DEAD BODt'oFT BABE.
Found in tho tiermun Catholic Cemetery
Near Number l-lve. South Slde-llody
Hud Been Uusliod-Caso In Coroner's
Charge.
The body of a new born babe was
found yesterday In the German Catho.
lie cemetery, near No. 5, on the South
Side. From a cursory examination It
could not be positively stated whether
or not the child was stillborn. The
coroner was notified yesterday after
noon and may hold an Inquest today.
There are Indications that the body Is
of nine months' growth, although Its
sire and weight do not show a growth
of over seven months.
The body was discovered yesterday
by a woman, who notltled the South
Side police station. Lieutenant Zang,
Patrolman Schmidt and Undertaker
Miller visited the cemetery and found
the body wrapped In a white cloth. It
had been washed clean. The features
seemed to have fully developed and a
growth of hair had started on the
scalp. There was no decomposition.
The body was brought to Undertaker
Millers', on Cedar avenue, where it now
lies awaiting the coroner's decision
whether an Investigation Is needed or
not. There Is no' clue as to Its parent
age. A woman carrying a bundle was
seen to enter the cemetery Thursday
and remain but . a short time. The
theory that the bundle contained the
dead baby Is exploded by the fact that
:!ie body was not decomposed when
found. (

MANY OPINIONS CIVEN
Lively Discussions . of Temperance
Men at Jcrmyn Convention. ..
THE SALOON IS A DETKIMEXT
After a Lengthy Dcbato the Delegates Do
cidod That Liquor Selling Is a Monaco
toTemperanco-They Believe Quar
terly Conventions o Good Thing
Delegates from temperance societies
of tho First district met In eighth
quarterly convention at the parochial
hall, In Jermyn parish, yesterday after
noon. The regular chairman was ab
sent and Vice President of the Diocesan
union, Frank McCaffrey, of Jermyn,
was chosen to preside. Quarterly con
ventlons have no legislative powers, but
questions are taken up and discussed,
and the disposition of these questions
by a vote of the delegates Is very of
ten preceded by some vigorous expres
sion of opinion.
i The first question taken up for argu
ment was, "Does the Saloon-Keeper Re
tard the Progress of tho Temperance
Movement?" John P. Campbell, of Car-
bondale, was the first one to discuss It.
He called It a delicate question, for the
reason that many temperance men
have relatives or friends, who sell 11
quor for a living; and JUHt as soon as
this question Is discussed, the man who
favors abolishing the saloon Is looked
upon as a temperance crank and a
fanatic. Mr. Campbell had not the least
doubt but that the saloon-keeper re
tards the progress of the temperance
movement. He does It whenever he
sells a drink' of liquor, for that is the
stuff that ruins men, young and old.
James Brown, of Carbondale, wanted
to know what business the temperance
men would have In driving the liquor
seller to the street. Mr. Brown could
not see what temperance organizations
would have to live for If the liquor seller
were driven from the land. Another
delegate, who evidently has a relative
whom he did not wish to offend In the
liquor business, spoke his mind In the
following manner: "Mr. President, the
least said, the alslest mended."
Mr. Banks Was Positive
Delegate A. F. Banks very sensibly
said that the question was a query and
an answer in Itself. He wanted to
know if the winter Is a benefit to the
Iceman, or would perpetual darkness be
a benefit to the manufacturer of Illum
inating gas? The speaker said that no
sensible minded man could vote ad
versely. The saloon-keeper retards the
progress of the temperance movement,
because the temperance movement IS
irganized to battle with the power of
the saloon.
Vice President Lavan, of Wllkes-
Barre, said that the sooner temperance
men go at the liquor traffic with
knuckles bare and sleeves rolled up, the
better It will be for their welfare.
It was loft for John Mulraney, of Car
bondale, to set the convention agog.
Of course, the saloon-keeper, he said,
retards the progress of the temperance
movement, but there Is another that Is
a greater foe to the movement. The
proprietor of 'the "festive speak easy"
is this foe. Delegate Mulraney, in a
clear, ringing voice, charged temper
ance men with being their own bitter
antagonists, when they ncqleace In the
prevalent tolerance of the holeB-in-the-wall.
In his ward In Carbondale he
knows of at least twenty men, who sell
liquor without a license from the court.
Tho constable of the ward, the speaker
said, also knows these same proprietors
of unlicensed rum Bhops, but he goes
down term after term to court and
swears before the Judges that no liquor
Is sold with or without a license In his
ward. Mr. Mulraney also said that he
sent a list of the speak-easy proprietors
to Mr. McCaffrey, the Second Vice presi
dent of the Diocesan union, but In no
way, public, private, or In quarterly
convention, had the hitter ever ac
knowledged the receipt of tho same.
A Divorce Is Needed.
Mr. Lavan, of Wilkes-Barre, advo
cated some way of cleansing the ?xlst-lna-
condition of politics. Tho first place,
he said, the candidate, whether he be
Judge or constable, goes after being
nominated is to the saioon to coun jib
Influence, and before seeking to throw
all the blame upon the saloon-keeper.
mi- T.nv-Hn sucerested that there ongni
to be something done to divorce poll
n vr,m fhe rum Influence. It Is use
less, be said, to attempt to confine the
saloon element, wnen me mw is unti
tled by tho power of the liquor seiicr.
.Tnhn Kllleen. of carDonuaie, iour mi-
view that In any district where there
are twenty-five temperance men, no ex
cuse exists for the presence of the speak
easy. If those men would exert them
selves around the time when constables
make their returns to the court, these
functionaries would not be so ready to
perjure themselves In shielding the un
licensed grog sellers. Each constable,
Mr. Kllleen said, gives bonds In the sum
of $1,000 for the faithful performance of
hJs duty, and If he does not perform It,
and certain temperance men know that
he does not perform It and still do not
take him to task, then the temperance
men are to blame and not the consta
ble nor the speak-easy proprietor. A
ballot was taken ore the question and It
was affirmed without a dissenting vote.
A large measure of discussion was
provoked by the question concerning
the advisability of holding society pic
nics for the purpose of raising funds to
defray the expense of lectures. Vari
ous views were put forth. There wob
h. great divergence of opinion as to why
picnics, or other kindred means ror
raising money, should not be held; but
all coincided that the most substantial
reason Is that It would be more hon
orable' for the members of each society
to pay pro rata for evangelistic work
than to ask or expect outsiders to as
sist. Quarterlies Are All Right.
The question whether or not quarter
ly conventions are beneficial was next
mooted. Presiding Officer McCaffrey
introduced the subject and asked those
in favor of quarterly conventions to
give good and substantial reasons why
they should not be discontinued. It
was argued that (f they are of no bene
fit they ought to be abolished. This
question brought forth a concensus ot
opinion. Nearly every delegate who
expressed himself admitted that quar
terly conventions are of a good deal
of good. A vote was taken and re
sulted unanimously In the affirmative,
While the convention was waiting for
the committee on credentials to make
Its report, the chairman called for
short speeches from the delegates on
any topic that might be of Interest.
Vice-President Charles H. Lavan, of
the Diocesan Union, mounted the ros
trum and acquitted himself in his usual
forcible and emphatic style. He ex
plained that the object of quarterly
conventions Is to effect good result, by
bringing men to lead sober lives. If
these conventions do not accomplish
this end then they fall short of the
purpose for which they were Inaugurat
ed. He did not see many young men
before him In the audiences and he felt
sorry for that fact.
There Is no reason, he said, why
every young man In every district of
the union should not belong to the tem
perance cause. The reason Is obvious
and self-evident, and he depreciated
vigorously the apathy of the women.
They, too, he said, ought to belong
to total abstinence Boclettes, because no
persons suffer as they do from the
blight of Intemperance. The women
should belong to the temperance cause,
not because they need the pledge, but
their Influence and example In every
community would be a power for good.
Ncsry Favors Enthusiasm.
M. J. Neary, of Mayfleld, advocated
general enthusiasm among the officers
of the union, the officers of the district,
and, In fact, the rank and file of the
societies. He urged the temperance
men to take a lesson of advice from
other organizations. M. F. Burke, of
Carbondale, thought that it would
boom the temperance cause If an In
surance feature were added to the con
stitution, and by-laws In societies, he
said, where the members have to die to
win benefits, the members are more
attached to the organization.
Miss Mary Barrett, of Carbondale,
presented an elaborate report of the
Buccess of the St. Rose's Ladles' Total
Abstinence society of Carbondale, for
which she was given a vote of thanks.
James F. Judge spoke enthusiastically
on Ladles' temperance work. He an
nounced that Mrs. O. R. Lake, of St.
Louis, will be through the eastern
states soon and he would be pleased to
make arrangenents for societies that
would like to have her lecture under
their auspices. Mrs. Lake's reputation
as a temperance lecturer Is national.
The ninth quarterly convention of the'
district will be held on the first Sunday
of July In Archbald. It being Holy
week, the usual evening entertainment
and rally was omitted from the pro
gramme, and at 6.30 the convention ad
journed. THE DATE IS FIXED.

Diagnosis of the Caso.
The colored colony of Center street
was thrown Into a state of excitement
rlday night by a report hat William
Henry Holand, the colored headwalter
at the Hotel Terrace, had been pols.
oneu and was dying. Koland did die
haturday morning and the excitement
was continued throughout yesterday
oy Mrs. Roland's belief In the polBon
meory notwithstanding the counter
opinion of two attending physicians.
The whole affair resulted In a coro
ner's Inquest and post-jnortom exami
nation yesterday, and, although no
verdict was rendered, the evidence did
not Indicate that poison other than
alcohol had anything to do with the
matter.
Roland and a party of friends had
been drinking in the Golden Kagle s
loon on Center street, near Wyoming
avenue, Friday night. In years past
he drank to Some extent, but for five
months he had been abstemious.
About 10 o'clock he went to his home
across the street. Ho was very drunk
and was bleeding from the nose.
Could Not Stop BleedliiR.
Mrs. Holand was unable to stop the
nose bleed and her alarm Increased
when Roland became very 111. Dr
Hayes was called at midnight and
found the patient delirious and violent,
It required the united efforts ' f three
brawny negroes to hold him. Sedatives
were administered, and after an emetic
had failed to act, a Btomaeh tube was
used successfully.
For three hours Dr. Hayes worked
until he was nearly exhausted. He
had diagnosed the case as acute alco
holism, but the antidote treatment was
almost without results. The quantity
of Intoxicants taken had apparently
destroyed the reflexes.
Dr. Reedy was summoned and the at
tempt to Bave Roland's life was con
tlnued uninterruptedly until 9 o'clock
Saturday morning, when the negro
died.
The physicians still attributed th
cause of death to.acute alcoholism, but
Mrs. Roland was positive that her hus
band had been poisoned. She demand
ed an Investigation by the coroner.
Coroner Kelley yesterday Impanneled a
Jury consisting of D. J. Campbell, D.
S. Ryan, W. A. Raub, George Schlager,
D, E. Delaney, W. A. Raub and V.. L,
Duggan.
KchiiK of the I'ost Mortem.
At the Inquest held during the after
noon In the house, Dr. Hayes was ex
amined and a number of colored men
told of the drinking bout In the Golden
Eagle saloon.
Last night Coroner Kelley, assisted
by Drs. Hayes and Reedy, performed
a post-mortem. They found several
spots of localized peritonitis and some
appendicitis, and positive evidence of
heavy drinking in years gone by
There were no indications of poisoning
other than acute alcoholic.
The result of the Dost-mortem will be
told to the Jury tomorrow night In the
arbitration room In the court house.
