CARDINAL GIBBONS.
He FavOrS High License and Con-
dennis Prohibition.
THE MYSTERIOUS CASE OF CRoNIN.
Sullivan and Black, or Woodruff,
are Indicted-The Evidence In the May
brick Cases Bad for the Wife.

BALTIMORE, May 2S.-Oardinal Gibbons
is an earnest advocate of high license. In
a communication on the sSbiect he says
81 am decidedly opposed tspzohibition as a
means of preventing intemperance because
it does not prohibit. Experience has shown
that in those states where prohibition has
been tried it is not an effective means of
preventing the vice of drinking. Prohi
bition is to be discouraged also because it
confounds the drunkard with those who
use liquor in moderation making out
sin where there is no sin.
The only places where prohibition
might be enforced is in Tricky settled
country districts. l regard high license,
with moral.sanction, as most efficient way
of diminishing the drinking vice. In order
to make high license effective, only lin
tied number of licenses should be issued for
each ward, and they should be given only
to persons of good regulations
The cardinal is also in favor of a severe
policy for a Sunday law prohibiting the sale
of all liquors on Sunday, ana would have
that law rigidly enforced

The Bishop INQUEST.

Especial to THE HBRALD-EXaminer Dispatch. |
NEW YORK, May 2S.-The inquest on
Bishop was continued yesterday by Cor
oner Levy. DR.. Robertson being called.
Lawyer Atchison announced that he would
examine him only with the understanding
that he could, if necessary, impeach the tes-
timony. Witness had Bishop for patient
nine months in 1887. Bishop was subject
to hysterical epilepsy. Epileptic and cata-
leptic symptoms are similar, varying in
different cases. Bishop had an attack of cpl
lepsy in his Office after an operation He was
insensible, with slight rigidity, after brief
commissions. Relaxation enSued after an
hour The patient was in a comatose con-
dition, apparently dead. The pulse and res
piratiOn were imperceptible The witness
applied the usual tests and remedies. A
few weeks after Bishop had another cpl
leptic fit, the symptoms being frothing at
the mouth. He remained in this fit three
hours. After the first fit Bishop implied
fear of being buried alive. The word au-
topsy was not mentioned nor did the witness
hear Bishop say he had taken any precau-
ton against it. Undertaken Hawks and his
assistant testified that they saw nothing to
indicate that Bishop was alive District
Attorney Macdonald wanted to know who
notified the board of health. This elicted
the fact that the board of vital statistics
was not informed until after the autopsy.
Section 800 of the penal code prohibits the
diss section of a human body without the
consent of the relatives or under the direc-
ton of the coroner.

He alluded to the recent fair of the post
at which a lottery with money prizes was
held, and he said he had waited for words
from some other source than the pulpit,
but as yet no one else had spoken. He on
behalf of his own and all Christian

olating the laws of the state.

fought for law and barred their breasts to
bullets in the maintenance of law, but they

Detectire Robert Bracs,s storr

CHICAGO, May 27.-The Daily Ners has
the following: Detective Robert Brace
who has been conducting private agency
in this city, walked into Lieutenant
Elliott's Office this morning and said that
several months ago Alderman Mccormick
offered him 81, 100 to kill DR. Cronin Brace.
who has just returned from three months
stay in Texas, says Mccormick paid him
800 in advance and agreed to pay the re-
naming $1,000 when the job was done.
Brace declares that Mccormick told him to
feign sickness in mis- office and then send
for DR.. Cronin and kill him. Brace SAYS he
took the 800 and spent it for liquor and
never made a move toward carrying out
the contract. Brace bears rather an un-
savory character and the police do not
place all reliance in his story He has been
in numerous scrapes in this city.
