NOTED PRIEST FOUND
DEAD IN NEW YORK

New York, May 1S.-The body of q
man found late Thursday night in a
house In Ninth avenu has been identi-
fled as that of the Rev. Edward S.
Phillips Of st. Gabriers Church, Halle
ton, Pennsylvania, who recently had a
conference with j. 7. Morgan with ref
erence to the threatened STRIFE in the
iron and coal regions of Pennsylvania.
skirk Stanley, n massage operator, in
whose rooms the body was found, is
under arrest as n suspicious person.
Decomposition had so far advanced
that n cursory examination was not
sufficient to reveal the cause of death.
The body of Father Phillips was re
moved to the morgue. DIR. A. f.
Dougherty of Wilkesbarre, Pennsylva-
mia, who said he is n nephew of the
priest. identified the body. He said
Father Phillips had come to the city
to buy some s~tatuary for his church.
Coroner Bausch committed Stanley
to the Tomhs In default of $4,000 bail,
TO await the result of the autopsy.
Stanley, in an interview with a re-
porter, said:
''This is terrible. / thought ! had
been arrested for n debt of SIS | owed a
Mrs. Goldstein. | did not know the
body of the priest was in my ROOM"
1.-The police say the woman who liv-
ed with you rs your wife brought the
priest there that morning."
That's n lie," he cried ~eXcitedly.
'She was lot there that day at all.
We had quarreled."
An autopsy was held, at the conclu-
sion of which Coroner Bausch said that
no marks of violence had been found
on the body. The condition of the or
nNN- I.-.--1 ..I-s A. l-u -.1
fered from chronic nephritis and fatty
liver. The coroner said that, owing to
the suspicious circumstances surround.
ing the case, it was deemed advisable
to have the vital organs analysed.
The police theory so far is that the
priest died in DIR. SANKEY'S rooms, Ell
ther after having been drugged for
robbery, or simply as a result of in
~toXication and excitement, and thai
Stanley was afraid to notify the au.
thoritieS. putting 1t off from day to
day. The body was found in such n
position, they say as to make 1t look
as If 1t Ia been carried into the room,
where 1t was found, from the larger
adjoining room, and there laid out.
Father Phillips was pastor of the
st. Gabriel's Church, Mt Hazleton,
Pennsylvania. He was born in 1851,
at Hawley, Wayne county, PennSylva-
mia, where his father worked in the
mines. He attended the public schools
at Pittston, Pennsylvania, and finished
his studies ut st. Charles College. ELL
oft City. Maryland. and st. Charles
Theological Seminary. Philadelphia.
He was ordained to the priesthood in
1875. He was located in various parts
of the Scranton diocese, coming to Ha-
Zelton four years ago. Recently the
tw~enty-fifth anniversary of his eleva,
ton to the priesthood was celebrated
there and n large number of priests
and catholic dignitaries from the sur
rounding country came to Hazelton to
do him honor.

pounds when she was in good health.
When she commenced with family
physician in April, 1898, she weighed
about 100, but kept going down all the
time. She went to Atlanta, Ca, and
took treatment, but 1t did her no good.
Then she went to Harmony Grove, Ga,
and took treatment from the best ply
stefan there for three months. She
kept going down under his treatment,
although he was considered the best
physician in the county. She went
down from 100 pounds to IS, and we
saw she could not live long. She was
a skeleton. We consulted an old ply
stefan who told her to use Peruna. She
gradually improved and got stronger.
She has gained 3S pounds since she
has taken Peruna. and Is gaining ev-
