A PERSONAL PLEDGE,
Covering Every Bit of His Property,
Given by Governor Beaver
TO THE PHILADELPHIA BASKKRS
TVho Advanced the Money Necessary for the
Work at Johnstown.
BE HAS HO FEARS OP LOSS, THOUGH.
Chicago Contributors Want ItMalitd Flood Belief
Accounts.
"When Governor Beaver borrowed nearly
jlOO.OOO for sanitary work at Johnstown,
says Colonel Hill, he pledged his personal
property for its repayment The State
Board of Health, it is said, has authority to
set in such premises, and that the Board
vill undoubtedly secure the Governor.
Chicago contributors make another call for
an itemized account of the flood relief fund.
Colonel Samuel "W. Hill was seen yester
day by a Dispatch reporter, concerning
the work done by the State and Belief Com
missions at Johnstown. The reports of the
financial expenditures necessary to get
things into shape in that afflicted city, are
now nearly ready to hand over to the proper
authorities, and to be published in the re
port of the State at the proper time. The
reports will be very volflminous, and fiive
in detail every item of expense.
Considering the gigantic amount of work
that had to be done on the premises, the cost
of the undertaking is rather surprisingly
small. It was at one time estimated that
51,000,000 wonld not cover the sum needed.
Colonel Hill makes the following state
ment: Governor Beaver advanced funds to
pay necessary expenses and for relief, until
the Flood Belief Commission was fully
organized, to the amount of 591,158 03; this
sum was drawn from the relief fund. For
clearing rivers and repairing highways the
sum of S355.818 5G was expended, being ad
vanced by Governor Beaver.
A CAUSE FOE CEITICISM.
The fact that the Legislature had made no
appropriation to meet such an expenditure
of money has caused considerable specula
tion, and at times brought ont some adverse
criticism. It was also asked where Gov
ernor Beaver secured the funds ior Buch an
outlay, and whether the Legislature would
be disposed to make up the expenditure by
an appropriation, without some investiga
tion and a little hesitation. An explana
tion ot the procedure was given by Mr.
Hill.
"The reason why Governor Beaver did
not convene a special session of the Legis
lature," said he, "was because it would, in
the first place, involve an expense of fully
8500,000. Everv member would receive
mileage and $1,500, even though the session
lasted only one week. The Governor de
signed to have the work done as economically
as possible, as there had been heavy drafts
on the State treasury before the calamity
occurred, and when he went to the Slate
Treasurer he found there was .no money
there for that purpose. He, therefore, ex
ercised his police authority in the matter
and ordered tbe work to be proceeded witn.
In order to secure funds for this purpose he
went so far as to pledge his own private
property to obtain them. As the case now
stands, his whole property is dependent on
the next Legislature to make good the ex
penditure. OF SUTBE1IE POWER.
"The money, as has been stated, was ad
vanced bv Philadelphia banking people,
and whenever any money was needed
to prosecute the work" a requisi
tion was drawn on Governor Beaver.
Furthermore, the work was ordered by the
State Board of Health, and it must be un
derstood tbst its power is supreme in mafe
ters of that kind. The Board of Health has
power to direct the highest officials, whenever
a pestilence or any condition prejudicial to
the public health is threatened. It has
power to make any expenditure, and can
demand that the taxpayers make good thecost
oi the work. A pestilence Mas threatened
on account of the polluted condition of the
river and the bad state of the roads. By
going ahead with the work, as has been
done, much money has been saved, and
without the least doubt tbe Legislature will
make good the amount by an appropria
tion." Certain parts of the report are not yet
complete, but Colonel Hill is working on it,
and will have it ready before long. Much
trouble was experienced at first in trying to
determine just what expenses should be as
sumed by the State, and what by the relief
commission. The work of burying bodies
was at first taken hold of by the State, but
afterward the relief committee met and as
sumed the responsibility of this work. A
transfer of certain accounts and items then
became necessary, and delayed the comple
tion of the report somewhat.
The State has now withdrawn altogether
from the case, and the city authorities are
doing what they can to improve the place.
CHICAGO WANTS A FULL BEPORT.
Asking for tbe Poll Llt of the Johnstown
Contributors.
W. B. Thompson, Treasurer of the Johns
town Flood Belief Commission, yesterday
received a letter from the City Controller of
Chicago, asking for a copy of the printed re
port ot the contributors to the relief fund.
, Sir. Thompson replied that the report was
not out yet, but expected to have it in two
weeks.
The report is still in the hands of the
printer. Owing to the large number of cor
rections and additions, the work has been
greatly delayed. It is curious, but it is
nevertheless a fact, that contributions to the
fund are still coming in. Last month Mr.
Thompson received three small amounts
from people in the Northwest. It was
necessary to include these contributions in
the report.
Mr. Thompson is also careful to get the
name of each and every contributor in the
report. When the lists of contributors
were published in The Dispatch last sum
mer, a number of them were overlooked and
their names left out. The contributors
promptly wrote to Mr. Thompson, who had
to have a correction made. One man who
contributed 520 was apparently not satisfied?
until he saw it printed three times.
Mr. Thompson also received a letter yes
terday from a Mr. Herty at Johnstown, who
claimed not to have been treated properly by
tbe commission. He rendered valuable ser
vices to the commission in the payment of
claims. He was known as an "identifier,"
and on account of his knowledge of tbe
people of the town, he prevented a great
many frauds from being perpetrated. He
wants more pay for his services, but Mr.
, Thompson can see of no way of doing any-
thing for him.
GOOD FOE BOATING BDSINjSSS.
ZUrer Lines Securing Moil of the Frelsnt to
the Northwest.
Bumors have been flying around for the
last few days to the effect that there was
some cutting of freight rates being done on
the quiet None of tbe agents ot the freight
lines will admit that it is beidg done.
Shipments by steamboat to Chicago and
the Northwest are increasing, and all rail
freight seems to be suffering from the com
petition. Tbe rates asked by steamboat
lines are from 2 to S cents less than those
that are offered by the rail routes,
Tbe steamboat companies are intending
to build a small boat for the Allegheny
river to carry considerable local freight,
and the boat companies can make a large
cut in this kind of freight. Bates to South
western points are still low and the agents
here hare received a notification of another
cm of 8 cents to all common points in Texas.
THE POLITICAL FIGHT.
A Suggestion Meeting Without n Row In the
Sixth Word Itlienonr Nominated for
Council Chairman Foley to Reply to the
Chnlloneo To-Day.
A suggestion meeting was held in the
Sixth ward last night, and nobody was
hurt. The Republicans of the ward held a
suggestion meeting at the Forbes school
house that was remarkable for that ward in
its harmonious action.
The only objection of consequence raised
was that of M. L. Malone, who, by reason of
a sndden motion to close the nominations
for Councilmen, failed to get his man
named. He protested, and asked that the
nominations be reopened, being seconded by
H. H. Bengough. He then nominated Mr.
"John S. Bitenour. The candidates sug
gested were as follows:
For Common Council, John S. Bitenonr,
John Enrich and H. R. Newlin; School
Directors, J. V. Hoag, Jacob Buch, George
Jackson, H. L. Hoburg, William Martin,
S. B. Charters, S. J. Greer; Ward Assessor,
John Hamilton, Charles Fritz; Constable,
Michael Hughes.
Democratic headquarters were lively yes
terday. The wards are all being carefully
organized, but especial attention is being
given to the Southside and East End.
Chairman Foley expressed himself rather
forcibly on the Republican challenge for a
joint debate. He said: "It is a broadside
bluff, and I do not think that the public
generally will expect an actual response to
it. I do" not believe that the Benublican
committee expected an answer. My advice
is to make none."
The fight in the First Ward for the posi
tion of Alderman has been put in charge
ot Alderman Gripp, who is giving it his
personal attention. The Magistrate said
yesterday: "The contest is practically set
tled. 'Squire Cassiday's own friends
acknowledge that he is beaten."
Chairman Foley, of the Democratic City
Committee, was seen last night. He said he
had not as yet decided what he would do in
regard to the challence issued by the Be
publican Chairman. However, he said he
would write a reply to the challenge to-day,
but he declined to say what its contents
would be until after it had been formally
sent.
Mr. Gourley, tbe Bepublican candidate
for Mayor, spent the greater part of yester
day on the Southside, visiting the glass
houses. He reported at headquarters that
he had been well received, and that he was
satisfied that there would be a change on
the Southside from the Judgeship vote.
An adjourned meeting of the Bandall
Club was held last night. The committee
appointed to draft suitable resolutions en
the nomination of Judge Bailey reported.
The resolntions which were adopted set
forth the many good qualities of' Judge
Bailey and the alleged bad record of Mr.
Gourley.
A Bepublican suggestion meeting of the
citizens of the Twelfth ward, Allegheny,
was held last night. The following ticket
was suggested: Alderman, A. J. Brinker,
William Bay, Edward Klotz and William
Eisenbeis; School Directors, Edward L.
Hoffman, George Diftter, Julius Ludwig,
William Tncke and Thomas Matthews;
Constable, Bobert Hughey; Poor Directors,
Joseph Shaud, Jr., and A. Binder.
The Bepublicans of the Fonrth ward,
Allegheny, met last night and suggested the
following names lor the ward ticket: Alder
man, A. G. Neeley; School Directors, Lewis
Mendel, Peter Beiseck, Bobert Brooks,
William Green and B. C. Miller.
The Bepublicans of the Fifth ward, Alle
gheny,, suggested their ward ticket last
night. It is: Alderman, M. G. Clark;
School Directors, Charles W. Cochran, John
H. Dean and Dr. J.W. Dickson; Constable,
A C Stcnner, C. B. Wilson and Charles
Cookson.
The Tenth ward, Allegheny, Bepublicans
will hold their suggestion meeting in the
Charles street schoolhouse Wednesday even
ing next.
The Democrats of the Twenty-seventh
ward will hold their primary election at the
Monastery street schoolhouse to-night
DELAMATEE'S HOPE.
lie Says He Feels Cercnln Ho Can't be
Bentcn for the Nomination.
When Senator Delamater was in the city
ashrt time ago he remarked to a political
friend that he didn't care how the Alle
gheny delegation voted, that he would cap
ture the nomination anyhow. Then he
added:
"But if I do secure the nomination, as I
expect to, I want to secure the votes of all
the Allegheny county Bepublicans."
WORK OP THE STORM.
Sloppy Streets find Pools of Water to Ham
per 1'edeatrlans Cattle Cars Unroofed
on the Pennsylvania Road Some Dam
nee Reported in Other Places.
The average citizen chuckled to himself
yesterday morning as he saw the snow fall,
but about noon his joy began to waver, and
at night it turned to gloom. During the
day it grew warmer, and the snow turned to
rain. It came down steadily all evening,
making the streets sloppy and disagreeable.
On the crossings the snow dammed up the
water, and pedestrians were forced to wade
through the floods.
Strange to relate about midnight the man
in charge at Davis Island Dam reported
that the rivers were falling, but he wouldn't
vouch' for their condition this morning.
Like the fellow who spends his night in
drinking, they might be gloriously full,
though their capacity is large.
East of Pittsbnrg the storm became
furious. Toward evening the wind became
fiercer, and in the Allegheny mountains
trainmen on the Pennsylvania road reported
the weather as very cold and about six
inches of snow on the ground. All trains
were delayed, and the through ones did not
arrive until late last night. Between Derry
and Latrobe the roofs were blown off 12 cat
tle cars, leaving the poor animals exposed
to the cold. Trees fell across the telegraph
wires, but by hard work the men managed
to keep the two lines open.
The crew of the Yough express reported
that much damage had been done by the
storm along the Southwest Branch in the
neighborhood ot Dunbar and Fairchance.
On the B. & O. trains were also delayed by
the snow in the mountains.
Yesterday the Pleasant "Valley street car
line brought out their new sweeper for the
first time, and it did effective work in clean
ing the Streets.
The rough night knocked out about 50 per
cent of the usual receipts nt the various the

SECEETS OF MOUNDS.
A Very Interesting Chat With a Well
Posted Ethnologist.
DIFFERENCES IN ALL GROUPS.
A Critical Investigation of the Cobble
Mounds Kecessarj to
LEARX ANITEING OP TDEIE AGE.
llodern Ellrer Plates That Hire Been Found In Some
Each mounds.
Gerard Fowke, a noted ethnologist, for
merly of the Smithsonian Institution, and
a member of the Ohio Historical and
Archaeological Society, is at present in the
city, visiting friends. He is on his way to
Washington, to consult scientific author
ities on matters in which he is interested.
He has intimate knowledge of mound re
mains, prehistoric relics, etc., throughout
the country, and furnishes some very inter
esting information concerning them.
There is at present a gentleman stopping
in this city who has qnite a reputation in
certain scientific circles. His demeanor is
so quiet and unassuming, however, that his
presence would have been passed by totally
unnoticed if a representative of The Dis
patch had not by accident received
an introduction, and the name recalled
some of his notable achievements
in the line of work which he has been fol
lowing for many years. Gerard Fowke is
better known in the East and West than in
this vicinity, yet there are many who are
sufficiently" acquainted with him to
hear with interest of his presence
in our midst. Several years ago
he made an investigation archeologically
speaking of the Monongahela valley and
was much impressed by what he saw in
various places. His interesting opinions
concerning these, as well as other notable
remains, are best told in his own language:
NONE OP THEM ALIKE,
"I opened a number of mounds up the
river, and found, as is usually the case, that
every separate group of mounds differ more
or less in character from those of any other
locality. For this reason it is advisable to
open every mound, whether large or small,
carefully, as there is no telling what may be
contained in them. Tbe 'cobble mounds' up
the valley may or may not be ancient. A
conclnsiou can only be reached by a thor
ough investigation. Among theearth mounds
I observed a number of peculiar things. In
one situated on the hill above Monongahela
City I fonnd a well-preserved skull about
two feet below the surface, filled to reple
tion with snail shells. In several other
skeletons were unearthed which were ar
ranged different from any that have come
under my observation before.
"Begarding the age of these mounds, it is
somewhat difficult to say anything positive.
Many are certainly of great antiquity, while
others again are Known to be ot quite mod
ern construction. Some years since while
in Mississippi engaged in this work I
found a silver plate at nearly the
bottom of a mound which bore the
arms of Castile and Leon. This
mound was on the Tallahatchee river at a
point close to where De Soto, the Spanish
explorer is said to have spent an entire win
ter season. This would go far to prove that
the earth work referred to has b een erected
there since. Then there are mounds which
show undoubted evidence of having been
added too at various times. I have opened
a number showing five different layers of
earth, indicating as many diSerent epochs
of construction.
GEEAT CAGE NECESSftBY.
"In every case they should .be opened
with the most particular care, if scientific
results are desired. Under no circumstances
should a tunnel be bored horizontally to the
center ot the mound. If but one shaft is
made, it should be from the top downward;
but, better still, take the entire work to
pieces in sections, then nothing will be lost,
and if a record is to be kept of any remains
found therein, exact location can 'be noted.
This system should be pursued in every case,
as no mound is small enong'h to
be slighted. Some of the most valuable
relics have been discovered in earthworks
so small as to almost escape tbe observation
of the ordinary investigator. In small
mounds in Boss county I faund remains of
wooden houses, partially charred by fire, as
if they had been set fire to and then
the earth " thrown over them. Ohio is
a great country for mound remains
and Boss county seems to have been the
location of tbe densest population of the
people who constructed them. Many years
ago, Squier and Davis, the celebrated arch
aeologists, estimated the number of mound
remains in Boss at about 500. I have been
in that country very often in recent years
and think 1,000 would be nearer the mark.
The entire conotry in that locality is cov
ered with earth works,stone graves and relics
of all kinds.
KOT ENOUGH KHOWH OP THEM?
"It is a great pity that so many remains
of interest' are destroyed by persons who
have not the slightest knowledge of their
character. I must confess that I did the
same thing yeais ago, when Quite young;
but the knowledge gained then has been of
great value to me since in my researches.
Then there is another class who go about the
country rifling the mounds and other remains
for no other purpose than to dispose of their
finds to relic dealers in the East and else
where. This is a great wrong, but there
seems to be no way of overcoming the diffi
culty other than to put the work into 'the
experienced hands of men who will conduct
it scientifically, and place finds of value in
places where they will be of some value to
those interested."
Mr. Fowke is a native of Maysville, Ky.,
but during childhood has lived at various
towns in seven different States. He was a
student of the United States University, but
left it to accept a, position in tbe Smithson
ian Institution. He has been in nearly
every State of the Union since
his connection with that institution,
and has discovered many peculiar
and valuable remains and written a num
ber of books and pamphlets on the suoject
and its various phrases. At tbe present
time the Bureau of Ethnology have a lnrge
work of his in preparation which will in
clude several hundred illustrations. He
will remain in this city until to-night,
possibly longer.

BAILEY'S REPLY DISSECTED.
HE BEMGlOCSIiY DODGES THE
ISSUE.
The Democratic Candidate Ignores material
Parts of the Graff", Dennett & Co.
Record Mure Pertinent Ques-
tlons tor Illm to Answer.
John H. Bailey, assignee ot Graff, Ben
nett & Co., the nominee of the Democratic
party for Mayor of Pittsburg, published in
the newspapers of Friday his answer to the
charges against him in the Graff, Bennett &
Co. assignee matter and prefaces it with the
remark that he is expected to answer to the
public for every act of his life that-he is
prepared to do it and begs lor no quarter.
So be it. Mr. Bailey is hereby guaran
teed a calm, dispassionate discussion from
the records as to this matter that his answer
to the Mcintosh, Hemphill & Co. et al. bill
will be published, and that no assertion not
made by or fairly inferable from the record
will be used, and he on his part is expected
to fully and fairly answer such matter in
claim, unequivocal language acknowledging
as trne such as he admits and designating
specifically such as he denies.
One of tbe greatest and most serious alle
gations of record is that John H. Baijey,
assignee, petitioned the Conrt of Common
Pleas No. 2 of Allegheny county fora decree
authorizing and permitting him to sell at
public sale all the real estate of Graff, Ben
nett & Co., subject to certain incumber
ances only, and after due notice of the sale
that John H. Bailey, assignee, sold all of
the real estate above mentioned, including
tbe rolling mills, blast furnaces, steel
plants, factories, dwelling houses, etc , to
the "syndicate" for the sum of 525,050, a
grossly inadequate price and much less than
its actual value; that tbe said properties are
and were at the time of said sale worth at
least 5500,000 over and above tbe incum
brances subject to which they were sold.
And the bill prayed for (among other
things) the nullification and making void of
the sale and deeds thereunder for said prop
erties and for the appointment of a receiver
to enter upon and take possession of said
properties, such receiver eventually to be
ordered and directed to sell and expose at
public auction the said property for the
benefit and advantage of the creditors of
Graff, Bennett & Co.
And yet, Mr. Bailey, your answer is
most significantly silent upon this trans
action. Ton do not even deign to notice it.
Why?
Beferring to the personal property, you
sav, "No public sale of these effects was
po'ssible." Why? You say, "A schedule
would have given no information more than
could have been obtained from the inven
tory on file." At what did the inventory
value the "remaining assets?" Would the
total of the inventory 5652,605 94 less the
real estate, $350,000; viz., $302,605 94, be
the appraised value of the same If so,
was not 550,000 a ridiculously low price for
the same?
But most marvelous of all is your state
ment. "I could not ascertain their value be
cause I had no means of information that
was not possessed by the sworn appraisers,
who failed to learn the yalue of a great many
of them."
Does not this part of your answer empha
size the allegation that you were derelict in
your duty?
The reason you conld not ascertain the
value of the goods intrusted to you to dis
pone of is not apparent. They were tangible
property, a large portion of which, like pig
iron, ore, etc., had a market value daily and
honrly. Did you examine all of the assets
did you go into other counties
and States and look at and inspect the
property there? The syndicate had no
tronble in valuing it, for the record alleges
that it resold ontot the many items you thus
sold it for ?277,000 in a short time alter your
sale to it. You were appointed to learn the
value of this property; you were to sell it at
something like its real yalue; you disposed
of property alleged by the records to be
worth 5311,000 for 550,000 and defend your
action by saying you "could not ascertain
their value," thus admitting that you sold
at private sale, the assets of this company
for a certain sum at a time when you were
actually in ignorance of the worth of the
same would you so act with your own
property? i
Again you say: The "combination of
creditors" comprised three-fourths in amount
of the unsecured creditors, who tell me that
they solicited the others to unite with them.
The assets were not sold for 550.000, but I
have reason to believe cost the purchasers
$150,000.
You will admit you had no right to sacri
fice Graff, Bennett & Co.'s property. Then
what difference does it make whether the
"combine" included three-fourths or more
of tbe creditors? Ot what avail is this ex
cuse? Were you not bound to protect the
assignors (Graff, Bennett & Co.) and the re
maining one-fourth of the creditors?
And you have reason to believe the assets
cost the purchasers 5150,000, and they were
not sold for 550,000. Don't you know even
now what you sold them for? But if the
syndicate paid 5150,000 for 5341,000 worth
of property, and they have since sold eight
items for 5277,000, and have $119,000 worth
remaining, who got the worst ot the deal,
the syndicate or Graff, Bennett & Co. and
their creditors, even if said syndicate did
pay $150,000, as you have reason to believe?
Do you a lawyer and once a judge pre
tend to say that because an indebtedness was
against this property that no public sale of
the same could have been made or that you,
as assignee, could not have by selling some
paid off the indebtedness and' thus held the
balance clear? The records allege that the
syndicate has been marvelously successful
in this regard, and have sold item by item,
eight of the pieces of said property, and
have realized the handsome sum of $277,000
for the same. Are the fruits of these eight
items more than you realized from the whole
estate, real, personal and mixed?
The record also alleges that you were in
formed that you could sell the Connellsville
Coal and Coke property for $50,000 before
you sold to the syndicate, and you did not
do so, and that after your sale to the syndi
cate it sold to the sanieman this same piece
of property for $50,000. If they could and
did for this figure, could you not have done
the same?
Finally, was not one of the trustees of
this syndicate, who were the beneficiaries of
this deal upon which the syndicate hps al
ready realized so large a profit, your own
brother?

fit of the Strikers.
The grand benefit ball tender the auspices
of L. A. 2126, Knights of Labor, took
place last night at the Imperial Hall, new
Grant street. The affair was for the benefit
of the gripmen who are on strike against
the Fifth avenue traction line. Fully 800
gripmen and their friends were present, and
they enjoyed themselves hugely. It is sale
to assume that if the weather had been in
any way favorable the large hall would
have been inadequte to accommodate the
crowd which would have been present. A
worse night would have been difficult to
imagine, so miserably was the weather both
overhead and under foot. There were at
least 115 couples in the grand march which
was led by Mr. William Burke and Miss
B.M.Mullen. The General Manager pas
Mr. William Nash, and Committee ot Ar
rangements: D. L. Noon, J. J. Cox, Ed.

were well pleased with the affair. The ball
was a social and financial succesi, and the

A Peculiar Verse Written on a Scrap
of Paper Fonnd by the River.
SUICIDE IN EACH LINE, OP IT.
A Mystery Attached to a Heap of Old Clothes
Found by Mr. King.
THE WRITER'S IDEAS OP DEATH.
BaAden Disappearance of tbe Old Coat, Test and Bat-
tercel Hat.
An old suit of clothes was found lying by
the river at the foot of Twenty-first street
yesterday morning. Tucked in the band of
the old hat was a scrap of paper, on which
was written a few lines of doggerel appro
priate to a man's last act before consigning
his body to a suicide's watery grave.
Yesterday morning, about 7:30 o'clock, as
John C. Bung was walking along the ties of
the Pittsburg and McKeesport Bailroad, at
the foot of Twenty-first street, he noticed
among the shingles by the river side what
appeared to be a heap of clothes. Mr. King,
seeing no one in the immediate vicinity, felt
a little curious to know how the clothes
came there, and approached the spot. He
found a well worn and slightly ragged coat
and vest, together with an old battered hat.
On closer inspection he noticed a folded
sheet of paper stuck into the hatband. The
paper, which Mr. Kingsubsequentlyshowed
to a Dispatch reporter, was very dirty,
and had evidently been picked np on the
road. Upon it was scribbled a few lines of
verse, which, although mere doggerel, if
supposed to have been put together in a
hurry, might have been the work of an edu
cated man. The lines were as follows:
The river is wild and dark to-night.
And the shore lies hid from my acning sight;
But wilder still with their storms of pain.
Are my wounded heart and my throbbing brain;
And darker far is that gloomy shore
From whence my soul shall return no more.
Mr. King said that he was not much of a
jndge of poetry, so he put the paper in his
pocket and continued his walk. Turning
up Twentieth street, he met a friend a little
way down Carson street, and showed him
the' verses. Mr. King's friend suggested
the idea of suicide, and together they re
turned to where the clothes had lain, but
the clothes had completely disappeared.
Mr. King supposed that they had been
taken away by a policeman, and they
thought no more of the matter until he met
a Dispatch reporter yesterday evening.
The Southside police denied all knowl
edge of the clothes when questioned' last
night. Whether the owner of the clothes
leaped to a watery grave, or whether another
hand was guilty of the murder, it is impos
sible to say. Ho body has been found, and
the condition of the river prevents any at
tempt at search. The river is fairly deep at
the place where the clothes lay, and after
the heavy rain and snow of yesterday would
have easily drowned a man.
One curious thing about tbe verses is that
they bear the paragraph marks and mode of
punctuation used only by newspaper men
and other practical writers.

Messrs. F. J. Allen, of the Astor House,
New York, and D. AL Hildreth, of the
West End Hotel. Long Branch, formerly

city.
It is in the center of the largest business

Boy Covered with Scabs
My boy, aged nine years, has been troubled all
his life with a very bad humor, which appeared all
over hla body in small red blotches, with a dry,
white scab on them. LaBt year he was worse than
ever, being covered with scabs from tbe top of bis
head to his feet, and continually growing worse,
although he had been treated by two physicians.
As a last resort. I determined to try the CCTICUBA
Kemeoies; they did all that I could wish. Ihe
humor rapidly disappeared, leaving the skin fair
and smooth, and performing a thorough cure.

THERE IS NOTHING QUESTIONABLE
OR MYSTERIOUS ABOUT
... REDUCTIONS. ..
The little price tag attached to every garment tells the tale.
The figures marked thereon don't lie. Look at them. You will
find the former price crossed out and the present reduced price
written directly below it. No secret marks anywhere, but plain
figures only. A moment's glance at the price ticket will tell the
whole story, and tell it so eloquently and convincingly that you'll
not leave without buying. On many garments the extent of our re
ductions is simply amazing. THE QUESTION WITH US NOW
IS NOT WHAT A GARMENT IS WORTH, BUT WHAT IT
- WILL BRING. The customer practically buys goods at his own
price. But this cannot be helped. We are bound to turn our big
stock of Winter Goods into cash. You, who have the money in
your pocket, dictate your terms. We are bound to do your bidding
if we want to sell our goods and sell them we must.
THIS WILL BE JUST THE PROPER DAY TO BUY
BECAUSE some e best things will then be on our counters
yet, and you can just get what you want;
pCPAIICp hundreds of garments will be sold to-day that'll be
just the proper thing for present and early spring
wear;
DCQAUCC the best bargains are always captured by the earliest
callers, and, finally,
BECAUSE we ave ma(e special preparations for to-day to give
our patrons a really grand treat.
Our store will be open to-day, as usual on Saturdays, until 1 1
o'clock at night, and you can come in at any hour of the day and
