From the New York World, Nov. 19, " O'Neill, supported by his wife, walked, with little apparent dificulty at first, but with rapidly failing strength, down the remaining stairs and along the building until he could evidently go no further. His wife then tried the door of Alr. Quick’s office, and led him in, the door being shut in theface of the curions 'and rapidly in~ creasing crowd. O'Neill did not fall, but walked on feebly past the railing which divides the office, and at last sank into acheir, his wife bend- ing anxiously over him, and watching fearfully his fast-changing face. A surgeon was sent for et once, but be did not arrive, and some eight or ten persons (three po- licemenamong them) had obtained entrance to the room, when tho dying man spoke faintly : “King hes shot me; have him arrested.” Mrs. O'Netll then looked up, and said, in a clear, dis- tinct voice: *‘The man who shot my husband ig James C. King; he is up stairs; go up and arrest him.” "Officer John Gibney thereupon went off in gearch of King. Meanwhile the dying man was gasping for breath, a8 he sat crouched altogether in his chair, 'and it was deomed best to lay him upon’ the floor. This accordingly was done, and the change of position ~seemed to Eve him ease for a moment, but is - life was evidently ~fast oing. Btill.no surgeon came, and if is doubtful if one could have passed the crowd, which now was filling not only the entries and stairways, but was gurging on the sidewalks, and even densely crowding Pine street itself for full a block on either side. Draymen left their drays in the middle of the street and pushed into the throng. All business was suspended, and every -door poured its tribute of eager questioners into the impassable street as the slow minutes passed on. ; A man leaned over O'Neill and tried his pulse. “Heis fast going,” said he. Mrs. O'Neill looked up with an anguish-stricken face to ask if there was a prieat in the room. “ I am & priest,” said & man coming forward, and to whom the wife appealod : “He is not & Catholic, but I am, and he would have been in a few days. Will you not ‘baptize him ?” The pricst took the haud of the dying man, “If you wish-to be baptized into the faith of the Catholic Church press my hand.” A faint pressure was the reply, end then and there, in the presence of death, with water frem an office tumbler, was the eaving rite ad- ministered, and then in silence, for the man was almost gone, and his wife was bending over him to catch the last words ho waa too faint to utter, but which, stifled at hia lips, she was trying to read from his eyes, the litile group waited for the end. 1t was not long in_coming. No shudder or struggle, scarcely a sigh, only a sudden fixing of the opon eyes, and it waa over. It was ten min- ‘utes of 2, just twenty minutes since the fatal shot was fired. Mra. O'Neill, supported on either side by her counsel and a lady friend, spent & short moment in prayer, end then turning with wonderful calmness to those present, thanked them for their sympathy and care, and left the room. Visiting the Dead. From the New York Sun, Nov, 20, From Mr. Btolts the reporter learned that large numbers of Mr. O'Neill's friends and ac- quaintances called in the afternoon and evening to zee his remains. The most interesting group that visited the etore, Mr. Stolts eaid, was one which came in at 4 o'clock in the afternoon. It consisted of an old gentleman and two Indies, dressed in deep mourning and draped in heavy black veils. One of these, tho younger, was Mrs. O'Nedl. The other is Bupposed to have been Mrs. Anns King, the wife of the man who now liesin the Tombs for the shooting of O'Neill. The old gentleman was Mr. O'Neill's father, who arrived from Bos- ton yesterday. ‘When this” group entered, the old gentleman gave his name to the shopman in attendance, and ho and the ladies were shown into the room where the corpse lay. The lid of the box ond the linen and ies which covered the face ‘were slowly removed, the little group standing besido_tho corpse and showing their grief only by their ead countenances and the silent tears which flowed down their cheeks. But as the face ‘was exposed the old man lost his composure and oxclaimed fiercely, with his handa raiged: “God will avenge you, my sbn !” “What did the ladies do ?” asked the reporter of one of the lads Who was at work at the coffin, “They did nothing for a long time but cry and s0b, and wring their hands, and say ¢ Poor boy! Poor boy!" 'Then the tallest lady eaid, ¢ Why do you have him inice? I don’t want the poor boy in ice. See, his hair is wet!’ and then she’ ‘began crying again, and leaning over the body. After a while she cut off a lock of hair and handed it to the young lady, who pat it in an envelope. The old gentleman was crying too, ‘but he didn’t say much that I heard after he came in. Then he said something about God's avenging him. The younger lady didn’t say much of myth'mq. She was crying and sob- bing all tho time.” The Victim’s Story. From the New York Times, Nov. 20, y The testimony of Anthony ¥. O'Neill, given ‘bofore Judge Sutherland on Mondsy, and Which. being unfavorable to Mr. King, the defendantin the case, is thought to have been the cause of :he tragic occurrence, was substantially as fol- ows: Anthony F. O'Neill being sworn, statéd his name, -age, and occupation, and testified that Mr. King had introduced himself to witness in the office of the Erie Railroad Company, where he called to ask witness if he knew of any nice place in the country where he could take his wife and family to live; found a nice residence for Mr. King at Turner's Station, Orange, N. Y., and facilitated him in removing his effects there; became very intimate with Mr. King, and continued so until 1t ceme to his knowledge that King was in the habitof abusing his wife; he frequently called at Mr. King's house in the ‘morning, to ask himif he was coming up to the city; on several occasions King came out on the stoop and told him he would be ready mn a short time, and would then return into the honse; on those occasions he had heard King elap his wife on the cheels, and, to the best of his judgment, otherwise ill-use’ her, immediately “afterward coming out with a smile on_his face; on one occasion witness had seen King strike Mrs. King on the stoop of their own house; witness also testified that he had frequently heard Mr. King converse with lewd women on the irain, that he had on geveral oc- casions used profane 1mgnn§e to his wife in the ‘presence of his children, and was in the habit of going about the house without adjusting his arments in & becoming manner ; that Mr. King finfl repeatedly said he did not believe in the golemn obligation of an oath, did not believe in the existence of nor in a state of future re- ward or punishment ; witness had also heard Mr. King ey that he did not see the use of his children attending the Sabbath School, as he thought they would learn more of what was evil ihan what was good by going thers ; that he did not believe in people being too highly educated —in_fact that men and women would get on much better if there wasless education smu:g them. Witness also testified to ianer&l bi treatment received by Mrs, King at the hands of her husband. Mr. King’s Side of the Storys Trome the New York Sun, Nov. 20, Last night 8 Sun reporter called at the house of Mr. Welsh Edwards, No. 140 East Seventeenth street, at which place King has been ho:_ml\ni with his three children. . Edwards said: had o scquiinionce with either Mr. or Mra. King until 2 bout six weeks ago. At that time Mr. King called st my house, and, after narrat- ing to mo the circumatances which lod to the separation between himself and his wuefiilim en- aged board for himself and ihree children. %e ore the bargain was concluded, Mr. King made a special stipulation that his wife shonld have access to my house at any and all times to gee tho children. After the 'spsg of & week Mr. King came home one evenhg in a fearfal state of excitement. Howas wringing his hands and pacing the room. He wouldgtop and press both hands to his brow.

King repeated his remarks without eli¢ing an answer, whereupon he turned and walkd from the room, with his eyes filled with tears. After he left the room my wife said \ Mrs. King, ““Oh! how could yon find it in youfears to treat the poor man in that manner? Wy did you not spesk to him?” To this 3rs.

Theso| people are hounding me to death, and Y am nearly crazy.” Yesterdsy afternoon, about 3 o'clock, Mrs. King rushed into my house without ringing the bell. My wife was sitting in_the dining-room. Mra. Kin% was fearfully excited, and said to my wife, *“ Oh! Mrs. Edwards, that villain has killed poor, dear Mr. O'Neill.” ‘Who do you mean?" asked my wife. *Why, that vil- lain, King,” she answered. ‘What has become of Mr. King ?” my wife asked. ‘‘I don’t know, and I don't care; I would like to see the villain lyinghesd in the gutter,” she eaid, with terrible emyiams‘ R .

A Remarkable S1 ©rgical Case. 1In 1869, Luther Corey, in Senta Cruz County, Cal., had his srm broken in : two places above the elbow. One of the fractures knittedand healed; the other, owing to s _splint of the bone being between the ends of the frach we,did not. After suffering great pain, Mr. ( Jorey went to San Francisco, and the surgeons there opened the flosh on his arm, and cut the . *allons part from off the ends of the bones, p ©ssing the ends together and biuding' the arm in splints. So they remained for eightten moni bs, but still the bones did not knit, and the musc les of ihe arm became shrivelled up and usele: 5. Then Mr. Corey applied to Dr. Lane; of San Trancieco, who forthwith performed re surgical workmanship .conceivable. He. opened. the arm, sprung out the end of the bones, and, cutiing off the callous parts, he bev 2lled theends of the bones, 8o that each would lag » 3 1i ttle over the other. o then riveted them tc 1gether with o silver wire, and set the arm in a. case.
