He Scads Bullet Thro(ti Mis Brain A.li sscccssfnl Attempt at Sell Dcstractioi. A coroner's Inquest was held yesterday to determine, If possible, the maimer in which Esther Gunlon met her death. Several witnesses testified, and some startling revelations were made. An ex pressman testified that he had seen Miss Ounlon yesterday morning on the road way near Smith's Point In company with a man. He identified the body aa that of the woman he had seen on the bridge. The expressman says when he met the couple they were both In an Intoxicated condition. The man asked him If he would take the woman up town, as she was so drunk she could scarcely walk. This the expressman agreed to do, but as the man could not lift Miss Ounlon Into the wagon, the expressman drove ofr. He says he Is positive the woman Is the same person as the one seen on the bridge, but he says he thinks he would not be able to Identify the man. From the developments yesterday. It would appear that the woman was not murdered up the river, but in this city. Others beside the expressman are Hit Id to have seen her In Astoria yesierday as late as 9 or 10 o'clock. It Is the belief that the party with whom she was seen murdered her. Indications at present make It probable that Miss Gun Ion was crushed with rocks, while lying In a drunken stoupor on the beach. John Yoppera, who found the body, says there were several Uirge stones on tne corpse, ami that one weighed at least Wi pounds. It Is bdleved the murderer or murder ers dropped the rocks upon the woman from the trestle, which uccounts for the frightful gashes on the head. That she was not killed up the river Is an estab lished fact, and the n-sassln is supposed to be In Astorlx The Inquest has been postponed until Monday, by which time It Is thought the murderers will bo ap prehended.
