The most disastrous flood known
to that section occurred last week in
the Monongahela river. The greatest
sufferers were the lumbermen and coal
men, and their losses will reach up
above the millions. Immense barge
fleets, loaded with coal for the lower
markets were carried away. A scheme
is now on foot to test the feasibility of
iron barges, the Messrs. Brown & Sons
being the piojectors. Should the ex
periment prove successful it will revo
lutionize the barge-building iudustry,
and prove a serious loss to the lum
bermen along the Allegheny and its
tributaries.
Mrs. Susanna Knapp, of Fox
Crock, Greco township, diod this morn
ing, of typhoid fever, aged about 45
years. Emma J. Rico, a daughter of
the defeated by her first husband, died
on tho CiBt iust., of the same disease,
aged about 17 years. Mrs. Knapp
was the mother of several children, of
whom she was the main support since
the death of her husband, upward of
two years ago. She was an exemplary,
christian woman, beloved by all her
utiighbois, and she will be sadly miss
ed aud mourned. Another daughter
is at present lying very low with the
same dread diseuse.
Wm. Hunter, whose serious acci
dent we chronicled lust week, died
from the effects of bis injuries, at his

Weduesday eveniug last. He was
aged about 53 years, and besides a
wife he leaves a family of five chil
drenthree boys and two girl all
above the age of 15, except one girl.
These, with a large circle of other rel
atives and friends, have the sympathy
of the entire community in their great
bereavement. The funeral took place
on Friday last aud was attended by
an immense concourse of friends, the
remaius beiug iuterred in the Evan
gelical church cemetery ou German
Hill.
Oo M'judny of this week, Geo.
Hill, brother of Judge Hill, who lives
four miles abovo this place on the Al
legheny river, met with a very painful
accident. While assisting to unload
some hay with a patent fork, a rope
gave way letting him fall from the
wagon to the barn floor, a distance of
several feet, and fracturing his right
leg close tip to the hip joint. Dr.
Morrow was called and reduced the
fracture, leaving the patient as com
fortable as possible under the circum
stances, but it will likely be some
time before he will have any use of
the injured limb, he being upward of
50 years of ago, which with the na
ture of the wound will make the heal
ing process rather slow.

John S. Everhart Discharged.
The hearing of John S. Evcrhart
for complicity in the murder of his
wife and mother-in-law was held be
fore Esquire T. J. Payne, of Paint
tvrp., Clarion county, on Monday of
this week. After all the witnesses
had bceu examined, and the lawyers
concluded their arguments 'Squire
Payue rendered his decision discharg
ing Mr. Everhart, and from the evi
dence elicited it is difficult to nnder
staud how he could do otherwise. It
seems foolish for a set of detectives to
cause the arrest of a man against
whom they canuot find sufficient testi
mony to even hold for trial, much less
convict. Following is the testimony
as reported by the Derrick :
George Fullmer was tho first witness
sworn. He came to John Evoi hart's
April 13, 1H65, aud left his house Decem
ber IS, 1S85, During this poriod I stayed
there all the time. I am 71 years old next
Octobor. John Everliurt and bis wile
quarrolud frequently about giving Dan a
deed for his laud. They often quarreled
and Mrs. Everhart said she would go aud
live with her daughter who was going to
school at Edinboro. Some tiuies they
would not speak for three or four uays.
These quarrels would occur about once a
month, and made tho woman, Gilrlllan,
childish and John threatened to take her
to the Asylum at North Warren. I left
John Everhart' s Dec. 18th, and took some
of my clothos with me, and on Feb. luth
came back and got some more but did not
get all. On the 1st day of March I went
back to get them but John Everhart told
tne to come back on the 6th of March, as
the womou would wash them up aud have
them ready for me. I told him as be was
coming up to Fryburg ou that day he
might put them in bis buggy and leave
them at Moran's store, which was on bis
way, but his excuse was that he wanted to
start early and that they would not bo dry.
Tho cross-examination elicited nothing
new.
D. Bvers sworn I was at Everhart's
house, March 8th, '8(3, saw Mrs. Evoruart
in the spring houso laying in the drain.
Sho was doad, with her throat cut. Had
two large cuts extending from ear to ear
and two small ones lower down. There
were blood marks on the door. I knew
her for eight years. I was at home on the
day of the murder. Ed. Owens preceded
me to the rpring bouse. The old lady was
lound first in tho house, with her throat
cut. - .
Daniel Byers was called to the stand
agaiu and said that after Mr. Everhart
looked at the woman ho said that he went
to the houso and found that f300 hud bceu
taken. At first ho said there was no mon
ey taken. John Evoihait asked mo be
fore the hearing at East Brady to state
that I bad seeu a red-headod man with a
broad-brimmed bat at the window iu the
Evorhiu-t houso about 1 o'clock tho day of
the murder. I told lilm that I never seen
sach a man iu his houso on tliut day. 1
saw some person through tho wiudow as
I passed by tho Everhart house that clay,
between 12 and I o'clock ; could not dis
tinguish who it was ; heard Mrs. Ever
hart's voice.
John Seiglor, a Germau, sworn. Have
been in America 10 years; am CO years
old; live near Fry burg; I hoard of tho
murder on Tuesday. Saw Everhart on
Tuesday, the day of tho murder. Ever
hart askod Hargeuradcr if r'uhuor was at
homo. Did not hear bim say anything
furthor of Fulinor. Witness failed to tell
all that tho attorney wanted, though bo
knew, and said bo would get it all at tbo
general term.
J. P. Fuller, Esq., sworn Livo in Fry
burg ; I was at homo in my oltlco ; I heard
Evcrhart say that Fullmer was a very
abusive man and bo ruiglit kill tbo boy
that I bad adopted.
Richard Lyman sworn I was in Fry
burg the Bth of March, 'sti ; hud a talk
with J. S. Evcrhart; Evcrhart asked mo
if I cvor hud any trouble ; I said I had,
wus stuck us bail ; ho said ho w as stuck
also by a man by tho name of Myers; be
refused to bail him, but bis wife suid be
wus a cruel man ; I thou bailed him and
had to pay it, which was f(W0; I once gave
my wife $10 in gold ; I asked her for it
some time aftorwurds, but she only gave
me f 15 ; she swore up and dowu lliat that
wus ull she over got from me.
Wm. Frazior sworn I recolloct the date
of the murder ; 1 got there at 0 a. in. next
day, being mot by Dun in the yard. We
wont to bunt the track of the men they .
suspticted of being tho murdorers. Found
them near a soul bank ; followed them 1
through a field and woods within a quar
ter of a mile of Hargcnreider j flnt found
one track and a littlo furthor on found
another, one coming and one going; tho
first track was found within 60 yards of
tbo coal bank in a field ; a regular path
was bent to and from the coal bank nnd
houso; we folio wod the track to tho big
road towards Hargcnreider; within a
quarter of a mile of Hargenroldor found
Fullmer in the yard ; I heard hi in step out
into the snow ; measured his track, which
nearly corresponded to those found in tbo
field ; the coal bank is 300 yards from Ev
erhart's houso ; track were mado several
days beforo, as near as I can toll ; it snow
ed vory hard on the 8th of March.
Joseph Brewster, a lad of 10 years, was
sworn. Ho was living at Everhart'a and
going to school, and the day of tho mur
der told Mr. Everhart that Mrs. Everhart
was going visiting to the Weavers, and he
was going to stay at home that day. Ever
hart scolded him and told him to go to
school, and also iu foroible language told
his wife not to go to the Weavors. When
Mr. Evcrhart started for Fryburg his wire
told him to bring homo some coffee and
sugar; he said to her "After to-day you
will not noed any Btigar and coffco;" I
went to school, and when I came home I
found grandmother's throat cut, aud thou
I ruu down the road aud told Mrs. Mahle.
Howard Evorhart, Dan Everhart's son,
and I were hauling manure and found a
coat buried In the manure, whou Howard
exclaimed; "That is papa's coat." John
E vo hart camo and took the coat away
and I never saw it since. Afterwards Mr.
Everhart bought ine a Btiit of clothos and
told mo not to say anything about finding
the coat, and if tho lawyers ever askod me
anything to say that I did not remember
anything.
Max Fletcher's testimony was as fol
lowsLive near John Hverhart ; held the
office of Justice of the Peace for 13 years
before the murder. At one time, about
three or four years beforo the murder,
Johu Everhart sent a boy for me to come
down to bis house. I went to nis houso
and found him and bis daughter in the
room ; ho wanted mo to make a doed of
100 acres of his iarm to his wife; Inquired
for his wife and he said sho was down a
half mile at a neighbors. The idea he
conveyed to tne was that he was doing tbls
uudor compulsion, and ho was a little ex
citod and I did not like to make out a
doed, not liking tho way things looked.
I told Mr. Everhart I wanted to see his
wife before I made the deed. I wont down
to Mr. McMichael's; was introduced and
broached tho subject, and sho was deter
mined to havo a deed for the 100 acres.
Sho told mo that she wanted to build a
house, and that hor and Mary would live
together. I talked to her awhilo and tried
to effect a reconciliation, and sho said if
John would como down in tho morning
she would go home with him. At anotlior
time, abont one year boforo the murder,
John Everhart camo to my house, threw
down a doed and wantod mo to make out
a deed for 100 acres to bis wife. I told him
I guessed I would have to go down again
and got things fixed up, which I did, aud
accomplished a socond reconciliation.
About six months before tho murder, I
was passing by Mr. Everhart's house and
asked bim how he was getting along,
when bo remarked "With tho grace of
God in my heart I can bear anything."
