They Died Together.


CONTINUED FROM THE FIRST EDITION.
Coroner Patterson investigated the case this
afternoon. An autopsy was performed by DIR.
Hartigan, and the conclusion reached ON the
appearance of the organs was that death re-
suited from coal gas poisoning.
This conclusion was confirmed by the expert
ments made with the stove which showed that
when a fire was started gas escaped in consider
able quantities into the bedroom upstairs. The
room was tightly closed up when the bodies
were found.
The contents of the stomach will be analysed
by Chemist DeSmedt.
NO INDICATIONS OF FOUL PLAY.
Coroner Patterson said this afternoon that
there were no indications of foul play. There
were no indications, either that the couple had
poisoned themselves, and the only conclusion
he could reach now before the analysis was
made was that death was due to coal gas

RICHMOND, VA, Dec. 5.-Many members of
the legislature have gone to their homes. There
Is now q cessation in the senatorial struggle.
Rival headquarters however, remain in opera
ton, the greater activity being on the side OF

alleged Conrad Mccormick intrigue relating to
Riddleberger's seat is still the subject of much
comment and may affect the vote of some of

no less than Mr.. Conrad, is understood to have
expectations of succeeding Riddleberger.

THE LATE ID. n. HARROvER.-The remains Of
Mr.. d. A. Narrower, who died of heart disease
at his residence in Chattanooga, Tenn NOyem-
Der 10th, were taken in charge by Mr.. Sharp OF
that city. and prepared for burial, brought here
by friends and received by Mr.. Barker The
body presented a natural and life-like appear.
ance. This was particularly gratifying TO his
son, w. III. Narrower, of Cincinnati, and his
daughter, Mrs. Albert Buckier, of BROOKLYN n
Y, as well as large number or relatives and
friends Of this city, to whom he was greatly en-
deared on account OF his affectionate and sym.
pathetic nature, and noble traits OF character
shown In all relations of life, both public and
private. The impressive service of the
Episcopal church, OF which he was a
member, was conducted by Rev. DIR. Geisy. of
Church Of the Epiphany, and Rev. DIR. Leon
ard, OF ST. Johns church, at the residence OF his
brother, 923 q street. The pail-bearers were
members OF the Railway Mail service with
which the deceased had been connected for
twenty years. Interment was made at Con.
gressiOnal cemetery, where the dust of many of
his loved ones rest. Numerous floral tributes
many OF which were elaborate, mark the place,
and give proof Of the affection felt for him by
those who knew his worth.

HOW TO GET IN.
And How to Get Out-lIatters which
will Repay Consideration.

And How to Get Out-Iatters which
will Repay Consideration.
There is going to be an enormous
gathering of people at Washington next
month, and while every provision is be.
ing made in advance to avoid confusion
and insure the comfort of all, still "the
gods help those who help themselves"
To look out for number one is but the
natural course sensible man would fol.
low. The railroad situation in Wash
ington is easily to be understood. There
are but two depots in the city. Into one
will come an aggregation of travel from
the south, the north, the east and
the west-train after tram, thousands
upon thousands of people, until "packed
like sardines in box" would be but a
feeble way to put it. Into the other de-
pot will only come the trains of the
Baltimore and Ohio, that company
owning and using it exclusively for its
own business-everything in the hands
OF its own officials. and details so arrang-
ed that there can be no mixing up nor
getting on or off trains at wrong times
and wrong places. Indeed, it would not
take much thought on the part of
those who have had any experience
whatever as to crowds to appreciate the
advantage the B. s. o. possesses in
Washington. Then, too, there are the
facilities the lines have in regard to
track room and unrestricted means of
getting trains directly into depots. For
instance, the B. & o. is the only road in
to Washington which can and does
separate its passenger business 80 that
trains from the west come into Washing
ington on the tracks of one division and
the trains from the east and north upon
the tracks of another division.
The great importance of these facili-
ties may be appreciated from the fact
that all the trains that enter the national
capital, upon other lines than the B. &
O., come together in single depot, and
the packing and jamming will be some
thing terrific to behold, let alone getting
in and about them. The great number Of
trains from the southern lines alone would
