IHE LAST OF THE SUFFERERS DEAD
Johann Hermann Christian Shut and
Johann Heinrich Shut, the two bro.
theirs who were among those who in.
h"led tue fatal gas on the GERMAN
barquentine Adolph, but who we're alive
on Saturday, have since died. One OF
them expired on Sunday afternoon, at
o'clock. and the other fingered until
yesterday morning, when he, too, died.
The Jury of inquest, empaneled by Coro-
ner Hewlett on Saturday, which ad.
Journcd to yesterday, met ut 10 o'clock,
and, aftor careful review OF all the at.
tendant circumstances in the case, rem
dered a verdict to the effect that the five
deceased men came to their deaths from
tho Inhalation of the carbonic gas.
AS for the circumstances attendant on
the affair, they will never be known, as
there is not one living man left of all
who slept in the forecastle that night
The brothers Shut died without hetray-
ing any sign OF consciousness from first
to last. They received every care and
attention that it was possible to bestow
upon them, and every known medical
e1pedient was applied, but the poison
refused to yield to tho treatment. With
them expired all hopes OF ever solving
the mysterious portion OF the problem.
The circumstances OF the case are Pc
cnliarly sad. The captain, mate and
crew of the Adolph (the crew being
composed OF the five men who died]
were all from the Province of Pome-
rania, in Germany, and had been life
long friends The captain is complete

but finding it more than hc could do,
