ANTON PROUST.
Post-mortem Examination of the Body
of the Murderer.
The body of Anton Probst, through the
courtesy of the Directors of the Prison, was
transferred to the Faculty of the .Tefferson
Medical College, for the purpose of making
scientific inquiries respebtlng the immediate
cause of death. For this purpose the body
was qnietly removed from the prison to the
college on the evening of Friday, the day of
execution.
The examination of the body was con
ducted, on the afternoon of the 9th inst., by
Dr. Wm. H. Pancoaat, Demonstrator of
Anatomy in the Institution, assisted by the
members of his anatomical staff, Dm. Jas.
Taylor, E. R. Hutchins and F.H. Andrews.
At 4 P. M.,precisely, the body, neatly
covered, was hered into the presence of
the assembled audience, and placed in the
centre of the amphitheatre, the most exact
decorum being observed. The lecture-room
of the College was filled to its utmost, by
men of every vocation, eager to see the
post-mortem evidences. Among the mem
bers of the legal profession, we noticed
Judge Ludlow and Mr. Wolbert, counsel
far Anton Probst, and among the distin
guished medical gentleman present were
Drs. Nebinger, Jewell, S. W. Grois, Lec
turer on Minor Surgery in Summer School
of Jefferson Medical College; also, Dr. Hunt,
Lecturer in Pennsylvania Hospital; Dr.
rackard, of the Mutter Lectureship of the
College of Physicians; Dm. H. Y. Smith,
Dyer, Shapleigh, St. Clair Ash, Coed and
Cohen. •
Before exposing the body of the unfortu.
nate individual, Dr. Pancoast reminded the
class and the guests of the institution, that
they were assembled there for the purpose
of scientific interest, to establish medico
-
legal points, and not from mere idle cari
osity, The face was now uncovered to
view, revealing the expression of his
features, •which were not distorted, bat
retaining a quiet and cheerful appearance.
The countenance did not present such a
sullen, stolid aspect as generally supposed,
but the lower portion of the face was _well
Moulded. The posterior and lateral por
tions of the body, as well as the arms,
shoulders and face were somewhat dis
colored, merely the result of post mortem
changes.
The lecturer now reverted to those inci
cidents which happened at the time of the
execution.
Prof. Dickson examined the pulse of the
radial artery previous to execution, and
found it to be 78 beats to the minute small
and weak.
The length of the cord was five feet six
Inches, length of drop, three feet.
Death took place very quickly, there being
no violent contortion of the body, only
slight muscular contraction. After hanging
about twenty minutes, the body was taken
down and handed over to the scientific com
mission present,oonsisting of Dr. B. Howard
Rand, Professor of Chemistry in Jefferson
Medical College,
.Dr. Dickson, Professor of
Practice of Medicine, Dr. Biddle, Professor
of Materia Medics, Dr. Wm. Pancoast,
Demonstrator of Anatomy, and Dr. Dyer,
Lecturer on Opthalmic Surgery.
The body was broaght in and set on a
chair, and first by aid of a lamp and then
by the electric spark, the eye was ex
amined by Drs. Dyer and Pancoast with
the opthalmasoope, • I for the sake of
testing the popular doctrine now prevalent,
respecting the impression of the image of the
last object seen during life remaining on the
retina. The result of these experiments
went to completely dispel this doctrine. The
structures of the eye were then examined,
and it was found that the only injury sus
tained by the eye, was rupture of the
capsule of the lens, caused by the
fall. The pupil did not contract under
the influence of the galvanic battery.
'The battery which was used was more pow
erful than was ever before experimented
with on such an occasion.
• The poles of this powerful battery, the su
perb action of which, Prof. Rand personally
superintended, were now applied to various
muscles of the face, and each and every ,
one responded to the current, as the keys of
a musical instrument to the finger, the ope
rators thus producing every expression of
the face, of laughter, scorn, astonishment,
dm. The arm was made to move to and
fro, under the influence of the electric cur
rent, and the lower extremities also. The
Medical Commission continued their caper- .
iments, the muscular irritability, under the
influence of the electrical currents, remain
ing for two hours.
Dr. Pancoast then referred to the amount
of pain inflicted by hanging, citing several
instances of persona who had been resus
citated after having been hanged until they
were apparently dead,—in each case the
statement made was that no pain whatever
was experienced in the hanging.
The lecturer then adverted to an in
teresting point of medico-legal discus
Edon, as to whether or not, independent
of the testimony of witnesses pre
sent, and other external signs, there
would be found, on etamination, such in
ternal evidences as would prove conclu
sively that a person came to his death by
hanging. A dissection was made of the re
gion of the neck, in order to ascertain the
amount of injury inflicted by the cord on
the subjacent parts. The furrow made by
the cord was distinctly marked, embracing
the entire neck, excepting the
_space of an
inch under the le ft ear, over which the knot
had been placed. The areolar tissue in the
track of the furrow was found diy and com
pressed. The jugular veins of both sides
were found distended with blood, the carotid
arteries found empty. •
When the incision was made in the cervi
cal regions, the stern-cleido mastoid mus
cle of theright side bulged into the wound
made by the knife, revealing a rapture_of
the lower portion of the muscle. On exam
ination of the hyoid bone, to which the
tongue is attached, it was found fractured
on both sides. No injury was sustained by
the cartilages of the larynx and trachea
(windpipe). There was no dislocation or
fracture of the 'vertebrae of the neck; the
odontoid process of the axis vertebra was
intact, neither the transverse nor check lig
aments having been ruptured.
On dissecting off the scalp, the vessels sup
plying it were found much congested, but
on the subsequent removal of the calve
rium, the membranes covering the brain
presented no other than ordinary postmor
tum. appearances. Strange to say, on ex
amination of the proper substance of the
brain, there was no congestion apparent,
and on malting a section to expose the ven
tricles, no fluid was found present in those
cavities. The brain was found to be below
the average weight, weighing but two
pounds and four ounces ay.
On opening the cavity , of the chest the
lungs presented no other appearance, than
what might be expected from ordinary
post-mortem alterations. On cutting open
the pericardium and removing the heart,
that organ. was found entirely empty,• the
right as well the left aide, going to show
that death was not due to apnEea, which, is
contrary to what might be expected in ex
amination of persons who have died by
hanging. The vena cava both the ascend
ing and descending were also found empty.
On cutting off the vessels close to their
origin, the weight of the heart was found to
be nine ounces and six drachms, about the
average weight of the heart. •
The attention of those present was now
•
directed to the examination Of the abdomen.
- It had been previously ascertained that
the breakfast of the prisoner, which had
been taken About two hours and a half be
fore mrecntion,„ consisted of two soft-boiled
eggs, several pieces of bread and butter,and
a tincupful of coffee. The stomach' being
opened, it was found empty, leading to an
interesting disclosure.--that the function of
digestion was not in the least impaired by
the mental anxiety to which one would sup
pose the person was subjected.
The liver was found to be in a normal
condition, weighing 3 pounds 3/- oz. The
spleen was very much enlarged,' distended
with blood, thus perhaps showing that the
congestion of the other viscera of the body
was relieved by the aftlitx of blood to this
organ; weight of spleen, ten ounces and five
drachms.
The kidneys were next examined; these
were found to be also much congested.
There was found to be considerable differ
ence in the comparative weight of the two
kidneys. Weight of right kidney, five
ounces, three drachms and two scruples;
weight of left kidney, six ounces, two
drachms and two scruples.
The condition of the bladder was found
healthy, not distended, containing only
about three ounces of urine. -
Dr. Pancoast, in lecturing to the audience,
gave it as his opinion that the individual
before him perished simply from shook in
flicted on the nervous system, caused by
the tension and pressure to which the pneu.-
mogastrie and phrenic nerves (nerves es
sential to the function of respiration) were
subjected, no injury having been inflicted
on the spinal cord, which opinion was sub
stantiated by Drs.' Hunt, 'Packard, S. W.
Gross, Nebinger, Jewell said the
other distinguished medical , gentlemen
present. The experiment of Sir Benjamin
Brodie was referred to, which was that of
tying a cord tightly around the neck of a
guinea pig, behind the windpipe, thus not
interfering with respiration. After allowing
the cord to remain tor a short time it was
removed, the guinea pig allowed to ran
around as before,, but the next morning it
was found dead, having perished from the
injury sustained by its nervous system.
The lecture having now continued for
one hour and three quarters, the lecturer
having completed a thorough examination
of the body called the attention of the pro
fession to witness that here was a man who
had died by hanging, yet having no evi
dence of such, excepting the statement of
trustworthy and respectable eye wit
nesses and other external signs
as the farrow made by)
the rope, yet the other internal evidence,
which might be expected in such a case
being absent, there being no fracture or dis
location of the neck, no rupture or other
injury of the spinal cord, no injury inflicted
on the windpipe, but simply a rupture of
the stereo-oleido-mastold muscle and frac
ture of the hyoid bone; thus making a most
valuable point with reference to medico
legal discussion. Thus terminated the able
lecture, ripe with the fruits of scientific in
quiry and discussion.
Our report of Dr. Pancoast's able Medico-
Legal lecture was reported by Drs. James
Taylor and E. B. Hutchins, expressly for
the BuLLETLK.
THE SCHUYLKILL NAVY REGATTA.—The
annual regatta of the Schuylkill Navy came
off on Saturday afternoon, and was
witnessed by thousands of persons. The
hills and walks on the Schuylkill aide of
Fairmount Park were filled with ladies,
gentlemen and children, and the entire
scene was a brilliant one. The skeleton
outrigger "Wink," of the Undine Club,
opened the contestat 4i o'clock, and as there
was no rival all the crew had to do was to
row over the course and claim the champion
flag for boats of the first class. At Si o'clock
came the race between the outrigger barges
"Atlanta," belonging to the Lrri&ne Club,
the "Faugh-a-Balla gh " owned by the Phila
delphia Club, and "Hiawatha," belonging
to the Malta Club. This contest was qaite
exciting. The "Atlanta" came in first, t he
i n
"Faugh-a-Ballagh" second, and the " -
watha" last. The next contest was between
the barges "Thistle," of the Quaker City.
Club, "Falcon," of the Pennsylvania Club,
"Vesper," of the Washington Club, and
"Minnehaha," of the Malta Club. The
"Thistle" took the lead at the start and won
an easy victory, coming in three hundred
yards ahead of any of her competitors. The
other boats came in in the order in which
they have been mentioned. This closed the
regatta. The Undine Club holds the cham
pionship flags for boats of the first and
second classes, and the Quaker City Club
the championship flag for boats of the third
class. The next regatta will take place in
October.

ThERE ARE SEVENTEEN coal fields in
England and Wales. The largest of them is that of
South Wales, Its greatest thickness is 10,009 feet. Its
present yield Is 9.000,000 toss a year. Next to It in size
Is the Derbyshire and Yorkshire, which yield more
than 12,000,000 tons a year, and will last for seven cen
turies. The greatDurluma and Northumberland emia
covers an area of 460 miles and contains 268 colleriss,
from whence are dug 16,000,000 tons of coal each year.
The Lancashire district has a9O colleries, and with half
