THERE WAS NO FoUL PLAY.


Cause of T.. FOrd's Sudden Death.
Elmer H. Ford, brakeman on the F., w.
d b. railroad, died suddenly at his board
ing house, No. 400 East Sixth street at 7.3O
O'Clock Monday evening. The cause of the
death was apoplexy. Drs. John C. Fahey
and Joseph X. Smith were in attendance
Coroner Sparks issued burial permit next
morning in accordance with the physi-
clans report that the cause of the death
was apopleXy. There was no post mortem
examination as the coroner, upon the
statement of the medical men declined to
order such action.
The sensational stories published in the
morning papers us to mysterious death,
foul play and other implications are con
demned at this time on every hand
There exists no basis whatever for them.
A careful examination of the remains
indicates the cause of the death. DIR.
Tahey's investigation on Tuesday accords
exactly with the first opinion given by DIR.
smith and upon which the latter reported
night as apoplexy.
The relatives and friends are extremely
distressed over the cruel rumors. The de-
ceased is only "a years of age and leaves
wife not yet 20 years old. Henry Wiley,
at whose house the young couple lived,
was present when the deceased expired.
His wife happened to be out at the time.
The deceased had returned from work ut
his usual time and complained of feeling
unwell. Mrs. Ford got him to lie down,
and then after seeing that he was comfort
able, went out Ia pay some store bills This
was at 7 o'clock. She had no suspicion
whatever of her husband being III any
danger When she returned he was dead.

From the way in which the name of
Benjamin Constant is linked with that of
Cosmon and Dagnan-Bouveret in the cur
rent MAGAZINE OF ART, one is led to expect
a disquisition upon each of these leaders
of the younger generation Of Parisian
artists. The first, surprising brilliant
colorist and usually occupied with oriental
themes, is poorly represented in black and
white. A sketch of MISSIONER gives
vivid idea of his painful devotion to detail
while working. The succeeding paper on
modern art is lavish in praise of John l..
Sargent and refrains from calling his
delicate impressionism" sensational.
However, as on most artistic subjects,
differences of opinion are in order.

The New ENGLAND MAGAZINE for the
current month opens with an article styled
"Walt Whitman at Date" by Horace L.
Traubel. 1t is prefaced with fine portrait
of the old poet from Gutekunst's most
recent photograph. The article is also pro-
fusely illustrated. The article, "The Loyal
lists" is a historical monograph of unique
interest. 1t is the one forgotten page in
American Omitted States) history which
the present timely offering has supplied to
the general reading public. Its graphic
illustrations tell half the interesting story.
"Notes Of Some New England Birds by
Simeon P. Cheney, is brief but extremely
interesting chapter Among the miscellany
is thestory of Poor Little Miss Severance ;
and the third chapter of Dorothy Pres
colts story "a Fair Exchange" Several
very interesting pages with numerous
illustrations are devoted to description of
the metropolis of Dakota. "Some Old
Newspapers" by o. S. Adams, is repete
with quaint extracts from prints of the
early years of the century.

mexicans Afraid of the gsmeralda.

A special TO the New York Mail and
Express from Acapulco says:
1t seems now certain that the Esmeralda
must have recourse TO some desperate
means 10 secure coal, for coal she mus1
have If she is to get back TO Chill 1t is
announced that the Pacific Mail Steamship
Company has ordered it's agent there not
to sell the Esmeralds any coal under any
circumstances. This order was commun-
icated to the commander Of the Esmeralda
and it is now thought extremely probable
that the Chilians viii take coal by force.
1t is thought the more probable and it is
now almost certainly known that the
Esmeralda's captain is in com mand of the
1tata, having boarded her when the two
vessels met OF this port on Friday night.
Should the acting captain of the Esmeral.
da decide to take coal by force, there is
absolutely nothing 70 prevent him from
hauling his vessel alongside the coal
houses and taking what he wants, for tho
forts are worthless as against the modern
ordnance, and the Esmeralda could, un-
molested, lay Acapulco in ruins in half an
hour. The Mexican authorities will
hardly offer opposition 10 a powerful ship
like the Esmeralda and thus bring about a
bombardment OF the town. Nevertheless
there is intense excitement
