the prisoners accused of having placed
the corpse in the river, with a view of
passing it off as that of Esther
SOlomossy, a girl whom the prisoners are
charged with numbering, declared that
their confessions have been obtained by
threats to murder them in prison. One of
them had been compelled to drink huge
quantities of water, had been stripped,
struck, dragged by the hair and shown
the gallows.
The other had been beaten and compell-
ed to gaze at the sun.
A number of witnesses also testified
as to the shocking treatment they had
received at the hands of the authorities.
The counsel for the defense pointed out
that the people of Tizzah Ezlah, where
/ the murder is alleged to have been COM
mitted, had been taught that it was not
wrong to testify falsely against Jews, the
interests OF the country requiring their
conviction.
The President of the court is informed

Th'iss above Dada. The corpse brought

SHOT DEAD FROM A CAR.
Little Girl Killed, and Her SIayer's
Brother Commits Suicide
Erie Special, 4tb.


This city was thrown into q state of
great excitement this evening by a ter
rible tragedy. About O'Clock, as Rose,
the nine-year-old daughter of George s.
Steiner, was standing on the sidewalk in
front of her fathers. residence on Peach
street, pistol shot was heard and the
girl suddenly fell to the ground dead, shot
through the heart. The shot came from
the rear platform of street car, and at
the same moment Albert Kuhn, aged
about twenty-five years, was seen to
leave the car.
AS soon as the death of the girl became
known two or three persons said they had
seen Kuhn fire the shot. He was followed
and arrested about half dozen blocks
from the scene of the tragedy. In the
meantime he had thrown his revolver, a
thIrty-twO calibre, down an area, where it
was found with two chambers loaded.
Kuhn was under the influence of LIQUOR
and had been celebrating the Fourth by
shooting ball cartridges prOmiscuOusly on
the street.
Frank Kuhn, aged about nineteen, a
brother of Albert, was also on the car at
the time and disappeared with his brother
when the shot was fired. After three
hours search, his body was found hang
ing by the neck in the cellar of w. T.
Rindernecht's grocery store, where he
was employed. Some people think Frank
did the shooting and then committed sui
eide on account of remOrse, but the eVi-
dence at the inquest tonight indicates
that his brother fired the fatal shot.

DISMISSED CADETS TO STICK.
The Validity of the Act of Congress to
be Thoroughly Tested.


WASHINGTON, July 6.-The Cadet En-
gineers of the class of 1881, who have
been notified of their dismissal from the
navy under the provisions of the act of
August 3, 1882, have refused to accept
their discharge and the years pay ten
dered with it. 1t will be remembered
that the Court of Claims decided that this
act had no application whatever to these
young men, while the Secretary of the
Navy decided directly to the contrary.
In communication addressed to the de
partment, the Cadets state that thev feel
bound to respect the decision of the court,
and believe that their discharge is with
out the authority Of law, and hence
null and void. They therefore continue
to report for duty from time to time and
sue for their pay as it accrues. 1t is
understood that, while the Secretary is
opposed to the idea that he can be CON
strained by the courts i'll regard to what
he regards as purely an administrative
question he will not oppose, and will per-
haps favor the restoration of these young
men to the service by legislation at the
next session of Congress.

A Former EmplOye Tells What the

CHICAGO, July 6.-In the lard investiga-
ton before the Board of Trade Committee.
in which McGeoch charges Fowler Bros.
with adulterating prime steam lard, the
case for the defense was concluded this
afternoon with the testimony of
Prof. Belfield, of the Rush Medi-
cal College, who exhibited a series
of magnItied photographs of lard and
tallow, showing their differences in crys-
tallization with specimens of adulterated
lard. The prosecution then put on the
stand William Martin, formerly foreman
for Fowler Brothers, who corroborated
the statements made by other witnesses,
to the effect that tallow and beef bones
were mixed with hog fat and put in
rendering tanks and the product of it in
tierces and labelled ''prime steam.' He
knew this positively, because he had en-
tire charge of the rendering. He also tes-
titled that in December last between 5000
and 5000 tierces of this stuff had been
made by Fowler Bros. and tierced as
'prime steam lard" This evidence con-
tradicted that given by Professor Rosa,
the chemist for Fowler Bros.

Georgia Peaches in Parliament.

A few evenings ago Mr.. Parnell was
seen wandering about the lobbies of the
House of Commons with a big box in his
hands. Whenever he met a friend, he
would pause, show him the box, and give
him something from it. Curiosity was
excited among those not thus favored, to
know what the box contained, and specu-
lations were rife as to what form of dyna-
mite cartridges was being distributed
among the members of the third party.
At last the secret came out. The box
was full of peaches, big, luscious Ameri-
can peaches, which had been sent to the
Irish leader by his brother John, who is
reputed to have one of the largest
orchards in the world, in Georgia.
