communication with the company here.
wrots to the chief of police in Philadel-
phia, and think also to the company or
the coroner. 1t is my belief wrote to the
coroner first heard from him, and also
heard from Chief of Police Linden.
1.-THE first letter received from the cor
oner stated that the body was here and
that it must be identified. The writer said
that 1t was the body of B. T. Perry, and
unless other identification was given the
body would bear that M mo and be buried
as such. asked the widow how that was,
and she said her husband had been going
under the assumed name of Perry on ac-
count Of some trouble he had had. told
her that would have to be made clear be-
fore she could get the money.
"She showed me a number of letters she
had received from this Perry, which
seemed to prove reasonably enough that
they were from her husband, inasmuch as
they spoke of the children and Of family
matters. She was positive that the man
was her husband. / told her she would
have to prepare to come on here with me
and that had to come. Then / believe
got letter from the coroner saying we
must give positive Identification marks,
something by which we could prove that
the body was Pltezels.
Il thereupon calico Lne woman IN ana
told her she must give what Identification
marks she could that would assist the COM
pany in bringing out the identity of her
husband, and read her the coroner's let
ter She told me of these marks, and
sent the information to the coroner and
received information from him that they
were not sufficient. told the widow then
that we must come on here and identify
the body, and she said the little girl could
do that. l brought the little girl on here
and the body was identified to the COM
pany's satisfaction and to mine.
1.-THE company paid the money to me
and returned to st. Louis and got a re-
ceipt in full from my client, Mrs. Pitezel,
for the amount of money, and gave hera
receipt for my fee. The latter was q, 800.
That was the last l saw of her."
Mr.. Howe was asked what he had to say
about his connection with Holmes in the
matter.
ST do not desire to say anything about
that at this time" he replied, NOR about
several other matters with which my name
has been connected. Much will depend
upon the manner of my treatment by
President Fouse and the general nature of
the proceedings here"

June. The law permits Chinese merchants

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-There is good
reason to believe that Secretary Gresham
and Minister Kurino yesterday afternoon
added the finishing touches to the new
treaty between the United States and
Japan and that the document now awaits
only the ratification of the senate and of
the japanese government, the latter being
almost beyond question. Tho new treaty
abolishes after about five years the system
of consular court jurisdiction which has
boon so obnoxious to Japan, and also
treats of commerce and trade relations.
