J., Junj 29.—A horrible discovery was made in a notorii Dus aiva, at No 47 Ryle avenue at abcut 9 o'clock. Foui women and two men were found lying deac about the room. Their appearance was sick ening. They had died of asphyxiation. TV ret of the women were stretched out at ful length on the floor and were hall naked. The eldest, who was about 40 years old, was lying in a pool of blood, which came oozing from an ugly wound on the head and sat urated her naked breast. Her face was horribly swollen and the right eye was almost torn from the socket Minnesota's Terrible Triple Chicago, Juno 29.—An afternoon paper ■ays the grand jury has dropped all other phases of the Cronin murder conspiracy, except that in which Alexander Sullivan appeared as the central figure and the moving spirit. Testimony so weighty that it must almost positively result in his indictment hai been submitted to the grand jury, showing that Alexander Sullivan had several times attempted to show Dr. Cronin to be a Brit ish spy, not only to members of the Clanna-Qael, but to the world. Shortly after Dr. Cronin's disappearance—some of the evidence before the grand jury goes to prove—Alexander Sullivan told a~friepd of his that Dr. Cronin was suspected by leading Irish Nationiats of being a spy of the same stripe aa Le Caron, and that they daily looked for hii appearance on the witness stand in The Times-Parnell case. Sullivan did not make this statement on hearsay or on suspicion, but as a fact, and in proof of it he showed the man a telegram from an English member of parliament, with an intimation that it was Henry Labouchere, which was sent to Patrick Egan, in Sullivan's care. The telegram, Bullivan's story went on, was in a cipher to which he did not possess the key, so he was forced to forward it in the same form in which he received it. Patrick Egan being away from here at that tfme, Sullivan sent the cipher telegram tc Thomas Brennan, Egan's confidential friend at Omaha, for transmission to Egan. Ht alto sent a telegram to Brennan asking foi information as to the meaning of the tele gram. In reply he received, so he said, a telegram from Brennan. This telegram he "l-y'vl'1 to the man who testified before the grand jury. It read: "Message is: 'Another witness expected to follow Le Caron for The Times. I think this must be your doctor. Watch steamers about May 12, as I think he will probably sail then. (Signed) B.'" The suspicious part of this proceeding was that a close search of the files of the different telegraph companies fail to reveal that Sullivan ever received any Buch cipher cablegram. Visitation.

Frederick Douglass is perhaps the best known negro in the United States. He was born a slave in Maryland in 1817, and whet 21 years cf age fled to the north. He soon became known as a fluent public speaker on anti-slavery topics and lectured through th« New England states, attracting large audiences. He also lectured on slavery it Great Britain.

An observation train of thirty-four cars, carrying about 8,000 pernonB, followed the crews, while the new railroad brMge, Dead hill and all other desirable points along the course were packed with people. Bunting of every description was profusely displayed, and throughout the race the demonstrations by the friends of the two crews was noisy and exciting to a high degree. The race was originally set for 11 a. m., but on account of very rough water at that hair it was postponed until evening. The Yale crew were the first to show up, coming down the river at 6:25, and getting into their boat at 6:50.

Harvard stiH held her lead for about ISO yards, then Yale Ijegan to gain at every stroke, and at the quarter-mile post they were on even terms. Yale then took a lead of about ten feet. Both crews were in excellent form, and for the next ■quarter of a mile neither could gain an inch. Just at the half-mile flag Harvard worked her shell up on even terras with her opponent, and the Aug pole was passed in 2:28, with the boats bow and bow, Yale pulling 30 and Harvard 32 strokes per minute. Just after passing the half mile flag Harvard took a lead of about ten feet. This lead Harvard •held but a few seconds, the Yales spurting and running their stroke up to 33. ■ Tho Word "Go" Given.

He declared that two men came to the cottage and threatened him with death if he should identify Martin Burke, now under arrest at Winnipeg. If this prove true it shows that not only are there agents at work here in Burke'i behalf, but also that there is some one in the city who has reason to fear the result of Burke's identification.

Yale then gained a lead of a quarter of a length, passing the mile flag iu 4:47, with Harvard two seconds behind, pulling a 31 stroka This spurt, by which Yale took the lead at the mile, settled the race, as Yale gradually increased her lead, being a length ahead at the mile and a half flag. Yale passed this point in 7:15, pulling 32, and Harvard in 7:19, pulling 80 strokes. Yale then ■dropped her stroke to 30, while Harvard increased hers to 82. The effects of the hard race for the one and a half miles was plainly visible in the Harvard boat. Finlay (No. 5) and Tilton (No. 6) were losiug form, and Finlay was slow in getting his oar cut of the water after each stroke. Yale, howover, was pulling in perfect form, every man in the boat sliding as one man and lifting their oars in perfect time. At two miles Yale showed a boat's length of cliar water, and the race was finished so far as Harvard's chances were concerned. At that point (two miles) Yale was pulling 88, and Harvard 82. After passing the two mile flag Nos. 5 and 7 in the Harvard boat splashed badly and their body movement was bad. Yale's long, sweeping stroke sent her further and further ahead and at the two and a half mile flag they had a lead of folly four lengths. From the two and a half mile flag to the three and a half mile flag the positions remained the eame, both crews pulling 32 strokes a minute. IN THE GRAVE.

At three miles and threequarters Yale struck smooth water, close under the bank, and two more lengths were quickly added to her lead. Harvard made a final effort to lessen the distance between the boata, but to no purpose, as Yale crossed the line on easy winner by six lengths. Yale Increases Her a ead.

In view of Mr. Pamelas recommendation of postponement, however, the oommittee reluctantly expresses acceptance of his advice and approves of awaiting his acquiescence before holding the convention. The report continues: "We think, however, that Mr. Par$ell may have been misinformed as to the general opinion of members of the league in this country, and therefore wish to emphasize our belief that a national convention should be held in Philadelphia without unnecessary delay." The report was unanimously adopted. It is hinted by leading Irishmen here that the postponement of the convention was arranged for the benefit of persons implicated in the Cronin murder. Saratoga, N.

Iu regard to the statement of the lower court that the Prospect Brewing Company, so far as it possessed any moral character did not possess a good character, Cbiof Justice i'axson pronounced this ridiculcus. In fact, the whole restrictive feature of the Brooks law is done away with, and the boasted excellence of the High License system in Philadelphia and Pittsburg is turned into a gigantic larce Commenting upon the ruling Judge James Gay Gordon, of the Philadelphia License Oourt says: "The decision tears out the vitals of the beneficial results in the restriction of the liquor traffic effected by the enforcement ot the Brooks High License law."

We have certainly tbken a step, a very long step backward, and the friends of temperance reform have now the distressing fact to recognize that in this Commonwealth beer and spirits in quantities of a quart may be sold anywhere and everywhere and in such manner as is governed alone by the cupidity and recklessness of the "By the way, what a different result the vote on Prohibition might have disclosed had this decision been announced before the opening of the polls " Liquor rules and rum triunrphs.

Harvard lost because her men were not so well taught aa the Yele boys, and because their stroke, even at the rate of 34, was not so effective as the Yale's at 80.
