BASE BALL GOES DOWN
1t is Going to Join the Roller Skate
Craze and Other Old Fads

NEW YoRK. june IF indications are
counted for anything baseball, as a pro-
feSsion. has gone to Join the roller skate
craze. For some time past the old time
craze has been slowly slipping into in
nocuous desuetude. but this evenings
carefully obtained figures would APP
parently leave little doubt that the great
lad of fads in America Is now thing OF
the past. People have become aware
that baseball has become purely money
making scheme. That arrangements be-
tween the clubs are made Is unmistakable.
and the fight over the division Of the
spoils has convinced everybody. Even
the most passiOnated deVOtees OF the
game have at length become disgusted.
Further evidence seems unnecessary than
the all but appalling statistics makingpia
the fact that the attendance at the games
has dwndled to literally baker 5
dozen" as compared with the Old-time
crowd of few years ago. These few
years themselves tell the story and seem
ingly sound the death knell OF baseball as
a profession. The record as clearly as so
many words could tell it that franchises
and properties which two years ago were
worth millions are today comparatively
worthless. with the hackers of clubs pay
ing the salaries and board bills OF their
hired men out Of their own bank account.
There were no exceptional circumstances
TO make the days figures low. bad or the
| like.

of all teegraphed from Tunstalls

MORE CAMDEN HORROR.
The Body CT a Murdered Man
Found Secreted in a
Graveyard.

CAMDEN, Dec. G, 1890 What appears
to be another horrible murder, near the
scenes of the famous LeConey and Annie
Miller tragedies. at Merchantville, has
been unearthed by Coroner Jeffries, Of
this city.
While searching yesterday in Jobnson's
Cemetery for the body Of young colored
girl he came across a grave containing
the body of man who is supposed to be
James Good, colored resident Of viii
mlngton, who mysteriousiy disappeared
while on a visit to Merchantville several
months ago.
The authorities are thoroughly puzzled
A rope was found around the dead man's
neck and the body lay in an old pine box
stuffed with salt hay. Old clothing lay
under the body also. which was promptly
removed TO the Camden morgue-
Detectives Warner aud Gallagher and
Prosecutors Jenkins and Ridgeway are at
work on the case. which. they say, is un-
doubtedly one OF muruer.
People in the surrounding country are
in terrible state OF excitement Rumors
of all kinds are afioat. One is TO the
effect that the man had confessed to the
killing of Mrs. Annie Miller and had been
lynched: but IL is known that this Is
false.
Inc DOuy Is Dauly ueCOmpOSed aud mas
probably been in the ground for six
months. The Prosecutors theory Is that
the man was murdered and then buried
in the cemetery at night by his assassins.
This he deduces from the surrounding
circumstances.
A Coroner's jury has been imDanelled
and will Immediately hold an inquest.
Detective Gallagher indorses the mur-
der theory aud thinks that he has a clue
10 the assassin.
There is no record of the burial Of the
man.
The body was discovered in a most
singular manner. One week ago resi-
dent OF Boston wrote to Camden
seeking information about the body
Of Maggie Ash, a colored girl, who
had been buried in Johnson's Cemetery,
a burying ground devoted TO eolored peo-
pie near Merchantville
Every day for the past week Coroner
Jeffries has made an effort to locate the
body of the missing girl.
1t was while in the pursuit of this work
that he yesterday discovered pine box
buried less than thirteen inches below
the surface. The earth in the vicinity
OF the grave was disturbed, ana the
Coroner thought he had found the
coffin which contained the girls body,
but upon opening the box he was horri-
fed To find instead of coffin the nude
body Of a colored man, lying face down
ward, rope around his neck. which had
cut deep iuto the flesh. the limbs twisted,
and the whole appearance suggesting
sudden death and murder.
