are coming to light. and operatives
from Scotland Yard declare the crime
one of the most brutal in English
criminal annals.
A large force of men with Crap

Regents canal in the hope of finding
the missing head feet and hands OF
the slain woman, together with other
portions of the flesh from the torso.
Some fthe detectives. however. be-
lieve the bones were dissolved in
vat of sulphuric acid.
The hendish intelligence with
which the crime was committed and
the proof OF murder wiped. stamps
whoever did the deed as an abnorm-
ally acute criminal, the police say.
They point out that Dr. Crlppen's in
itial stories of his wifes hurried trip
to America and her subsequent death
there were sufficiently we'll told and
so skinfuuy fabricated that the muir

RAINS DAMAGE
COUNTY ROADS

County Engineer James Wilson re-
ported to-day that the storm Of Satur-
day night and also the two preceding
storms had worked serious loss to the
roads throughout the county and some
of them We're badly i'm need of repair.
Where the roads had been dragged
scraped and rounded up the rain did
not do so much damage but on all
other roads where repairs had been
neglected because Of the scarcity of
labor the damage done was consider
able.
In speaking on the question of labor
County Engineer Wilson said that il
is next to impossible to get men to
work on the road. Farmers are paying
81 a day and board for men to har-
vest and even at that wage the farm
ers are having trouble in getting suf-
ficient help to get in the crops. For
this reason no labOrers are obtain
able for road work and in consequence
the roads must suffer.

WIN IN
STRIKE CONFERENCE

BY United Press Leased Special Wire.
PHILADELPHIA, July 19-With the
points in dispute between the train
men and conductors of the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad and their general man
ayers now settled there remained to-
day to be arranged the practical sys-
TEN along which the agreements
reached may be worked out. Accord
ing to w. G. Lee, president Of the
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, the
conductors and trainmen will be
greatly benefited by the concessions
granted by the railroad company in
placing in effect the New York Cen
trail standard. He maintains that un-
der the new system. il will be possible
for the men to make twice as much
money as before.
At meeting Of the subcommittee
representing the conductors and
trainmens organizations this morning
President Lee told the members of
the committee that il they found any
point during their adjustment confer
ences with the railroad officials upon
which they could not agree he would

derstanding.
The principal point won by the men
in the struggle was the establishment
by the railroad OF a l0-hour 4ay as a
minimum.
The kernel of the dispute was
whether OF not ten company would
pay for a ten-hour day what it now
pays for an eleven-hour ray, namely
S4.04 The company refused TO dc
this. but agreed to pay 1888 for a
ten-hour day, allowing all higher
rates for longer days to stand as they
are now. This was the principal
bone of contention, and according "a

railroad working conditions.
By the terms of settlement the COM
pany is to effect a change from the
trip to the mileage system, men now
holding high runs are to be protected,
the short-trip minimus of six hours
is TO be abolished and the ten-hour
day Established, and the men are
guaranteed twenty-siX days work a
month.
The uainmen's leaders explained
that the misunderstanding" which
existed and which almost resulted i'm
a strike concerned the ten-hour day
demand They declared that Tho
company misunderstood them ana
that they never fought TO obtain $4.0I
for a ten-hour day. They declared
that all they desired was the consent
