that they had business relations with
offenders OF the law, and might be>in-
jured IL the laws were enforced. We
also have convictions as to the Tela-
tons between righteousness and civic
prosperity. We believe that the liquor
traffic cannot be licensed without sin.
All Methodists say that, yet some peo-
pie say we could not well get along
without license, as the revenue helps
pay school taxes and other taxes. or
course, they agree that we would be
better without the liquor traffic, but
they compromise and trust that God
will have mercy on them somehow.
So far as the mere fact is concerned,
we are agreed that the liquor traffic
cannot be licensed without sin, but
have we the deep conviction of righte-
business? We know that the men who
did wonders for us in the past, were
men who couldn't make any compro-
mise with wrong. Lincoln declared that
the nation could not exist half free and
half slave.
Patriotism, the love of home and OF
city, is the best thing to conjure by.
The more Wheeling becomes like
Sodom, the less it is like home; the
more it becomes like the new Jerusa-
lem, the more it becomes like home.
Yet we are permitting our enemies to
come here and rob us of the dearest
things we have in our houses. Nehe-
miah spent twelve long years that he
might build UP the walls Of jerusalem,
and it would be we'll for the men and
women here tonight to devote their
lives to building up the walls of Wheel
ing.
Nehemiah is needed because he went
to work. He didn't offer to contribute
a check, but worked personally. We
need men and women to go to work.
There are enough here tonight to go
to the Chief of Police in the morning
and say We want you to enforce the
laws. If they would assemble in his
Office, his answer would be that he
would do anything you want him to DO,
and he would do it, There are enough
Christian men and women here, with
Gods blessing and confidence in them,
to revolutionize this town.

his way out from the house by the
front door.
A reward of $4,000 stimulated the
regular police and private detectives
to unusual efforts in trying to run
down the murderers, but nearly two
weeks passed without anything being
accomplished. 1t was settled by the
sleuths that three men were engaged
in the murder, and the object of the
raid was to rob the safe, which was
thought to contain several thousand
dollars in cash. This latter part of the
theory was plausible, but no explana-
ton was ever offered for the belief that
any particular number of men took part
in the burglary and murder.
The first real clew to the identity of
the murderers was had from the keep
er of a lodging house on West Madison
street. Some two weeks or so after
the killing this woman, in cleaning up
the room of one of her dodgers, who
went by the name Of T. A. Scott, came
across a lot of charred papers in a
stove In pulling these out she noticed
that one of the scraps was the end of
a check bearing the signature Of A. j.
Smell. She reported the matter to the
police, and a search of "Scott's'' room
brought to light a number of other
papers that had been taken from Mr..
Smells safe. A lot of stolen silverware
was also found in the closet.
Scott" had disappeared but it took
little work to identify him as Willie
Tascott, the son of reputable paint
dealer on the West Side. Young Tas-
colt was a wild lad, well known in the
vicinity of Latin and Madison streets.
particularly at Woodberry's billiard
hall, where he was steady patron. He
was never known to do any regular
work, and yet was always fairly well
supplied with money. Burglaries had
been frequent in that part of the city,
that winter, and it was an easy matter
for the police, in view Of the discoveries
made in Tascott's room, to trace most
of them to him. 1t is a surprising fact,
however that nothing has ever been
learned as to the identity of his part
ners. That he had accomplices in his
various raids is a certainty, especially
in the one which resulted in the murder
of A. ]. Smell, but the police were never
able to discover them.
Tascott was trailed to Milwaukee. where
the detectives found his satchel in a pawn
shop. He had been there a few hours
ahead of them. as was made plain by the
testimony OF the pawn broker and the
employees about the railway station. who
described him perfectly, but he covered his
trail securely until he reached Minneapo-
lis, where he was again heard of just
ahead of the arrived Of the officers At
that city he dropped out of sight COM

best detectives in the West secured the
country for miles around. but Tascott was

to Medical Colleges.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, November H.-Four

travelling men to carry samples, each con-
tanning a corpse, were taken from the bag
gage room at the Union Station to-day,
and Frank Thompson, who says he is city
undertaken of Memphis, Tenn, Is undtr
arrest. Charges against Thompson are
being formulated.
Fer some time the police have been
aware that traffic in human bodies has
been going on through this city and have
been on the watch for evidence. Recently

made, addressed to ]. II. Hansen, at Keo-
kuk Iowa, to whom those captured to-day
were consigned.

Thompson made a clean breast OF the
whole affair He said he had the contract
for burying the city dead Of Memphis.
For some time he had been selling the
bodies TO medical colleges throu5hou. this
part of the country. His method was to
pack them with excelsior in drummers'
zinc lined trunks and take them with him
as baggage as far as st. Louis. From here
he shipped the trunks to their destination
by express. Thompson said ne had been
paid all the way from so 10 500 per body.
