Muideier ot Cora Orcss at Uoiildsboro
yesterday, who is still at Jaige. Is
dark-skinrctl, aqulllno nose, black
piercing cjos and Jet black hair Is
Kild to boot Indian descent.
Achilles, known as Chilo Felker,
a married man, who lius In
dian blood in his veins, shot and
killed 20-yenr-nld Cora Grew, his
cousin, at Gouldsboro, this county,
yesterday. Ho loved tho sirl and up
on her refusal to marry him the fiery
nature of tho man mastered lilm and
ho deliberately shot her first with a
revolver and when she fell from the
wound in her head, Felker fired a
charge of buckshot from a double
barrelled gun, the charge entering tho
body of tho young woman. She died
instantly.
Felker then attempted to shoot the
mother of tho pirl, who witnessed the
murder, but airs. Gross threw him to
the floor before ho could fire. The
murdeier, after a struggle, escaped
and took to the woods. He Is still at
large.
Tho tragedy stands unique in local
criminal records. Felker is related to
the Cress family by his mother, who
is a sister to Mrs. Rudolph Gress,
mother of tho dead Kill Ills father
was a half-breed Indian. The son
shows the Indian by dark skin, high
cheek bones and black, piercing eyes.
About a year asM Felker, who is
HO years of age, visited the Gress fam
ily at their farm house in Gouldsboro.
There ho met the oldest daughter.
Corn. She was a pretty girl, with blue
eyes nnd beautiful sunny lmlr. Her
manner, bright and winsome, attract
ed the impulsive nature of Felker.
DESERTED HIS WIFE.
He never returned to his young wife
and son, who were then living nt
Stroudsburg. He deserted them and
obtained work about the ice houses
near Gouldsboro and succeeded by
constant coaxing of his aunt, Mrs.
Gress, in securing board at tho Gress
homestead. His attention to ills
cousin, Corn, were a matter of com
ment and Felker was warned to bo
careful. He was a married man nnd
tho close relationship of he and tho
girl made marriage impossible. He
was told this repeatedly by Mrs. Gress.
The girl also was warned not to en
courage her cousin. Nevertheless,
about six months ago, Felker formally
proposed marriage to the young wo
man. She rejected hlir. Felker bore
his refusal ill-humoredly. Several
times after this he suggested marringe,
but the girl, now fully awakened to
her position, gave him a determined
"No'
Yesterday morning nt about S o'clock
Mrs. Gress and Cora Gress were in the
kitchen when Felker camo in with a
shotgun in his hands. Tho girl was
combing her hair and stood before a
small mirror. Felker was gloomy. He
sat in a chair without saying a word.
After a few minutes' silence, during
which tho girl was busying herself
with her hair, Felker paid: "Cora, I
want to ask you something for the last
time."
Tho glii paid no attention to this,
but watched her dark-skinned suitor
by his reflection in tho mirror. Felker
arose, with the shotgun in his hands,
and slowly said: "Will you bo my
wife?" The girl said "No!" It was
tho last word she ever uttered.
FIRED AT THE GIRL.
Felker suddenly whipped a revolver
from his pocket and fired before the girl
who saw tho man's action in the mirror
could turn. The ball struck her in the
rlsht cheak nnd plowecl its way through
the head and out on tho opposite side.
She fell to tho door.
Felker then deliberately aimed the
shot gun at the prostrate form nnd
fired. The charge of buckshot entered
tho girl's body at the back.
Mrs. Gress, tho mother, who stood
at an arm's lensrth from her daughter
with her back to Felker, turned when
she heard tho first shot. It was so un
expected that tho woman was struck
dumb and incapa'bla of moving. She
saw the second shot fired at her daugh
ter and then with a shriek rushed upon
Felker Just ns he pointed tho gun at
her with the second trigger cooked.
Tho frenzied woman oushoil nslde tho
gun and by main force hurled Felker
to the floor.
Ho struggled nnd after a few minutes,
during which tho woman screamed for
help Felker managed to gain his feet
and, now thoroughly frightened, rnnda
off toward Tobyhanna. The grief
crazea mother followed after him.
There is a 5-acre iiwarnn on one sldo
of tho Gross homestead. Through llila
Folkor made his way, Mrs. Gress fol
lowing him for several hundred yards.
Sho iinally sank from exhaustion and
returned to her dead daughter.
The direful news soon spread and tho
Iopul.v. of Gouldsboro was thrown In
to a stnto of excitement never before
known in tho peaceful little settlement.
The Ores. i'lrl was a favorite in the
neighborhood and F.lkor wan Jn turn

of work was discontinued in Gouldsboro
and everybody joined In the pursuit.
Word of tho murder viw sent along the
lino of the Delaware, Lackawanna and
W cstern railroad which passes through
Gouldsboro until the news reached this
city at 2 o'clock In the afternoon.
Chief Detective S. W. Stlllwell, ot the
company, at once set about to Intercept
the fugitive If he reached here via the
railroad. A telephone message was re
ceived at police headquarters at :!
o'clock telling of the murder.
A short time after tills Dr. C. R.
Parke and Frank Gress, tho latter a
brother of the deceased girl, visited
police hendquarUrs. Dr. Parke Is the
Gross family physician. Frank Gress,
tho brother, is married and lives nt 617
Lewis place, this city. He had been to
Gouldsboro and lending such comfort
as he could to his mother, wnH now re
turning to assist In the capture of the
murd r?c. Willi him 5ir. Gress brought
11 photograph of Felker from which The
Tribunes picture this mornlmr was
taken, lie gave a description of the
fugitive to the police und left.
A telegram received from Gouldsboro
to tho local police department states:

CITV PATROLMEN NOTIFIED.
Last evening Acting Lieutenant Chas.
.T. Ridgeway read th description to the
night patrolmen. As Gould3boro Is In
this county Felker, if arrested, will be
tried here. The fugitive has friends In
this city. H is unlikely, however, that
lie will make for the crowded centres
at once. It Is supposed In Gouldsboro
that ho Is In hiding In the swamp land.
His wife and child ale now nt Thom

The Gress family Is highly respected
In Gouldsboro. Rudolph Gress. father
ot tho murdered girl, dUd In ISflC, He
was a son 'of Jacob Gross, famous as a
hunter, who Is now living at the ag3 of
9G years.
A musket owned by the aged man Is
noted because of the riches in its stock,
equalling almost the years h has lived,
each niche representing one bear killed.
A report on the city streets at 11
o'clock last night that Felker had been
arrested and had been brought to this
city on a Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western train proved to be untrue.
Tho murderer is still at large. Tho
rumor originated in a very plausible
circumstance. A constable from Co
lumbia, Pa., had a bicycle thief In tow
and as they left the train the gullible
public was sure that Felker was In
the meshes of the law.
Coroner S. P. Longstreet will go to
Gouldsboro this morning to hold un In
quest over the remains of Cora Gross.
The point of the murder is near the
apex of the juncture of three counties
Lackawanna, Monroe and AV'ayne.
Reports from Gouldsboro, however,
say that the murder was committed on
Lackawanna soil.
BUNCOERS ABROAD : BEWABE !
It is the trick of the Bryanlzed De
mocracy this fall to make false
charges against Republican methods,
raise a big dust, hire Republican mal
contents to organlzo Republican bolts
and then coax Individual Republicans
to desert their party on tho represen
tation that "party ties needn't count
for anything In an off year." By this
trick, If it shall work, the Bryanltes
will get a foothold for a hopeful light
in national campaigns, and mako Just
so much more troublo for MoKlnloy,
tho Rerubllcan congress and tho cause
of sound irer ey.
You now see through this trick. Aro
you going to let It work?

Remarks, Alter Which Ho Intro

ltcv. li. V, lilpplneott, of l.nkcwood,
X. .(.His Itcninrks In Substance.
The second of tho series of patriotic
meetings which are being held in 'this
city nnd county took place last even
ing nt the Jackson Strict Baptist
church. The meetlnss are being con
ducted under tho direction ot a com
mittee composed of two members from
each council of the Order of United
American Mchnnlcs In the county and
tho purpose Is to give the general pub
lic an Idea of the alms, doctrines and
foundation principles ot the order, nnd
thereby Increase the membership which
alr-'ady exceeds 0,000 In the county. The
committee is comprised of the follow
ing: Attorney G. M. Watson nnd F.
H. Young, Scranton council, No. 22!),
senior council of tho county; T. H.
Roberts and S. T. Deyo, ot Nay Aug
council, No. 314; George Dougherty
and A. K Shatter, ot Garfield council,
No 33i; ox-Htale Councillor .LM. Horn
baker and V. W. Hornbaker, of Globe
council, No. ,1,'iS; C N. Lancaster and
William HniT-iiy, of John A. Logan
council, No. 412. They were seated on
tho plattorm last night dressed In full
regalia.
Attorney G. M. Watson, as chairman
of the r venlng.opened the meeting with
a few lntinduitory remarks In refer
ence to the objtct of the mepllng. Mr.
Watson slated that the older under
whose directions the seriea of meetings
w re being held did not advocate any
religious or political faith or doctrine,
as was generally credited them. Tho
peaker of the evening. Rev. 1!. C. Up
plncott, if Lakewood. N. J., would state
the object of the order in a cl.ar man
ner. The audience then joined In sing
ing "America," and Rev. Edward How
ell offered prayer. A quartette com
prising A. D. Van Gorder, M P. Mitch
ell. Ftvd A. Can- and C. A. Mong, reu-d.-red
a selection and Rv. Mr. Lippln
cott was introducd.
IS A FLt'ENT SPEAKER.
The speaker is a gentleman of com
manding presence, easy address and
has a manner of treating his subject
which placs his hearer at case and
leaves no vague imoressions ns to what
ids meaning Is or the end to be gained.
He profaned his address with remarks
explanatory of the object nnd desire
of the nrdir and urged an increased
effort on th'e part of those, already
members, to bring others into the
ranks.
Mr. LIpplneott divided Ills address
Into three parts, under the three heads,
"Honestly, Industry and Sobriety," the
motto ot the O. IT. A. M. There is no
honest man but wants to pay his debts
he went on to say. If he owes any
thing and neglects to pay It, the money
burns in his pocket like a coal of fire.
Neglecting .to pay honest debts is only
a more lespoctable species of steal
ing. There are a great many men who
steal besides those who pick pockets
on the streets. A mnn who Induces a
false conviction with regard to the
value of an article, with a view to his
own gain, or. conversely, depreciates
the value of that article with the same
end In view he Is proclaiming himself
a follower of the creed, "Religion Is
Religion and Business Is Business."
Dishonesty in politics has caused dis
trust and demagogues are permitted
thereby .to hold sway. The corruption
of the ballot box Is the plunging of a
dagger at the if public's very heart,
and unlcKS the murderous hand is cut
off, it is only a question of time until
the hearts blood of our beloved coun
try runs out into the dust to bo
trampled 'upon by tyrants.
EDGE OF THE PRECIPICE.
The "Industry" in the O. l A. M.
motto calls upon its members to bt
allvo to training of tho youth of the
land that they may be made true
American citizens. The speaker said
he believed the country is sleeping on
the edge of a precipice nnd does not
realize Its danger. It is the evil which
the Roman Catholic church Is attempt
ing to inlllct upon the nation. Th.j
Roman Catholic question Is not a ques
tion of religion or education, but of
allegience. It Is part of alleglence that
every citizen in his civil and political
life should bo a hearty supporter of
his government. Does the parochial
school lead to this? Look at Canada
for an answer and then read a recent
definition by the pope of home rule
"a right of the church to exercise its
authority without any limits set to
it by the civil power."
To call this home rule is to Juggle
with words. It is nothing more or iess
than foreign despotism. Parochial
schools have not made English sub
jects In Canada; they aro not likely to
make American citizens here. The
safety of the nation demands their sub
jection to national superlntendency.
The closing portion of tho address
was a treatise, under the caption of
"Sobriety," of the liquor evil, in which
some startling statistics relating to the
liquor traffic were given. The voter,
he argued, was primarily responsible
for every bad effect and deplorable re
sult of the evil.
The next two meetings will be held
out of the city. The one for this even
ing will be conducted at tho Metho
dist Episcopal church at Clark's Sum
mit. Tomorrow night's meeting will
be held nt Odd Fellows' hall at Mos
cow. A POLITICAL POINTER
If you Indoreo the free trado nnd free
silver Chicago platform as tho Lacka
wanna Democracy does, "fully and
without reserve," then work and voto
