcar and
started toward the Desplaines-street sta
tion with the object of giving himself up.
"Prendergast is crazy," said Corra
tion Counsel Kraus, who wa perhaps
the closest friend Mayor Harrison bad.
"I know hitn well, and he called at my
office and told me he was going to be
aooointed mv successor. Tne man was
so oaloablv out of his mind that I did
not consider it worth while to talk seri
ously w ith him. I spoke to the Mayor
about it and he said he bad received
threatening letters from the fellow, bnt
he paid do attention to them, aa tbe
man was insane."

Tbi World'! Fair Cloud
Chicago, Oct. 30. The official life of
the world' fair is ended. This evening
waa to have been one of dazzling bril
liancy but the awful and untimely death
of Mayor Harrison changed all that.
Appropriate action wa taken at the
memorial meeting in festival hall in
memory of Chicago's beloved chief mag-
Rtraie and all other ceremonies were
abandoned. The great ciowd in attend
ance, sorre of whom had come from far-
distant states to assist at rejoicing over
the successful ending of the great exposi
tion, fillinir every seat and occupying
everv foot of standing room, was hushed.
- . . i
President Palmer, of the national com-,
mission, presided. Rev. Dr. Barrows
delivered a prayer and read an address
prepared by President Higinbotham,
of the fair directory, previous to the
mayor's taking off. This wa thought
best, because it was so consonant with
the spirit of the meeting. After the
speech, appropriate resolutions concern
ing the death of Mayor Harrison and
paying to his memory a tnouie oi re
stiect and admiration, were adopted.
Engrossed copies will be Bent to the
familv of Mr. Harnaon. Then President
Thomas W. Palmer, of the national com
mission, announced that, in yiew of the
sad circumstances which brought the
assemblage together, the closing of the
fair would be marked only by a salute
of cannon aud the hauling down ol
flairs. When that bad taken place, be
declared, in obedience to the act of con
gress, that the exposition waa officially
closed.
tHB TOTAL ATTENDANCE.
The total paid attendance at the fair
from the opening to the close has been
21,458,910. Tbe total free admissions,
which ini lude employee of all kinds, ex
hibitors, concessionaires, etc., have been
5,953,818. Today's admissions were
242,575 of which 208,173 paid.
Th. OnUide Attendance.
Chicago, Oct 30. The Chicago roads
were busy today in figuring up the
world's fair traffic since tbe opening ol
the fair. With most of them the con
clusions arrived at were but estimates,
based on the most reliable data at hand.
It will be a month or so before strictly
accurate figures can be had. So far as
the figures at hand go, they show that
the number of people brought into
Chicago by the twenty-one passenger
lines ending here during the fair period
were, in round numbers, 3,336,000. This
allows 350,000 each for the five leading
passenirer lines; 300.000 each for the
next five ; 150,000 each for the next
group of five, and 50,000 each for the
six weak lines. Allowieg that eacn
nf thesn Dassenuers visited the fair five
limes would account for an attendance
of 15.755,000 which would be a good pro
portion of the outside visitors. It would
leave but a little over 5,000,000 visit
from Chicago.
Silver in the Treasury, '
Washington, Oct. 30. Senator Sher
man has received from Secretary Carlisle
reply to his letter concerning the
seiirniorage now in the treasury. The
secretary says that, of the treasury
notes issued under the Sherman act,
$52,305,840 have, upon demand of the
holders, been redeemed in gold and
JG.224,192 in silver dollars. The secre
tary's letters shows the seigniorage in
the treasury, carried under the bherman
Aft. amounts to $6,976,098. The silver
bullion on hand October 1 amounted to
137.606.257 fine ounces costing $124,
501,428. With the probable purchases
of October. Carlisle thinks there will be
139,666,257 ounces of silver bullion in
the treasury November l.the cost of
V,;,.h will be 125.888.929. and the
coinage value $180,320,008, giving
seigniorage of $54,431,080

Wasiiihctos. Nov. 1. Silver pur
chased by the government ceased today.
The purpose for which Cleveland called
congress in extraordinary session was ac
complished at 4 :25 this afternoon, when
he affixed his signature to the bill to re
peal unconstitutionally the purchasing
clause of the Sherman law. When the
bill reached the house from the senate
there was an attempt to filibuster bnt
the silver men failed to keep the floor
hot with notions and Speaker Crisp over
whelmed them by putting the pending
motion to order the previous question.
It carried with a roar. The filibusters
had been caught napping and nothing
remained for them except to submit.
For thirty minutes, under the rules, fol
lowed a rattle of oratory amid the
confusion Jand excitement. At it
conclusion a vote was taken on
Bland's free coinage substitute. The
majority against it waa 73. Then came
the onal vote on concurring in the sen
ate amendments. The vote stood 193
for concurrence and 94 against. When
the original bill passed the bouse,
August 28, the vote stood 201 to 100, so
that, although the total vote today is
smaller, the proportion is practically the
same.
Washington, Oct. 30. The long con
flict in the senate over the bill to repeal
the purchasing clause of the Sherman
act came to an end today with a victory
on the side for repeal. The vote on the
passage of the bill as amended (that is,
of the Yoorhies substitute) waa ayes 43,
noes 32. There was no exultation nor
excitement of any kind oyer the result,
but there was probably a feeling of
relief on all sides that the end of tbe
struggle had been reached. Tomorrow
the secretary of the senate will appear
at the bar of the house with message
informing that body that the bill has
been passed with an amendment, and
requesting the conenrrence of the house
in that amendment. Tbe message and
bill may remain on the speaker's desk
until it is convenient to have it laid
before the body, or it may be referred to
a committee, or tbe senate amendment
may be concurred in without reference
to any committee, and by a direct vote
of tbe house. Not only was the repeal
fight brought to a termination today,
but so also was the abnormally long
legislative day of Tuesday, the 17th of
October. Tbe debate on repeal was
continued for sixty-one days, during
which five volumes of the Congressional
Record have been filled with speeches,
amounting in tbe aggregate to about
20,000,000 words,
THE BILL AS REPORTED.
The full text of the repeal bill aa re
ported to the senate from the financial
committee is:
"That so much of the act approved
July 14, 1890, entitled 'An act directing
the purchase! of silver bullion and the
lasue of treasury notes, and for other
purposes.' as directs the secretary of
the treasury to purchase from time to
time silver bullion to the aggregate
amount of 4,500,000 ounces, or so much
thereof as may be offered in each month,
at the market price therefor, not exceed
ing $1 for 371,25 grains pure silver, and
to issue in payment for Buch purchases
treasu'y notes of the United States, bo
and the same is hereby Tepealexl.
And it is hereby declared to be the
policy of the United States to
continue the use of both gold and silver
as standard money, and to coin both
gold and silver into money of equal
intrinsic and exchanable vulue, such
equality to be secured through interna
tional agreement or by such safeguards
of legislation as will insure the mainten
ence of a parity iu the value of coins of
the two metals and the equal power
of every dollar at all times in the
markets and in tne payment oi
debts. And it is hereby further declared
that the efforts of the government
should be 8teadily directed to the es
tablishment of sucii a sale system oi
biroetalism as will maintain at all
times the equal power of every dollar
coined or issued by the United States
in the markets and in the payment ot
debts."

And BtlU Another Crank.
Kc. Ynnir. Oct 30. Edwin Gould.
second son of the late Jay Gould and
co-heir of the latter's millions, had his
first startling experience with a crank
this afternoon. Al z O'cioca, as uouiu
was Bitting in his private omce, a stian
hilv dressed man entered, walked to
his desk and said: "Give me $5000,
and give it to me quick, or give me
a tip on the maraet." uouiu asaeu nun

stepping to a Bide aoor, summoned
Detective Clark, who quickly took th
young man to police headquarters.
