The garments. all blood-stained. were in a lot of garbage found by a scavenger. just where the police refuse to say.

The husband's new suit excited the suspicion of his asso- ciates. who informed the police. Cronin's see when found had been slit from neck to w ' . The vest hadhen nearly severed in twain. and the under-clothing had been out in a similar manner. It is inferred that vciuabls clues have been developed by the discovery of this clothing. LATHR.~-~The fact is now rovsn that the garments were not Cronin s at all. but belonged to Albert Hurmg. a barber. who commuted suicide five weeks ago. Luke Dillon said today : " i am confi- dent that the murderers of Dr.( ronln will be in custody before two weeks have passed. 3 shall have a number of parties arrested before long on suspicion. l have some strong circumstantial evidence in my osseesicn. and shall show good grounds or any action 1 take.” In the Cronin inquest yr sterday ex. Detective thlcu nnci seVrral other incur bers of the Clan-nailsel were examined, but nothing elicited which connected them with the murder. The jury and the coroner had a conference during the recess and the jurors informed the coroner they were satisfied that there had been a conspiracy to murder Cronin. An afternoon paper quotes Attorney Longenscksr as saying: “ Woodrutf has told a straight story to the Chief and it is now certain that he is the man that drove the wagon. Coughlln and P. O. Sullivan are in it now." “ Who does Woodrufl say were the other two men ‘2’ " He does not know them." .1. D. Haggrrty, a railroad clerk. testified that after the trial of Dr. Cronin, Alex- ander Sullivun sold him Cronin was a scouudrel art‘. 5. menace in V's'as Irish cause. It was the impression of witness that Sul- livan was trying to express the opinion that Cronin should be i-xterminnted. Wit- ners was of the same opinion at that time. The jury rendered their verdict last night. i . boy found from the evidence thct 9. number of persons were parties to the plot and conspiracy to murder Dr. Crown. and that Daniel Conghlin. Patrick O. Sullivan. Alexander Sullivan and one Woodrul’f aiics Black were either rincipals. accessories or had guilty knowls go of said plot and conspiracy to murder said Cronin and conceal his body. and should be held to answer to the grand jury. They also believe that other persons were engaged in this plot, or had guilty knowledge of it.and should be ap rehi nded and hold to the grand jury. hey further state that this plot or conspiracy. in its conception and execution. is one of the most foul and brutal that has ever come to their knowledge. and they recommend that the proper wutborities offer a large reward for the discovery and apprehension of all of those engaged in.“ in any way. They further state that in their judgment all secret societies whose objects are ruch as the cvxdence shows theft of the "Clsn-na-Gcol " or “ United Brothabcod " to be are not in harmony with. and are injurious.to Ameri- can institutions ; they hope that future vigor end vigilance by the police force will more than compensate for past neglect by a portion of the force in this respect. A special grand jury has been summoned to consider the Cronin case. Detectives state that J. J. Moronsy, arrested in New York. is a member of the “ Clan lie-Gael " Executive Committee of which Luke Dillon is a member. Moroney. it is stated. has been identified as the man who purchased the furniture which went to the Carlson cottage. and also as the person who rented the cottage. McDonald was his oompanidn.

It is declared that the (leer is definitely committed to a panslavist p ilioy. involving critical developments which are bound to have a violent end. It is said that the Czar told the Shah, and hotly too. that if while in England he should make any concession unfavorable to Russia. 100.000 soldiers on the frontier would be made to march into Persia. . It is reported that during the Shah’s visit a secret treaty was made between Russia. and Persia for the temporary annexation of Northern Persia to Russia in certain uses. The Czar has bestowed a dowry of a million roubles on Princess Militss of Montenegro. who has been betrothed to Grand Duke Peter of Russia. Signor Crispi appears to have obtained it definite pledge of German aid in the event of hostilities with France from a colonial or any other dispute. Austria is only oom- mftted to the first trusty. and is not bound to make common cause with Italy in every quarrel with France. A London cablegram says: The Czar‘s extreme favoritism to the Prince of Mon. tenegro has aroused the anger of all his southern neighbors, and in none of the Balkan Slates dms the ill feeling run so high as in Fist-viii.

Emil Charles Pfeilfer. of Cambridge. states that a student of physiological psychology named Martenfeldt is the onl- prit who is responsible for the “Pigs in Clover " atrocity. says an exchange. Mar- tenfeldt had been making researches in some determinations of the sonsitivsncsa of the tactile sense under the direction of the great Helmholtz. cud found that thsabilit to balance a morble on a perfectly smoct piece of plate glass depended upon the delicacy 0 what is known as the reaction time. that is. depends upon the quickness of the nerve-current in receiving the im- pression that the marble will roll. sending the impression to the controlling organs in the cerebellum that contract or relax the muscles of the arm and the degree of re- spcnsiveuess in the nervous end-organs of the fingers which hold the icon of glass. Martenfeldt found that if) he plead the marble in the centre of the plate and marked four or five spots on the edges of the plate and then asked the subject with which he experimented to tip the plate so that the marble would run across a articu- lar spot. it considerable time elapse before the subject 3; mid determine how to tip the plots to sucks. a. marble roll as required. When liisrtenfrids complicated the apparatus end placed rings of pesteboard about the centre of the plate. with holes for the marble to run through. the average rreulti of his experiments gave a remarka- bls psychological law. which was that the “ reaction time" depended u n the size of the circles of pasiebom'rl wioh made an impression upon the field of vision of the retina. and was in direct proportion to the diameters of the circles expressed in millimteres. He sent one’ of his plates to Dr. Herman Meyer. of Philadelphia. where it was seen by C. M. Orandall. the toy d visor. w Fl V I ll Al'l‘sfllfl'fl DBOvWNID. A. Overloaded Boat Capsiles Ottawa River.
