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:

BUFFALO, N. Y., March 14. 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

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?"

would have awakened him. I was afraid
to find him dead in there. Of course I
did not know it was Ed."

arouse him and I was frightened."

"Yes, and for Mr. Burdlck's sake."
