4 SEALED MYSTERY.


Death of the Victim or a Mysterious
Railroad Accident in New Jersey.
BLAcKwooD. n. T., May 1S.-JoEn
Stevenson, the Swede who was found
lying on the platform at Fishers cross
ing ON the Camden and Atlantic rail-
road, May 8, in an unconscious state,
with his arm broken in several places
and his skull crushed, after remaining
IN an unconscious condition for nine
days. died at the Almshouse hospital
yesterday. II Stevenson died from IN
juries at the hands of an assassin his
secret dies with him. He never regained
consciousness, but lay in stupor until
he died from the injuries sustained.
No Investigation Attempted.
The residents Of Camden county are
indignant because Prosecutor Jenkins
has made no attempt to investigate the
circumstances of Stevenson's death.
There are many who believe he was a
victim of foul play, and suspicion rests
on tramp who was with him, and who
IS alleged to have qualreled with him
on the night he received the injuries,
and upon whom other suspicious cir
cumstances rest.
These facts have all been laid before
Prosecutor Jenkins, but thus far no ac-
ton has been taken, the prosecutor de-
claring that in his opinion Stevenson
was killed by a railroad train. In the
meantime Stevenson's companion of
Wednesday night, May s, has disap-
peared. The last seen of him was on the
day when Stevenson's insensible form
was found under cedar tree at Fishers
crossing. The man, who was Swiss,
looked at the unconscious body and then
disappeared. A coroner's inquest will
be held over the remains of the old
Swede, and by this the facts of whether
or not the case was one of foul play may
be established.

LOUISVILLE, May 18.-The report sent

dition at his trainers stable is not alto
gether unfounded. While his owner

after his race for the Clark stakes. il,
which he was defeated by Spokane. and

mired her for the intellectually and fine
traits Of character that she possessed.
Last week a mulatto woman, well. dressed,
was found dead in Prince Georges county,
Md, near the District line, by some children
while they were rolling eggs. Detective
Ratf, of Washington, was given the case,
and few days ago fastened the murder of
the woman, whose name it has also been
found was Eliza Foster, a resident of South
Washington, upon Nelson Thomas, colored.
Eliza Foster and Thomas lived together,
and after he received $1o5 from her, which
she had stolen from her employer, he took
up with another woman. Eliza threatened
to divulge his connection with the theft if
Thomas did not give her back the $105 or
return to live with her. To avoid punish
