BODY FOUND UNDER BRIDGE
Mystery In Connection With Discovery
of Lifeless Man In Philadelphia
Philadelphia, April 21.—The body
of a well-dressed man believed to be
a resident of Wilmington, Del., was
found to-day under a bridge spanning
the subway in this city of the Philadel
phia and Reading railway. The skull
was crushed and there is a possibility
that the man was murdered, but it is
more likely he was struck by a train
as the body was found lying beside the -
tracks. Another theory is that he jump
ed from the 'bridge.
In one'of the pockets was a letter ;
addressed to Patrick Kennedy, 1406 1
King street, Wilmington. A hat that
fiad been worn by the victim bore the
initials P. K., which leads the police 1
to believe the bodv is that of Konnedy. 1

A SOUAORON OF POWERFUL
CRUISERS OFF HEW YORK
New York, April Jl.—A squadron
- of three cruisers, the moat powerful
1 gathered here since the war began, lay
5 off the entrance to New York harbor
, to-day.
Closest to the shore lay a four-fun
' nel British i miser, seven miles east
f of Ambrose Channel lightship. Her
• name and the names of her companions
conld not be* made out, even through
i glasses. Ten miles east of the High
lands rode the second ship, an auxil
iary cruiser, big and with lines that
spelled speed. This cruiser, observers
thought, was a straager here, the Ca
ronia having departed, presumably far
supplies.
The largest ship of the squadron, a
• four-funnel cruiser,
- east of the Highlands. This vessel,
» too, had not been seen previously by
shore observers.
For more than an hour messages
were exchanged 'between the two war-
I ships. Apparently the four funnel cruis
er, in command of the squadron, was
issuing orders. Later a small boat put
, out from the auxiliar cruiser Rearing
, officers. She made the five-mile trip to
- the four funnel cruiser and the officers
. went a-board.
3 Meantime the cruiser off the Am
a tirose lightship sighted the incoming
; motor ship Falstria, flying the flag of
f Denmark. The Dane answered the
i. warship's signal by Bteaniing slowly
" close by, as if for inspection. After
- running up answering signals, the Fal
stria headed for port.
' SAY RUSSIANOFFENSIVE IN
1 CARPATHIANS IS AT AN END
. Berlin, V;a London, April 21.—Ger
} man newspaper correspondents, tele
-1 graphing from the Carpathian moun
- tains, say that the Bussian offensive in
I that region has come completely to an
) end. Small engagements still are in
' progress in the wooded Carpathians,
• but these aro dying out. Occasional
[ fights which take place for local ad
■ vantage here and there are without im
. poitance. The situation generally is
characterized as one of absolute quiet.
Nothing of importance is said to be
happening in Bukowina or in Bussian
Poland.
Colonel Von Beuter, who cummanded
the Ninety-ninth regiment at Sabern in
1913 when trouble broke out between

evacuation by the Kussians some days
ago of their positions at Tarnow, in

This was done to avoid the effects of
the fire of heavy Austrian artillery.

The Senate rode rough shod over the

bills that were intended to furnish the
boxers, wrestlers and turfmen »port in
the future.
■Senator Crow called up the Catlin
bilj which would place horse racing at
all exhibitions under the supervision of
a State Commission. This bill had onee
•before been'defeated but its defeat was
reconsidered ujid it was held baek for a
favorable opportunity. This came this
morning, but, as it turned out, it was
not favorable, a t the Senate defeated
the bill by a vote of 21 veas to 25
nays, and the measure cannot again
eome up for consideration at this ses
sion.
Then the Senate turned its attention
to the Thompson bill providing that ten
round boxing coi.tests may be held in
this State under the supervision of a
State Commission, which should have an
office in the Capitol, a high salaried
secretary and look after the collection
of a percentage of the gate receipts for
the State. This "bill only got 17 votes
in its favor and 10 wore recorded
against it.
The House bill giving district atftr i
neys the authority ti> ein;iloy expert

When the bil! recently recalled from
the House giving first pince on the bal
lot to the party i-asting the highest,
vote at the last general election instead
of the last Presidential election came
up on final passage Mr. Warner moved
to refer it to the Committee on Agri
culture, to which McNichol objected,
and the motion was defeated. Th» bill
then passed finally.
The Baldwin House bill prohibiting
any city, countv or municipality from
imposing a license fee on insurance
companies or agents licensed by the
Insurance Commissioner passed finally.
The House bill amending the school
code by placing ai fine of $5 on parents '
who refuse to enroll their children
failed of passage after it had been at
tacked by McNichol, who said the
school problem of the day is not the
enrollment of children, put how to find
schools to accommodate them.
Senator Beidleman called up the bill '
relating to the health and safety of
anthracite miners, which places respon
sibility for accidents on the mine own
ers and operators instead of oil the
mine foremen and miners in the work
men's compensation bill. It passed by
42 to 0.
In calling lip his bill to regulate the
sale of proprietary patent medicines in
certain cases, Mr. Snyder, Blair, said
this bill was to prevent the poisoning
of babies with opium aud other narcot
ics. The measure was defeated.
Mr. Senseman, Westmoreland, pre
sented a bill providing that whenever
51 per cent, of the electors of any
township, borough, ward or city, peti
tion the court'to refuse to grant liquor
licenses therein, the said court shall

M'INTYRB AND HEATH
TO THE MAJESTIC ON SATURDAY
Beyond all question the greatest duo
of blackface delineators of the real
Southern darky that the stage has over
known is Mclntyre and Heath, who
come to the Majestic Saturday after
noon and evening in "The Ham Tree."
They give an absolutely faithful por
trayal of the black man as he really
exists.
Mr. Mclntyre as a pessimistic toon,
and Mr. Heath as the colored fjemmen
with pronounced optimistic ideas of
life, are exceedingly funny in every
thing they do, but as the minstrel men

MANY MOURN MRS. GAKMAN
Beautiful Floral Tribute From Neigh
bors Placed on Her Grave Yesterday
Neighbors anil friends who knew
and lovnl Mrs. Louisa C. Garman for
her numerous, kindnesses to them ex
pressed their grief over her death when
they united yesterday in paying tribute
to her memory in the form of a huge
spray of carnations beuring the card,
"A tokeu from those whom she had be
friended and who knew and loved her."
Mrs. Garman had lived at 62 0 Ham
ilton street from the time that section
of the city was almost an open field.
She had seen the town grow up about
her, and she took a kindly, interest in
all those-in tho neighborhood who need
ed a helping hand. So it was that when
she became ill some montliß ago with
pneumonia, the whole neighborhood
joined in wishing he-r u sueedy recovery;
13
in "The Ham Tree" their talents ap
jpea# to the greatest advantage.
i Mclntyre and Heath joined hands in
San Antonio, Texas, in the spring of
1 1 874, at the Vaudeville Theatre. They
played many variety and eir«ur. engage
ments until the fall of IX7S, when they
organized Mclntyre and Heath*' Min
strels. One year later they made tiieir
lirst -New York appenrance at Tony
Pastor's Theatre, introducing i'or the
first time in the North 'buck wing
dancing, scoring an instantaneous and
I pronounced success.—Ad v. e
but she never gained strength and
death came last Saturday.
The funeral was held yesterday aft
ernoon from her home, the services be
ing in charge of the Rev. Dr. Edwin
Pyles, pastor of the Fifth Street Meth
odist church, of which she was for many
years a member. Burial was in East
Harrisburg cemetery beside her hus
band, U. B. Garman, a brother of Judge
John M. Garman, of Luzerne county.
The gravo was covered with flowers.
