Obituary.

Mr. Poors, whose decease is announced in another column, came to Roseneath over. forty years ago, and erected the mills now! owned by his -son-in-law, Mr. Dugald Mauna; and for many years carried on the’ milling business with satisfactory success. His wife and family, consisting of seven sons and tive daughters, mourn the loss of an affectionate husband and kind father, and his hospitality will iong be remembered by his friends and neighbors. In former years, when the country was thinly settled, many persons had to travel long distances to the grist mill, and in many cases a whole day was passed in the journey going and returning. In such cases Mr. Pvole waa invariably a kind host to those frequenting his mill; and many a poor man returned from the mill blessing the kind heart of the miller at Poole’s, who, in many respects, was a true descendant of the ‘**Miller o’ the Dee.” On Thursday, the 13th inst., his remains were conveyed to the cemetery at Georgetown, by one of the largest funeral processions seen in King’s County for years. To his sorrowing family we extend the condolense of Tus Ex- AMINER.

The Rifle. FURTHER PARTICULARS OF THE INTER-PRO- VINCIAL MATCH —THE SCORES.

As already intimated in Taz EXAMINER the fourth inter-provincial rifle match was held at Drury Range, St. John, on Thurs- day, and resulted in the Nova Scotia team coming off victorious. The three previous competitions tuook place at Moncton, Charlottetown and Halifax respect- ively, the winners being in, 1886, New Brunswick, with 701 points ; in 1887, Nova Scotia, with 654 points, and in 1888 New Brunswick, with 661 points. The weather throughout the day was very unfavorable for good shooting. The match was shet at 200, 500 and 600 yards ; the position at the first range kneeling and at the others prone. Two sighting shots were allowed each marksman at the several ranges. At the 200 yards range the New Brunswick men were considerably left, the other teams making 230 points each, while the New Brunswickers secured only 223. The Nova Scotia men got in their work at the 509 yards range, rolling up 235 points. The New Brunswick men managed to de-

feat the Islanders, making 206 to 203 by |

the latter. When the riflemen retired to the last range Nova Scotia had a great lead, being 465. The Islanders were 435, or four points more than the New Brunswick team. It was generaily conceded that the Nova Scotians wou!d win, and so they did. At the 600 yards range they increased their lead still more, making 193 to 164 by New Brunswick and 155 by P. E. Is- land.

| ADDITIONAL NEWS FROM JOHNSTOWN, salt

JoHNsTOWN, Pa., June 13.—The genera] opinion among well posted people here is that the loss of life is between 3,000 and 4,000. It was generaily given out that

{Johnstown and boroughs adjoining had a

population of 35,000, but conservative people put the population at between 25,- 000 and 28,000. Keports are conflicting, putting the number of bodies recovered anywhere from 1100 to 1800. There is no telling how many bodies are recovered.

‘To-day is the second day since the flood that no rain bas fallen. Onder the influence

of the sun the sandy soil is rapidly drying and things in general are brightening wonderfully. A number of stores have started up again and large quantities of the flooded?goods sold chiefly as relics.

ANOTHER ACCOUNT.

The total number of bodies recovered to- day is 19, making a grand total of 1,999. The mass at the stcne bridge was fired this afternoon and is burning furiously. With it disappears ali hope of recovering the bodies certainly there entombed.

WasuineTon, D. C., June 13.—A young man entered a Washington hat store the other day, and asked to have a mourning band put around his hat. In reply to a question as to the nearness of the relatives for whom he mourned, he drew from "is pocket a photograph of a group of 14 young ladies and gentiemen, of which he was a member, and said: *‘ lam the only one left of our merry little club; all the others were at Johnstown.”,

The Cronin Murder.

WOODRUFF'S STATEMENT — HOW SULLIVAN TOOK HIS ARREST — TEE VERDICT A SUR- PRISE.

On the closing day of the recent enquiry in Chicago, Chief of Police Hubbard gave the jury the only authentic statement,the prisoner Woodruff has yet made, This is the Chief’s story: ‘* Woodruff said that on the day bef... the murdertwo men came to him at Dean’s barn and paid him $25 to have a wagon ready at 9 o'clock that night. According to the *:reement he had the wagon ready at 11 30 or 12 o'clock. The two men rapped on the door of the barn, and he let them in, They were King and Fairburn. He hitched the horse, and the three drove to the Carlson cottage. Wood- ruff described the cottage exactly. When the three got Jwithin 100 feet of, the house the two men ordered Woodruff to stop. He did so, and the two men went up to the house. They entered, and in about five minutes came out. They carried a trunk, and it seemed very heavy. Another man followed. They beckoned to Woodruff,and he drove up in front of the house. They put the trunk in the wagon. * Who was the third man?’ Lasked. ‘P. O'Sullivan,’ said Woodruff. ‘I know it was P. O’Suilivan, because some remark was dropped by the other two men that led me _ to believe that it was O'Sullivan. I don’t know what the remark was.” ‘What did you do then?” lasked. * The two men got into the wagon with me, and we drove south, on Ashland Avenue, to Fullerton Avenue. We turned east on Fullerton Avenue, and went to ! Lincoln Park. We drove into the park ;and stopped in a clump of bushes. The jen took the trunk out of the wagon and |set iton the grass. They then considered | whether they would throw it into the lake. They decided not to, and ordered me into {the wagon. I then drove north and away jout to Lake View on Evanson Avenue. | We met an officer and he scared us. We | went fur.her than we expected. When we | had gone a couple of miles King and Fai:- | burn got out and took the trunk out. They opened the catch basin at the corner of the street and attempted to force the trunk in. It wouldn't go in, and they broke the trunk ‘open, took the body out and dropped it into {the basin. They then put the trunk back and we drove south about 500 yards. King and Fairburn got out and threw the trunk into the bushes, at the side of the road, From there we drove back to the city. King and Fairburn left me at Lincoln Park and I drove back to the barn.”

Fifteen minutes after the verdict was rendered, Alexander Sullivan was a prison- ‘er. He was sleepieg soundly when the of- ficers called. It took three vigorous raps on the door to waken him. Then he leap- ed out of bed in a flowing nightshirt, and opened the door. ‘* What do’ you want, sir ?”’ exclaimed Sullivan. The mittimus was opened and handed to the Irish leader, He hewmed sarcastically, and then said, ‘** ll be ready in moment.” The prisoner manifested no surprise. He was not ner- vous, and seemed to enjoy the situation much more keenly than the big officer who towered above him. It took Mr. Sullivan less than five minutes to dress. Then he bade his clerk good bye and followed the three officers into the carriage. It was but a short drive to the jail, The vehicle rolled along Dearborn avenue at a goud speed and at eleven o’clock the prisoner passed into Jailer Foltz’s office. He was registered, weighed and searched. Then he was let into cell 25, in Murderer’s row, where he quickly undressed himself and {jay down for the night. He refused to be interview- ed. During all the ordeal Mr. Sullivan never flinched. His face: was intensely pale, but he maintained his composure ad- mirably. During the ride from his house to ihe jail he said nothing to the*oflicers.

The verdict of the jury was a great sur- prise to the thousands of persons who had sat up all night to hear it read. Most people expected that the names of at least 15 suspects would be mentioned, while others had made out a list of at least 21 prisoners. The ‘‘and others” clause in the verdict, however, is supposed to cover Senior Guardian Beggs and the rest of the Clan-na-Gael who weré so active in their hostility to Dr. Cronin.

After Lord Dufferin had been presented with the freedom of the city of London a few days ago, the Lord Mayor gave a grand ban- quetin his honor at the Mansion house. Amongst his guests were the High Com- missioner for Canada. In the course of his reply to a toast to his health Lord Dufferin made the following graceful reference to bis sojourn in this country: ‘‘During the period of my tenure of office in Canada—a country I shall never ceuse to regard with gratitude and affection—the affairs of the Dominion were conducted, as you are aware, through the in- strumentality of responsible Ministers; and if my administration was successful it is due to the patriotiem, the wisdom and the states- inansbip of those eminent men—one of whem, Sir Charles Tupper, lam happy to see is here to night—(cheers)—to whom the Parlia- meat of Cadada has confided the interests of the country.” Later on the toast to the **House of Parliament” was proposed by Sir Charles Tupper, whoze treatment on public occasions of this sort warrants the beliet that Canadian importance is readily recogniz d in Eng'and in the person of its official r epi esen- tative.
