Rc Argued Against Annexation With a So -Called Brother and the Latter Shat liian*-TIie lliurcleror In J'all--Jroote's Unsavoury' Canadian Record. TORONTO, Jan. 8, -Eight years ago Fred Foote, the son of a wealthy f orally of Swyndon, Wiltshire,, Eng- land, came to Toronto and secured employ- ment as bookkeeper for 0. Wilson & Son, the. Esplanade street scale manufacturers. $e was a bright, clever young man and his employers liked him very much: He work- ed there for several years, then went to Newmarket; whence he returned in a short time, bringing a French woman whom he said was his wife. His old employers willingly gave him his v,d position and all went well, A. man call- ed and said he was from Newmarket, and that Foote had taken away his wife, but he didn't propose to make anytrouble over it; Foote was welcome to her. Foote worked along, and soon another young man appeared on the scene,who was introduced as a brother of Foote's, and he went to live at the home of the unmarried couple, at 551 Parliament street. People soon knew that Foote and the woman were. not married and that the other man was not Foote's brother, even though Fred ac- knowledged hila as such.. His brothel's were English, and this man was not. ,A.bout this time Fred Foote received a legaoy of $1, 00 from e relative in Eng- land. • The French woman was a Ronan Catho, lie and he was an Orangeman. She was a handsome creature and dressed with some magnificence, which, of course, was kept up on :his money. She held him in abso- lute subjection, and he feared her as he would a ghost. She would appear in the office of the scale works and curse him in French, and he would tremble like a leaf, grow white and say to his employer that he must go out with her. On one occasion he had promised her to be home at 5.55 in the evening but was detained at an arbi- tration tt"here he was giving evidence, He said then that be was afraid of her. Last. February Foote was given three weeks' holidays, and while lie was away Mr, Wilson had occasion ta'refer to some accounts, and he found them tangled up. He met Foote and his 'female companion on the street, and mentioned the accounts, when Foote said, "Oh! I wilt come down to -morrow." Mr. Wilson said that would do, and added that Foote bad not drawn $20 salary which was clue him; he could get that at the swine time if he wanted it. foot replied that he was not in a hurry for money. He did not go to the office. but the same night left for East Saginaw, Michigan,with the woman. Then. Mr. Wilson examined the books more closely and ascertained that some notes and letters had been forged, And so Foots passed from the arena of life in Toronto, and nothing more was thought of him till an English mail brought to Messrs.. Wilson & Son a letter from an aged. father asking for informa- tion of hia son's whereabouts. Then this fall John Barfield, who had known Foote intimately, both working at Wilson's, got letters from his friend saying had settled at Saginaw. "I wish I could have been with you Christmas," said a letter which Iter. Barfield got last Thursday," but drink my health New Year's, old man, I will be over to see yon next summer. But Foote will never visit Toronto again, for he was shot in his home at Saginaw on New Year's Eve by his supposed brother. This dispatch tells how it was done: The last hours of the dyiug year in one of Saginaw's homes witnessed a terrible fratricidal struggle, the outcome of which was murder. Fred Foote came to Saginaw with his family nine months ago from Tor- onto, Ont„ and started a small grocery, the sleeping apartments being upstairs and the kitchen in rear of the building. George Foote has resided with the family some months and latterly the brothers have had warm discussions on the question. of annexation. On Saturday night the arguments waxed warm and furious, George being a strong anti -annexationist, while his brother held gpposite views. The fat 1y had retired, leaving the disputants in the kitchen to continue their wrangle, when the report of a revolver was heard, followed by a groan of intense agony. Mrs. Foote rushed down- stairs and was horrified at the sight of her husband lying unconscious on the floor,. covered with blood, while George stood be- side him with the revolver in his hand. "Physicians found the ball had pierced the body near the fifth rib, glanced upward, passing near the heart and lodging in the shoulder. He died e at 10.34finds s y night. George is behind bars. He claims he shot in self-defence, as his brother at- tacked him first. He shows as evidence of this a bruised eye. He says the struggle was a savage one and that his brother sprang upon him with the ferocity of a bulldog. He is 35 years of age." People here knowing the record of the three people can perhaps give a different version of the affair. They will say that the two men quarrelled over the woman, for "George is probably no other than the man who lived with Foote and the woman 'here, and who is not Foote's brother, 'but who is believed to have passed as snob. that he, too, might maintain im- proper relations with the woman. Friends of Foote believe this and say that Foote was quite and inoffensive and would not, begin a fight, " The woman was seen in the city about three weeks ago, boarding a street car, KISSED THE MURDERER, Mrs. Roots Shows Love for .iier Rua - enemies ]furdorer. mousses , J'an. 8.-lt will take. easeiens detective work to unearth the tine cause of the murder of Fred Foote by hisbiother George.

The resources of vege- table chemistry as developed and applied by Thomas Holloway have proved equal to tbis mighty task. His famous remedies. impart to the stream of lite a disinfecting principal which frees the system from an impure and poisonous elements. The powers of chemistry are almost beyond calculation, and as he has brought them to bear upon all the varieties of dlaoasa in those invaluable vegetable compounds known as .Honaowuu's PILLS AND OINTMENT, they have oompeased their highest and holiest object. Steam, as the great motor, is a sub- bidiary agent, its usefelness oonsieta. mainly, in conveying onbstanttal benefits with speed and certainty, to the fields in which they ars to operate. Lt is pimply the bearer of blessings, not their originator. Of all the froigtat which it carries over land end sea, there is perhaps none so precious asBoniowax's remedies. Itis scareelya figure of speech to say that whithersoever it conveys them it flies +'with healing on its wings." Under the influence of the Ointment the skin, however disfigured by eruptions or excrescences, Lecomes a tapula rasa, pure, apothem, and transparent ; and this erasure of blemishes is not a000mpiished by driving back disease into the vital recesres Of the system but by neutralizing the morbid material which feeds it. The Pills set upon the laternal fluids and the organs wiaiob secrete them upon the sanitary principle. They destroy the particles subjected to their chemical ae,ion, as infallibly as an alkali neutralizes an. aoid ; and et the same time impart a mild and constant electric action to the see. relive and excretive machinery. The motion of governments. the pat- ronage of princes, the approval of all Christian natone, the gratitude of pagan millions attest the worth of these twin curatives. In fact there is no region with which England or any country hap any commercial intercourse where Holloway would not find himself at borne.
