The coroner. DIR. Eber K Watts,
has filed his verolct with the clerk OF
the court. in the case OF William Car
ney the heroic engineer who was killed
at the Carpenter roller mills on last
Saturday. The verdict is accompan-
led by all thelevidenee found IN the case,
together with the apte- mortem state
ment of Mr. Carney himself The verdict
is that the coroner. having expmined
the body of William Carney and heard
the testimony of all eognizsnt with the
facts accompanying and leading 10
said death, finds thatj the deceseed
came to his death on Decem Der l 1898,
by slipping and falling with his
right leg caught on an arm OF the mas
ter wheel IN the Richmond Roller
Mills, and that that fall and the conse
quent injury was the cause of his
death, which occu red on the following
day. The immediate cause of his
death, said the coroner, WAS the shock
and the hemorrhage attendant upon
that accident, the leg being crushed
off within six inches of the body. The
verdict also in the most explicit terms
states that there is no blame attaching
to the proprietor, manager or his en-
ployees of the mill, but that it was
purely an accident.
This is the end of what the PALLA-
DUN mildly characterized as q mares
nest when the investigation was be-
gun. The causes of the death were as
clear to the reading public
then as they are now. The
coroner stated then and again
this morning that Carney's son
had said that Carney had made q
dying statement tnat he did not want
made public till after his burial. This
circumstance, the coroner thought,
would indicate that there was some
thing mysterious or hitherto hidden in
the matter. and this added interest to
the investigation. However, when
that anti morlem statement came out
it was of such a nature as to warrant
the statement made in the coroner's g
verdict, and contained practically the
same statement, that he had been
alone in the engine room and had slip.

afterWard by the stumps of trees cut for fuel. Tt was not long before the provisions of the company ran low and little later they were exhausted. Then the slaughter of the oxen and other stock was begun and finally the dogs were sacrificed. Death by starva- tion was a daily occurrence. Than followed horrors upon which the sur vivors refuse to dwell. It is only known that cannibalism prevailed and that the bones which whitened the slope of the Sierras the next SD. ing had been gnawed by those who su-- vived 'It is a matter of pride," said Col Reed, that no member of the Reed family ever partook of this dreadful feast. We ate dogs and when they were gone we kept soul and body together by collecting the bones and breaking and boiling them made a sort of soup that furnished slight suste nance."
 In the meantime Col. Reeds father had pushed on toward Bear valley, where there was a small settlement and another detachment set out latsr for relief. Supplies from two points were taken in and the active horrors of starvation were ended. The bones of half of the, band were left in the | SnOwS. -

The discovery was not made by Marshall. as is generally supposed, but by boy named Weimer, working for Sutter. The boy found a valuable gold speci- ] men in a ditch. It was turned over to
 Marshall for determination as to it's character and it passed into history that he discovered gold in California
 He became the recipient also of 8
 more substantial benefit. a pension fOE his discovery. Of the thrilling events
 of his life as an Indian scout and an

Caught in the Pawn Shop With StoleI
 Goods in His Possession.

Isom Ayers, the man who stole a red hot stove from General Sampson, who burglarized Frank Cox's residence and then hired MT. Cox to defend him, who has been three times indicted for burglary and forgery by the Maricopa county grand jury, and the color of whose skin is black, is again in trouble.
 It is forgery and burglary again He robbed Anton Gould of a lamp and some clothing and then pawned the articles in Anton Gould's name. He also robbed MT. Hammond's residence and was caught in the pawn shop by Al Galpin while writing the name of John Tompkins on the pawn ticket.
 1som was arraigned before Justice Johnston in the afternoon and said it wasn't so. He told the justice pri- vately that Ross Rivers, who is now in the jail serving a sentence from Tempe, came and put the things in his room. "Dat am de solm truf, jedge," said Isom; "dat bad man stole dem tings am brought 'em to me-"
 Later in the day Ross Rivers was interviewed by Galpin and he showed the impossibility of Isom's story by citing the fact that at the time the goods were stolen he was in the chain. gang at Tucson. Isom's case will be considered by the grand jury.
