A BANKER MURDERED.

Murderer Arrested.

London, November 9,

An extraordinary outrage was committed in the rooms of Julius Schlitte, a foreign bankr, of Shhaftesbury Aueuue, London. A man armed with a revolver vainly fired at Mr Schlitte, who apparently snatched the weapon and threw it into a corner.

The assailant, with a knife, then badly wounded Schlitte in the abdomen ane shoulders, despite Schlitte’s efforts to attract notice by hurling weights through the window and shouting “Police!” and “ Murder!”

Brandishing a knife, the assailant then rushed into the street, stsbbing a carter and a policeman who tried to stop him. The wounded policeman hung on to the man, and finally arrested him. He proved to be an engineer named Macdonald. SchUlte was removed to an hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries.

Mr W. C. Wockuer-, Toowoomba, Queensland, writes : “ Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy is an excellent Remedy. I have been suffering from a severe cold for the last two months and it has effected a cure. It is a pleasure for me to recommend it to anybody with a bad cold.’ 1 This is the opinion of one of the oldest and most respected residents of Toowoomba,and has been voluntarily given in good faith that others might try Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy and bo benefited as he was. For sale everywhere.—Advt.
