The OUTLOOK.

John Paul Jones. The United States
is at last to do tardy justice to the
memory Of John Paul Jones who was
the founder Of the American navy. He
was brave sailor fighter in the Revo-
luton and died and was buried in
France in the old St Louis cemetery.
Ambassador Porter has become inter-
ested in finding his body and at his
own expense has been digging in the
old cemetery to find his grave. He
has at last succeeded he believes, and
now it Is hoped that the Government
will send q warship to France to bring
home the remains of this illustrious
naval hero. The place of his grave was
for q long time in doubt and the way
that they were able to tell that they
have the right body is as follows: The
coffin is shaped like mummy coffin,
which collins were common at that
period, widening from the feet to the
shoulders, with round top fitting
over the head. The coffin was taken
to the medical school, where Drs Capt.
tan and Papillaut, distinguished pro-
lessons Of the school of anthropology
and recognized authorities on such
Investigations, were charged with
making thorough examination for the
purpose of identification. To facilitate
this the ambassador furnished them
with portraits and media lions, two
busts by Houdon and authentic
descriptions of the color of the ad-
miral' s hair and the measurement of
his body. After the most minute ex-
animation, the following facts we're
fully substantiated: Length of body,
five feet seven inches; the admiral IS
exact height. Size and shape of the
head agree with several peculiarities
identical With the head of the admiral
Hair dark brown, the same as the
admiral's, in places slightly gray, indi-
eating person of his age, As years.
The hair is long, reaching below the
shoulders, and is combed back and
gathered in clasp at the back of the
neck. The face is clean shaved, cores
ponding exactly with the descriptions
portraits and busts of the admiral.
The linen is in good condition. One
article bears an initial, either 81" or
an inverted "P." The body was care.
fully packed. The limbs were wrapped
in tinfoil presumably for sea trans
portation, as indicated IN a letter OF
the admiral's nearest friend and a pail
bearer at his funeral, Colonel
Blackden, who said: Ellis body was put
In a leaden coffin SO that in case the
United States, which he had so essen
TALLY served, should claim his remains,
they might be more easily removed.
Finding that all the internal organs
were singularly we'll preserved the
doctors made an autopsy, which
showed distinct proofs of the disease
from which the admiral is known to
have died. The Identification was pro
nounced complete in every particular

MYSTERY IN DEATH

New York, Nov. 6.--Arthur ]. Clark,
formerly manager for Henry w.
Savage, the theatrical man, and recent
ly engaged in staging "Thc Ginger
bread Man." was found dead in his
bed in the Hotel vendome today. He
had been shot through the head, from
the left to the right temple. The pis-
tol was in the room near the bed.
Coroner Brown, after hasty examina-
tion said: The circumstances sur
rounding the case are so peculiar that
it warrants a close examination. |
am not saying Clark was murdered,
| simply say the case is one of the
most peculiar | have had for a long
time"
Clark left mot letter or note. He
had been in a cheerful mind when he
retired last night. He had made sew
eral appointments for today and his
friends said IL he committed suicide
it must have been the impulse of an
insane moment.
Walter Andrews, porter, found
Clark lying in bed, the covers over
him.
The left temple, where the bullet
entered. was powder burned, indicating
that the weapon had been held close
to the flesh. Clark's friends say he
was not left handed. The pistol was
IL feet from the bed. The police said
1t would have been possible for Clark
to have thrown the weapon there.
Clarks mind is believed to have
been temporarily unbalanced through
his troubles with the piece he was
staging. He had had two or three
men promise to back the enterprise
but it was said they failed to carry
out their promises.

Federal Investigation Of
Life Insurance Methods
To Be Urged by Presi-
dent Roosevelt, Soon.
Congressional Commit
tee May be Appointed
as tlae Result Of Start
ling. Exposures Made.

New York, Nov. G.-That there will
be federal investigation of life in
surance and insurance methods and
that President Roosevelt is taking an
active interest in the matter and will
in all likelihood at an early date ask
for the appointment of a congressional
committee to take up the work was
learned today from an authority the
value of which cannot be questioned
The inquiry will be conducted inde-
pendently of the State Legislative COM
mittee and in spite of any results
which may follow the committees re-
port. 1t is declared that the revela-
tions and the many startling disclos-
ures brought out by the state board
have been the incentive which has led
President Roosevelt ana others of his
advisers to take UP the question of
a federal inquiry.
President Roosevelt has already con-
sidered tho matter and has during the
last two or three weeks frequently
been in conference with men promi-
nent in the insurance world. 1t IS
known that Paul Morton, head of tho
Equitable Life Assurance Society. was
in Washington yesterday and may
have had conference with the presi-
dent.
In spite of the fact. however. Mr..
Morton declared that he knew nothing
of 1t. To a reporter he said Now
who in the world could have told
you of that? Who had authority to
give you that information?"
What the points to be dealt with in
the federal inquisitionare have not
been made known nor is it believed
that President Roosevelt's ideas have
taken any definite form. It was whis-
pered in Wall street today that Nor
toms visit to Washington yesterday
was in the line of giving the prssi-
dent some inside Information concern
ing the proposed investigation and
that he might even have been summon
ed there. Mr.. Morton would not say
whether this was a fact. nor would
he consent to be interviewed.

Testimony of Detective Grim in the
Kenyon College Fraternity In
itiation Crime-The Cor
oner's inquiry.

Mount Vernon. o., Nov. 6.-Detective
Cal Grim, of Cincinnati, has been used
by Prosecuting Attorney Stillwell to
gather evidence in Gambler and Mt.
Vernon against the men believed to be
guilty of causing the death of Stuart
rierson, the Kenyon college student,
during Persons initiation into one
of the college fraternities. Grim tes-
tilted before Coroner Scarborough to-
day. He has furnished the coroner
with the names of men VINO can tes-
tify to circumstances discriminating
certain individuals already under sus-
picion.
Detective Grim testified that he
viewed the body of Pierson in Cincin-
natl and that the marks on the ankles
and wrists were from ropes and indi-
Gated that Pierson had been tied to
the tracks with a rope.
Prosecutor Stillwe;i considers this
the most important testimony brought
out in the coroner's inquest. Evidence
has been brought forward which shows
that it is part of the initiatory rite
to order the candidates to PROSTATE
themselves, blindfolded at the order of
their tormentors In at least one case
that of Paul Barber, of the Zeta AL
pha fraternity, this ceremony was car
ried out on the railroad bridge.
The authorities have not yet pro-
cured positive evidence that the boy
was tied, though according to their
statements they have had until now
no doubt that this was the case. But
now, with evidence as to the custom
mentioned. and with the positive
knowledge that the lad was lying pros
trate, face downward when he was
struck, they regard 1t as not only
probable but almost certainty that
he was ordered to remain in the center
of the bridge until the whistle of the
returning train at ten o'clock should
be heard, that the special engine
rounding the curve at a mile minute
gave the Initiating party no time to
rescue him. that blindfolded, he could
not escape himself and that as last
chance for life he remained between
the rails in the hope that the train
would clear his body.
