The Philadelphia Press is now one Of
the largest and .handsomest of the grea
dailies of this country, and managed with
such push and ability that the journal
stands in the front rank. Reporters Of
this enterprising newspaper last week had
the grave robbers traced and arrested, do
ing the work for wait-to-be-paid detectives
and sleepy policemen, besides such effect
i've strokes Of journalistic enterprise as
writing up the night doings of the ghouls
who have been stealing corpses and selling
them to the medical colleges. These lat.
ter, receivers of stolen bodies knowing
them to be stolen, will receive, we hope, q
share OF the indignation now turned upon
the riaers Of graveyards unearthed by the
