There were developed today some new
facts in the case Of Aaron Brunn, who was
drowned off Long Bridge last Monday,
and the policepow suspect thateithe er BTunn
was short ia his accounts, or that large
sum OF money was taken from his clothes
after the body was recovered.
The matter was brought to the attention
of Inspector Hollinberger by Mr.. Nathan
Brunn, brother of the dea man, who turned
over a deposit slip for S41O in the hand
writing of the latter, with the statement
that the money had not been deposited
nor had il been foun Il upon the body
The slip was found by Undertaken Lee,
who IN preparing the body for burial found
in one of the pockets bank book Gun
tanning tie deposit slip upon the National
Bank Of Washington and q check for
So. so.
The check was entered upon the stub,
as was also $47O in cash, but there was
no trace Of the latter. The whole was
turned over to the brothers, who went TO
the bank and there found that the money
had never been deposited.
He also found out that Just before his
brothers death there had been paid him
Sc in bills, which he placed in his pock-
cts. but which were not found when ii was
recovered.
The detectives are ngaged in going over
Brunn's looks to discover the shortage, if
there is any, and there should not be, an

A postmotem examination wa made this
E. Springmann, who SO sadly fell victim
to hydrophobia.
This is probably the first case of an
autopsy In Washington of a typical case of
hydropIobia, and the result viii be looked
for with much interest by the scien tifc
people of the city. The result will not be
known until the disease germs have been
cultivated and experimented with
There has always existed in the minds
OF medical men grave doubt as to the
actual existence or tear OF water and wind
as is popularity thought TO be the case in
hJ dropneumo- phoDia fear of water and
air-aud the Investigation In this case VIII
be made with a special view to ascertaining
IL there is any reason for the existence OF
such fear.
The medulia oblongata, a Part of the
spinal column and the seat Of the dis
ease, has Deen taken from the deceased
for the health office, and the cultivation
of the erins VIII be made from that por-
ton OF tile spinal column.
The autopsy was not had until after
the injection of the emhalming fluid, and
it is thought possible that this might pro-
duce a negative result by the ingredients
of the en.balming fluid counteracting the
poison.
The vast amount of interest taken in
this case is shown by the number of
physicians who were present for the post
mortem. 1t was under the direction of
Acting Coroner Glazebrook and was par
ticipated in by Drs. II. H. Barker, w. G,
WOODWARD J. T. Winters, V. A Novgaard
and NJ. F. Thompson.
Shortly after the autopsy, at O'Clock,
the funeral services Were held at tn,
family residence, No. 401 South Capjtol
street The house was crowded with
friends OF the family, and the services
OF the Catholic Church were conducted by
Rev. Father o'Brien, OF ST. Peters Church.
The white casket in which reposed the
remains OF the deceased was almost hidden
from view beneath the beautiful flowers
W hich had been sent by sympathetic friends
as an evidence of their confidence with the
afflicted family.
Affer TIE services at the house the re-
mains were taken direct to Congressional
Cemetery, where the interment was made
The deceased was borne to his last rest
ing place by six OF his Young friends, three
OF whom were with him when he as bit
ten. They were Louis Diggins, James J.
Gray, Arthur Sprecht, Richare @ uinn, lie
Roy Paine and Walter Robinson.
lie Roy Paine, who was bitten by the
same dog which caused the q eat h OF Young
Springmann, stated yesterday tha. he
intended TO go to Baltimore for treat
ment.
That owners Of dogs at the present time
should be exceedingly careful with them
is forcibly brought TO mind when IL is
known that DR.. Greenfel, Of No. l4o7
4 street, who is considered an authority on
such subjects, stated in a conversation
yesterday that he vas OF the opinion that
four-fifths of the dogs in Washington are
now suffering with what is known az
dumb rabies" and the symptoms of the
same are never shown until after some
person has been bitten.
