NOT SUICIDE.

The coroner's inquest to inquire into
the cause of the death of Isadore L.
Welsh was held yesterday morning.
The INJURY developed few facts except
such as were published in yesterdays
Herald. Mr.. Fennef. an acquaintance
of Welsh's from Cheyenne. and who
had been with Welsh a good deal for
several days past, could throw no light
on the matter. Welsh had seemed de-
spondent and had worried good deal
over his child, given into the custody
of the divorced wife This testimony
was given unofficially, as he was not
summoned as a witness.
Jones. the bell boy, was probably
the last person to see Welsh alive. He
brought pitcher of water to him soon
after the man went to his room.
The jury, after taking into consider
alton all the evidence obtainable, rem
dered verdict that the man came to
his death from an overdose of lauda-
mum, administered by his own hand.
but not with suicidal intent
1t is expected that the remains Of
the late Isadore l.. Welsh will be
shipped to New York for interment.
and the undertaken is preparing the
body with that end in view.

MURDERER CoUGHLIN.
To be Executed in Rich County on
Tuesday, the 18th of December.

LOGAN, Oct. 2S.-Information was
given out today by Judge Hart that
Tuesday, Dec. Is next, will be the day
set for the execution of Patrick Cough
lin for murder, and that he will be
taken to Rich county (where the crime
was committed and where all the bust
ness pertaining to the execution must
be transaoted), at the opening of the
next regular term of court in that
county, which is Monday, Dec. Z. The
September term of court for Rich
county had adjourned before the SUI
preme court of thu United States
passed upon this case, denying the de-
PENDANT new trial, So that the terms
of court in Rich county either had to
be changed, and a special term of court
called at the expense of the state, or
the matter left to come up at the reg
ular term in December.
In view of the conditions prevailing,
it was decided to let the matter of fix
ing the time go to the regular term in
December, and then have the execu-
ton take place a short time later, CIV
ing ghe defendant and his counsel no.
tice now of what the arrangements
would be and the exact day when the
execution would take place.

NEW YORK, Oct. ga Sun special
from Washington says: Both the sec
rotary of war and the secretary Of the
navy will urge in their annual reports
to the president the expenditure OF
large sums of money during the next
fiscal year to better protect the nation
from foreign attack
Secretary Herbert will urge the
building of additional battleships and
torpedo boats. and will outline a plan
for charging the navy until it has at
least 20 battleships and 20 torpedo
boats. He will contend that until that
number has been provided no further
additions to the cruisers should be
made.
The authorities of the department
maintain that so far no better type OF
battleship has been presented than the
Indiana and Massachusetts class, and
thus for obvious reasons the navy will
be stronger when most of it's battle
ships are of the same type, speed and
size. Battleships are regarded by the
naval experts as the backbone and
mainstay of the navy, and the more
the country has of them the safer IL
will be from attack.
Secretary Lamont has already indi-
Gated that the next congress should
appropriate at least $4,000, 600 to con-
tinue the project now being carried
out for coast defences. The secretary
will also urge legislation TO establish
the three-battalion formation. which
has been adopted by the armies Of
every other civilized nation Last
year the secretary recommended, as
necessary to effect the change, the re-
peal of the limit of $4,000 men and
the return to the limit fixed by the
act ef July Is, 1870. Congressional ap-
prevail of these two propositions would
restore to the effective force of the
army about 1000 enlisted men and
bring the actual strength up to the
nominal strength prescribed by law
IL would increase the efficiency of
the army 20 per cent, in numbers about
1872 per cent, and in cost of main
tenance only about 6 per cent.
Another interesting subject which ne
will refer to is staff reorganization-
He will recommend, as he did last
year, that the existing law be so moui-
fed as to fix the term of Office of the
head of certain staff corps at g, speci~
fed number of years, and that at the
expiration of such period the chief of
such department, unless reappointed.
shall resume his duties in his actual
grade. He will further advise that the
law on the subject be amended so as
to permit of the selection of heads OF
staff corps from officers of the line.
The secretary will also advise
slight reduction in the pay corps of the
army. He is of the opinion that it is
practicable to dispense with two Of
ficers of the grade of major.

CHICAGO, Oct. 2s.-Business in
wheat was comparatively narrow to-
day. Much of the energy which had
been an attribute of the trading for
more than a month has disappeared,
and the market is getting into some
thing of a rut. Prices early recovered
several fractions from yesterday, an
advance Of ed at Liverpool affording
strength.
The near approach of election has a
tendency to curtail speculative trans
actions.
Receipts in the northwest were again
heavy at l,2OS cars against 800 last
Wednesday and 1,22S a year ago. Chi
cago had 20T cars and inspected out
81 ,537 bushels. Closing continental
cables were all lower. Export clear
ances were light at i5S,400 bushels. In
the last hour. trading showed more
animation than at any previous period
of the session, easy money rates hav-
ing the effect OF causing the bulls to
exhibit more courage.
December wneal opened from 90 to
69i4, advanced TO IN, closing at 1890
71-2B@214 higher than yesterday.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow, 146
cars. No. 2 red spot wheat ranged
nominally from 20 to 72% and closed
at about IFS to 7215.
Oats-Little attraction TO traders
We're afforded by oats. The market
was even quieter than elrher 81 .--e
others and the tone was derived from
them. Receipts were 325 cars and 1000
bushels were taken from stock. May
oats closed 1s@A higher than yester-
day. Estimated receipts for tomorrow
800 cars.
Provisions-A slow and weak hog
market had its natural effect on
product. Holders were discouraged
and sold their property. The prospect
of restricted speculative demand
during the balance Of the week were
not calculated to produce a bullish
feeling. The very strong tone of wheat
revived the dropping feeling of product
towards the close. January pork closed
21k lower ana January lard and ribs
each unchanged. Closing prices:
Wheat-October. $50; December, 70B
OH; May, 1855 @75%.
Corn-October, 2314q23Ss; December,
24Ss@24%; May. 2s14 @2S3s.
Oats-October, 171a; December, 1Sk q
1885; May. 211s@215s.
Pork-December, $50; January, $50.
Lard-December, 4.30; January, 4.50.
Ribs-December, s62ls; January,
3S71s.

Mercur Political Notes.

MERCUR. Oct. PA Democratic
meeting was held on Lion Hill on Mon
day evening, Frank Boyle furnishing
his hall for the occasion. About 30
miners were on hand, and judging by
the enthusiasm the Democratic ticket
will get the most of their votes.
N 3. Dresser was the first speaker,
and he devoted himself to the parallel
issues of the Democratic and Repub-
lican platforms, in relation to trusts,
monopolies, labor troubles, ETC., show
ing that free silver Republicans did not
go far enough in their demands.
W. G. Nebelzer showed up the incon-
sistency of voting for Bryan and Re
publican congress. He also stated his
position on number of issues of in
terest to miners, including the eight

be criticism put upon a churchman for
entering into a political controversy, and
l have spoken of that IN the letter. 1 do
not believe in minister entering into
mere politics, as such. but there are times
when questions rise above that and be-
come matters of patriotism and morality,
and we have right to speak then as citi-
zens. What 1 would say in an Interview

wheat Abroad.

LONDON. Oct. 2S.-Today's continent
tai wheat markets were as follows:
Berlin wheat opened easier at de-
cline of marks. under the influence
of American decline, and large offer
ings. There were few buyers. Later
in the day the market became firmer.
but on the curb, after the closing of
the bourse, it relapsed upon favorable
news from London and closed at Il
below the official rates.
Buda-Pest.-The market was almost
at a standstill today.
Antwerp.-The market was virtually
closed today and buyers have gone to
the Brussels weekly market, where
there is slow consumers demand.
After a week of progress the mar
ket closed distinctly steadier.
Paris.-Wheat and flour opened
weak, but the shorts covering the mar
ket closed firmer, especially for the
current month.
Hamburg.-The market was dull and
weak.
Amsterdam-Ma fat The eautan
Russia markets were easier. Wheat
was offered at Cd decline without at
tracing any buyers.
The Danubian markets were uuieter,
the excitement having abated Red
wheats are still nominally IS above the
London parity. There is a sharp drop
in freights.
