HISTORY OF THE GRAVE ROBBERY. The Baltimore Sun of this morning says: ‘There is uo doubt that onthe morning of No- vember i1, W. M. Jensen. a professional resur- Tectionist, who, with his famiitars, several years supplied the medical cole this city with subjects, carried to the Ma university school of mesic res and Lombard streets, ral human bodies in @ vehicle, (said to be five In number), and that among tlem were the bodies of Mrs. Carter and Miss Jane Smith. There ts yet no proof as to who Were the assistanis of the atthe cemet done as to oflicials, when discovered. A small hole was dug over the head of each corpse, and when the cofiin was reached it was broken in with aspade. A rope was put around the neck of the occupant and the body was hastily drawn out. it is stated by the workmen a‘ the cemetery that the operation did not probably excged 20 minutes in each case. A quantity of dirt near the graves Hot used in filling thei up enabled the roobers to give everything an unsusplclous appearance again. It is also thought that one of those par- Uuctpaitng in the outfage came to the graves early in the morning, about daylight, to pick up any splinters of the coffin or artlcles of aress that might be scattered around, and to fix up the graves With a finishing touch. As related heretofore, however, the scapular, the finding of which om the ground excited suspicioa, caused the graves to be opened, and told the story of the desecration, that ‘small article having doubtiess been overlooked. Oa the werning of November 1i, when the — students repaired to the dissecting- m, the presence of the remains of a youag and evidentiy well-bred momar es one of the high tables which stand under the skylight in 4 row the entire length of the ‘one hall excited much attention, comment and speculation. It Was the unanimous opinion that the body was ot the product of the esPotter's field” or ere Place whence medical colleges are supposed generally, to he tee their ge of “subjects” for dissection. S recognized at once by all as avin ee come, ‘apparently from the sanctity of some private burial ground. ih Spite of the fact that the body was then perfectly nude and shorn of its hair, there Was a refinement and character in the re- mains that caused the most obtuse among the students to appreciate the fact that. they were hot those of a common subject.’ The delicacy and fine formation of the hands were commented upop, and the face and form alike praised, It was noted that there were freckles upen the fair face of the subject, and so marked Were they that nuuibers of the students said they alone marred Its beauty, while others ap- plied the term of “treckled face.” The interest in the remains, which were those of Miss Smith, was so decided, ana the impression that they came from some private graveyard so strong that the students of the college talked With their friends outside about the case, and speculated as to which one of the cemeteries tue body may have come from. Probably the most decided point in the tdentiitcation of the re- mains was the fact that the statements of tae students agreed with those of Mrs. Joiner, the aunt of Miss Smith, and others, in thelr do- scription of the mark3 and freckies on Miss ‘Smuih’s face. Wililam Warren 1s said to have prepared ee body, as he has ustialiy done, for the dissecting tabie, and it is a question as to What Decame of the suit of hair and grave clothes. The gereral impression is that Stney were eons "3 EXPLOITS IN WASHTXGTON. ne gin also Says:—“That colleges do not generally depend on the product of cities in which ee are situated for matertal for the dissecting room, is well known. Jensen, it is alleged, ‘has been engaged in shipping bodies for dissecting purposes East, West and South, Last winter, when bodies were sald to be un- usually scarce, he is reported as having shipped 25 barrels, each containing a doubled up body, from Washington to the College of Phys siclang and Surgeons in this city. For these he was paid a large sum, and, taking this as a sample shipment, he must have found the business re- munerattve, particularly as he was at very littie expense save the digging of them up. These bodies are said to have been shipped here by rail. From Baltimore he 3 reported a3 having sWept around a radius of forty miles or more and to have secured a large number of bodies. At one time he fs said to have brought down in & Woon from Ellicott City seven bodies.” Leber eh Market, Metail Prices, T8.—Beet,sirioin,15alsi layaise; Pork, 1aiae.} Bacon Hains, sugar cured, tage Siioulders. sa9¢.: Breasts, toate Lard, salve.

MEeTING OF CiTy Cow OWNERS,—A number of cow owners 'n the city, many of them engaged io selling mixx, held a meeting last evening to consider the recent action of the ees au- thorities in enforcing the law Inst the keep- ieg of cow stables or yards in close proxtinit to owellings. They met at St. Josepd’s Hall, cor- ner of 5th and H streets, there being about 50 present. Mr. Bernheart urged the importance of uniting and some money to engage lawyers fo aj r for them and test the legality of the law. Mr. John Shea was called to the chair, and briefly thanked the meeting for the honor conferred, and explained that the law being enforced was an old corporation oral nance which certain dealers seek to have e: forced against those who own cows. John Car- nell was electedjsecretary, and P. Conners treas- urer. After a conversation on the subject it was determined to collect money to engage a jawyer and have a test case made, and $25 was collected. Messrs. Colbert, Conner and Stein- hagle were appointed a comraittee to solicit further subscriptions. Mr. Connell suggested that there was no use fighting the law, and ‘hat the best conrse to pursue would be to ask an extension of time, so that they would not be pur to the inconvenience of removing sheds, ¢., Inthe dead of winter when there was no nuisance. The courts could not repeal the act, and all that tuey (une cow owners) could do was as he suggested. Several followed Mr. Connell, claiming that the law suou\d be first tested, and. his suggestion was not concurred in. THE FUNERAL of the venerable James Cie- phane, father of Messrs. Lewis and James O. Clephane, who for over sixty yoars has been a respected cit of Wi Ashington, took place to- y at 1 o'clock from the residence of Mr. Lewis Clephane, corner of 13th and K streets north- west.
