Life of Railway Men.

The life of railway men does not seem
t" be very healthy nor yet a very enjoyable
one, If any reliance is to be placed on the
observations of medical men who have
given some attention to the subject. Ac.
cording to NJ. Duchesne, railway men
improve in health during the first four
years, but at the end of ten they are
tired out, in fifteen they are actual suf.
ferers and very few can remain in the
service after twenty. These general con-
clusions have been supplemented by DR.
Lichtenbag of Buda-Pesth, who found
from examination that out of go railway
employees, ninetv-two, or more than q
third, suffered from ear disease. Engine
drivers are especially liable to rheumatism
and pneumonia, and after some years
service a certain proportion of them
become dull of sight and hearing. Others
suffer from mild form of spinal concus.
sion, muscular feebleness and continuou.
pains in the limbs They are also apt tc
develop peculiar mental state-a sort Of
cerebral irritation-with excessive ner
vousness and morbid sensations of fear.

Talk About the Matter
CHICAGO, June 12th.-Alexander Sulli-
van declined TO see any callers this morn
ing except his law partners, and none OF
the horde of curiosity seekers who gained
admlttance to the cage were able to get q
glimpse of him. To a friend who sent
Sullivan a note from the Jail office, ex-
pressing unshaken confidence in him and
firm belief in his innocence, the ex. Presi-
dent of the Irish National League returned
the following reply
/ am very grateful for your kind words Time
and the truth will justify you in their use SIN
cerely ALEXANDER SULLIVAN.
Sullivan's frieds are considering the ad-
Visibility of getting out a writ of habeas
corpus. This morning A. S. Trude and
other friends of Sullivan held a consulta-
ton with Judge Tulley. What the nature
OF 1t was none would reveal. Mr. Trude.
however, said that it was very probable
that writ would be applied for.
This afternoon Sullivan made an applica-
ton by attorney, returnable at O'Clock,
for writ of habeas corpus. 1t asserts that
the verdict OF the Coroner's jury is insult
ticient for his commitment without bail :;
that though a large amount of extra judicial
evidence was taken by the Coroner, no testi-
mony sufficient TO justify his incarceration
was produced. and his imprisonment is the
result of passion and prejudice. He de-
clared he "as entirely innocent of any con-
nection with Cronin's death.
WRIT OF HABEAs CORPUS ISSUED.
CHICAGO, June 12th.-After listening to
the petition of Sullivan's attorney, Judge
Tulley issued awrit as prayed returnable at

on the Murderer,

a Chicago Paper Thinks 1t Has Its Eye
on the Murderer.
CHICAGO. June 12th.- The Herald of to.
day advanced the theory that John Walsh
sometimes known as John Hanley, the
famous Inyineible, had hand in the mur.
der, and that the assassination was ordered
from across the water. Walsh was in Chi.
cago several weeks prior to the murder o
DIR. Cronin. He was seen here at various
times until the middle of February He
said nothing about his business. Walsh
accompanied by Philip Mccarthy of Chi
cago, aided in the escape of the Fepians
from Australia in the Catalpa, in 1867
Walsh was selected for this dangerous task
because of his great strength and iron
nerve. When he returned to America he
became possessed of the idea that the irish
men of the world owed him living and
acted accordingly. From that time 10 the
present he has done no manual work.
Walsh is an athlete. Though nearly 80
years of age he does not look to be more
than 35. He stands 5 feet IL inches in
height, and can handle an ordinary man
with the greatest of ease. Walsh was a
trusted agent OF the Invincibles, and was
assigned by them to do dangerous work
He made six trips to England. When the
Clan ina Gael passed into the hands of the
famous triangle Walsh was pressed into
service. Acting, it is said, under directions,
Walsh made protracted visit to Ireland
and England, returning with valuable in
formation. While there he went under
the name of John Hanley. There is no
record of Walsh's work for the triangle in
the United States, but there are numerous
stories which associate his name with the
disappearance of many men.
as TO HOLDING SULLIVAN.
CHICAGO, June 12th.-Judge Tuley this
afternoon announced that he would read
the testimony taken before the Coroner
jury in the Cronin murder case and decide
whether or not there was enough evidence
to hold Alexander Sullivan without bail
He will announce his decision Friday

years ago never had been out of the city
since, and has not travelled five miles on
the railroad since that time. For the past
thirteen months he had been employed in

Referring 10 statement in a morning
paper to the effect that he had been in
Indiana, Mcdonald said that such was not
the case. He never had been in that State
The only time he had ever met Dillon was
on the lst of May last. He had never
said word to Dillon about Dr. Cronin.
Maroney said that he first became ac-
quainted with Dillon in Philadelphia years
ago. He believed that the charge against
Mcdonald and himself had been brought
so as to make scandal for the friends OF
Sullivan.
He had known Dillon when he was an
obscure slipper maker and had seen him
go up rom that until he had secured
enough power to be able to order the arrest
OF man in Timbuctoo or China, so long
as he was a Sullivan man.
In regard to Mcdonald, Maroney said be

time. While they were not enemies, they
were never particularly friendly. As to
