ADAM, MELDRIM & ANDERSON CO., The American Block. BUFFALO, N. Y The John Kohn Case. The Clearfield Republican of last week says: "The John Rohn mystery promises to eclipse all former mysteries in these parts. Since the day he is said to have walked out into the woods. April 6, 1899, nothing has been seen or heard of the man so well known from Kar thaus to Lock Haven. "Reasons of all kinds are advanced to explain why John Rohn is not to be found about his home, but the most logical reason, the one advanced by the best men in the neighborhood, the reason which can be bolstered up by a large amount of circumstantial evi dence, is that John Rohn was fouly murdered by some person or persons who expected to benefit in some way by his death. "Down on the Karthaus hills stories, seemingly well authenticated, are cir culated regarding the domestic ref lations existing in the Rohn family which tend to show that several per sons might be implicated in his disap pearance. "All the people in that locality know that John Rohn always carried large sums of money on his person and always kept a good sized bank account. It was known that he intended to pay out several thousand dollars the week following his disappearance. Neither this money nor any of the papers ! known to be in Rohn's possession at j the time of or shortly before his dis ! appearance have ever turned up ex- I cept a Pennsylvania Railroad voucher I for §l5O, for ties furnished, which was presented to the Clearfield National i Bank for payment by Dr. F. S. Nev ling, of this place. Payment was re fused by President A. P. Powell, of the bank, on the ground that the voucher was not properly endorsed. "Dr. Feveling says the voucher was | given him by Mrs. Uohn in part pay ment of a bill for medical services rendered. Mrs. Rohn in explaining the voucher says her husband, a few days before his disappearance, took it out of his pocketbook and handed it to her son, who was going to Lock Haven to have it cashed there. The young man went off and forgot it, leaving it lying on the organ in the parlor. No one however, explains, why John Rohn did not endorse it be fore handing it to his son. It is not explained whether or not the son had authority to endorse his father's name or if he had why the voucher when presented by Dr. Nevling for payment at the Clearfield National Bank, was so bunglingly endorsed. "It is also known in the community that certain persons talked of taking out letters on John Rohn's estate although the law provides that a man | must be proven dead or proven absent j seven years before letters can be | granted to anyone. "Several officers have worked on the | case and each claims he has dug up plain clues, but the main thing is yet ! undone—the finding of the body or j enough of the body of John Rohn to 1 satisfy the law that he is dead. "If the body of John Rohn is found several arrests will be made imme diately, but until that time the sus pected parties will continue to breathe free air. SPECIFICS CURES ( FEVERS.
