OPINION or concurs MILES. two “on Are Under Surveillance and May Bo Arrested Shortly--Eow the Misc creunts Planned Their Crime. Theory of the PoliceJ YONKERS, N. Y., Oct. 24 --Cor0ner Miles today began in earnest the search for the murderer of Hamlin J. Andrus, who was killed in his office by a bomb ex- plosion on Wednesday. All along the coroner has contended that Mr. Andrus’ death was not the result of an accident, as Was 'said to be the case by the police, and all along he has scofled at the theory of suicide. Mr. Andrus, he said, was the victim of an assassin. When he was asked on what grounds he based this theory. he refused to answer. It was said that he was possessed of information which he re- fused to reveal, but he stoutly denied this when he was questioned. That he did possess such information was proved later, v'ihen he told or the result of the investi- gation which he made in the wrecked of< fioe. Soon after the explosion on Wednes- day the cor'oner, guided by one of the com~ pany’s employees. want into the office col. l r and carefully searched for wires or i rings by which a bomb might have been explo ed on the floor above. He did find wires nd traced them to a set of drycell biltteries placed on one of the cellar Walls, but when he sfibke of them the employee who was with him said that they were a part of the circuit which operated the of- fice telephone. This explanation satisfied the coroner for the time, but he kept thinking the matter over and decidedthat the batteries and wires needed a closer investigation. Without informing any one of his suspi- cions, be secured the services of Alder- man Nu'gent of Yonkers, who is an elec- tric an, and, in company with John E. An us, a brother of the dead man, and two etectives called from New York’, they made a second search in the cellar, apply- ing themselves particularly to the batteries and the wires which the coroner had dis- covered on Wednesday. The batteries, foil? in number, were of the ordinary dry cell type, connected in series. They were brand new, two of them still being in the wrapping paper in which they had been inciosed at the factory where they were made. From the battery one set of wires ran across the beams hold- ing the floor, entered the room above through an opening made for a gas pipe, vdbre strung along the wainscotlng under the ofice safe and ended under the desk at which Hamlin Andrus stood when he was killed. A Piausible Theory. It is believed by those who traced the wires‘that they were attached to the bomb which killed Mr. Andrus and wrecked the 0 as. The bomb itself, they believe, was hung on the: wall several. feet from ‘the floor and close under the‘“ bottom of *the desk. The wires which led from the other side of the battery were the ones used to close the circuit and send through the bomb the current which exploded it. They phased through a partition into another part of the cellar, and in a series of loops suspended from gas pipes led to the fur- riéice at one end. Back of this furnace they were arranged so that the circuit could be made or broken at will. I The contrlvance was very rude, but sh w’c‘d some little ability where the wires 08316 together. One was turned back on itself and made into a loop. Through this 100p the other wire passed, and it also was turned ack and fast ed on itself. The two wlr s were thus nected by the five loops. When this had been done, the wires were pulled so that the loops were elon- gated. Where they touched the insulation Was scraped from each one for about an inch. One wire was securely fastened, so that its loop could not move. The other was allowed to have some play and Was fastened to a eight a egof _a pic of old iron, Whig]. allege} to ffll,.wc 11d tighten it and bring the two loops togeth- er where they had been scraped. This ‘would complete the circuit and send a current through the wires which led to Mr. Andrus’ desk. The weight which operated this contrivance hung on a string which led up through a grating and en- tered a small closet in the yard. The string was fastened to a nail inside of the closet. The police are inclined to look askance at this find of the coroner’s. Captain Mangln had his men examine the cellar, and they say that they saw no wires and no batteries. “If there are wires and batteries there,” the police say, “they were put there by some one who had access to the office.” Police and Coroner at Odds. The police do not deny that the wires might have escaped them in their search, but they say that it could not possibly have been the work of a person not con- nected with theworks. As a result of this difference a coolness has sprung up betwoen Coroner Miles and Police Captain Mangin, and local government affairs in Yonkers are badly strained. If John E. Andrus, brother of the dead man, is correct in his suspicions, there will be arrests in Yonkers before many hours have passed. “My brother,” he said, “was undoubt- edly the victim of anarchists. He was murdered. and we expect to have the mur- derers under arrest. Murderers, I say, because I believe that more than one per- son was concerned in the affair!” All the wires connected with the batter- ies and supposedly leading to the bomb Were new and had evidently been in place not more than two or three days at the most. They were ordinary cotton covered bell‘wires, and it is said that they are similar to wires that are in use in the chemical works. Both the coroner and John Andrus, though, profess to believe that the men who had access to the works are guiltless of any complicity in the ex.. plosion. The closet where the string ended is close to the main building, and the po- lice say that a man could easily have made his way from one structure to the other without being seen. Coroner Miles, who first discovered the wires and the batteries, sold: “It is true that we have two men under surveillance, but of course there is no pos- itive proof against them at present. John Andrus employed the electrician and the detective, and it is probable that he knows more about their suspicions than I do. One thing sure—I up) satisfied that Ham- lin Andrus was deliberately murdered. If the two men We suspect should try to leavetown, we shall have them arrested at once, but unless they do so we will con- tinuc our investigation at some length bo- _ fore making our suspicions public.’.’_, I poisonous. Its Sensational Rise Followed by the Tumble to 75 Cents. THE REAL CAUSE OF IT ALL. Dun &: Co.’s “Weekly Review Attributes It to an Extraordinary Foreign De- mand—Other M'arkets—-—Fnilures Reported For the _Week. New YORK, Oct. 24—8. G. Dun & Co. ’s weekly review of trade says: The event of the week has been the sen- sational advance of wheat to 83 cents for cash on Tuesday, a riseof 5% cents, and its fall to 75 cents on Thursday. The rise was evidently magnified ‘by covering of , speculative sellers who imagined the ad- vance had gone tooofar, but was at bottom, based on an extraordinary. foreign de- mand, which has engaged grain vessels from all Pabiflc as well as Atlantic ports for months ahead. How great the short- age in ordinary European supplies may be is the point of doubt and speculation, but none new questions that shipments from the Pacific coast to India and the decrease in Russian yield are important, and the buying of enormous quantities for export, with engagements of freight room at high- er rates, expresses the belief of European dealers. The political influence of the rise, which averages about 20 cents at Western markets, is potent in various branches of trade, giving greater confi- dence in operations for the future and re .moving doubt as to the money market. Nor is this influence lessened by the reac- tion this week after short sellers had cov- ered and elevators had been filled and credits had been strained to hasten grain forward. The advance of rates by the Bank of England to 4 per cent is meant to draw gold-from other countries for Amer- ican requirements, which it is evident the bank expects to be heavy. Shipments of gold from Europe and Australia have al- ready been $70,988,928 and actual receipts $57,707,510. Wheat exports from the Pacific coast are large, and over 500,000 bushels per day have been engaged ahead for some time. The Atlantic exports, about 900,000 bush- els larger than last year for the week, have been in October 6,570,213 bushels, flour included, against 5,086,388 last year. It is worthy of note that western roads are complaining of a car famine, the demand for movement to market being so great, though the actual receipts for three weeks at western ports have been 21,193,716 bushels against 23,061,544 last year, fol- lowing a much increased movement in the quarter ending with September. Corn and Cotton. Corn moves largely and at lower prices, having declined 2 cents for the week. Cotton has remained without change at 7.94 cents, with only moderate transac. tions and heavy receipts from plantations. Estimates of yield vary all the way from Mr. Neill’s 9,000,000 bales to much less than 8,000,000, but the impression grows that the yield will be large. Speculation in stocks was stimulated by the advance in wheat and the large move- ment and by political conditions. The advance in railroad stocks averaged $1.13 per share, and in trust stocks $1.26, with a general feeling that foreigners will be buying before long. that the unlocking of boarded gold will bring many buyers into market, and that improvement in busi‘ ness will soon make past earnings forgot- ten. West bound tonnage in October has been remarkably small except in coal, but east bound has been large in breadstufi’s and provisions, though the Chicago state- ment for three weeks covers only 194,418 tons against 254,229 last year, but lake and rail shipments are the largest since 1892. The lake movement is heavy be- cause there is less pressure thari' before to move ore. Earnings in two weeks of Co- tober have been more favorable than in any other month this year, 5.9 per cent less thgp last ear and 6,4 less than in 1892, although he trunk lines and other western lines, exclusive of the Grangers, report less than in September. The moss strikgfi fepture of industrial returns is t 1e nu 'er of contracts condi- tioned upon the election. These already are enough to make business rather lively for a time, and many others are pending which will probably be held back until Nov. 1. The buying of materials not only advances prices, but induces larger pur- chases of the finished products without conditions. In boots and shoes this is more noticeable than in other lines, and many orders are being placed at an ad- vance which were held back for some weeks. Leather, Iron and Steel. Leather has risen 1% per cent, with .a general demand, though mostly in hem- lock sole and union, and hides at Chicago have been advanced still further by pack- ers, though country hides do not rise at all, and some are lower, but the average of all is .6 per cent higher. To the claim that hides are scarce it is answered that 443,200 cattle have been received at four chief western markets in October against 447,400 last year and 500,300 in 1894, de- creasing less than the reported decrease in output of leather. Buying of bessemer pig at Pittsburg causes a slight advance, and all markets are strong for pig, but not for finished products. Very low prices are made for speedy delivery by mills wanting work. But the tone of the market is better, and a decided increase of orders appears in plates, about 3,000 tons for building ves- sels 0n the lakes and in structural work at the west, owing to contracts taken at Chicago for buildings at Boston, Toronto, Detroit and Minneapolis. There is also a great demand expected for cars, and the bar association offers to sell iron until Nov. 6 to jobbers and large buyers at 1.05, while steel bars are selling largely at 1 cent. A reduction in nails is expected. But the rail season is over, and the billet pool has little business. A sale of about 5,000,000 pounds was made of lake copper at 10% cents to domestic consumers. Tin is a shade highcrvat 12.80 cents. The movement of currency to the in. terior has been only $3,500,000 for the week, and the market for commercial loans has been dull. The volume of busi- ness shown by exchanges has been 8.7 per cent less than last year and 9.6 per cent less than in 1892. Failures for the week have been 274 in the United States against 231 last year and '50 in Canada against 38 last year. Thieves Fight Detectives. CLEVELAND, Oct. 24.—-A pitched battle took‘ place today between a squad of rail- road detectives and freight car thieves at Colllnwood, a suburb. A fusillade of shots were exchanged, and Michael Ryan, one of the thieves, was fatally shot. The oili- cers had watched the gang break open a car and enter it. They then surrounded the car, and the fight began. . .._.__n ,_ _ THE LITTLE FRENCH GIRL. She is a Demure Little Maid and Very Un- like American Children. THE EVENING GAZETTE However innocent she may be, a lit— ‘ tlc French girl is much more of a lit- tle woman than a. child of any other nationality. She does not romp; she , been sleeping. is demure and quiet in her games, which are often imitations of a grown person’s life. She is trying“ to learn to be the mistress of her house by means Of her dolls, furniture, kitchen and dishes. Feminine arts are still a part of every well-arranged French edu cation. Men really care more for these accomplishments than for 0th- OI'S. as they; make stay-at-home wives l l ! l 3 who look after their households; and ‘ as a French woman’s principal aim is _ to please her future husband, every ‘ mother prepares her daughter for this end. This is why she does not per- ‘mit too close an intimacy with little boy cousins, because ten years later a jealous husband would take a dis- 9 like to these friendly cousins; nor would he like his wife’s bosom friends, in whom she confides, and who never leave her any better. - Mothers, therefore, permit few if any intimacies, and these are all Win- nowed and selected'with the greatest care'. One advantage of this system is that the name of friend is not care— lessly bestowed right and left; it takes time and good reasons for simple ac~ quaintances to rise to that rank. The mother not only wards off little boy- cousius and intimate girl-friends, but she discourages the little girl in show- ing off her knowledge out of the class room, for she is fully aware that noth- ing could be less attractive in the eyes . of the expected lord and master than a blue stocking. ‘ A bright little girl I could name had by chance picked up some as- tronomical scraps, together with other scientific facts, which allowed her to shine n0w~and thee. One evening, while playing in the garden, she heard a friend of her father’s ex- claim, “What a. dazzling star!” “That is not a star, sir,” she said; “it is a planet.” Her mother was in des‘ pair, for she would rather a. hundred times have found her ignorant than have seen her “show 0ft,” or capable of committing the enormity of contra- dicting an older person. “I hope,” she said, jestingly, as a sort of ex- cuse, “that when she is eighteen the poor little thing will have forgotten a great part of what she knows to- day’”—Th.

Babe absent mindedly swallowed the blanket on which it had Since that time Babe tric powers to digest the blanket. But ton flannel, refused to yield to diges- tion, and it became a serious question strain much longer. It was deter- the impediment. At 9 o‘clock this morning Babe was taken to the University Medical Col- lege. at Tenth and Campbell streets, and placed on an operating table in a lecture room. It was extremely lively as to the first four feet of body and heavy as to the other four feet. The ampitheatre was filled with med- ical students, doctors and visitors. Mrs. Harden stood by Babe, and en- couraged it to endure the coming or- deal. Dr. L. Rosenwald took off his coat, rolled up his sleeves, and an. uounced that he was. ready to relieve Babe of its burden. Babe ran its forked tongue in and out, caressing Mrs. Harden’s cheeks and hands. Even the medical students shuddered. Babe responded gracefully to the chloroform and was insensible. An incision five inches long was made in the belly of ”the snake and hardly a drop of blood escaped. But the blan- ket was there and was drawn forth without trouble. It had been rolled into a cigar shaped cylinder about two feet long, and was as hard as a brick. It was covered with gastric juice, which was futilely endeavoring to do its work. The blanket looked as though it had been compressed by machinery. It had to be soaked in water before it could be unfolded. The stomach of the snake was as clear as a whis- tle, and after the blanket had been removed was as empty as a. drum. Nine stitches were made in closing the wound, and the snake was taken out into the alley for fresh air. It was soon surrounded by students, small boys and colored women. In about five minutes its lungs filled with air, and its forked tongue ran in and out, and Mrs. Harden, who was anxiously watching it, gave a sigh of relief. “I’m glad my Babe didn’t die,” she exclaimed. “I couldn’t spare my baby.
