SUCCESS CROWNS
IA LONG SEARCH
BODY OF PAUL JONES IS FOUND
IN PARIS.
HAS BEEN FULLY IDENTIFIED
Remains Of Famous American Adj
miral Well Preserved-Will Be
Brought to America for
Appropriate Burial.

Paris, April 10. = The remarkable
search which Ambassador Porter has
conducted for the body of Paul Jones
has been crowned with success by the
discovery of the body and it's identified
ton Friday by the highest French med
ical experts as unquestionably that of
the famous American admiral who
founded the American navy.
Hundreds of wooden caskets were
found, but not until Wednesday were
unsarthed four leaden caskets which
gave promise of containing the body
of the admiral. Three of them bore
plates designating the names of the
deceased. The fourth showed superior
solidity of workmanship. No plate was
found onsthis casket and it is supposed
1t was removed when another coffin
was superimposed on it.
Remains Well Preserved.
The leaden coffin was opened in the
presence Of Gen. Porter, Col. Baily
Blanchard, the second secretary of the
American embassy, and Engineer Weis.
who has been directing the excavation.
The body was found to be we'll pre-
served, owing to it's being immersed
In alcohol. 1t was wrapped in sheet
with a packing of straw and hay
Those present were Immediately strucl,
by the resemblance of the head to that
on the medallions and busts of the ad-
miral. AS was anticipated, no uniform
decoration or sword were found, as all
such articles had been accounted for
after the burial. The coffin is shaped
like a mummy coffin, which collins
were common at their period, widening
from the foot to the shoulders, with
round top fitting over the head.
Description Of Body.
The coffin was taken to the medica
school, where Drs. Captain and Papil
laut, distinguished professors of tn.
school Of anthropology, and recognized
authorities on such Investigations
were charged with making a thorough
examination for the purpose of identi
fication. To facilitate this the ambas
| sador furnished them with portrait.

Size and shape OF the Head x1FWl
with several peculiarities idsAuAl]
with the head of the admiral.
Hair, dark brown, the same as they
admlrals; in places slightly gray, In
dicating person of his age, 45 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 shavsn, all cor
responding exactly with the descrip.
tons, portraits and busts Of the ad-
miral. 4
The linen is in good condition. One
article bears an initial, either ~" Or
an inverted "P"
Finding that all the internal organs
were singularly well preserved the dee
tors made an autopsy, which showed
distinct proofs of the disease from
which the admiral is known to have
died. The Identification was pre-
nounced complete in every particular.
Care has been taken to keep the body
in its present state OF preservation.
1t will be placed in handsome caskst
and deposited in the receiving vault
of the American church on the Avenue
de L'Alma until the ambassador can
learn the opinion Of the government
concerning the most appropriate
! means of transporting it to the United
States and giving fitting sepulchre to
the body of the illustrious sailor whose
place of burial had so long remained
mystery.
Satisfaction in Washington.
Washington, April 15.-There II
genuine satisfaction among the ON
Gals at Washington that the untirinx
efforts of Ambassador Porter have
been crowned with success. ORcials
here followed his reports on the sub
ject with keen interest and think It
particularly gratifying that he was
able to bring his task to successful
conclusion before retiring from his
post. 1t is probable that a recommsn-
dation will be made to congress at It's
next session looking to his reimburse
ment. The remains Of John Paul
Jones are to be brought here and In
| tered in the national cemetery at Ar
lington and it is likely that the trans
fer will be made the occasion Of an
interesting demonstration. Last year,
at the time the search for the body
Of John Paul Jones was begun, MT.
Moody, then secretary Of the navy.
made the official announcement that il
the body were found, the government
would send battleship to France to
convey it to this country. 1t is not
doubted that Secretary Morton will
fulfil the promise then made. It is
said that in case it is decided to send
a squadron to European waters this
summer the body probably will be
brought on the flagship of this squad
ron.

THE BOOK TRUST Is HARD HIT
Right Of the Individual Business Man Ia
Reduce Prices IL Upheld by the Courts

New York, Aug. 10.-"A decision
has been handed down in the United
States Circuit Court by Judge Ray, in
the action of Charles Scribner q Sons
aud the Bobbs- Merrill Company
against r. H. Macy e. Co. for an in
junction to restrain Macys from sell
ing copyright books at less than the
retail prices fixed by the Publisher
A A3socation, which will have far
reaching effect on all trade combina-
tions," says the New York World.
Stephen II. Olin and ex Attorney
General w. II Fl. Miller appeared for
the complainants, and ex- Secretary
OF. the United States Treasury John
G. Carlisle, and Edmond Il. Wise for
Macys. Judge Ray gives sweeping
decision in favor of K. II. Macy e. Co,
Diminishing the complaint and severe
ly criticising the combination of pub
fishers and booksellers, which he
holds to be in violation Of the Sher-
man Antitrust Law.
Editorially the New York Journal
says-"The firm of K. II. Macy & Go.
rendered really great service TO the
public at large and to the business
interests of the community in their
fight against the Book Trust. The
Book Trust alleged it's right to forbid
retailers to sell books below a certain
price fiNed by the trust. Macy & Co,
acting in behalf of the purchasing
public, maintained in the courts, at
considerable expense, their right to
sell merchandise bought oy-them for
whatever price they pleased. The
case was heard before Judge Ray in
Isdor Straus and Nathan Straus,
partners, appearing under the firm of
Z. IL. Macy & Co., in behalf of the
public and the rights of the individual
business man. The thanks of the
public are due TO r. II. Macy & Co.
for the fight they made against this
particular form of trust oppression.
And still greater thanks are due to
Judge Ray for this excellent opinion,
in which he sustains the action of
Messrs. Straus appearing in behalf of
the public interests. 1t is to be
hoped that the get-rich- quick gentle
men who propose to get such money
from the public by making them
selves lords and masters of purchaser,
retailer and all others will take to
heart the lesson that is taught them
in the opinion quoted obove."
