THOROUGH INVESTIGATION.

nouncement was made that the
decomposed remains of an infant
had been found in the alley near
Mr.. ]. w. Coffey's blacksmith S
shop that it had been traced to a
room at the top Of the stairway
in the Marcum hotel, a room used
for the storage of vegetables and
furniture and known as number
seven. At the time the remains
were found much: fleeing of sur
prise and regret was manifested
on the part of everyone who
heard of the horribleness of the
crime and the open exposure OF
the nude remaids which seemed
to defy and ignore the detection
of it's perpetrator. Squire John
Eubank, in the capacity of cor
oner, began an investigation, but
the day was too far spent to Sc
cure such information as would
Justify the court in rendering a
decision, and as some of the most
important witnesses were absent
the investigation was postponed
until last Saturday, the 9th.
Promptly at nine o'clock the in
vestigation was again instituted
and in spite Of the vigorous effort
made by our County Attorney
and others to bring to light the
guilty party the jury retired the
following verdict:
1--WE, the jury summoned to
enquire into the death of the in
FAINT found in the alley near the
blacksmith shop of ]. w. Coffey
on June End, find that the infant
was thrown::into the alley from a
slop bucket by the hand of Char
ley Hancock, an employee of the
Barbee Hotel, and that he carried
the bucket..and infant from room
No. z in the said Barbee Hotel.
We are not able to determine
where the infant was born or
who it's mother, nor can we de-
termine how it!came to it's death
or whether it was still born. At
ter one weeks investigation dur
ing which time we have run
down and investigated every ru-
NOR that has come to our knowl-
edge, we are not able to form the
slightest idea as to who the guilty
party or parties.

BUFFALO, Sept. 26.-The Democrat

here, will, it is expected, nominate, ac-
cording to the consensus of opinion
heard on every hand, william X.
Hearst of New York, who already is
the nominee of the Independence
league, which he was instrumental in
organizing, on the first ballot.
With him it is claimed that the con-

Chanler of Duchess for lieutenant
governor and John S. Whalen Of Mon
roe for secretary of state. Both Mr..
Chanler and Mr.. Whalen are on the IN
dependence league ticket.
1t is asserted that this is as far as
the most radical of the Hearst dele
gates TO the convention will go in TAX

Messrs. Max and Louis Oppenheim,
at Achtel Stetter's, to over one hun
bred mechanics who were employed
in remodeling and finishing their new
store at 230 and 232 Market street,

head sat the members of the firm. At
ter the usual refreshments of the in

city assessor of Philadelphia, rose as
POSTMASTER, and during the evening
proved himself a master of the art.
One after another he introduced the
many newspaper men who were pres

responses were equally appropriate.
The occasion was also enlivened by
music, and the general good fellow
ship was an omen of success for the

John NJ. Herbert, President Of Chicago
and Carbonate Company, Gets sar-
castle Letter for Alleged Violation
OF Pledge.

Chicago. April with the declara-
ton that they would keep their mines
closed all summer unless relieved OF
some OF the alleged restrictions placed
upon them by the miners. members Of
the Illinois Coal Operators associa-
ton Tuesday by unanimous vote ex-
PEELED from membership the only
operator who SO far has signed the
scale with the United Mine workers.
In sarcastic letter sent TO John M.
Herbert, president OF the Chicago and
Carbonate Coal company. the opera
tors said he had violated his pledge
and by his conduct had weakened the
joint trade agreement movement by
submitting 20 the miners. Mr. Herbert
previously. however. had sent a letter
TO the association rendering his resig.
nation.
The association is determined 10
keep up the fight. Members OF the
executive board in each OF the nine
subdistrlcts were instructed 10 call
meetings OF their respective localities
during the week and keep up the
interest In the strike.
Say Ranks Are Firm.
The association will meet next Wed.
nesday In St Louis to canvass the
situation again and hear reports from
the subdistricts. The operators de-
clared that there were no signs OF
weakening In their ranks. and that Mr..
Herbert. the only member OF the asso.
citation who had signed was a candi-
date for congress and that HIS coal
mine was secondary consideration
with him
As an Offset 10 the desertion Of Mr..
Herbert the operators announced that

panies, had Joined with the association

Willing TO Arbitrate.
"The Illinois operators have not
changed their position one bit since
their last meeting here four weeks
ago" said Herman Justi. commissioner
OF the association. I'VE believed then
that we were placed az a disadvantage
In interstate competition, and we still
believe Il. Until these conditions OF
which we complain are removed there
can be no peace IN Illinois.
I'VE are still ready 20 submit our
case TO any fairminded commission "a

just one II IS not the advance In
wages we are opposing so much as
some OF the other restrictions which
are placed upon u.s."

70. while on the part OF the miners
there was no disposition shown to re-
cede from the position taken then.
The adjournment found both sides dis
couraged. all being of the opinion
that unless some unexpected situation
shall arise a long strike In the hard
coal region Is inevitable.
Governor Pennypacker OF Pennsyl-
vania Is bringing pressure to bear
upon both the miners and operators
IN the interests OF peace.
From the operators side the con.
ference with the miners was summed
up by George +. Baer. There was
nothing but talk. talk. talk" said Mr..
Baer. They all talked nj great
length without advancing one prac.
tical point They talked OF the brother.
hood OF man and they talked OF the
right of the working classes. but they
did not suggest single thing upon
which we could come into agreement
Mr.. Baer's version OF the conference
practically agreed with that told by
the miners. both admitting the dead
lock appeared absolute.
