BEGGS IN THE BOTTLE.

The Chicago Police Have the Lawyer OF
Camp 2O-Rumor That He Has Turned
Informer.
CHICAGO. June 27.-The sensation of
yesterday in the Cronin murder case was
the announcement that Lawyer John +.
Beggs, ex-president Of camp 20 of the
Clan Gael. by which body it is held
that the physicians death was decreed,
and who was deposed from the presidency
of tho Irish American club a few nights
ago, had been placed under arrest Inves-
tigation developed the fact that he had
been taken from his lodgings shortly after
midnight and locked up in the Warren
avenue station. He was brought
down to the court house
late yesterday afternoon in a patro
wagon strongly guarded by police and
ushered without delay into the presence
of the grand jury. For an hour or more a
volley of questions was fred at him, but
to all evasive replies were returned. He
particularly refused to admit that shortly
before Cronin's murder he had made q
bitter speech in camp 20, denouncing the
physician q British spy. At the con.
clusion of his examination he was re-
turned to the station, but the police re-
fused to let any one see him
The prisoner is q well-to.do 1awy or and
has had some prominence as a politician.
1t is stated that his arrest was ordered by
States Attorney Longenecker.
Chief Hubbard, when importuned by
newspaper men who wished to interview
the prisoner. said Beggs did not wish to
be seen. On this foundation rumors
spread that Beggs was the camp No. 20 in
former, whom The authorities have inti-
mated they were in communication with.

A ST. LOUIS MYSTERY.

A Young Woman Found Dead in the
Streets-Murdered and Robbed.
ST. LOUIS, June 28-Early yesterday
morning lamp lighter on his rounds exc
tinguishing gas lights discovered the dead
body of a woman on Union avenue near
Forest park. He at once notified the police
and the body was removed to the morgue.
Every thing indicates that the woman was
the victim of foul murder, if not a more
heinous crime. She was elegantly attired.
Near her lay gold-headed umbrella, and
in the bushes near by was = bundle. The
face was scratched and on the throat were
finger marks. The woman's underwear
was badly torn and her legs were scratched
and bruised. She was about twenty five
years old and quite pretty,
A clew has been found to the murdered
woman's identity. Detective Desmond
took off her shoes and on examining them
found that they were from the shoe store
of Joel Swope in this city. He at once
went to the store and the bookkeeper,
upon consulting the shipping book, found
that the shoes had been purchased on
April 80 and on May shipped to Annie
Weiss. Madison House, Jefferson City, Mo.
The body was taken to the morgue,
where several Jefferson City people called
and positively identified it as that of Anna
Weiss head chambermaid at the Madison
House. that city.
An autopsy was held and it was found
the woman had died from conclusion of
the brain, caused by the blow on her head.
She was enciente. She had been visiting
Mrs. Hollingsworth a sister, of this city
on her return from relatives in Terre
Haute Ind, and it is reported that she
had an unknown lover in this city.
That the body was robbed after the
murder there is no room for doubt She
had about sixty dollars in money and a
pair of diamond earrings worth ninety
dollars, when she came to St Louis. The
earrings were given to her by Mr..
McLaire, a guest of the Madison House
last winter while he was i'll there for .
week. The earrings were not found on
the body, neither was the money.
