THE Statesman is greatly exercised
TO know what the governor sis going
to do' with the $4,000 placed at his
disposal by the legislature. The act OF
appropriation says the money shall be
used for the payment of rewards and
ferreting out and suppressing crime.''
1t is safe to assume, speaking gener-
ally, that the executive will apply the
money TO the purposes thus specified.
When the appropriation is exhausted
the Statesman will no doubt be able to
see an iternized account of how every
dollar was spent.

BISHOP WHELAN'S REMAINS.
An Attempt to Steal the Body from the
Vault at Wheeling, W Va.

WHEELING, w. Va, Jan 19.-The most SEN
sational attempt at grave robbery which ever
transpircd in this part of the country, was made
on Thursday night, but owing to the efforts of
the interested parties to keep it quiet it was not
divulged until tonight. The would-be despoilers
of the dead are unknown, and clew to their
identity has been obtained but their work shows
them to be experts, and only an accident pre-
vented the success of their scheme The scheme
was deep laid one, being no less reckless and
sacrilegious a design than the stealing of
the remains of the late Rt. Rev. r. "
Whelan, late Catholic bishop of the diocese of
Wheeling whose bones rest in a brick vault be

in Mt. Calvary Cemetery. in the suburbs of this
city. Bishop Whelan died in 1864 The outer
door of the chapel though heavy and strongly
barred, forced with a jimmy. The floor Of
the room is covered with linoleum, which was
neatly cut i'll a space just over the vault. The
flooring was then torn up, and the earth dug
away from one side of the vault The bricks
for sufficient space to allow the casket to be re-
moved, were then loosened and removed, and
the casket had apparently been lifted from the
vault, but again replaced 1t is Supposed from

away the body on the succeeding evening. The
bricks were loosely but neatly replaced in the
wall, the flooring carefully relaid, the linoeum
readiusted, and the outer door closed, and the
marks of the jimmy as nearly effaced as posi-

funeral is to occur, but on Friday he, for some
reason entered it, and at once discovered that
the outer door had been tempered with. A
further investigation revealed the cut in the
linoleum and the full extent Of the operation of
the sacrilegious visitors was then quickly ascer
tanned. Word was at once sent to the Cathedral,
TO Bishop Kahn, and last night and tonight
armed detectives guarded the chapel.

THE MUTT TRIAL.
The Defense Offer to Submit the Case With
out Argument.

PITTsBURG, Jan. 19-The sensation of the
day; if not of the week, in the Mutt trial, was
tho bold move this afternoon on the part of de
Tense to have the case submitted to the jury
without argument. The prosecution con
iclpded the rebuttal testimony early this
morning, and at II o'clock, the defense not car
ing to offer any evidence in sur rebuttal, the case
closed. Major Brown then read the law points
bearing on the case for the defense, after which
a recess was taken. When the court resumed
Marshal Swartzwelder arose and suggested that,
in order chat the peoples anxiety might be re
lieyed and the trial be terminated as quickly as
possible, with the consent of counsel the case be
submitted without argument, and upon
the charge of the court. Said he: 81
venture to say that there is not person within
Incorporate limits of this eity-nay, within the
county of Allegheny-that is not satisneo as 70
the verdict that should be rendered IN this case,
and | am satisfied that the jury is well able to
render verdict
This suggestion startled all present and had
the effect of bringing the prosecution to their
feet Mr. Patterson protested against any move
of the kind, and the court, sustaining them, Or
dered the proceedings to go on. 1t was generally
believed that the proposition was only Il bum on
the part of the defense, but all agreed that IL
was admirably done.
