PHILADELPHIA Mint Site.

The selection of a site for the United
States mint at Philadelphia seems to be
still an open question. Today Mr.. Andrew
Wheeler. representing the 9Th and Tasker
streets property, had an interview with
Secretary Carlisle and Mr. Preston, director
of the mint. This site contains 100000
square feet, for which 100000 is asked
Another gentleman from Philadelphia was
also at the department and requested the
Secretary to look at a piece Of ground whose
owners he represented He requested that
the location of the property be not made
public for the present and stated that If the
Secretary found on inspection that the
property would answer the purposes of the
government he would then fix a price

Loss OF THE BEAR.
Mysterious Lack OF Conarmatory p..-
patches.

There is some mystery about the re-
ported loss OF the Bear. No Official infer
nation has been received at either the
Navy or Treasury Department on the sub
1ect and IL II was reported in San Fran
cisco last night. as alleged. Il would have
been the duty OF the officials to send word
to Washington at once. Capt. Shepard OF
the Treasury Department this afternoon
sent a telegram of inquiry to Capt Hooper
the matter.
No reply had been received up 70 8
O'clock
The vague1ess OF the report and its total
lack OF official verihcation inspires the hope
at the Treasury Department that the Bear
may not have been lost after all.

THE GLICK SUICIDE.

A Jury Fails to Fix Upon = Cause for the
Act
Special to EVENING HERALD.
GIRARDvILLE, May l5-An inquiry by
deputy coroner and jury Of six citizens
decided last night that ex-Postmaster
Joseph NJ. Click of this place met his
death by pistol shot wound inflicted by
his own hand but failed to determine a
cause for the deed.
The inquest was not an extended one
and but few witnesses examined, they
being Jacob Portz the man who found
the body in the stable the physician who
made an examination of the body, and
one OF two members of the family, who
were examined with view TO learning
the recent temperament and conduct of
the deceased Little satisfaction was
CLEANED from this source and when the
time came Tor the jury 10 make up its
verdict il could only say that the de
ceased "came to his death by his own
hand for some reason unknown to the
jury"
A member of his family stated after
the inquest that Mr.. Click was very reti-
cent concerning his affairs. He seldom
spoke Of his business relations in the
home circle and never complained when
i'll but for several days before the suicide
it was suspected he was not feeling well
and that the recent business complica-
tions which brought on the suit in con
nection with the Palace Theatre Com
pany seemed to worry him. This was the
only cause the family could think of for
the act, and yet the opinion was not based
upon any complaint the deceased had
made
The funeral of Mr. Click will take
place at one o'clock on Thursday and in.
terment will be made in the Odd Fellows
cemetery at Girardville.

Special to the HERALD.
MAHANoY CITY, May 15.-Two young
men giving their names as Henry Folk
and William Morris, and their homes as
Easton, Pa, were arrested by Detective

seven o'clock this morning, on suspicion
of being Homer Sarvis and John O'Neill,
wanted for the murder of Frank Hender-
son, n Newburg, n. Y, on May 2, and for
burglarizing his store.
The suspects are two well built young
fellows of "a years and claim to be here
in search of employment. The officer
spotted them soon after they landed in
town last night and kept close tab on
their movements ever since.
They fit the description of the murderers
in many respects but differed in others.
The officers suspicious of their indentity
was strengthened this morning when in
formed by hotel-keeper Grim that they
had held mutfled conversation in their
room all night, seemed uneasy and were
making preparations for an early depar-
ture from town this morning.
The description Of O'Neill called for a
staggering manner and the way Folk
rolled into Harris hotel and asked for
refreshments, last evening, set the detec-
tive's hair on end. Say partner, got any
thing to eat here ?" "Yes. sir" meekiy
responded Abe Wire. "Well give us a

the bartender complied with alacrity.
The young men did not seem to be of
the dead tough" order either, and were
quite docile and gentlemanlv as they
greeted the officers through the iron bars
this morning, They will remain in the
lookup until the Newburg authorities
are heard from.
