DAD CAE OF WIFE-DEATING. A Taroone reportor yesterday learned the par- ticulara of one of tho most brutal cases of wifo- boatipg which has occurred in _the city for some time. ~ The perpetratoris a fellow namea P'eck- lor, who with his wife and family occupy tbo upper Ym of a frame house on Ewlng street, near Bluo Island avenue. Mo isa barbar by trade, buv bis habits sre so bad and his temper 80 violent that no ono will omploy him. Hodoes nothing but loaf all day and prowl abont st night, ~ His moansof support are a mystory to tho neighbors, who shun him as much for tho ill-treatment of bis wifo—s quifet, inoffonnive woman—as for his hang-dogboaring, On I'ri- day last Lis wifo was delivered of a maie cbild bearing frightful bruises all over its body, These ovidonces of pronatal violonce led to n rigorous questionlni of the mother by thoso who assistod at tho accouchment. After o great deal of eva- sion, sho stated that somotime provious her hus~ band had boaten hor 80 badly that sho foarod he hiad killod tho child, This 1ovelation created a groat stiv in tho neighborbood, and it was only out of considoration for the poor woman, wbo wnR lying in s critical condition, that tho Lhusband escaped sammary punishituont. Saturday night, tho woman appeared in n sink< ing stato, and, thinking that she was about to die, roquested that a priost bo sont for. I'scklor was told of her condition ; bat, instead of it in« suring humane treatmont on bis part, he raved about like & madman, threatoning to kill any one who came ucar, A pricst attended tho house in responsoe to the woman’s summons, but no sooner had ho mada his sppoarance thau Lockler turned fo vent hi rago on him, Bhouung that ke wanted no d—d arsons about iis wifo, o ordered tha priest to oave sbo houso or he would be kicked down stars, Beeing no hope of calming the biute, tha pricst was compolled to leave without ministering to the religious nesds of the poor woman. 'Fho belpless condition of hia wife now attracted I’ocklor, who commenced belaboring her with all bis stropgth, sbe not having the power (o avoid the blows ho showered upon her. Au eidorly lady living niear by waa drawn to tho housa by tho nuiso, aud, rushing up etalrs, triel to provail upon tho follow to atop hir abuse, Iio roplied with an oath and do- clared that he would finish the —.
