CATTLE It wns nnotltcr day of liberal
receipts , there being 2,113 cattle In , ns
against 2,085 yesterday and 1,610 on Wednes
day of last week. Other points were re
porting largo receipts and lower markets ,
especially on heavy beef cuttle.
Under the conditions prevailing nt other
market points sellers were generally pre
pared for lower prices here , but still they
were a little slow to mnko concessions ,
which kept the market from being very
active. The demand , however , wns fnlr ,
both local nnd shipping , nnd the move
ment was as nctlve as could be expected
under the circumstances. The heavy cat
tle sold about lOc lower , while the handy
light cattle did not show so much decline ,
In fact , were pretty close to steady In
some cases.
The market on cows nnd heifers did not
show much change. Good stuff was fully
Eteady nnd the demand was nctlve , the
offerings being picked up readily. The
medium grades were n little easier and not
such free sellers.
The fresh receipts of stockers nnd feeders
were- light nnd tbq market In good shape ,
values being Just about steady on all
grades. The country demand keeps up
and arrivals meet with quite ready sale
on about every day of the week.
Yesterday one buyer from Iowa picked up
fJG3 head nnd shipped them-Into the coun
try last night. Representative sales :

face when the body was found la In the
possession of the detective department , but
Its condition Is kept n profound secret. The
most Incriminating fact , however , Is thnv
the Blrl's lips nnd nlmost the entire In
terior of the mouth were burned nnd dis
colored ns If by ncld poison , while LanRdon's
tor.Rito , from tip to palate , ( s n scries of
ulcers and mucous patches which , according
to his own statement were nn there before
Momlny. ilu condition Is almost exactly
similar to that , existing In the Rlrl'H mouth ,
except In the Inttcr It Is more nggravuto.l.
The stntomolitH made by Dcrtha Stewart ,
the colored servant employed by the couple ,
clearly show Important fuels. She was the
last person , with the exception of I.angdon ,
who saw the girl alive. This was about
3:30 : o clock Sttntlny nftcrnoon. Mrs. Lang-
don , ns she. wns known , came down stairs
nnd told the servant to prepare dinner.
She then returne.l to the bedroom , where
her supposed husband had been with her
all dny. There was no further sign from
the upper part of the house until 4:30 : , when
she heard n piercing scream. She hurried
upstairs and knocked nt the door. Langdon ,
clad only In n night shirt , opened the door
slightly and told her that her mistress was
suffering from a bilious attack , to which
she was subject. Through the aperture the
servant saw her mistress lying on the bed
with the towel on her face. She wns motion
less nnd may have been dead at that time.
Langdon had evidently been lying on the
floor.
At C o'clock 'ho came down alone to din
ner and told the girl not to disturb htsr mis
tress , who was not well. nc gave her the
keys of the liouso and left , saying he was
going to Now York. That flight the body
was discovered. The girl's relatives deny
thnt she was ever subject to bilious at
tacks.
Tuesday morning the Stewart girl re
ceived n postal card from Langdon. It had
been mailed after he left the house the night
before , and instructed her If her mistress
was no hotter by Tuesday to notify her
father , Henry JlcOrath , 2018 Gratz street.
COMPLAINED OF U13ING ILL.
When arrested yesterday Langdon com
plained of being 111 and shortly nfterward
vomited copiously. Ho told Pollca Surgeon
Andrews that his tongue nnd throat were
ulcerated from exccwlve smoking , but that he
had not before been troubled by such an
affection. . The surgeon found the throat In
good condition , and snys that Fmoklng does
not produce such nn ulecratlon as In this
case. The mouth looked as if it had been
, burned | by nn Irritant , such ns ether ot
chloroform. It might have , been produced by
a mineral acid In a small quantity. It was
clearly recent.
The authorities refuse to Bay whether or
lot the towel uhows nny spots , but they ad
mit that there was the odor of drugs In the
rooms. This may bo explained by the fact
that both other nnd chloroform evaporate
rapid y and after the I3pso of some hours
oultl leave no cdor.
Ono of the first results of ether , said the
under Its f-1"1"10'10"- person Juot put
Influence might become excited
and scream loudly , it Is almost certain that
the commonwealth holds this theory of the
Detective Prank P. Geyer , who unraveled
the Holmes murders. Is on the case and
when asked for his opinion said : "People
'
don't scream unless placed In a perilous
position. Only one theory can be held. The
girl Is dead , and the man Is alive and locked
up. "
Bertha Stewart made the further state
ment today that orv Monday morning she
went to awaken Langdon , but could not
arouse him. She heard him breathing
stontoriously almost snoring. She made
another attempt later In the day with a
similar result.
Special Murder Investigator Darlow of the
district attorney's ofllce was closeted with
the detectives for a time today.
The father of the dead girl told Coroner
Ashbrldgo today that his daughter had de
ceived him. Her excuse for absences of
three or four days at n time was that she
had been visiting friends , and this was ac-
coptcd without question.
No time has been , set for the Inquest.
The girl's body has been removed to her
father's homo , and will bo quietly burled In
day or two.
Detective Geyor positively contradicts the
statement that Langdon is divorced from his
wife.
Prof. Leffman , who Is analyzing the con
tents of the stomach of Miss McGratli , said :
"Thus far I have found that the stomach
shows no signs of bilious troubles. The
girl's death might have been caused by
morphine or ether. There arc no Indica
tions that she swallowed laudanum. In the
region of the heart there were several blood
clcts , but I cannot say at present whether
these could have caused death. "
In Miss McGrath's pocket' was $100.
Today Langdon sent for n physician. Ho
said to bo qulto III , but the nature of his
Illness Is unknown. It has come to light
that Miss McGrath was engagcj to bo mar
ried and that she had been wearing a KO- | |
tntro diamond engagement ring , This ring
was found on Langdon after hlu nrrcst ,
together with other jewelry belonging to
the girl.
Pollca Lieutenant Lyons has admitted
that a bottle nearly filled with chloroform
had been found In the room In which the a
girl died. It came from a drug store near
the house ,
PITTSUUIIO , March 2D. It was learnrd
this afternoon that Mrs. Langdon , the wlfo
Samuel P. Langdon , who Is held by the
Philadelphia police pending the Investigation
Into the cause of Annlo McGrath'u death , has
been living with her parents at Sprlngdale ,
Allegheny county , ever since Lnngdon ap
plied for a divorce , The petition wan fllod
Illalr county last July nnd was for an
ibsoluto divorce on the ground of cruel and
barbarous treatment. Mru , Langdon made n
complete denial of the charges. The divorce
s&eo is still pending.

BAY CITY , Mich. , March 25. A heavy
wind from the south has started the Ice out
of Saglnaw bay from whnt ID called the lllff
Crnck * , nnd with It went fully 150. fishermen
who occupy shanties on the Ice. Unless they )
can make shore on either side of the bay they
will be obliged to remain on the Ice until
the wind gets back to the north and blowa
the Ice back Into place. As high winds prevail ,
however. It Is believed all the fishermen will
reach tlmro with their shnntlcs , each at
which Is on rimnero. Some of the fishermen
arc supplied with boita for use In cnsca ot
