VICTORY up ELI! SHAW
Camden’s Murdered Women the
Victims of Unknown PersOn.
ALMOST A RIOT AT COURT
Women Trampled by :1 Curious
Crowd in the Ruslrto Hear the
Inquest—Shaw Still Held in Jail—
Some Startling. Rumors.
Camden, N. J., Oct. 30..—The Coroner’s
jury finds that Eli Shaw’s mother and
grandmother came to their death at
the hands of some unknown persons.
Shaw is still in jail, held- by a. war--
rant in the hands of the police.
The entire city is in a state of great
excitement over the result of the in-
quest as to the death of Mrs. Emma
Zane and Mrs. Sarah Shaw, mother and
grandmother of Eli Shaw, who is under
arrest, accused of their murder.
Shaw‘s sweetheart, Maybelle Neilson,
who believes in his innocence and who
says she will spend her fortune to prove
it, was on the scene early, and the sym—
pathetic court attendants saw to it
that she reached a. seat near the pris-
oner, unharmed by the crush of specta—
tors.
Hundreds of curious ones have
crossed the river from Philadelphia,
and already at least a dozen women
have been roughly knocked down and
trampled upon by the throng which
besieges the court house, making fran-
tic efforts to gain an entrance to. the
inquest room.
‘\Vomen Badly Injured.
Two of the women were so badly in-
jured that they were taken to the hos-
pital unconscious. Another, who had
fainted, was dragged into a neighbor-
ing house, where she recovered and was
- taken home.
Clothing was torn from men and
women alike, and at one time it looked
as though the police would be unable
to prevent a. riot.
The doors of the court house had to
be closed to keep out the mob, but even
then hundreds refused to go away, and
used every means, fair and foul, to gain
an entrance to the inquest room.
May Prove Him Innocent,
It is expected that witnesses will be
produced who will prove Miss Neilson’s
constant assertion that her fiance is as
innocent as it is'possible for a. man
to be.
These witnesses will, it is alleged,
corroborate Eli Shaw’s story and wipe
out the State’s theory. Both the wit-
nesses are women. Their identity has
not been disclosed, for the reason, it is
stated, that the defence is fearful that
they might be tampered with.
One Woman’s Story.
One of the women, early on the morn- ,
ing of the murder, Oct. 12, heard a pis-
tol shot, but did not get out of bed.
Five minutes later she heard another
shot. She did not move. She was
paralyzed with fear, she says. Then
she heard agonized cries of "‘Murder!
oh, murder! For God’s sake, some one
come!” ‘
The person crying for help, she will
testify, was Eli Shaw. -
The other witnesses not only heard
Eli’s calls for aid, but also his grand-
mother’s. She had been in the family
for years and recognized Mrs. Zane’s
voice. A '
Upsets State’s Claim.
The corroboration of Eli’s story up-
sets the claim of the State that Shaw
committed both murders and spent two
hours removing evidence of his guilt,
breaking windows and creating ap-
pearancesbf burglary.
Before going in to the inquest Miss
Neilson said to a reporter: “At last we
are in a position to prove that .Mr.
Shaw is guiltless. I feel as certain that
he will be a. free man before night as
I do that I am alive. He must be. He
is a brave man, a true man, an inno-
cent man, and when he is released from
this dreadful place I will prove my
faith in him and my love for him by
marrying him immediately, if he so de-
sires.”
SHOT HIS FAIR COUSIN.
“'ccdcn Admits that He ”Tried to
Kill Miss C‘oulters.
Providence, R. 1., Oct. 30.—All the
mystery that surrounded the attempt
to kill Miss Daisy Coulters was cleared
up yesterday when her cousin, Frank
Weeden, confessed that it was he who
fired the shot.
Miss Coulters, who is a student at
Brown University, was shot as she sat
by an open window a few weeks ago,
and was dangerously wounded. The
weapon used was evidently a shotgun,
loaded with slugs. .
The case was a. complete mystery for
some time, but‘her cousin, an erratic
young man who had pestered her with
his attentions, was suspected. He was
arrested, but would not admit any con-
nection with the crime until yesterday.
A FATAL BLOW.
Joseph Brady Was Killed \Vhile
Skylarking in a Saloon.
Philadelphia, Oct. 30.—-—Joseph‘Brady,
aged 23, was killed in a. saloon yester-
day by a blow on the solar plexus.
The man had been Skylarking with
Joseph McGreal and Harry Meehan
and other friends. Brady offered to al-
low his companions to test their
strength by striking him on the chest.
One blow struck him too low, landing
on about the place where Fitzsimmons
landed on Corbett.
Brady’s friends thought he was only.
stunned. but all efforts to revive him
were of no avail.
Predicts Earthquakes in Mexico.
City of Mexico, Oct.- 30.—-Juan N.V
Contreras, the earthquake and weather
prophet, predicts that a. series of very
severe shocks will be felt in this city
from Nov. 2 to Nov. 4 and from Nov. 6
to Nov. 8.
much uneasiness here. The faith in
Contreras' earthquake prognostications
is very strong, owing to the fact that
he has never gave false warnings. His
latest success was the prediction of the
severe earthquake which visited the
Isthmus of Tehuantepec.
To Look for the Andree Balloon.
'London, Oct. 30.—A dispatch to the
Daily Mail from Copenhagen says that
Capt. Sverdrup, of Dr. Nansen’s ship,
the Fram, will start immediately with
an expedition for Prince Charles Prom-
ontory to look for the Andree balloon.
This prediction has caused.

sion been confined to bed. Doan’s Kid-

7 LlVELY sour A'l‘ SAN FsANCIsco. U
‘Kld” Lavigne Whips Joe Woloott. the
Colored Fighter, in Twelve Bounds.
San Francisco, Oct. 30.-——The greatest
crowd at a prize fight since the Fitz-
simmons-Sharkey mill‘ saw the Wal-
cott-Lavigne battle last night at. the
Occidental A. C. in the Mechanics’ Pa-
villion. Fully 8,000 persons were in the
place, and they were'drawn not only
from San Francisco, but from every
town of any size in the State as well
as the East. ,
According to the articles the men
were to fight twenty rounds at 135
pounds, to weigh in at 6 o’clock this
evening. The club guaranteed a. purse
of $4,500, or 60 per cent. of the gross re-
ceipts.
At 9.45 o’clock the men entered the
ring, Walcott being first and Lavigne
fOIIOWing immediately. Behind Wal-
cott were O’Rourke, Joe Cotton and
George Dixon. Lavigne had as esquires
TedAlexander, Billy Armstrong and
Billy Lavigne. Eddie Graney was in—
troduced as referee, with the announce-
ment that if he saw anything about the
affair that looked questionable he
would declare it a fake and walk out
of the ring.
Both men fought like demons for sev-
eral rounds, but neither seemed to be
able to get in any telling blows, most
of their leads, particularly Lavigne’s,
being wild. The fight, although fast,
was clumsy.
The ninth round both men fought
like Wildcats. Lavigne .seemed short
of steam, while Walcott was strong
and did some hard work. The men
were, clinched most of the time, the
only effective blow being by Lavigne,
who landed over Walcott’s heart.
In the tenth round Walcott came up
limping, and it was said that he was
faking cramps. Lavigne‘went at him,
scoring on the body and jaw. He re-
ceived about as good as he gave, how-
ever. The pace was perceptibly slower,
and Lavigne was covered with blood.
The referee was blood-spattered from
parting the men, who'were clinched
most of the time.
Eleventh Round.—Walcott appeared
to be strong in clinches, but Lavigne
continued to follow and play for the
body. Walcott found a. way of stop-
ping the Kid’s drives, however, and
the latter transferred his attention to
Waleott’s jaw. He landed some telling
rights there. Lavigne seemed to be
suffering from cramps as'the round
closed. . _
Twelfth Round—Lavigne was a sorry
looking fighter with his blood—covered
face, but he was strong and kept up
the pace. He planted drive after drive

boy was assisted to his corner by

ended in Lavigne’s favor.
At the close of the twelfth round

could fight no more on account of an

by Lavigne, who did the most of the
leading and landed nearly all the pun-

DUN’S WEEKLY REVIEW.
Retail Trade Good, but Orders for
Future Delivery Slack.
New York, Oct. 30.'—~The weekly trade
review of R. G. Dun & Co., issued to-
day, says:
“The testing of retail trade is in
progress, but results are remarkably
retarded by long-continued mild
Weather and also by the fever in south—
ern districts. Even from that quarter
some large orders lately received show
better distribution than was. yet ex—
pected. In spite of unseasonably warm
weather, which greatly hinders retail
dealings in Winter goods at all points
east of the plains, the large number of
supplementary orders with urgent
pressure for quick delivery make it
clear that the sales in ‘many branches
have exceeded the expectation of deal-
ers, so that replenishment of stocks is
not yet finished. Meanwhile wholesale
trade and orders to manufacturers
have been smaller than when the rush
was greatest, but have nevertheless
been large for this stage, even in a
year of general prosperity, for the pay-
ments through the principal clearing
houses have‘for the week been 3.9 per
cent. larger than in the same week of
1892, and for the month 6.]. per cent.
“Heavy engagements for outgoing
wheat, covering 4,000,000 bushels this
week, affect monetary prospects, but
still more the produce markets, for the
Atlantic exports are large already, 3,-
864,649 bushels, flour included, against
2,344,844 for the week last year, and in
four weeks 13,904,557, against 9,817,058
last year. Vl’estern receipts are not
quite equal to” last year’s for the week,
but have been 27,969,288 bushels for four
weeks, against 28,756,644 last year. The
market advanced 2%c., With No. 1 red
actually sold above $1 here, while spec-
ulation at St. Louis is pushing prices
yet higher.
“Wool markets have become quiet.
The market for goods is not active, 'as
prices have been so far advanced as to
hinder buying, in many cases inten-
tionally, until the future is more clear,
and the mills have ahead quite as large
contracts as they just now desire. The
boot and shoe industry is in a similar
position, though leather is gradually
weakening with buying restricted to
immediate needs, but the shops have
plenty of orders ahead, and are unable
now- to get Spring orders at prices cor-
responding to those of materials. Hides
at Chicago have slightly advanced,
with some further large purchases.
“Failures for the week have been 219
in the United States, against 270 last
year, and 25 in Canada, against 40 last
year."
Trust Fund for u Parrot.
.Boston, Oct. 30.-——By the will of Mary
