Woodruff, tho agent of tho White Hewing Machine Company, who alleges thnl ho was assaulted nnd beaten by robbers at 233 Broadway on Friday afternoon, was fouud In his home in West Eleventh sir out yesterday afternoon. In acjordanoo, as he says, with tho advieo of his friend. Mr. E. L. Hinson, and Dr. A. Blauvolt. he had denied himself to all inter- viewers, even to Detective Oolden of tho I'oliee Central OATon. who was sent on Friday night by Puperlntendent Walling to work up the case. Mr. Woodruff appeared In hla shirt aloeves. He is 40 years of age, of medium holght. light hair and complexion, and angular features, A light tuwny moustacho curled over his upper Hp. nnd on his chin was n beanlcf twodaya'growtli. His whlto shirt front was badly crumpled, and In the upper left hnnd corner waa a blood-Mai- His head was bandaged with cotton batting and oilskin soaked with liniment and kept In position by a hluo Bilk handkerchief tisd round his chin. He spoke in an Irregular, feeblo way. with his hand pressed to his fore- head, as though ho had some difficulty in recol- lecting. " I had about 1100 In here." he tald, pressing his left hand pocket. " It was all In 16 and 110 bills nipped up in a piece of paper. I always carry mv money thnt way. Last Wednesday Mr. J.B. Allen, who la the undo of our mnn-age- Mr Teter S. Baylor, asked me for 140 to pny freight nnd insurance on a package of which we were sending to Syria. Oroo"o. I pulled out my roll of money, which then amounted to about 1140. I gave him the required amount, not taking any receipt as I knew he whs a trustwotthy person. On l inns-da- and Friday 1 carried the roll In the same pocket, wrapped In the same piece of paper. In the pocket of toy ooat was my account laxik. containing a check on the Hanover National Bank for 127.07. When the robbers grasped rue by the throat and l ulled me over bnckwurd I tried to twist around In my chair and raise mv hand to free myself. It was whllo they held me over backward that the Mi w was struck. I did not see what It was they hit me with. When I r ivorM eonacjontneaa I found my roll of bills gone, but nothing else. My account book, containing the ch ck, to- gether with other pspors. was In the si b' pi n?Kei of my cont. just as I had left tt. I bn nothing In my pants pocket with the money but some brass buttons, which, of course, they did not care for. In my right-han- pviict was about seventy-fiv- e cents In change, which they n'ao took." Mr. Woodruff exhibited the snack Which was drawn by N. S. Woodford.

He then removed tl.e bun Inge from his head nnd showed his lnmries. The swelling hud gone down almost entirely, and the cut. or longitudinal was healing slowly. The doctors bad cit a swathe through bis hair, in the un t of which could be detected a apri ol jugged pro. tuberance running three or four In lies from a point midway over the right P'tuple to the centre of the ba-'- of the head. At this si t there was still fOPM suppuration visible, but the bob- was evidently rapidly. lbiring the interview Mr. E. L. Blsson entered the r nm and objected to the pall-tit'- saying anything further, Mr. Swam exhibited great ex dement, and told Mr W IrulT In u loud tone of voice thnt if he bilked any more to the reporters he tSiss.m) "would have nothing further to do with him. Mr. Woodruff mpbaijoaJi dan lea that ha hn l lsen lr nking during the week, or had taken anything on Tuesday except a glaaa of bear at lunch, llcaaysthat he is fuiy able to account for all the moneys reoolved by him from the company, nnd thnt he intends In iiiuku up the lino stolen by the footpads out of hla own pocket. Bergennt (lay of the Broadway sqund said that when he first entered the sewing machine office on Friday afternoon alndy standing back of Mr. W Irulf whispered to him that the latter hail been drinking. Tills suggested delirium tre- mens, and the possibility of the patient's hav- ing Infli ted the injuries on himself. " I aoo said the Sergeant. " raised up his bend by placing my hand on bis forehead, and asked him suddenly, "How did you do this?" He hud seemed to be in a faint Isdore. but flared up nt 0001 nnd audi Mid II 1 didn't do it.' I n- - ke hm who did. He snld two men had come behind hint, i ' him by the neck, and struck him over the head. I asked him if he is. 1 beep drinking, and be said. 'No.' The lady afterward sai l that he hud family troubt of some kind. 1 did not mean to net harshly, but the case waa and Is a most IMploil s one." The Sergeant a i led that Mr. Allen, the nuiii-ag'-r'- s representative told htm after the crowd had gone away that Woodruff hud been Irregu-la- r In his conduct lor several days: that on Monday mid Tuesday he was drinking, nnd thnt a week ago Wednesday he had not coma near the office, Mr. Allen als- - said that he be- lieved there was a dellcieucy of I in the olll.-- accounts. "One thing you may depend upon." said tho Sergeant. "There never was any robbery Of assault at all. My tlrm conviction and that of all the deteotivea who have examined the case Is that the imurirs were iuQictud by Mr. Wood- ruff himself." Detective Oolden'j report, which was handed to Superintendent Walling yesterday, r unts Ills elToits to pr uru un Interview with Mr. Wrsnlriiff. bis failure to do so. and the tint that Mr. WoodrufTi fellow Clerk, Alien, has made damaging statements oncoming the former's Conduct previous lo the nfTiilr. The report conclude! that there is not umotenl evl to warrant the belief that the complain- ant wis cither assaulted or roblied in tile man- ner elninn-d- . The detectives have stopped working on the eune until the return of the Oompany'a managei from Boston.

Muy24. The sixtieth birthday ot Queen Victoria wna celebrated as her national day was never before celebrated In her Canadian possessions. The city was overflow- ing with soldiers and visitors. Business was suspended, snd everything and everybody were in holiday dress. The presence of a favorite daughter of the Quern combined with the visiting Thirteenth lleglment of Brooklyn toblir the sober old city to its depths. The Thirteenth Kegiment members were welcomed everywhere, and the Americans also made themselves popular. The Canadian officers and soldiers are unstinted in their praise of the regiment. Four thousnnd Canadian inllltia formed line In the Mount Itoyul I'ark. nnd, with the Thirteenth Itegnneiit in central position, was reviewed by the Mapjuisof Lome and the Princess Liulse and their suite.

Bennett were led Into the Hudson County Court of Oyor and Terminer, In Jersey City, yesterday morning, the haggard nnd nnxious expression ot their faces showed the suspense that they were enduring. Mrs. Smith's fontures woro only Imperfectly visible through the heavy folds of her crapo veil, except when she raised it occasionally aa sho sat fanning herself. The Key. Dr. Bice, tho paator of Oraco Church, who. since their arrest, hns acted aa spiritual ad- viser for tho prisoners, occupied a chair be- tween them nnd spoke to them both. After the jury had entered Judge Knapp look bin plnco on the bench, accompanied by Chi d Justice Oarrctson and Justices Brinkerhoff and Fry of the Court of Common l'lens. Attorncy-Ueuora- l Stockton then resumed his summing up. At the conclusion of the Attorney-Ucncrnl'- s spocch Judge Knapp chnrged the jury. "The accusation." be suld. "is against theso two The Indictment charges them jointly and sevornlly. I'nder It either or both may be acquitted or convicted. Tlio State Is required to establish its cose. She assumes the obliga- tion of proving the chsrgos which she makes against her citizens. She engages, further- more, to provo the charges in such an ample and sufficient manner us to remove nil reason- able doubt as to the guilt of the accused per- sons. This rule, dictated by common sense nnd common justice, baa occasionally been died to mislead juries nnd to deter thorn from the fear- less discharge of their duty. Possibilities have been exaggerated improperly Into reasonable doubts. Such possibilities are insufficient to justify nn acquittal. The doubt must be reason- able In order to warrant such a course. Evidence; must bo cither direct or circum- stantial, but In either kind there mny be srror, and wa munt adopt such lights ami pre- - cautions ns wo possess In ascertaining the truth. Society has two alternatives in the treat- ment of crime. We must either punish it or allow It to o unpunished. If we do not pun- ish it Society can tint exist, and if we an- to pun- ish It we must employ tho nest menus sfour disposal for that purpose. Whnt Is the Mat" obliged to establish In this case? The charge is that Jer.nie It. smith and Coyer) D, Betinett. on the night o! July 111. Is7. Willi malice afore- thought, inurd. p"d lln liurd II. Smith. Tho first thing to Is- - prOVexl Is tlio rlolenl death of llichr.rd II. Smith, and about that, of c uise. there rnn exist no doubt or attention. Mis. Smith was certainly present nt the time of the i:iurd'r, and we are naturally Jo I to enll on her for nn explanation.

That Is a etrcuui-stn- n v for you to cons. b-- When the poli'-- officers entered tho she found the chloroform bottle and the towel, and called their attention to the condition of the cracks In tho closet nnd the aperture made by the re- moval of a board from its flooring. Sh"Wos either telling the truth or her conduct and lan- guage bear the Impress r,f nn attempt to divert suspicion and to evade Inquiry by presenting false clues to the poll e. The hole In lh Of ejet BOOr Was two feet wide, and til" space betweeu the flour and the stairs aliove was exactly six- teen inches. It Is for you to consider whether a niHii could have obtunad admission to th house thr ugh that In lo.

Th" doors of the house with not locked nor the windows fsjsiensdj then why should the murderer have nought udiui.-sio- u by this diffi ult aperture ? Another matter for your consideration Is Mn. Smith's knowledge of her husband's q before tin quilt nnd pillow were taken from his body. Did she kimw he was dead be- cause ah" inferred It from seeing Ins hi I or did she know It se she had assisted in killing lilm I Had she u motive to the commis- sion of such a crime? This latter Is a most im- portant question. The motive is in tills case cstutilishcil by the admission of the defendants, between whom it Is conceded that there existed a strong sentiment of unholy love. Was li.

A witness has sworn that til" defendant was in I.a'ayette at alsiut 11 o'clock oh the fatal night. Presence of olio who bus u motive for is to be considered by the jury.

Which of these witnesses is correct ? Hut assuming that Cuinmings is mistaken, the quest on d Bennett s preaence ai the scene of the crime remains undecided. The testimony of Mr.--. Rich in support of the alibi are too Con fused as lo time to I I uny value. The entire testimony against Bennett must be read in the light of the eigbt-tiag- e letter. That letter Is really the only thing that connects him w.th Ibis crime. Is It a confession of guilt ? Have the defendants explained It satisfactorily? These questions you must answer." went mi t insider the different constructions pie I on the letter.

AocnrdlnD; t a despatch from Pittsburgh, Pa., published yestordav, the of a Now York life insurunoe company, which had alnrgo riak on the lire of Col. Walton Dwight of lllnghamton. told a reporter of that city that his company had reason to hollova that Col. Dwight was nllve. Inquiries made yesterday in tho nitidis of those New York compnnlos thnt grnutnd policies to him elicited the Information that no Tlee Fiesldsnt of any such company had lately teen In Pltbshurgli. nor could tho writer learn tho source or origin of tha story. An officer of a couipuuy in which Col. Dwight was insured said: "While nil evidence In tho cose g IBeh ns would satisfy a legal mind thnt Walton Dwight is dead, and while none of the companies, so far ns w" can learn, that aro elthor contesting fir expect to contest tho claim of thu legatees under Dwight 'e will have any Intention of rais- ing n iiucsttou in regard to the fuel of the death there nre, nevertheless, many gentlemen con- nected with the life Insurance Interests as ofTl-cr- "nuns"!, physicians, and spu.lul agents, or detectives, who are strongly Impressed with the suspicion that Dwight Is alive. "This Is particularly true of persons who knew Dwlght's peculiar history nnd the numer- ous gig in' Suhemes In which he engaged in imst ysnrs. In August last, while going through liankruplcy without money or credit, he applied to everf company in th" country for the lnrgejt amounts they would enrrv. asking ior nesrly M0 1,000 of insurance which would cost him. If Issued, about 115.11'Mi n ynr. II" ..btnlned a ijiiurter of a million dollars of Insurnnce on the ijiinrtcrly premium plan, thus obtain- ing the largest p ssible amount of insurance for the least possible time allowed by a life Insurance company. He mad" nil tho policies payable to his estate because if lie Imd mnde fhotn payable to his wife, her rr lijore Would hnvo got tt all, ns sho is now Insolvent, and going through bankruptcy, with aehta reachlntr n sum greater than the entire amount of Ills In- surance. Heft ire he obtained his last policy, some of the companies had become alarmed, Some recalled their policies, sonic w hose poli- cies imd been delivered refused to ik.vi.i iim premiums, while nthers tendered bti"k pre- miums ami demanded the return of the policies. All these proceedings were taken by the com- panies while Dwig it was apparently In perfect health. As noon as he hnd obtained his Inst policy he mad" his will. II" knew that in Order to have bis will val,d he must get through bankrupt 'V before ha died. Iu ins will he ueol Inee to pejy nny del ta thnt he can Is' dis iharged from ny bankruptcy, After making his will he spends nn" month hunting ami Halting. Th n ho comes to Blnghamton sick, tnatendof calling in ins family t.l yai "f flfte n yens' standing, ho eails in Dr. Hurr, who hn l never treated him before), Friday, th" lath of November, arrived, lie got ills die harg ' In bankruptcy at half past four in the afternoon, and he di-- d Unit night ut half past H o'clock. "Prom half piste until thetftneof his death lie was ah ii" with one man. The doctor ab- sent, his wife In bod, lu son in Iho country. Th" .Id tor nn Undertaker were sent for to- gether. The body waa in the hands of the within twenty minutes after the al- leged death, and It was kept from public view until MoDday,tbf 18th, whon, in n shaded room. Dr. rmncie Delatteld, a stranger, performed an ontoi,-- ) in th" presence ol fourteen doctors, who wre there simply ns lookers on. Notes were made concerning the condition In which the Is dy was found to be. All the doctor, signed the mtos. l ut tin opinion w is SX pressed In th'! uot"8 as to tho caus- - of nsath. A'tcr tho autopsy tho doctors e.i,resed th lr opinion freely. pr. John Swinburne made a written report thnt tho death was produced by asphyxia by slow stranguluilou. Dr. Ilurr mnde a report that the death was caused by a conges-liv- e chill. Dr. Delafleld male a that the death was due to paralysis of the heart. Dr. It. Itichnrds reported that no natural cause of death was revealed, Th i"st of the doctors were undecided. Tim Hrst two repots war sw rn to; the hitter were not. Dr. Deiafleld' special Which was not sworn to was first published, slid It was r"ho.l by th" public ns the report of the autopsy which had been slgu-- d by (he tllte. n physicians ; thus a false Impression was given tnthe public, Tim facte revealed by the pi:si"luti w'n. attendeiL Dwight slu wed that Ins illness was u brief and not a serious one It ha I not aft ' ted Ins pulse nor his temperature. H had not lost flesh, He was u man of great inusciilarstrengtli, was over SIX feet high. Weighed 11 polllids. nnd the au- topsy showd that ull the vital organs were healthy and vigorous. It was also shown that on the day of his death he was up nnd dressed, ami that th" burlier hnd trimmed his hair aud whlsl.ers closely, "Now. wml" a majority of the person the life Insnrano Interests are of the opinion that Dwight committed suicide, there nre some who, aa i ss.nl before, knowing Dwight's iiKi .ry. entertain n suspicion that Dwight Is ullve. nnd that u Oorpee rusembliug Dwlghl nus sutiatitiitoii f r lilm. " It Is true that the recorusol the War Depart- ment in Washing! n show that Dwight at the battle of Uettysburg was Wounded ny a ball passing through the upper thu d of the ft ilngh nml splintering the (einur. and i! is eijuully true thu! n! the iinjuest. upon exuiiiiuation, a per-f- e tly smooth bone was found, " It la true that Walton Dwight bad a square set jaw. but tli" cri s. . had SUoh a narrow jaw that the ordimiry plat.- used i.y dentlate lor on taming e'as's w as too large In lei used success- fully in gelling n cast ol the teeth, It is alleged thai Walt .11 Dwight hud a long OreOlM DOSO, while the p. is of th rpse might be properly termed hooked, it was so very aquiline, it is true that Walton Dwight. ns shown hv Ins v irl- - 6ua application to the companies, was six feet tlir'-- in lies In height, while the i -. .van only six fret nno Inch ami seven-eighths- ; hut tlo n all these discrepancies might bo due lo obanaje nder death. " 1 pi sumo the mi.! vii (lint Dwight is alive is strengthened by the many similar !c which have been met with In tbeexperion f Hie life Insurance Com tain10. To illustrate: The .Tltna Lite Insurance Company was kept in the couila four years by Mrs. Wackorle. who brought suit against the company for I5.IKMI on thu lilo of her husband, alleged by her In be dead. A cortise Imd been found and identiAed, and a verdict of accidental death returned by a Coroner's jury. Thopiililic pre look up the cause ol thu ' iHsir w idow.' and the insurance company was berated as a soulless corporal n m.

Within tho imst three nmiiths both thu ludividuuU have been found allvn. " One ..I the largest New York life Insurance companies has had within the last six weeks a vry peculiar case. A man was Insured lor $5.iKM) for tho benefit of his wife. He t,,.,k a journey w ith a gentleman friend. The gentle- man friend brought buck n corpse, which he alleged was the hit- - policy bolder. The I,,., reiivcl widow Identified the corpse, Th" friend ideutllb-- lilm.

Mr. Boott midI tlat n me f them would live b see it one of theI richest corporations In tho United Stales, andI his i ri di tiou was verified. Mr. Boott went toI Lowell tu live, and built a house on the spotI tlmt la n w the site of the Massachusetts mills.I B' re he preserved the customs that Ills earlyI da in EajrUuid hud familiarized him with.I ' 11' s a line gontloninn." said au old rosl- -

But he had realized so handsomelyIt In his lnvegttnsnt thnthis property whenW aivijcj among his loirs, a wife and six chil-

dren, was sufficiently large for a Tory hand- -

n for each. Mr. Kirk Boott, who hasJust died, was the oldest son. and was born In1817. lie bad just reached bis majority whenbib father died. Boon after he moved to Ilos-to-

wl.ere he has since resided, exceptingWlcu travelling. Many years ao ho wasa; point erk of tho oompany thatowns the Lowell water power, which hislather had assisted in organizing, and Col.

i. Hit flint company believes that this baabeen his sole business - ti It simplybis at the monthly meetings and ttiw

It is this peculiarity thatVnukea the secret mntrlage all the more sur-prising to those who (new him.

It unalloyed thnt Mr. BooM had a premonl-ti'i- n

of his approaohlmg death; for bis will Isd.it "i April 21. and he was foUB unconsciousti next lny, und dledof aponloxy on the 23d.The will ws very short, and wna drawn byLi- - I. ii is in legnl form mid properly ex-- 1

Mr. John L. Woodruff, tho agent of thoWhite Hewing Machine Company, who allegesthnl ho was assaulted nnd beaten by robbers at233 Broadway on Friday afternoon, was fouudIn his home in West Eleventh sir out yesterdayafternoon. In acjordanoo, as he says, with thoadvieo of his friend. Mr. E. L. Hinson, and Dr.A. Blauvolt. he had denied himself to all inter-viewers, even to Detective Oolden of tho I'olieeCentral OATon. who was sent on Friday night byPuperlntendent Walling to work up the case.Mr. Woodruff appeared In hla shirt aloeves. Heis 40 years of age, of medium holght. light hairand complexion, and angular features, A lighttuwny moustacho curled over his upper Hp.nnd on his chin was n beanlcf twodaya'growtli.His whlto shirt front was badly crumpled, andIn the upper left hnnd corner waa a blood-Mai-

His head was bandaged with cottonbatting and oilskin soaked with liniment andkept In position by a hluo Bilk handkerchieftisd round his chin. He spoke in an Irregular,feeblo way. with his hand pressed to his fore-head, as though ho had some difficulty in recol-lecting.

" I had about 1100 In here." he tald, pressinghis left hand pocket. " It was all In 16 and 110bills nipped up in a piece of paper. I alwayscarry mv money thnt way. Last WednesdayMr. J.B. Allen, who la the undo of our mnn-age-

Mr Teter S. Baylor, asked me for 140 topny freight nnd insurance on a package of

which we were sending to Syria.Oroo"o. I pulled out my roll of money, whichthen amounted to about 1140. I gave him therequired amount, not taking any receipt as Iknew he whs a trustwotthy person. On l inns-da-

and Friday 1 carried the roll In the samepocket, wrapped In the same piece of paper. Inthe pocket of toy ooat was my account laxik.containing a check on the Hanover NationalBank for 127.07. When the robbers graspedrue by the throat and l ulled me over bnckwurdI tried to twist around In my chair andraise mv hand to free myself. It waswhllo they held me over backward that theMi w was struck. I did not see what It was theyhit me with. When I r ivorM eonacjontneaaI found my roll of bills gone, but nothing else.My account book, containing the ch ck, to-gether with other pspors. was In the si b' pi n?Keiof my cont. just as I had left tt. I bn nothingIn my pants pocket with the money but somebrass buttons, which, of course, they did notcare for. In my right-han- pviict was aboutseventy-fiv- e cents In change, which they n'aotook."

He then removed tl.e bun Inge fromhis head nnd showed his lnmries. Theswelling hud gone down almost entirely,and the cut. or longitudinalwas healing slowly. The doctors bad cit aswathe through bis hair, in the un t ofwhich could be detected a apri ol jugged pro.tuberance running three or four In lies from apoint midway over the right P'tuple to thecentre of the ba-'- of the head. At this si tthere was still fOPM suppuration visible, butthe bob- was evidently rapidly.

lbiring the interview Mr. E. L. Blsson enteredthe r nm and objected to the pall-tit'- sayinganything further, Mr. Swam exhibited greatex dement, and told Mr W IrulT In u loudtone of voice thnt if he bilked any more to thereporters he tSiss.m) "would have nothingfurther to do with him.

Mr. Woodruff mpbaijoaJi dan lea that hahn l lsen lr nking during the week, or hadtaken anything on Tuesday except a glaaa ofbear at lunch, llcaaysthat he is fuiy able toaccount for all the moneys reoolved by him fromthe company, nnd thnt he intends In iiiuku upthe lino stolen by the footpads out of hla ownpocket.

Bergennt (lay of the Broadway sqund said thatwhen he first entered the sewing machine officeon Friday afternoon alndy standing back of Mr.W Irulf whispered to him that the latter hailbeen drinking. Tills suggested delirium tre-mens, and the possibility of the patient's hav-ing Infli ted the injuries on himself. " I aoo

said the Sergeant. " raised up his bendby placing my hand on bis forehead, and askedhim suddenly, "How did you do this?" Hehud seemed to be in a faint Isdore. but flared upnt 0001 nnd audi Mid II 1 didn't do it.' In-- ke hm who did. He snld two men had comebehind hint, i ' him by the neck, andstruck him over the head. I asked him if he

is. 1 beep drinking, and be said. 'No.' Thelady afterward sai l that he hud family troubtof some kind. 1 did not mean to net harshly,but the case waa and Is a most IMploil s one."

The Sergeant a i led that Mr. Allen, the nuiii-ag'-r'- s

representative told htm after the crowdhad gone away that Woodruff hud been Irregu-la- r

In his conduct lor several days: that onMonday mid Tuesday he was drinking, nndthnt a week ago Wednesday he had not comanear the office, Mr. Allen als- - said that he be-

lieved there was a dellcieucy of I in the olll.--accounts.

"One thing you may depend upon." said thoSergeant. "There never was any robbery Ofassault at all. My tlrm conviction and that ofall the deteotivea who have examined the caseIs that the imurirs were iuQictud by Mr. Wood-ruff himself."

Detective Oolden'j report, which was handedto Superintendent Walling yesterday, r untsIlls elToits to pr uru un Interview with Mr.Wrsnlriiff. bis failure to do so. and the tintthat Mr. WoodrufTi fellow Clerk, Alien, hasmade damaging statements oncoming theformer's Conduct previous lo the nfTiilr.

to warrant the belief that the complain-ant wis cither assaulted or roblied in tile man-ner elninn-d- . The detectives have stoppedworking on the eune until the return of theOompany'a managei from Boston.

The Indictment charges them jointlyand sevornlly. I'nder It either or both may beacquitted or convicted. Tlio State Is requiredto establish its cose. She assumes the obliga-tion of proving the chsrgos which she makesagainst her citizens. She engages, further-more, to provo the charges in such an ampleand sufficient manner us to remove nil reason-able doubt as to the guilt of the accused per-sons. This rule, dictated by common sense nndcommon justice, baa occasionally been died tomislead juries nnd to deter thorn from the fear-less discharge of their duty. Possibilities havebeen exaggerated improperly Into reasonabledoubts. Such possibilities are insufficient tojustify nn acquittal. The doubt must be reason-able In order to warrant such a course.Evidence; must bo cither direct or circum-stantial, but In either kind there mny besrror, and wa munt adopt such lights ami pre- -

cautions ns wo possess In ascertaining thetruth. Society has two alternatives in the treat-ment of crime. We must either punish it orallow It to o unpunished. If we do not pun-ish it Society can tint exist, and if we an- to pun-ish It we must employ tho nest menus sfourdisposal for that purpose. Whnt Is the Mat"obliged to establish In this case? The charge isthat Jer.nie It. smith and Coyer) D, Betinett. onthe night o! July 111. Is7. Willi malice afore-thought, inurd. p"d lln liurd II. Smith. Thofirst thing to Is- - prOVexl Is tlio rlolenl death ofllichr.rd II. Smith, and about that, of c uise.there rnn exist no doubt or attention.

That Is a etrcuui-stn- n

v for you to cons. b-- When the poli'--

officers entered tho she foundthe chloroform bottle and the towel, and calledtheir attention to the condition of the cracks Intho closet nnd the aperture made by the re-moval of a board from its flooring. Sh"Woseither telling the truth or her conduct and lan-guage bear the Impress r,f nn attempt to divertsuspicion and to evade Inquiry by presentingfalse clues to the poll e. The hole In lh Of ejetBOOr Was two feet wide, and til" space betweeuthe flour and the stairs aliove was exactly six-teen inches. It Is for you to consider whethera niHii could have obtunad admission to thhouse thr ugh that In lo.

Th" doors of the house with notlocked nor the windows fsjsiensdj then whyshould the murderer have nought udiui.-sio-u bythis diffi ult aperture ?

Another matter for your consideration IsMn. Smith's knowledge of her husband's q

cause ah" inferred It from seeing Ins hi I ordid she know It se she had assisted inkilling lilm I Had she u motive to the commis-sion of such a crime? This latter Is a most im-portant question.

Hut assuming that Cuinmings is mistaken,the quest on d Bennett s preaence ai the sceneof the crime remains undecided. The testimonyof Mr.--.

WALTOX DWIGHTS DEATH.

TIIK RECENT A RS I 'II It TIIKORT THAT BEla NOT I'l If. IIIIT ALIVtX

What an onieer of I Hie of tke lalerealed i.ir.In.nrnnre l'aiiaal. lias to Slav on theMuhjeet Hecalllne Home Cases or Fruads.

AocnrdlnD; t a despatch from Pittsburgh,Pa., published yestordav, the ofa Now York life insurunoe company, which hadalnrgo riak on the lire of Col. Walton Dwightof lllnghamton. told a reporter of that city thathis company had reason to hollova that Col.Dwight was nllve. Inquiries made yesterdayin tho nitidis of those New York compnnlos thntgrnutnd policies to him elicited the Informationthat no Tlee Fiesldsnt of any such companyhad lately teen In Pltbshurgli. nor could thowriter learn tho source or origin of tha story.

An officer of a couipuuy in which Col. Dwightwas insured said:

"While nil evidence In tho cose g IBeh nswould satisfy a legal mind thnt Walton Dwightis dead, and while none of the companies, sofar ns w" can learn, that aro elthor contestingfir expect to contest tho claim of thu legateesunder Dwight 'e will have any Intention of rais-ing n iiucsttou in regard to the fuel of the deaththere nre, nevertheless, many gentlemen con-nected with the life Insurance Interests as ofTl-cr-

"nuns"!, physicians, and spu.lul agents,or detectives, who are strongly Impressed withthe suspicion that Dwight Is alive.

"This Is particularly true of persons whoknew Dwlght's peculiar history nnd the numer-ous gig in' Suhemes In which he engaged inimst ysnrs. In August last, while going throughliankruplcy without money or credit, he appliedto everf company in th" country for the lnrgejtamounts they would enrrv. asking ior nesrlyM0 1,000 of insurance which would cost him. IfIssued, about 115.11'Mi n ynr. II" ..btnlneda ijiiurter of a million dollars of Insurnnceon the ijiinrtcrly premium plan, thus obtain-ing the largest p ssible amount of insurancefor the least possible time allowed by a lifeInsurance company. He mad" nil tho policiespayable to his estate because if lie Imd mndefhotn payable to his wife, her rr lijore Wouldhnvo got tt all, ns sho is now Insolvent, andgoing through bankruptcy, with aehta reachlntrn sum greater than the entire amount of Ills In-

surance. Heft ire he obtained his last policy,some of the companies had become alarmed,Some recalled their policies, sonic w hose poli-cies imd been delivered refused to ik.vi.i iimpremiums, while nthers tendered bti"k pre-miums ami demanded the return of the policies.All these proceedings were taken by the com-panies while Dwig it was apparently In perfecthealth.

As noon as he hnd obtained his Inst policy hemad" his will. II" knew that in Order to havebis will val,d he must get through bankrupt 'Vbefore ha died. Iu ins will he ueol Inee to pejynny del ta thnt he can Is' dis iharged from nybankruptcy, After making his will he spendsnn" month hunting ami Halting. Th n ho comesto Blnghamton sick, tnatendof calling in insfamily t.l yai "f flfte n yens' standing, hoeails in Dr. Hurr, who hn l never treated himbefore), Friday, th" lath of November, arrived,lie got ills die harg ' In bankruptcy at half pastfour in the afternoon, and he di-- d Unit night uthalf past H o'clock.

"Prom half piste until thetftneof his deathlie was ah ii" with one man. The doctor ab-sent, his wife In bod, lu son in Iho country.Th" .Id tor nn Undertaker were sent for to-gether. The body waa in the hands of the

within twenty minutes after the al-leged death, and It was kept from public viewuntil MoDday,tbf 18th, whon, in n shaded room.Dr. rmncie Delatteld, a stranger, performed anontoi,-- ) in th" presence ol fourteen doctors,who wre there simply ns lookers on. Noteswere made concerning the condition In whichthe Is dy was found to be. All the doctor,signed the mtos. l ut tin opinion w is SX pressedIn th'! uot"8 as to tho caus- - of nsath. A'tcr thoautopsy tho doctors e.i,resed th lr opinionfreely. pr. John Swinburne made a writtenreport thnt tho death was produced by asphyxia

by slow stranguluilou. Dr. Ilurr mnde areport that the death was caused by a conges-liv- e

chill. Dr. Delafleld male a that thedeath was due to paralysis of the heart. Dr.It. Itichnrds reported that no natural cause ofdeath was revealed, Th i"st of the doctorswere undecided. Tim Hrst two repots warsw rn to; the hitter were not. Dr. Deiafleld'special Which was not sworn towas first published, slid It was r"ho.lby th" public ns the report of the autopsy whichhad been slgu-- d by (he tllte. n physicians ; thusa false Impression was given tnthe public, Timfacte revealed by the pi:si"luti w'n. attendeiLDwight slu wed that Ins illness was u brief andnot a serious one It ha I not aft ' ted Ins pulsenor his temperature. H had not lost flesh, Hewas u man of great inusciilarstrengtli, was overSIX feet high. Weighed 11 polllids. nnd the au-topsy showd that ull the vital organs werehealthy and vigorous. It was also shown thaton the day of his death he was up nnd dressed,ami that th" burlier hnd trimmed his hair audwhlsl.ers closely,

"Now. wml" a majority of the personthe life Insnrano Interests are of

the opinion that Dwight committed suicide,there nre some who, aa i ss.nl before, knowingDwight's iiKi .ry. entertain n suspicion thatDwight Is ullve. nnd that u Oorpee rusembliugDwlghl nus sutiatitiitoii f r lilm." It Is true that the recorusol the War Depart-ment in Washing! n show that Dwight at thebattle of Uettysburg was Wounded ny a ballpassing through the upper thu d of the ft ilnghnml splintering the (einur. and i! is eijuully truethu! n! the iinjuest. upon exuiiiiuation, a per-f- e

tly smooth bone was found," It la true that Walton Dwight bad a square

set jaw. but tli" cri s. . had SUoh a narrow jawthat the ordimiry plat.- used i.y dentlate lor ontaming e'as's w as too large In lei used success-fully in gelling n cast ol the teeth, It is allegedthai Walt .11 Dwight hud a long OreOlM DOSO,while the p. is of th rpse might be properlytermed hooked, it was so very aquiline, it istrue that Walton Dwight. ns shown hv Ins v irl- -6ua application to the companies, was six feettlir'-- in lies In height, while the i -. .vanonly six fret nno Inch ami seven-eighths- ; huttlo n all these discrepancies might bo due loobanaje nder death." 1 pi sumo the mi.! vii (lint Dwight isalive is strengthened by the many similar !cwhich have been met with In tbeexperion fHie life Insurance Com tain10. To illustrate:The .Tltna Lite Insurance Company was kept inthe couila four years by Mrs. Wackorle. whobrought suit against the company for I5.IKMI onthu lilo of her husband, alleged by her In bedead. A cortise Imd been found and identiAed,and a verdict of accidental death returned by aCoroner's jury. Thopiililic pre look up thecause ol thu ' iHsir w idow.' and the insurancecompany was berated as a soulless corporal n m.Last Novomlier ncterle turnetl un alive InI lull for n la. ami was induced to come hast by thecompany, lo the natoinslinicnt of his wife's

"A prominent Western company paid twoclnlins of IIO.IHKI each, one of th"in seven yearsago. and the other eight years una. Within thoimst three nmiiths both thu ludividuuU havebeen found allvn.

" One ..I the largest New York life Insurancecompanies has had within the last six weeks avry peculiar case. A man was Insured lor$5.iKM) for tho benefit of his wife. He t,,.,k ajourney w ith a gentleman friend. The gentle-man friend brought buck n corpse, which healleged was the hit- - policy bolder. The I,,.,reiivcl widow Identified the corpse, Th"

friend ideutllb-- lilm. He had beenaccidentally killed, it was said, a down ormore reputable citizens, whoso honesty is nottu ths least doubted, swore positively to tholilenllflenlti.il. Wiiat wile llie seijllel ? The latelamented poll y holder was found nllve. Thecorpse was dwoovered to be tbo body of a manwho hud resid 'il iu n h"iglihoi-in- town.

"Tlio cases of Hninlorlh, peeDOUi. Dmiat.Mi'Fudden. Davis, Go I dderaook, Palmer,Ileal us, Wnllie. aud many others are fresh inliie minds of Insurance nfleor. and It Is notstrange that some who have suffered by theirexperienoe in tlio past should look at thisDwight cnae wilh a great dual oj siispi n. Ibelieve it is hound to be the most celebratedease of the century, and I further believe thatwhen n clear Investigation is had In a propercourt, the press and the public, will fully end, tsuthe companies that caused the iiivestiguliou."
