CHARLES A. MUELLER,
Melancholy Death. A Young Man
Is Poisoned hy the Criminal
Carelessness or a Druggist.
A Bad case of fatal poisoning from
the, negligent handling of medicine 1
came under the observation of the
coroner j-aslcrday. 31 r. James A.
Kcnncrly, i young gentleman of
about twenty-eight yearn, is tho de- j
ceasod. Only a few davs ago ho was I liven
following his profession a a member
of tho engineer corps of the Iron
Mountain railroad, and employed in
the construction of the Arkansas
branch of that line at Poplar I'luil",
Butler county, Mo. On the evening
of tho 2S(h iust. JUr. Kcnncrly felt a
little indisposed, and reslovedto take
some fluid extract oflmchu, which he
had found hcnclicial in his disease,
which was gravel. He went with a
friend to the drug .store of G. T. llart
Iet, at Poplar lilulf, and asked for the
extract. Tho young man at the
counter offered him a large bottle,'
which ho declined taking. Jlo pur-'
chased a small bottle, containing a
dark fluid, labelled with the iiamo of
the apothecary and the directions.
On returning to his boarding house
lie took one tea-spoonful of the liquid,
and had supper. He was soon seized
with a sensation ol' dizziness, a sting
ing about tho throat, and a general
numbness over his body. He grad-'
ally growworc, and his associates
became alarmed. A plrysimn was'
sent for, but without being able to
render any aid. It was the opinion I
of tho medical attendant that Jlr.j,
Kcnncrly, had been poisoned, and he
frequently expressed that view. In
two hours from the timo that the im-j
fortunate gentleman had taken tho
fluid poison ho was a corpse. His
remains wcro conveyed from Poplar
Bluff lo this city, and yesterday Cor
onor Dudley investigated tho subject
in his usual searching manner, at an
inquest at tho office of Mr. Lynch,
undertaker, on Olive street. The
verdict of tho jury was that tho de
ceased came to his death from tho
oitccisoi anover-uose oi meuicino; j$Kr. 8. Every person who shall I UOASTKK
