Frenzied by supposed wrongs, W. Q. Hill, an ex-attache of the 8tate comptroller's office, this morning a few minutes paat ten o'clock, entered the private office of State Comptroller B. M. Love and killed him by meana of two well directed bullets from a large calibre revolver. As Hill, turned to nee be waa intercepted by Chief Ulerk Stev ens, of the department, who engaged him in scuffle during which wire re volver was accidentally discharged. The ballet entered Hill's abdomen causing a wound from which he died at 3 o'clock this afternoon, three nours after the death of the man whose life he aoughL Thus, In brief, Is told the atory of the double tragedy, the first assassination ever enromciea in tne Texas capitoL The ahootlng haa thrown the town and State into a com motion, but the death of the aa- aassin, aa well aa hla victim, has closed the atory In one chapter. As to what caused the ahootlng no one can explain, other man tnai it waa the act of a madman. Hill had been an employe of the comptroller's office for ten yean preceding Love's term of office. He waa left out by Mr. Love when the latter took charge, and it ia presumed that thla fact preyed upon hla mind until he went insane. This morning he went to thecapitol, entered Mr. Love's private office, spoke to him cheerfully, shook hands' and handing him aletterto read, sat down at the invitation of the comp troller. No sooner than Mr. Love had begun to read the letter than Hill sprang to his feet and fired twoahota into the body of Mr. Love, one taking effect just above and the other imme diately below the heart Mr. Love screamed, dropped the letter and sprang half way forward towards his assassin, then gasped and fell back ward. Hill, seeing that his purpose was ac complished, turned to make foi the door. He waa intercepted by Chief Clerk Stevens, who grappled with him and was wrestling with him, when Hill's pistol was accidentally discharged, the bullet entering Hill's abdomen. He fell in 8tevena' arms and was lowered to the floor, where he lay until taken to the hospital. He died at 3 o'clock this afternoon. Love waa given all medical attention poaail ble, but died within an hour after the ahootlng. Mr. Hill was a quiet, gentlemanly person, and waa never known to b addicted to any bad habits. At the time of the ahootlng he was holding e good position here In the city, so than dire want could- not have instigated the frenzy that prompted the ahootlng. It la the opinion of all that it waa the act of an Insane man. Immediately after the ahootlng and while Hill was till lying In the corridor, a bottle of .laudanum waa taken from his pocket, and reaching for It he aald : "Let me take that and die easy." This has led many to believe that he contemplated suicide following hla ahootlng of the comptroller. Both men left families. Comptroller Love's remains were shipped to-night to his old home in Limestone county for Interment and Hill's remains will be buried here to-morrow. The letter submitted by Mr. Hill was as follows: 'Dear 81r Public office la a public trust Public officers are created for the servlcea of the people and not for the agrrandixement of a few individ uals. The practice of bartering de partment clerkships for private gain la a disgrace to the public service, and in this nefarious traffic you are a record-breaker. "You have robbed the State em ployee and your incompetent adminis tration has prompted others to rob the8tale. "The man who, claiming to be a Christian, deprives others of employ ment without cause Is a base hypo crite and a tyrant 'The greatest mind that ever gave Its wisdom to the world ; the mind of all others most capable of 'umpiring the mutiny between right and wrong.' aald, 'you take my life when you do take from me the meana by which I live.' - - If that be true, you are a murderer of the deepeat crime. Although I can not help myself, before laying life's burdena down. I shall strike a blow- feeble though it be for the good of my deserving fellow men.

As each American ship passed along the line of German vessels the Ger mans cheered and their banda played "America." Admiral Prince Henry, of Prussia, on the bridge of the Ger man flagship, stood at salute until the last ahlp had passed. The American officers, though in terested In the proceedings here every day of their stay, were glad to get away from the necessity of changing uniforms three or four times a day and from the long perloda of duty. Bear Admiral Cotton and the captains of the American ablpa also were re lieved to depart without any untoward incident having occurred. They, with Ambassadors Tower and Meyer, had been dally In contact with Emperor Wlllianxnnd were lmpreaaed with hia earnestneaa and sincerity. They all said that they felt he could have done nothing more to ahow hla appreciation of the visit of the squadron to Kiel or hia desire to win American good will. The preaenceof the squadron, from the aide of the German public, la regarded as a demonstration of friend liness, especially aa the battleship Kearsarge was sent at five days' notice to join the squadron and alao because the administration at Washington ex Dressed definite sentiments towards Germany through Ambassador Tower'a speech. Personally, the Kmperor'a bearing was unaffected and even jovial. He haa often spoken with sin gular openness. The Emperor started for Eckern foerde on board the Meteor at 7 A. M.

" , MEN WORKING IN THE PIT Tweetyetiht Bodies Have" Been Btoarht Oat All Horribly Mantled Fire Started la tbe Mine Heart ; - reading Sceies. 9t telegraph to the Morning star Hanna, Wyo., June 30. Probably the worst disaster in the history of Wyoming occurred here to-day when a terrific explosion ' of fire damp in Union Pacific Mine No. 1 ahut off the means of escape of two hundred men who were working In the pit Tbe fire, which started immediately, is de fying all efforts of the rescuers and there ia alight hope of saving any of the men. Twenty-eight bodies of those working near the mouth of the mine have been brought out, all of them horribly mangled and some still showing slight evidences of life. Tbe scenes at the mine are heart-rending. The Union Pacific Bailroad Company, which owns the mines, haa a large force working to reach the Imprisoned men. The flamea seem to be abating and there Is hope of getting most of the bodies out by morning. So tense is the excitement that no one seems able to say how the disaster occurred. The supposition is that a careless miner allowed his lamp to come in contact with fire damp. . The mine was not fired as stated in the earlier reports, but the explosion was terrific and completely shattered the timbers of the main shaft and numerous entrances, filling the work ing with debris and those of the miners that were not killed outright by tbe explosion were buried alive. The ex plosion was heard for many miles around and attracted people from the adjoining settlements. Huge timbers and railroad iron were hurled three hundred feet from the mouth of the shaft. Superintendent E. 8. Brooks and a large force of men began the work of removing the debris from the shaft that they might reach the en tombed miners. Their progress in the mine was blocked by the foul gaaea and several timea they were forced to return to the aurface. All day the rescuing party worked, the force being increased from time to time by the arrival of ranchmen and others from nearby aettlementa and by those of a relief train aent out of Rawlins, which arrived at 3 o'clock In the afternoon. About 1 o'clock this afternoon four men were taken out alive and half an hour later they were followed by forty-two othera. Many were unconscious and had to-be car ried from the workings. Several are lu a serious condition, but It is be lieved all will recover. Two hundred and eighty-two men went down in the mine , at 7 o'clock this morning and up to a late hour to night only forty-eight have been ac counted for. Of this number two are dead. It was some time after the ex plosion occurred that the first man was brought to the aurface. He waa followed by others until one o'clock when the last of the forty-eight was brought out The rescuers were un able to penetrate further Into the mine as It was necessary to make another opening to permit fresh air to reach the lower levels.

James, of this city, chair man of the Chamber of Commerce Committee to secure the encampment for Wrightsyille, addressed a letter to Adjutant General Boyster yesterday asking what . inducements, if any, could bring the regiment this way, but Col. James Is of the opinion that tbe movement was started too late. He kindly allows a publication of the following extract from a letter re ceived from Gen. Boyster, which throws light upon the reason for a choice of Morehead : "The Indications are that your regi ment will be aent to Morehead about the 22nd of July. I find it necessary to exercise the strictest economy in the disbursement of the money available for camp purposes in order to give each regiment an encampment this year and In the selection of placea for holding the encampmenta, the. cost of transportation, aa you know, enters largely Into the matter of expenses. In view of these conditions it was Im possible to select Wrlghtavllle for your regiment. The transportation to Morehead ia much less than to Wrightsyille." ATLANTIS TRUST AND BANKING CO.
