STILL NO CLUE.
New York Police are as Much at Sea as
Ever.

New York, January 2s-Significant
a. have seemed many of the alleged new
clues turned up in the Adams poisoning
mystery, nearly every one has come to
own to the commonplace after close in
vsstigation. In this category must be
placed for the present at least, all the
private letter boxes and the letter box
and patent medicine advertisers The
man who had letter box in Hickman 8
place in West 42d street, under the name
of Barnet in last May more than likely
was the man who hired box in No 1920
Broadway, under the name Of Cornish,
last December.
But assuming that this man knew
Barnet and Cornish, there remains still q
wide gap to be bridged over before the
man Is connected with the sending Of
poison to Harry Cornish. The hsndwrit-
ing experts have not discovered letter
that they can say positively was written
by the same hand that penned the address
on the poison package. The alleged III.
G. Barnet" who sent letters to drug firms
all over the country, applied to the Fow-
Ter Drug company of Moodus Conn,
among others, for a circular, to be sent to
q private letter box in West 42d street.
Captain MoClusky obtained a circular
from the same concern, which was mailed
ON January IA to Harry Rogers" I'D
street and Elevated station, Sixth avenue
line. Henry A. Rogers, commissioner
Of education. according to the World, said
tonight that he believed his name had
been used by the poisoner to get samples
Of medicine MIR. Rogers formerly was
treasurer Of the New York Athletic club
and for years has been one Of its in1uen.
tiAl members He declared that he han
always bssn known about the club as
Harry Roger&" All the work the p olioe
have been doing for many days past has
revolved around the Kickerbooker Ath-
letic club and the New York Athletic
club.

day long and tonight delegations of the
antlered tribe, from all sections of the
country, stepped off the trains at the

ters assigned to them at different hotels.
A conservative estimate tonight places the
arrivals at 1900, and by tomorrow night
it is expected they will be augmented

immense host, probably 10000 or 25,00O
strangers will be In St. Louis to witness
the parade and other festivities of the
week. The city is decorated from end to
end, with purple and white bunting, and
old glory fiutters in the breeze from In
Vulnerable fagstaffs. Tonight the streets
are crowded with marching delegations

CIRCLE CITY, Alaska, May 70 (Via
San Francisco. June 19).-A story of pos
sible cannibalism and death on the Yu-
kon trail has just reached here. Three
men who left Dahl river on Dec g. for
Jimtown, were not heard of again, and
they were supposed to have been lost.
Nothing was heard of them here until the
steamer Rideout, which arrived today,
brought terrible tale of suffering and
horror. The men were Michael Daily,
Victor Ediar and M. Provost. They were
from Providence, r. l.; Woonsocket, r.
l.. and Brockton, Mass, respectively
Their bodies were discovered fifteen
miles from the mouth of Old Mans
creek, they having lost the trail and be-
come bewildered Having left Dahl river
with only three weeks food, but which
was amply sufficient for the fifteen miles
to Jimtown, they were soon reduced to

Daly's body was found partly eaten. on
the stove, intact, just as 1t was when
death overlook the others Some scraps
of moose hide and moccasin were found,
of which they were endeavoring to make
stew. Daly's body was identified by
the clothes. The other two men were
found dead five miles away from the
tent. The fact of the tent flaps being
shut down when found would seem to
preclude the possibility of Daly's body
having been eaten by animals. The other
men doubtless were driven by hunger to
the awful extremity of cannibalism.
Four hundred dollars were found on the
bodies. The seven boats which wintered
at Dahl river are all safe. They are the

CHICAGO, June 19-The grand jury to-
day began the investigation of the charge
of attempted jury bribing against Daniel
Coughlin. J. F. Taylor, the juror whom
1t is charged the attempt was made to
bribe, testified that a man giving the
name of Summers offered him $f25 In cash
and gave him diamond worth $l25. This
diamond, he said, he showed to Judge
Tuthill, before whom the case was being
tried Mrs Taylor, wife of the juror,
testified to seeing Summers" with her
husband, and identified him positively
as Coughlin, whom. she declared, she
had known previously.
In an interview tonight Taylor said:
'I was first offered SIPS by man who
looks very much like Coughltns bar
tender, but l told him 1 would rather do
business with the principal. The next
night Coughlin came, and I told him the
amount offered was too small, SO he
said he would double it. but would come
to my home to deliver 1t the next night.
1 had two officers concealed in the house,
and when Coughlin came l again told
him the amount was too little He. said
he could give me more, and asked for
the diamond. stud he wore as an evidence
of good faith He gave it to me willing
ly When he came back, shortly after,
with the money to redeem his diamond
he discovered there were witnesses, and
left the house as quickly as he could.
The officers will be used as witnesses
at the trial.

1t VIII Be Resubmitted to the Grand
Jury.
NEW YORK, June 19-Justice Furs-
man in the criminal term of the supreme
court today signed the order resubmit-
ting the case of Roland B. Molineaux,
accused of the poisoning of Mrs Kate J.
Adams, to the grand jury.
Col. Church, foreman of the grand jury
that failed to indict Molineux, handed in
an affidavit today, in reply to charges
made by Assistant District Attorney Os-
borne, a few days ago. Mr.. Osborne
charged that the grand jury asked ques-
tions of the witnesses which tended to
exonerate the accused instead of con-
victing him. The substance of Col.
Churchs answer is a complete denial of
Mr. Osbornes charges. Col. Church said
that neither he nor any other member
of the grand jury had any feeling or
bias in the matter; that his acquaintance
with Gen. Molineux, the father of the
accused, was confined entirely to military
matters Col Church being editor of the
Army and Navy Journal. The grand jury,
he says, gave careful and exhaustive con-
sideration to the case, and not a member
was convinced that the address on the
poison package was written by Molineux.

CAMPAIGN FUND.

Omaha WOrId-Hera1d VIII Start
One for Democracy.
OMAHA, Neb., June 19.-In a call for a
national fund for 1900 the World-Herald
tomorrow will say:
Tomorrow the World-Herald will start
a fund for the use of the Democratic ma
tional campaign committee. This fund is
needed by the committee in the educa-
tional work of preparing for the great
presidential campaign of 1900.
'"The national committee went through
the campaign of 1896 almost without
money. 1t will have little or no money
in 1900 unless systematic work is carried
on to raise it in small subscriptions, all
over the country. The corporate wealth
of the country was, in 1896, and Will be
in 1900, arrayed upon the Republican side
Indeed, the phenomenal growth of great
trusts during the last two years insures 10
the Republicans a larger campaign fund
than ever. This fund can be silently and
suddenly raised. Not so, however, with a
Democratic campaign fund If raisel at
all, 1t must be procured at great effort,
in small sums from many contributors.
This will take time A beginning must
be made early, and the laborious work Of
raising fund in small subscriptions paw
able in installments must be begun
