Army and Navy Athletes Meet. PHILADELPHIA. March 14 Representa tives of the army and navv athk-tlc as sociations met today to discuss future ath letic contests between the two Institutions. The arrangements for this year's foot ball game and the question of tickets and ticket scalping were discussed. The navy repre sentatives presented a new set of rules, which barred all players who had competed for four years r.t some other institution prior to their admission to West Point or Annapolis. The army opposed this rule nnd insisted that future Karnes be played under the snme conditions as heretofore. No decision was reached. With 01. ly four of the league teams to flnlfh tut the ftamn, It Is not difficult to forecast results. The Wf sterns miet the Gate Citys nn Tues.iny evening for throe ga.Ties and on Thursday evening the Clark sons and Krug Pniks plHy three games. If the Gate Cltys lost all three of the games and the Clarksons won thi Irs 'he two teams would tie for second place, but it In hardly a probability that such will lie the case. The teams will undoubtedly linlh the sea son in their present order. The Clarkson loit their opportunity to step Into second plne last week, when they lost two of three gamer played with the Gate Cltys. Had they taken all three of them they would have been hard to displace, and even a majority of the games would have put them dei'idedly In the running. The Indi vidual scores are still led by Emery, with an average of lto 30-60. There are only thirty-one on the list this week, one less than the preceding week, bji fellows: Gomes. Pine. Average.

Judge Murphy today opened the Inquest on Edwin I Burdlck, who was found murdered In his house on February 27. 'Under the law we are compelled to hold this inquest," said Judge Murphy. "Wo charge no one with thla crime. The pur pose of this Investigation Is to lay this crime, if possible, at tha door of somo one." Dr. Howland paid he was summoned to the Burdlck home by telephone on- the mornlcg of February 27. Dr. W. H. Marcy met him at the door and told him that something hatd been going on there and that Mr. Burdlck was dead. "I am not sure," continued Dr. Holland, but I think he told me that he wua not certain whether It was murder or suicide. He BBked me to make it out as a case of suicide. If possible, as there had been a good deal of gossip In the neighborhood respecting the relations existing between Mr. and Mrs. Burdlck. He then examined the body and told Dr. Marcy that It wca Impoarlble to enter tain the suicide theory for a minute. Blurderer Moves Body. Mr. Coatsworth brought out the fact that Burdtck's body bad been moved by tho mur derer after the crime had been committed. Tho witness saw no weapon In the room. "What was your conclusion as to whether Burdlck was killed In tha den?" he was asked. i "I think he was." "When he was killed was he lying on the couch In the position In which you found the body?" "Judging from the location of the wounds, he must have been lying in some other po sition at tho time he was struck." A moment later he described a tuft of hair he found on the couch. He waa of the opinion that it was longer than Burdlck's hair. The doctor stated that from the condi tion of the body ho was of thi opinion that Burdlck waa killed about 2 o'clock. This Is regarded as important, as It would tend to nullify the statements made to the dis trict attorney by Officers Me;'er and Rich ard regarding the "lone woman." In reply to another question, an affirma tive answer to which would have shown that a woman had been In the room, the doctor gave a, negative repl;'. Detective John W. Holralund also had a talk with Dr. Marcy. who gave him the Impression that he wanted the matter kept secret. Has Presentiment of Evil. Mrs. Hull, mother of Mrs. Burdlck, the next witness, said her daughter was at At lantic City oc the nlstht of the murder. Proceeding, she entered Into a minute account of her doinga that night and went on to tell of finding the body. "I went to the den," she said, "and opened the door a little and called 'Ed, Ed, Ed.' I saw something on the couch. It was dark In there I saw the Murray girl In the hall and said: 'Maggie, I fear that Bomethlng has happened. I do not dare go In there, do you? What shall we do?' "Then I said that we bad better send tor Dr. Marcy." "Why didn't you go In?" "I wss too nervous." "What did you think?" "I did not know what had happened. I thought perhaps It was Ed on the couch." "But you h&d seen him sleeping before. Why were you afraid to see him sleeping?" "If he had been Bleeping my screams would have awakened him. I was afraid to find him dead in there. Of course I did not know it was Ed." "Then you did scream?" "Yea, as loudly as I could. I did not arouse him and I was frightened." "You had no reason for expecting to find htm dead In there?" 'No, except that be did not respond to my Bcreanis." Witness Provoklaaly Calm. At this point Mr. Coatsworth handed her a photograph of the den with the body of the murdered man lying on tho couch covered as Dr. Marcy found It. Mrs. Hull took the photograph with a steady hand am', looked at It Intently and calmly. "Does this photograph represent the den as you saw It that morning?" asked Mr. Coatsworth. "I do not remember." Continuing, she said she had never asked and had never been told the details of the tragedy. Eli. deUed having said that she thought she knew someone who might have done it. She and Burdlck had never quarreled; in deed, her son-lnlaw had always treated her kindly and with consideration. "Isn't it a fact that you only stayed In that house after your daughter left on ac count of love for the children?" "Yes, and for Mr. Burdlck's sake." Maggie Murray, the dead man's cook, was called to contradlet certain unimpor tant details In Mrs. Hull's story, and the hearing was adjourned. BEATS INDOOR MILE RECORD Mirhlfran Athletes Basil?
