Phillips, Of Durham, one Of the best known
Reformed clergymen in Pennsy ISSnia,
died yesterday Of blood poisoning at st.
Luke's hospital, aged 81 years. When
visiting a neighbours house six weeks ago,
he remained for dinner. He was seated on
the porch, chatting with several young
ladies, when the call for dinner came. He
was slow in responding and one of the
ladies, Miss Cope, took a stickpin from
her dress, intending to prick him in the
leg withfit slightly, AS she struck at him
he raised his leg and the pin went through
the flesh to the bone. After a dangerous
illness of two weeks he had his leg ampu-
tated in the hope of saving his life. This
was on July 6, but since then he has
grown gradually worse, death resulting
from shock.

CHICAGO, July 1l.-At the request OF
States Attorney Kern Judge Tuthill has
issued a call for a special grand jury, which
is to investigate charges Of boodlingi in the
city council. The information was given
to States Attorney Kern by H. H. Kohl
saat, of this city, and is said to be most
conclusive in its nature. The men against
whom the evidence will be submitted are
Aldermen Finckler, of the Twenty-sixth
ward, and Charles Martin, of the Sixth.
The charge will be that they attempted to
procure brides in connection with an ordi.
nance introduced some time since into the
city council providing that the citizens OF
Chicago should be given pure ice.
