They havna rtxrm of their own. where they receive their friends, but never In anything but street eostnnif.'' The next witness was Han Koppe, the Janitor of the double-diiCk- tenement lirni-- y at IM Chryalle street, whlrh adjoin. Kuenstler Halle. Koppe testified to the respectability of the m. rert hall, and said he frequently took his wife there In the evening. Miss t.'ecllla Krumm. the daughter of the com- plainant, about IT yearsof age. was much fright- ened when put on the witness stand. Hhe knew lvy.she said, but hail neve'. l"ken to him. Hhe had seen htm In the dining room of her home talking with her father, bntdld not know what they had said, as she was almost Imme- diately ordered to leave the room ly her father, Tills was In March, she saM. Miss hrumm (minted to the defendant, and when he rose she said she thought that was the man. "Ilut are you sure of Itr WWY you swear to It " asked Lawyer I,evy. " He looks very much like the. man I saw," she said, " but I cannot swear to It." Wilhelm Uonalm, an extra wnlter around the concert hall, was called. Honalm testified to having seen Levy In the concert hall on March 1. Levy and another man were there together, and they all went Up to the room of: the gallery. A llttla-whll- afterward Mr. Krumm called for a Isittle of Moselle wine and three cigars. A few minutes later, Honalm said, he stood by the hall door, which was partly closed, and heard Ievy and Mr. Krumm talking. He heart Levy say! " It's all right now. Oo right on and play." The next week the place opened, and It remained open until May 1. Charles Schwenitkc. the "outside man." as he was known In Chrystle street, was next called. "You are what Is commonly known as a bouncer, are you notr" asked Mr. Osborne. "No." replied the witness, fiercely, "I am a Schwencke'sald that on the night of March 8, the first night a concert was held without a li- cense. Levy came to him and told him that he must look sharp and be very careful whom he let Into the place. " ' He very careful,' he said, and don't let any one In unless you know him,' " said Schwcncke. On the wttncia said that he had been nicknamed Krenchy for years, but j he hsd no Idea why he was so called. lawyer Levy questioned him about the ctwtumes worn In tne place, and pressed him so closely that Judge Martlue Interrupted, and ssld: "Oh. what does It matter The testimony shows that nothing worse than short skirts were ' won. Why, In some places ln this city, at the roof gardens, for Instance, some of the perform- - ers wear almost nothing nowadays. ' Lawyer Levy let the subject of lostnmes alone after this, and began to question the witness about the electric bell. He asked Schwcncke If It was not true that the bell was there to warn those Inside when the police came. " No, of course not." said the witness fiercely. "We did not need to warn anybody of the ap- proach of the police, because we were running all the time under police protection." With the testimony of Hchwencke the prtwe- - rutlon rested. Lawyer Levy moved for the ills- - . missal of the defendant. He read seventeen reasons why Levy should not be held, and main- tained that the defendant was not rhargable with hrlbcry under chapter 72 of the Penal Code, under which' he was. Indicted, as that uhacter referred only to State officers, but Judge Martlne denied tils motion. lawyer Levy then sold that he had not de- cided whether to go on with the defence or not. He did not consider that the prosecution had made out a case, he said, but would like an hour to think It over. Judge Martlne allowed him forty minutes, at the conclusion of nhlch time Mr. Levy nnnounced that ln fairness to his client he had concluded to put his witnesses on the stand. Court was adjourned until 11 o clock this morning when the defence will open. LABOR IS TlUS STATU PJITSOXS. Gov. Haver Htops the 3f aklaK oT Brooms Kaeeat la Aeeordaaee nlth law, Aug. ?. Commissioner Thomas J. Dowling of the State Labor Bureau reported to Oov. Klower y that there were .4 convicts ln Auburn prison making brooms, an excess of 17. they being allowed by law to work only 37 prisoners in any one Industry. After a full hear- ing In the matter with the Superintendent of State Prisons and the Warden of Auburn prison. the Governor ordered Superintendent Lathmp to stop the making of brooms entirely In Auburn prison, for the reason that It conflicted with the broom manufacturers of this State, who are working free labor. The Governor says he Is determined that the penitentiaries of this State shall not work their convicts In the manufac- ture of brooms eicept In accordance with law; that is, that only Ave per cent, of them can be employed In any one Industry, and hels Informed that the Onondaga county penitentiary is work- ing 87 men In that Industry, while according to law It Is entitled to work only .17. Superintendent Lathrop also ordered an In- vestigation of the charges aKoJpjst Mr. Mills of Auburn prison, who Is charged with selling prison goods of other Slates In this State. He also ordered an Investigation into the charges that plumbing and hardware goods are now being made ln the prison of the State by more than five per cent, of convicts allowed Dy law. Superintendent Lathrop Informed the Gov- ernor that whenever)- - small amount of material on hand was worked up. the horse-coll- indus- try nt Auburn prUon would be discontinued. The granite Industry at Sing Sing prison was discussed, and Superintendent Lathropinformed the Governor that he had given Instructions to Warden Durston to stop the cutting of granite except that to be used In new buildings to bo located at the prison. Experiment, made at Dannemora last year and this, and the experiments now being made at Auburn prlsou. lmve convinced the Governor, he says, that the Legislature should provide for working all the prisoners on the public high- ways outside corporate villages ana cities. In this way the prisoners of the State will not be used In competition with free labor. PICK En VP TWO OAJIS3TEX. The Uoiamnlh Kound Tkeaa Cllaglac to Tkelr let Mfcell la Ike liny. Two oarsmen clinging to an upturned shell in the bay, about a mile off Day Iltdge, at o'clock yesterday afternoon, were sighted by Capt. Martin of the steamboat Monmouth corn-lu- g up from Sandy Hook. The men were call, tug for help, and one seemed to be exhausted. He was held up by his comrade. The iwusm-ii- . gerson the Monmouth also caught sight of the meu. Grant and F. D. Olcott were among them. Capt. Martin rang to crowd on full speed, and In a few moments the steamboat was within hailing distance of the men and a lifeboat was lowered. It was manned by and four of the crew. The passen- gers crowded forward on thedt-c- and shouted encouragement to the oarsmen. When the life-bo- reached the men the weaker of the two was In fainting condition, and his companion was weary with supporting him. They were lifted Into the lifeboat saiely. to the great relief of the Monmouth's passengers. When the lifeboat returned to the steamboat one of the men had become unconscious, but he was ret Ived with stimulants In a few minutes. The lifeboat crew als) saved an oilskin hag containing clothing and other articles to the oarmen. The shell was picked up by the I'nlted Slates revenue cutter Manhattan, which Is doing anchorage duty, and towed to staten Island. The oarsmen were In rowing costume, and had the Initial " N." on their shirts. They Mild that they were members of the Nautilus Host Club, and that they hsd started front Hay Itldge to row to Stalen Island, They did not give their name. When the Monmouth reached her pier at the foot of Hector street the two hurried away In a coach. A purse of $16 uss subscribed by the passengers for the crew of the lifeboat. MORITZ HAVKU IHSCHAHaJSD, Oov, flower Refuse to Eatrafllte lllas oa the Oronad Ikat tke rapcr An IlleKal. Albakv, Aug. here was a hearing before Goy. Flower this morning on the application of the Governor of Illinois for the surrender of Moritz Rauer. It Is alleged that, when In Peoria two years ago, Hauer, on representing that he had some $u'3.000 on deposit In a bauk in New York city succeeded In having a man named Stlveratein endorse a check on the New York bank for $3.700, which was afterward found to be worthless. Bauer was indicted at the time, but was not arrested until a few days ago. Louis Marshall and Alfred Tajlor of New-Yor- city appeared for Hauer at the hearing to- day. They said that Bauer for the past tvto ! years has been engaged In the real esute bu. lies in New York city, and that he should have been apprehended before If at all. They also aaserted that the warrant Lsued two years ago was worthless now, as it should have been exe- cuted within thirty days of the date of issuance, Mr, Battle of the New York District Attor. ney's offlce. representing the State of Illinois, contended that Bauer's whereabouts had only become known to the Ullnols authorities a few i days ago, and that the warrant could be cxe. cuted after the expiration, of the thirty days. A recess of an hour was taken to allow of the looking up of authorities regarding the legality of the warrant. After the recess It was stated that Sllversteln had been In correspondence with Bauer's law. vers In an endeavor to settle the question. Gov. Flower then said that, in view of this, and on account of the fact that (hs warrant had not been executed within the thirty days, it waa Illegal, and Bauer was discharged.

'J.-- Inquest Into the cause of the death of the unknown young bicyclist whoso body was found nnder a straw stack nearherca few days ago, was held at Birmingham's Valley Falls llttel Tuesday night by Coroner Murphy and a Jury of nine men. The Interest In this mysterious murder amounts to excitement as groat as was caused two years ago, when the dead body of Moggie Harrtgan was found In a pool of water )iar Middle Fall, and not far from this n1nt. There was still an other mysterious case of murder developed here alsmt one year ago. Late last November the dead and Imdly decomposed bodynf a well dressed man was found hanging by the neck from a limb of a tree in a piece nf woods less than a mile away, and In such condition as to preclude all possibility of It being a case of sui- cide. No clue was ever found to Ihe Identity of the man. nor was any trace' ever obtained of the murderer. Maggie Harrlgah was killed by a blow on the head and then placed In the shallow pool of water to make It appear Hint she had committed suicide.. And now the find- ing of the body of this murdered unknown mar under a stack of straw, being' the third case of murder In so short a time, has aroused the whole population to a determination to, If possible, find the guilty parties. Valley Falls is a very pretty village of 1,300 Inhabitants, situated on tne Hoosac River, ln , ' Rensselaer county, twelve rotles north of Troy. In lb! Immediate vicinity are the villages of I Schaghttcoke, Eastnn, Rcadle Hill, and John- - I sonvllje. One branch of the FItchburg linllroad connects It with Troy, and another branch with Mechanlcvllle and Saratoga. The Hoosac fur nishes good power, and there are knitting mills and mills for the manufacture of mosquito net ting, giving employment In all to about four hundred people, mostly boys and girls. The Baptists. Catholics, ami Methodists have un usually fine church edifices. There Is a fine, large graded school building. The streets are broad and densely shaded, and the houses, nearly all handsome cottages, neatly kept, Indlcato proa-ocrlt- y and a high degreu of social and domestic llfei and It Is a peaceable and moral commu- nity. Its residents do not think It possible that such high crimes are committed In Its borders or by any of its Inhabitants, but rather that the crimes are committed In Troy or other near-b-y places, or on the hlghwafs. and the victims brought to this neighborhood for concealment. Neither of the victims of these murders was ever known to have lived here or to have been seen ln this .lcinlty. At the Inquest the finding of the dead body of the last murdered unknown man was graphically told by the Fort boys. John and Lewis, and by their father. It was In the rye field on their fnrm that the body was found. They began to cradle their rye on July 10. In about three days It was all cut, bundled, and set up In shocks of ten bundles each, as Is the custom of the farm- ers. About three days after this they and others became aware of very disagreeable odors from a field on the northwest corner of four turners made there by the cross- ing of tivi) highways at right angles. On the morning of July 20 the Fort boys were loading op and hauling In straw. Whon they came to this particular stock and haddetached a few bundles Irom It. they discovered, to their horror, the dead hodr of a man. He was lying on his bock, head to tho west, his legs bent back under him. his arms crossed on his breast, and tied so by his shirt, which hod been split In the back for such purpose, and the ends brought up over his shoulders. Lying across his folded arms were his vest and coat, and between the arms and breast was the cap. Leaving the ""dy, they found It. they came here anil the facts to Coroner Murphy at Hooslck Falls, whocamc and had thebody taken there. At the Inquest the Coroner said he found the ! body to he very decently clad ln a full suit of lepiwr-andsa- lt cheviot cloth. The shirt next his body was of fine black saline, and over this ' was a tilre brown and white striped outing shirt, with lolt, hut no suspenders. Tied about the neck and under the brood collar of the out-ln- g shirt was a loose necktie. His cap was a navy blue outing cap. such oa.are commonly , worn by bicyclists. The storkmgs were Unlit brown, and In good condition, and on his feet was a pair of light colored, high laced gaiters, reaching some distance above the ankle They seemed nearly new, showing very little wear, especially on their soles. AH that was found on the body was a buttonhook, four fine linen handkerchiefs-o- ne unopened. Just as It had come from the laundry-n- nd several cigar- - ' ettetardj. About the neck of the body was a nice black silk cord, and attached to It a scop-ula- r. which, having lieen blenmd by the Bishop, Is supposed to put the wesrer under the pro- tection of the Virgin, Mary. Irs. Nel-li- s. Hannon. and Haines described the body: five feet 8 Inches long, well fed. inuscular. good conditioned, unusually good teeth, reddish hair on the head, no hair on foce. 25 to 2H tears old.

The liability of restaurant keepers for the loss of lists snd coats hung on pegs provided for thilr customers has been determined by the General Term of the Court of Common Pleas, affirming' Justice Ljnn of the First District Court, In an action brought by William P. Butt-ma- n against Alfred W. Dennett. i About tl o'clock on the evening of April 10 last, Ruttman went Into Dennett's restaurant at j 23 Park row, and after hanging his hat and ! overcoat on a jieg behind hlra. sat down to tfcratnbled eggs and coffee.

He brought suit In the First District Court for SIS for the coat ond $:i for the hat and got Judgment for J1U..M). Including costs. Dennett shotted that ou all his bills of fare he hail the I fojlowing notice printed on the face In large let- ters: " Not responsible for umbrellas, hats and coats ' left or exchanged." Mr. Dennett contended as a matter of law that n re, tan rant keeper Is not liable unless the nrtlrles of apiutrel are given directly Into his charge.

The Court refers to a case In which a lathing master was held liable for theft from a bath, house, and to another In which a dry goods firm was held liable where a cloak was stolen, which a customer had thrown off while trying on another cloak with the Idea of purchase.

Cokwav, Mass., Aug. 2. The arrest of tf r. Susan J. Taylor at Walpole, charged with at- tempted Incendiarism, has canscd an Investiga- tion of 'the record of the fimlly. Mrs. Taylor's name was McDowell before marriage, and the Insurance companies say that there have been ho less than twenty-sl- x fires In property owned by the family within a few years. A little more than a year ago George and llrlce McDowell, brothers of Mrs. Taylor, came here and bought a grist milt. Some time after a barn they nwned burned, and $880 In- surance was paid, The fire, the McDowells say, was caued by the carelessness of an em- ployee, ln January last the grist mill waa de stroyed by fire with Its contents. The building was Insured for 31, .101) and the stock for S.'.SOO. George McDowell admits that this fire was of Incendiary origin, hut declares he has no Idea who set It.

Griggs, a sister of Mrs, Taylor, lived here until recently In a house owned by Tucker A Cook. The building with contents was destroyed by fire. In March.

State Fire Marshal Whltcomb says that the authorities have learned many other facts conremlng the dealings of the McDowell family with Insurance companies which cannot be made public )ct. In an Interview he said! " To go Into details might and probably would disclose a scheme that I believe extends over a number of States. We mnst tie tip all the loose ends, and this I believe, will le accomplished In two or three da s.

Hangman Van Hlsc of Newark, who has hanged nearly nil the murderers who have been In New Jersey In the lost twenty ears, took a look yesterday at Bernhard Altcnbcrger, Katie Rupp's murderer. In the county JaIMn Jersey City. Van lllso Is very methodical In his profession. He always likes " to site up his ' client," as he terms It, ln order to get some Idea of the weight which will be required for the gal ' Ions. The hangman has a bill prepared for pre- - sentntlon to the next Legislature, making him the official executioner for the State, and he called on Sheriff Toffcy yesterdny to ask his assistance In having it passed. He made that his excuse for calling on the Sheriff, expecting to be engaged to hang Altenberger. He was not positively engaged, however, as Hangman Isaacs, from this rltv, has been to see the Sheriff ' and Is negotiating for the Job. Isaacs hanged Kanknwskl, the murderer of Mlna Muller. That ; murder was very much like the crime for which Altenberger is to die. . After leaving the Sheriff's offlce. an Hlse went over to tho Jail and was admitted to the corridor In which Altenberger and Hull, the ! wife murderer from Kearney, are confined. The t i Rev. Mr. Mewry was with Altenberger. HulL who knows Van Hlse. saw him as he walked down the corridor. Bull occupies n cell directly i opposite Altenberger's. In attempting suicide i after killing his wife he cut his vocal chords and Is unsble to speak nbove a hoarse whisper. As soon as he saw Von Hlse he called to Alten- berger as loudly as he could and attracted his attention. Vau HImj was walking along the cor- ridor with assumed Indifference. ' As he parsed Bull pointed to hlra. clasped his hands around his own throat, and emitted a gurgling sound. The pantomime wns so real that Altentierger understood it at once. He a little excited, anil Van Hlse hurried away. He had seen enough, however, to enable him to fix upon the required welitht to swing Altenberger off provided he gels the Job. an Rise's record Is thirty-eigh- t executions.

The declaration of Charles A, iKiebbeler, the convicted Anarchist, In llm Passaic County Court of Quarter Sessions tealrnlay that Max OhUnschtaeger was mur- dered, and not killed on the Krie Railroad ad was supposed, was y reiterated byOhlen-schlager- 'a friends. He told Jacob Wetdmann thai there waa a plot tn toko his Ilfeanddestroy ilpmHirlyi that he, Ohlenschlaeger, waa on nf thu men selected to tin tho work, and that ha feared he would he killed for revealing the plot, It Is said that notwithstanding this fear Ohlen achlaeger told August Milter In it fifth avenue, saloon that hi had told We Id man the plot, and was going away. Charles A. Doebbeter td yr-rd- y "Miller waa Ihe lost man seen In OhIe-- i achlaeger' company. Ho slept with Ohtrn achlaeger tin the night before. Ohlenschlaeger was murdered. They parted In a saloon at the) corner of Fifth avenue and River street. Ohlrn-schlacg- er said he was going away and never expected to return. He may have told Milter where ha waa golnr. "Miller has been perjuring himself at these trials against me and the others who have ben convicted. I have placed Information In tha hands of Iroaecntor Oourl'y which t think ha will use. but regarding that I don't think It would lie. wise to publish anything Just now." Carl Htarke. another Anarchist, convicted of conspiracy and rioting, who Is also awaiting sen- tence. Joined In the conversation. He said! " I'll tell you who murdered Max Ohlenschlaeger. It was August Miller, the man who led the rioters on March 12 during the dyers' strike. Miller Is the man who placed the bomb on Htrange'a lawn. Ho has repeatedly confessed that he knew all about making bombs, and wanted to teach mc, but I told him I didn't fight with bombs, He got un all Into trouble, and now gets out ot It himself by turning Informer." Doehbeler said lie learned of Ohlensctilaeger'a deatli through Robert SeldeL who waa about to leave the city to go to Allendale, on the Erie, where the body waa found. Doebbeler met Seldel and asked him where he was going In such haste. "To find Ohlenschlaeger: he has been murdered," Seldel answered, Doebbeler further said that, when Miller learned, or was told nf the murder, he remarked! "Had I known he was going to die I would have had him Insured." Doehbeler says he and his friends made an In- vestigation of Ohlensohlaeger'a death. They did not succeed ln fastening tbe crime on any one. There were finger marks on Ohlenschla,e- - throat, and a clean deep cut ln the head Scr's linked as if It might have been inflicted with a cleaver. Ohlenschlaeger wraa a powerful man about thirty years old. He was educated, ond was an expert chemist. Ho came here from Chicago a week after the beginning of the big strlkeof the silk dyers and went to board with Herman Wolken, an old friend. He had, for- merly lived here. Ho married a daughter of William Braer, a hotel proprietor, but was di- vorced from her after a few years.

The West Hobonea rolleo sta Good ass that Couaellmea, Hays hlr. Holxoas. The West Hoboken Common Council, at a ses-- slon which lasted until nearly 1 o'clock yester- day morning, decided to reject a proposition, which had been made at the previous meeting, to disband the police force. At the previous meeting the Police Committee, of which Conn-cllrn- Solyom is Chairman, submitted a report recommending that several policemen bo fined, and Policemen Noe nnd Vermolen be requested to resign. After some discussion, a motion was made that the force be disbanded, and Mr. Solyom. who Is also Chief of Police, seconded the motion. It was nearly midnight an Wednesday when Councilman eol)-o- called the matter up. He read an explanation, ln which he said that when he seconded the motion to disband the force he did It on the spur of the moment. He liad changed his opinion, and wu not only op- posed to disbanding the force, but favored re- mitting the penalties recommended by his com- mittee. "Some of the chargea made by the press ngnlnst the police are founded in faot," said air. Solyom: "but are there not others responsible ? How can discipline be expected if members of this council, to ((ratify their spite, incite the police to Insubordination r How can- - the police suppress violators of the Kxctse law when mem- bers of this Board, sworn to uphold the law. are foremost In breaking It T Must the,. pollen alone answer charges of corruption, when it Is no- torious that they were commanded by members of the late Hoard tn levy blackmail and accept britiea, and when coiincilmen divided with them the Illegitimate proceeds" Nobody answered Chief Solyom's questions, aud the motion tn disband tbe force was re- jected. The other motion, to fine the delinquent policemen, was adopted. Policemen Noe and Vermolen were asked tn resign before Wednes- day. The statements made by Councilman riol-t- o in have created a sensation in the town, and lie will probably be requested to explain. Some of the leading citizens suggest that It Mr. Sol- yom can substantiate his allegations, the facta ought to be laid before the Grand Jury. sgu,000 Heady Tor McK'nae'u Prosecntora.

" Our place is a family resort. Nothing wrongever went on there. The performers do notcome out at all. They havna rtxrm of their own.where they receive their friends, but never Inanything but street eostnnif.''

The next witness was Han Koppe, the Janitorof the double-diiCk- tenement lirni-- y at IMChryalle street, whlrh adjoin. Kuenstler Halle.Koppe testified to the respectability of the m.rert hall, and said he frequently took his wifethere In the evening.

Miss t.'ecllla Krumm. the daughter of the com-plainant, about IT yearsof age. was much fright-ened when put on the witness stand. Hhe knewlvy.she said, but hail neve'. l"ken to him.Hhe had seen htm In the dining room of herhome talking with her father, bntdld not knowwhat they had said, as she was almost Imme-diately ordered to leave the room ly her father,Tills was In March, she saM. Miss hrumm(minted to the defendant, and when he rose shesaid she thought that was the man.

"Ilut are you sure of Itr WWY you swear toIt " asked Lawyer I,evy.

" He looks very much like the. man I saw,"she said, " but I cannot swear to It."

Wilhelm Uonalm, an extra wnlter around theconcert hall, was called. Honalm testified tohaving seen Levy In the concert hall on March1. Levy and another man were there together,and they all went Up to the room of: the gallery.A llttla-whll- afterward Mr. Krumm called fora Isittle of Moselle wine and three cigars. A fewminutes later, Honalm said, he stood by the halldoor, which was partly closed, and heard Ievyand Mr. Krumm talking. He heart Levy say!" It's all right now. Oo right on and play." Thenext week the place opened, and It remainedopen until May 1.

Charles Schwenitkc. the "outside man." as hewas known In Chrystle street, was next called.

"You are what Is commonly known as abouncer, are you notr" asked Mr. Osborne."No." replied the witness, fiercely, "I am a

Schwencke'sald that on the night of March 8,the first night a concert was held without a li-

cense. Levy came to him and told him that hemust look sharp and be very careful whom helet Into the place. " ' He very careful,' he said,and don't let any one In unless you know him,' "

said Schwcncke.On the wttncia said that

he had been nicknamed Krenchy for years, but j

he hsd no Idea why he was so called. lawyerLevy questioned him about the ctwtumes wornIn tne place, and pressed him so closely thatJudge Martlue Interrupted, and ssld:

"Oh. what does It matter The testimonyshows that nothing worse than short skirts were '

won. Why, In some places ln this city, at theroof gardens, for Instance, some of the perform- -

ers wear almost nothing nowadays. 'Lawyer Levy let the subject of lostnmes alone

after this, and began to question the witnessabout the electric bell. He asked SchwcnckeIf It was not true that the bell was there to warnthose Inside when the police came.

" No, of course not." said the witness fiercely."We did not need to warn anybody of the ap-proach of the police, because we were runningall the time under police protection."

With the testimony of Hchwencke the prtwe- -rutlon rested. Lawyer Levy moved for the ills- - .

missal of the defendant. He read seventeenreasons why Levy should not be held, and main-tained that the defendant was not rhargablewith hrlbcry under chapter 72 of the PenalCode, under which' he was. Indicted, as thatuhacter referred only to State officers, butJudge Martlne denied tils motion.

lawyer Levy then sold that he had not de-

cided whether to go on with the defence or not.He did not consider that the prosecution hadmade out a case, he said, but would like an hourto think It over. Judge Martlne allowed himforty minutes, at the conclusion of nhlch timeMr. Levy nnnounced that ln fairness to hisclient he had concluded to put his witnesses onthe stand. Court was adjourned until 11 o clockthis morning when the defence will open.

V.tt.l.EV FAt.tJ. K. Y Aug'. 'J.-- InquestInto the cause of the death of the unknownyoung bicyclist whoso body was found nnder astraw stack nearherca few days ago, was held atBirmingham's Valley Falls llttel Tuesday nightby Coroner Murphy and a Jury of nine men.The Interest In this mysterious murder amountsto excitement as groat as was caused two yearsago, when the dead body of Moggie Harrtganwas found In a pool of water )iar Middle Fall,and not far from this n1nt. There was still another mysterious case of murder developedhere alsmt one year ago. Late last Novemberthe dead and Imdly decomposed bodynf a welldressed man was found hanging by the neckfrom a limb of a tree in a piece nf woods lessthan a mile away, and In such condition as topreclude all possibility of It being a case of sui-cide. No clue was ever found to Ihe Identity ofthe man. nor was any trace' ever obtained of themurderer. Maggie Harrlgah was killed bya blow on the head and then placed In theshallow pool of water to make It appear Hintshe had committed suicide.. And now the find-ing of the body of this murdered unknown marunder a stack of straw, being' the third case ofmurder In so short a time, has aroused the wholepopulation to a determination to, If possible,find the guilty parties.

Valley Falls is a very pretty village of 1,300Inhabitants, situated on tne Hoosac River, ln ,

'Rensselaer county, twelve rotles north of Troy.In lb! Immediate vicinity are the villages of I

Schaghttcoke, Eastnn, Rcadle Hill, and John- - I

sonvllje. One branch of the FItchburg linllroadconnects It with Troy, and another branch withMechanlcvllle and Saratoga. The Hoosac furnishes good power, and there are knitting millsand mills for the manufacture of mosquito netting, giving employment In all to about fourhundred people, mostly boys and girls. TheBaptists. Catholics, ami Methodists have unusually fine church edifices. There Is a fine, largegraded school building. The streets are broadand densely shaded, and the houses, nearly allhandsome cottages, neatly kept, Indlcato proa-ocrlt- y

and a high degreu of social and domesticllfei and It Is a peaceable and moral commu-nity. Its residents do not think It possible thatsuch high crimes are committed In Its bordersor by any of its Inhabitants, but rather that thecrimes are committed In Troy or other near-b-y

places, or on the hlghwafs. and the victimsbrought to this neighborhood for concealment.Neither of the victims of these murders wasever known to have lived here or to have beenseen ln this .lcinlty.

At the Inquest the finding of the dead body ofthe last murdered unknown man was graphicallytold by the Fort boys. John and Lewis, and bytheir father. It was In the rye field on theirfnrm that the body was found. They began tocradle their rye on July 10. In about three daysIt was all cut, bundled, and set up In shocks often bundles each, as Is the custom of the farm-ers. About three days after this they and othersbecame aware of very disagreeable odors froma field on the northwest corner offour turners made there by the cross-ing of tivi) highways at right angles.On the morning of July 20 the Fort boys wereloading op and hauling In straw. Whon theycame to this particular stock and haddetached afew bundles Irom It. they discovered, to theirhorror, the dead hodr of a man. He was lyingon his bock, head to tho west, his legs bent backunder him. his arms crossed on his breast, andtied so by his shirt, which hod been split In theback for such purpose, and the ends brought upover his shoulders. Lying across his foldedarms were his vest and coat, and betweenthe arms and breast was the cap. Leaving the""dy, they found It. they came here anilthe facts to Coroner Murphy at HooslckFalls, whocamc and had thebody taken there.At the Inquest the Coroner said he found the !

body to he very decently clad ln a full suit oflepiwr-andsa- lt cheviot cloth. The shirt nexthis body was of fine black saline, and over this 'was a tilre brown and white striped outingshirt, with lolt, hut no suspenders. Tied aboutthe neck and under the brood collar of the out-ln- g

shirt was a loose necktie. His cap was anavy blue outing cap. such oa.are commonly ,worn by bicyclists. The storkmgs were Unlitbrown, and In good condition, and on his feetwas a pair of light colored, high lacedgaiters, reaching some distance above the ankleThey seemed nearly new, showing very littlewear, especially on their soles. AH that wasfound on the body was a buttonhook, four finelinen handkerchiefs-o- ne unopened. Just as Ithad come from the laundry-n-nd several cigar- - '

ettetardj. About the neck of the body was anice black silk cord, and attached to It a scop-ula- r.

which, having lieen blenmd by the Bishop,Is supposed to put the wesrer under the pro-tection of the Virgin, Mary. Irs. Nel-li- s.

Hannon. and Haines described thebody: five feet 8 Inches long, well fed.inuscular. good conditioned, unusually goodteeth, reddish hair on the head, no hair on foce.25 to 2H tears old. The skull, which was un- - 'commonly thin, was crushed ln from the lefttemple to the occiput. It was done by a bluntinstrument .and evidently by an upward blow.Timothy Carpenter, whose farmhouse Is alxmttwelve rods from the spot where the body wasfound, told how that late in the night of July 1:1he and hla wife were arpuwd by the furiousbarklngof their dog. but did not get up to Inves-tlgat- e

on the road leading westward to Schaghtlcoke. 'Several other persons were examined, tmt

none of them had any knowledge of the deadman nor could throw any light on the tragedy,The Inquest was adjourned for two weeks, andmeantime the case will be taken In hand by theDistrict Attorney of Rensselaer county.

' client," as he terms It, ln order to get some Ideaof the weight which will be required for the gal '

Ions. The hangman has a bill prepared for pre- -sentntlon to the next Legislature, makinghim the official executioner for the State, andhe called on Sheriff Toffcy yesterdny to ask hisassistance In having it passed. He made thathis excuse for calling on the Sheriff, expectingto be engaged to hang Altenberger. He was notpositively engaged, however, as HangmanIsaacs, from this rltv, has been to see the Sheriff 'and Is negotiating for the Job. Isaacs hangedKanknwskl, the murderer of Mlna Muller. That ;

murder was very much like the crime for whichAltenberger is to die. .

After leaving the Sheriff's offlce. an Hlsewent over to tho Jail and was admitted to thecorridor In which Altenberger and Hull, the !

wife murderer from Kearney, are confined. The ti

Rev. Mr. Mewry was with Altenberger. HulLwho knows Van Hlse. saw him as he walkeddown the corridor. Bull occupies n cell directly i

opposite Altenberger's. In attempting suicide i

after killing his wife he cut his vocal chordsand Is unsble to speak nbove a hoarse whisper.As soon as he saw Von Hlse he called to Alten-berger as loudly as he could and attracted hisattention. Vau HImj was walking along the cor-ridor with assumed Indifference.' As he parsed Bull pointed to hlra. clasped hishands around his own throat, and emitted agurgling sound. The pantomime wns so realthat Altentierger understood it at once. He

a little excited, anil Van Hlse hurriedaway. He had seen enough, however, to enablehim to fix upon the required welitht to swingAltenberger off provided he gels the Job. anRise's record Is thirty-eigh- t executions.

He said moving her might result In her death.Blumberg had always iald his rent promptlyaud offered the rent for the month of August toWelle. Welle refused to take It and began dis-possess proceedings against Blumberg in theSecond District Civil Court.

On Wednesday afternoon Constable Lanbyand two assistants went to the Blurabergs flatto dispossess them. Mrs. Blumberg waa ln bedand Dr. William Schlrmer wns attending her.It Is alleged that the constable opened thekitchen door In a noisy manner and ordered hisassistants to takeout the things. Dr. Schlrmerexpostulated with Lnuhy, but the constable paidno attention to the Doctor. Mrs. Blumberg. whohad heard the loud talking of the constable,and saw the assistants carrying out her things,went Into convulsions.

Dr. Schlrmer sent Blumberg to Civil JusticePetterson's house with a note stating that Mrs.Blumberg was In no condition to be moved.The Justice. It Is alleged.

nf thu men selected to tin tho work, and that hafeared he would he killed for revealing the plot,It Is said that notwithstanding this fear Ohlenachlaeger told August Milter In it fifth avenue,saloon that hi had told We Id man the plot, andwas going away.

Charles A. Doebbeter td yr-rd- y

"Miller waa Ihe lost man seen In OhIe-- iachlaeger' company. Ho slept with Ohtrnachlaeger tin the night before. Ohlenschlaegerwas murdered. They parted In a saloon at the)corner of Fifth avenue and River street. Ohlrn-schlacg- er

said he was going away and neverexpected to return. He may have told Milterwhere ha waa golnr.

"Miller has been perjuring himself at thesetrials against me and the others who have benconvicted. I have placed Information In thahands of Iroaecntor Oourl'y which t think hawill use. but regarding that I don't think Itwould lie. wise to publish anything Just now."

Carl Htarke. another Anarchist, convicted ofconspiracy and rioting, who Is also awaiting sen-

Miller Isthe man who placed the bomb on Htrange'alawn. Ho has repeatedly confessed that he knewall about making bombs, and wanted to teachmc, but I told him I didn't fight with bombs,He got un all Into trouble, and now gets out otIt himself by turning Informer."

Doehbeler said lie learned of Ohlensctilaeger'adeatli through Robert SeldeL who waa about toleave the city to go to Allendale, on the Erie,where the body waa found. Doebbeler metSeldel and asked him where he was going Insuch haste. "To find Ohlenschlaeger: he hasbeen murdered," Seldel answered, Doebbelerfurther said that, when Miller learned, or wastold nf the murder, he remarked! "Had Iknown he was going to die I would have hadhim Insured."

Doehbeler says he and his friends made an In-vestigation of Ohlensohlaeger'a death. Theydid not succeed ln fastening tbe crime on anyone. There were finger marks on Ohlenschla,e- -

throat, and a clean deep cut ln the headScr'slinked as if It might have been inflictedwith a cleaver. Ohlenschlaeger wraa a powerfulman about thirty years old. He was educated,ond was an expert chemist. Ho came here fromChicago a week after the beginning of the bigstrlkeof the silk dyers and went to board withHerman Wolken, an old friend.

August Miller said In regard to thaaccusation of Doebbeler and.Stark: "Jhere waano better friend In the world than t was toOhlenschlaeger. I left him at Xatinnal Hallthe night he was killed, and learned afterwardthat he was seen tn Wllkesmaq's saloon In Weststreet. In company with a smooth-face- d

stranger. I went to Allendale after bis body,and saw that he had a decent barisl.

" I f Doebbeler and StarK had such' a. charge tomake against me. why did tlieytralt until thelast moment before accusing me 7 I never heardof such an infamous thing. They, are angry be-cause I told the truth about them at the trtaLI ahull see the prosecutor about this sjlalr to-morrow." .,

XOT TO UK DISItAXDXn.

The West Hobonea rolleo sta Good ass thatCouaellmea, Hays hlr. Holxoas.

The West Hoboken Common Council, at a ses--slon which lasted until nearly 1 o'clock yester-day morning, decided to reject a proposition,which had been made at the previous meeting,to disband the police force. At the previousmeeting the Police Committee, of which Conn-cllrn-

Solyom is Chairman, submitted a reportrecommending that several policemen bo fined,and Policemen Noe nnd Vermolen be requestedto resign. After some discussion, a motion wasmade that the force be disbanded, and Mr.Solyom. who Is also Chief of Police, secondedthe motion.

It was nearly midnight an Wednesday whenCouncilman eol)-o- called the matter up.He read an explanation, ln which he said thatwhen he seconded the motion to disband theforce he did It on the spur of the moment. Heliad changed his opinion, and wu not only op-posed to disbanding the force, but favored re-mitting the penalties recommended by his com-mittee.

"Some of the chargea made by the pressngnlnst the police are founded in faot," said air.Solyom: "but are there not others responsible ?How can discipline be expected if members ofthis council, to ((ratify their spite, incite thepolice to Insubordination r How can- - the policesuppress violators of the Kxctse law when mem-bers of this Board, sworn to uphold the law. areforemost In breaking It T Must the,. pollen aloneanswer charges of corruption, when it Is no-torious that they were commanded by membersof the late Hoard tn levy blackmail and acceptbritiea, and when coiincilmen divided with themthe Illegitimate proceeds"

Nobody answered Chief Solyom's questions,aud the motion tn disband tbe force was re-jected. The other motion, to fine the delinquentpolicemen, was adopted. Policemen Noe andVermolen were asked tn resign before Wednes-day. The statements made by Councilman riol-t- o

in have created a sensation in the town, andlie will probably be requested to explain. Someof the leading citizens suggest that It Mr. Sol-yom can substantiate his allegations, the factaought to be laid before the Grand Jury.
