ternal hemorrhages.
The death is surrounded by sorrow
full circumstances and only a small ac-
count book was left by which any
knowledge could be had of the life of
Mr.. Appel. and many Of the entries in
this book were made when the man
was desperately sick, and no doubt he
was conscious of the fact that he might
not survive. On several leaves of the
book was written the fact of his birth,
which took place April 81. 1858, in ST.
Clair township, Columbiana county,
Ohio. This fact Is written repeatedly.
On one page he writes that he came to
Eddyville May TO- 1880.
He was very reticent about his fam
lily connections or his early career in
life and there seemed to some mystery
surrounding his history. At one time
he said that his parents We're dead.
Once he spoke Of an uncle, but that
is the only relative that has been
heard from and he may long since have
died.

allegations in the joint petition, in
which 100000 damages are asked are
nearly the same. Mr.. Saunders

Dubuque, Feb. s.--A sensation prob
ably unparalleled in the history of Du-

urday before Judge O'Donnell when an
affidavit was submitted signed by Ju-,
ror Alex Moriarity, declaring that he
had been subjected to undue influence
while sitting as juror in the case Of

that he was approached by Thomas #.
Phillips, ex-sheriff of Dubuque coun-
ty, in a saloon, and that he permitted
Mr.. Phillips to talk to him about the
case, and that he remained in the sa-
loon from $3.50 O'clock Monday night
until after l a. M, during which
time Phillips requested Moriarity as a
personal favor to him to hold out for
the company and not assent to a YER
dict in excess of $500.
