The Benton County Scandal ' Adulten ENDS IN A VERY TRAGIC MANNER. Full Special Report by Journal" Reporter. The DR. APPLEWHITE'S CRIME Corvallis. Muy 12. Dr. J. M. Ap p'ewhite.au Agricultural College regent, and well-kuowu man throughout the state, recently indicted by the grand jury, charged with adultery with Mre. Lueinda Keuyon, wife of Charles Ken you, which case fs now in the supreme c urt for Us ruling on demurrer, is a fugitive frpm justice, for attempting to take the life of Qharles Keuyon. On yesterday, while Kenyon was in town attending to his usual business, he re ceived a very threatening letter from Applewhite, and upon the advise of his friends armed himself before leav ing town with his wife late in the afternoon. Mr. Kenyon and his wife drove in their farm wagon towatd home, and Mr. Kenyon alighted at u farm gate, about half a mile from his home to open it, leaving bis wife in the wagon, Before be opened the gate, however, Applewhite, who had secret ed himself thereabouts, knowing they would come that way, sprang out from behind a tree and said to Kenyen: "Now,, you g d a I have got you," and opened fire upon him, firing as rapidly as he could, Applewhite's right band being already crippled." Meanwhile Kenyon hurried to bio wagon where-be bad left bis cartridges and as soon. as be could load bis pistol returned Ore. Some .twenty five shots are said to have been fired. Applewhite finally succeeded in getting to where Mrs. Kenyon was and held her lb front of hlmselfas a shield and Kenyon ceased firing. Thereupon Applewhite compelled Mre. Kenyon to go with him and they left 'the place rapidly on foot. Mr Kenyon was shot once in the leg above the knee but not serious ly hurt. The report reached Corvallls at about 8 o'clock and the a her 1(1 and a possee of men immediately started for the scene of battle In search of the fugitives. At midnight news reached town that one trace of them- bad been found,, ofotbiug on a wire fence, where tbey had climbed over, and it was (bought that tbey were within a ten acre tract then surrounded. Sheriff D. A. Oiborn is now on the ground with a large party of deputies and the wire has been liberally used to points throughout the valley to bo'd Applewhite and Mrs. Kenyon. Apple white is about six feet tall; light com plected; has a small moustache; v. Ill weigh over two hundred; right band thumb gone. FINDING THE CORPSE. J. M. Applewhite and the corpse of Mrs. Kenyon were found atD o'clock today. Applewhite says Mrt. Ken yon was accidentally s.b,ot by himself, in the fray with her husband at the gite, and be, finding that she would not live, administered poison to end her lire. Applewhite has been brought to his home, with a large gash cut In tils throat, and also on his wrists. In cutting the artery of his wrjet be also cut the tendons, which prevented blm from doing further violence to himself. A coroner's inquest will be held tola afternoon over the body of Kenyon. Applewhite is under arrest and will live. He seems perfectly rational, but bisrlends Bay beiscruzy. Mob vio lence Is threatened, but the officers will probably prevent lynch law. The place where the parties were found wa a desperate sight. Burglcal instrument and physician's medicines were thrown around, and Applewhite was one mass of blood, the stain of the roost foul murder known In Benton county. A TERRIBLE SCENE. The bodies were found In a brunhy ravine half a mile from the scene of the ... .!,. Thv law tide by side. The woman was dead from the effects ofa' Ufvr..w. ... -. -- w twenty grain doso of morphine and Applewhite was suffering from the ef fects of a dose of tho same drug, with two gashes from a pocket Knife la his nsck and-cuts in each wrist. He made an attempt to open his arteries. He was entirely conscious, talked freely and said he bad tried to kill Kenyon but meant no harm to the woman. When he found aho was shot he ad ministered poison to her aud to him s If. He attempted to use his revolve r when tho officers approached, '.but the cutting of his wrist tendons rendered him powerless. ' FUR1HER DETAILS. Dr. J. M.

Baking Powder SILVER AND ENGLAND. The Lodge amondment to tho tarlfl bill was tabled by a straight party vote. The purposo of that amondmeut to the Democratic roveuuo bill was to force Great Britain to a realization of the fact that closing their mints to the coinage of silver was a vicious discrim ination against an important product of tho United States. Three-fourths of all tho silver produced in the whole world is mined in North America and the bulk of it In our country. It is our greatest coin product. It Is as Im portant us all but two or three agri cultural products. It Is far more im portant becauso the silver states are not rcat agricultural or manufacturing states as a rule. It Is tho polloy of tinglaud, Germany and India to do press the price of tho Amorlcan silver product. So long as thoso governments con tinue to exclude silver from their mints and Insist upou a siuglo gold standard, they will dopress tho valuo of our sil ver, aud with it the valuo of all Amor lcan export produots. That la undoubt edly tho purposo of those countries in pursuiug their polloy of hostility to America's silver product. It has boon highly successful, as tho prlco of silver has fallou from $1.00 per ounco In the first year of Harrison's administration to about &9 conts per ouuco ut present. The hostility of Wall street and tho Cleveland administration to sllvor necessitated tho suspeuslon of sliver coinage and silver purchases In out country, and by so doing has played right Into the hands of tho pro-British com hi no to deprcsss silver aud drive it out of their minis. Tho Lodge nmendment forced rocogf nltlon of this great fact. The pooplo of tho United Stales will ono day understand that thoso countries have no moral right to expect to trado in our markets upon equal terms with countries that do not exoludo silver from their mints. The proposition to enact rocrlmlnatlvo duties In return is a just one, and In lino with tho great polloy of International reciprocity that was Introduced by Blaine for tho pro tection and extension of American commerce. It is by that polloy alone that our country can hold hor own or achieve predominance In tho foreign commerce of the world. The Demo crutlo senators showed their hostility to that doctrine by voting solidly against the amondment. I , J ,, , ! Democratic uncertainty in political appointments leaves tho Democratic parly helpless to do political battle. Democratic uncertainty on finance and tho tariff leaves It no principles to con tend for.
