The coroner's Jury Could Not Find the
Corpse Of an Alleged Suicide.
Reference was made in The Tribune
Of Thursday to the supposed suicide OF
a young Polish woman whose body was
found in the river below Plymouth.
The remains were taken from the water
and removed to the establishment of q
Plymouth undertaken. A coroners
jury was summoned, but when that
body proceeded to view the corpse they
could not find 1t. It had been removed
to Nanticoke. as was supposed, for In
terment in the cemetery of the poor dis
trict at Retreat. 1t ~ alleged that IT
was not inferred there but was for
warded to some medical college. 1t has
not been positively established that
this was a case of suicide The unfor-
tunate young woman was engaged to
be married to q young Polander who
suddenly disappeared the day before
the womans death. There are those
who express the opinion that the girl
may have been murdered and the body
thrown into the river. This Is only sur
mise as yet, but under the circum-
stances an investigation would seem to
be necessary.
The case is in the hands OF County
Detective Eckert,- who will endeavor
to trace the body and ascertain what
disposition has been made OF 1t. The
county detective states that this is not
the first instance when undue haste has
been made TO dispose OF the remains OF
Polanders who came to their death un-
Der circumstances that called for inves-
tigation. The fact that the body OF
this woman was found floating on the
surface OF the water within a few
hours after she had been seen alive
arouses the suspicion that she did not
come 20 her death by drowning. as.
under such circumstances, the body
would have sunk.

THE HENDRICKS TRIAL.
AZ Last au Alibi for tho Mnn Who Is ON
Trial

1
Yesterday. for the first time during
the twelve days trial Of Hendricks
has been I'm progress, the defense
turned their attention exclusively to
the prisoner at the bar and made an
attempt TO establish an allbi. First
some OF Hendricks relatives were put
on the stand. They testified that Hen
bricks was In Wilkes Barre during the
day preceding the murder but that
he was I'M Avoca several hours before
and up to the exact hour when the
crime was committed. These witnesses
completely oontradioted the testimony
OF Ray Boyer. Hendricks himself was
placed on the stand and gave. In very
elaborate detail. his movements on the
day and che evening Of the murder Of
Barney Reick. He denied In toto the
evidence Of Ray Boyer and the detec-
tives that he had made confessions to
them admitting his completely In the
murder. He declared that this murder
had not been alluded to in any OF his
conversations with the detectives. and
| also that he knew at the time that
Simpson andKeighron were detectives.
He also said Warden Jones and one OF
the watchmen at the Jail had informed
him that Simpson was q detective.
Some OF the witnesses examined yes
terday became badly ''rNttked" under
the severe cross-eXamination by Attor-
ney Lenahan. who never fails to make
witnesses shown any weakness they
may be possessed Of. There Is not
much doubt In the mind Of any one who
has been in attendance on the trial THAI

carefully coached" before they went
on the stand. 1t IS also apparent that
there has been an extraordinary
amount OF perjury committed on one
side or the other. 10 which side the
jury will credit the PERJURY will bs
shown when the verdict comes in.
The case will not end today, and the
Jurors viii therefore be compelled to
spend a second Sunday in seclusion.
1t Is not probable that the Judge will
charge the Jury before Monday. and a
verdict Is scarcely to be expected be-
fore next Wednesday.
AS has already been stated in these
columns. the defense has from the first
depended solely on establishing an alibi
for each of the four defendants. This
hetS hoW tCCh apaAc, ehb Ah %
that does infinite credit to the three
young lawyer'O'Boyle, MCGOWAN and
Shea-who undertook the defense. For
the prosecution John T. Lenahan has
fought the battle alone and he certain
ly has done what lay In his power to
make out a case against the accused.
1t has been from first to last hard
case to handle. No one saw the crime
committed, and the prosecution were
compelled to depend almost wholly on
the evidence of a notoriously disreput-
able woman and several detectives for
conviction. The womans evidence
may be worthless. and unfortunately
there is nearly always an unreasonable
prejudice against professional detec-
tives.
There is not now much doubt that all
four Of the accused will go free
Whether guilty or innocent they alone |
know to a certainty.
