ST.. LOUIS, May 31.--The POST
Dispatch, in an extra edition ye sterday
evening, states that after the pubo
lication of Maxwell's confession, lost
Wednesday week, the body of G. A..
Prelier was eXhumed and the parts
which Max we'll swore in his testimony
were diseased were dissected for the
purpose of ascer:aining whether or not
Preller had suffered from private
ailment.
The result of the investigation was
that no disordered condition was
found. Three doctors will be put on
tie stand to testify to this in rebutta
of Maxwell's testimony.
Maxwell's testimony in his own
behalf was continued Saturday. He
denied the statement that he had
endeavored to make any arrangement
with Mccullough, the detective who
testified few days ago, and in fact,
denied the truth of the entire story
told by the detective.
On cross the witness
related his movements since his depar.
ture from his home. No new facts
were brought out, but the witness was
made to contradict several Of his pre-
viOus statements.

The Third Case of the Kind.

ELPAsO, Tex, May 31.-An i'm
portant suit against the Galveston,
Harrisburg and San Antonio Railroad
the eastern branch of the Southern,
Pacific, was decided here Saturday,
w. S. Dickey, former freight con-
ductor on the road, sued for $4,000.
He represented that he was black listed
by the company, and was unable to
obtain employment at his following
anywhere in tho Southwest district.
District Judge Falvey, at the close OF
the arguments, decided that the case
was unsupported by the evidence, and
directed the jury to return a verdict
for the company. Dickey, after leaving
the road, obtained employment on the
Central Pacific, and was placed on a
bad list by that company. The list
was sent to the headquarters of the
road signed and copy kept, hence
the suit.
A number of prominent attorneys
appeared in the case. Several days
were consumed on the trial. The case
is the third of the kind brought in the
United States:

No Chance for the Labor Leader in

Marshal Cooper, of the Pennsylvania
Republican State Committee, is in the

the reports about Powderly running

believe in these stories at all. Pow,
derly is too shrewed to set himself up
to be knockep down by fifty thou,
sand Republican majority. Besides, l
don't think he cares for the position
he would prefer to GO to legislative
body if he enters politices at all. I
would not te surprised to hear OF his
nomination in the Scranton district.
When / was in Scratou few days
ago heard great deal of talk about
his running no Democratic labor
platform. Powderly himself, however
has given on intimation of his inten-
tions."
"Do you think he could carry the
district ?"
"No, 1 do not" said the stalwart
Republican leader, "but he would give
us the hottest fight we ever had out
there-that is, if he is reelected Master
Workman of the knights OF Labor at
the Cleveland Convention. He would
certainly make valuable addition to
Congress, but, unfortunately, he is
located in good Republican district.

would be sincerely glad to hear of his
