LIVERPOOL, ENG, May 29.-The coroner's
Jury which has been investigating the
death of the fifteen-y ear-old boy, whose body

murder to-day against John Conway, steam
ship fireman and leading member OF the Sea-
mems and Firemen's Union, arrested May 2lst,
and charged with the crime. At the inquest the
testimony Of physicians proved that the boy,
whose throat had been cut and whose legs had
been cut off below the knees, had been mutilated
after death. IL was also proved by the same
testimony that the boy had not been subjected to
further outrage. Conway, who lived near the
victims house, admitted that he was the owner
Of the bag In which the body was found and
Of a new knife and saw which were evidently
used in mutilating the body and which were
found with the body in the bag. II was also
shown at the inquest that n room on the top noOr
of the building in which the Unions branch Of
fees were situated was spattered with blood,
which somebody had intellectually tried 10 clean
away. This room was much frequented by Con-
way.

accused fireman was that Of the man from whom
Conway purchased the sailors bag marked IT.
A. NJ, Girvan," and decorated with the British
and Norwegian ensgns crossed, in which the
body was discovered, that of cabman VINO

There was only one feature Of special impor-
lance I'm the trading OF tho day, and that was the
selling OF Louisville and Nashville, which was at

however, does not meet with general acceptance.

The opening was weak &C only small fractions
less than the closing figures OF last evening, but
the downward movement inaugurated at the
ton for the greater portion Of the day. Special
ties suffered, and Pacific Mail and Missouri Pa
cinc were weak all the way out. The industrials,
represented by sugar, were alsO specially weak,
but tho fluctuations In the street OF the list were
confined To the smallest fractions, while the deal

BERING SEA.
The Question of SupDlementing the Reve-
nue-Cutters with Men-Of- War.
tBy telNpraph TO the Disuatchl

WASHINGTON, May eft does not appear
that any change in the orders to the reve-
nue-cuttcrs has followed the action Of the British
Government in introducing the bill to prevent
British subjects from taking seals i'm Boring Sea.
The Bear, which IL to sail tomorrow from San
Francisco 20 Alaska, goes under the orders sent
last week. The cutter Corwin, however, Is in
readiness in case Of need % hurry after the cut
ters in Alaskan waters, with supplementary and
qualifying orders. The subject was not referred
to AZ to-day's Cabinet meeting, and there Is rea-
son 10 believe that this Government Is wait
ing upon the action Of the British Parlia-
ment before proceeding further. II was stated
to-day, by person In authority, that in case Of
the completion of the agreement with Great
Britain IL will probably DE necessary to supple
ment the force Of cutters in Boring Sea by some
naval vessel, in view OF the large number Of
pOachers that are understood 20 be in those
waters or ready TO enter them. Moreover the
cutters, with their small number Of officers and
crews, have by past experience shown their III
ability TO take care Of prizes after their capture.
There r. no disposition to repeat the past humili-
ating experience of placing n prize crew Of
one man aboard a seized vessel only 10 have
him carried of 10 a foreign port. SO IL Is posi-
BILE that some, and perhaps all, Of tho naval
vessels at the Mare Island nayy-yard with their
numerous crews may DO sent North as soon
after the agreement Is perfected by the action OF
the British Parliament as circumstances will
permit. There are az the navy-yard the Alert
the MOhican. the Marion. and the Thetis, the
last-named ship specially fitted out for such SER
vice as she would be called upon 10 render in the
northern waters. The Alert and the Mohican
are ready for sea and the other two might be put
in condition for service in a short time.
