TWO OTHER INQUESTS.
They Were Conducted by Coroner in
.he North Scranton Gases.

Coroner j. j. Roberts yesterday att
ernoon conducted inquests in the cases
Of William ClemmOnS and Mrs. Jane
Edwards, who met their deaths by
falling through the Ontario and West
ern trestle near Dickson City, and OF
William +. Lukens. supervisor OF Rid
ley township, Delaware county, Pa,
whose decomposed remains were found
at the Notch last Sunday by q party
of small boys
The juries decided that Clemmons
and Mrs. Edwards came to their death
by falling through the trestlc while
trespassing on the premises, ana that
I.ukenS died as the result of eXhaus-
ton in the woods, having wandered
there while i'll, and died unable to
make his presence known and receive
assistance.
In the first case DR.. Kennedy, Of
Dickson City, testified to having hur-
ried to the scene of the accident sun
day night and found ClemmOns dead
and Mrs. Edwards dying.
Matthew Mcpherson, postmaster ar
Dickson City, testified that he visited
the place a few minutes after 1t oc-
Cured, being made acquainted with
the accident by three passersby, who
saw an umbrella lying on the trestle
and found the aged couple lying be-
low.
The trestle is used principally for
the small locomotive carrying coal
from the Richmond shaft to the break
cr. and he declared, was an unsafe
nlace for travel, the ties being about
! eiglt inches apart and in some places
| as much as eighteen or twenty inches
! apart. 1t is not used 10 any extent by
pedestrians, and was only taken in this
! instance for a short cut, the couple
| coming from Throop boulevard and
| passing over to catch car.
In his opinion, the couple must have
been walking arm in arm and one of
! them falling dragged the other along
! down.
These were all the witnesses, it be-
ing impossible to locate the persons
who made the discovery.
The Jury decided that it was clear
case OF trespass, and no one could,
therefore, be held responsible for the
accident. Charles Perry, Thomas
Thomas Edward Fidler John c. Rab-
inson. Thomas John and Patrick May
were the jurymen.
LuKENS CASE.
In the inquest to inquire into the
causes of Lukens' death, little Francis
| Saltry, son of Patrolman John Saltry,
was the principal witness. The boy
testified that last Sunday he was
berry-picking with three comrades, and
at a place known as Vinegar hill they
found the decomposed body of man,
| the head being detached and lying
nearby. The four boys Immediately
ran from the spot and notified several
men they met, who returned and took
| charge of the remains
VIII Hopkins, one of the men whom
the boys called, testified that he lives
near the place where the body was
found and that on the boys telling him
of their gruesome discovery he hast
ened to the spot, and there saw the re-
mains. and was one of the party that
mounted guard over them until the
arrival of the coroner.
