Evidence That Miss Gill Met Death IN

Bridgeport. Conn. Sept. pa search
of Nancy Guilford's house yesterday
settled beyond doubt that Emma
Gill died there. and it was also learned
that her death took place on Sunday.

articles belonging to Mrs. Guilford
were found in the search of the prem
Uses
1t is believed that the first portions
of the dismembered body were thrown
into Yellow Mill pond between 10 and
II O'Clock Sunday night. Mrs. Guilford
hired team from Bank Prothers, on
Broad street, that night, and was gone
two hours, and the Monday night fol-
lowing she had the same team again
and was gone until o'clock the next
morning. Mrs. Casperine. who lives
on Cedar street, about 400 feet from
the bridge where the bundle was
thrown off into the pond. positively
identified the team as one she saw
being driven on the bridge about 1876
on the Sunday night in question. and
she also saw it return a few moments
later.
Superintendent Birmingham stated
last night that he expected to hear OF
the arrest of Mrs. Guilford at any mo-
ment. He was positive that she would
be in custody before many hours.

ence and the stormiest scenes. His
strongest opponent was NJ. Sarrien, the
minister of justice. who expressed a
desire to resign and warned the other
ministers that they were assuming a
terrible responsibility. NM. Niger and
Maruejouls respectively minister OF
agriculture and minister of commerce,
supported NJ Sarrien.
NJ. Brisson fell into violent passion
and declared tearfully that the min
listers ought to credit him with under
standing all the difficulties and the
best way of meeting them. Should they
abandon him ROW by refusing a reVis-
ion it would lie TO face dishonor. AS
a final argument he pointed out that it
would be an extremely grave matter to
force cabinet crisis while the chamber
was not in session. The dissenting min
listers then reluctantly yielded. NJ.
Maruejoul said: 1T is not worth
while TO resign when it is known that
we shall be overturned in fortnight.
General Chanoine. minister of war,
remained neutral.
President Faure hastily returned to
Paris yesterday afternoon. but NJ.
Brisson went to the Bois de Boulogne,
probably 10 avoid presidential inter-
ference until the papers should have
announced the decision in favor of a
revision, NJ. Faure being still strongly
against revision.
The criminal chamber of the court
of cessation. which will examine the
dossier. consists of 10 judges and a
president who happens to be Jew.

The cabinet ordered the minister OF

Manila. Sept. 26.-The Filipino con-

of the question of raising funds to de-

taxes. The inhabitants of the northern
provinces. however, especially of Pam

land or poll taxes. because it was the
popular impression that the revolution
lists would abolish taxation entirely.
