A Clue That Promises to Clear Up
 the Charles River Mystery.
 BOSTON, Aug. 18.-Experts have to-day identified piece of carpet found at the house of Frank Mitchell on Endicott street as of the same make and design as the piece found wrapped about the middle portion of the mutilated female corpse found in the Charles river Mitchell has been arrested. The colors do not quite harmonize, but piece of the carpet last found has been sunk in the river and will be allowed to remain a day or two to note the effect on the color. The piece first found has been turned over to Professor Wood of Harvard college, the State chemist, who will endeavor to estab fish the colors as they originally were in tn 6 piece Many short white hairs were found sticking to both pieces and to day it was as- certained that Mitchell owns a white bull dog which is shedding it's hair profusely. The dog has been placed in safe keeping un- til needed. A female neighbor of the Mitch els swears that she took supper with them on the night of Mrs. Mitchells disappear ance and that the meal consisted of beefstead and cucumbers. At the autopsy @ quantity of undigested cucumber seeds were found in the victims stomach. Mitchell declares that they did not have cucumbers at that meal. The above evidence with that of the dentist who extracted the tooth for Mrs. Mitchell which was found missing in the jaw of the victim, together with the identifcations of the plaster cast and the photographs by neighbors and others, is all the evidence there is so far against Mitchell. Some doubt whether he can be held unless further evidence is discovered. There is great jealousy and bitterness between the State and city police over the case, which ln- terferes with the proper working up of evil dence. Mitchell maintains an unconcerned demeanor and positively denies that the body of the victim besas any resemblance to his Wifa

A CLEAR FIELD FOR HoADLEY.

A CLEAR FIELD FOR HOADLEY' Thurman,s Refusal To Kun Leaves
 Him Master Of The Situation.
 CoLUMBUs, Aug. 1S.-Delegates to the Democratic State convention arrive on each train and the hotels are full. The prelimi- nary work of organization will begin early tomorrow morning in order that everything may be in readiness for the convention which is to be held in the opera house on Thursday. The indications point to an unusually har- monious convention. It is thought, how ever, that there may be slight contest ever the selection to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Judge Oakley. Old State politicians say that all differences will be buried and that the party will be unit in endorsing the administration of President Cleveland. Judge Thurman is quoted as having fatly declined to enter the race and friends of MT. Converse say he has no desire for place on the ticket. f'This,' in the Ian guage of one of the old timers of Ohio poli- tics, "means George Hoadley, first, last and all the time Indeed, fair canvass of the field tonight indicates beyond doubt that Hoadley's renomination is already cut and dried" When asked by representative of the United Press whether it had been defi- nitely ascertained that Governor Hoadley would accept renomination prominent delegate said: "Oh, that's all right. Gov. Hoadley will accept. He cannot help it. He will be nominated by exclamation and cleo ted, too"
 It is a fact that delegates who prefer Con verse at the head of the ticket have been whipped into the Hoadley ranks. They say that there is no probability of Converse's name coming before the convention except it be for second place. The chief interest ap pears settled in the platform and there will be a strong pressure brought to bear to in corporate plank authorizing liquor li- eense law and the indications point to it's success Should it turn out that Judge Thurman finally consents to the of his name there is doubt but the present har mony will be broken to some extent, but the Hoadley men claim that noth- ing can now prevent the Governors renomination. Governor Hoadley is expect ed here tomorrow and it is hoped that he may be induced to settle the question as to the use of his name. The convention will nominate candidates for these offices: Gov ernor, lieutenant governor, judge of Supreme court, judge of Supreme court (to fill va cancy), treasurer, attorney general and mem bers of the board of public works. There will be in attendance 761 delegates and SS1 votes will be necessary to choice.

PATRICK EGAN SPEAKS And Denies That the National League
 is Dead.


 CHICAGO, Aug. 1s.-Patrick Egan before leaving for his home in Nebraska to-day took occasion to reply to the New York Daily News article which declares that "the Irish national league in this country is now vir- tual1y dead" He said; "The representatives of the league from all parts of the Union ought to know better than the News. They say it is not dead and the great convention which will be held in January will demon strate that 1t is both alive and strong" Speaking of the decrease of funds Mir. Egan says that during its first years there was threatened famine, evie- tiens more numerous by thousands than those of later years. parneii and his asse= eiates were imprisoned and an extraordinary impetus was given to the raising of funds by the issuance of the "no rent" manifesto. For these and other reasons, many of which no longer exist, funds have not come in as they did in for mer years. In regard to his alleged manifesto MT. Egan denies the existence of a genuine manifesto. He simply wrote brief letter | correcting misrepresentations of the press | and stating why he preferred Blaine. In do- | ing so he exercised merely the privilege | which belongs to any other citizen, that of speaking for himself and correcting erroneous statements made concerning him. MT. Egan l cites number of instances to disprove the charge that the league was used for political purposes in Blaine's interest. Vice President Doherty, he is happy to see, has been hon ored by the present administration and ap pointed to an office.
