SUITED FROM PUTTING ARSENIC IN TOOTH
Coroner Sim1nS. of Brooklyn said yesterday
hat he did not view as within his Jurisdiction
The case Of George Arthur Gardiner, the civil
engineer Of Boston, who died at 50 Henry street,

resulted from the use Of arsenic in an aching
TOOTH unless proof was submitted to him that
Mr.. Gardiner died from the arsenic. Mr..
Gardeners tooth was first Treated on Sept. II In
Boston by his cousin, Dr. Waters. dentist,
who filled q cavity In 1t with something to stop
the pain. Mr.. Gardiner came to Brooklyn on
that night. He suffered greatly from his aching
tooth. and was successfully treated in Brook
Jyn by DrS. c. A. Marvin, A C. Lewis and Guy.
DR.. Marvin removed the first filling and put
in creosote. Drs. Lewis and Guy, who were
subsequently called, said it was case of ar
senical poisoning. Mr.. Gardiner suffered terri
bly, during the progress of the gangrene until
it caused his death. An acquaintance of MI.
Gardiner said yesterday that DR.. Waters, of
Boston, says that he used no arsenic in the
tooth. That arsenic was used is deduction Of
the other ply sicians frON the circumstances of
the case. 1t Is said that dentists are In the
habit Of using arsenic to kill the nerves in
aching teeth. MIR. Gardiner was nephew by
marriage of Mr.. Prescott, the historian. He
leaves son and daughter. His son. Edward,

evening. On Sunday morning de-
tectives and soldiers from Columbus
and Grand Island surrounded the
house of one Richardson, Middleton's
father-in-law, and captured Richard
son and five members of Middleton's
gang. Richardson was compelled by
threats of lynching to lead the party
to Middleton's camp, which was
found in o deep canon near the river.
The camp was surrounded, surprised,
Middleton, his wife aud two of his
gang captured. Middleton was found
to be severely wounded, the result
of bis flight with detectives last week.
1t Is supposed that the greater por-
ton of the gang were away locating

HydrophObia.

CLEVELAND, Aug. flames Hen
derson, Is years old. died yesterday
Of hydrophobia. He was bitten
more than a year ago by a dog which
is still alive and all right. TIE bite
was on the upper lip, and had always
bothered the unfortunate lad. Three
days ago be was taken down with
what was thought to be fever, bat at
the sight of water or any liquidiwent
into spasms, and his lip became so
troublesome that the boy wanted to
keep his hand to it all the time. The
boy was in his right mind some of
the time, and gave those in charge of
him to understand that even the
thought of water would give him
spasms. During his last few hours
be would talk about dogs most of the
time. Inasmuch as the dog which
did the biting is alive and we'll the
doctors are considerably puzzled over
the case. Some, however, hold that
G dog can recover from partial mad
ness, and they assert that this was
probably the cast with the dog 10
question when the boy was bitten.
1t is the second death in Cleveland
from hydrophobia within one month.

Murder as -Camp.Meetfng.

SAN ANTONIO, TEX, July 30
Last fall John Baker, a young man
of high standing. was indicted by
the grand jury Of Guadalupe county
for the murder of a young mar nam
ed Exum Hullaman. After exami-
nation Baker was released On bail,
and has since been at liberty. The
murder being exceedingly a~trocious,
Bakers release on bond aroused the
people, who talked of lynching him,
and the consequence q a division
of the community (Seguin) in which
Baker lived. Bitter feeling was ex.
hibited on both sides. The evidence
vas purely circumstantial, but rather
strong. Last night Baker attended
q Methodist camp-meeting neal Sc
gun, and while the minister was de-
livering the first prayer a loud pistol
report a heard, Baker falling dead.
A man had quietly forced bis way
through the throDg to where Baker
stood beside q post supporting the
arbor under which the services were
being conducted, and placed his pistol
against his right ear. The ball pass
ed entirely through Bakers head.
Great excitement followed, the prayer
stopped and the meeting broke up.
Baker "a buried to-day. 1t is fear
a serious feud has been e%ngender.

Illicit Distt1iiDg.

NASHVILLE, July 30.-The reve-
nue. men raiding in the mountain
counties report several captures of
illicit outfits. There seems to be a
considerable increase in moonshining,
and a report prevails generally among
them that the Government has refus.
ed to pay Deputies for raiding.
They have consequently grown
more numerous and ply their wild
cat more openly. Several weeks ago
some 500 moonshiners accepted Gov
eminent pardon for past o~lrenses aud
promised to live honest and better
lives. There was much good feeling
over the result, and it was thought
moonshining was at an end 10 Tenn
essee; but among the recent arrests
at illicit stills in foil operation were
some who were most prominent in
receiving pardon. Revenue men are
pretty thoroughly convinced that the
only way to staf moonshining Is an
effectGal system Of raiding. The
profits Of the business are so great
that unless extremely closely watch
ed, distilleries will be revived almost
as fast as destroyed.

READING, August 3-Defective
Bernhard, Chief of Police Housum,
Sergeant Ressler and q posse of
police have succeeded in capturing
thirteen desperate men belonging to
a regularly organized band Of rob-
bers that has been plnndering East
ern Pennsylvania for the past two
years. The entire batch were heavi-
iy manacled, taken to jail and placed
in separate cells. Jeremiah Wentsol,
proprietor of a country hoie., has also
been arrested and committed TO jail
on a charge of having received stolen
goods and shipped them 20 New
York and Philadelphia. The robbers
are young Germans, who have been
living tramp lives ever since their
advent into this country. All have
nickuames, by which they are known
TO all members of the band. They
are as follows: Kloster, Bruder,
Klockengeeser, Hoopser, Loompa,
Schewatzsn, August, Franz, Schmidt,
Jake Huber, Roder Schwope, Kugel,
Greener Dyer, John Pulfer, Beyerish
Tsepple and Fransiche Schwore.
They are a.desperate looking set of
men, and the officials have direct
and positive evidence against every
one of them. Many of the most
desperate highway robberies, out
RACES upon old people, burglaries and
leading crimes OF this State are
charged upon these desperadoes.
The evidence obtained against them
was on the Mollie Mcguire system,
and when this robber band gets to
trial in a few weeks in this city, at
Ieas. half a dozen witnesses will
against them. The witnesses
are members of the band who are
low assisting the officials in bringing
he desperate criminals to justice.
The revelations of these men show
a number of men now in jail
lnder sentence are entirely innocent.
August is the repnted leader he
5 a tall, well formed man. A num-
DER Of the prisoners have received
educations.

The rrankfort (Ky.l Murder

The fight on Wednesday evening
at Frankfort, Ky, between Barnet
Gordon and John Cole has been
briefly mentioned by telegraph. The
parties were brothers-in-law, and
lived on adjoining farms, about ten
miles from Frankfort. For several
years there has been a bitter feeling
between the wives, which, being
taken up by the husbands, was re-
Gently intensified by q quarrel about
a boundary fence. Cole accompanied
by his son, a boy ten years old, was
in Frankfort to sell a load of oats and
encountered Gordon in a saloon,
while about to take a drink. Cole pro-
posed to treat and did so, remarking
that he was willing TO make friends.
Gordon took offense and drew his
knife, and the two left the saloon for
the street, where o desperate fight
with knives ensued. Cole received
four terrible cuts and staggering back
into the saloon, fell dead, with bis
Mortified little son screaming above
his mangled form. Gordon received
q CHASTITY wound in the neck and
cheek. lie gave himself up to the
police. He claimed that the killing
was done IN self-defence. He is
about forty years old, and is related
to the Gordons vino figured c%onspicu.

Governor. He has always been re-
