PROOF Is LACKING.

Flora Ames Darlin0's Charges Not Be-
TERED in Neto York.
NEW YORK, N. Y, April 19.-Assistant
Attorney Battle said to-day that he was
still investigating the charges made by
Mrs. Flora Ames Darling, in her belief
that her son, Edward Irving Darling, who
died in Mount Clemens, Mich, February
IA, 1894, was deliberately poisoned.
1t is not believed by the members of the
District Attorneys staff that her accusa-
tions are borne out by the facts. 1t is re-
garded as hardly probable, therefore, that
the Grand Jury will be asked to take ac-
ton in the matter until more specific
proofs are presented.

TACOMA,S SUICIDE 4 DEFA UTTER
Investigation of Paul SchuIse's accounts
Continued by Experts.

Investigation of PauL Schulze's accounts
Continued by Experts.
TACOMA, WASH, April 19.-Ever since
his death there have been rumors that the
late Paul Schulze was short in his &C
counts as general Western land agent of
the Northern Pacific road. The friends of
the dead man have been inclined to dis
credit such reports though an inyestiga-
ton of his accounts has been in progress
for three days.
1t is known that there are indications of
a shortage in the Land Office accounts and
some of Mr.. Schulze's close friends have
hesitatingly admitted that his affairs are
in a much more complicated state than
was supposed at the time of his death.
What the shortage will amount to, if
there turns out to be one, cannot yet be
told. 1t will take months to check up all
the figures in the Land Office accounts, as
it will be done in a very careful manner.
Land Commissioner Phipps has two ex-
perts, whom he brought from st. Paul,
going over the books. 1t is significant
that Mr.. Phipps has remained here per-
sonally supervising the investigation
while his brother officers have gone on
trip to Grays harbor and Portland
When seen tonight Mr.. Phipps refused
to talk on the subject.
1t was reported this evening that up to
P. NJ. discrepancy amounting to 100000
had been found in checking up the actual
land sales with the land contracts and cash
receipts. The cause of this cannot be
definitely ascertained, because the gentle
men in position to know will not talk
about it.
An investigation of the accounts of the
Yakima Investment Company, of which
Schulze was president is in progress.

the second shot followed.
In his pocket was found an invitation to
the wedding of Miss Emma Hildebrand
and Adolph Winter, at st. Paul's Church,
Thursday evening of this week.
He left no letters to show any cause for
the act. The shots were heard by John

ELEOTRIO-CAR GUARDS.
Street Railroads Must Be More Careful
of Human Life.


The Police and Health Committee of the
Board of Supervisors yesterday took up the
question of forcing the Market-street Rail-
way Company to provide safe and proper
guards for the electric cars. This question
is also pending before the Grand Jury.
Supervisor Diamond charged the rail
road company with gross carelessness, and
declared that the fatal accidents on the
electric lines lately we're nothing short of
murders. He said that the company dis
played small regard for the safety of
pedestrians, in not providing suitable
guards.
He said that at the next meeting of the
Board of Supervisors he would introduce a
resolution to compel the companies to put
guards on every car within thirty days,
and he W ill see that they use devices that
will save human life, instead of assisting at
the death, as the plank fronts now do.

a Girl Confcsscs That She Drove One
in for Every Sin Committed.


A well-dressed woman applied at the Gin
cinnati Hospital for admission Saturday
Afternoon. She presented a letter from
the mother superior of the convent, which
said the bearer. Miss Nellie Thomas, had
been employed at the convent some time
and was suffering from swollen feet. Moth

and feet wee full. of pins and needles.
Forty-one neejies were extricatei from
her body and she was not able until yester-
day to endure further operations, when ten
more were extracted, and ii is thought
others VIII be found. The physicians fear
blood poisoning viii set in, and that the
in any event may prove hopeless.
The girl protested till after the operations
that she could not tell how her feat and
limbs became iubedded with these needles,
but finally she sad she was an orphan
and that she had been at the Convent Of
the Good Shepherd for several years. Dur
ing her stay there she had done wrong.
She had done that which she knew was not
right, and for every sin she had commit
ted she had done penance by thrusting
a needle into one nj her legs. She explain
ed that each operation had caused her
agoniZing pain, and that at times II was
almost unbearable, but she felt that she
must bear the pain as recompenSe Tor
the sin committed This mode of doing
penance. she said, had covered more than
two years. Her wrongdoings had been OF
frequent occurrence, and she was unable
to estimate the number of needles she had
placed in her limbs.
Sister Superior Mary Malone stated that
the outcome of the examination OF Miss
Thomas was revelation to her. She had
been aware Of the condition of the patients
legs and feet for several months, but had
no idea of the cause. Yesterday Miss
Thomas limbs were so swollen and her
condition so serious that the mother super
Tor insisted upon her going to the hospital.
Miss Thomas is able to talk, but is very
