Marphy Saw Mrs. n land's Ei dence Harred.- Mrs. Annie Krakalow was placed ou the witness stand in the murder case in the circuit court vesterday afternoon after both sides had done with Arthur Treglown. Mrs. Kraka low said she was a neighbor of the defendants at Coal Valley, and while she dil not know any of the details of the crime beroud what she had heard, she noticed that the day previ oils to the birlh the curtains in the Treglown house were drawn, some thing unusual. Coroner I.. V. Kokhart told of his trip to the Vallev Nov. 27, and con ducting; a hearing relative to the birth of an unknown child. John Treir- lown, he said, denied all knowledge of the existence of the infant or of its burial. Margaret Treglown told the curoner that a ehild had been born but it was lorn dead. She said she had given the body to a Moline wo man. She afterward admitted to the coronor that the IkhIv was uurieu in the Treglown yard, but would not specify as to location. L'pon the strength of this testimony Coroner Kekhart said he arrested John Treg lown, lacked him in the village jail. and with a number of townspeople went to the Ireglown house ami ile- mamled to know where the remains of the child were buried. Mrs. Treg lown took them to the barn and point ed out where the infant s body was concealed. Condition of Remain. Postmaster T. J. Murphy, of Coal Valley, who saw the boJy disinterred, related at length the condition of the remains when removed from the box a raisen box. the lid of which was nailed shut. The legs and arms were doubled up. The body was nude save tbe covering which the Hour sack afforded. Around the ueck there was a rag tightly folded, while in the head and neck there were distinct depres sions. The court would not permit M Murphy to tell any conversations he might have had tyth the defend ants, in which either implicated the other. The eross-cxaminatiou of the witness was directed chiefly to show ing that the condition of the body when discovered might have buen caused by the weather. Testimony as to earing for the body was given by Undertaker Wilhaui Mvers. of Coal Vallev, and Undertaker 15. F. Knox, of this c:tv, the latter tating that it had been liirncd over to mm Dec. 'JD, and was now in the same condition it was then. Judge Kamsav would not permit the introduction of the testimony of Mrs. Catharine Hyland, of Coal "Val ley. If allowed to tell her story she ttould have said that before the" birth af Acnie's child Mrs. Treglown came to her and asked her for medicine which alie intended using for a crimi nal purpose. I).

Quite apparent is it that the Uuion. even at this stage of preliminary dis cussioui of the spring campaign, has f Hind itself afflicted with a mo.-l dis tressing and discouraging caso of ! utter demoralization. Adoptiog as a 1 Suggestion the announcement that a meeting of the republican city-towu-ship committee is to le held this evening at the olliee cf Chairman Donaldson "to agree upon the call for the nomination of candidates to be voted for on April 4," it proceeds to forecast what the committee at its meeting tonight is apt to do. The primaries, the morning authority on the movements of the local party of republicanism assures its readers, have leeu virtually settled on for Thursday evening, March 16, with the convention the following day the 17th. But the Union is not next ineith erof the announcements attributed to it. There has been no meeting called for tonight at Chairman Donaldson's olliee not that the chairman himself knows about. The meeting of which the Union has indistinctly heard of was heid Thursday evening of this week, and on that occasion it was practically determined to bold the primaries on the 15th. and not in the evening, but during the afternoon, as required by the primary election law, a phase of local repub lican polities to which the party stands committed, a fact that the Union seems to have lost track of, notwithstanding that it was so con spicuous in bringing the party under such legulations iu the ante-post-oQice appointment days. And the convention will follow on the 17th, which being St. Patrick's day, the morning paper felicitates itself, is a line opportunity for such a job. Just where the philosophy of the argument comes in is not made clear. Seeks a Hold Champion. But the oracle goes ou to discuss candidates ou the republican side. All are ready, ever eager, it says discus sing the situation from the republican standpoint, to '-catch sight of a Plumed Knight or a Black Eagle in our politics." Then it prays aloud that a bold champion may step for ward from the ranks and unfurl his banner and see the enthusiasm with which lie will be swept away, etc. It then goes on to speak of the way the republican hunt for candidates is pro gressing and despite the memories of its last complimentary reference to McConochie agaiu in theante-postof-tice appointment days it says he may vet bu shouted to to "come out here Mac," while the next shout mav be Where are von. Frank?" and Frank's cheery voice witf resiiond, "1 am here." Ah. 1 here Stay Tln-re. So that the campaign, as the Union views it, is a case ot "Ah, lucre: with the candidates so far in the liehl McConochie and Knox but when election day comes around the people of Uock Island who know when thev are well off will say to either, or any other who mav come out ot the woods in response to the flirtation now going on on Eighteenth street, "Stay there: Richest Megicaron Farth.
