HOW DID HE DIE?

By Violence or From Natural
The body of J. II. Cannant was
found yesterday morning, face down.
wards on plank, near the San An
tonic and Arkansas Pass roundhouse.
The discovery was made by Gusto
Perroni, an Italian vegetable seller,
while on his rounds, who thought the
man was sleeping and so reported to
the family who live near by, as he
passed. Thomas Cannant, oldest son
of the deceased went out to arouse
his father and found him dead, his
hat jammed tightly over his head,
one arm outstretched, the other by
his side and his face bloody, he hav-
ing apparently bled from the
mouth and nostrils. The body
had evidently been lying some
time in the sun and the
neck was black and swollen. Justice
McA Ulster was summoned, examined
the body, but found no marks of
violence save small bruise on his
cheek and another on his left temple.
The inquest was held today, Drs.
Johns and Bennett making postmor-
tenn examination to ascertain the
cause of death. The police seem to
think it a case of foul play, the work
of sand baggers who after smuggling
their victim placed him where he
was found. This is a mere conjecture,
however.
The deceased was a man of good
habits, sober, about Sc years old, and
had been employed about the round
house for some time. Deceased has
two sons, one an engineer ON the S.
y. p. road. He was last seen so far
as known atabout o'clock Saturday
night standing near South Flores
street on the S. A. p. depot premises.
waiting as though for street car.
Justice McAllister concluded the.
coroner's inquest on the remains to-
day, and returned a verdict of death
from natural causes" An autopsy
was held by Drs. Johns and Bennett
and disclosed the fact of the rupture
of an aneurism of the aorta of the
heart. This large blood vessel had
burst. DR.. Johns says this could oc-
cur in man who was apparently per-
fectly healthy; more particularly in
an old man, and any violent exercise
or strain could cause such a rupture.

DR.. r. c. Black of Georgia, is in the city
on visit. He has devoted the last six
years of his life to curing cancers alone, and
during that time has not failed to cure a
single case. He came in possession of a
remedy from experiments made on a very
bad case, which killed the cancer in forty
eight hours, and in ten days time the whole
thing was removed and the affected parts
began to heal rapidly and was soon well, no
signs of it ever having returned.
He has cured hundreds of cases within
the last six years, and wants the public to
understand that he treats nothing but can
GERS. The doctor makes no charge until
the patient is dscharged-cured. He will
remain in San Antonio, Texas, several
months. Consultation free, at 40 Pre%a
street or at 4O2 East Houston
street. DR.. Black is 4 graduate of
the Medical University of Pennsylvania, at

lie Caron's Startling Revelation.

CHICAGO, May 27.-The following
sensational story was published here
this morning. The police have been
put in possession of facts, which if
true, are far more important than was
ever expected concerning DR.. Cronin's
murder. 1t has been clearly shown
by the dead mans friends that his
removal was ordered by a committee
in some way representing the Clan
Ma Gael society. Charges of traitorous
conduct were preferred against him at
meeting of a Clan-Na-Gael Company.
He was found guilty and his removal
ordered. The charge was based on a
statement of the British spyLe Caron,
that there were four more spies in
America. When LIE Caron made that
statement on the stand before the
Parnell commission, he was ordered to
state the names of the spies; he said he
dared not, because if they were
known they would be murder
ed. Presiding Justice Hammer
then took him in closed
ante-room and in the presence of
Richard Webster, attorney general
CoHutCVlnS 1io prosecution, anu OH
Charles Russell, Parnells attorney,
LIE Caron stated the names. Within
forty-eight hours after this news was
cabled across from Europe, nearly
every Clan Ma Gael camp in America
had a meeting and passed resolu-
tions declaring in favor of a
rigid hunt for the four spies
finger of suspicion justly or unjustly
was p ointed among others, at Cronin
A committee was appointed, to try
him. He was convicted without be-
ing given a chance to make defence
and his assassins were brought
here from an outside point to
carry out the mandate of the COM
mittee. The latter was chosen
by ballot. 1t is claimed that the muir
der conspiracy would not have ended
with DIR. CrOnin, had not his body
been found so OppOrtunely. There
were other men on the eXecutioner's
list; they would all have shared
Cronin's fate, had the chance to dis
pose of them safely arisen.

PORT HURON, Mich, May 27.-At 2
o'clock this morning, about twenty
masked men forced open the county
Jail, took out Malatt Martin and hung
him from Seventh street bridge, where
the body still hangs. Martin is the
tramp that entered the farm house of
Jno. Gillis, four miles west of this
city, about two weeks ago and brutal
ly assaulted and outraged his wife.
She has been in a precarious condi-
ton ever since and not expected to

In the Tolls of the Detectives.

PHILADELPHIA. May y. - The
Record this morning, in speaking of
the arrest of Peter Mcclellan, in Chi
cago yesterday, says he mysteriously
disappeared from this city three
months ago, it is thought to fore
shadow other arrests, because it is
known he has been under surveillance
of Pinkerton detectives ever since the
disappearance of DIR. Cronin on
the 4th inst, though he was
constantly Swallowed, it was then
deemed wise not to arrest him until
other important evidence was obtain
ed to demonstrate how far reaching
was the conspiracy which had for its
object the murder of Cronin. The ar
rest of Mcclellan is interpreted in To-
cal Clan Ma Gael circles to mean that
the net is being drawn by detectives,
and that it will eventually lead to the
arrest OF the participants in the foul
crime.

Who Eirad the Shnt2

At Riverside park yesterday after
noon the firemen's picnic and the
Young Mems Benevolent association
picnic drew large crowd to the
grounds. While the enjoyment was
at it's best shot was suddenly heard
in remote part of the grounds and
the fun came to sudden stop. 1t was
soon discovered that Julius Weber,
a member of the Sunset Hose COM
pany, had received a shot in the up
per arm. Examination revealed
flesh wound only, of a not serious
character, and the general suspense
was much relieved. Webber can give
no explanation of the fact beyond this
he says he was suddenly struck in
the arm and from the direction of the
shot thinks it must have been fired
from across the river. He was taken
home and his wound dressed.
The bullet hole made in the pine
screen to the closet, OH the outside of
which Weber was standing when
shot, was examined. The hole made
did not bear out his story that the
shot was fired from across the river.
The shot was fired from the inside,
and Webber's friend, Joe Hauck, was
inside. Whether he had a pistol is
not known, but the shooting was GER
tainly accidental and is not serious.
