SUICIDE OF A LAWYER.
Robert Jones Monaghan, of West
Chester, Blows Out the Gas in a
Philadelphia Hotel--Was Friend
OF Gov. Pattison.

Philadelphia, oct. 1.-Robert Jones
Monaghan, a prominent Lawyer of
West Chester and well known in state
Democratic circles, committed suicide
last night or early this morning at
the Ridgway house, Delaware avenue
and Market street, by inhaling illum-
mating gas. Mr.. Monaghan came to
the hotel yesterday and registered as
John F. Warren, of Wilmington, Del.
No one knew him, and after paying for
his room, he retired. He was not seen
again until his body was found about
noon today. He had placed a rubber
tube over the gas jet, and placing one
end in his mouth, turned on the deadly
fluid. He left no message to indicate
his motive in taking his life, but it is
believed that his mind was affected.
He was about As years of age and
leaves a widow and two children. He
was admitted to the Chester county
bar in 1873 and rapidly rose to a posi-
tiOn of eminence. AIe manifested a
great deal of interest in politics and
was the nominee of his party for many
important places, among them being
that of congressman. He was a friend

the state for him. He was always a
persistent worker and seldom took any
rest. This led to his mind becoming
impaired, and in 1891 he disappeared
from home, and six months later wrote
to his family from Australia. He re-
turned afterwards, but could give no
account of his movements. After be-
ing treated in a private asylum for
some time he made his escape and re-
turned home. Since then he appeared
to be improving and has devoted him
self to his profession. He had offices
in this city and for many years was
on the editorial staff of the Legal In
telligencer The police searched the
body and found cards bearing his
name. His former law partner, r. B.
Taylor, identified the remains.

NICHOLSON.

A careless word and impulsive act
often leads to much trouble. Such was
the case on Wednesday evening, when
two wheelmen from Scranton, Decker
and Millet by name, were stopping
here over night on their way to Har-
ford fair After imbibing a little of
Nicholson's best CD they sauntered
out on Main street. NJ. Werkheiser and
Ray Snyder, who were on the opposite
side of the street; exchanged some re-
mark with them The Scranton boys
asked if anything was wanting|" to
which the answer was trouble" ."
Crossing the street, Decker and Millet
proceeded to make the trouble" by
laying Werkheiser out unconscious.
When Werkheiser recovered he found
he was about seventeen dollars short
in his cash balance. Warrants were
sworn out before Justice Mckinney for
the arrest of Decker and Millet for
highway robbery. They were arrested
and placed in the lookup over night.
The prisoners were searched, but the
lost money could not be found. Thurs
day morning the prisoners arranged a
settlement, the consideration of which
was fifteen dollars, when they departed
for the Hartford fair.

Lancaster, Oct. IA fire broke out
in large four-story brick building at
Grant and Market streets, owned by

ing was occupied by Thomas A. Ander-
sons machine shop, Andrew Gut

in the cellar and shot up an elevator
to the roof. The firemen had great diff
ficulty in getting at the fire, but in an
hour had it under control.
The American House, a leading hotel.
also owned by Lebzelter, was on fire a
dozen times, but was saved, although
badly damaged. TIL new city market

Philadelphia, Oct 1.-The Press to-
morrow will say:
Negotiations are in progress among
a number of capitalists in Philadel-
phia. New York and Boston, which, If
successfully carried out, will result in
the substitution of Americana built
steamships for the large number of
foreign-built craft now engaged in the
West India fruit trade. The new ships
will be built here by the Cramps, who
are largely interested in the under
taking, and will be speedy, first class
vessels in every particular, calculated
to reduce to the lowest time the pass
age between Northern and est India
fruit ports.
Among those who are named to fig
ure in the incorporation of the new
undertaking are John Dougherty, of
Cramps; John d. Probst, A. S. Heidel-
bach, Clement S. Asbury and Jules S.
Bache, of New York. and William Bas-
sett, of Boston.

and they have a monopoly trading out

trade was a subject that is being con-

The new corporation will be known

A NEW BOULEVARD.
Ten Miles in Length, from Yates
willie TO Rear Creek.

Several enterprising and progressive
business men of Pittston are arrang-
ing to build a boulevard from Yates
willie to Bear Creek, distance of about
ten miles. and the matter will prob
ably be definitely decided in tomorrow,
when the gentlemen interested, with
their engineer, Ira L. Hartwell, of this
city, will go over the proposed route.
The greatest difficulty to contend with
at present is how to get out of Yates
vile by easy grade and at the same
time avoid crossing the network of rail-
roads which pass that point.
once over them. the grade to the
point where the new road will connect
with the old Wilkes-Barre and Easton
turnpike the grade will be uniformly
easy, and being through a very roman
tic stretch of mouptain country, the
ride will be a charming one. Joseph
II. Glennon, M. w. OBoyle, James
Fitzpatrick, Mr.. Boland and others are
interested in the scheme. 1t is esti-
mated the road, which will be similar
in construction to the present one from
this city to Bear Creek, can be COM
pleted for about $1,000 mile. From
Yatesville, Pittston will be reached
over the old Sebastopol road, about two
and one-half miles in length.-Wilkes-
