A COnyicts Clothes Found.

Dick Matthews, a coored wood-chopper,
while at work yesterday morning near the
mouth of Turtle creek, turned over hollow
log, when he discovered a piece Of goods
sticking out of it, and on pulling it out it
proved to be clothes of convict They
were full of dirt and sand which showed
that they had been secreted there prior
the last overflow of the Trinity river. On
shaking them out hole was found in the
bojy of the suit just beneath the left arm
pit He did not bring them in with him
but left them where he found them. No
doubt some escaped convict shucked them
there and donned the costume of civilian.

DOCTORS DISAGREE,
a Heated Dispute as to Which OF Three
Killed an Undertaken

heated Dispute Ms to Which OF Three
Killed an Undertaken.
WATERBURY, May 25.-A number of the
most prominent physicians of this CITY
have become involved in difficulty which
has sundered standing friendships,
and bids fair to create big row in the
county medical society. The trouble
originated last winter, when DR.. Thomas
McGinn, one of the best-known physicians
in Connecticut, was called in by DR.. Walter
Hamlin Holmes for consultation in a seri.
GUS case. Michael +. Maher, of Maher
Bros, Waterbury undertakers, was
living at the point of death. Dr. Holmes
was IN charge OF the case 1t was about
thirty'slx hours before Maher died that DR..
McGlnn's counsel was sought. He dag.
nosed The case and pronounced II TYPHOID
pneumonia growing out of the pleurltis
He thought the case hopeless, and wished
to consult with other physc DIR, G, s.
Platt: DR.. Holmes father, -in.law, was
called In. He pronounced McGil ms dag.
nosis correct, and agreed essentially with
his prescriptions, so DR.. McGinn claims
McGinn was asked by members of the fam.
lily whether he could have done anything
had he been called earlier. He SAYS he re-
plied that he did not know. Maher's
tri' nds, 1t is alleged. represented that
Holmes had neglected the case, and II was
soon limited abroad that DR.. McGinn had
asserted that he could have saved
the patient had he been called In the first
place. This reached DR.. Holmes ears
throagh Dr. James Ramsay, at the month
ly meeting of the medical society. Charges
were preferred against DR. McGinn by DR..
Holmes and others, one being mai practice
in the case Of John J. Maher, who died
some months ago. DR.. McGinn was not
present, and a committee was appointed to
investigate. DR.. McGinn was very angry
over these charges, particularly against Dr.
Ramsay, whom he charges with malprac.
tice, SANDER, and even graver offences
which he promises to prove before the next
meeting of the medical society. He SAYS
that the committee Of Investigation are en-.
deavoring to hush matters up, and VOWS
that they shall not succeed.-INew York

Review of the Local Grain, Produce, and
Provision Markets.

Review of the Local Grain, Produce, and
Provision Markets.
INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 6.
The general merchandise markets are seldom
more quiet than at the present time, and seldom
are prices so steady, the VACCINATIONS being con-
fined chiefly to the provision and grain markets.
We to-day further advance wholesale prices on
provisions, and sales were made to-day at prices
given. The provision market is now attracting
more attention. The Cincinnati Price Current,
of Dec. 6, says:
"There has been some irregularity in the course
ofthe market, but, generally speaking, q strong
tone has prevailed, and when there were signs
OF weakness there were few sellers at lower
prices W hieh indicates an undertone Of conf
dence. The consumptive demand for meats has
been good, anG the amount Of the produce which
has been shipped out since Nov. l is consider
ably in excess of what it was at the correspond
ing time last year. There was not much of a re-
action from the rapid and large advance reported
a week ago, and IL was of short duration, and a
further advance has been established on most
articles of the new products, such as green
meats, lard, mess pork and partly cured meats,
but there is n more liberal supply of sugar-cured
and sweet picked meats, and although there is
. good demand for them, the natural tendency
is TO a reduction In the high prices which have
prevailed. There is a material increase in the
foreign movement OF all articles; the exports for
the week ending last Saturday Amounted TO 49,
1885 pounds, against IL, III $40 pounds for
The preceding week, and 1904, 99l pounds for
the corresponding week last year; the increase
compared with last year was largest OF bacon,
bat II was very large of lard also"
Special reports TO the Cincinnati Price Current
show the number OF hogs packed from Nov. l to
date, and latest mail dates, at the unlermen-
TONED places with com PARSONS, as follows:
