GRAVEYARD OF FAKE, BODIES.
Fifty-Four Collins Indicated Baby
Farm, But Proved Surprise.

BALTIMORE, May 31.-A dog roofing
around the Rock Hill College property,
near Ellcott' City, brought to light box
which contained decomposed parts of what
was apparently the body of an infant.
Further investigation revealed other bodies
wrapped in muslin and similarly inclosed.
Investigators believed they were on the
track of a baby farm. The matter was
reported to the brothers, who conferred
with the state attorney and the Baltimore
police were called in. Detective Joseph
DouGherty, with the assistance of work
men, dug up tfty-four little collins.
Inquiry about the place fastened sus-
picion on Oliver Brown, colored, aged forty
five a resident of Elicott City who hau
done odd jobs about the town for years.
Detective Dugherty brought Brown to Bal
umore Wednesday night, and since then
he has been put in the sweat box, but al
ways refused to divulge anything.
Detective Dougherty was certain that he
had the right man, and that one of the
boxes had contained a dead body. He had
seen the little head and the imprint of
the arms and legs through the cloth in
which 1t was wrapped and determined to
keep close to Brown.
The detectives went over the ground with
the prisoner and showed him the boxes
and their contents, and still Brown main
tanned silence Finally DR.. l.. ellis Owings,
health officer of Ellicott City, and DIR. B. j.
Byrne were called in consultation. They
made a careful examination of the fifty
four boxes and their contents. Under their
post-mOrtem examination, the result of
which was reported last night, the dead
bodies of babes turned out to be pieces of
meat, fat and skins from hams and other
meat offa evidently collected from butcher
shops and garbage boxes. Each of the sup
posed bodies was surmounted with a rudely
formed head made of white soap. There
were marks for the ears, eyes, nose and
mouth, and the heads had strands of hu-
man hair on. them. Around the necks of Il
large number of the bodies" attached to
strings are small silver medals

BOSTON May 31-Seldom in the thirty

such a wealth of runners, leaperS and

1t is generally expressed that Dray of
Yale, after his world beating performance
over the high bar at the Harvard and
Yale meet two weeks ago, will set a new
mark for the pole vault; that Taylor, the
colored flyer OF Pennsylvania, will better
the time for the one-quarter mile; that
Shaw of Dartmouth or Darels of Michigan
may better the figures In the high hurdles,
and that perhaps Hubbard of Amherst
or Garrels may possibly accomplish the
low barriers in faster time than ever be.

half mile record may go by the board
and that for the mile also may fall; that
at least thirteen collegiate records are

and in all the field events. A certain num-
Der will qualify in each event, and the
