Mike MILLER
NOT KILLED BY
HUMAN HANDS.
CorOner's Investigation Results in a
Verdict of Accidental Death,
and the Police
AUTHORITIES ARE IN LINE
With This View of the case-There
Are No Indications That the
Nan Was Murdered.

After a full and complete investiga-
ton OF the facts surrounding the affair,
st has been settled that Michael Miller,
the young man whose body was found
on the Baltimore & Ohio railroad tracks
at Elm Grove Tuesday morning, was
not murdered, and that his death was
the result of falling from a moving
freight train.
As chronicled yesterday in the Intel
llgencer, Dr. Carter, one of the physI-
clans who conducted the post norton
examination, was positive that the holes
in the dead mans head were not caused
by revolver or gun shot, but on the
other hand were probably the result of
Miller being struck by projecting roo
on the freight car
Both Drs. Alexander and Carter were
witnesses at the inquest conducted yes
terday afternoon at Elm Grove by
County Coroner schultse. and they
united In the view that Miller had not
been murdered. Other witnesses were
William II. Rose, the man who dIscov-
cred the body. and County Constable
John Anderson, who took charge OF the
remains and had them taken to the un-
dertalSing establishment In Elm Grove.
The result Of the inquest was the YER
dict that Miller came to his death by
railroad accident The theory is that
soon after leaving the Imperial hotel
early Tuesday morning he boarded n
Baltimore & Ohio freight train, and at
the place were the body was found he
fell between the cars and was run over
and killed.
The intimation in the evening paper
that there were some things in this case
that led the authorities to disagree with
the view taken by Drs. Alexander and
Carter is not borne out by the facts.
The authorities thoroughly agree with
the verdict reached by the coroner yes
terday
The dead man is stranger In this
community, ana it is now said h. is nos
son of Michael Miller who resides in
this county near the Pennsylvania state
line, in the vicinity of West Alexander.
Arrangements were made with County
Commissioner McCurdy last night for
the burial of the remains at the ex-
pense of the county to-day in the coun-
ty inHrmary cemetery, near Elm Grove.

A COSTLY SCHEME.
Postal Pneumatic Tubes Prove EE-
pensive and of Little Real Adj
vantage in Time Gained.

The hearing on the postal pneumat-
ic tube system before the house. com
mittee on post offices and post roads
develops the fact that the concern
proposes to ask the government to
pay an annual rental of S2,5OO, 900 for
this. service. This is equal to the. in
terest on $1OO,OOO,OOO of government
bonds. 1t will be seen, therefore, at
a glance what an enormous expense
this would entail upon the govern
ment. Such a system is now in opera
ton in New York, but at an excessive
cost. While it does expedite some
mails, the time saved is slight and
entirely disproportionate to the enor'
nous expense of the system.
The government is now asked not
to install a system of its own, but to
pay a private corporation ten per
cent. annually on the money invested
and this in spite of the fact that the
government can get all the money il
wants for 23s per cent. Thus will the
concern make a clear profit of III
