Washington. March 14.-Charles f.
Hagnor, for thirty years a we'll known
physician of this city and member of

held to the grand jury as the result OF
an inquest over the body, of the prema-
turely born baby of Mrs. Peter Blair,
found yeserday alive andt doubled up
in shoe box thrown into a garbage
heap in the rear of the house.
At the inquest yesterday a colored
woman identified Dr. Hagnor as the
man whom she saw place the box In the
can. Later admitting he was the man.,
he said he fully believed the child dead
at the time.
The physician at the hospital where
the child was carried, after being found
testified the babe was alive when re-
ceived, and the negro woman testified
the child was crying when she found 1t.
The coroner's jury in its verdict held
that "the child, which was born alive
and lived several hours died from hem
orrhage of the brain and that Dr. Hag-
nor, who attended at its birth, was gull
ty of ineXcusable neglect"

STRIKE ON AGAIN.
Freight Handlers Renew the Struggle
AZ Boston When Informed They
Would Not All Be Taken Back.

Boston, March 14.--With high hopes
prompted by the news that the big
strike which had prevailed for four
days had been r. ised by agreement be-
sands of men who had been idle since
last Monday made their way to their
usual places of employment early to-
day. While the team drivers and long
shoremen who had struck in sympathy
with the freight handlers found plenty
of work waiting for them, the laborers
at the railroad freight sheds We're dis
appointed in being told they would be
received as new men, AS this meant
only vacant places would be filed and
the pay only s1.65 per day, the freight
handlers withdrew for consultation. At
one or two steamship docks the same
conditions We're imposed upon long
shoremen. The situation sent the labor
men In haste to the state house for con-
ferences with Governor Crane and the
latter was prompted to call the rail-
road and steamship officials into con-
sultation, while the strikers We're urged
to be patient. Trouble was precipitated
at noon by the longslloremen, who We're
accusing their leaders of treachery in
not arranging for them to be taken
back in body, and said they would
renew the strike, and they again joined
forces with the freight handlers, who
were awaiting action by the officials of
the respective roads. In the face of the
threatening aspect of the matter strong
hopes were felt that a satisfactory SOL
ution would be reached by night.

purpose of celebrating the kings coro-

and illegal, and to be forcing the peo-
pie to pay for things they did not be-

Surprise was expressed that teeto-

motion, seeing the interest the king had
recently taken in beer making and
knowing also that gambling and horse
racing We're the curse of the country.
The motion for an appropriation was
carried by large majority.
