wherein the poison was found in the lower
bowel and for that reason lie ordered the
body again dug up and that organ re
moved for examination. Meanwhile Han
nah Hall, Falk's mother-in-law, is in jail

ALDERMEN ENTER I
VIGOROUS DENIAL
RYAN AND HEANY SAY BELMONT
MiNE HAS NOT BEEN FLOODED
FROM THE CAMBERS.
HAVE CHARGE OF THE LATTER
Brand as Maliciously False Rumor Set
Afloat to Effect that a Bulkhead
Has Been Blown in.
A rumor published this morning emanat
ing from the Heinze headquarters to the
effect that the Belmont mine was being
flooded by water from the Cambers work
ings, has called forth a vigorous denial
from Aldermen M. Ryan and Patrick
Heanny, who have the Cambers under their
care.
The story alleged that a bulkhead be
tween the Cambers and the Belmont had
been blown out and the water allowed to
run into the Belmont.
In speaking of the affair today Messrs.
Heany and Ryan stated that they had
owned a lease in the Cambers, which ex
pired recently. Atfer the expiration of
the lease these gentlemen were employed
I by Mr. Gillie to take care of the workings
I and protect the property.
1 Mr. Heany was highly indignant when
shown the statement alleged to have eman
ated from Max Fried, to the effect that
the bulkhead had been removed by the
r Cambers people.
"You can say for myself and Mr. Ryan
that we brand the statement as an unquali
'. fled falsehood. We do not know who is
it responsible for it, but whoever he is the
above applks to him.
"\VWe have watched this property care
fully and there has been no one down
there to molest that bulkhead, and if it
I has been removed it was done from the
Heinze side. We have been tanking water
all the time and none of it has gone into
the Belmont. You can make this denial
as strong as you please.
"This report has been circulated mta
liciously, and we wish to brand it as alb.o
; lutely false."

PEARSON HAD THE BEST
OF ITALIAN TROUBLE
Although It Appears That the American
Consul Was Wrong in Offering Af
front to Italian Railway Man.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.
Rome, Oct. 26.-From the political in
quiry it appears that Richmond Pearson,
formerly United States consul at Genoa
and now minister to Persia, as announced
Saturday, was fined in default $60 and
$15 costs for insulting an Italian rail
road official on December 20o, zgoo, was
completely within his right in complain
ing of the behavior of the railroad official
referred to, but it is alleged that Mr.
Pearson was himself wrong by insulting
the official.
Mr. Pearson claims the immunity en
joyed by the diplomatic body, but it seems
when the incident occurred he had not
yet been appointed minister to Persia.
It is also asserted that his letter to the
United States embassy here, asking to have
the sentence annulled, is in such form
that it cannot be shown to the Italian
minister for foreign affairs,
EXTRADITION TREATY TO
INCLUDE BRIBERY CASE
United States Seek to lMake Agreement
With France by Which Rogues May
Be Dragged Back to Justice.
Paris, Oct. 26,-Carrying out Instruc
tions recently received from Washington,
Ambassador Porter has begun negotiations
for an additional clause in the extradition
treaty between the United States and
France to cover bribery. The formalities
will take some weeks, but the informal
conference indicates the willingness of
the French officials to make the desired
extension.
It is doubtful, however, whether they
will be willing to make the clause retro
active so as to include bribery committed
before the clause goes into effect. The
ambassador is seeking to expedite the nego
tiations, and the French authorities are
manifesting a desire to fully meet the
wishes of the United States.

murrers this morning in criminal cases.
The first was that of Attorney Newton on
behalf of Harry Cortland, charged with
forgery.
A demurrer was also entered to the

Attorney Thresher argued the demutrer
at some length, but the court overruled it.
No time was set for hearing in the
case, and it will not be heard until a jury

promise a hearing on that date.
The complaining witness in this case,
