A CRONIN SENSATION.
The Supposed Bloody Clothes of "Cocl
ey" Found.

The Supposed Bloody Clothes of "Coon
ey" Found.
MILWAUKEE, Wis, December 8.-The
supposed bloody relics of the Cfonin
tragedy have bsen discovered in this city
and are now at the Milwaukee police
headquarters. They are clothes thought
to belong to the missing suspect, Cooney,
and with them in a trunk were four
blood stained handkerchief, a number
OF photographs and n bundle of let.
ters. Police Captain Schuettler, of
Chicago, made the find, acting on
an anonymous letter from milwaukee,
calling attention to the fact that the sus-
picious articles were in the possession of a
Milwaukee txpressman, John H. Mooney.
Capt. Schuettler left Milwaukee to-day
taking with him the letters and photos.
His destination could not be ascertained,
and the inference was drawn that he had
started to run down q clue furnished by
the letters.
A MYSTERIOUS STRANGER.
On May %, the Sunday following the
discovery OF Cronin's body, Expressman
Mooney was sccosted by stranger at the
Union Depot looking for a quiet boarding
house. The stranger was taken TO Moon
ey's home and remained there few days,
but went out for stroll one night with
another stranger and has not since
been seen. The bosrder forgot TO take
his laundry and never claimed the trunk.
The Mooneys broke open the trunk and
the mysterious circumstances have bsen
matter of gossip in the neighborhood for
some time. One of the pictures in the
album and MONEYS description OF his
bosrder both tally, it is said, with the
missing COoney.

PROF. JOSEPH +. JONES answers
the question, as it safe to drillthe
earth too much?" The professor
assumes the earth to be hollow
sphere filled with gaseous subtance,
called by us natural gas, and he
thinks that tapping these reservoirs
will cause disastrous explosions, re-
sulting from the lighted gas coming
in contact with that which Is escap-

the gas in the interior, which, if ex-
