AFTER HOCH.
Coroner LewIe Says The Chemical Analysis Will
 Determine His Fate.

Chicago, Jan 31.-Dr c. w. Lewke. coroner's physician, said to-day that he would ask for q continuance of the inquest dyer the body of Mrs Marie Walcker Hoch, whose death led to the revelations of the much.married life of Johann Hoch. The physician has not completed tI.e chemical analysis Of the woman's stomach and will ask for more time.
 "There Is possibility of the anal ysis amounting to something" said Dr Lewke. "The chemical analysis when completed ought b settle the question whether the woman died naturally or not. After I finish my work an expert will go over it and will give me a confirmatory report. All this takes time."
 Unless the physician finds some traces of poison in the woman's stom- ach hope of convicting Hoch of mur- der will be practically gone. There will, however. remain many charges of swindling and bieamy on which Hoch will be prosecuted. It will probably be two weeks before Hoch is brought back to Chicago, unless he valves ex- tradition.

BURPEE IN
 HARTFORD.
Gone to Boom Cow.
 ell and Carmody.
Many People Believe H e VIII Be Shouting for Bur. pee-Attorney O'Neill on Committee, Did Not Go.

Wire pulling for the judgeships of the district court was renewed today, and though it has been repeatedly de- nied by Judge Burpee that he is in the race. hardly a lawyer in town will be- lieve the statement. To-day Judge Burpee, as member of the committee appointed by the Bar association to present the petition to the governor for the appointment of Judge Cowell and Attorney Carmody to the judgeships, took the document to Hartford. Attor- ney O'Neill and the members of the committee did not accompany him, and this is rather strange unless it. was agreed between them, for they spent the forenoon examining witnesses in the LathrOp case. It has been said, and not later than to-day, that Judge Burpee is candidate for Judge Cow els shoes, and the fraternity here would not be surprised if the ap- pointees turn out to be Cowell and Burpee. A dispatch to a New York paper saying that Governor Roberts, who makes the appointments, will turn down Cowell for Carmody, is believed here by some lawyers to have been sent out as feeler in the interests of Judge Burpee.

 ment at Ra, brook.

Albany. \. Y.. Jan 31.-The first re. port of the state hospital for the treat nent of incipient tuberculosis. which vas established by an act of She lcgis. .ature at Raybrook. in the Adirondacks. vas presented to the New York State Iedical society to-day by Superintcn lent John II. Pryor. M. n. Although be institution has been open only since Tuly 1, 19CJ. indications point to com ,,ete success. or the eigbty-two pa. ients admitted. eleven have been dis. .harged as cured. Of the remainder i've has not been in the hospital long apough to justify any conclusions, nineteen have apparently recovered. lie disease of thlrty-four probably ar. ested and all the rest show improve rent.
 The law creating this institution md under which it has been in opera. ion for q period of six months,- says Superintendent Prior. .-seems to be sminentiy satisfactory. Ii contains many new features which have never before been tested. The requirements -- admission. and tine methods de. signed to limit treatment to incipieBi .ses on.y. will be adopted and tried 5y several other states in the near flu ture. Thus far it seems unnecessary ts advise any changes in the organic law

HE MAY DIE.
Man W orked Only Half Hour When He Received Per.
 haps Iatal IT rjuries.

\ stranger entered the yard of the office of the Waterbury Lumber X Coal Co this afternoon and asked job as teamster. There was no va cancy among the teamsters, but the fellow. looked like good workman and it was decided to put him to work at something else until an opportunity offered to give him a team. He com menced getting lumber out from be- tween the tiers of pine and while thus engaged one of the tiers tipped o,er and crushed him against the other pile, injuring him so seriously that 1t is feared he will not recover. Mir Hum. phrey said this afternoon that the man had not been at work over half an hour when the accident happened. An old lumberman, he said, ne CT would have been caught as he was, because instead of going into the nar- TOW space between the tiers and re- maining there while pulling out what he wanted he would have stood on the outside and reached in. He said that at least five tons weight of sawed lumber rolled over on him pinning him up against the other tier So ti"t hc lnouShl uc iuusl udNe Uccu fatally injured. The other workmen set to work picking the timber of him and did it as quickly as possible. but although they rushed things it took nearly twenty minutes to relieve him. When the pile was removed the man was bleeding from the mouth, nose and ears and was unable to tell his name.
 Dr Galley was summoned and after looking at the man he ordered him sent to the hospital. He was not asked any questions regarding his name or residence when he was put to work, but about o'clock the timekeeper would have been around and taken his name. He appeared to be about 25 years of age. He said ls was native oi Name md > just struck the town. Later it was learned the mans name is Foss.

The Hearing Was Begun In Judse
 Lurpee's lffc. 10 Day.

. The hearing of the Lathrop case was started to-day. 1t was executive ana tue s.ealesL care Was taken that none of the evidence should get to the public. The hearing was held in Judge Burpees once anu notwithstanding all the precau- tions taken to keep the evidence se- cret. 1t leaked out nevertheless and was sensational ill the extreme. The witnesses were seated near the w.n- dow, in order that nothing could be heard from the hallway. The tram soms were closet and bookcases were moved against tic glass uoOrs as q further precaution.
 The witnesses were business men. mechanics and men of more or less leisure. M
 The drift of the evidence was most ly relating to alleged relations be- tween Mir Lathrop and a Mrs Sidney Corey. who was grentcd divorce in the local superior court last fall
 It was testified sS that MT Latnrop was frequent visitor to this wOman's S residence. Sha then lived on East Main street, and that he used to take her carnage driving and give her wine suppers. Once or twice they had supper at place O., the Plank road kept at the time by Harry Batchelder, who keeps a saloon on Phoenix ave nue now. MT Lathrop also boucht a gold chain for Mrs Corey. according to the evidence, and bought her other things that appeal to woman's sense of adornment.
 The day Mrs Corey's divorce peti. ton was heard number of people ex- pecting to hear sensational develop. ments were in court. but Mir La. throws ',"me was not mentioned. Tn fact the hcaril ls was of most ordin. any nature. entirely free from sur. prises and sensations.
