AN INTERESTING SUIT
Against the Ohio River Railroad on Trial
at Parkersburg.

Special to the Register.
ParkerSburg, w. Va, December o.
A very interesting suit for damages is
now on trial in the Circuit Court be-
fore Judge Louis n. TavenneT, and the
trial will be lengthy one. 1t is the
case of j. F. Mock vs. the Ohio River
Railroad Company, and the plaintiff
asks $4,000 damages.
The declaration alleges that Mr..
Mock was superintendent of bridges and
buildings on the 0. r. R. r. in and prior
to 1890, and that he was sent from here
to Wheeling with party of B. & o.
officials in a special train composed of
B. & Q. and 0. r. cars on June 6, 1890,
and that an accident occurred at Clar-
ington, by which the car which he &C.
cupied was thrown over a thirty-foot
embankmeIt, whereby he received ser
ious injuries, his skull being crushed
and ribs broken; that Or account of
the injury to his head he was rendered
insane and remained in that condition
until 1896, when experts removed a
portion of his skull, relieving the pres
sure on the brain which caused insani-
ty, but that he has been left physical
wreck in consequence.

A HOT REPORT.
Made by a United States Grand Jury
at Birmingham, Ala..-StraW Bonds
and Perjury Among the Things
Objected TO.

Birmingham, Ala, December 5.-The
United States Court grand jury, just
prior to its final adjournment yester-
day, rendered its report. United
States commissioners were severely
censured for allowing defendants in
many cases to give straw bonds" ac-
oepting as sureties persons whose IL
responsibility is notorious" The laws
for the suppression of Illicit distilling
and sale Of liquor were severely criti
cized, being characterized as cumber-
some, extravagant, ineffective, and
dangerous, and designed chiefly for Sc
curing fees to officials, witnesses and
informers.
The report continuing, says the
grand jury found great disregard for
the sacred nature of an oath among
informers and witnesses. 1t says that
action against such persons for per-
jury is the only redress, and that it
was through such action that the
grand jury was made acquainted with
these outrages."
Judge Boardman, in replying to the
report, said that he recognized the ex-
istence of such practices, which were
greatly to be deplored, and that he
had recently consulted with the attor-
ney general and several Congressman
with view to remedying the defects.

by means of resolution, which would
require only majority vote, will be

and then be taken up in the form OF
resolution in open Senate and House.
THE IMMIGRATION BILL,
for which Senator Lodge stands spon-
sor is practically at the head of the
Senate legislative calendar, and will be
considered early in the session. Sen
ator Lodge to-day repeated his inten-
ton of pressing the bill, but he will
not antagonize the Hawaiian treaty
with it. The first bill on the calendar
is Senator Gears measure, providing for
the adjustment OF the Pacific railroad
debt, but the sale of the Union Pacific
doubtless will have the effect of caus-
ing the temporary withdrawal of this
bill and the substitution of others. OF
the 800 bills on the calendar about 200
are private pension bills, and all of
these probably will be disposed of at
one sitting when taken up. There are
also several hundred recess appoint
ments to be considered in executive
session.
1t is not probable that much will be
done in the way of Legislation during
the present week. There will be an
adjournment for the day after receiv-
ing the message on Monday, and as
there is no disposition to press the
Hawaiian matter until the Foreign Re-
lations Committee agrees upon line
OF action, the indications now are that
it will not be taken up in the Senate
before the next week.

IN MENSE CROWDS
Attracted to the Funeral Of Gulden-
suppe, at New York City, Yester-
day--The Body, Still Lacking the
Head, Arrayed in a Dress Suit.

New York, December 5.-The funeral
of bath-rubber Guldensuppe, who was
murdered at Woodside, L. l., on June
25th, by Martin Thorn and Augusta
Mack, occurred at two o'clock this
afternoon from an undertaking shop
on East Third street, where the body
had lain since it was removed from
the morgue.
All day Saturday and to-day from
eleven o'clock in the morning until the
hour of the funeral, immense crowds
of the curious fiocked to the undertake
ing establishment to get look at the
remains of the murdered man. At one
time to-day it is estimated that sixty
persons passed the coffin every min
ute. The crowd entered by the front
door and passed out through the rear.
The dismembered body, arrayed in
dress suit, lay in an oak coffin with
sliding glass top. The right arm was
crossed over the breast. Where the
head should have been was a vacant
space, save for a photograph of the
murdered man, which was placed
against the side of the coffin.
Upon the coffin plate was engraved:
Christian w. Guldensuppe, died
June 25, 1897. aged AZ years.
The funeral was arranged by two
lodges of which Guldensuppe was a
member. Eight members of the night
crew of bath-rubbers, who worked
with Guldensuppe, contributed a large
floral head piece about four feet high.
Two wreaths were sent by the lodges.
There was no ceremonies whatever.
At two o'clock the coffin was placed in
a hearse and driven over TO the Luth-
eran cemetery at Middle Village, L. |.

us WHEELING MONDAY, DECEMBER 1897

The case is one in which we muN be
prepared for the end at any moment.
When the end comes, it will merely be
the passage out of the comatose con-
dition in which she now rests to the
sleep of death. There will be no rally,
no more conscious periods, no final
struggle
The patient has taken no nourish-
ment since Thursday. 1t cannot be ad-
ministered by ordinary methods, and
the case is one in which heroic meth
DDS of administering food are not re-
garded justifiable. They could not re-
store healteh, would be distressing and
annoying, and might hasten the end.
Canton, Ohio, December 5.-At 9:45
o'clock p. m. DR.. Phillips left Mrs. Nc
Kinley. He said she was growing
weaker rapidly now and he scarcely
thought she could survive the night.
She is in no pain or distress, simply
quietly passing away.

singing and acting were the signal for
most enthusiastic applause. Miss Mir

berger sang most acceptably and re-
eeived hearty applause. Miss Mary
MacHenry and Miss Mabelle Ashmore
were delightful in their parts. Miss
Kate O'Brien and Miss Frances Nc

The entertainment closed with a Black
vile cake walk, which was host in
Itself. The cake was mounted On a pink
and white stand. and was trimmed
with ornamental vines, and was award
