The friends of John f. Murphy,
whose dead body was found in the
front stairway Of the Green hotel
early yesterday morning. are not sat
isfied with the verdict of the cor
oner's jury, which found that Murphy
came to his death by accidentally
falling down stairs and breaking his
neck. They claim that the mysteri'
Gus circumstances surrounding the
finding of the body warranted more
searching investigation than that
given by the jury.
The body should have been care
fully examined by a skilled surgeon
for the purpose OF ascertainlng the
true cause of death. DR.. Cutter, the
Santa Fe surgeon, examined the body
Immediately after 1t was found, but
DR.. Cutter only examined the body
for the purpose of ascertaning
whether or not life was really ex'
tinct. The doctor testified at the
coroners jury that he accepted the
statement that the mans neck was
brdken, which was made by Mrs.
Bailey, who first found the body, and
said that she thought that the neck
was broken because when she lifted
the head II turned easily from one
side to the other. The doctor stated
that he did not even examine any OF
the wounds on the dead mans head
He felt for the pulse and looked into
the eyes and was satisfied that life
was extinct.
In viewing the corpse at A. Bor
ders' undertaking parlors, some OF the
jurymen did not so much as examine
the wounds on the face, though II
seems that pure curiosity would have
prompted such examination. one
side of the face was literally a mass
of bruises, while the nose bore an
abrasion across IT, and there were
several peculiar little scratches under
the chin on the neck. The wounds
on the face were sufficient to warrant
a careful examination. They may
nave been caused by the contact OF
the face with the floor, but not likely
and some Of the dead mans friends
are loath to believe but what Murphy
met with foul play, and there seems
to be ample grounds for their sus
picions
Murphy Seen at 2:30 a. m.
There is also much reason to doubt
the theory that Murphy staggered or
the landing of the stairs and fell tc
his death, because ne was deprived oi
his faculties through the effects o
too much liquor.
At 2:30 o'clock yesterday morning
Murphy was in the Hot Riyet salooI
on South Second street, in company
with Pat Casey, a bOilermaker. A
Trossello, the proprietor OF the Ho
Rivet, said that Murphy and Casey
were drinking in his place between 1.
and o'clock, and that they lef
shortly after, when he told them thai
he was going to close up. Casey wai
the drunker of the two. Neither o
them staggered.
Casey was seen this morning at the
Ruby house on South First street
where he has a room. He said thai

Rivet on Thursday night and cary
Friday morning with Murphy. and
that they left the place tOgetne,

thinks, went home, but he doesn't re

DID MURPHY REALLY DIE
FROM FALLING DOWN STAIRS
Dead Mans Friends Say That COrOners Inquest
Was Not Searching EnOueh.--victim Was Not
Staeeerine Drunk at 2:3O O'Clock.

Murphy had told him that his check
had "sinker" on it, and that he had
no money. (Sinker means garnish-
ment)
Frank Fraccaroli, who conducts a
saloon at the corner of South Sec
ond street and Atlantic avenue, one
block from where Murphy was found
dead, says that two men left his
place about 1880 O'Clock Friday morn
ing. both going to the Green room
ing house. One was E. Murray. a
pipe filter at the shops. and a good
friend of Murphy's. Murray is the
man who loaned Murphy the silver
dollar, which was found in his pock.
ct the morning he was found dead.
There was no obstruction in the stair
way OF the Green hotel when Murray
turned in for the night at 1870
O'Clock.
Mrs. j. d. Torlina, who resides di'
rectly across the street from the
Green hotel, is among those who be.
lieves that there was something un.
usual about Murphy's death besides
the fact that he fell down stairs. Mrs.
TOrlina says that she was up about
2 o'clock Friday morning and heard
loud talk in the street below. She
remarked at the time that 1t sounded
like drunken fight was taking place.
1t was the night after pay day, and
there always had been a large amount
of drunken talk in the neighborhood
in which she lives, on such occasions

PRESIDENTS FAVORlTE PLANS

New Orleans, La, Nov. 1S.-"The
proposal is dangerous" said Prof.
Hugo r.. Meyer, of the University OF
Chicago, addressing the New Orleans
board of trade yesterday on the sub
ject of rate-fxing by the interstate
commerce commission, because the
commission would use the power in
such a way as to precipitate great
conflicts between sectional interests
and class interests. 1t is revolution
airy, because the commission would
use that power for the purpose of
curtailing that freedom to trade over
and throughout the entire territory Of
the United States that it was the
purpose of our forefathers to establish
and guarantee when our forefathers
established the United States. 1t is
revolutionary because it would make

The development and the progress
of a country" declared Prof. Meyer,
in conclusion, necessarily implies
constant changes in the course of
trade, constant shifting of the centers
of agricultural and mineral produc-
ton, as well as constant changes in
the seats of the manufacturing indus
tries. The building up of values at
one point necessarily often means the
impairment of values at another point.
The only thing that can be done un-
der the circumstances is to effect the
best compromise that can be effected
And upon that point the verdict of all
experience is that if one would avoid
stagnation and retain that elacticity
which comes from. the free and unfet
tered play of the forces of trade, one
must so far as possible keep the
state out of these compromises
leave these compromises in the field
of trade and commerce"

OLD ENGLISH COURT SCANDAL IS
REVEALED AND ITS EFFECT HERE

but there Is nothing, apparently, to
indicate that the question has been
settled 1t has long been reported
that there was actually a male child,
but that this child emigrated 10 the
United States and settled in Wash
ington, where he died some years
ago. after living very quietly, but in
good circumstances
The marriage with Mrs. Fitzherbert
was not only morganatic, but, if il
had been admitted at the time, IL
would have disqualified George from
ascending the throne. Under the act
of settlement, passed in the days of
the Stuarts, the heir to the throne
was forbidden to marry a Roman Cath
Ollie, on penalty of forfeitng his right
OF succession. But It could have had
no effect upon Queen Victoria's right
to the throne, as she succeeded her
uncle, William w, by direct descent
from her grandfather George Ill, and
not through George w., at all.

will be given the full right to vote

At the bottom of the question Is a
fear of the Jews on the part of the
Slavs The people of Russia know
that the Jews are as class, the best
educated people in the czars domin-
ions, and If allowed to participate in
national legislation, will dominate the
situation by sheer intellectual weight.
The weapons with which the Jews
are to wage their own wars for inde
pendence, are not those with which
the rest of Russia has downed the
bureaucracy. They are weapons OF

London, Nov. IS. - BY the opening
Of a bundle of yellOwed and faded
papers for seventy years deposited
with Coutt's bank, a highly interest
ing bit of the most intimate chron-
ique scandaleuse Of the British court
has become public. The bundle OF
papers had been inuusted to Coutt's
bank seventy years ago by Mrs. F1tz-
herbert whose maiden name was
Maria Anne Smythe, under the CON
dition that il was not to be opened
for a long time. II was suspected
that the bundle contained many i'm
Dortant papers, bearing upon the re-
iations between Mrs. Fitzherbert and
King George ", and il was considered
necessary to obtain the permission OF
King Edward before the bundle OF
documents was opened. King Edward,
although informed OF the probable
character of the papers, did not hesi-
tate 10 give his consent, and in the
presence of a number Of interested
persons the parcel was opened. II
contained the marriage certificate and
other indisputable proofs that George
Nv was actually married TO Mrs. F1tz'

San Francisco, Cal, Nov. 1s.-The
recent disclosure that the marriage

keen interest in this country, and par
ticularly in California, for the issue,
a son, who adopted the name OF
James Ord, whose right to royal
paternity has been proved, became an
American citizen, and was for a time
a resident Of this state. The late Gen

1t is an interesting fact that Prince
ton has not scored on Yale by steady
rushing for nine years, blocked kicks
and fumbles or goals from the field
having been the sources of Prince
tons points. In 1896, Princeton push
ed Yale all over Manhattan Field; in
1897 the Tigers did not score; in 1898
they scored once on Poe's long run,
in 1899, they scored twice, one after
Reiter's end run had carried the ball
inside Yale's 5-yard line, and the next
time on Poe's drop kick; in 1900 they
scored once on a field goal; in 1901
they did not score; in 1902 they
scored once on DeWitt's long run on
a blocked kick and the second time
on a place kick; in 1904 they did not
