HON. WILLIAM DARRAGH KELLEY.

testinal catarrh, brought on by a cold
contracted during Christmas week.
For some years, however, he
had been almost a constant suf-
ferer from cancerous growth
in the side of the face, which was re-
moved about six years ago by surgical
operation. The relief thus obtained
was only temporary, and since that time
1t has developed so rapidly during the
past year that it must have soon con-
quered had he not earlier fallen vic
tim to the catarrhal affection. He was
nearly Seyenty-SiX years old. During the
later years of his life his general health
has not been good, SO that he easily fell
victim to the weakening influences of
disease. The funeral services here will
take place in the hall of the house of
representatives on Saturday at noon.
Judge Kelley was born in Philadel-
phia April IL, 1914. His grandfather,
John Kelley, served as an officer in the
Revolutionary war. Having lost his
father at an early age, he learned the
printers trade, and later served an ap-
premiership to a jeweler in Boston. In
1S40 he returned to Philadelphia and
began the study of law, and year later
was admitted to the bar, and while
practicing his profession devoted much
time to literary pursuits. He.
WAS ELECTED ATTORNEY GENERAL
of Pennsylvania, in 1915 and in 1876
was judge of the court of common
pleas of Philadelphia. In 1860 he was
delegate to the National Republican
convention, and in the same year was
elected to congress, where he served
continuously ever since. lie has been
member of numerous committees of
the house, and chairman of some of the
most important notably, the committee
on ways and means. He has served in
the lower house longer than any other
member and for this reason is often
called the "Father of the House, He
has tor many yeals been known as
''Pig-Iron" Kelley. He. was at one
time free-trader, but later became an
ardent protectionist and wrote several
works in opposition to the free trade
theory. Among his works are ''Reasons
for Abandoning the Theory of Free
Trade and Adopting the Principles of

manner of doing business was TO employ
peddlers, large number of whom can
vassed the adjacent country in their in
terest with satisfactory results. Last
fall Ellis & Co., pleading bad times and
slow payments, secured large line of
credit from leading houses in this city,
probably reaching S25,00O. The variety
of the articles purchased was peculiar.
Everything purchasable was purchased
boots, shoes, clothing, dry goods,
and even lumber. Immediately upon
receiving these goods the firm began to
sacrifice them for anything they could
Orlng, selling the merchandise at ridic-
ulously low rates. The Montreal mer-
chants were told that something was
wrong. Before they could do anything,
however, the news came that Ellis 81
Co. had crossed the border.
Detectives have succeeded in recover
ing S10,000 worth of the S25.O0O worth
of goods. out of which Ellis 81 Co. at
tempted to defraud Montreal merchants.
Ellis & Co. got away with the rest of
the property. 1t has been learned that
the firm treated Philadelphia mer-
chants to a similar experience about
three years ago.

BIG MILLS IN A BLAZE.
Hoosier Hominy Mills Destroyed
by Fire,

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 9.-At o'clock
this morning fire broke out in the West
indianapolis hominy mills, and at 4
o'clock the immense building, covering
quarter of an acre, was mass of
ruins. The mill was one of the finest
and largest in the country. 1t was
built by Hall 81 Lilly, but Mr.. C. E..
Hail was the sole owner of the plant at
the time of its destruction. The loss to
him is particularly severe at this time,
as the mill was running full time to
catch up with orders, which have been
unusually heavy. Loss, $4,000; insur-
ance, $4,000.

Opposed by Davis.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-The Western
Congressional association is not likely
to get the members from Minnesota to
join it. Some of them may, but in view
of the outsp oxen opposition of Senator
Davis it is not thought probable that
they will. Davis takes the position that
a united West, or anything that could
be construed as such, would at once an
tagunize other sections and cause the
birth of other clubs composed of New
Englanders, Southerners, Eastern men
and so ON. He does rot. therefore,
deem it wise to become identified with
any such organization. Mr.. Carter, of
Montana, takes precisely the opposite
view of the case, saying that the West
is numerically weak. and is liable to be
stronger acting as unit than without
any union at all.

frantic unfortunates fought like de-
mons, all knowing that but a few of
them could pass thr Ough the inner trap
before the air chamber was completely
filled by the inrushing tide. Only one
could go through at time, and as one
man gained a pre-emnence he was
snatched by his frenzied companions
and drawn back into the struggling
crowd. Meanwhile the flood
ROSE SWIFTLY AND REL EssIY.
The caisson roof was scarcely higher
than the mems heads, and to be left be-
hlnd was thought to be certain death.
Taylor says he was the last of the sur
ylVors to escape into the outer lock. AS
ne escaped from the clutches of dozen
nandS and leaped through the tran into
the outer lock he heard Knox, the fore
man, shout: For Gods sake, hurry
boys, It's getting over my head; let the
shortest men go first" The
Trap fell back behind Taylor
and shut his deemed comrades from
view. 1t is supposed that before any
otIlefs could escape they were all
drowned. The workmen at the pumps
at late hour tonight, however. think
there is chance that some of the i'm
prlsoned workmen are still alive. The
ar gauge on the engine which pumps
air INTO the caiSSon shows a strong and
steady pressure of air in the air shaft
and caisson, and it is thought possible
that the compressed air in the caisson
will be sufficient to keep the water
from rising to the top, and that some of
the men may be able to keep their
heads above water until relieved.
ALL KNOWN TO BE DEAD.
LOUISVILLE, Jan. 1O.-At l a. m. the
outer chamber of the casson was
reached and three bodies were found.
All of the men in the caisson
proper are known to be dead.
Messrs. SoOy, Smith & Co., of New
York are the contracting engineers i'm
charge of the caisson work: the Phoenix
Bridge company, of the Pennsylvania
corporation, have the contract for the
contraction of the bridge. The engineers
theory of the accident, which is partially
supported by facts obtained from the
workmeu who escaped, is that the fore
man, who, 1t is alleged. had been drink
ing, while attempting to reduce the
air pressure. turned the valve Of the
supply pipe too far, and the pressure OIL
the interior of the caisson became so
low that the caisson settled in the mud

LET OUT ON HABEAs CORPUS
DIR. Kniffin and His Affinity Give
Bonds and Go Free.

DouuS anu UO HreG.
TRENTON, n. j., Jan. 9.-Kniffin and
Miss Purcell were released tonight on
writ of habeas corpus issued by Chief
Justice Beasley~ Counsel for the de-
fence made an argument before the chief
Justice at o'clock this afternoon. At
6 o'clock his appeal was granted, and
the prisoners were at once notified of
their good fortune. At7oclock tt e TWO
prisoners were taken from the back en-
trance of the Jail yard and
driven to the residence of the
chief justice, where some fifty promi-
nent citizens had assembled to 20 on
their bond, and did so justify. The bail
was $4,000 in each case, tWenty-eight
citizens signing for DR.. Knifhn and four
teen for Miss Purcell. All of the sign
ers are Well-known and influential citi-
Zens. The releases were then made out
and signed by the chief Justice; and.
after receiving the congratulations of
counsel and friends. the doctor and Miss
Purcell we're driven to the Kniffin resi-
dence. Tomorrow Miss Purcell will go
to her former home in Broadway, in
warren county, and DIR. Knlffin will
spend the intervening time between
now and the opening of court with his
brother-in-law, in New Brunswick.
The court room was full again this
morning. DR.. Cornelius Sheperd, the
first physician who entered the house on
the morning the murder was discovered,
ed. was the first wituess. Cold and stiff
he found Mrs. Kniffin lying in bed with
arms uncovered. Her liDs were swollen
and purple, a sure sign of danger where
chloroform has been administered. He
could detect no odor of it or ether in the
room. He found Miss Purcell in the
next room in her night dress and shawl
Her condition and pulse were normal.
Wilson Raymond, DR.. Kniffin's office
boy, told practically the same story as
others about the condition of the house
on the morning of the murders dIscov-
cry. Undertaken Ashmore and Lewis
Zelly gave unimportant testimony. Ed
ward Wilks, Druggist Patterson's boy,
testified that Kniffin bought aconite of
them few days before the murder. On
the morning of the murder he saw foot
prints in the frost on the roof of the
shed. William Davenhorn gave unim-
poltant testimony, when the INQUEST
was adjourned till Monday, when Prof.
Cornwall, OF Princeton, will give the re-
suit OF the chemical analysis of the

are is not known, but the number will
probably not fall below two or three
