MYSTEBY YET UNSOLVED.
No Light Shed on the Child Found on
Ash Hump.
The Identity of the person Mho de
posited the body of a dead born Infant
on an ash heap near the Scranton
Hallway company's power house on
Filday has not yet been revealed, and
It remains for thu police to solve the
mystery.
Coroner Itobcrts held an nutopsy In
the case on Saturday and determined
that the infant was still-born. Tho
patties who deposited the body on tho
nsh dump evidently wero familiar with
child birth, us materials and drugs
tihc-d in such cases Mere found on tho
body.
Dr. Itobcrts did not deem an Inquest
necessary, but believes the polled
should Investigate the case.
The child's skull Mas crushed, but
the coroner decided that this M'as
caused by surgical Instruments ut tho
child's birth. Chief Ttobllng told a
Tribune man lost night that ho wan
perfectly satisfied with the coronerM
finding. The police do not attach
much Importance to the fact that tho
bodv was so carefully wrupped In a.
night-robe and cotton. That and eoino
other circumstances show that the
child was bom Into a family of soma
means.
