Close of a famous Harder Trial Can(oral Stag Coach Held Up and Bobbed and OaauBtta Suicide The Wrecked 1 aYeejsdttal of Bmm Cswghlhs. Chicago special: Daniel Cough lin is a fre man. For the first time since the morning of May 20, 1889. when he was stripped of his detective s star and placed under arrest by order of Mayor Cregier, he enjoys the precious boon of personal liberty. Once convicted of murder and conspiracy and consigned by the verdict of the jury to the penitentiary for the term of his natural life; granted a new trial by the Supreme Court as the result of rrors in the previous proceedings; brought back from Jotiet after three years of incarceration, 'a jury of his peers Friday afternoon declared, as the outcome of a second trial that has occupied four months and four days, that he had neither part nor parcel in the assassination of Dr. Patrick Henry Cronin. And with this verdict the curtain is rum? down, so far as the courts of Cook County are concerned, upon one of the most celebrated crimes in the history of the Republic This was Coughlin a second trirl on the charge of participation in the murder of Dr. P. H. Cronin. The chief evidence against the ex-detective was the admitted fact that he hired the white horse and buggy in which the doctor was supposed to nave been driven to the Carlson cottage. Coughlin did not take the stand in his own defense in either trial, but his counsel while admitting the hiring, claimed that the ng had been procured for a friend of Coughlin 'a from Hancock, Mich., who was in the city on a visit, Coughlin and Cronin were members of the same camp of the Clah-na-Gael; it was charged that the ex-detective had frequently hinted that the doctor would meet with a traitor's death. The first trial commenced August 28, 1889, and ended December 10 of the same year. Coughlin, PatrickJO'Sullivan, and Martin Burke were convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment, John P. Kunze to three years, while John F. Beggs was acquitted. Kunze waa granted a new trial and the indictment was subsequently quashed. OtSullivan and Burke died in the penitentiary, and Beggs died of consumption contracted in jail. On January 19 the Supreme Court reversed the conviction and sent the case back for a new trial and on the following day Coughlin was brought back from Joliet. The second and last trial commenced November 4. After a rf had been impanelled and sworn irregnlaritiee reflecting on some of the members were discovered and December 4 the jury was sworn in a second time. The evidence submitted at the second trial was regarded by lawyers as oeing much stronger than that presented to the jnry which sent Coughlin to the penitentiary. Doable Tragedy. A double tragedy was revealed at Logans port, Ind., recently. The body of Philip Petrie was found on the Wabash Railroad near the city with the head missing. Petrie had committed suicide. The Coroner went to the Petrie home to summon Mrs. Petrie to testify at the inquest. The house seemed to be deserted and an entrance was farced as soon as the indications would justify. The dead body of Mrs. Petrie was found on the bed in a decomposed state. She had evidently been dead several days. On the bed was a note In -shich Petrie said his wife had been unfaithful and he had determined to put an end to their misery. , After tailing his wife Petrie -went to the railroad and committed suicide. Mage Coach Beat 17a.

The WtllsFargo agent states that none of their treasure was in the box. At Logansport, Ind., Alphonse Brooks was discovered trying to effect an entrance into William Kreider & Son's grocery.

While Hills and Factories Resume. R. ft Dun A Co. 'a Weekly Review of Trade says: With no more definite information than a week ago regard la it the outcome of finan cial or revenue disputes, perhaps more people have come to the tellef that the end will answer their wishes.

The doctors and attendants at the detention hospital deny the charges made by the committee and say that the Investigation was partial and unfair. They say. In proof of this assertion, that neither Dr. MeGratb, the head of tbe hospital in 1803, nor the other physician connect ed with It was allowed to testify.

Mr. Stewart, of Nevada, opposed this disposition of the bill, nd asked that It be allowed to lie nn tbo table subject to being called op at any time. This was finally rrdereo. Mr. Stowart at tbe same time offered a free sliver amendment to tho bilL The only other event of Interest was the offertog by Mr. Morgan, of Alabama, of a resolution looking to the appointment of a tariff commission, which he offered as sn amendment to tbe tariff bilL A number of bills of minor Importance wore passed. 1 he feature of the pension debate in tbe House Tuesday was tbe speech of General Dantol K Pickles, of New York. Mr. Mililken (Bop., Maine) made a brief Bpeech in favor of liberality in pensions, and was followed by Mr. Orosvonor (Rep, Ohio). Tho charge that thero was wholesale fraud In the pension rolls General Orosvonor stamped as falso and malicious. Mr. Coombs (Dem.,N. Y.) decried the constant attempts to make political capital out of the pension business, and tho unjust charges of hostility to the system upon the Southern Representatives, Tbo Eouthero members, bo said, had quietly acquiesced In tbe demands for pensions. They did not even reply to tho taunts of the other side. Mr. Blair (Eep.. N. H.) said that the cry that tho cry that tho pension roll was a roll of dishonor, tain tod with fraud, bad long been heasd In the land. As far back as 1881, in order to get at the fraudulent pensions, the ontiro roll was published. It was examined In very community, and as far as he know not ono single, solitary case of fraud was developed. Mr. Mahon (Rep, Pa.) concluded the dobate for tbe day. At tho end of his remarks tbo committee rose. Mr. Dockery presented a bill from the Joint committee on expenditures In the department to Improve the methods of auditing accounts in tho Treasury Department, and then at 5:40 o'clock the House adjourned The Senate confirmed a number of postmasters. The pension appropriation bill, carrying $150,000,000, was passed Wednesday afternoon without division. Throughout the debate there had been no criticism of tbe amount carried by the bilL All tho amendments to the bill save one, that of Mr. Plckler to mako the reports of the oxamlulng surgeons open to the inspection of the applicant or his attorneys, were defeated They all fell under points of order that thoy were not germane. The oue which attracted most attention was that of Mr. Etiloo. to repeal a portion of tho provision Included In the act of last December to prevent tbe suspension Of any ppnslon except on thirty days notice; klso to permit the suspension in case of pUln prima facie evidence that the pensioner had procured his pension bv forgery, porjury or other palpable fraud. This amendment was offered at the suggestion cf Commissioner Locbren himself, who undor tbo opinion of the Attorney General declared thnt If tho act of last December stood over 1 500. 000 would have to be paid out to suspended pensioners who wore proved beyond all question not to be loneer entitled to the pensions they had been drawing. Mr. Outhwalte. the Chalr11, an, of tho committee of tho whole, however, ruled tho nmondment out on Mr. Martin's point of order that it was not germane. The Senate struggled all day with the seigniorage coinage bill, and considerable progress wr.s made. It will soon he out of tho way. On motion of Mr. Gibton tho Souato passed tho House bill appropriating S43.000 for the rescue of tho armament and wreck of the United States steamer Kearsarge. Warm, Indeed.
