THE MURDER OF EYRE.
Arrest of Suspects Likely to BE Made
at Any Time.

PHILADELPHIA. Jan. "a. - Although
there have been no arrests in connection
with the murder of George B. Eyre, Chief
Berry, of the Chester police. is convinced
that he has the men who did the deed
under surveillance. 1t has been shown
that it was not a river man who tied the
knots that bound Eyres legs. 1t has also
been proved by expert examination that
spots of blood. that were In the boat
which was stolen from the Alpha boat
house. for the theft of which James Pierce
is under bail, were not as Pierce said.
spots of duck blood. but of human blood.
Further investigation leads to the belief
that Eyre was not shot by a person in
his own boat, but in q boat near it. and
so there are at least two men who will
be arrested.
James Pierce has a brother, "Pinney,
who is at present in Camden, and there are
several persons who say they saw him in
Chester the day Eyre went on his trip.
There is a story current here tonight that
a sister Of the Pierce brothers has made
confession, duplicating her brother.
This story is that James, on Christmas.
went to her house and exhibited a roll Of
money, and also offered her a gold watch
for a present, which she refused. Chief
Berry said tonight that he was ready to
make arrests but that there was no hurry
as the men could not escape. The delay
is owing to a doubt as to whether the
crime was committed in New Jersey or
Pennsylvania.

NEW PRIESTS FOR NEW YORK.
The Order OF the Blessed Sacrament
tn He Established There.

NEW YORK. Jan. 24.-At meeting Of
number of prominent Roman Catholics,
interested in the work of the Peoples
Eucharistic League held at the home of

day afternoon Archbishop Corrigan an
nOunced that he had decided to sanction the
establishment of the order of the Priests
Of the Blessed Sacrament in this city The
meeting was called for the purpose of
hearing the archbishops decision, and TO
discuss the work of the league.
The Peoples Eucharistic League was
established about four years ago. and has
grown so rapidly that its membership is
now Is 600 distributed all over the country
There are at least 5000 members in this
city The central body OF the organiza-
tion is in the Cathedral parish. The OBJ
jeCt of the members of the league is the
perpetual alteration of the Blessed Sacra-
ment Some time ago it was suggested
that as the league had grown to such pro-
portions it would be a good scheme to
have the organization under the direction
of the Priests of the Blessed Sacrament
There was no branch of this order in this
city. and it was necessary to secure the
archbishOp's consent to the establishment
of branch diocese.
In announcing his decision Archbishop
Corrigan recited the history of the founda-
tion of the Order of the Blessed Sacrament
and of it's founder. Father Eymard. He
said that there was branch of the order
in Montreal and that a number of priests
there had volunteered to come to this city.
The Priests of the Blessed Sacrament will
not be here until the fall. They will be
quartered in some big house until church
and rectory can be erected.
