Re.Open1ng of the Inquest IN the
Case of Dennis j. Gallagher.

Last Monday afternoon the Coroner
re-opened the inquest in the case of
Dennis j. Gallagher, who was drowned
in the Delaware river by the upsetting
of sail boat on the afternoon of the
2ud of June. The following jurors
were present: George Fl. P. Simmons,
H. B. McIntire, William Fl. Brady, o..
II. d. Bedford L. W. Palmer and j..
H. Roberts. The other members of the
Jury were absent and the Coroner de-
cided to proceed without them.
Richard d. Patten was the first wit
ness and at the request of the jury the
Coroner requested the other witness es
to withdraw until their evidence was
needed. Mr.. Batten testified that he
resides at Pennsville, N. j., and as he
was returning to Pennsville from Fort
Delaware he saw body floating in the
river about half way between the Fort
and New Castle. There were three
others in the boat besides the witness
When they got up to the body one Of
their number named Forkam took hold
of it and witness saw that there were
four bricks fastened to the left arm
near the elbow. FJrkam cut them Oft
and put them In the boat but they were
afterwards thrown overheard. The
body was recognized as that of Dennis
j. Gallagher and taken away by his
friends. The bricks were fastened to.
gether and tied to the body with a
piece of gill net line.
The witness was cross examined by
Mr.. Edward Darrah who was also in
the boat at the time Of the accident,
and in answer to his questions said that
they towed the body ashore by the same
sized line as was tied TO the bricks.
They tied the line to both arms. The
witness said that he was in this city
fe " davs after the body was tound;
he visited Mr.. Darrah and received u
check for$50 as reward tor finding the
body and did not receive money from
Mr.. Darrah for any other purpose. In
answer to questions by Mr.. McIntire,
the witness said that was the only time
that he had talked to Mr.. Darrah.
Mr. McIntire said that it had been
in one of the papers of this city, that
one of these men had told reporter
that he had private conversation with
Mr.. Darraa, but waslnOt at liberty to tell
what it related to, ,and he asked each of
the witnesses if they were the one that
had made use of such language. Upon
each of the young men answering in
the negative, Mr.. Darrah said 81 knew
it was all lie, and l only wish the
reporter was present that published it. !"

THE CIGAR DEALERS.
Why They RreHk the Law and Sell
ON SundRy-A Just Cause


1t has been customary with the adj
vent of new Mayor to proceed at once
against the habit of selling cigars, on
Sunday, and the present incumbent
Mayor Wales, is not an exception. Hsv-
ing assumed his official duties on Satur.
day one of the first orders given to the
police was that no Cigars stores would
be allowed to sell on Sunday. NOtwith.
standing this order there we're some who
piled their regular Sunday vocation
without fear, and with strong hope
that they would only have to sell on the
sly for short period when they could
again open out their dc ors and nothing
would be said.
This was the case when ex-Mayor
Allmcnd tried it. The order was obeyed
for o while, but ere many weeks the
cigar men were back in their old ways
and everything went along smooth
ingly, until the latest order issued by
Mayer Wales.
1t was nctic I'd on Sunday that several
prominent dealers closed their stores
and did not permit cigar to be sold;
again there were others who would
ouly accommodate their friends, while
there were some who sold right along.
In conversation with several dealers in
the weed in regard to selling on Sun
day, they stated that they were willing
to close their stores on Sunday, at any
and all the time if all the others would
do the same. The greatest fault they
have to find is with the drug stores,
nearly all of which keep cigars, and
from the fact that they are open on
Sunday, they sell cigars with impunity,
thus taking advantage of the retail
cigar men who are compelled to close
up.
There is also several news stands that
keep cigars and they too derive quite a
benefit from the sale thereof when the
regular stores are closed. If the law
applies to cigar men, it should also ap-
ply to drug stores and news stands, or
any place where they are sold. This
has been the main cause of all the trou-
BILE in the past, and if one store is not
allowed to sell all others should be
served in the same manner. 1t is hoped
that the Mayor will look into this mat
ter and If selling on Sunday is to be
broken up, then let it apply to all aud
we will vouch the assertion that If those
outside of the regular trade are not per-
mitted to sell, there will be but little
trouble with the regular dealers.

CADIz, KY, July 1.-Colonel John
Bridges was hung here yesterday in
the presence of the largest crowd that
ever assembled in this county. Bridges
remained with his spiritual advisers a
large portion of Thursday night and
yesterday afternoon, alternately sing.
ing and praying. At 1.15 o'clock a
wagon containing his coffin was driven
to the Jail, and the condemned man
was assisted into the wagon. At III
the start Irom TIE Jail was made. ln
forty minutes the gallows was reached.
1t was a plain wooden structure, with
spring trap. At the foot of the gal.
lows the doomed man exhibited con-
siderable nervousness, but met the Or
deal bravely.
Bridges took his stand on the trap, the
black cap was drawn over his face and
the moose adjusted Sheriff Boyd quick
ly sprang the trap, and, with dull,
heavy thud, the body fell, At the in.
slant of the fall, the moose slipped and
the poor wretch struggling terribly,
succeeded in freeing his hands and
teet from the cords with which they
had been pinioned. He made a des-
perate struggle to get upon the gallows
again, but was pushed back and sui
fered horrible death by strangulation
The drop fell exactly at 22O, and in
thirty minutes he was pronounced dead
The body was cut down and forwarded
to his mother, at Canton, in this county
for burial. There was no demonstra
ton at the scaffold, except that one OF
two negro women tainted and some
grOans were heard.

NOT SO FIRM.


WASHINGTON, July 2.-Dr. Nc
Williams, the assistant physician al
the District jail, does not think Gui-
teau showed all the firmness in his lasl
hours with which he has been credited
He said ~ had been at the jail every
night for the whole week watching him
pretty narrowly.
On the night of Thursday [ visited
his cell about midnight, and found him
sitting on the bed staring straight be-
fore him into vacancy-the most per.
feet picture of despair 1 ever beheld.
He asked me then to inspect the gal
lows tor him. He didn't want any

morrow he said.
To this l made no reply. When l
saw him the next morning the guard
reported that he had slept none during
the night. He would occasionally go
into doze and start out of 1t with
some inarticulate sound. The officers
bear witness that he ate nothing for his
breakfast. He may have put some,
thing In his mouth, but it amounted to
nothing.
at was the same way at dinner, when
he was said to have eaten hearty meals.
From what l have learned from the
guards, he broke down into o perfect
despair during the morning and wept
freely. 1t was necessary to make every
exertion to keep him up-to talk to
him, fan him and urge him to be firm,
to be a man.
When General Crocker came into the
cell 10 read the death warrant Guiteau
was evidently greatly agitated, but he
was able to stand. When it had been
read he sat down. When he reached
the top of the scaffold he faltered, not
stumbled. In reading his prayer, he
wavered so excessively that General
Crocker was at one time anxious to
stop it.
l wasjust back of the scaffold and
could hear him catching his breath and
struggling to control it. 1t was dread
full. Strong's work was admirably done
and the execution was perfect. do
not believe Guiteau suffered a mo-
ment's pain.
DR.. McWilliams said it was not true
that Guiteau's brain was found TO be
sotta and yielding.
1t was certainly not so before it was
taken from the Jail. 1t was q good
brain of the standard weight. The ad-
hesion in places of membrane to the
skull proved nothing. In examining
Daniel Webster's brain, it was found
that the whole membrane adhered TO
the skull.
