TEMPERANCE FOLK WIN
Isaac K. eooden Withdraws AppIiea.
ton For Liquor License in
Open Court.
Special to Tho Evening journal.

Dover, May 11.--A long-stsnding
conflict between the forces OF tenn
perance and those Of the licensed sa-
loon was settled yesterday by the
withdrawal in open court OF the ap-
plication of Isaac Kline Gooden, for a
license for the large Alsace Hotel re-
Gently built by him at Wyoming.
This application, which was met by
a remonstrance from the Women's
Christian Temperance Unions Of Cam
den and Wyoming. and which brought
the entire membership OF these unions
into court. has been pending for nearly
two years and has attracted wide
spread interest.
Another spirited contest has been
waged over the re-llcensing of Ches-
ter W. iBlderbach to sell liquor at
Bowers Beach, and the judges OF the
Court of General Sessions today fixed
Thursday next as the time for hear
ing. the contest. George Nj. Jones,

back one and a half inches from the
spine. Several holes were found in
tho clothing, but beneath them the
body was found intact. The right
hand was found to be missing and
was probably borne away by wild
beasts A white pearl button which
could not have belonged to the muir
dered man was found near.
Detectives on the scene made care
full examination Of the pistol, finding
1t to be n Smith & wesson. Two car
tridgcs were on either side OF the
hammer, but the chamber under the
hammer contained an empty shell, as
we'll as the two lower chambers. A
loaded cartridge Of 30 ealiber was
found seven feet from the body. Many
articles in his pockets were found in
tact
At the conclusion Of the inquest It
was decided that nothing further could
be gained by holding the body here
longer. Consequently the special train
which brought the brothers OF the
dead man, physicians and detectives
TO the scene left early today

yestigation. following the verdict Of
the coroner's jury.
II was stated by persons close 70 the
Wentz boys that the question Of re
ward will be settled as to the amount
and time OF payment after the verdict
is rendered. The terms Of the stand
ing offer OF the past month are said 70
be a suitable reward" instead OF a
specified amount.
The most intense excitement pre-
walls, and at the inquest there were
300 people gathered. There is a great
difference Of opinion as to the cause OF
Vents death, whether accident, sui
eide or murder.
What is regarded as the most proba-
/ BILE theory is that young WentK was
the victim Of m9onshiners. It is known
that a band Of these men cherished
enmity toward him on account Of the
killing Of their leader by Chief Of Po-
lice King Of Stone Gap only few
weeks before the disappearance Of Mr.
Wentz. The moonshiners were raided
by King and his posse In accordance
with the wishes Of Mr.. Wentz, who
was determined to break up moon
/ shining on the premises Of bis cOmpa'
ny, because it was seriously interfer'
ing with faithful service by the com
pany's employees.
