USEFULNESS NEARLY OVER.
Coal Exchange VIII Not lie Needed
when Combines Are Formed.

PITTSBURG, Aug. 29.-With the ad-
vent of the two combinations in the
river and railroad coal trades, one in
stitution which has done a great deal
for the mining and shipping interests
of this section will likely pass out Of
existence. This is the Pittsburg Coal
exchange When the question OF free
navigation on the Monongahela was
first brought up, this organization be-
gan systematic work which was of
great benefit to the river coal shippers
and did much toward Fastening the
purchase of the Monongahela slack wa
ter improvements by the national gov
ernment
Captain John F. Dravo, as secre-
tary of the Coal exchange. did much
service in collecting and tabulating in
formation on the river trade showing
the necessity of free navigation. The
exchange kept a close watch on bridge
building over the Ohio and always saw
that the bridge laws for the protec
tion Of marine interests were rigdly
observed. At each recurring time fol-
congressional action on river apprO-
priations the Pittsburg Coal exchange
exerted quite an influence in favor Of
Ohio river improvements and in fact
there has been no important matter af-
fecting the river trade in which that
body has not taken an active and effec-
tive part

the bedside were Colonel and Mrs. A
B. Hilton, Mrs. Horace Russell, his
daughter, and DR.. John Miner, his
physician.
Funeral services will be held here on
Sunday afternoon and the remains will
be taken to Greenwood on Monday.
Judge Hilton was in his 18th year.
Up to within few hours of his death
the family hoped that the judge would
recover, but when the relapse again
prostrated him and he became uncon-
scious it became apparent that he did
not possess sufficient physical strength
to enable him to rally. He continued
to sink and his death was painless at
the hour named.

MYSTERIOUS MURDER.
A Young Man Found Dead In the Yard
of His Gosrding House.

HARRISBURG, Aug. 29.-The West
ern Electric company Of New York city
Is installing the new unde g ouEd
switch system of the Pennsylvania
Telephone company Among the force
of employees sent here To do this work
was Edward Reinis!,e, a young man Of
90 He was above tn, average in intel
lgence, and was well liked. Early in
the morning his dead bydy was found
in the ward of Misc Woodward's resi-
dence on Front street, where he had
roomed with a young man named Jen-
nings
There is a deep mystery surrounding
his death, but the most genera ly ac-
cepted theory is that he is a victim of
foul play. He left the telephone build
ing in the afternoon, and went to his
room, which he left about o'clock for
his boarding house. A seat check found
on his person indicates that he was at
the opera house that night. After the
play he accompanied a strange man to
the medical institute on Second stree,
where he was treated for some injury
of the nose. That was the last he was
seen alive.
the arms extended and his head resting
on a coil of garden hose. There was
slight scalp wound and also a slight
abrasion of the left hip and leg. These
were not sufficient to produce death,
and the superintendent of the telephone
company l.. H. Kinnard, Jr.. ordered
an autopsy. This showed that the neck
was broken and that death must have
been instantaneous. Some blood spots
were found under the balcony in the
yard, but the heavy rains during the
night had removed all othe blood
marks if there were any. The sur cons
say that Reinicke could not have stag
gered from the blood spots under the
balcony to where he was found after
such an injury or blow.
The young mans hat and umbrella
were found near him, and it is not be-
lieved that he was in the house at all.
The gas had been left burning in the
room by Jennings and was still burn
ing in the morning. Reinicke was not
known to have any enemies and W an
inoffensive young man. 1t Is believed
that the body had been there at least
five hours when discovered. There is
no clue at all to the manner of his
death.
Coroner Grouse has left for New
York with the body. Reinickes father
lives at 600 One Hundred and Second
street

boat Brought Into Service.

SHANGHAI, Aug. 2S.-As the out
come of a dispute regarding the pos
session of some lands at Hankow,
about 700 miles from the sea, which
was purchased in 1866 by the concern
Of Jardine, Matheson & Co., but were
subsequently included in the new con-
cession to Russia, the owners, under
the advice and protection of Mr.. Hurst,
the British consul, sent workmen to
fence in the tract.
After the work had been commenced
a dozen cossacks from the Russian
consulate appeared on the scene and
forcibly elected the workmen.
The captain of the British second
class gunboat Woodlark, specially de-
signed for river service, after consult
ing with Mr.. Hurst, landed a party OF
blue jackets and moved the Woodlark
into firing distance of the Russian con-
sulate. For a time a fight seemed i'm
minent, but nothing further occurred.
The blue jackets are now guarding the
property.
The British third class gunboat Esk
has been despatched to Hankow from
this port. Great Britain is evidently
determined to uphold British rights.

Aug. 2S.-Recent events have proved
discouraging to officials who are trying

treachery of the mayors. The mayor
of San Pedro Macati, who was elected
by the people under the direction Of

lodged in jail. The United States Off

the natives in the town an opportunity
to prove their friendship putting them
to work at digging trenches and clean

them.

The president said:
Love of flag and love of country
are not inconsistent with religious

for our country and that more people
love the flag than before. Whenever
that flag is raised it stands not for des-
potism and oppression, but for liber-

that flag has done for us we want 1t
to do for all people and all lands which
by fortunes of war have come within
