Verdict OF tho C0roner's Jufy In the jon

Roco Island, H., Nov. 2S.-Ths coroner'a
Jury in the case Of the Jennie Gilchrist to-day
made their report. They found that the boat
was ran at night in violation of law, being
licensed a. a day passenger steamer only;
found that the boat was properly equipped
and the engineer on duty, yet the master and
pilot was Incompetent; no lookout was on
duty as provided by law, and no word
was sent to the passengers Of their
danger, and no effort was made to save the
helpless women; and as the mate, James
Hier, we think acted the part Of coward
in not making any effort to save the passen-
gers and crew, be having nothing else to do,
and It Is the sense of this Jury that the duties
of master and pilots, should not be vested
in one person, on any steamer authorized to
carry passengers upon the Mississippi river.

A Family Of Seven Persons Burned

A Family Of Seven Persons Burned
Strong Suspicious That They Were
First Murdered.
CASEYvILLE, KY, January 29.-Infor-
nation OF .one Of the most horrible
tragedies ever enacted in this tGrsyson)
county reached this place early this
morning, being no less than the terrible
death OF seven persons, whether by the
hand OF the assassin or by cruel flames
is not vet positively ascertained, the
general impression, however, fayoripg
the former theory.
Four miles east OF this place there re-
sided, up to the time OF the event, Mr.
Wiley Emery and seven children, three
boys and four girls, the eldest, q girl,
being seventeen years OF age, and the
youngest six, Mrs. Emery, the wife and
mother, having died several years ago.
Mr.. Emery, as before stated, was we'll.
to-do, and owned large stock farm, the
products OF which annually brought
him handsome SUN.
A few days ago he sold several thou.
sand dollars worth OF stock, and, as was
his custom, took the money home with
him, instead of placing it in bank. This
money was known to be in the house
last night, and it is thonght the house
was spotted by two suspicious-looking
men who had been seen lnrking in the
neighborhood for several days past, but
are now missing.
About 8 o'clock last night Mr.. Green,
the nearest neighbor TO the Emerys, saw
a bright light in the direction Of the lat
ters house, and calling his help FASTENED
over to render assistance in extinguish-
ing the flames, which, by the time OF
their arrival, were completely envelop-
ing the fated building. TO their horror,
when reaching the house, they discov-
cred that the family OF seven souls were
inside.
AT first it was supposed that the in
mates were asleep and efforts were made
to arouse them, but to no purpose. The
door was then battered down, but on
account of the flames, which by this
time had taken possession OF the hall.
way leading to the sleeping apartments,
an entrance could not be effected, and
the bodies OF the entire family were con.
sumed. together with the house and its
contents.
Not cry was heard from the victims
by those who ran to their assistance, and
from this fact it is inferred that after the
inmates had retired, the house was en-.
tered by some fend or fiends, who first
murdered the family, secured the money
and other valuables and then fred the
house for the purpose Of wiping out all
evidence OF their infamous crime. II
this theory is correct, there must have
been more than one, as Mr.. f.. was a
large, stout, active man, and his Oldest
sons good-sized boys, able to cope with
a full.grown man. The father and two
sons slept in the same room, and it is
hardly probable that one could have
been attacked and overcome without
awakening the others.
The entire country is thoroughly
aroused, and a thorough investigation OF
the tragedy will be made, and, should
the murder theory become established
and the suspected persons captured,
short work will be made OF them.

PIQUA, OHIo, January ga horrible

F. Harbaugh, dentist, shot and in

OF the city in the right hand while that
officer was arresting him for disorderly
conduct. This week the Grand Jury in.

wound, and this indictment and its prob

reckless in mind than ever.
This evening after supper he mani

left the house. He proceeded 10 his
office, three squares from his residence,
locked the boys up in tho room, and i'm
mediately returned home. He then, il
is supposed, resumed the quarrel with
his wife, for within few moments after
his return his next-door neighbors heard
two or three shots, but no other sounds.
Several neighbors Immediately entered
the house and found Mrs. Harbaugh ly.
ing in one corner OF the sittingroom,
with large bullet-hole in the right side
OF her head, above the back Of her ear.
The wretchered husband was not 10 be

search for him, they fonnd him lying on
floor of a back room, with his head ab.
solutely blown away, blood and brains
being spattered over ceiling. walls and
furniture, and presenting most borri.
BILE appearances. In the hallway down
