A Special dispatch from Atlantic City to the Philadelphia Press, dated yesterday, says: There was a sad case of drowning today to mar what otherwise would have been a most auspicious opening Sunday of the early summer season. The victim of the sea was Miss Jennie McGrogle of 10th and Dickinson streets, Philadelphia, and the manner in which she met her fate has caused Prosecutor Perry to begin an in- vestigation of the circumstances. She went into the surf this afternoon near Illinois avenue in company with Mrs. James Far- ley, wife of an Atlantic avenue merchant, Mrs. P. McKenna and Miss Clowney. They met a young man in the water, a stranger to them, who volunteered to take them out into the breakers. His offer was accepted by Miss McGrogle, and they grad- ually worked their way out into deep water. Neither knew how to swim, and it was tempting fate for them to act as they did, in the absence of the life guards. It was apparent to the other bathers in the vi- cinity that the girl was protesting against being taken out so far, and that her com- panion was pulling her with him. When in wate? which reached to theif necks a big breaker rolled over them. The girl was separated from the man, and the latter upon coming to the surface shouted for assistance. There were a number of bathers near at hand who saw the accident, and realized that the girl would drown if succor was not rendered promptly, but all seemed par- alyzed with fear. The shouts of the man, who was fast becoming exhausted, brought to the scene Robert Brady, a young bath house keeper, who was at his dinner, and, without waiting to divest himself of his clothing, he sprang into the ocean from the end of the jetty. Rescued the Man. Frank Bew also came from his father's bathing establishment with a rope to ren- der assistance. There was no trace of the girl. Brady brought the man ashore. Dur- ing the time this was occurring the girl's companions were frantic with the knowl- edge that she was drowning. The rescued man was brought ashore in an unconscious state. He was taken to a bathing estab- lishment, where restoratives were given, and he soon recovered. He made an at- tempt to leave the city, but the police stop- ped him at the railroad station and took him into custody, to await the outcome of an investigation by Prosecutor Perry, who was notified of the circumstances. The drowned girl had been visiting Mrs. Farley for three weeks, and was to return to her home this evening. It is said that her mother is critically ill, and fears are expressed that if she hears of her daugh- ter’s tragic death it will kill her. A search has been carried on all the afternoon for the body. The young man in custody keenly feels the situation he is in. When questioned he first gave the name of Charles Russel Thomas _of Cleveland, and then he turned it Into Thomas Richards and then George Crawford of Philadelphia. A Charge Preferred. A sensatton was added to the case to- night by Mrs. Farley swearing out a war- rant for the arrest of George Crawford, meaning the girl's companion, . charging him with willfully enticing the girl into dangerous water which resulted In her death. Crawford is the name he gave whea called before Recorder Gouldey tonight. No testimony was taken, and he was 1e- manded to the city jail without bail to await the results of the investigation now In progress under the direction of the cor- oner and Prosecutor Perry. He will prob- ably be given a hearing tomorrow’ on the charge. It 1s asserted by witnesses to the tragedy that it was the result of the recent build- ing of a jetty at the point where the drown- ing occurred. The presence of the jetty has caused the waves to wash a deep hole in the sand at {ts outer end, making a precipitous “‘step-off” of great depth in comparatively shallow water. A gentle- man with two children narrowly escaped drowning in the same place during the morning hour, their rescue being effected only by the extraordinary and timely cx- ertions of some bathers who were in the vicinity. eee ee Murder in Indiana.

HAS BECOME AGGRESSIVE ee Special From a Staff Correspondent. SPRINGFIELD, Ill, June 3.—There are indications today that an effort may be made by the managers of the democratic free silver convention of Wednesday next to give the meeting a wider scope than the call anticipated. There is talk of attempt- ing to pass a resolution calling for a na- tional democratic free silver “conference” to be held at St. Louis later in the sum- mer. The propesition which is being canvassed among some of the Springfield managers is to issue an invitation, under the auspices of the democratic party of Illinois, for a firancial conference of the democracy of every state in the interests of the free coinage of silver. Whtn the delegations ar- rive here Wednesday the pian will be laid lefore the leaders from different sections of the state, and if it meets their concur- rence wouid doubtless carry in the conven- tion. ‘To Indorse Altgeld. There is also taik of an effort to be made by Governor Altgeld to have the coming convention indorse his pesition in the Chi- cago strike matter by deploring the decision of the Supreme Court in the Debs case. That decision was a great disappointment to Goy. Altgeld, and was the last blow in a series of defeats in his handling of the strike. The proposition with regard to this, as now discussed, is to have the convention “view with alarm” the precedent set by the Supreme Court decision in the interference of federal courts with the rights of labor ard the aid thus given to tyrannous capital. It is said Gov. Altgeld is very anxious to have such a resolution pass, but that there is opposition to its presentation. Senator Palmer is in the city and watch- ing the progress of events with much in- terest. He thinks the convention will go far beyond the scope of its call. “I un- derstand there is likelihcod of the conven- tion instructing me to vote for free ver,” said Senator Palmer teday. “If they do I will answer them. It will t go un- roticed, you may depend vpor it Here the old general tucked up his sleeves with a very expressive gesture. No one is likely to get a fall out of him. The fact is Senator Palmer is so irritated with the non-committal course of Vice President Stevenson. Mr. William R. Morrison and other leading democrats of the state at this juncture thet he ¥s aroused to a state of continual aggressiveness in behalf of ound moncy and the administration. Fig- uratively speaking, he goes around with a “chip on his shoulder’ all the time. The publicaticn of Gow. Altgeld’s attack on the federal judiciary this morning at- tracted but little attention here. It is re- garded as merely-a political inci nt ti for the occasion. It lends cclor, however, to the report which was current before, that he will seek to have the democratic convention indorse his views and give him a vindication. Officers a» Levers. The question of federal appointments and the participation of federal office holders is figuring in the free silver movement ex- tensively. Several democratic ofticials who have been identified with the silver move- meht have shown a decided change of front recently, and are making haste to get out of the free silver com It is un- derstcod that when Senator Palmer was in Washington a few days ago he advised that all postmasterships and other ap- pointments should be held up until the ef- fects of the coming convention are made manifest. Secretary of State Hini tenant of the Altgeld demo that if prejudice is done any fe holder on account of his attiliation this mevement the silver democrats of the Senate will make common cause of the af- fair, and refuse to confirm the other man, or render it unpleasant for the admin- istration, Mr. Washington Hesing, the representa- tive of the administration at Chicago, came down this morning. “The sornd mo} people do not hope to~acccmplish much,” he sald. “The best they can expect to do will be to endeavor to tone down the reso- lutions if they get beyond the avowed ob. ject of the convention, as now seems very the Heu- told me ral office with hsen, The Proposed Conference. Later investigations this afternoon con- firms the report. current esrlier in the day, that an effort may be made to call a national democratic free silver conference. It is now se#id this convention may fix the date ond appoint delegates from Mlinois. Strenuous efforts will be made by the administration men to prevent this, as it is feared the result would be di rous to the party in other states. There is but little prospect of success, however. The Altgeld democracy is intoxicated with the result of its efforts to arouse a free silver movement in this state, and is now in a fit condition to run amuck through the na- tional democracy. It is the opinion of many here that the object of Altgeld faction now is to establish a democratic free silver party. . O. M. INDIANA FOR SILVER. A Poll of the State Would Favor the White Meiat. The political clouds that hover over Hoosierdom are heavily lined with silver, says an Indianapolis special. If an election were to be held in the state tomorrow it would unquestionably result in an over- whelming majority for the fifty-cent dollar. Political leaders are in a peck of trouble, and no man can at present safely predict the outcome. The campaign has already begun. It is to be a stubborn fight, and to a finish, in an educational field, with the odds at the start in favor of free coinage. But the friends of sound money are in good condition, and expect to reverse the odds before the first round for the nomina- tions next year Is over. There is a very large independent vote in Indiana—enough to carry the state one way or the other under ordinary conditions. 'The populist vote {s about 20,000, Should the republican platform and republican candi- dates come out squarely for sound mo: the independent yote would go that way and should the demoeratie platform and candidates stand for free silver the popu- list vote wou'd go to the democratic col- umn. The populist vote is somewhat greater than the old greenback vote, but the ma- jority of the populists represent withdraw- als from the democratic party. While it is not absolutely certain to beso in the com- ing campaign, the indications at present are that the above will be the political di- visions. WET BLANKET FOR BLAND. Democratic Central Committee Agninst a Monetary Convention The democratic state central committee, which met in St. Louis Saturday to con- sider the advisability of calling a state con- vention to take action in regard to silver, concluded not to do so by the decisive vote of 10 to 5. ‘The silverites were present in force, the Southern Hotel lobby being almost literally packed with them. ‘The committee took on itself to act inde- pendently, although both “Silver Dick”? Bland and Gov. Stone, had personal repre- sentatives on hand. There was no tempor- izing, no equivocation, no beating around the bush. The proposition, “Shall a con- vention be called?” was met squarely and voted down on its demerits. W. H. Zeverly, representing Bland’s own district, stood for sound money. The meeting intensifies the bitter feud in the party between ex-Gov. Francis and State Chairman Maffit on one side and Gov. Stone and Charles H. Jones on the other. THE OFFICIAL WEATHER MAP.

For Virginia, fair; slight changes in tem- perature; southerly winds The intense heat continues over the country from the Mississippi valley east- ward, except in New England, where the temperature has fallen about 20 degrees. Along the New England coast the temper- ature this morning ranges from 48 degrees at Eastport to 60 degrees at Boston and Nantucket. Yesterday the temperature record for the first ten days of June was broken by from 1 degree to 12 degrees at points in the middle and east gulf and At- lantic coast states, the Ohio and Missis- sipp! valleys, and’ the lake region. The following are some of the highest temper- atures reported Sunday: One hundred de- grees at Augusta, 98 degrees at Charlotte, Raleigh, Wilmington, Charleston, Savan- nah, Atlanta, Vicksburg, Memphis, Chat- tanooga, Louisville and Indianapolis. and 93 degrees at Boston, Harrisburg, Phila- delphia, Atlantic City, Washington, Lynch- burg, Norfolk, Mobile. Montgomery, Merid- ian, Nashville, Knoxville, Columbus, Park- ersburg, Detroit and St. Louis. Thunder storms occurred last night in Pennsylvania, eastern New York and New England. This morning’s weather map shows a storm of considerable strength ceniral over the middie Missouri valley. This storm has caused heavy rain from the Dakotas and western Minnesota over Nebraska, Kansas and parts of Colorado, Oklahoma, and northwest Texas. This dis- turbance will probably move northeast- ward to Lake Superior, and cause thunder storms and rain from the great lakes over New Engiand, and the more northern of the middle Atlantic states. An early relief from the excessive heat is confidently predicted for this section. This relief will probably come in the form of thunder storms, which, owing to the conditions presented this morning are li- able to occur this evening or tonight, but are more likely to delay their advent until Tuesday evening or night.

The following were the readings of the thermometer at the weather bureau today: S$ a.m., 84; 2 p.m., 6; maximum, 97; min- imum,” 75. The result is, therefore, a decided victory for ex-Gov. Francis and Chairman Maffit. One feature of the committee's course is the wet blanket it throws over Mr. Bland’s presidential boom. Unless-there is a bolt, and that is not likely, he will not be able to contro! the vote of his own state in any national convention. ei93 “SENATOR HILL'S “IG¥ORANCE. Senator Sherman Cri{teises the Form- er's Criticinm, The Cincinnati Cornmercia}- Gazette's spe- cial from Mansfield says; Sepator Sherman, {n reply to a query as to whether he had read Senator Hill's criticism, of his Zanes- ville speech, said that he had, but that Senator Hill's remarks would indicate that he (Hill) nad not read the ‘speech. “At all the conventions in Ohio,” said the Senator, “we have‘ declared that we are in favor of the use of ‘both gold and silver maintained at_a parity. To the ex- tent that we can maingain,the silver at par with gold we coin it at the present rate. We buy the silVer’at its market value and coin it at the legal ratlo, but we main- in it by receiving iteand paying it out as he equivalent of gold.” “Is there anything in this to degrade our dollar standards, as Senator Hill says?” “It does not degrade it. The whole of is to maintain the two metals with each other.” about Senator Hill’s sarcastic reference to our silver dollars and green- back dollars being exportable?” Mr. Hill only displays his ignorance when he says that our silver money and all other forms of money are not receiva- ble in England at the value we put upon it. Because we receive it they can send it back on the steamer at a trifling cost and can use it In payment instead of gold. They can present silver certificates and we receive them the same as gold in payment of duties and otherwise. If we refuse to receive them on a parity with all other meney we would at once be on the standard of silver.” see Attempted Shooting. Last night about 10 o'clock an attempt was made to murder Sadie Young, colored, nineteen years old, at her home, No. 926 19th street northwest. Sadie was standing at the front door when the shot was fired at her. The report of the pistol badly frightened the intended victim, but the bullet lodged in the door, failing to strike her, and she escaped injury. The affair caused some excitement in the neighbor- hood ana attracted a_ crowd. The police Were soon on hand, and now they are look- for Frederick Anderson, colored, twen- x years old, who, it is alleged, fred he shot. ———— Capt. Howgate’s Trial Postponed. Because of District Attorney Birney’s cther engagements, the trial of Capt. Henry W. Howgate, set down for Thurs- day next before Judge McComas, in Crimi- nal Court No. 1, was today postponed until next Monday. As heretofore stated in The Star, the coming trial will, it is ex- pected, be upon two indictments, charging, respectively, forgery and the falsification of the defendant’s accounts in connection with a voucher for $4,000 In favor of the American Union Telegraph Company. ee Chickens Were Noisy. Benjamin W. Reiss does not enjoy the noise made by the crowing roosters and cackling hens in the yard of his neighbor, Leonard B. Freund. The warm weather prevents his sleeping through the night and the fowls annoyed him early in the morning. Freund was called up in the Police Court today to explain why he kept the noisy fowls, and his’ explanation was not sa actory. z ® “You will have to kill! the: fowls,” said Judge Kimball, “or pay @ fine.” “I won't kill them,” said his wife, “but I'll give them away or gell them.” | This was satisfactory and Michael's scnal bonds were taken. 5 eee Philosophical Society.

The New York state bridge commission met Saturday, and after looking over sev- eral plans of bridges to be built across the Hudson river, finally accepted one, which was sent in by the Union Bridge Company. The proposed bridge will be a massive and imposing structure of steel and masonry. Its New York approaches will be between s8th and 69th streets. It will contain six tracks. It will be a suspension bridge. The towers are to be cf steel and 557 feet in height each. Tkese will rest upon foun- dations of solid masonry extending to a depth of 125 feet below high water. The steel framework suppo: g the bridge will be 200 feet in height at the highest point. pe A College President Elected. Rev.

ARREARS OF ALIMONY The Interesting Tolman Case Again Before the Court ~ The Defendant Now Seeks to Have the United States Supreme Court Decide Hix Contention. In the Court of Appeals today Mr. Henry E. Davis, counsel for George Russell Tol- man, sentenced to jail several months ago by Judge Hagner for contempt of court in failing to pay his wife, Eva Frances Tol- man, alimony, prayed the court to allow an appeal to the United States Supreme Court and to continue Tolman‘s bail until the lat- ter court has decided the case. Mr, O. D. Barrett, on behalf of Mrs. Tol- man, opposed the motions, and the matter was taken under advisement by the court. The case has be2n pending since Janu- ary 22, 1802, when Mrs. Tolman filed a pe- tition for maintenance. The case was heard by Judge Hagner, who granted Mrs. Tolman a certain amount of alimony pend- ing the final disposition of the case. Tolman noted an appeal, and the Court of Appeals finally affirmed the judgment rendered by Judge Hagner. Tolman failed ; in his payments of the alimony, and Judge Hagner last winter committed him to jail for contemp@of court. Thereupon Tolman sued out a writ of habeas corpus, contending that his --om- mitment to jail was illegal and without authority of law. The matter was heard by Judge McComas, who dismissed the pe- tition, holding that Judge Hagner was fully authorized to so enforce the obedi- ence of his order requiring the payment of the allowed alimony, and, on appeal, the Court of Appeais sustained Judge Mc- Comas. lt is from this latter decision that Tol- man, a Treasury Department clerk, wishes to appeal to the United States Supreme Court, Mr. Davis contending today that he is entitlea to such an appeal as a matter of right. On the other hand, Mr. Barrett argued thet no appeal les in such a case. He also contended that in the event of the appeal being allowed Tolman should be re- quired to gtve sufficient bond not only for his appearance, but also for the payment of the alimony in arrears. ——— UNIVERSITY NOTES.
