    CHICAGO'S MYSTERY.
The Police <if .1 Loss as to the
Identity J- P. Simoiids.
WOODRUFF IS TALKING
Where Hr Said II> Put the Trunk and
Wlieir M Was Really Found—Burke's
littwyer'* Move for u Habeas Corpus
Writ—lt Will lie Argued Before tho
Full Court.
CHICAGO, July 23.—1n spite of repeated
declarations to tho contrary the police
seem somewhat at a loss as to the iden
tity of J. B. Simoiids, the man who
bought the furniture found in the Carlson
cottage. They think though, that lie
was not a Chicago man but was brought
from some other point by the persons
who had charge of tho conspiracy. Tho
committee to investigate l>r. Croniu's
loyalty was appointed in Camp 20 on
Feb. 8, and on Fob. 19 Simonds rented
Clark street flat, fti the intervening
week ho must have been summoned
hither.
It is thought also that Simonds was
tho man who drove tho wagon contain
ing the trunk with its bloody burden
from tho Carlson cottage to the Lake
View catch basin. On what facts this
belief is based the police will not divulge,
but they seein so confident that their
theory is correct, that It looks as if they
must have some grounds for maintain
ing it.
it will bo remembered that Frank
Woodruff gave tho police a circumstan
tial account of where tho trunk was to
bo found shortly after his arrest on tho
west side. Detective Andy Rohan was
detailed not loug since to pump
Woodruff. Woodruff told him that it i
was about 3 o'clock in the morning
when lie and McDougal and Melville
dumped the trunk at that place. The
officers already had found another man
who taw the trunk early thut Sunday
morning. This gentleman and his wife
drove north on Evnnston avenue at 7
o'clock past tho place where the trunk
was found and saw no trunk, Returning
an hour later the trunk was lying by the
roadside.
Woodruffs story was that ho throw tho
trunk from the wagon beside the road.
The bartender, who reported tho trunk
to tho police, found it some distance
from the road, under a fence.
"Woodruff. " said rainier, "that trunk
was not beside the road at 7 O'clock and
it was at 8. We have a man who drove
by there."
"I know him,"said Woodruff. "I met
him. Fie had his wife with him."
This was tho fact and l'almer was
astonished.
"Come now," 6ail he. "tell mo how
you found that out."'
"That man kept his horse at Dean's
stable, and 1 heard him tell about tho
trunk where lie first saw it when ho came
back to the stable."
State's Attorney Longeneckor says ho
will have Simonds here before Burke gets
back from Winnipeg, but there are doubts
about this.
WINNIPEG, Man., July 23.—Burke's
lawyers havo moved for a writ of habeas
corpus on behalf of the famous C'rouin
suspect. Argument is fixed before tho
full court. The lawyers have been hang
ing off, doubtless expecting some one to
put up monoy to carry on an appeal, but
none has been forthcoming.

I'ItIXCESS AND CROWN,
An Appeal lo I.ouli of Wale* (o Re.
IIOII ace All ltiglit* of Succession.
LONDON, July 23.—Lord Salisbury has
written to tho queen urging upon her to |
| exact u promise from Princes Louise of
Walest<> renounce all rights of FVCCCS
sion to the throne.
It is quite on tho cards that Prince Ed
die and Princo Grorgo may dio without
issue, in which case Princess Louise's
children would be in the direct lino of
I succession.
Lord Salisbury quite appreciates tho
fact that the English people would never
tolerate as their sovereign a sou of Lord
Fife, whoso ancestors were more no- j
! bodies 150 years ago.
In the debate on the royal grants in tho I
Jiouso of commons, tho Radicals, undor
I tho leadership of Henry Laboiichorc, in- j
troducod an amendment petitioning tho I
queen lo retrench her household ex- j
penscs, instead of bleeding the taxpayers !
by making them provide for her grand- !
: children.
Tho amendment will, of course, bo lost j
but it will give to the now Radical party
a charico of showing how strong they aro '
, in numbers.

NEENAII, Wis., July 23.—Tho sheriff of J
Waushara county has nrrosted Ferdinand
Knaack at lvaukauua on a warrant '
, charging him with poisoning his wifo.
Kuuack ia a German, about 40 years ;
old, and owns a farm at Springwator, ten
miles from Wautoma. He was married |
last May to a young girl, nnd about a
! week ago she was taken suddenly ill and j
, died. Her stomach was sent to Chicago |
to liavo medical experts examine it, and i
' they concluded that poison caused her
death.
Knaack disappeared from home as soon
as his wife was buried. His lirst wife
died last April rather suddenly, and it is
now thought that ho poisoned her alto.
Knaack instructed his t wo small sons to
tell anyone who asked them how their
stepmother died, that they saw her swal
low some pills about an hour before her
death. The boys did not see her swallow
anything, and told what their father said
to a neighbor, who immediately swore
out a warrant.

Ahief Hubbard Kspeei* Still Morn In

Case—lllll Policy Jusl Now is to Delay
Matter*—There May b a special
Jury Culled.
CHICAGO, July 22.—Tho 6quoalrs are
tumbling over each other in their efforts
to got to tho chief of police and stute's
attorney to tell what thoy know of Camp
No. 20, Clan-na-Gael, and the can.sea
which led to tho murder of Dr. Cronin.
Chief of Police Hubbard suys that the
polloy of tho stato was to delay. Sinoo
tho adjournment of tho special grand
Jury all connected with tlie prosecution
of the caso havo been quiotly at work ac
cumulating now evidence, and their ef
forts thus fur havo been so successful
that they aro in uo hurry to stop tho
process.
Hardly a day passes that somo link in
tho chain of ovldenco against the men
already indletod is not considerably
strengthened or a now one welded, and
fresh light ns t.o the extent and ramilica
tlons of the conspiracy is constantly
dawning upon them.
Tho stream of equoalors from the
membership of Cump 20 lias been stead
ily flowing into tho state's attorney's
office, und its volume is gruvluully in
crouslng until it promises to end in a
perfect flood. Judge Longenocker is in
clinod to think that if he waits a very
iittlo while longer tho monibors who
have not ulready volunteered their tes
timony will bo breaking their nocks in
their efforts to bo the first to reuoh him
with thoir stories.
The July grand jury is about to bo em
pauelled, but as there are 1(50 other
casus waiting their attention, It is now
considered not among the probabilities
thut tho Cronin case will bo considered
by thorn Judge Longenecker says it
will not be brought up unless he secures
more evidence tliau he has now, but ho
does not say lie will not cull a special
grand jury immediately after tho regular
body deposes of the jail cases, and thoro
aro grouuds for believing that ho will
do so.
Tho Information ooncorning tho fre
quent visits of Coughlin und Burko to
Alexander Sullivan's office shortly before
May 4 last Is receiving the careful atten
tion of the authorities, who attach more
Importance to it than they care to admit.
"I don't know what Import unco may
attach to it," said Chief llubbard, this
afternoon. "We are looking into it. how
ever, and of course if we can establish
what the nature of tho conversation at
those interviews was, or tho objects of
tho visits, it may prove to bo very im
portant."
"Are you providing witnesses to go be
fore the grand jury that meets Monday
in connect ion with ..this case?"
"Well, I hardly know what to answer
to that. I don't think so. It is more
likely that tho ease will uot como before
the present grand jury. Our policy for
the present is that of delay."
"Do you really believe that other In
dictments than those already returned,
und against other parties, will be found
| in connection with this caso?"
j The chief paused long before answer
-1 ing, and then said very deliberately:
j "Yes, 1 do."

YANKTON, Dak., July 22.— The little
village of St. Helena, on tho Nebraska
side of tho Missouri, ten miles below
here, is worked up ovor a ghastly discov
ery. Men who wore prospecting in a
chalk cliff in that neighborhood for ma
terial for tho manufacture of comont,
carao upon a small opening in tho Mis
souri river lace of tho rock. It led to a
large cave, in which wcro discovered six
or eight human skeletons lying about iu
disorder. Tho hones have undoubtedly
lain there a long time. Several skulls
wore brought out, of the cuvo and aro ex
hibited by tho people of St. Helena. It
is thought tho skeletons aro those of
emigrants who nought shelter in thocavo
w hen attacked by Indians, and that, they
wore either killed or starved to death.

CHEYENNE, Wy. T., July 23.—Kate
Maxwell, tho noted "Cattle Queen," and
her partner, James Averill, postmaster
at Sweet Water River, Wy. T., havo been
lynched at that place by cowboys.
Tho bodies of tho "rustler" and tho
'Range Queen" dangled from tho same
limb of a big cottonwood.
Tho scene of the lawless but justifiable
Joed of tho midnight riders is on the
Sweet Water River, nour Independence
Hock.
Averill was postmaster at Swcot Water.
Stockmen of that region have suffered
from cattlo thefts for years, but on ac
count of prejudico against the largo con
cerns, it lias been impossible to convict
the offenders, uud the "rustlers" navo
been vory bold. Averill and his partner
have boon the most active. Fifty freshly
branded yearling steers were found in
their herd by a stock detective, who re
ported the fact to the ranchmen.
Tho latter decided to punish tho noto
rious pair, who had hitherto disregarded
warnings to leave the country. About
twenty ranchmen gathered and galloped
to the cabin of Averill and Kate.
Hair a dozen of thorn rushed into the
room, where tho pair and a boy in their
employ woro found.
Iho trio sprang for their weapons, but
were quickly overpowered. Averill beg
ged and whined, protesting his inno
cence, whilo Kate cursed fearfully.
lier blasphemies woro so hoiriblo that
an attempt was made to gag her, but she
strugglod so violently that this was
abandoned, Sho was allowed to ride her
own horso tho tree soloeted for tho exe
cution.
One end of tho rope wa9 fastened
around Kate's neck and tho other around
Avorill's as they sat on their horses.
They were invited to speak.
Kato said that for her mothor's sake
she wanted tho affair kept as (pilot as
posslblo. Sho admitted that the cattlo
had boon stolen.
Sho wanted tho cattlo sold and tho
money given for a homo for homeless
girls.
She bade the boy,who washer nephew,
adieu, and then wound up with a blas
phemous harangue.
Averill said nothing, except that ho
didn't want a certain man to be his suc
cessor as postmaster.
Tho horses were driven from undor
them. Kate was not shot at, Averill's
body was filled with bullets ana tho
lynchers rode away. No inquest will he
held.
Kate Maxwell was one of the most
unique characters in tho west. She was
known and feared In every cattlo owner
from the Canadian lino to the Rio Grande.
Who sho was or where she came from is
not known. For ten years or moro she
had been the leader of a gang of "rust
lers," or cattle thieves, and lias stolen
moro cattlo than any singlo man iu tho
west.
Many efforts have been made to cap
turo her, but none hitherto were success
ful. Lately the depredations of her gang
havo been so great, that tho cowboys
handed together and determined to kill
Averill or drivo them out of tho terri
tciy.
Kato had corao up from tho Indian Na
tion immediately aftor tho opening of
Oklahoma and brought with her several
hundred head of cattlo, which she
"rounded up" on tho way.

Pineapple Cheese.
Tho first pinoapplo clieeso In this
country were made, according to ft re
port of the Connecticut Dairy Commis
sion, in 1808 by Lewis M. Norton, of
Goshen, Conn. His only knowledge of
making tho cheese was derived from
seeing a piece of one that came from
England. A soft Stilton cheese of this
form was made in England without
pressing, of curd solidified by draining,
and then suspended in a net, which
made the impression on the outside. In
1810 a patent was obtained for the me
thod of making this impression with a
net by Mr. Norton of Goshen. He con
tinued making these clieeso from his
own dairy of less than fifty cows from
1808 until 1814, when lie commenced
buying curd from other dairies, and
built., as we suppose, the first cheese
factory in our c nintry. In a few years
many factories were started in other
States for flic manufacture of common
cheese, and the method adopted of pur
chasing milk instead of curd. The man
ufacture of pineapple cheese has been
continued on this place in Goshen sinco
1808, now eighty years. A similar man
ufacture was started in the State of New
York in 1850 bv a son of the inventor.
The product of these two Norton fac
tories is now about 67,000 to 70,000
cheese annually.
Three sizes are now made, as the de
mand for this as well as foreign clieeso
seem to roquiro smaller sizes. There
are other and smaller establishments in
this country for making these cheese,
of which there arc three or four in
Central New York, one in Southern
Michigan and one or two in the North
west.
The market for the common brands of
pineapple cheese appears to be somo
wliat oppressed at this season, the price
being but one or two cents a pound above
that of common cheese. The fancy brands
of the Norton cheese command some
what higher prices.
During 1888 in tho Goshen factory
tho amount of milk purchased Mas about
ono million pounds, making, by usual
o.ilculation of ten pounds of milk for
one pound of clieeso, 1(H),000 pounds of
cheese. Tho number of cheese made in
1888 was about 87,000. Tho number
made in tho Norton factory in Attica,
N. Y., was nearly as large ns in Goshen.
Wo cannot learn that any pineapple
cheeses arc now made in England or on
tho Continent.
Origin of the Curfew,
The curfew is said to havs been intra-'
duced into England by William the;
Conqueror. By that monarch it was
ordained under severe penalties, when
tho curfew bell rang at eight o'clock in
the evening all lights and fires should be
extinguished. There are those who hold
that this was merely the enforcing of an
existing and very common police regula
tion to that eflout. The absolute pro- |
hihition of lights after tho ringing of tho i
curfew bell was abolished by Henry 1.,
in the year 1100, but the practice of tol
ling a bell at a fixed hour in the evening |
was co ntinued, and this, which is stilt j
extant in some places,is a survival of tho I
curfew of mediieval times. At first the ;
common hour was seven o'clock, then it 1
was gradually ndxanced to eight, and in i
some places to nine o'clock; indeed, in !
Scotland,ten o'clock was not an unusual I
hour. The curfew was a regulation most!
useful in those early days, when it was
tho custom to place tho fire in a liolo in
the middle of tho floor, under an open
ing in the roof, to allow the escape of
the smoke. When tho family retired ]
tor the night, tho tiro was extinguished ]
by covering it up; hence the term cou
vrcfeuu or curfew. The regulation was
also serviceable in obliging the women!
to keep in their houses, and thus pre- i
venting night brawls in the street. It is j
believed there is no historical authority |
for tho popular tradition that tho sever- j
ity exhibited by tho Conqueror, in en- j
forcing obedience to the curfew, was!
most particularly designed to prevent \
the English from assembling in secret j
to plan schemes of rebellion against
their Normau lords.—[New York Dis
patch.
Mistaken Intentions.
Dr. Kellmeyer, of Vienna lias proved
by experiments that a man's head of
hair, if left alone, will on an averogo
grow one-third faster and one fifth
longer than a woman's. Our ancestors,
he holds, must have roamed tho woods
in a ooiflfuro resembling the tail of a
first class comet; but purposes of orna
ment had nothing to do with nature's
remarkable lavishncss in that respect.
Her real intent was rather prompted by
considerations of safety specially long
haired individuals being most apt to in
spire their enemies with the requisite
amount of terror. A brawny bipod,
sporting a board a la Justin McCarthy,
and a shock of hair from six to seven
feet long, must,indeed, have had a fair
chance to range his native woods un
molested.—[Cincinnati Enquirer.
