CORONER HAS CLUE
Inquest Held and Several People Ex-
amlned But No One Is Being
Held by the
Police.

MADISON, Wis, Sept. 12-Follow-
ing the funeral of the murdered T.
year old girl Annie Lemberger, her
father, Martin Lemberger, was blunt
ly charged with knowledge of the
chlld's death by E. 1. Boyer, de-
tective- from Chicago. Lemberger an
swered stoutly that he did not know
any more about it or the circum-
stances than any one else.
The coroner's jury, after an inquest
from which all spectators, including
newspaper men, were excluded by
order of Judge Donovan and Coroner
Lynch, brought in a verdict that the
child came to her death at the hands
of unknown parties. Coroner Lynch
is said to be convinced he has a
clue which may lead to the arrest of
the guilty person or persons, but will
not divulge his information. No one.
SO far, is being held by the police.
The parents and brother of the
| murdered child and Mrs John A. John
son. neighbor, were examined at
length by the jury.
The Lembergers told the same story
which has often been repeated since
the child's disappearance. They stat
ed there had been absolutely no
trouble with the child and that they
were as much mystified over the
! taking away of their little girl as any
one could be.
Mrs. John A. Johnson, who resides

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Sept 12-The cur

threatened strike on the Illinois Cen

to issue a retreat order and announce
that their plans for obtaining recog-

The backbone of strike agitation on
the Illinois Central was broken when
the machinists refused to participate
in a waNkout order to enforce recog-

manded that a final answer be given
