Local business men are indulging In considerable speculation as to what the object of the Pennsylvania railroad Is In buying up all the available ground along Its right of way, east of the river. Various purposes the company is alleged to have in view has been advanced. It is stated that the company will probably uso the property it already has secured, the site of the defunct City Mill Works and the Hawkins property, for years used as show

Gunness farm. His friends have not heard from him since. Puzzling Evidence, Much unexplainable evidence, which has hitherto been suppressed has been made public. It is contained in the report of Dr; J. L. Gray, who performed the autopsy on the body which the authorities have steadfastly claimed is that of Mrs. Gunness. Dr. Gray in his report tells of three rings which were found on the corpse and also re-

grounds, as sites for factories, space to veals the fact that the right hand,

increase the yard facilities and for the erection of an additional repair shop. The territory through which the railroad operates in this city east, of the river, is congested on each side of the right of way with factory buildings. It is stated that the company realizes that. If in the future it Intends to materially increase its locai freight business more factories must

hitherto declared missing, is still in existence. The ring's, which might be expected to reveal the identity of the wearer, only add to the mystery of the case. Two of them contain inscriptions, one being "P. S. to J. S.. August 22,-94." and the other "P. G. to J. S.. 3-5-93." Officials are Puzzled. Mrs. Gunness's husband was Peter Gunness. but the identity of "J. S."

disprove the dirk theory, although the condition of the cadavers precludes definite information on this point. The knives and scissors are thought to have been used in dismembering the bodies. Kach corpse was mutilated in practically the same manner, the bodies of the latest victims showing particularly expert anatomical work. An interesting sidelight on the character of Mrs. Gunness has bevn furnished by Mrs. C. O. Lapham. of Laporte. who for six years was a neighbor of the woman. Mrs. Lapham .'ays that on the only occasion on which she called on her neighbor, her hostess sat near an ooo window. Exposed Knife Belt. A strong breeze through this opening blew aside the folds of a loose house dress which Mrs. Gunness was wearing and revealed about her body a wide be!t containing pouches of various sizes and sheaths, which seemed to have been constructed for knives. As a sequel to this experience. Mrs. Lapham's daughter is said to have related an experience at the house when she had accepted nn invitation to supper there. Miss Lapham said that she engaged the Gunness children in conversation regarding their home, but that in the midst of their talk Mrs. Gunness admonished the children, and that they thereupon became "strangely silent and disquieted." This took place some two weeks before Jennie Olsen disappeared, the latter having been more or less of an intimate friend of Miss Lapham.

Richmond is one of the most important transfer points on the. southwest system of the Pennsylvania and this city's importance as a railroad center will steadily grow. The company realizes, it is pointed out, that within a few years the present local yard facilities will be entirely too inadequate, so with customary foresight, the compais now engaged In the work of buying up all available territory fronting its right of way. For a transfer point as important as Richmond is, with four divisions, including the G. R. fc I., entering here, the local shop facilities are far from being up to standard. It is pointed out that Hichmond should have as good repair shops as those at Logans-

have been the owner of the rings, but the size of the circles, taken in connection with the date and the fact that she was born in 1S79. precluded this as a definite conclusion. Dr. Gray made his disclosures in the official report, which he handed to Coroner Mack this morning, and refused to discuss the matter later. The report says: "With the body, hut disconnected, was an adult right arm, with burned and shrunken fingers contracted on the palm. Clutched in the hand was a

piece of burned cloth (Exhibit No. 11. A band ring, with small diamond set, found on second finger of right hand (Exhibit N'o. 2). An adult hand and about one-third of the forearm of the left, side were with the body. On the third finger were found a gold ring

with a small diamond set with engraving 'P. S. to J. S., August 22-94,' ajtd a gold hand ring, engraved on the inside 'P. G. to J. S., 3-5-95' (Exhibits Nos. 3 and 4.) Dr. Gray also describes at length the remnants of clothing and night robes found with the four bodies. One of the night robes was that of an adult, the length of the inside seam of the

sleeve being 17 inches. The gown wasJ

trimmed with lace, and ribbon, and its total length, acocrding to the remnants at hand, was 52 inches. Remnants of a child's night dress and several undergarments wore also found. Impossible to Tell. Dr. Gray's report was concluded as follows: "From the examination of this adult female it is impossible to determine the exact cause of death." Accompanying the findings of Dr. Gray was a report by Dr. J. H. W. Meyer on the body of the male infant found in the ruined house. It describes the condition of the corpse as already revealed, the finding being that the

cause of death could not be determin

ed. The "raining" operations which have been promised by Sheriff Smutzer for several days have been started

in earnest in the ruins of the Gunness

home. Louis Schultze, who was employed by the sheriff to sluice the ashes in the cellar, completed his apparatus and began the tests to determine whether or not his arrangements were of the character demanded by the

work at hand. Early in the mining operations Schultze caught the shimmer of gold. The article found resembled a charred tooth containing gold filling. It was turned over to Dr. I. T. Norton, a Laport e dent'st, but, to the disappointment of the authorities, it. proved to be a piece of a gold picture frame. Ultimate success In the mining is doubted by some, as it is believed the gold in the teeth must have been fused. Additional evidence regarding the methods by which the persons whose corpses were found on the Gunness farm met death has been unearthed. Two dozen pairs of scissors, bent and curved in the fashion of surgical instruments, were found in the ashes in the cellar, and. in addition, three

knives, two of sergical character and another an unmistakable dirk, were picked up. Dirk the Chief Weapon. In the absence of evidence to the contrary, it is believed that the dirk may have been the chief weapon employed in the series of murders, which have brought notoriety to the farm. An expert hand easily could have slipped the snake-like weapon between

GIrardln's Satisfaction mn4 a Winning Choice of Waapona. M. de Gh-ardin, the father of the statesman and author, Emli de Girardin, on one occasion entered a plaea where several men were firltijr, at a target. A gentleman praeiit, whom M. de Girardln did not know, nit the bullseye at every shot. Severn! byFtanders expressed themselves in very great admiration of the gentleman's precision. "Yes," said De Girardin, "h hfts remarkably well, but it's quite a different thing to hit a man in a duel from hitting a piece of pasteboard." The marksman overheard the remark and was offended. "I think you are mistaken, sir," he said to De Girardin. "I assure you that If I had you before me I Bhouldn't miss you." "You can haye me when you like,'' said De Girardin. "Let it be immediately, then," paid the other. An attempt was made to patch the matter up, but neither man would agree to an amicable settlement. The seconds were chosen, and the men

went to a locality favorable for the

duel. It was decided that they should

fire separately, and It was left to a de

cision by lot which fired first. The lot fell to the mysterious marksman. He fired at M. de Girardin and missed him. De Girardin stood still, making no sign as If to fire at his antagonist. "Come, why don't you sho .tV asked his seconds. "Why should I shoot?" asked De Girardin. "There is no reason why I should kill this gentleman. I maintained that even a crack shot could easily miss his man at twenty-five paces. This gentleman maintained the contrary. He must now be convinced that he is wrong. I owe him no ill will for having discovered that" A better method of meeting a dueling challenge was no doubt one which was employed on a certain occasion by a French statesman against M. Victor Noir, an illiterate bully of the press in the time of the second empire. The statesman received from Noir, for no real reason whatever, a challenge to fight a duel. Noir was a densely Ignorant man. and nearly every word in the challenge was misspelt. The statesman responded with the following letter: Dear PIr Tou have called m out with

out any Rood reason. I have therefore the choice of weapons. I rhnns" the spelling book, and you are a dead man. The duel was never fought London Tit-Bits.

It Has the Poorest and Happiest People In the World. It is estimated that a quarter of a million people in Naples live from hand to ruouth. and there are hundreds of children who subsist out of the garbage boxes and who sleep In churches and on doorsteps. The taxes in Italy to provide warships and to keep the nation on a war footing with the other powers are really stupendous. There is a tax on everything, says the Delineator grain in the field, fruit on the vine, old bottles Fuel and foodstuffs ore very dear.

Only lalor is cheap. For the very pour meat is a luxury unheard of. nnd even macaroni is too dear to be Indulged in often. There are any number of perambulating street kitchens, where vn rious kinds of soup, cakes and fruits ar sold la portions costing 1 cent. And yet these people sem very happy. Rands of musicians are always play ing in the streets; the guitar and the mandolin are to be heard every whereon the boats, in the hotels, and the stranger, is lulled to slepp by a soft serenade under his balcony. The story teller thrives in Naples, as there are so many idlers there. He collects a little crowd around him and proceeds In the most dramatic way. gesticulating wildly and working his face inta be most excruciating expressions, to relate stories of adventure or other events, much to the edification of his hearers, who to show their appreciation are often letrayed into giving a sou which might have been better spent for bread or polenta.

The Twilight Of Life. The tnnscles of the stomach in eld age are not as strone or active as in yotith and in consequence old people are very subject to constipation and indisestion. Many seldom have a bowel movement without artincial aid. Many, also, havo unpleasant eructations of gas from tne stomach after eating.

The fact that there was no mark of penetrating wound on Andrew Helgelein's body is a possible refutation of this theory. But it is pointed out that Helgelein, according to the findings of Dr. J. II. W. Meyer, as made public, succumbed only after a fierce struggle in which he tore a handful of hair from the person of his murderer. Chloroform or some other deadening drug is thought to have been used to subdue the death struggle of the South Dakota farmer, after which some deadly poison was used to encompass his death. In all the other bodies found on the term tfetr l no negative evidence to
