RIVER VICTIM
IS IDENTIFIED
Man Who Drove Team Over
board at PennSviIIe Was
Morris H. Russell
SALEM PEOPLE GIVE
HIM RESPECTABLE BURIAL

Word was received by THE EVEN
ING JOURNAL from Salem n. j., to-
day that the man who drove into the
Delaware river off the wharf at
Pennsville, n. j.. on January s, and
was drowned, has been identified as
Morris II. Russell, who made his home
in Wilmington. The Identification was
made by his sister, Mrs Bull, resi-
dent of Philadelphia. Her first name
or street address were not obtained.
Where Russell lived here was not
learned. His name does not appear
in the directory
Russell had a railroad ticket in his
pocket emitting him TO passage from
Wilmington to Philadelphia, and it
is supposed he was on his way from
Salem to Pennsgrove ~ j., intending
to cross the Delaware river on the
Ulrica and proceed by rail to Phila-
delphia. from this city, when he met
his death. In some manner he drove
off the pier at Pennsville The horse.
which had been stolen, was drowned.
Whether Russell had anything to do
with the theft of the team is not
known
Coroner Hitchner. of Salem coun-
~, ~ j.. said that the drowned man,
in his opinion, had been sandbagged,
judging from the condition of his
head
Despite the fact that Russell was a
stranger to them and under suspi-
cion. because Of having the stolen
carriage in his possession, the resi-
dents of Salem took compassion on
the man, and sufficient money was
raised to give him respectable
burial

GEN. DUPONT AFTER
SOUTHERN COAL MINES

The combination of 80 coal mines
in western Kentucky in one corpora
ton, to be known as the DUPONT Coal
Company, is the object sought by rep
resentatives of Gen. T. Coleman du-
POnt
His representatives have options on
IS of the mines, and are confident of
obtaining the remainder.
General DUPONT could not be seen
this morning but L. L. Durham, his
secretary, and Daniel Cauffiel, who
have just returned from Kentucky
where they have been looking after
the consolidation, we're seen by an
EVENING JOURNAL reporter. Mr.
Cauffiel declined TO say anything re-
garding the project except that Cen
eral DUPONT has had large coal in
terests in Kentucky for many years
and that the consolidation of the
mines is not a new undertaking and
that he was not prepared to say just
how many mines would be taken into
the new company.
