TO HOLD AN AUTOPSY,

Smiler's Body To he Exhumed To-
day-DOubts as to Coroner Levy,s
Right to Hold an Inquest over the
Murderer's Body.
New YORK, July 13.-Coroner Levy will
have the body of Harris Smiler, one of
the murderers who was executed with cleo
tricity at Sing Sing, exhumed tomorrow
and hold an autopsy. The inquest will be
held next Monday. The coroner has con-
suited no counsel, but has looked up the
statutes referring to the case, and feels
that he has jurisdiction in the matter. He
will impanel jury of medical men and
electrical experts and subpoena Warden
Brown of Sing Sing and the other wit
nesses of the electrocution. If they disre-
gard the subpenas he will have warrants
issued for their appearance.
ALBANY, July 13.-Attorney General
Tabor was asked to-day under what au-
thority Coroner Levy could exhume the
body of Smiler, the murderer who was
executed recently at Sing Sing, to examine
into the cause of death. The attorney
general replied: ''There was never any
authority for a coroner holding an inquest
over person executed. The fact that
there must now be as formerly post-mor-
Geu 68duludClOH Qelu anu ceTUlucAue OF
death filed is the best evidence in the
world that no new inquest is TENDED. The
penal code makes exact prov isions for the
kind of cases in which coroners may hold
inquests and it does not cover this case.
Any attempt on the part of Coroner Levy
to hold an inquest on the body of Smiler
would be misdemesnor, for which he
could be indicted and for which he ought
to be and probably would be removed by
the governor"
"Then he has no jurisdiction to compel
the warden or witnesses of the execution
to appear before him snd answer ques-
tions?'
"The warden and all of the witnesses
viii be advised in case Coroner Levy at
tempts to hold an inquest, that they need
not answer any questions, as he would
have no jurisdiction to compel them to
do sou

THE GILLIAN TROUBLE.

The Leaders In the Plan to Capture
the Government Cruisers Impris-
oned-The Insurgents Defeated.
NEW York, July 13.-Important infor-
nation regarding the latest developments
in the Gillian trouble was received by
cable to-day by commercial houses with
interests in that country. 1t is stated that
the plan to capture the government tor
pedo cruisers, Almirante Lynch and AL
mirante Condell, at Valparaiso, by bribing
the crews, was discovered, and the leaders
in the scheme put in prison. On Tuesday
and Friday of last week the insurgents en-
gagged the government in battle at Co
quimbo and were defeated with great loss
of life. All the insurgent vessels took
part in the engagement. The attacks, it is
stated, were resolved on by the insurgents
when they received the news of the Paris
decision in regard to the new cruisers just
completed in that country. Owing to this
defeat and the growing strength of the
government great Generalization exists
among the insurgents.
