WHEELING, w VA an.AY MORNING, FEBRUARY 10, 1896

c.nnati. She saw Wood after hiatt. He
came here the following Friday and
Miss HollingswOrth was at the depot.
Both of them being acquainted with
Miss Bryan they talked about her trOu-
BILE. Wood was on his way to South
Bend, and left shortly after his arrival
here.
Miss Hollingsworth's manner Of tell
ing her story convinced the officers that
she was
HOLDING SOMETHING BACK.
She was subjected TO a most rigid eX-
animation, and on several occasions she
lost her temper. Sne said she had not
heard of the murder until two days ago.
She had no idea that it would turn out
SO badly.
'I am positive that Pearl was not
murdered" she said.
"Well, how do you know?"
81 know" replied Jhe girl, "but do
not propose to tell"
why nOt?"
Simply because 1 do not intend to
incr.minate myself. There was an oc-
currence between Jackson, Pearl Bryan
and myself that wee l 10 tell Of it
would clear up the mystery surrounding
her DEATH
Why don't you tell it and set the
minds of her folks at rest?"
For this reason. 1t would incrimin-
ate me. However, l do not propose
TO SEE THOSE BOYS HANG,
and when the last hope is gone l will
tell what | know in order to save their
necks. They did not kill Pearl"
How do you know they did not kill
herr"
Because she died by her own hand.
I have a theory. Pearl took the med
icine herself. She was in Jackson 5
room at the time. 1t had different
effect from what she expected and she
grew so bad that Jackson saw she was
going 10 die. He knew that it would
never do to have her die in the house,
so he secured a hack and assisted by
Walling. took her across the river. She
may have died on the way, or may have
been dead before they got her out OF
the room, and their object in taking
her there was to hide the crime. When
near Fort Thomas they cut off her head
and disposed of it to avoid identitica-
ton. See if it don't come out that
way"
Miss Hollingsworth will probably be
taken to Cincinnati tomorrow.
Later tonight Miss HCll,ngsworth
told the police all she knew. She said
she bought for Pearl Bryan three kinds
of drugs here and instructed her 10 buy
another drug after she reached Cnc!n-
natl. but to be careful Of it, as it was
deadly poison and would kill her If not
used correctly. Misc Holl.ngsworth
SAYS that Pearl Bryan then said to her:
81 will go to Cincinnati and take the
stuff, and if it kills me, l will be near
Jackson. and he will have to swing for
it," Miss HOllingsworth further says
that Pearl was very bitter towards
jackson, who was responsible for her
condition.

Washington. February 9.-The first
business of Importance before the Sen
ate on Monday, probably, will be the
vote on Senator Quay's resolution for
the re-commitment of the revenue tariff
bill to the Committee on Finance.
Senator Smith, of New Jersey, is an
nounced to make q speech on the Mon
roe doctrine on Monday, and Senator
Blanchard on the same subject on Tues
day.
The HansbrOugh resolution in regard
to the distribution of seed by the Agll-
cultural Department will by agree
ment be taken up early in the week,
and it is the purpose of che Committee
on Appropriations TO get
THE APPROPRIATION BILLS

these bills have already been reported

of the week will be given up to the ap-
preparation bills. The Republicans eX-
pect to get up the question OF the Senae
reorganization towards the latter part
Of the week. and if they succeed this viii
consume considerable time.
The interest in
THE QUAY RESOLUTION
is enhanced by the knowledge that tine

cans expect TO poll their full vote OF
A members for re-cOmmittal, and they
they are not without hope that they
may get a vote or TWO from the Demo
Gratis. who say they VIII have a full
Democratic and Populist vote against
thls proposition. If they succeed n de-
feating the resolution. the effect will be
to place the silver substitute for the
tariff bill before the Senate, but 1t IS
not expected that it VIII be taken up
Immediately. Senators incline to the
belief that in no event can the tariff
silver bill be disposed Of within less
than a months time.
THE GENERAL DEBATE
on the free coinage substitute for the
bond bill which was discussed day and
night foc four days in the House last
week, Will close tomorrow. 1t is the
general expectation that vote will be
reached some time on Tuesday. As 10
