HUMAN
SKELETONS
SOUTHERN NEVADA SCENE
OF FIND
Prosecutors Die From Poisoned
Spring

SAN BERNARDINO. Nov. IT,
Aparty of prospectors headed by H.
Arnell, who is well known all over
the desert mining district, has arrived
here, bringing word of the discovery
in southern Nevada, of the remains OF
several people supposed to have been
a party of prospectors.
Arnell and his party had been pros
pecting in Nevada and were on their
way to this city, intending to come
back by way of Mormon Springs.
When near what they supposed was
Timber Mountains they were attrac-
ted to g spring by the luxuriant
growth of vegetation around it.
which could be seen for miles.
Upon nearing the spring they were
startled TO find first a part of hui
man skeleton and little farther On
the remains OF several other skele-
tons, showing that quite party had
perished.
Although the finding OF a human
skeleton or the desert is not an ev-
ent that creates much excitement,
the discovery OF the remains OF an
entire party caused much wonder
among the prospectcrs. especially
when they were so near a water sup
ply. The cause of their death was
soon revealed however.
No sooner had the members OF the
party drunk of the water from the
spring than they were seized with
cramps, some CT the men suffering
intensely. SuspectlIg that the watel
contained a mineral poison. Arnei
cautioned his companions asains
drinking more OF it, and after restin,
over night started for this city, bring
ing with him samples OF the water
The water was analyzed by a chenis
and proved to be heavily charges
with arsenic.

HOUSE.

Washington, May 2S,-speaker Hen
derson attended the funeral Of Lord
Pauncefote today and by his designa-
ton Representative Dalzell Of Pennsyl-
yanla, presided over the deliberations
Of the house. Some routine business was
transacted before the regular order was
demanded
A bill was passed TO authorize the
REIMBURSEMENT to the United States,
OF patent lands and claims within the
limits OF Sequola, Yosemite, and Cen
eral Grant national parks
The regular order then being demand
ed, a vote was taken upon adoption Of
the rule for the consideration Of the
bill TO increase the subsidiary silver
coinage which was pending when the
house adjourned yesterday. The rule
was adopted, 80 to &C. Under its terms
two hours were allowed for general de-
bate.
Mr. Hill, Comm. who had charge Of
the bill, expressed surprise at the crltI-
cism Of the measure INDUCED in by
Mr.. Shafroth yesterday. There seemed
TO be a misunderstanding he said, as
to the scope Of the bill. II had nothing
TO do with the question Of exchange,
abolition or redemption Of silver dollars
contained IN the Fowler bill II covered
only the subject Of subsidiary coinage
and was so innocent that the minority
had not seen III TO attack IL In their
report.

opinion as to the guilt or innocence Of
defendant, but he did not care 10 waste
time on his examination and yolun-
teered the information that he would
not convict man upon circumstantial
evidence. He was accordingly excused
by the court.
George w. Proctor looked very ia
vorable as the twelfth Juror for some
time, and was passed For cause by both
the defense and state, but Mr. Elchnor
used the ninth peremptory challenge
for the state and excused him. The
Juror stated he had formed an opinion
but could easily lay It aside as II had
already been changed and weakened
until he had practically no opinion at
all. He passed the question OF revela-
ton satisfactorily to the defense. and
was sound as far az the state was con-
cerned on the matter Of capital pun
ishment and circumstantial evidence.
The point which caused his excuse
upon the states peremptory challenge
was his statement to the effect that
his opinion had been weakened by read
ing about the revelation Of Mr. Sharp.
He said he didn't believe II and reading
about It so much had weakened his
opinion Upon that statement Mr..
Eichnor passed him for cause and then
used his ninth peremptory challenge In
order TO excuse him
George W. Stevenson, Devid NJ Nay

on the ground of implied bias and the

The governor abandoned his pro-
