Farming Murder Case.

Farming Murder Case.
Mary Almarolia, tho colored woNan
who was arrested on suspicion of boing
found on vacant lot, as stated in yester-
days REPUBLICAN,, was charged in the
police court yesterday with receiving
money under false pretonses. The prose-
cutting attorney stated that there were
facts which were outside of the case which
would lead TO another form of charge. Tho
woman was too Ill TO appear. and bail was
fixed ut 5000 for her appearance and trial.
Tho charge Of false prctensos grows out
of statement made by Lottic Coleman,
colorcd girl who was delivered of q
child in tho house July 4. Whilo in the
house sho was requested to vacato her
room for young white girl who was
coming there for similar purpose. Sho
also saw another colorod girl come there
on the same orrand. Lotto stated that
having paid the charges and recovered on
Aug u, she gave Mary S15 to take the child
to ~. Ann's infant asylum, and she sup
posed the child was there. When she won't
to her mother aud talked over matters the
latter agreed that she shonld raise tho
child, aud both of them went to st. AIMS
to got It, but found that no such child
had been received there. They then
went to 500 Mary, but could get from her
no satisfaction as to what disposition had
been made of it, and few days since
Lottie reported tho case to Mai. Dyo, who
assigned 1t to Detective Cox This officer
learned that ON the 9th of August, less
than an hour aftor Mary left her house
with the child for st. Ann's, Mr.. Lowry
found child on tho Indiana avonue
parking, between Second aud Third
streets, and turned t over to officer
Smith; that the police had given it in
charge of Mrs. NokesStho wife Of col
ored barber, and tho latter had turned it
over to her mothor-in-law, at 719 Second
street southwest, where the mother found
the child. Tho police arc still working
on the case and have already conclusive
evidence that the woman has practiced
baby farming for somo time, while the
evidences of graver charges Is growing
stronger as the inquiry proceeds.

COLUMBUS, OHIO, Aug. 22.-All the
miners of tho Sunday Crock valley and
along the line Of the Ohio Central railroad
quit work to-day. The union miners are
all out in both valleys. The cause for
quitting Sunday Creek valley is said to
be that some of the cars of the Hooking
valley syndicate were being used. The
usual advance to so cents was looked for
by the miners on Sept. /, but the opera
tors now say that no more coal will be
mined in the valley at q higher figure
than so cents. As this valley was tho
principal support of the idle miners Of the
Hooking valley region a crisis in the
strike will soon be reached. Trouble il
feared in some quarters.

If this is correct the home club will have
no such "picnic" this afternoon as they

aside from the restoration of confidence
that the Wilmingtons will experience
