THE GHT ON THE MYSTERY. ‘Whe Coroner Begins the Investigation of the Rahway Murder, ‘The inquest into the Rahway murder was begun yesterday. The first witness was Alfred Worth, Who discovered the body at 6:30, on the morninz of March 26. He said be lived two blocks from ‘the scene of the murder, and that after finding the girl and calling to her several times, he turned Dack, met his brother Irving, and together they approached the giri and found ner dead with her throat cut. They then notified their brothers, ‘Frank and Thomas, and shortly afterward the four men gave the alarm tothe police. The im- Portant feature of Worth’s testimony was the statement that when he first came up tothe scene he plainly saw footprints in the mud like those of aman and woman. As the mud was frozen hard the prints must have been made the night before, ‘Lhe ground not beginning to soften until after 11 fight wagon, or buggy. on the sidewalk” portion of it Wagon, oF ont mn of the road close besife the bods. jamin Metz- gar testitied to flading the knife with which it 1s thought the murder was done. Its blade and handie and the about the ‘spot where it lay were smeared with bright blood. John A. Dunham testified that he repaired the fence which was close to the spot where tne head ‘of the murdered girl lay. He st work at 4 o'clock, four or five hours before pposed time of the inurder. He did not see anything unusual. Saw no strangers, and believed Une Wagon tracks about the scene "were those made by bis own Wagon, Which be used the day previous to the discovery. He was sure he made some footprints about the scene, and thinks he saw his own there ‘when he viewed the body on the ground the next day, Dut was certain there were other plain foot- Prints besides his and bis assistant’s, Dr. Victor Mraviag, of Elizabeth, who assisted at the autopsy, said the body was that of a female, five feet two inches in height, perhaps 25 years old, with light brown hair and blue eyes. “The au- Lopsy showed that the girl had come to her death Dy a stab or cut that commenced at the right side of the throat, cutting the windpipe clear through in two places, severing the Jugular vein and caus- ing a fatal hemorrhage. Beside this there were numerous cuts and bruises about the face, bruises ‘on the arm and two cuts on the inner Surface of the left hand. The examination proved that the girl had not been criminally assaulted, and that she had never been a mother. ‘There were two marks on her body that might help to dentity her —one being the round white scar two inches in di- ameter just below the right knee, the otner being a roundish scar on the left side of the neck about jan inch and a half behind and about an inch be- Jow the left angle of the lower jaw. ‘There were no other marks on the body. A WITNESS WHO CAUBED 4 SMALL SENSATION. ‘W. E. Rubeck, an employe at Bloodgvod’s mills, wascalled. Mr. Rubeck surprised everybody by ‘stating that he came upon the body about quarter past six on the morning of March 16, before the ‘Worth Bros., and was frightened at the sight_and ran away. ‘His impression was that the girl was either murdered or drunk. He turned up Jefferson avenue, and, meeting Mr. Keefe, told him of the Mr. Keefe then rose to say that Rubeck had told him something about the girl’s hat being in the gutter, and Rubeck contradicted him. Kubeck lives about elght minutes’ walk froui the murder scene. He went tobedon the night of the murder about nine o'clock. His wife Was absent, and ne did not know what time she A FAMOUS RAILROAD MAN DEAD. Alexander Mitchell, President of the Great St, Paul System, Passes Away. Alexander Mitchell, president of the Chicago, ‘Milwaukee and St, Paul Ratiroad Co., died in New York yesterday afternoon at the Hoffman House, of pneumonia. Mr. Mitchell was born in Scotland In 1817 and came to America when a youth. He went to Milwaukee shortly thereafter and became engaged in the insurance business. In 1851 he became identified with railroad affairs in Wis- consin. At that time there were only two or three little “jerk-water” lines in the State. These lines were consolidated and proved the nucleus of what is now the Chicago, Milwaukee and st, Paul Railway, controlling over 5,000 miles of line, said wo be the longest continuous system in the world owned by one corporation. Mr. Mitchell has been president of this system since May 5, 1863. In 1870 Mr. Mitchell was elected ‘a member of Congress as a democrat, and remained four years at Washington, where he displayed the same energy and ability as had characterized his busi- ness operations. In 1879 he was tendered the democratic nomination for I igo! but declined, and in 1882 he declined a place on the Tariff Com- mission of that year. Mr. Mitchell was not only the richest man in Milwaukee, but the wealthiest in the Northwest. Ills fortune 1s, variously esti. mated all the way from $30,000,000 to $50,000,000. ‘Mr. Mitchell’s death has‘ led to the knowledge that he had about completed arrangements to re- Ure permanently ‘from business by July 1, trans- ferriag the responsibility of bis lense banking business to his son, John L. Mitchell; his brother- in-law, John Johaston, and David son, and [atm down from the presidency of we St. Paul road. This corporation, when he first assumed direction, owned less than two hundred miles of road, and tts rails now branch out an aggregate of five thousand miles. It has been rumored that ‘the general Offices of the road would be removed to Cliicago upon Mr. Mitchell’s demise. The char- ter of the company, however, stipulates their loc: ton in Wisconsin, and the president must also be co of ee Itis ae iepeeen Ce son, of Milwaukee, or rmOUr, o1 Chicago, both of whom are heavily interested in ‘St. Paul, will succeed Mr. Mitchell. shrwarinnter Lecco Insanity in His Family. WHAT A FRIEND SAYS OF PAWSON WARD'S ATTEMPT 70 KILL BIS WIPE. The Rev. Prof. Riley, of the Nashotah (Wis.) Protestant Episcopal College, has been taking @ great interest in the case of the Rev. Chas. W. Ward, of Englewood, N.J. Speaking of it and him he said: “I used to be very well acquainted with Mr. Ward. I assisted in preparing him for the church. ‘This was at Newburg, N.Y., where I was in charge ofa parish. There isa very singular coincidence im connection with that. When Charley first came to me his mother said: iow, Mr. Riley, don’t you try to prevent Charley getting married. I know him thoroughly, and know he ought to marry; besides, I want a daughter and a home.’ Charley did marry, not once, but many tmes. ‘This Is his fourth wife. But Mrs. Ward never had the home she desired.

Tate at Middiebrough, County York, England, in 1876, Afver living with, him about two years she applied for a divorce. On May 5, 1879, an order was entered in the court ‘which stated that the marriage would be dissolved unless sufficient cause was shown within six months why the decree should pot be made abso- Jute. The defendant, shortly after instituting the proceedings for a decree and before the final order was entered, came to this country. in Kingston, N. Y., she became acquainted with ‘Wm. H. Stewart, to whom she was married on July 2, 1879. She lived with Stewart two years, ‘when, having received information from her Eng lish attorney that the final order of divorce there was not entered until January 27, 1880, she legal and said she would perier that the marriage ‘woul e ceremony be again performed.

A FLAN TO BRING THE PEOPLE INTO ONE BIG CO-OPER- ATIVE CONCERN. ‘The New York Siar says: The Marquis de Mores has for the past two months tried to float a co- Operative meat scheme, by which ke proposed to take into business with him all the fainilies in New York, Brooklyn, Jersey City, Hoboken, and elsewhere, at the nominal cost of ten doliars a share of stock. ‘This would give a working capital Of $10,000,000. Oniy a small portion of the $10,- 000,000 Was forthcoming, and tor this reason he abandoned the undertaking and has returned the subscribers tneir money. It 1s understood, how- ever, that the marquis is about to undertake @ new’ scheme in connection with the principle of co-operation, based upon the Rochdale system, which has béen successfully operated in the town of Rochdale, county of Lancashire, England. A reporter for the Siar called upon Mr. Samuel Grimshaw, who is under contract with the mar- quis, and Was informed by him that just at pres. ent the marquis had not hts plans matured sufi- ciently to make them public. He believed, how- ever, that the Rochdale plan was under considera- tion in connection with the civil-service store sys- vem of England, both of which had met with un- Dounded success in that country. In London many of the nobility hold stock in’ these stores, and make their purchases there. ‘The marquis 1s bound, come what may, to be the pioneer in a great scheme of co-operation in the East, and while he has already backed up his belief by a great expenditure of money he means to carry some plan into successful opera- tion at any cost. He believes that the people here have as keen an appreciation of their in- terests as their Engilsh cousins and that either the Rochdale or the civil-service store system can be successfully carried out. The marquis began business in this city last July and since that tine has opened several large stores and done a lance and, it is believed, a paying business. He carried on a large business at St. Paul and Chicago, but metwith bitter opposition on the part of Armour & Co., Nelson Morris and other western dressed meat kings. The marquisis the head of nine different companies and president of the National Con- summers’ Company of America, which has for {ts object the handling of every article of food at a a saving of the profit of the middle man to the consumer. ——_+e-__ ‘The Maine Conflict of Authority. COMMISSIONER MILLER DENIES THE AUTHORITY OF STATE COURTS. In the contest between the State and Federal courts at Augusta, Me., Collector John B. Redman Was called to the witness stand in the superior court yesterday forenoon. He produced a telegram containing instructions from Commissioner Miller, | in which he was authorized to deny the authority of the court to compel the production of the records or a copy of them, und also to instruct Collector Murphy to that effect. He asserted that the time required for attendance upon the State court would greatly interfere with the business of his department. Mr. Murphy was called, but Tefused to give téstimony as to the records, of that he had recetved the payment of tax or delivered thestamp. District Attorney Bird. who appeared as counsel for Messrs. Redinan and Murphy, argued ‘that the business of the revenue department would be greatly injured, and the time of the ofticiais occupied, if they were obliged to testily in the State courts relative to special taxes.
