A MICHIGAN MYSTERY.
Finding of a skeleton Furnishes a Possibl.
Clue tn n Missing Woman

Finding Of a skeleton Furnishes q Possible
Clue to n Missing Woman..
The officers of Flint, Mich, think they have
found q most important clue to Nellie Showers
disappearance, which occurred at Richfield,
Mich, last December. When Nellie disappeared
the whole state was aroused, but there was no
clue. She was seen in the kitchen where she
worked and an hour later, without any one see
ing her leave the house, was gone. The night
OF her disappearance q boy living near the
Otsville cemetery saw three men with sack
enter the graveyard. About pm. and an
hour later saw them leave without the sack.
This was commented on at the time, but the
clue was not followed.
Undertaken W. p. Kingsley had occasion to
set a m onument recently on a grave filed De-
cember 5, a few days before Miss Showers
disappearance, and digging for its base came
below the surface. The only means of telling
any thing about it was the long white hair
which still chung to the skull. Hardly any thing
but bones remained. There were no clothes on
the skeleton. and the fact that it was found in
q grave made less that seven months ago showed
that it had evidently been first buried long
before The police thought they saw a cine to
the shower case and went on the hypothesis
that the murderers, for they believe
Nellie was murdered, had taken her body
W tno grave Sdru IN u sack anu eltner
placed 1t in one Of the old coffins, in long
since disused tomb, removed the first occupant
OF the coffin and then buried it in the new-made
grave: The officers say by doing this they
would destroy all possible chance Of being
found out, as no one would know where it was
placed without searching all the graves that
have any indication Of being tempered with.
Even then, at this interval, no one could pos
sibly identify Nellie's remains and could not
prove her death. The theory was added to by
no 49, oil L. - h..
cemetery, which had been soaked with blood
The case presents many remarkable features
and is exciting the people greatly, the majority
holding the officers are right in their theory.

THE NEW POST OFFICE SITE.
Nothing Has Yet Been Done Toward Per-
fectihg the Title

The papers in the case Of the purchase
Of land for the new city post Office are still in
the supervising architects oafce, whence they
were returned from the White House last week
after their approval by the President Hence
nothing has been done toward the final clear
ing Of title 30 that the purchase money can be
paid tn e papers shou!d next 60 to the De-
partment of Justice and then be sent to the
district attorney for examination. With view
to determining the steps TO be taken toward
the perfection Of the title.
Meanwhile nothing is being done toward the
planning of the building. Mr.. Edbrooke, the
new Supervising architect said to a STAR re-
porter this morning that inasmiIch "a the law
does not permit the expenditure Of any money
on . public building, either in designing or
construction. until perfect title vests in the
government he had given the matter Of this
building absolutely no thought whatever. He
10 overwhelmed with other duties aud has post
poned consideration OF plans for the Washing
ton post Office To the time when he can
go ahead and make = clean sweep of
the Job He realizes the necessity for
. public building here. and sees the situation
very clearly, but he IL powerless TO advance
one step. He added. in response to a question
by the reporter: The building will be designed
and its construction supervised entirely by this
ONCE. There will be no opportunity for out
side architects TO compete for the work, as the
laws under which thu. bureau 10 organized are
explicit in prohibiting the designing Of build
ings by men outside the service in open COM
petition or otherwise

Could Not stand Temptation.

There is sensation in an Allegheny Pa. J
church. Thomas Porter Brown, connected
with Pittsburg and Allegheny families of wealth
and well known in the Fourth United Presby-
terrain Church on the north side, is behind the
bars awaiting hearing on a charge of embez-
element He was arrested on a warrant sworn
out by Mr.. Thomas Latimer, an Allegheny
dry goods and carpet merchant
Mr.. Brown had charge Of Mr.. Iatimer's car
pet department He was brought there from
New York, being an excellent carpet man, and
took position OF trust a month ago.
The firm discovered that Brown had appro-
priated considerable money by making false
returns Of sales, receipting bills &C. He was
warned Of the detection Of his peculations, and
Mr.. Latimer told him that he would give him
every opportunity to redeem himself and would
continue to employ him, but would remove
temptation by haring some other employe
handle the proceeds Of his sales. Brown
admitted his guilt and seemed grateful for the
opportunity to save his name. Startling dis
coyeries after the statements were sent out on
July led to his arrest.

THE PENTz's PILOT SUSPENDED.
The Result Of the Investigation Of the Recent
Collision.

Gen. Dumont, the supervising inspector
general Of steam vessels, received today from
the Office Of the United States local inspectors
at Baltimore the report made by Messrs. John
II. Cooper and William o. Saville, the local in
spectors, Of the investigation recently made
by them OF the collision between the steamers
Washington and Samuel ]. Pentz
The report saws: We have the honor to re-
port that this board commenced on June 90
at the custom house. Georgetown, d. c., and
concluded at Washington. d. c., on July 2,
1891, an investigation to determine the cause of
the collision between the steamers Washing
ton and Samuel J. Pentz, which occurred
on the Potomac river near Shepard's Point on
Monday, June %, about TO pm
We find the following facts as taken from the
evidence In the case: Both vessels left WASH
ington, DC. about pm. on Monday, June a.
1891. The steamer Washington was bound to
Norfolk. Va, via Alexandria, Va, and the
samuel j. Pentz to River View with 100 excur-
sionists on board. The steamer Washington
was about fifty yards ahead Of the Pentz, when
near Shepard's point the steamer Pentz, in
making an attempt to pass the Washington
with port helm, and being SO close to the
starbosrd quarter of the Washington placed
the Pentz in the displacement of the Washing
ton, causing (by the suction) the steamer Pentz
to be drawn under the stsrboard guards of the
steamer Washington, damaging the Pentz to
the amount OF ABOUT ElOO.
From the evidence submitted to us we are Of
the opinion that the collision was caused by the
unskillfulness Of Pilot r. Z. Tull in charge of
the Pentz in attempting to pass the steamer
Washington and not giving the signal and
receiving answer from the steamer WASH
ington, required by rule Of the rules and
regulations for the government Of pilots of
steam vessels as prescribed by the
board OF supervising inspectors Of steam
vessels, and by the violation Of rule % of
section 423S. Revised Statutes United States,
which say: when steamers running in the
same direction, and the pilot Of the steamer
which is astern shall desire to pass on the
right or starboard hand Of the steamer
ahead, he shall give one short blast
OF the steam whistle a signal of such desire
and intention and shall put his helm TO port,
and the pilot OF steamer ahead shall answer by
the same signal, or, il he prefers to keep on
his course, he shall give two short and distinct
blasts of the steam whistle, and the boat wish
ing to pass must govern herself accordingly,
but the boat ahead shall in no case attempt to
cross her bow or crowd upon her course" And
rule % of section 4233. Revised Statutes
U. s., says: Every vessel overtaking any
other vessel shall keep out Of the way Of the
vessel"
We hereby suspend the license of r. E. Tull, |
pilot of the steamer Samuel j. Pentz for a
period OF twenty days from July 8, 1891, for I'M
skillful navigation, and the violation of the
above mentioned rules provided for under
section 4i5O, Revised Statutes Of the United
States.

Her Tears Were Not for the Coat.


A wealthy cabin passenger who landed from
the Arizona on Sunday and who for his wife 8
sake does not care to have his name published,
says the New York Sun, tells the following
story:
'On Wednesday night when turned into
my berth found myself very restless, and at
about 2 o'clock on Thursday morning. being
still unable to sleep, determined to go on
deck and take a smoke. l dressed myself, and
as it was blowing rather hard carried with
me a well-worn light summer overcoat that
l had not used il long time. As the
breeze, though strong, was rather warm, how
ever, had no need OF the coat, SO l looked
had finished my cigar. Then l noticed how
shabby it was and held it ~ by the collar,
wondering whether had better throw it over
board or keep 1t until reached New York and
give 1t to some poor man. sudden gust of
wind decided the question for me. 1t filled the
old coat like a balloon. dragged it out of my
hand and carried it a quarter Of mile to lee
ward. Thoughts it rather a whimsical Incl
dent, and at breakfast tried to make my wife
laugh by telling her about it. but it did not
amuse her at all. On the contrary, she was so
distressed that she hastily left the table lest
any one should see her sorrow, and when
followed her to our state room found her in
tears.
Il was very much astonished. Between you
and me she Is more than ordinarily sensible
woman. and it seemed impossible that the loss
of a WORKOUT overcOat should have thus
opened the fountains OF her grief.
"'Oh, James, she said, L am not crying for
the old coat, but (sob) there were $500 worth
Of lace that bought in Belgium stitched into
its lining. knew you hated smuggling SO
didn't tel you about it. Boo-hoo.'"

The Betsy Ann Lunacy Case.

The Betsy Ann luuacy case came to a sudden
end in the county court in Syracuse yesterday.
Three years ago Mrs. Mason's brother, Alazon
Hicks Of Mariollus, began proceedings to have
his sister declared insane. Mrs. Mason was
worth 3S0, 200, and because she decided her
farm to her nephew. her brother fancied her
insane. There were two trials, and one jury
found her sane and another declared that she
was insane. The case came up yesterday for 3
third trial, whereupon counsel for MIR. Hicks
declared his client was ready to give up the
fight and conceded that Mrs. Mason was sane.
The litigation has used up half Of Mrs. Mason's
estate.
