A General Rush for the Possession of the Dead Man's Property. ance on the Stage of the Lady to las Whom He Was Engaged. ’ case of Undertaker Elton; charged by ae Mann with disorderly conduct, came up before Justice Wallace yesterday morn- an chief witness for the prosecution was the Coroner himself, who testified that Elton jad been ‘notified that an inquest would be hed upon the body of Walter Meyer, and that there should be no funeral until it was over. Elton had also been notified that, if any money Was found on the body, it was to petumed over to the Coroner, who would arrange for the funeral. Elton had refused to turn over the body when a second demand esmade for it, and he then had the under- taker arrested for disorderly conduct. . Tndertaker Adams testified that he had at {he Coroner’s request made a demand upon flton for Meyer’s body. No violence was jn the removal of the remains, Mr. Elton said that he had a permit from the Health Department for Meyer’s burial. Ge considered that, under the circumstances, he had not transcended his authority in .the peates JUSTICE WALLACE . considered that Elton’s action in the prem- ises at least tended to a breach of the peace. He hed certainly misconceived his rights, He accordingly fined Elton $15. . The undertaker took an appeal. TRE INQUEST. Coroner Mann yesterday concluded at the Amory the inquest upon the remains of Walter Meyer, and, after hearing a number of witnesses, the jury returned a verdict of death from congestion of the brain and ty- phoid pneumonia. Noone was found cen- surable for the manner in which be was neglected while ill, ‘and noone blamed for his death. Mrs. Flood refused to give up the money and other prop- erty of the deceased which she had in her ssession, claiming that the Public Admin- tor, Mr. Rosenthal, had advised her to retain possession at least for the present. The Coroner stated that he had no de- sire to ‘clash with the Public Ad- ministrator, although the law relative to the Coroner’s office and duties distinctl ordered that officer to take possession of all effects upon or near the dead bodies upon which-he was required to hold an inquest. He contented himself, therefore, by simply taking an inventory of the effects. in the ] ion of Mrs. Flood. But the Coroner did obtain possession of 8 gold wuieh, shirtstuds, siseve buttons, clothing and other traps belonging ie de- Taehich were at the Mercy Hospital. ‘These are valued at from $60 to $70,—a sum sufficient to pay the expenses of the post mortem and the inquest, and also to give the body 2 decent burial. The funeral, Coroner Mann states, will take place surely at 10 o'clock this moming from Undertaker Adams’ establishment. It is possible that a Jewish society may conduct it; but should they not, the body will be taken to Grace- Jand and’buried there. The impression which seems to have pre- valled that young Meyer might have consid- erable property has resulted in AN EXTRAORDINARY RUSH OF PEOPLE to secure the possession of. whatever be- Jonged to him. Monday or Tuesday ex- Mayor Milliken notified Public Adminis- Gator of Meyer’s seat, and stated that be left some property, the greater part 0 itin the possession of a lady, Mrs. Flood, at No. 958 North Clark street, though a watch: and some other valuables were at the Mercy Hospital, where the sick man had been taken. Subseqhently, the Administrator sent word to Mrs. Flood and told her not to turn over the property in her possession tb any one,— that she would be responsible in’ case 4} passed out of her hands. into those ofany unauthorized person. Next several in- dividuals came in in reference to Meyer’s case, or with claims against his estate; among them were some women. ‘There was also one Miss Tracy Garland, who claimed that she was engaged to Meyer. She lived, she said, tt No..15 North Grovestreet, Her statement was that Meyer’s father was a distiller in Brooklyn, and that Meyerhad been here about three months, There also came ina Ai J. W. Hield, a cabinetmaker at No. 415 State street, who had some claims. And then some lawyers began telephoning to find ovtabout was known about the estate. These inquiries and demands, coming from all sides, convinced the Public Administrator that it was proper to take action. Night before last Mrs. Flood called upon him, and’ said ‘that “three or four individuals had demanded the property of her, and she didn’t Know whattodo. She was’ told that she could not give if up,—that NEITHER THE CORONER NOR ANYBODY ELSE had anyclaim as far as he could see. Yester- day maming she called upon him again, and stated that the Coroner had again demanded ‘ublic Admin- the property, whereupon the istrator directed Mrs. Flood to turn over the $200 to him; and a report of the facts in the gees made yesterday by him to the Pro- rm Now, this Meyer case is not in itself one of any particular consequence. It {s more than Iikely that the young fellow has no money left, has no wealthy relatives abroad, was simply a wild boy, who, having come Ynto the possession * of $1,000 or 50, setout to have a good time with it, in- tending, Possibly, to go to work when it was allspent, But THERE HAVE BEEN A GOOD MANY CASES under other Coroners where there have been. inquests simply for the purpose of getti ion of the little money or the few val- uabies which the dead man might have. Un- inquests have been held, and the funds which were found on the deceased lave been practically divided between the Coroner ani undertaker, the undertaker’s sufficiently large to swallow up all the money, and sufliciently profitable to en- able him to fee the Coroner, or the Deputy Coroner, or the Coroner's bailiff. Now thelaw provides that, “upon the death of any person n not leay a widow or next of Kin, or creditor within this State, the Public Administrator of the County may take such ures as he inay deem proper to protect aud secure the effects of such intestate from jes or embezzlement until administration thereof is granted to the person entitled thereto,27 this case, considering the Aumerons claims which are coming in, there certainly such risk of waste as to Justify Public Administrator in taking hold. et the Coroner’s claim to take this money ti nt Ars.

It is provided that “when any nable ‘property, money’ or papers ink found upon or near the a upon which an inquest is held, the Cor- et all take charge of the same’ and de- ct the same to those entitled to its care or Pissession.” Jt can hardly be claimed that yet left at No. 258 North Clark street died Upon or near” the body of a man who in the Merey Hospital.

Jand at the house of herannt, Mrs. Foss,’ at 15 Grove street, on the North side. Here he found a tall and lithe, and, withal, strikingly handsome young lady, whose slender figure and delicately formed face were adinirably set off by the deep mourning in which she was clad out of. respect to lier dead lover. When he announced his mission and asked the young lady whether she was acquainted with the late Walter Meyer, she sighed softlyasa preliminary: to theregretful words: “Know Walter? [should think I did; I ‘was cneaged to be married to him.” The lady then went on to relate that she the gentleman in question became ac- quainted in that most romantic of ways, a chance meeting in the street, which resulted in an off-hand acquaintance, and: finally in a tender attachment, whose ending was an engagement of marriage. She did not go into particulars in regard to the smoothness or otherwise of the course of their Jove, but was firm and emphatic In the state- ment that she, and:she alone, had gained the heart of the gay young man. It was a tritie ditticult at times to get Miss Garland to talk on the subject of her rela- tions to Mr. Meyer, as her {aunt, Mrs, Foss, —a_ lady with an abnormal dread of the newspapers,—kept cautioning her_whenever she began-to be interesting. Mrs. Foss candidly enough stated that she was from the beginning opposed to the engagement, as she believed Mr. Meyer was intent upon de- ceiving her niece, though’ she acknowledged that towards the last Mr. Meyer, who scens to Nave had winning ways, convinced her of the honorable nature of his intentions. The younger lady stated that when she re- ceived the sick man’s invitation to visit him in the hospital her first impulse was to fly to is bedside and nurse him single-handed, but when the aunt suggested that it would be more proper if she accompanied her, she, of course, acceded at once. The two ladies thereupon visited the sick man, and found him: very much depressed. He informed them that he was going to die, and, though they endeavored to cheer him up, and assure him that he would recover, he insisted that he knew better, and, by way of showing his regard for Miss Garland, he took HIS GOLD WATCH AND CHAIN AND 5 “DIAMOND PIN my and gave them to her, she, however, declining to remove them just then. According to the description ziven—doubtless _exageerated —by Miss Garland, _ the care taken of oung Meyer by his attendants in the ospital was anything but what should have been accorded to a patient in his very dangerous condition. She averred ‘that the nurses. in attendance were rough to him, and: inagreat many ways bothered him, at times when absolute rest and quict were necessary for his well-being. One night, too, she said, when she had been told by the nurses that she had better take a rest, she was awakened from her sleep by a noise, and found the delirious patient standing by the side of a half-open window, She asked him what he was.doing, and he informed her that they would not let him gevout by the door, and he had determined to make an exit through the window. At another time, she said, when_it was decided to move him from. Room No.10to Room No, 19,—a dis- tance of about thirty-feet, with a stair- way included,—he- was made to walk the distance along the cold passage-floors in his bare feet,—a treatment which, she insisted, could not be beneficial toa person suffering at the time from lung-fever. Bhe also complained that, thongh he plainly enough intimated to those in charge of the hospital thatshe was his intended wife, she was treated by them with the same rudeness which was accorded to the South State street habitues who called upon him, On the subject of Mr. Meyer’s antecedents previous to his coming to Chicago, she did not have much to say. According to. her be- lief, he was anative of Brooklyn, N. Y., where his father, now deceased, kept a dis- tillery on Little street. He was, she under- stood, hic only child, and was quite well off, though she had never asked him any ques- tions as to the amount or nature of his pos- sessions, ———— A MODEL OF INTERIOR DECORATING. All lovers of the beautiful and artistic in |. interjor decorating will be interested in the work now in progress at the Sherman House. This hotel is preparing for the summer cam- paign by a thorough renovating, and the new frescoing work is unexcelled by anything in the West. Mr. H. J. Milligan, 178 Randolph street, who has charge of the decorating, has fairly surpassed himself, and the excellent taste shown in the coloring and the designs calls forth the warmest expressions of ad- miration from ail who have examined the work. The parlors snd reception-rooms offer a splendid field for the genius of the artist and. Mr. Milligan has not failed to do ful! justice to the subject. The result is simply charming, and challenges criticism. The floral and Eastlake desiens in the parlors are particularly noticeable for their elegance and graceful effect. The club-room, the. main office, and entrances, as well as the bar- Toom, are similarly beaullfied. The work is attracting an unusual amount of attention from art critics owing to the fact that the de- signs and details are entirely new, most ofthe tracings having been secured by Mr. Milligan direct from the leading Parisian artists, The decorating in every detail is a perfect success, and is creditable alike to the house, which is recognized as one of the best hotels in America, and to Mr. Milligan, whose work entitles him to rank among the leading artists in the line of interior decorating in the country. AN ELEGANT DISPLAY OF. HATS. The variety of elegant styles in hats now shown by Messrs. A. Bishop & Co., 164 State street, corner of Monrc.:, is attracting crowds of buyers. Prominent among the novelties we note the stylish P. O. W. B. hat, the cele- brated Knox silk hat, and the regular Broad- way spring style in silk hats. In addition to these, an endless variety of soft and stiff hats are shown, while in the line of, youth’s and children’s hats the_ stock is the largest and finest in thecity. Messrs. A.

It is a well-known fact that the Parisian Suit Co. are the only house in Chi- cago that make their own Costumes, and with the ex- ception of a few imported ones, which are all high cost; they sell no other kind. They do not advertise as a bargain a New York Suit made out of 14 or 15 yards of cheap, narrow Silk, for $25.00; a Suit that a lady can hardly get into, much less wear to any degree of satisfaction. A lady purchasing a Cos- tume of the Parisian Suit Co. can rest assured that she has got an exclusive style, as we never make two alike, an important consideration with most la- dies. And finally our patrons are always assured of a per- fect fit, as the basques of our Costumes are merely basted together, the button- holes unworked, until the article is sold, then it is fit- ted to the purchaser with as much care as an order Suit, and always. gives sat- isfaction, a thing impossi- ble to do with a New York Suit, as the button-holes are always worked, and seams pared down and finished. Comment is unnecessary when it is added that every house in Chicago that sells Ladies’ Suits, with the ex- ception of the Parisian Suit Co., buy them ready-made in New York City. If there is anything nec- essary to corroborate the statements that we make in this advertisement, our re- cent Opening, which was admitted by all to excel anything of the kind that was ever shown in Chicago, is sufficient.
