largely composed. The audience APP
plauded to the echo, DIR. p S. Hen

the expression of approval.
From the Wine and Spirit Y ws.

is blasphemous wretch and vile i'm

of piracy from the Atlantic TO thv
Missouri river. For much less in
famout lying Aaasias and Sapphira

Double Strangling Case.
Coroner Walker Gives Out That He
HAS Clue Which May Be
Fruitful.

Evansville, Ind, NOV. 15.-Develop-
ments show little that is new in the
mystery surrounding the deaths of
Mrs. Railey and Miss Renner. Theo-
ries are plentiful and rumors are nu-
merous, and all are investigated, but
nothing seems to come of them The
police have given out that they sus
pect a certain man of the murder of
Mrs. .Railey, but his name cannot be
learned. He disappeared from here
suit. He was followed through Illi-
nois and to st. Louis. He was so
closely pressed there that he again
returned to Illinois, and it is reported
that he was still eluding the officer.
An attempt has been made to keep
the absence of the detective a secret.
but the bare fact of his mission leaked
out. Hayes, the ST. Louis travelling
man, is still to be heard from. The
general belief is that the man will yet
figure conspicuously in the case. The
police do not discuss Hayes further
than to admit that he was very inti-
mate with the Railey woman and was
extremely jealous of her in regard to
receiving the attentions of other men.
Coroner Walker Is taking evidence
in both cases. but as the inquest is
secret nothing definite can be learned
regarding his information. He says
he believes he has clue to the MUIR
derer of the Renner woman and that
he will order an arrest before the
week is over. Mrs. Railey and her
husband. while separated. were not
divorced. Railey is said to be a far
mer near Stephensport. Ky.
