The Warden Thinks He Has a Clue to the
Escaped Murdersrs.
NEW YORK, April 26, 1693.-At Sing
Sing Prison today all is mystery. The
officers refuse to say whether they have
discovered any new clues to the escaped
murderers. Roehl and Pallister. or In any
way discuss the chances of their capture.
Heretofore 1t has been customary for
either Warden Brown or Principal Keep
er ~Connaughton to briefly outline the
plans of the day. But now even
the latter declines to tell anything
about the movements OF the scouts who
are still out in search of the missing men.
All he would Say when questioned was
hat it would be advisable for the report
ers to remain about the prlson today.
The Warden later told a reporter that
he was going ava today on what he re-
garded as the only possible clue which
has been ecelved so far.
If | am not greatly mistaken" said he,
I'VE are on the right track now, and not
far behind the missing men. | will not
say that we will get them today. but |
am positive that we will capture Them be-
fore my tiiue as warden of this prison
expires. / will be back home at four
o'clock this afternoon. Until then there
will be no news. but | expect at that time
TO be able to make a statement which will
be of great interest to the public, and
which will show that this search has been
conducted in the right way
The warden got on the half-past nine
train going south. and it was learned
that he got Off at T~arrytown, where he
was met by State Detective Jackson n
one of the keepers, who has been out
since Friday morning. jackson left here

Little Light Thrown on the Question OF
Who Stole Shann's Stomach.

| Little Light Thrown On the Question o.
Who Stole Shann's Stomach.
Special TO The jersey CITY Ne,vs.
TRENTON, April 26. 1s03.-An inquest
was begun yesterday by Coroner Louis
Coulter into the cause Of death OF john
Sham, and for the purpose OF throwing
some light on the mysterious theft OF the
| intestines of the deceased.
The State was represented by Coupsy
Prosecutor Bayard Stockton. and Mrs.
| Shaun, the mother OF the young man,
was represented by Barton 81 Dawes,
| prominent criminal lawyers or Trenton.
DR.. j. Bergen. who attended Young
Sham, was the first witness, and consiu-
cred the young man had died of gastrltis.
and said that ne had detected no other
symptoms.
Shaun's mother was on the stand for
some time. She repeated the story of the
mysterious early morning visit of three
unknown men, and expressed the opinion
that the two men who went upstairs cut
open her son q removed the viscera.
After they left she entered the room and
detected a blood spot on the sheets, and
then called a boarder named Van Celus,
who came into the room and made a
hasty examination. He announced that
something was wrong. She admitted
that the day before the mutilation of the
body she received a note from f. A. Bor-
den, a local insurance agent. which In
formed her that an autopsy would be held
the next day. She subsequently met Bor-
den, and he told the witness TO destroy
tie note. which she did
Reuben Van Celus, the boarder whom
Mrs. Shaun called, was the next witness,
and stated that when he and Mrs. Sham
entered the room In their stocking feet
the sister of the dead man awoke aud
arose. yet she remained sleeping during
the cutting of the body.
Insurance Agent Frank )rden test fed
that he took a risk on young Shaun and
that DIR. Bergen, the physician for the
Manhattan Company, told him on We'd
nesday that it would ne necessary to hold
an autopsy on the body. He admitted
writing the note TO Mrs. Sham notifying
her of the autopsy. He could not say
why he requested the destruction OF the
note. The impression prevailed that this
witness knew more than he was willing
to tell.
Undertaken j. w. Sham, of Kingston,
a cousin of the dead man, WAS also an
unwilling witness and had to be closely
questioned. He was asked what he meant
by his remark ut County Physician Caut-
wells autopsy. when he sail, IF there is
anything wrong about this case o gem
tlemeu must not blame me-" He at first
denied it, but Coroner Coulter insisted
chat he overheard the remark, and then
Sham admitted that he was nervous aud
did not know what he said. He was
closely questioned as to his Knowledge OF
the business, and he admitted that he
was an expert embalmer, had received IL
certificate, had passed au examination in
anatomy, and had attended many lee
lures and ~autopsies. he had sseu bodies
opened like young Shann's. and he knew
the location OF the internal organs.
At this point the inquest was adjourned

We understand from a reliable

imperative need of immediate action

From this point of view, MI. Bou-

Tomorrow's Great Holiday.

Tomorrow GreaG hOiliays
Acting in part upon the suggestion
of THE JERSEY CITY NEWS, and in
part, OF course. upon the promptings
of his own patriotic feeling, Mayor
Wanser has, we are authoritively in
formed, determined to give the
city a holiday tomorrow. We
print in another column of today's
paper his proclamation ordering a
general cessation Of public business.
This is as it should be. 1t shows
that His Honor is wise and public
spirited in matters of peace as we'll as
in wal. Every public official, every
school teacher, every school boy and
girl, and indeed every man. woman
and child will thank him. Tomor-
rows day is not for business. 1t is for
the celebration of the second great
est event in the history of the world,
and everyone should take part in that
celebration.
Now that the Mayor has done his
part, let the people do theirs. Lei
them turn out in tens of thousands to
participate in the great demonstra-
ton. Not only is it their duty to
their country, in order that
their patriotic enthusiasm may
be made conspicuous in the
eyes OF the foreign visitants; 1t
is also their duty to themselves; for
never again. perhaps, will any living
man have such an opportunity to
survey the maritime forces of the
great powers OF the earth arrayed IN
all their pride for the peaceful glori-
fication of their national standards
The occasion is a whole education
in itself, and everyone should fill him.

Charles f. Clark. who had a plumbing
business at No. 81 Montgomery street,
died in 1889. His will devised the store

partners. Bertrand had a ST. COO interest
In his fathers estate which included con-
siderable property outside of the plumb
ing business. He transferred his interest
to Mrs. Clark in exchange for an I'M
divided half interest in the store and fix
lures.
Demorest didn't have S17,0 goo SO Mrs.
Clark sold to Demorest on condition that
he should pay $50 on the first of every
month until the 81, 900 were paid.
The payments were kept up until June
/, 1899. when the firm made an assign
ment to Nathan Bowen as receiver. This
morning Counsellor John A. DENIM asked
VicelC Chancellor Green for an order TO COM

the property assigned to him, on the
ground that Demorest did not own the
