Julia Craig, a young colored girl in
the employ of Mr.. Joseph Hannum. of
No. 234 East Hanover street, Trenton,
who had been complaining for some
time, gave birth yesterday to an in
FAINT. The child was very light in
color, and is thought to have a white
father. She had no medical attend
ance in her confinement, and when a
physician arrived the child was found
to be dead. There is reason to sus-
pect foul play.
An old colored woman who attended
the girl yesterday, and whose name is
Saunderson, asked Julia who was the
father of her child. The reply was,

THE KNIFFEN MYSTERY.
Interest in the Matter Revived by
the Grand Jury Meeting.

It police circles in Trenton no doubt
is expressed that Miss Pursel, of Kniffin
murder notoriety, will be indicted by
the Grand Jury. 1t is further stated
that not more than two or three OF
the witnesses who have testified be
fore the Coroner's jury will be put
upon the stand by the prosecution
when the S comes to trial.
Prosecutor Stockton was in town on
Saturday looking after the case. 1t
was his first trip here in ten days. he
will probably not be out again Tor
that length OF time, as his physician
has warned him that he is in just the
right condition to contract pneu-
monia.
Coroner Bower said on Saturday
that he didn't expect to call over Two
or three witnesses at tonight's SEES
sion of the jury, and perhaps none at
all. He could not give any names.
The reason given for holding the
night session is that the court room
and Grand Jury room will be both oc-
cupied all day. The Freeholders Will
not occupy their commodious quar-
ters, however. 1t is said that Roscoe
Murphy, the Misses Beer and Mrs.
Nellie Smith will be recalled tonight.
James H. Murphy, the father OF Mrs.
Knifin, and Policeman William Deck
and David Pursel's detective, Dalton,
are also mentioned as likely to be
called. The Grand Jury have not yet
taken the case into consideration.
