No Developments In the Mysterious
FIaherty Case.

There were no important developments
yesterday in the mysterious case of the
death of Patrick IL Flaherty. who was
found dying on Holyoke's wharf early
sunday morning. The police are work
ing diligently on the case but have not
yet secured any clue as to the manner in
which Flaherty came 10 his death. All
Of the police officials scout the idea that
he was murdered. They reason that II he
had been killed the party or parties who
had committed the deed would not have
gone to the unnecessary pains Of dragging
the wounded man up and around Sturdi-
want wharf and then over to the head OF
Holyoke's wharf, leaving a trail of blood
on that entire course. II Flaherty was
murdered, the police authorities say, he
would have been left to die within a short
distance of where the deed had been COM
mitted.
1T requires big stretch OF the imagi-
nation 10 invent these sensational stories
that this man was murdered" said
Deputy Marshal Firth in speaking of the
affair. 1.-The most OF these absurd claims
are set forth on account of the belief that
the man had been so seriously injured
that he would never have had the
physical strength to go down Sturdivant's
wharf and then over TO Holyoke's wharf.
There are many cases to refute such
claims. Time and again men have
suffered with fractured skulls, the same
as Flaherty did and have been able 60
walk long distance. Once man who
was injured in this way at the corner of
India and Commercial streets walked
from that place to the police station. The
only reasonable thing to believe is that
Flaherty fell down and struck his head
against the railroad track or that he was
struck by car. The blow dazed him and
then he wandered down Sturtevant
wharf and over to Holyokes wharf -
Yesterday Coroner Perry impanellsd a
jury which will meet at the room Of the
county attorney in the City building at
ten o'clock Thursday morning. This
jury is composed of Milton Higgins, fore
man, George W. Beale, George ID. Loring,
George W. Willis, Hanson >. Clay
Turner Berry.
The funeral of Flaherty will take place
at nine o'clock this morning.
