DOUBT
Story Told by Clark.
Many Believe He Was
Struck by Train.
It's Admitted That He
Was Intoxicated.
Coroner Begins Examination
of Witnesses.
After Taking Testimony He Adjourned
Inquest to Wed 'esday.

Coroner e. o. Leberman went to
Hudson Monday afternoon to conduct
an inquest over the remains of Aaron
Clark who died Monday morning from
the effect of a murderous assault
made upon him Thursday night.
The coroner held postmortem exam
nation. He was assisted by DR..
Haynes of Hudson. The surgeons
found that Clarks left arm had been
broken. A finger upon the right hand
was broken also, and the skull had
been fractured by blow received
from a blunt instrument.
After examining the body, the Cor
oner summoned a number Of witnesses
and began his official inquest Those
who gave testimony were Jacob Gier,
Daniel Myers, George Cannon, John
Bali and Max Lees. DR.. Leberman
stated Tuesday that nothing Of import
ance was brought out at the inquest.
lie will continue the examination
Wednesday.
Coroner Leberman is not disposed to
place a great deal OF credence in any
statement Clark may have made be-
fore his death as the dying man was
Undoubtedly in scmi.unconscious con-
dition.
There is n growing belief that Clark
was not assaulted but that he was
struck by train while crossing the
tracks and thrown to one side. From
the nature of his injuries 1t would ap.
pear that there is good ground for this
theory. Witnesses agree that he was
I intuxicated and the officials are in
clined to the belief that he did not
know just what had caused his
wounds.

The magnitude of the potenti-

of Great Britain has been graph
i,ally illustrated during the past
few months. owing to the state
of affairs in China. When En-

troops were dispatched from En-
gland in their transports witht ut
any appreciable interference with
her mail service to the various
parts of the world. True. some
Of the larger, more conmodlous,
and heeter vessels were com
mandepred to accelerate he pas
sage of the troops to the seat OF
war, but their places upon the
mail services were easily filled by
other boats, and the information
al traffic has been carried on In
it's usua manner. Indeed, 1t was
difficult to believe that the coun
try WAS at war, since everything
was accomplished 50 smoothly
and without the slightest hitch.
But the same cannot be Said IN
connection with the maritime
commerce of other nations. The
transportation of the troops from
Germany to China was such "A

tic though the maritime com
