An Ortojenarlau Wife Murderer The Teller of a Louisville liank Leaves ail Arhinit Void in the Vault A College Chaplain Cowhided. Baltimore, March 6. The health department will investigate one of the mo remarkable institutions which has ever been established in Baltimore. It is a faith-cure hospital called "Christ's Institute," and is run by colored men. It is located on Sterling street near Edgar.

Ita existence was discovered Monday by the death of a woman from consumption. The chief officer of the establishment is "IWtor" Kennard A porter called on him for an interview as to the methods he employed. He said: "I am the proprietor Christ's institute, which has been established to cure people by the help of God. I use homoepathic medicines and cure any kind of disease that flesh is heir to. During the year I became convinced that God desired through me to rnie peculiar people, and on Feb.

2, 1 oened this place. Since that time I have had at least 3,000 to 4.000 patients, many of them white perjons, and all were cured except the woman win se certificate was sent to the health office. She had the consumption and was dying when they sent me. I have patients from 3 months old to J00 years old. Some have either paralysis, chronic rheumatism, stiffnes of the joints, but they will ail be cured in a short time." How He Treat Diaease.

"My treatment varies, as I am directed by the voice of God. AVheu a patient comes to me, or I go to see him or her, I place my finger on the part affected, and instantly 1 am directed by God what kind of medicine to use and what else 1 ought to do. I make no charge for treatment or medicine. I am willing to accept whatever they feel able to pay, I have also twenty-three pupils whom I am learning to be doctors. 1 charge them nothing foi their instructions, as it has pleased Almighty God to give me the wisdom and knowledge." The Patients.

Up stair were found a number of white and colored people who had been, they said, afflicted with palpitation of the heart, dyspepsia, and were all cured by Kennard. Healt Commissioner Robe and his assistants will make a rieid examination of the place. It is believed that the consumptive patient who died is hut one of many deaths re sulting from faith in the 'Institute." A DKAIH.Y KKCORD. Sll Men Killed In One Kentucky County Within a Week. Barbolrsville, March 6.

A man living on Poplar creek, six miles south of this place, came to town for a wagon ad of coffins, and gave an account of a bloody affray that occurred on that creek Sunday evening, in which old man Archie Leeger, his son, and McKinney, his son-in-law, were killed outright by Joe Turner and two other men from Bell county. The trouble grew out of dividing some household goods belonging to McKinney and his wife, who had separated. They all con gregated at Iieeger house for the purpose of dividing the property between the man and his wife, but could not agree only in one particular, ami that wes to settle the matter with Winchesters. Three killed and S'veral others wounded was the result.

1 I JOHN mm SHOOTING MI DEIIATED FOR FIVE WEAUY HOURS The House Dlcue the Kansas Election Cans Arguments In the Naele Case-The Czar's Bid to an American News Writer Other Capital News. Washington, March 6. The senate in secret session debated at length a resolution offered by Mr. Dol. in behalf of the committee recently appointed to investigate executive session leakages, calling for the arrest and imprisonment of A.

J. Halford, of the Associated Press, and George Grantham Bain, of the United Press, for contempt in refusing to divulge the source of the news concerning secret sessions which they have sent out from time to time. The resolution and report of the committee set forth the fact that these correspondents have been guilty of making public the confidential business of the senate contrary to the statute, and that they have placed themselves in contempt of the senate by refusing to answer questions concerning the sources ol their information. In presenting the resolution, Uolph said th; the committee had been uuuhie to obtain satisfactory information from live newapa-ler men who had been called as witnesses in the investigation which has Iteen in progress for some time. The local papers, he said, obtained most of the secret session news from the press associations, and only a few papers published elsewhere, printed other than the regular press repi ris.

He held, therefore, that the press associations, and the men who furnished these facts to them, were particularly culpable, and that il would be wise tor the senate to make an example of them. During the discussion that followed it was suggested that the oth correspondents who had refued to answer questions were equally in contempt, and when the resolution is finally acted upon it may include their names also, Sir. Teller offered as a substitute the resolution heretofore offered by him, providing for the consideration of nominations in open executive session, lie said that the set ate was making itself (in ulous in its efforts to run down the betrayers of executive secrets. He said that senator knew perfectly well that most of the information of a confidential character was betrayed by members of the senate. He did not think it would be possdile to accomplish the end which Mr.

Dolph desired by throwing two or three newspaper men into jail. Instead of preserving the dignity ol the senate, they would make that body a common laughing stock. Mr. Wilson of Iowa, a member of the leakage committee, supported Mr. Dolph and said that the newspaper men ought to be locked up until they would tell where they got their information.

Mr. Klackburn, also a member of the coma ittee, gave the reso ution a qualified indorsement. He was somewhat exercised over the publication in the newspapers of the proceedings of the secret session of Monday, particularly the criticism in a New iork paper of the attitude of the Democratic senators who voted for the confirmation of Mr. Varmoth. Mr.

Matt supported Mr. Teller's resolution as he had done in the past, but said as long as nominations were consid ered in secret the rules of the senate should be ilerved in this pa'ticular. Mr. Harris supported Mr. Dolph vigor ously.

The senators from the new states, to the great gratification of the friends of open sessions, ske vigorously against the resolution of Mr. Itoiph, and told the senate in plain terms how much it owed to the press, and particularly to the corps of Washington correspondents. 'Hie debate was conlinued at ereat length, the mailer being under discussion for nearly five bonis. The indica-tums are that fhe Hoiph resolution will not be agreed to. tlitirutrr Kepo'-ts.
