Mgr. Satolli, the Papal Ablegsts in
this country. Is visiting the coast for
pleasure and to make the acquaintance of
its Catholic clergy. While in Tacoma,
DIR. 0'Gorman. his interpreter, stated to
an Associated Press representative that
there are pending diplomatic negotia-
tions to bring the Greek church Of all

of the Car, into the keeping of the Watt.
can. Father O'Gorman was asked to re.
duce this statement to writing and have
Mgr. Satolli sign it, in order that there
might be- no question as to its authenti-
city.
He said: THAT is unnecessary; speak
for Mgr. Satolli. I have talked the
whole matter over with him. and you
can say that he says it through me. his
interpreter"
The party arrived at San Francisco
last week and Mgr. Satolli confirmed the
report that negotiations are pending to
bring the Greek Church Of Russia under
the Holy See of Rome, and he believes
that the prospects are good that it will be
done. The Greek Church does not en-.
join celibacy on its priesthood, but Mgr.
Satolli says that that will make no differ
ence, as the marriage of priests is not
prohibited by the Ronnish Church, but is
only made rule for purposes Of disciI.
line. The Church has made its clergy
celibates not because it was sinful for
them to marry, but because by being
kept free from family ties they were
more effective in the cause OF the Church.
Not being fathers OF families made them
better fathers of congregations. The
love and devotion they could not lavish
on wives and children were given to the
church. As marriage among the clergy
was a recognised institution with the
Greek Church it was not probable that it
would be disturbed, though Of course,
the Pontf would endeavor to discourage
it.
The fusion OF the two branches Of the
church, Satolli says, will make the Pope
the ecclesiastical head Of the Russian
Church, whereas now tho head is the
Gar. Otherwise it will make no differ.
ence, except to cement the Catholic
Church all over the world and bridge
over all schisms.

GREAT IL NEVADA.

Nevada has taken the first prize in
butter at the Worlds Fair 10 Chicago
and it has excited great deal Of
comment. The San Francisco Report re-
fers to the matter in the following com,
plimentary manner: 1--WE are pleased
that Nevada has got the first prize in
Chicago for butter. We do not know of
any prize that could have done Nevada
more good at this time. 1t will open the
eyes of a good many Americans who have
been thinking that they knew their
country pretty well. The general idea
of Nevada is that it is land of forbid.
ding mountains OF granite and alkali
deserts. and that all that it ever will pro.
duce or ever will produce is metal. The
fact is that it has vast agricultural posi-
bilities, and that even 10 its dryest re.
gions inexhaustible reservoirs of pure
water lie Immediately below the surface.
Nowhere does irrigation pay better than
in Nevada. and irrigation i, going to give
the State great future in all kinds of
husbandry. All that retards Nevada's
progress in this direction is the monopoly
Of the Southern Pacific Company. As
soon as competing transcontinental
railroad passes through Nevada, our
neighbor will wave with harvests and be
alive with herds Of fine cattle"

Monstrous Scheme of Fraud Concocted
In That City.
CHICAGO. July 13. 1693.-Dr. Meyer.
who was arrested in Detroit last night
charged with murder. is probably better
known in Chicago than in auy other city
in the Union. The last time he was ar
rested in Chicago the case was handled
by Central Station detectives. The Doc
tor has been acting as an ageat for one OF
the big life insurance companies. He
lived at that time on Fullerton avenue.
near Seminary, and practised medicine
casually.
AS an agent for the insurance company
he wrote many policies. and was making
more money than more experienced
agents. He finally concocted u scheme
whereby fraudulent policies were issued
and the premiums were paid to him. III
this way he robbed the company of large
amounts of money
When discovered he was forced 20 leave
the State. He took some household
goods with him, and the police finally
found the expressman who carted the
goods to the depot.
In this way he was traced to Denver
and placed under arrest. He was brought
back TO this city early in the year 1889
and was indicted, but not convicted on
tflal, although one of the men who al
lowed the use of his name In fraudu-
lent policy was present at the trial and
testified for the State.

THE KRUGER MYSTERY.
The Coroner's Jury Does Not Know
How His Skull Was Fractured.

At the Assembly rooms in Hoboken
last night Coroner Parslow and jury
concluded the inquest Into the death of
Frank Kruger of Guttenburg, who 1t is
charged, was killed by Henry Schultz
The tes LimonY was very contradictory
and it looks Us though an effort is being
made TO shield Schultz.
John Gerber testified that on the night
of July he lefG his barber shop at twelve
o'clock and went to his home. About
halt an hour later Mrs Brilliantine. his
employers wife. awoke him ana SAID
that there were two men QuarrelliOg on
the corner. He walked TO the corner and
saw Schultz and Kruger. They were
having wordy war. The witness saw
the back of his head striking the road
way. Kruger lay motioDless ana Schultz
walked away. The witness, with DR..
Tasker ana John Tallman picked Kruger
up. Kruger was unconscious. He reeled
from side TO side. DR., Lasker advised
| that Kruger be taken home right away,
Tallman and Brllliantine took Kruger
home.
John Tallman testified thatiwith Bril-
| liantine he took Kruger home. Kruger
seemed to be dazed but the witness tes-
Jlfied tnat he was able to talk. Arriving
at Krugerfs home the witness testified
| Jn at while Brilliautine went upstairs 70
notify Mrs. Kruger he remained with
Kruger on the sidewalk, He let go of
! him for minute and Kruger fell to th 8
| sidewalk with great force. his head str1k-
| ing the flagstone. He was not able to
| get up and breathed heavily. He was
uncop scious and they were compelled to
| carry him upstairs. The jury brought in
| verdict to the effect that Kruger came
| to his death from fractured skull
caused by fall. Whether the fall which
caused mis- deatn was due to a blow re-
ceiveG from Schultz or accidental the
| jury was unable TO decide. Schultz is
still confined in the County Jail.

causing the death by poisoning. of Gas
tave A. J. Baum of this city.
Detectives Trainer and Won Gericthen,

leave for Detroit this afternoon with the
warrants and requisitionS.s
According to Inspector Mclaughlin
and Coroner Schultze, Never and the
women who is known as his wife hav e
been for years engaged 10 the business OF
poisoning men and collecting insurances
on their lives
DIR. Meyer Is known by many aliases.
among them Henry Meyer. William
Reuter- and Hugo Mayler. The woman
who aids him in his work is known To the
police of various cities as Mrs. Maria

Baum.
Gustave A. j. Baum died at No. 800
East Thirteenth street on March &c. 1892.

death was caused by chronic dysentery.
Baum's life was insured in, the Mutual
woman arrested In Detroit last uight was
living with Baum as his wife at the time
of his sickness and death.
She nursed him and gave him medicine.
After his death she collected the full
amount of the insurance on his life and
soon afterward left the city with DR..
\ Meyer.
DR.. Gillette of the Mutual Life Insur-
| auce Company investigated the case and
decided that Baum was poisoned. He
| reported the matter to Coroner SchulfZe
and short time ago the body of Baum
| was exhumed.
| Prot Doremus and Deputy Coroner
Walsh made an autopsy and Prof. Dore-
mus analyzed the contents of the stomach
and intenstines OF the dead man, h
He found traces Of a mineral poison
known as antimony. He decided that
this was the cause of death.
The poison is subtle one, slow, but
sure in it's work aud hard to detect.
When administered in small quantities it
| causes chronic dysentery and death.

| eating the case detectives employed bv

The individual assignment bond is for

nesting of the creditors has been
called az Chancery Chambers at Two P.
NJ next Thursday.
No statement of the affairs of George
E. Watson s. Co, has been made out, and
several days will probably be required by
Assignee Turner to determine accurately
how the business stands. LAWYER Otto
Grouse who attended TO the legal part of
the assignment estimated today that the
firms outstanding accounts of money
due them was $4,000. The cash
| value of these accounts may not
be more than SO per cent. The stock on
hand, horses. wagons, ETC., are estimated
at $4,000. A conservative estimate of
the assets at actual market value Is
therefore $50. 900 or more. The Liabilities
will probably not exceed $685. 900 The
assets may turn out better than this.

tanned that she did the poisoning. while
Dr. Meyer furnished the poison.
The plan was for the woman to marry
some man ignorant of her real character,
or live with him as his wife.
She would get him TO insure his life in
her favor, paying the premiums herself
if he did not have the money;,then she
would kill him bY slow poison.
Antimony appears to lave been the
poison used in every case. and in Chicago
and Toledo the Coroners and doctors
were unable to discover what poison had
caused the death OF the victims.
The killing of Baum Is believed to be
the only case against the prisoners In this
city. They were here only a short time
and were, no doubt. afraid to operate ex-
tensively in this city.
The Mutual Life Insurance Company
is the heaviest loser by the operations of
the couple, SO far as known, though other
companies, it is said, lave been swindled.
The Mutual was the loser in some Of the
Western cases, and the similarity OF the
death of Baum to the deaths of victims
In other cities led to the investigation
and the discovery of the poison.
One reason why the couple were so long
successful in Keeping out of the hands of
the police. it Is explained, was the fact
that when victim was sick beyond hope
OF recovery the woman would call in a
AUCdl puYSlCiau VI sthuutuR, VINO WOulu
give certificate that death WAS due to
natural causes.
1t ls said to be next to impossible to
discover the presence OF the poison they
used until an autopsy is made.
INSPECTOR Mclaughlin does not expect
any trouble in getting possession OF the
prisoners and bringing them back to this
clty for trial. II is said the case against
them here Is stronger than any one OF
those in the West, and that the Nut ual
Life Insurance Company wants them
