COroner's Jury Condemns Gentry.
+ PHILADELPHIA, April 12.-Deputy
Coroner Dugan at noon today began
his official inquiry into the death of
Margaret Winifred Drysdale (Madge
York;, theyoung actress who was shot
and killed by Actor James B. Gentry
on the night of Feb. II last.
The delay in the holding of the in
quest was caused by Gentry's illness.
Under the advice of his counsel, Gentry
did not testify, and, after the hearing
of a number of other witnesses, whose
testimony was unimportant, the jury
rendered this verdict: 1.-The jury find
that Margaret w. Drysdale came to
her death by gunshot wounds received
at the hands of James B. Gentry"

DEALT DEATH WITH A BRICK.
Mysterious Assault on n Chicago
Cattle Dealer

CHICAGO, April 12.-E r. Hunter,
wealthy cattle dealer at the Union
stock yards, was the victim of an as
sault while sitting in his office tonight,
which will probably result in his death.
The cause of the assault is a mystery
and the asSailant is unknown. Hunter
was alone in his office, and the first
known of the affair was when he came
staggering out of his office covered
with blood, and said to the janitor of
the building, who met him in the hall:
Did you see him?' After asking the
question Hunter fell to the floor un-
conscious, and is now lying at the
point of death in his room. His as
sailant dealt him blow with a brick
which made a fearful wound on the
temple, fracturing the skull. Nobody
saw the assailant enter or leave the
building. Hunter had no enemies as
far as known, and he had with him
when assaulted a gold watch and a
large sum of money, and no attempt
was made to take them away from
him.

TOO MUCH FOR. THE ARTHUR
Official Secrecy Regarding the Big
Battieship's Trip Is Deceiv-
ing No One.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 12.-"The
Monterey is undoubtedly going to
Corinto, Nicaragua, and not Cal
lao," said Mr.. Hibbett, surgeon of
the Bennington, now at Mare ISL
and. mo matter what the dis
patches may say, we, in the navy,
feel sure that she is going down
the coast to meet the Royal Arthur,
the large English cruiser, which is
headed that way. The Royal Ar
thur is the best of her class. At
long range she would be no match
for the Monterey, but she might
make it interesting for her at close
quarters. The Monterey could not
be handled as quickly as the En-
glishman, and at short range she
might suffer from torpedoes. Out
at sea, however, the Royal Arthur
would be no match for the Monte
rey. The big guns would make no
impression on the Monterey, and
those of the latter would probably
lift the Englishman out of the
water. In the navy out here there
is no such feeling that the Monte
rey could not cope with the Royal
. Arthur

SAN DIEGO. April 12.-The coast
defense vessel Monterey departed
from here with more secrecy than is
usually the case when a vessel
leaves ON a leisure cruise.
The fact that Lieut.. Baker, of
Gen. McCook's staff, arrived in
haste from Denver, and is believed
to have embarked on the Monterey.
adds to the mystery of her destina-
ton. A hint was dropped by one
OF the officers before sailing that the
vessel was going to Corinto, and
that the authorities at Washington
INDUCED in little fiction regarding
cruise to Callao to keep inquisi-
tive people off the scent.
The sudden illness of Surgeon
Whiting assumed so grave an as
peet that strong attempt was made
to secure another officer in his stead
FOR the cruise, but owing to the
short stay Of the Monterey it was
impossible, and he sailed with his
ship.

for the deed. We are both going to

MR.. LOUIS FRANK,
1884 Cherokee street,
MISS KATE KOLB.
Frank was a carpenter and Miss
Kolb was a country girl. They have
been engaged for over year. Ex-
animation revealed that both had
been shot just above the heart.
There was trace of poison on the lips
of both. They had taken no chance
of surviving. After swallowing the
poison they had gashed their throats
with the sharp edge of a clasp knife,
and Frank finished by firing a bull
let into the girls breast, and ended
his own life in the same manner.
Kate Kolb lived at 1887 Cherokee
street. She and Frank left home
together last Wednesday. The girl
left a note saying that they were
going to kill themselves, and ascrib-
ing love as the cause.

tent that the greater portion of the peo-

the price of dressed beef is legitimate
and caused by the advance in cattle.
They claim they have been working
at disadvantage during the past six
months, as the price of cattle has ad-
vanced more rapidly than meat Texas
had good corn crop but the prices
have been so low during the two pre-
vious years that it has not been a
profitable business to ranch owners,
and they have turned their attention
to raising other things, making the
supply this year short
CHICAGO, April 12.-Referring to the
proposed investigation of Secretary
Morton, P. D. Armour said today:
''The shortage in cattle supplies at the
four principle Western markets thus
far this year amounts to nearly 27O, 900
head, compared with a year ago. The
shortage in pounds of dressed beef
since the first of the year figures out
about 175,0O0,000 or nearly 100000
pounds per day. At the same time, the
price of live cattle has advanced about
two cents per pound"
