ROBERT RAY HAMILTON DEAD. 8o Declares Dr, James 0. Green, Who Ordered His Burial HIS OPINION OF THE STORIES AFLOAT, Btory of the Dead Lawyer's Life in the Mountaing — His Dog Stayed with the Body-Reasons for Burial, (Copyright 1891 by James Gordon Bennett.\ Pivr, Feb., 11.—-[New York Herald Cable—Special to Tiur Bee.]—"That is un- doubtedly the watch I took from the pocket of adead man in the Rocky mountains last summer,” said Dr. James O. Green today, when the timepiece of Robert Ray Hamilton was laid beforo him by the dead lawyer's brother, who has just arrived from America with a commission empowering Consul Post to take evidence proving the deatn. Dr. Green turned to me and saic *I wish the Herald would say there is not tho slightest truth in the wild, fantastic stories afioat. Hamilton is dead and he un- doubtedly was drowned while trying te ford @ stream on horseback after dark, The idea thata corpse was dressed up in Hamilton's clothes fnorder that he might quietly disap- pear in some distant land whero the story of ks bigamous wife and bogus baby could not follow him is absurd. To carry out sucha y one would have to assume a murder, r in no other way could a corpse be pro- cured. Jackson's Hole valley, whore the body was found, is surrounded by high moun- tains, and Point Soake river, where the ccurred, isover ono hundred and s from Kontucky, the nearest rail- fon. The suggestion of suicido is equally foolish “Mr. Hamilton was riding with his dog from his ranch at one end of Jackson's lake to his ranch atthe other end, fifteen miles His workmen, who were building asort of 1og hiotel, had complained that they ne fresh meat. Mr. Hamilton was, therefore, anxious to kill some game and was led out of his path by anantelope which he killed. It was probably after dark, because the men generally wind their watches at dusk in the wildernoss, and when I examined Mr. Hamilton's wateh, T found it had stopped & fow minutes past 9 and had only run down a couple of snaketurns of the winder. He had to cross the river to reach the ranch and there was an inviting looking bar stretching fnto the stream, just where the body was discovered, but the water beyond was deop and swift and full of weeds. Hamilton, weighted with a full cartridge belt, had hu spurs, which, no doubt, caught in the we The saddle was pulled under the horse's belly and so the dog was able to get at the antelope’s haunchs which wero tied to it and keep himself alive, during tho elovon days, beforo rchers came upon the place. Until this moment, I have kept the secret of the real renson for which the face of the corpse could not be recognized. 1didnot want to shock the family. The fact is, it was not only swollen and discolored in a most awful way, but the fishes or turtles had mutilated it as the body floated, face dowaward, of course. All the blood settled at the bottom and Ham- flton’s father could not have told anything about the corpse excopt by the clothing or private marks, I wish the Herald would say that I strongly object to the statement that I have, atany time, 1dentified tho corpse. “I did not know Hamilton in life, and even 1£1 had, it would not have bettered the case. The veason why Hamilton was not missed sooner is very simple. His partner, Sargent, was in the ranch at oneend ot the lake and Mrs. Sargent was in the ranch at the other. Mrs, Sargent supposed he was with her hus- band and Sargent thought he was with the wife. When the husband and wife met, they knew something had happenea and they called for a general search. They supposed he had been killed byhorse thieves and it was through one of these searching parties that the bunting camp learncd the story of the disappearance. Mrs. Sargent told them Mr. Hamilton intended to go to New York in October to have his marriage with Eva Maun nullified and return to the Rockies in the spring and stay there for the xest of his life. Idid not meet Sargent, but was told by the men ho had fully identified tho corduroy jacket, tho coat, dark trousers, logeings, gloves and boots of the dead man as cho clothes of Hamilton. Be- sides that I found a leather book, of trout flies in the pocket with the name Hamilton marked in ink. It will be impossible to reach Sargent for some time, as there must be, at least, twenty feet of snow on the trail intoJackson’s Hole. It isone of vhe wildest, most inac- cessiblo yalieys in the Kockies, Tho trail I followed was the one Goneral Sheridan cut for President Arthur's owstone park trip. 1t will be impossible legally to 1dentify Humilton’s corpseuntil Mr. and Mrs, Sargent are reached. They are the only persons alive who can dot, but no one nced have any doubt that Hamilton is really dead and that ho died by accident. The st 1 saw of the poor fellow wus the boat containing the body, covered witt: green boughs, gradually disappearing in the distance. When I got to the head of the lake, Istopped a carpenter who was building ahouse for Hamilton and told Kim he must build another kind of a house, a coffin. “All the surrounding circumstances show that nothing was prearranged about the tragedy. Hamilion left oneranch to go w0 tho other; took with him a horse and dog found near the body. The clothes on the body were his. The antelopo haunches ac- count for tholate hour of the accident and the place where itoccurred. He floated away; his vifio sank in the stream. Searchers told me they could find it by dragging the bottom but it would bo rusted and use- less. Hamilton’s blaukets were left 1n the ranch by him, showing that he did not intend to stopout over night. Besides ne was full of plans and actually died whilo they were in progress. I have no pavience with those who say the failure to bring tho body to New York s suspicious. ‘The body was buried on my advice. Iama physician, I examined it toseoif thero were any evidences of crime and my duty to society was ended. Then I totd the people there, that, as the corpse had been in the water cleven days and was bloat- ed to such an extent that by the time it was carvied @ hundred and fifty miles to a railway It would bein a condition that would compel the railroad to refuse it transportation, the project was out of the question, and so 1 said flatly that the body must bo buried at Jackson’s Hole. “AtMrs, Sargent’s request, 0ae of our party photographed the hillside where Ham- ilton once said he would love to be buried. You may bosure, when Sargent is reached, tie will kmock all those dime novel theories 1o pieces and establish the death of Hamilton perfectly. He is a man of edacation and in- telligence.” This was substantially the story Dr. Groen also repeated to Cousul Post under oati. Fe positively denied auny ideutifica- tion. Parncll to O'Brien, Loxpo, Feb, 11,—Parnell, in a letter to O'Brien, says: “The last information Gill conveyed tome on our negotwations being of o final character, I concluded that nothing s left to be done on wy part but to bring our endeavors W & closs. I regret that it has not been rendered possible for me to consider national interests so safely guarded that I could feel there would be no danger to the cause in my now surrendering the responsi- bility which has been placed upon me and which T have accepted from the hands of our nation and race, 1 regret that no course is left but a withdrawal from the negotiations. The seal of confidence which covers what has passed botween us prevents inviting public judgment. But if 1t1s ever moved I am confident it will be held that I did every thing in my power consistent, with national interests to promote peace and reunion. Whatever side true Irismen take, they owo you thanks for your efforts. O'BRIEN'S STATEN Reunion the Only Thing That Can Save the Ivish Canse. Loxnoy, Feb. 11.—William O'Brien has issued another long statement on the Irish situation. He says: “The experience of the past five weeks, gathered from porsonal interviews, lotters and news- paners, completely confirms my con- viction that only nlon can save the Imsh canse.”~Referring to tho ro- cent Boulogne conference he says: *I can- ot too strongly express with what feclings loment so vital shipwrecked at the last moment by more contests of words and_phrases—contests which, to my we found a mind, offers a shockingly inadequate excuse for committing ~ the country to a struggle involving consequences 80 ap- palling.” "Tn conclusion O'Brien saye: “One of the saddest things inthis traffic business is that circumstances rendered it impossible to give organized effect to the overwhelming nu longing for a reconciliation while the field is held by heated partisans who have done their worst by exasperating language and insulting suspicions, scarcely veiled threats and rumors and intrigues to make the work of peacomaking impossible, The irreconciliables of all sections have car- ried tho day. Dillon and myself caunot longer stand between them aud their de- plorable work. We can do nothing more titl we have recovered freedom of action by getting through with tho sentence standing against us.” Mr. O'Brien expresses thehope that the inevitablo conflict forced upon the country may be conducted without persoual bitterness, so when the unhappy passions of the hour Liave oxhausted themselyes all may ugain co-oporate in the nation's cause. Dillon iu a short statement admits that he bas been largely influenced to mediate by the vindict tion of Parnell's most promi- nent opponents, The personal clement in the strugglo had 1 many minds hopelessly obscured great public _issues and driven thousands in cland and America into Parnell’s camp ®ho otherwise would have opposed his continued leader- ship, “Events have fully borne out O’ Brien’s vieavs s to tho method of compromise, but fror the beginning of the negotiations power- ful influences were working on both sides against peace, and we are now compelled to sorrowfully announce failure.” A Heavy Responsibility. Loxnoy, Feb, 11.—[Special C cording to the Gazette, have shown a strange vacillation in ing Mr. Parnell as coequal with tho Irish representa- tives and in nogotiating in the old lines of committee room as if mo devosition or Kilkenny election had occurred. The Gazette adds that when Mr. Pamell's defeat promised to become final it was in- cr ble weakness to consent to a one-sided truce, leaving Mr. Parnell free to prosecute his ends while Mr. O'Brien suppressed the only organ of Dublin opinion left to the Irish people. Mr, Pamell has hangttily ruptured the negotiations his opponents humbly initi- ated. The Gaztte does not doubt that M O'Brien and Ditlon will repair the the mischiof done and rovert to the anti-Par- uvellite position which they assumed in their December manifestos ‘What London Papers Say. Loxpoy, Feb. 11.—The Standard says it is understood that Parnell took exception to the inadequate assurances given in rogard to the right of imperial veto and Irish representa- tion at Westminster. The Irish campaign will be based upon the principle of resistance to clerical dictation. The News assumes also that the mnegotia- tions failed because the liberal leaders de- clined to give any assurance regarding the home r Th O'Bricn's ‘“lachrymoso gehius wails through the turgid and iu sentences of the manifesto like a liter bansheo.” The Telegraph thinks it is a_ serious ques tion whethor Lord Zetland might not for the safety of tho Irish people quash the convic- tion of Dillon and O’Brien to enable them to take such active part in tho coming war as they and their constituents may eonsider best for mutual protection, McCarthyites on Parnell. Loxpox, Feb. 11.—McCarthyite members who were seen in the lobby of the commons today say that Parnell's vefusal to come to blo terms will stiffen their attitude and ase thewr resolves to resisc his claims, It is not certain that all points will be settled at tomorrow’s meeting. Parnell Will Not Recode. Loxpoy, Feb. 1L.—In an interview today Parnell declared that he would not recede from his position, which, he said, was con: sistent. He would not submit, he said, t he dictationof l.ludslunu and llh, ['I'h:wli ol Dr. Birney cures eatarrh, Bee bldg. s wa LLN PLAYS HIGH, But the Card Scandal May Break Up . the Business. Loxnoy, Feb, 5 The Chronicle, referring to the card scandal says: The prince of Wales ad- dressed Sir Gordon Cumming in very strong language, which was keeoly resented and which according to Cumming, was the cause of his signing in a moment of panic and agi- tation a document in which he forswore the card table. After this miduight scene, the prince of Wales locked the doors and \luduml the five parties presentto secrecy. When 1t leaked out, all were vastly surprised and do- clared that they had rigidly kept faith with the prince.

Thero wasa large attendance of members of the exchange, and a number of real estate men and others, not members, wero also peesent. The committeo appointed at a provious meeting to cousider and report uvon any changes in the present law, presented the bill prepared by the real estate exchange, which changes the law in such a way asto givo la- borers only a lien upon property, doing away with that feature of the present law whieh protects material men and gives them alien upon the property secoud only to a prior mortgage. The bill was submitted by the committee without recommendation, The report of the committee was accopted ana the matter brought before the exchange for discussion. Chris Specht was tho first speaker. Ho was opposed to any change in the law, Tho freater part of the buildings in the state had been erected by irresponsiblo parties, and the adoption of the law as proposed would only serye to increase the number of these people. Robert Livesey spoke in favor of the pres- ent law, and said that if any change was made it'should be o clean swéep and not a one-sided arrangement which would be only favorable to the rich contractor. George H, Boggs of tho real estate firm of Boggs & Hill was presont aud was invited by Prosident Hussey to address the moeting, Mr. Boggs said ho bad had somo disastrous experionce with the present lien law, and had lost considerable land through the umflrm tion placed upon the law by the supreme court, Under this decision any person has a right to squat upon tne land of another and encumber it with a lien without tho knewledge or consent of the owner, Ho ad- vocated the abolishment of the esent law and the adoption of the law prescated by tho comumittoe, which would give all an oqual show, MF. Boggs went into details fn ex- plainiug his position and the experionce bo | had had in the supreme oourt, during which recital he was subjectod to o Funning fire of cross-questions by Lowis Bradford, who sought to show that Mr, Boggs was in the habit of selling lots on_contracts with small cash payments with the understanding that the purchaser was to improve the land by erecting a house. A member of the oxchange raised a point of order and Mr. Bogrs took his seat. Mr. Gibson of the firm of Welshans & Gib- son argued that the matorial men should be protected. If the presontlaws wore repealed material men would have no protection from the deadbeats, and there would be no induce- ment for them to come Lo Omaha. Louis Bradford was tho next speaker, and he opposed the stand taken by Mr, Boggs. He said the real estate men were in the habl of selling lots on cont , taking £ or §10 as tho first payment and _compelling the pur- chaser to erect o houso on the lot in order to make the security better. Under tho de- cision of tho supromo court referred to by Mr. Boggs, the scllr who compels the purchaser to build becomes a re sponsible party and a guarantor for the mate furnishod. It the real estate men wanted protection they should sell lots logitimately and take mortg: which should be put on record. They would then be ahead of all the lien holders, who 1ld have to take the ances, John Wakefield endorsed what Mr. Brad- ford had said, and was followed by Chris Specht, who read the riot actto those r estate fon who buy Acro property at (200 and sellitat $10,000 to poor men, from whom they take a very small payment and require the purchaser to 1mprove the property at once. If these men wanted protec had it in their power to protect th and should not seck the repeal of the lien law, which gaye the material men protection, Mr. Boggs took the floor agaln to protect himself against the attacks which had been made on him. He repeated hisassertion that the decision of the supreme court made 1t possible for an irresponsible party to plac lien upon proverty without the own knw\vl\'nlm‘nrmup«»vn and challenged any ma- teriat man to contradict him Then followed a prolonged discassion 1n the matter, in which the same ground was gone over again and again without developin any new {mmm\g Il the material men being op- vow to any change in the lawand Mr, Boggs being alone in his position in favor of its repeal, During the course of this discussion Chris Speent, in language more forcible than po- lite, aenounced the contemplated change as a land shark scheme designing to rob the poor man and sell property atafigure far in ex- cess of its value. After those present had fully discussed the subject, all who were not members of the ex- change were invited to rotire and & vote was taken upon the adoption of the report of the committeo, which resulted in the report not being adopted. e THE ANTI-THIES SOCIETY. Its Precautions Laughed to n by the Light-Fingered Gentry. The members of the Douglas County Anti- Thief society are in sackeloth and ashes. Their heads are bowed fn grief. Some weeks ago this society, which has its headquarter in McArdle precinct, published to the world that a reward of 0 would bo pald for the arrest of any person caught stealing from any member of the society. Since that time the tmeves have be making the lives of the offices very burdensome. First the treasurer, Car- son RRhorer, was visited by tho light-fingored gentr; d when theyleft, all of his turkey: and chigcl some on® hundred iunumber, went too. A few nights later they visited the residence of Claus Sievers, the late secre- tary, and while he slept drove away a fine fat cow, no trace of which was ever obtained. The present, secretary, J. C. McArdle, was then visited, and two wecks ago he was aroused fron his slumbers, and gun in hand he rushed 1o his hen houso to find that some person had walked away with 150 geose, turkeys and_chickens. But the raid_that lays all others in tho shade was made Tues- day night. The captain of tho ssoclation is James Walsh. Tuesday he spent the day in Omaha and remained over might. When he went homo Wednesday morniug it was to fird that during the preceding night some person had visited bis premiscs, broken open the granary and stolen nearly one hundred bushels of oats, bosiaes completely demoral- izing his stock of poultry by taking away all of the fowls. The members of the society held a meoting yesteraay, renewed their vows avd swore Vengeance on_thieves. Hereafter memb of the association will nightly patrol the pr cinct, and if a man who cannot give an count of himself is found, his chances of will be excoedingly slim.
