DEATH OF DIR. ALEXANDER.
A Prominent Citizen of st. CIairsville
Passes Away.

Special TeltgrGm TO The Register.
Sr.CLAIRsvMLE, March l6.-Dr. John
Alexander, one of our most prominent
and energetic citizens, died at o'clock
this morning, after an illness OF one
week Of paralysis. His exact age is not
known, but he was past eighty. He was
born near Belfast, Ireland, and came TO
this country in his sixteenth year. He
taught school and studied medicine un-
Ill 1892, when he commenced practice
at Flushing, O. Ia 1899 he removed to
this place, where he has since resided.
As a practitioner, DR.. Alexander stood
very high. In his early and middle life
his practice extended over large terri
tory, requiring long horseback rides.
Always well mounted, DR.. Alexander
rode farther in day than any one in
his profession.
He was an authority on blooded
horses. and contributed largely TO the
Improvement OF the stock OF
this section. The deceased was
long remarkable for his uncom-
promising position IN favor OF tenn
perance. The same may be said as to
his politics; yet withal, strictly honora-
BILE. and generous to fault. Taking
the high standard of the ethics Of his
profession, aS well as that of his own
personal views as to duty, he never in
his long life refused to answer a call on
account of the improhability Of being
paid. Within ten days prior to his
death he walked a long distance to visit
an aged patient, risking his life on the
icy streets in so doing, and his final and
fatal illness came upon him at the bed
side OF a patient he visited before day
light that morning.
He went down as he lived, working
TO the last. He was for many years a
member of the Presbyterian Curch. The
funeral will take place at ? o'clock next
Wednesday afternoon.

BELIEVED TO BE A RUsE.
Singular Circumstances Attending the
Death of Ruttinger.

Death OF Ruttinger.
New YORK, March l6.-District At
torney Fitzgerald, OF Tottenvlle, ). l.,
who is investigating the mysterious
death of Carl Ruttinger, to-day found
in valise, among Ruttinger's effects,
photo-negatives of Ruttinger and his
brother-in-law, Wright. After care
full comparison District Attorney Fitz-
gerald said that he had no doubt that
Ruttinger was the dead man lying
in Bedeis morgue. A reporter who
saw the negatives was struck by the
resemblance of Wright to the man who
committed suicide in the AstOr house
February 3, and who was buried under
the name of Fred Evans" The offic-
ial description of the Astor house suicide
as recorded at the morgue is Give feet
six inches tall, IS years old, blonde hair,
curly; blue eyes, small blonde muStache,
red cheeks, roman nose, slim built,
weight l20 pounds, small hands,
small feet. Evans was believed TO
be diamond cutter. All the
names and tags were cut of
the clothing. lie registered as from
England. Wright was also diamond
cutter. Wrights description is ;
feet inches tall, weight l42 pounds,
light hair, blue eyes, light mustache,
slight figure. One Of Wrght'S sisters
is named Evans.
The latest and most important de-
velopment in the case, as it is being in
vestigated by the police in this
city and in Staten Island, is
the discovery that Ruttinger's
life had been insured in Il German COM
pany and through Il foreign branch of a
New York company in the aggregate
sum of $50, 900. This has led to the
theory that possibly the body which was
found bound and gagged in the marshes
at Tottenville was not that OF Ruttenger
and the whole mystery is an ingenously
graveyard insurance plot. In
other words, it is suggested that the
may have obtained body
of Il man very much resembling Rut- !
finger in appearance shipped II To Tot
dressed ii up in Ruttinger's |
clothes, and placing the passport in the
pocket, dumped the disguised corpse |
into the arbor with the expectation
that, when found, the only means OF
would be the clothing aud |
the written documents.
