Been Miss Robinsdn’s Lover."
N EW YORK, Aug.10.—.—.A clew to the mu;-
derer of Hanna Robinson, and a very 1m.
nortant one, was discovered in a peculiar
vmanner. VV' bile a party. 'of men were
' searching for a. runaw ay horse at Ridge-
.rwood they Came upon the animal standim;
"directly over four letters. Upon being ex-
amined they were found to be addressed
I to the murdered girl and signed “Wallis.”
i It is supposed that the girl’s murderer in
l
l
- his flight dropped the communications.
They were turned over to the coroner.
That Ofiicia‘. refuses to make the 11' contents
knOwn. The pOliCC are now searching for
the author. A detective Obtaineda picture
of the murdered girl taken in life with
her admirer, Charles Smally.
Identified at u Cemetery.
He learned from the clergyman that the ‘
girl was in the habit of going to Ever-
greeus cemetery and placing flowers on
the graves of her, nieces. The detective
went to the cemetery and showed the
photograph to the“ police Officer. detailed
there. The Ofii. 91' did not remember having
seen the man before, but instantly recog-
nized the girl as a frequenter of the
cemetery.
He said that he saw her on Saturday
ever: ing talkizg earnestly with a man
about twenty-fire.- She seemed to be re-
monstratin’g,r With him about something
and showed “him a. number of letters,
: which, the police Officer says, the young
' man Several times tried to get possession
of. The man was very affectionate and
the girl seemed to be equally devoted. On
. one occasion tlzeman endeavored to snatch
theletters. 'Asjit Was closing time before
Walked over to the couple and Ordered
them to leave. That was the last he saw~
of them. He described the man as being
of fair complexion with alight mustache.
He “(1‘5 neatly dressed and'3 wore adark
suit of clot-hes and a derby hat. The be-
lief is that the girl instead of coming to
Brooklyn as she had told her mistress on
Saturday afternoon, got; off the train at
East New York, met her lover and pro-
ceeded to the cemetery with him.
The Old,- Old Story.
Therpolice believe that it is the old, Old
story. Love, promise Of marriage and
betrayal, and that the girl’s murderer is
no other than the young man seen in the
cemetery. They believe that the young
man, failiu g to get the letters by entreaty
or threats, strangled the girl and took the
letters by force. Another incident in con-
nectionwith the murder is the finding of
apocketbook in the station at Jamaica
belonging to Richard Weber. The theory
is that Richard Weber is the man who
gave the name of Charles Weber and tried
to identify the body Of the girl soon afte
the murder. The body of the 111 urdei ed
girl has been buried in Mount" Olivet cem-
tery.

. . Names
' POTTSVILLE, Pa, Aug'. ‘10.'—Six' men
were fatally burned and seven others
badly injured by an explosion Of flredamp .
in York colliery, which“ is 1, 300 feet deep.
For some time the men have been wOrk-
ing a- tunnel southward through .the coal,
and each day have been warned to use
their safety lamps because of the rapid ac-
cumulation of gas.
. Gas Let Into the Tunnel.
One of the men employed was under
Contra'ctorDolan, and most of them live
in NewJersey. They had put in a big
uel vein to which they were tunnelling.
At the same time the blast opened a great
leader of gas, which rushed in where they
were.
' How the ExploEiOn Was Caused.
After the earth and rocks had stopped
falling, the miners went in with their
naked lamps. In the meantime the whole
place had become filled with gas, Which
was ignited from the lamps and a tre-
mendous explosion shook the whole mine.
The fire ran out ,through the entire tunnel,
burning every man who had not presence
of mind enough to leap into the ditch on
the lower side and let it pass over.
The Casualties.
The fatally injured are John Corboss,
Hungarian; Scott Br ubaker, Pottsville;
Harry Zimmerman, Pottsville;s son of the
inside foreman, Pottsville; Charles SOers,
J ames Miller and John Connors, York-
ville.
All of them were horribly burned about
the face and breast, the flames even going
to their lungs. They were carried from
the mine and are being cared for in one of
the mine buildings. It IS not possible for
any of them to live.
These May Recover.
The other seven who were injured are
burned about the face and hands, but it' is
thought they will recover. The explosion
fired the woodwork of the mine and it took
ten sticks of dynamite to extinguish the
flames.
