"ear GreencastN-, Indiana. CINCINNATI, Feb. 7.—Tliemystery sur­

rounding the finding of the- body of a y» mg woman, evidently murdered, and with, the head cut off, near Fort Thomas, Ky., a few miles from this city, last Saturday, has been solved and her murderers have been arrested. One is held as principal of the diabolical crime, another as his accomplice and a third on suspicion of having guilty knowledge of its commission.

The main suspect is Scott Jaclcson, a student in dental surgery from Greencastle, Ind. his supposed accomplice is William Wood of Greencastle, Ind., a friend of his, who was arrested at South Bend, Ind., and the third is Alonzo Walling, another dental student •who has been rooming with Jackson.

The young woman whose headless trunk lies in a Newport undertaking establishment has been identified as Pearl Bryan, tlie daughter of a stockraiser and dairyman at Greencastle, Ind. Up to Wednesday, when they were thrilled with horror by the awful intelligence of how their daughter met death. Mr. and Mrs. Bryan believed her to be in this city, in the full enjoyment of health, spending a pleasant visit with friends.

Detectives were sent to Greencastle to obtain what information they could liable to lead to the identity of the murdered girl. The only and main clew they had was tlie stamp of Louis & Hays, the shoe dealers, in the shoes worn by the murdered girl. They took all of the apparel worn by tlie girl, even including the small articles of underwear, with them i'or identification.

Their success was beyond their most sanguine expectations. They not only succeeded in having all of the clothes identified beyond doubt by the mother of the murdered girl and others, but by gome shrewd work, in an incredibly short space of time, learned everything about her antecedents that could possibly be discovered who would be interested in her removal.

Tlie detectives learned that Scott Jackson is said to have betrayed the girl last September, while he was in tlie .office of Dentist Gillespi at Greencastle. He came to Cincinnati early in October and is said to have written letters to William Wood, a relation of the girl, Celling of arrangements he had' made to have a criminal operation performed on iher in this city, and it is presumed that she came here for that purpose. Jackson, Wood and Miss Bryan moved in the birs'^society in Greencastle.

The only thing remaining after this was to follow the movements of the. parties under suspicion, locate them and •cause their arrest. Tlie good work of jfche detectives and Sheriff Plummer in accomplishing this purpose resulted in a speedy apprehension of all three parties.

Jackson was first arrested in this city and put through the usual course of questioning. He acknowledged that he knew the girl and had called on her at *her home in Greencastle, but denied •having seen her in tiiis city.

Alonzo Walling, Jackson's roommate, -was then arrested and after being questioned made a confession. Walling •gain, that on Jan. 2!) Pearl Bryan came -Dver from Greencastle. She was taken to the Indiana House and registered, being assigned to Room 4. Jacksonand '.•'"Walling met that day at Fourth and fta-ce streets and they discussed the advisability of performing an operation t»n the girl. Wood was said to have jbeen the cause of the girl being in a delicate condition. They discussed the jnattor of an abortion 011 several occasions, but failed to arrive at a decision.

On Friday night, so Walling conJesse 1, Jackson went out and did not Tel nr until midnight. On Saturday WaiLng called Jackson's attention to itlie reports of the murder, and asked liim: "What does this mean Jackson hesitated, stammered, and then replied 111 a rather shaking voice: "Oh, they -can't find her head, so there is no means ipf identification." When the matter of •the shoes was mentioned to Jackson, he IBaid: "D—n those slices. They may cause trouble."

On Monday and Tuesday, when matters .tt the Greencastle end of the mystery became dimmer, Jackson appeared to be more quiet, and said: "They're getting off the track all right."

Wednesday, when there was renewed interest in the Greencastle story, Jackson :•:•.'. •••!.'(.} at the clotm. ai:d the shoes, suid narked that the officers wen getting close to home in their discoveries EUid that lb ey (tiie clothes and shoes) tireie leading to the identification of the woman. .ls.oin when confronted with this jk -evidence of Iris guilt made a partial con-

Session, but tried to throw the crime ",jflnto Walling. Jackson sail that, he 1knew about the girl coming to tlie city S^pnthe 29th. He knew Walling had ?, iueen her, and that he (Walling) was to *-®erform a criminal operation. Ho 'y'icnew Walling had met her, that the gtbortion had been performed. He ^-jcharged that Walling committed the srime under which she died.

Jackson made his confession by small .Installments. He is still obstinate, and .--jooade the statements because he saw the douds of evidence gathering around

Jrim. Not a word of the details of the crime has he yet spoken. While he adjnits that the girl was murdered, he fnaintains that a third person committed the crime.

Walling then prepared a statement in which he said that Scott Jackson had told him about his trouble with Pearl Bryan, and in which he said William Wood was also interested. Jackson jpever referred to anything except the proposed abortion until Pearl Bryan game to this city Jan. 29. Then he talked1 about the serious condition, and ^consulted with druggists and fellow stuabout the best drugs with which jfrilrill Jackson got drunk a night or

two after Pearl came here," and told his roommate that he proposed to get away with her. He had several plans which he outlined. One was to take her to a room and kill her with drugs and leave her as if she had suicided. Another plan was to kill her with the drug, cut up the body and drop it in vaults, unless he got a good opportunity to cremate it at the furnace in the dental college. His third plan was with acids, which Walling explained at length.

Walling denied that he was with Jackson and Pearl Bryan in the cab last Friday night before the murder was committed. A colored porter and a barkeeper who saw tlie hack drive away from their saloon testified that Walling got in the hack with them. Walling insisted that the last time he saw Pearl Bryan was last Wednesday night, but that he did see Jackson on Thursday and Friday nights and that Jackson went to their room and put on part of Walling's clothes in order to throw suspicion and blame from himself on to his roommate.

In Jackson's statement he accounted for the blood on his clothes by saying that Walling had gone to their room and put on his clothes before going out to commit the murder.

Walling says that Jackson told him on Thursday night he intended to drive over to Fort Thomas with the girl and get rid of her and that he did so on Friday night.

During the time that Walling made his confession, Scott Jackson was present and heard it all and denied everything as his roommate proceeded with the story. They called each other liars and were with difficulty prevented from I creating disturbance. Meantime a large crowd surrounded the place and both the men expressed their apprehension for their safety. They are not anxious to be taken to Newport, Ky., for trial, but as soon as the preliminary examination is cleared up requisition papers will be issued and the prisoners will be turned over to Sheriff Plummer of Newport, Ky., just opposite this city. The feeling, however, is as strong on this side of tlie river as it is on the

Kentucky side against the men who are believed to be guilty of the most brutal murder that- has ever been committed in this locality. I Jackson's valise was found in a saloon just opposite the city hall. It was lior-

1

ribly besmeared with dried blood. Kugel. the saloonkeeper, said that Jaekson left it there Friday night. I The search for the head of tlie murdered woman still goes on, but it is believed that .Jackson and Walling are the onh ones who know where it could be found, and some are of the opinion that

Jackson is the only one who could solve this part of tlie mystery. William Wood was brought here last night from South Bend, Ind. Wood is not yet of age, bright looking, with florid face cleanly shaved, light hair and finely dressed. His conversation showed him to be more advanced in the ways of the world than usual at the age of 21. He was accompanied by his father, Rev. D. M. Wood, presiding elder of the Methodist church in the district where he resides at Greencastle, Ind. Rev. A. A. Gee, pastor of the Methodist church at South Bend, Ind. A. N. Grant, attorney of Indianapolis, who is the counsel qf Wood, and A. R. Colburn, a lumber merchant of Michigan City, who came to go on the bond of young Wood. Although a warrant had been issued charging Wood with aiding and abetting an abortion, yet he was held on suspicion without bond.

Wood was examined at length. The prisoner said this was the first time he ever visited Cincinnati and insisted that he had never been here to confer with Ja'-kson, Walling or anyone else. He said he had never been outside of Indiana except for one trip to Chicago. He was questioned very closely about the letters from him that had beta) captured with the affects of Scott Jackson in the latter's room. Those letters are very obscene and refer specifically to the proposed abortion on Pearl Bryan. Wood said he was a distant relative of tlie girl and was doing everything in his power to help hide her condition and get her out of trouble. In these letters Wood referred to matters which the oilieers considered as implicating him in the tragedy, but he denied all knowledge of anything that was ever proposed except the abortion. In these letters Scott Jackson told Wood that Walling, his roommate, had a friend who was an expert chemist and who would take charge of the operation. It turns out that Jackson was referring too himself, so Wood and Walling claim, as the expert chemist as well as tlie surgeon.

There is no doubt that Jackson was the principal, and that William Wood, arrested at South Bend, Ind., is deeply implicated. Abundant letters from Wood to Jackson bear one this part of Jackson's confession. Nearly all of Wood's letters are about girls, and some of them are grossly indecent.

Coroner Tingley of Newport thinks that the girl undoubtedly died while under the influence of an amesthetic while they were preparing to perform an operation upon her, but jjhat no operation had been performed. The other three physicians who made the examination of the body all agree with the coroner that no criminal operation had been performed.

Mnrderer Surrenders.

FIGHT IN A SALOON.

Three Men Killed "and Five Others Seriously Wounded.

A RACE WAR WAS THE CAUSE.

The Saloonkeeper Was a Slav, While Most

of His Customers Were Hungarians and

Poles More Trouble Looked For as tlie

Friends of tlie HI ordered Men Threaten

Vengeance—Other State News. WHITING, Ind., Feb. 7.—In a saloon

fight which occurred here yesterday afternoon, three men were killed and five others seriously wounded.

The dead are: John Mokin, shot through the head. Stephen Mulcha, shot in right temple. Emory Szanjo, shot through the breast.

The seriously wounded are: Jacob Gladstone, cigar manufacturer, Chicago, shot in breast.

John Thomas, foreman for Standard Oil company, shot in right side will die.

Peter Nagz, seriously injured about head and shoulders. Garbor Fleevord, head badly cut by falling glass will recover.

Leo Morgan thai, cigar dealer, wounded in left breast.

A traveling man in the saloon at the time had a narrow escape, a bullet going through his coat.

Opinions differ as to the cause of the fatal fight. One man says it was a race war, the saloonkeeper being a Slav, while most of his customers are Hungarians and Poles.

The people of the town are much excited over the shooting and more trouble is looked for, as it is rumored that an uprising of the murdered men's friends may occur at any moment.

Four men are under arrest as participants in tlie shooting. The officers who made the arrests had a, hard time to get their men, as the murderers had barricaded themselves in the saloon. As the men would not surrender, the officers broke down the door and with much difficulty secured them.

Tlie Outlook For Fruit.

Jkffeitsonvillk, Ind., Feb. 7.—Tho Hon. H. O. Poiudexter, who is one of the largest fruit growers in tho state, reports that the fruit prospects so far are very good. Tho danger resulting from late freezes have to lie considered, but Mr. Poiudexter is authority for the statement that fruit is seldom ruined by freeezing after January in fact, but once in 25 years has this occurred. There has been no fruit in this county for four vears.

Dropped Into the lliver.

FOWTJEK, Ind., Feb. 7.—Horace Kendall, living west of this city, boarded a Monon freight train at Rensselaer to go to Surrey, a small station a few miles north. The train made no stop until it reached the water tank at the Kankakee river, five miles beyond his destination. As soon as the train stopped Kendall, in attempting to alight, stepped off into the river, 40 feet below, and sustained injuries which will likely prove fatal.

A Panic at a Funeral.

FORT WAYNK, Ind., Feb. 7.—At the funeral of Peter Rosselot, who was killed on the electric tower, i0 mourners crowded into the front room of his residence. Tlie floor gave way and sank four inches. Women were stricken and screamed, but men who knew there was no cellar below tho floor quieted the frightened women and prevented an accident. Tho casket was tilted slightly, but was caught by the pallbearers.

Sickness ill Kipley County. GTCEENSHITRCI, Ind., Feb. 7.—An epidemic of diphtheria and scarlet fever is reported from Kipley county. It is said that grip is also prominently prevalent. One undertaker at Osgood had seven funerals in one day this week, and 1G funeral in one week.

A landmark Kcuioved,

CAMBRIDGE CITY, Ind., Feb. 7.—The old wooden bridge over White river, near this place, has at last been torn away, a modern iron structure taking its place. The bridge was a relic of pioneer days, and it served as a landmark. SECRETARY SMITH'S FIRM STAND.

He Advocates Foreclosure of Government Mortgages on Pacific Railroad Lands. WASHINGTON, Feb. 7.—Secretary Hoke

Smith, in a conference with the house Pacific railroad committee, advocated foreclosure of the government mortgage on the Pacific railroads and a re-sale of the roads. He declared that there would be no difficulty in doing this without government ownership of the roads, to which he was opposed absolutely.

He recommended that congress pass an act forfeiting the lands granted the two companies, with an exemption in favor of Dona fide purchasers from the railroads. If congress did not legislate he would revoke his suspension orders and patent the lands to the-roads.

COLD STORAGE FOOD.

'A MAMMOTH INDUSTRY CONCERNING I WHICH LITTLE IS KNOWN. I

More Than a Score of Great Wtyehouses In New York For Preserving Meats and Fruit—Stored In Frigerific Atmosphere I For More Than a Year.

[Special Correspondence.]

NEW YORK, Jan. 27.—When you order roast chicken or turkey or delicious suckjing pig in hotels or restaurant, you doubt[less smack your lips with anticipation of 'tho feast and consider yourself a very great connoisseur of good living. I wonder would you enjoy your banquet quite so much and would you reckon yourself so much of a bon vivant if you should examine the subject of cold storago thoroughly.

If, as you put that dainty, crisp morsel of golden browned young pig in your mouth, some one were to tell you that it

COLD STORAGE MACHINE.

had been hanging for over a year in a cold jstorago warehouse, do you think you could iswallow it, or if tho tender breast of that spring chicken should prove to ho from a fowl killed in the spring of 1895 do you imagine it would seem quite so much of a delicacy? You cannot tell these days I what you aro eating unless you belong to that fortunate class of beings who can run out in their back yards, kill and dross their own swine, beef or fowls and cook them in their own kitchens.

The business of cold storage is a vast and important feature, of metropolitan icommoreial life. New York boasts two 'dozen great cold storago warehouses, 'wherein shippers and dealers, wholesale :and retail, store the quantities of beef, igamo, poultry, eggs, vegetables and fruits which regale, solace and sustain the metropolitan stomach. There is, by the way, Inotliing too good for that same stomach. Tho markets of the west and south send their choicest products to New York, the I city of well fed men and women.

Many of tho cold storage warehouses still cling to tho use of ice, natural or artificial, as tho caso may he, and of salt for freezing purposes. Others liavo adopted |tho newer method of using salt brine and ammonia. Tho ammonia cools the brine, and tho cold air is pumped by an engine into the various rooms of the big warehouses. In one large warehouse, down jnear the ferries and quays, there aro 25 jmiles of pipe running from the pump into all quarters of the great building. This warehouse, which is typical, is live stories in height and has a capacity of 75 carloads of freight.

On ono the coldest days of tho recent, jcold snap, when the thermometer regis-! 'tered only 15 degrees above zero, the writer, believing in the eternal fitness of tilings, visited a cold storage warehouse. While at first glance this might appear foolhardy, let me say that it is much more prudent I to visit such it place o.: a bitterly cold day than to go in the heat of summer, when 'the sudden change of temperature might! produce fatal results. As a matter of fact, it was actually warmer in many of the warehouse chambers than outside. Tho average temperature of the rooms devoted I jto the storago of meals, game and poultry 'is from 12 to 1(5 degrees above zero, while that in tho rooms set apart for fruits and 'vegetables ranges from 33 to 84 degrees 'above.

Some idea of tho immense stores deposlited in* these warehouses may bo gained jfrom the statement that in one room the 'Writer saw 1,000 barrels of apples and was told that there wero altogether in tho warehouse 10,000 barrels of Bartlott pears, Ono room was piled to the top with sadIdles of venison, there being 1,500 in tho collection. In anothor room wero 3,000 jchickens waiting tho resurrection day. jBut tho most fascinating and appalling of all tho sights shown tho writer was a row of beautifully dressed baby pigs, stored before the holidays of 1805 and to bo kept Juntil the holidays of 18l)(i. There is ono humble individual in New York who Avon't eat sucking pig next December.

The rates for cold storage are one-third cent per pound per month. Cheap enough in sounds, but when a dealer consign.! thousands of pounds of stulT" to the care of .the warehouse, it may readily be seen what a hill he will have in a few months. Cold i-iorago is only for six days on oysters and vegetables. The cold storago companies do not examine goods on receipt, so that, not. being able to certify to their ^condition, t'tey are not responsible for any jdamago to erishablo goods. Condition |and quality I Ming thus unknown, all goods 'are stored at the risk of owners The dealer, on consigning his stuff to tho warcjhouso, receives a receipt for so many barirols, boxes, kegs, crates, bags, baskets, ifcubs or other receptacles, or for so many fish, ribs, lambs, saddles, calves, loins or sheep, as tlie caso may be. Ho is of course [privileged to draw out any amount of this (stuff at any timo ho may wish on tho paj'jmont of its board bill.

Many cold storago warehouses do a regular banking business. lAir illustration, suppose a poultry dealer wishes to buy 10,000 fowls and has not tho. money wherewith to secure them. Ho borrows that inoney at 6 per cent interest from a cold storago warehouse, or rather the storago firm buy tl:u poultry for liim and store it in their warehouse, giving him tho privilege of tak"ig out as many as he likes from timo to timo on the payment of cash lat the rate of one-third cent per pound per Imonth plus the interest on the money advanced for the original purchase. Thus the oold storage people become, as it were, {brokers of food stuffs and make a handsome profit in this way.

The juices and steam from tho im'pris

tafe^s on all sorts of fantastic and pretty effects, so that the pipes are really quite attractive at times. Barrels of this frosty substance are daily removed. It looks exactly like ice, but when you lift pieces of it you find them as light as thistle down.

The consignors of stuff to the cold storage warehouses are, as a rule, the market dealers, who in old days lost thousands of dollars on unsalable goods. Now all they have to do is to pop left overstuff into cold storago and try it again. Meanwliilo the gormand rubs his hands over his delicacies, not knowing he is eating meats possibly a year old. "What of that?" asked one to whom tho writer was expressing her disgust. "Think of tho mastodons frozen in Siberia which tho dogs unearthed and ato! It doesn't hurt them a little bit."

Yet to some it may not be an agreeable thing to fancy you may be eating stuff which has been in cold storage ovor a year.

EDITH SESSIONS TUPPEK.

JAMAICA.

Characteristics ol" tlie People—Its Exports and Imports. fSpecial Correspondence.

KINGSTON, Jamaica, Jan. 20.—The tourist upon arriving at Kingston does not form a very favorable impression of Jamaica. There is no disputing tho fact that the city has been in a very poor condition for years. The sewers are above ground and in tho center or at tho sido of the streets. Tho sidewalks aro miserable, to say the least, and it is far preferable to walk in the middle of tho streets, jump the sowers and dodge the cabmen, who have no regard for pedestrians, than to keep on tho uneven sidewalks. This, however, will be remedied to a certain extent, as the city fathers have had the fact pounded into them that tho city is in a most wretched condition, a disgrace to tho island. An underground sewerage system is now being put in. They have an excellent water system, and evory house owner is compelled to placo tho water in each house for the tenants, and no restrictions arc placed unon the amount, of water to ho used. This has greatly added to the healthfulness of tho city. Gas and electric lights are also in use.

The longer one romains in Kingst on tho less favorable impression he has of the island. Tho city is overcrowded with a poor, ignorant class, and it is a wonder how they manage to exist. Upon tlie arrival of a steamer tho wharfs are crowded with the natives, poorly clad, and one is besieged on every side, and all he can hear is "guv me a thrupence, sah," or you aro asked to buy fruit or cigars. To one who has visited tho tropics far the first time it is an interesting sight. Slow women than men are employed in coaling steamers, carrying large baskets of coal on their head much easier than we could carry id with our hands. Their habits and mode of living are somewhat similar to tie negroes' in our southern states. The merest excuse of a hut. is sufficient for them to live in, and their daily food consists of salt meat, corn bread, green bananas and yams. It is next, to impossible to get them to move quickly unless thero is a reward in sight. In many respects they aro like children. They must, first bo taught and aro willing to please so long as you do not try to force them. The majority will not work on Saturday or Sunday, and no matter bow important tho work may be they prefer to lose their day's wages in order to bo out on tho street and go to the market. They are happy and contented if thoy have but one meal a day, and don't seem to mind it very much if thoy miss that, and never bother themselves about the morrow. If the.y wero an industrious class, it would not be necessary to import from the Unit ed States about $200,000 worth of corn an-

Tho total imports for tin) lisoal yoar ending March, 1894, woro $1,852,545, moro than one-half tho total imports from ail other countries combined.
