AWAITING THE VERDICT.

The COrOner's jury Likely to Conclude
it, Work To-day-What the Verdict
VIII Probably be.
There was a prolonged secret session Of
the Coroner's jury yesterday in the
Haertel case, which has created such a
sensation in the community. the session
lasting nearly eight hours. \ NEWS re-
porter called upon the Coroner last night
IN order to ascertain what conclusion if
any had been arrived at. He stated that
to-day would probably conclude the work
Of the jury. During the ten days they
had been together over one hundred wit
uesses have been examined. the testi-
Inonv filling over five hundred pages Of
foolscap paper. The most important
evidence which had been given in
were the facts ELECTED in the examination
Of Mrs. Mendel, who lived on Lovers
Lane. and who testified to the presence Of
the two parties at her house late on the
night of the murder, He further stated
that during the whole session Of the jury
there had been no tangible evidence given
i'm by which even a suspicion might rest
on any one party. and that there would
he little doubt as to the jury rendering a
verdict some time during the day. From
present indications he thought the verdict
would be: "Came to their death by the
hands of murderers unknown"
1t has been stated that the case will 90
into the hands OF one Of the oldest de-
tectives in the city, who, it is believed,
viii bring the guilty parties TO justice.

History of the Old Engine-The Changes
She Has Undergone and the Improve
ments that Have Been Made-To be
Tested Tomorrow.
The Waiver Steam Fire Engine
Company have been engaged in
repairing the old steamer j. j.
Waver'' since last June. The work
was completed yesterday morning, and
the old engine looks as fresh and as new
as when she was bought by the Federal
forces in 1852. The engineer, Mr.. W. D. Pu-
der, has been constantly at work on the
repairs since June ID and has Overhauled
and renovated the engine throughout.
Her history is quite interesting. In 1852
the United States Government purchased
the engine, and she was sent to Hilton
Head to protect the bonded warehouses at
that point. In 1868 Captain Henry Blum
bought her from the government for the
sum OF s., 900, for the Germania Fire Com
pany. Her original name was the UNITED
States" but in the great fire of 1888 on
Congress street, nearly opposite the Mar
ket, the President Of the old Germanla,
J. j. Waiver, lost his life by an explosion,
and in honor of the gallant fireman the
name of United states" was dropped,
and that Of u. J. Wayer' instituted IN
stead.
After the organization Of the present
Fire Department in 1877, the Germania
Company disbanded as a fire Organiza-
ton and the Waivers succeeded, retaining
the name of the engine.
The old ''Waver'' has been in active SER
vice since 1868, up to the time she was
laid up for repairs. Her pump was broken
at the fire at Messrs. Puder Il Downs
woodward. near the canal, early in the
spring. and since then she has been
out of active service. The "Waver''
now looks like new engine.
Her new wheels were built by the
Amoskeag Locomotive Works, at Man.
chester. y. H.. and are solid and sub
stantial piece Of workmanship. The hind
wheels are sixty inches in diameter. The
front wheels measure tifty-four inches,
and weigh two hundred pounds each. The
tire is 55X5 inches thick, and is strong and
durable. The entire set of wheels cost 1924,
and give evidence of skilled work. A new
suction hose has also been added, which
cost $2S. With these repairs complete
the "Wayer" is probably the most
substantial engine III the department.
Her strength. capacity and durability
Will be publicly tested tomorrow in john
son square, under the supervision of
Chief Engineer OsceOla Butler.

she was placed under arrest and taken to
