THOMAS LILLY WAS POISONED
The Evidence Before the Coroner'-. Jury
in the Lilly Carr Shows Poisoning. No
Verdict To-day.
The ctironer's jury in the Lilly case re
convened for another hearing at 2 o'clock
to-day. After hearing the evidence of the
below,
the
two w itnesses mentioned
tlie unanimous opinion of
jury was that the meat was not the
cause of the death of Lilly, tint that
arsenical poison placed there by some one
witli criminal intent whs tlie real cause.
A. Richardson, a practical butcher, was
called. He swore that he hart been in
tlie butchering business all his life and
had cured dried beef and sold tons of it.
The green spot found in meat was
caused by the curing elements not going
entirely through it. He had eaten pounds
of meat looking that way and had never
found oi Ijeard of any bad effects. He had
been selling Armour's beef for 12 years,
and in Dial time, had sold tons of it. Had
seen low of it with green in it and the
only reason it was there was because as
before stated it bad not lieen perfectly
cured. He had never received a single
com plaint because of the meat.
Dr. H. C. Snitcher was next sworn.
Tlie doctor testified to his being sum
moned to the family on tlie night of the
poisoning and finding that tlie family
were suffering from some poison in the
stomach causing internal burning. Nearly
all of them were in a collapsed condition.
Lilly was almost moribund. He came to
the conclusion at once that arsenic hud
been administered. His attention was
called to bringing the patients back to life.
The doctor did not believe that the
meat caused the poisoning, and it was his
positive opinion that it would have been
an impossibility to use enough poisoning
mutters in one-fourth of a pound of meat
to cause the death df one jx-rson and
almost the death of two others.
In his opinion tlie poison was
placed on tho-meal between tlie times it
was purchased at Toppin's store, and when
tie- men ate it. He was certain that it
was arsenic from the symptoms of the
disease. In strychnine poison spasms
always attend, while arsenic, as in this
case, vomiting and intense burning are
the signs.
The testimony of Dr. Snitcher prevented
tlie jbry from rendering a verdict and an
adjournment was taken until Friday
morning next at 0 o'clock.

lying at the wharves of the Harlan and

noon yesterday, and tlie dock trial of the
machinery suspended. The firemen were
in «ueh an exhausted and bewildered eon

work properly, and had allowed tlie wa

The h-ngth of the watches of the

additional men taken on. but although

condition that they were. The tempera

the fire room at last reached over 200 de

It is said that the man that drew the
fires was so exhausted that lie had
to be lifted from the tire room
with a bioek and fall. During the morn
ing Thomas Baily, one of the colored fire
men. came on deck in a state of collapse
and bewilderment, and was taken with a
congestive chill. Dr. Blocksom was sent
for and under his treatment the man ral

Tlie Harlan & Hollingsworth Company

GENERAL POLITICAL NEWS.
Rev, .1. W. Scott, father-in law of Gen
eral Harrison, who was stopping at Wer
nersviile, Berks county. Pa., for several
months, left yesterday for Indianapolis.
Mr. Scott is in his 140th year, and says he
traveled through this vicinity seventy
three years ago on horseback, en route
for Philadelphia. He was accompanied
to Wernersville by his daughter, Air. E.
S. Lord, and his granddaughter. Mrs. J.
F. Parker.
Congressman Darlington of West Ches
ter. Pa., has informed a number of his
friends that lie has the promise of Con
gressman McKinley of Ohio, that that
gentleman will be his guest some time
during October, and will make a speech or
two in behalf of the Republican national
ticket in Chester county. Congressman
McKinley is a warm friend of ex-Congress
nmn Everhart, and should he come every
effort to make him have a good time will
be resorted to.
The conversions of prominent men from

comes out flat footed for Cleveland. He
believes in gradual tariff reduction, with
ultimate free trade. Mr. Olyphant, on
the other hand, is a strong protectionist,
and voted for Cleveland the first time

a delight fill day will be spent by those
who went. Fifty tickets had been dis
tributed by the ladies who visited
among the poor of the city to members
of families where they bad visited and
that number of persons were expected,
but for some reason the full number
failed to put in theirappearnnee. Fifteen
of the tickets hud been distributed to
persons beyond Eleventh street bridge and
none of these fisik the trouble to come,
although they had been fold when and
where to meet. This deprived others of
going.
The boys sat on the stops and whistled
while waiting for the coach, and the girls
stood about the doorway. The tired
looking and delicate women waited in the
office. About !• o'clock a large four horse
coach from Dorman's livery stable drove
up and the parly stepped in. One small
boy climbed up on the top with the driver,
who gathered up the reins, snapped his
whip and drove away into the country.
A wagon ( went ahead loaded with
milk, ice cream, buns, crackers,
apples mid other refreshment«. The
buns, ten dozen of them, were donated
by l>. II. Jones; the milk by William It
Sellers. The ice cream was purchased
with the money aubscrilied for the pur
Pose The other eatables were donated
by different persons Interested in the
work. The party were accompanied by
Mrs. C. Newhold Trump, Mrs. Joseph M.
Mather. Mrs. Samuel N. Trump, Mrs.
Francis Kasly and John Massey, the
superintendent of the Associated Chari
ties. The party will return late this
afternoon.
The
'XIH'Uses of this excursion was
The average expense ou this and
and tlie previous excursion to Binning
ham Park was 110 cents. Therefore a con
tribution of fffi cents will send some poor
child or sickly woman into the country
for a day. There are to be two more
exclusions given, one for colored persons.
The owners of the Juniata have offerts!
their boat to carry an excursion to Penns
grove, but none has been arranged as yet.
Doubtless an excursion to Augustine Pier
would lie productive of much good mid
beneficial effects.
