A SUSPICIOUS POISONING CASE.
The Stomach of One of Three Dead Children
Sent to PIttsburs for Analysis.

SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DrsPArcH.i
GREENsBURG, April 10.-A deep mystery
surrounds the death of three children of David
Carroll. who lives at this place. One week ago
the children were taken suddenly ill, but in
spite OF all that could be done by physicians,
the children died after suffering terribly. The
physicians ordered an investigation, as symp-
toms strongly pointed to poisoning. The chill
dren had been running in the fields and had
also been eating some canned corn, etc., but 1t
was thought best to hold a post mortem, and
the stomach of the oldest child, who was years
of age. was sent to Pittsburg tor analysis.
The physicians are very reticeut in regard to
the case, but enough has been learned to in
dicate tuat the children had died from poison
administered by some person. 1t is said the dose
was powerful one, and was sufficient to cause
the death of dozen mer. Two other children
in the family are seriously ill. and il is learned
they will die. The Carroll family is composed
of himself and wife and her sister.

FEARS OF A WATER FAMINE.

Reservoir Cleaning.

Reservoir Cleaning.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsP ,TcH.I
MCKEEsPoRT. April 10Th reservoir is to
be cleaned and also the well at the pump
house. 1t will take fully week to clean the
latter, and during the process no water can be
pemped. The reservoir holds 5,000, 900 gallons
of water. and the city consumes one-half of
that amount daily.
In all probability the water must be then
pumped to the city direct into the mains, and
this will give a very poor quality of water. A
water famine is feared. and during the progress
of the work very strict police and fire regula-
tions will be enforced.

The contest on the diamond Wednesday

arrived on the accommodation train,
which was delayed half hour at the

time set for the game. Notwithstanding
this, the home team was not ready until
the visitors had time for considerable prac-
tice. The home team was poorly organ
lied and came struggling along, one by
one. long after the game had begun, with
substituted players. High WINS contin-
ued during the entire game and it was
anything but pleasant for the spectators.

the general sentiment among these wit
nesses and also in our intercourse with
people, that the verdict as rendered by
the jury was contrary to law and
evidence and secured mainly through the
designing and interruptions agents en-
ployed for the special purpose of defeat
ing justice; at that meeting a detetmina-
ton was shown that the people would
not submit to the surrender of their
rights into the hands of midnight assas-
sins and their powerful allies. The assas-
sination of the late chief of police shows
elimination of conspiracy. His death
was deemed necessary to prevent ex.
posure and punishment of criminals
whose guilt was being fast established
by his diligent pursuit. The condition
of affairs in this community as to certain
classes of violators of the law, had
reached such state that law
itself was we'll nigh powerless
to deal with them, so far reaching was
their power and influence in the trial of
criminal cases. Good cltizins we're pro-
foundly impressed by the repeated and
signal failures of justice. The arts of
the perjurer and briber seemed to domi-
nate III the courts, paralysing and rem
dering powerless the ends of justice.
In the public meeting referred to, so
general and spontaneous was the upris-
ing of the masses that we doubt if any
power at the command of the authorities
would have been sufficient to overcome
It's intentions. 1t is a noteworthy fact,
IN connection with the uprising, that no
injury whatever was done to either per-
son or property, beyond the one act
which seemed to have been the object of
the assemblage at the parish prison. We
have referred to the large number
OF citizens participating in
this demonstration, estimated by
judges from 5000 to 5000. regarded as
spontaneous uprising of the people. The
magnitude of this affair makes it a
difficult task to fix guilt upon any num-
Der of participants; in fact, the act seemed
to involve the entire people of the parish
and city of New Orleans, 80 profuse is
their sympathy and so extended their
connection with the affair. In view of
these considerations, thorough examina-
ton of the subject has failed to disclose
necessary facts to justify this grand jury
i'll presenting indictments"

New Orleans Sentiment.

New ORLEANS, May 6.-The States
says: The report of the grand Jury
brings to light a number of startling
facts, all more or less directly concern
ing the assassination of the late superin-
tendent of police in this city. The mis-
carriage of justice in the prosecution of
the murderers and the subsequent lynch
ing Of the latter in the parish prison.
Naturally the grand jury could indict no
one or no number of persons concerned
in this. The "people' did it, and no
grand jury could devise way to indict
the people"
The Times says: The grand jury has
made Il proper return in the parish pris-
on lynching--a return that will meet
with the approval of the entire people,
not of New Orleans alone, but of the
country. The case had, indeed, been
tried by the press before the bar OF pub
lie opinion and verdict of not guilty
and and finding of "well done" had
long since been returned as to the men
whose act suppressed the Malta and gave
warning to the criminals of Europe that
they would find no home in this coun-
try.
The Picayune says: We accept the
declaration of the inability of the grand
jury to get information as to the partici-
pants in the storming of the parish pris-
on. Doubtless there was large sympa-
thy in the community with the perpetra-
tors of the act after they we're commit
ted but dSympahX after the fact ct is not
jury could not find the guilty parties.
That is plain enough.
