have sunk down from the surface OF the ground and
IN his bones when life became extinct.
These facts also show concusively that these re-

The remains Of spimsls are sometimes found when,

BEATEN TO DEATH BY A RUNNER
RESULT OF A GAMBLING AFFAIR.

RESULT OF A GAMBLING AFFAIR.
Coroner Morris OF jersey City was called upon on
Saturday evening bold inquest upon the body Of
John Brusnhau who died on Saturday from the effects
Of dreadful bestrg at the hands Of New York run.
ner named George Carter.
From the evidence which was ELECTED from several
witnesses it appears that deceased engineer on
board of the steamship Empire City. The vessel
arrived in port Tuesday afternoon last, and soon
sfer arriving at the dock Brusnhau and another en-
gineer nsmed Mcclure repaired TO the OHIO House,
corner of Washington and Warren streets. Here they
engaged in playing cards fer drinks which continued
for some time, and we're about giving up the game to
20 away when Carter and another man came in. The
latter named persons proposed to have game Of
seven up, which was scceded to- and the parties CON-
menoed to play for money At last dispute arose be-
tween Carter and BIusnhsu in reference to unfarness
Of the game ard Brusnhau accused Carter Of cheating
him. Both parties arose from their chairs, and as they
did 60, Carter struck BrusDhsu in the left eye. The
bartender Henry Potter, came out and separated
them and upon returning behind the bar, the parties
had second round. They then dssssed and called for
drnks which refused.
Tie quarrel was again resumed and harsh language
was used by both. Carter then cinched Brusnhau
and threw him upon the floor, falling upon his stomach
with bis knee and then dragged him about the foor
Carter with an OATH ordered Brush han 10 get up and
as the latter partially raised up kicked him in the
stomach. Officer Folwel at this time, came in ard
separated the parties and after short time went out
Brusnhau was quite drunk. Carter is represented a.
being large man. nearly twice as heavy a. deceased
and has the reputation Of being bully, disposed to
make trouble and likely TO take advantage Of a man
smaller than hiu,self. Deceased said he very
much hurt, and complained Of his stomach. Csrtsr
SAID to him, "You are payirg this up pretty good,
perhaps you want q little more"
The bar tender thinking that deceased was not able
to go away, left him sizing by the stove, between
and clock in the morning. and went to bsd. Bru
sinbau sfterwsrd left the Chic House and went on
beard the Empire City. On Wednesday morning,
Robert w. Edmonds, brother-insw Of deceased, went
or boa,d the vessel and found deceased groanng With
pain. Denpis Stephens smother brother-in-lsw, who
Is chiefeogneer Of the Empire City, hsd deceased
conveyed to bis house in jersey City where he died
3n Saturday morning Of his injuries.
Deceased wa described a. kind man and Of gen.
lie opposition sometimes obstinate when in liquor,
but not disposed to make trouble The bartender
testified that Brusinbsu made no resistance st all
