that shameful neglect, or the indecent
haste OF both cases, what Cor
oner is bound to exhibit The body
of A. T. Stewart, if similarly found,
would most undoubtedly be treated in the
Same way if it had lain sixty hours in the
water, and he had not been missed as is very
possible. The mystery of poor young Coul-
sons death is dark as ever. The Coroner
made no attempt to unravel it. Murder lies
in wait at dark corners and stalks in the open
day; Mr.. Coulsen was last seen miles from
where his body was found. No attempt has
the Coroner made to trace him afterwards.
This is danger that turks on the path Of
every citizen. The law does not, whatever its
intention, prevent foul play before death. The
Coroner, in his haste to add another inquest
to his list, makes no effort to search out even
the name of the dead; in the present case o
direct Glow was in his possession. We are
prepared for much in the netting out Of
s4Crowner's. quest law, but exhibitions Of
scandalous neglect, or worse, OF this kind, are
intolerable. The young journalist Of wit and
brain, whose body fell into the meshes Of
Coroner Kessler, is bat sad instance out Of
hundreds who disappear as mysteriously as If
the ground opened and swallowed them. His
profession alone brought about his recognition.
A brother reporter, Mr.. Slater, looked
through the papers in the Coroner's
pigeon-hols, and discovered he bad lost .
