SERIOUS CIIARQR IS AQAINST HIM Ills Victim .Undo n Dcntlihod Conten tion to Her Ilusbitud nnd Mo Told It to the Coroner's JnryAiinlyl ofnDoctor's'.IIcdlclnosund Cor oner l.ongstroot,s Antopir Tostl monv Mukot Out n Ntioiig L'nso Aftnliist tho .Missing Doctor. It Is Just us well for "Dr." Frank lCornownkl that he Is in parts unknown to the city's authorities. This was In dicated by last night's verdict of the coroner's jury on tho death of Mrs. Magdalene Glndzyllwlcz, nnd by tho evidence which Justllled the verdict that the woman "came to her death from septic peritonitis or blood pois oning resulting from an attempted ciimlnal operation upon her by Frank KornewsUI, who is not a registered physician, of Lael. wanna, county." The woman's husband testified she hnd confessed to him Just before she died that Kornewski caused her lllnehS nnd in the manner r.tated in the verdict. A letter from Chomi-it Uoiijamln to Coroner Longstrcet was read by tho latter showing the result of tho chim lst's analysis of the medicines which Kornewski had prescribed. Evidence of a confirming nature was contained In the coroner's testimony of the autopsy which' he performed last Friday in the presence of the jury. HUSBANDS TESTIMONY. John Glndzyllwlcz, tho husband, was first sworn. Ho was evidently grief stricken. The tears welled up in Ills eves while he was answering Coroner I.ongstreet's questions through the In terpretation of A. Wlslosky. one of the jurors. The substance of his story was as follows: Mrs. Glndzyllwlcz was 21 years old and the mother of three children, two of whom are living. She had been 111 two weeks, nnd seriously ill one week before she died. A German midwife had been called to the house after Mrs. Glndzyllwlcz became ill, but tcld her that her case was one for a doctor. "Dr." KornewsM was treating the pa tient at the time nnd h'ad done so from the .time, she became ill until she died. He was present whrn she died. She had paid him ?. ,When his wife was dying she told the witness that Kornewski had per formed an operation two weeks before her death, or, as she said, just before she was so 111. The letter read by the corner from Chemist Benjamin said the analysis of one of the medicines showed it to be fluid extract of cotton root. A sec ond bottle contained carbolic acid and a, third bottle compounds comparative, ly harmless. THE CORNER'S STORY. Coroner Longstreet's testimony of tho post mortem examination was in detail and at considerable length. Summarized his evidence was conclus. ivr. that tho woman had been operated upon. This did not directly cautio death. The treatment caused septic peritonitis and death resulted from that complaint. The jury were not long In reaching this conclusion mentioned li. the fore going. They were: A. V.. jVorim, J. D. Keator, John T. Brown, t'atrb k Cuslck. A. "Wlslosky nni John M.t jernyik. The latter Is the undertaker to whom Glndzyllwlcz first made the chargo that his wife had been "pois oned." After last Friday's post mortem ex amination a warrant was issued for Kornewskl's nrrest and given to Coun ty Detoctlvp Leyfahon to serve. Kor newski had fled, however, and has not been arrested. Sunday Leyshon thought he had a clue to Kornewskl's hiding place but this proved to be In correct. MINISTERIAL APPOINTMENTS. Announced ly tlio ITnitcd I?vnngellcnl Church nt W illinmsport.

It Ih absolutely In destructible by any means except Im mersion In Ijolllni" water or the applica tion of a red hot Iron. It may Up cut up and divided In any manner, and the smul lest shreds will throw out roots, grow nnd form buds. The leavis of this ex traordinary plant have been hUspenUed In tho air of a dry room, they have been placed In a close, iilr-tlght box, without moisture of any sort, and still they grow. Even when pressed and packed away In ft botanist's herbarium It has beon known to grow.

Tit-Bits. RETURNED PROM THE SOUTH. J, II. Jjncdlintn, oT Scranton, Tound tho Soutlinrucrs Anxious to right. The war spirit In tho south is very prevalent, according to J, II. Leed hain, of the American Mutual Indem nity company, of this city, who has just returned from Atlnnta and other southern cities. To n Tribune reporter Mr. Lecdham stated at the Hotel Jermyn last night thnt the southerners to a man are not only stirred up for forcing quick re dress from Spain for tho Maine's loss and Indignities In Cuba, but arc anx ious to take the present opportunity of showing the United States that thcro Is no longer nny "South" In a patriotic sense. To northerners In particular they want tho chance to show thnt no class would undergo moro than they to nvenge tho destruction of the Maine and assert the country's dignity and that they are nlert to stand to the shoulder of the bluo they onco fought against. Mr. Lecdham found this spirit In At lanta, Birmingham, Chattanooga nnd other cities. The object of his trip kept hitrf In close touch with business men. Their constant topic of general con versation was tho Maine incident. While in Atlanta Mr. Leedham pro cured a license for the American In demnity company to do business In Georgia and he established In Atlanta the state agency. He located agencies In other large southern cities. QARMAN IS DISAPPOINTED. Thinks Thnt Othvr Lnttlmer Cases Sh.iuld Itti Brought to Trinl. John M. Gannnn, one of tho leading attorneys for the prosecution in the Lnttlmer trail, concluded at Wllkcs Barre yesterday, was disappointed nt tho result, but Is not disposed to let the other cases drop. Mr. Garman when en by a i orr er j estot day a d, "I urn somewhat disappointed with the verdict, although I recognize the fact that the verdict of the Jury is con clusive as to that case, In the judg ment of myself and, I believe, of my colleagues, the evidence clearly war ranted a verdict of manslaughter. "While there had been numerous dis orderly parades below Hazleton the evidence in this case proves that these people.wlshlng to avoid the very things complained of tho McAdoo and other public marchers, held a public meet ing and resolved to so conduct them selves an not to offend the law or the law ofllcers. In our judgment their purpose was peaceable and laudable, nnd nn Interview with tho Lattlmer miners was absolutely essential; be cause If the Lattlmer people refused to strike, the Harwood people would return to work nnd that strike would have boen ended peaceably and with out bloodshed. The conclusion of this trial proves nothing, except that here after laboring men may be shot down like dogs In Luzerne county without a hope of redress." "Will the other indictments be tried?" was asked. I cannot say whether tho other In dictments will be tried or not. The matter rests with the District Attor ney. I feel sure his associates are un animously of the opinion that another casjo should be tried and that speedily; and we think, In this, public opinion will agree with us. And even If It doesn't, entertaining the views we do of the present trial, we think the case should be tried." COURT HOUSE AGITATION AQAIN. Luzornc Commissioners Will Soon i'iiuillv Decide About It. In a short time the county commis sioners will tnko up the matter of a new court house nnd It Is more prob-. able that It will be decided to erect a new one than it is to remodel the pres ent structure. At a recent joint meet ing of the commissioners nnd judges, the sentiment was strong in favor of an entirely new building. County Commissioner Hay yesterday Informed a reporter that the commls bioners will first try to obtnlnthe feel ing of the people on the question nnd whatever the majority of the people wish, the commlssloneis will decide to carry out the people's desire. Mr. Hay Intimated that he Is In favor of a new building, and stated that the other commissioners have not expressed any opinion to him. He Is of the opinion that an adequate and presentable building can be erected for $450,000. The commissioners have not yet dis cussed a site, but all questions In con nection with the project will be con sidered and decided In about a month, when the commissioners will have got ten through with the work of the tri ennial assessment. One grand jury has already leeom mended that n new court house bo built and one has recommended that the present building be remodeled. The commissioners have consulted attor neys and they state that one recom mendation Is sulllclent to either build or remodel, unless a new site Is to be built upon, when two recommendations are necessary, as decided by the Su preme court.

Many f,ood stories could bo told of tho alertness which senators display In se curing well-placed desks, but the expjil enco of Mr. Vest Is especially worth re lating. When, In 1SS3, tho civil servlco luw was being discussed, Mr. Pendleton, an Ohio Demount, and Mr. Dawes hud piebented bills.

Instructions from tho first assistant postmaster general to the Scruuto'i o'llce direct that although the mini mum amount ot remittance is fixed at $50 amounts less than that must be re ceived and receipted for, nnd remit tances of amounts not In even dollars must be received. The minimum amount has been fixed simply as a matter of convenience, as there are oc casions when It is necessary to remit smaller sums and In odd amounts. It Is probable that oHlces other than those mentioned will from time to time be directed to deposit their sur plus funds with the Scranton office. Some one mailed a letter from Scran ton Feb. 11, addressed to Walter B. Barker, United States consul, Sagua la Grande, Cuba. It enclosed a half sheet of note paper on which was written "For tho sufferers from the war." Con sul Barker on Feb.

Democrats to Present Their Revised Appropriations Tomorrow Night. A call for a meeting tomorrow night of the joint estimates committee of councils has been Issued by City Clerk Lavelle. The call Is significant from the fuct that Chairman Ross had said he would not call a meeting until as sured that the Democratic majority on the committee was teady to present an appropriation ordinance providing for a sum within the available $03,000. Mr. Gtier, the Democratic leader on the committee, wns yesterday author ity for the statement that the Demo crats would be ready Friday night with a revised ordinance. Chairman Ross did not personally order the call. The order was given the city clerk by a Democratic member who Enid he had been authorized to do so by Mr. Rofs.
