Tho opinion that tho overzentous police have bungled the Bobnow murder cnae 80 that it will be tinposstblo to convict any one of tha murder, is quite goneril, It is the {ntention to have Wilium, altas “Rednos" Barns, allas William Graves, tho Vonitentiary convict, indicted at tho noxt term of the Grand Jury, and have him brought here at once fur tho trial. Henly tho only evidonce against him is that furntahadt by the pleco of serip which he pald Mr. Yoro the Becond day after tho murder. Burns, when Questioned fn prison, snid tho scrip was given him nt tho corner of Twelfth and Chirk streets, or by some ono nenr tho Jesuit Church, At bls trint he may swear that it was’ glyen to him by some ono now dend,and who can prove tho contrary? Young Rackow's partint idontifoation of Burns atthe Ponitentiry is In Burns’ favor. Burns ‘and he were well aequninted, and hind traded to- cthor, Rackow was fa the stare with the rote pera and the tnurder, and yet fal to identify ony ofthom, If Burns was thore, why did nat Nuckow tell the police? ‘Tals is oxpinined pur. Hally by tho fact that the murderer had his face partially concested by. a handkere chicf. Rut, nevertheless, Rackaw attght to hive -been able to recognize him by his size and gone eral nppearance. Tho evidence of tho putoone keepor neross tho way, in whose pace the rote bers played pool Figen to their erime, would be Important, were Ht not for tlie fret that Hurns eatnat probably be identiticd positively ns being Present thore, : Hud tho polleo sent n sharp, shrewd man to he Penitentiary for a short torn, and had bin given a cell with Burns or adjolning his, ao that they would become chums, the complete secret night hive been worked outoft fim, or at loust something night have been accomplished in bending off anullbl, which he may resort to nt trial, This niuiner of pumping criminals in murder cuaes 18 not infrequent. and is vever Uunsuecessful whon worked with tho right man, With ao direct and postive tt pointer ns that. furntahed by the scrip, together with the knowl- edgu of the tlentity of twoof tho robbers, tho attempt could not havo falled to result tn Burns’ conviction had tha case boon worked in this way, Even tho palleo thomselyes are not ut all confident af conviction, but they loak forward to the future for additional revelations, TIE BOARDING-HOUSH BEAT.
