More Par1fcular&-The Examination OF
Cofvbn and miller CHmmenced-Tho
Mystery StllI Unexplained.

~
City Marshal J. ". Schmitt and Lieutenant
Of Police Samuel Furna1d, yesterday morning
went TO the scene OF the late bloody tragedy
in the township Of Olmsted, for the purpose
Of Investigating the matter, and aiding the
authorities, II 1t Was needed in fcrreting ont
the perpetrators Of TINT horrible murder.
They returned last evening, and from Mar
sha1 schmitt Manleatn few additional par
ticulars.
As we have stated, search was instituted
for the body Of Mcconnell, but 1t was not
very thorough, nor conducted with any sys-
tenn. Just as the officers from this city were
about leaving the depot at Berea, they were
informed of ono circumstance that may yet
lead to something Of Importance 1t WAS told
them that the tracks Of man had been traced
from the scene OF the murder for nearly the
distance OF two miles In d westerly direction,
to the shnnty of an Irish woman. The person
who followed the trail applied ut the shanty
for Admittance, but was refused. After some
considerable persuasion the woman allowed
him TO enter the front room of the house, but
would not allow him to open the door Of the
second and only other room in the tenement.
In tracing the tracks there was one suspicious
gecnllaFity. At intervals along the whole
distance there were palpable evidences OF the
man having stopped, Tor the purpose Of rest
ing, or to raise into. position some heavy
weight that he was carving upon his shoul-
dc1s. Marshal schmitt sent word to the Au-
thOElties al Olmstcd Fails OF This discovery,
and advised an immediate md thorough ex-
animation Of the premises Of the above wo-
man and the surrounding locality. Whether
1t will amount to thing can only be known
ntterinyestigatton. But nothing should be
lett undoue to discover the Whereabouts or
the man Mcconnell, dead or alive, as much Of
The mystery Of this terrible trayedy hangs
upon II. If his dead body Is not found In the
vicinity, the clue to the perpetrators of this
murder becomes the moze complicated and
harder to unruyel.
The two men, Co1rin and Miller, wero
brought to Olmsted Falls, after their arrest,
Us ne before stated, and yesterday their ex-
animation before Justice OF the Peace was
commenced at the hotel In the village. The
excitement among the citizens Of Dlmsted and
Berca Is very great, md disposition Is man
Tested on all hands to discover the murderer,
II possible. Five witnesses we're examined
yesterday, the principal one being Mr. Craw-
ford, whose statement We gave, In substance,
in yesterday evenings edition. No essential
ly new features we're presented In the testi-
mony oil any Of the witnesses examined, but
the feeling is gradually growing that the two
men In custody are the guilty parties.
The examination will be continued to-day,
as will also the search for the body Of McCon-
mel. AS heretofore, If anything new shall
trnnspirc In relation to this horrible aud mys-
tcrious afalr, We will lay it before our readers
