Wood sent Miss Bryan to Cincinnati, where Jackson turned her over to Walling, and there his information seemed to fail.
 He said that Walling took the girl away from the hotel on Wednesday and tha t was the last he saw of her But, under the spur of persistent ques- tioning, he made more admissions, such as that he left the girls valise at barber shop empty, where the police found it. The chief of police asked him to open the valise and had him describe the ghastly stains made, as Walling argued, by the discovered head of the victim. But he always viciously denied he had carried the va lise with the girls bloody head in it.
 The main facts of the time, manner and place of the girls death remain unrevealed. It reasonably clear she met her death Friday night. The story that a bungling operation caused her death is clearly disproved by the coroner's investigation, so also is the theory of death from drugs, as an analysis of the stomach showed no such condition.
 1t is clear she was either brutally beheaded or was killed by an anaes- thetic. As death from the latter cause can only be determined by the condi- tion of the blood and as decapitation depleted the veins, that question can only be settled by the testimony of a witness. The imagination staggers at the suggestion of cold blooded murder by decapitation and leaves the only plausible theory that the girl died un- der the influence of an anaesthetic and that the subsequent treatment of her body was to- hide the cause of her death.
 Scott Jackson and Alonzo M. Wall ing, the dental students arrested on a charge of murdering Pearl Bryan were today brought into the police court on the charge of murder.
 Both pleaded not guilty and were held in S5,00O bail, which will be given in short time.
 A hypodermic syringe with which Walling and Jackson gave the girl the injection to kill her has been found ir Jackson's room, together with a bot tie containing a fluid, the nature ot which is not vet determined.

PEARL BRYAN'S MURDER /.
A GhastIy Story Is De-
 veloping.
1hose Arrested Still Deny Active Participation in the Girls
 Murder.

CINCINNATI, Feb. 7.-All day the city has been nervously excited over the developments of the now famous story of the mysterious death of Pearl Bryan, the Greencastle, Ind, farmers daughter.
 What is called the confession of two of the young men implicated as her murderers is only strange sort of haf-defant wincing under the semi torture of police examination, in which each culprit appears to be try ing to shield himself as an accidental accomplice to make the other the real criminal.
 So far it is known that Pearl Bryan was about to become a mother and, de- sirous of hiding her shame, left Green castle, Ind. Tuesday, January IS, ostensibly to visit Mrs. Fisher in h. dianapolis; that William Wood saw her to the train; that she came direct ly to Cincinnati; tried to see Scott Jackson at dental college that night, but could not do that, so she registered at the Indian house as Mabel Stan ley, city," and was assigned to a room.
 After that the stories about her do not agree. Also that Walling, room mate of Scott Jackson, both of whom were arrested last night charged with murder, says that Jackson saw Miss Bryan on Wednesday; that he went about the city with her and finally, on Friday, completed the crime of mur- der, cutting off the girls head and bringing it to Cincinnati in her own valise, which he kept until Monday, when he cast the head into a sewer and threw her clothing into the Ohio river.
 On the other hand, Jackson, in a stolid, half-stupid and always obsti- nately argumentative manner, placed the entire burden on Walling. Ac- cording to his story, the lamentable condition of Miss Bryan was attrib. uted to William Wood of Greencastie who applied to Jackson to help hin cover up the girls shame and his ow1 participation in the affair." Wood die this, Jackson says, because he Uack son) was dental student and was sup posed to have access to means for pro ducing abortion.
 Jackson denied having any suc1 knowledge, but recommended Mailing his roommate, who had told him how he had assisted two girls from Hamil ton, Ohio, near his home. Thereupo1

NEW YORK, Feb. 7.-The Evening Post publishes an interview with Pres ident Cleveland regarding. the bond issue, in which he says.
 From such informatidN a1 comes to me from various private sources, I am convinced that more small holdings of gold will be drawn into the treasury by the present arrangement than ap- pears on the surface The small coun- try banks, for instance, which are buy ing bonds for their customers, have made their bids through their New York and Boston correspondents and this gives the loan the appearance of having been taken up by fbig financial institutions at money centers, al though as matter of fact not little of it will ultimately come from small investors"

Il NEVADA DECISION.

The chief justice of the SUI
preme court of Nevada, in the
course of some very sensible re-
marks on the evils of silver
recommendation, made use of the
following language:
while doutless some Repub-
licans are in favor of a gold
standard, probably about the
SAFE number as there were of
the radical free silverites, the
party is not. The great mass of
the party is in favor of the only
kind of bimetallism that is poss
ible, and that is it's establish
ment by the leading commercial
nations Of the world. If that
cannot be brought about then
bimetallism is impossible. for
not one country can go it alone,
although it can bring itself to a
silver basis, drive gold out of
circulation, and bring untold
misery upon itself. AS sure as
the sun rises that would be the
result of this country alone pro-
viding for the free and unlimit-
ed coinage of silver at the ratio
of 16 to l."

A great many people that will
vote on the money question in
November do not understand
what is meant by "free silver"
and not a few have an idea that
in some way silver is to be free
to everybody. A citizen that has
a notion that he is going to get
silver or any other valuable thing
without working for it has a
mind too simple to receive an ex
PLANTATION; he will have to be
neglected. But there may be
men of average intelligence who
do not know that 'sfree silver"
simply means unlimited coinage
of silver. It means that the
owners of uncoined silver may
carry it to the minis and there,
on the payment of a slight charge
for mintage, have it coined into
legal tender dollars, and that
there shall be no limit to this
privilege. AS the standard sill
yer dollar is nine-tenths fine, and
weighs 4124 grains, for every
3714 grains of silver and Ali
grains of copper, used for alloy.
the owners of bullion will receive
a coin stamped one dollar, such
as now circulates at 100 cents,
With silver quoted as it IS at 684
cents an ounce, of 480 grains,
3714 grains, the amount of silver
in one dollar, are worth trifle
less than So cents. Under free
coinage silver money is free"
only to mine owners, who for a
nominal charge may convert
their silver bullion into coin
bearing the government stamp.
This gives the mine owner a!

1t is Being Carefully Nursed at the
Palmer House.
CHICAGO, July FL. P Mullin and
John WEIGH, the delegates from Ore
gon, have opened headquarters at the
Palmer house and are grooming Hon.
Sylvester Pennoyer as a compromise
candidate. They are handing out cards
with a picture Of Pennoyer on one side
and his record on the other. The rec
crd shows that he has always been
successful before the people of Oregon,
and While the state has always gone
Republican, Pennoyer. as a Democrat
ic candidate for governor, has always
carried it. His latest success was in
being elecsed mayor of Portland in a
very holly contested race He is also
given credit of being very strong
stafes-rights man.
At present Mullin and WEIGH are
combining their efforts to working upon
the western delegates as they arrive
and are well satisfied with their sue
cess. They say that in case the Demo-
Gratis should nominate Pennoyer there
would not be the least question as to
his being endorsed by the Populists
and silver men. They say that the idea
of a Pacific coast candidate is popular
and that in going west they should not
count distance. Pennoyer has always
been elected as a Democrat, but he
repudiated his party as represented by
Cleveland and was inclined to cast his
lot with the Populists of Oregon.
