MANILA AS SUMNER RESORT
.(From the Chicago Times-Herald.)

(From the Chicago Times-H -Herald)
Dispatches from Manila tell of heavy
rainfalls which have. flooded the country
that is held by the American troops One
regiment the Thirteenth Infantry, is said
to be surrounded by water, which has in
Vaded the camp to such an extent that it
stands three feet deep beneath the hunks
of the soldiers. The inquiry will naturally
arise, is this an ordinary condition at the
time of year and how long may it be ex-
pected to last?
The rainy season begins in June and
continues into November. Meteorological
records kept through the long term of "a
years show that there are great varia-
tons in the rainfall, both for the summer
and winter months. There have been
years in which no rain fell in February
or March April or May, but the dry sea-
son is not always absolutely dry There
have been high ten inches Of rain
in May.
This, however. is very unusual, and on
the average there is a marked increase in
June over May-from 4.3O inches to 9.6s
inches. Variations in June run from 0.98
to. 25.S1 inches, SO that it is hard TO tell
what each new year will bring forth, but
the month is generally the overture to
what the Filipino would call wet weather.
The banner months are July, August and
September, for which the following fig
ures of the rainfall in inches are given.

nothing new to report.

POISONING CASE.
ARREST OF MRS. ELLA GRAY
OF CONOWINGO.
In ElktOn Jail Awaiting Hearing on
the Charge of Poisoning Her Husband
Henry Scott Gray, Who Died April 9th


The mystery surrounding the death Of
Henry Scott Gray, at Conowingo, on April 3
last, which has kept that community in a
state OF more or less excitement, is now being
sifted to the bottom by the authorities, and a
number of important developments have
taken place within the last few days, chiefly
the arrest on Wednesday, of Mrs. Ella Gray,
wife of the deceased. She was brought to
the EIkton jail Immediately and is held for a
hearing on the charge of having caused the
death of her husband 10y poisoning.
Since the suspicious nature of the case be-
came known States Attorney W. Evans has
been carrying on an investigation and suffi-
cient evidence was procured by Tuesday to
warrant the arrest of the accused. The
States Attorney and Sheriff Conoly went to
Conowiugo, early Wednesday morning and
found the accused at home with her four
children. two OF whom We're sick with
measles. She denied the crime charged to
her and while not specially agitated over her
arrest manifest much concern over having to
leave her children. But the officials secured
the best OF care for them and the mothers
anxiety essened Mrs Gray is prepossessing
In appearance and about thirty-ilve years Of
age She is daughter OF the tho late Alex
ander Mcdowell, aud a native OF this county.
The death Of Henry Scott Gray occurred
on the evening Of April 8, last. He was about
thirty years Of age and apparently in robust
health and attended to his duties of the day
and ate supper with his family as usual
Shortly after retiring he was taken sud
denly ill., spasm following spasm. A physi-
clan was sent for but when he arrived Gray
was dead. When the circumstances sur
rounding his death became noised about foul
play was suspected, and the Order Of Ameri-
can Mechanics, OF which Gray was Il member
urged an investigation, and States Attorney
Evans was notified. Drs. Roman and
Reagan made slight examination and
pronounced death as resulting from natural
causes, but the examination was not regarded
as sufficiently thorough, and on Thursday
County Health Officer Bratton had the body
exhumed and obtained pi rts of the body
which have been sent to chemist for analy-
sis to ascertain whether there are evidences
OF poisoning.
detective on the case learned that Mrs.
Gray had purchased nine grains of strychnia
at the drug store OF Reagan Brothers, at
Corowiugo, on April T. and which was regis
tered upon their books. 1t is further claimed
that Mrs Gray told conflicting stories regard
ing her husbands death. and that their mar
ried life was not conGeuial. The deceased
was insured in the Order Of Mechanics for
$500.
