OVER SMART CORRESPONDENTS.

Their Stories Regarding the Cronin Murder Were Pure Fabrications. Niagara Falls, N. ¥., July 19.—Careful investigation shows beyond any doubt that the stories concerning the letters recently picked up here and at Stamford, Ont., endeavoring to create a mystery in connection with the body found in the whirlpool rapids and to associate it with the Cronin murder in Chicago, were pure inventions of special correspondents. The story of the attempt to steal the body of an unknown man buried at Welland. Ont., was also absolutely false, as no such attempt ever occurred.
