Wrst Porxt, N. ¥., April 14.—A highly Important elew has been struck nt Inst, one which promises to throw more light on the real authors of the Whittnker outrage than all the testimony taken. It seems the Iittie YVilinge of Ighiand Falls, a mile and a half below here, {is 9 favorit resdrt of the wild sports of the Academy, both officers and cadets, Tho place contains adozen or more ilquor-snloons and'taverns, four-fifths of the revenue of which is derived from the Military Academy, Parties of cactets are In the habit of slipping out after “ taps’?

In Highland Falls there has never been o particle of doubt as to the real character of WHITTAKER’S ARSAILANTS, and tho wonder fs that the facts, the town talk there, have not long ago reached the enrs of the Court. That. it is known to the officers nt the Acndemy there is not the slightest doubt, On the night before tho outrage three cadets, whose names aro known, wore drinking and ecnrous- ing atter hours at the well-known resort at the Fails, As the lquor mounted to thelr heads they grew communicative, and ‘the conversation, which was among them- solves and confidential, was so loud that it was heard by the barkeeper and others. They talked about “fixing”: Whittaker, and dis- cussed tho proposed hnzing with the grentest zest, Afterspending several hours in the place the three cadets wentaway, taking the road to. tothe Point. Enrly next morning news of the outrago reached Highland Falls, and the proprietor of a saloon, told of it by the hack- mar, who had come that morning from the Point, blurted out in the hearing of two by- standers: “Why, there were three of tho boys down here Inst night, and they TALKED ABOUT FIRING WHITTAKER” The story spread tapldly, and was caught up and repented by others until tt reached the Point. The Court of Inquiry had not yet met, but tho saloonkeeper was at once eatled upon by officers and cadets, who told him to ‘keep his mouth shut, for God’s sake,” as it would get tho post Into trouble. Since then there is reason to he- Neve the saloonkeeper’s mouth has been closed st!!! more effectually. ‘To-day he re- fused to talk at all, People who live on the road between hero and tho Falls sny officers havo visited tho snloon almost every day since, and that two of them were seen this morning talking earnestly with the proprietor.

AnoMcer who visited the shanty occupied by Francis found blood upon the door, and began the search of the premises. Ife found the floors of tho several roonis strewn with feathers and straw, and on searching the bed one pillow was missing, which Mrs. Francis snid she had emptied of its feathers In order to wash {t. The contents were found in the hay, and the plllow-tick, still stuined with blood, in a tub of water, ‘There were other articits in the tub, stalned with blood, which she claimed was the result of her sickness. Reynolds noticed that the make- upof the bed had been reversed, and fourid that a pleco of tho: ticking was gone, but there wero ‘blood stains on that remaining.. ‘The woman explained that the mtssing por- tion had been taken to mend another tick which she exhibited, On the fact being pointed out that the pieces did not match, she sald sho had made a mistake, In tho cellar was fotnd a quantity of bloody feathers, The next trace of blond was found at the railroad fence, opposit the house. The bottom board was smeared with blood, and under the baard is a space through which a body had apparently been drawn, ‘The top rail of the fence was also smeared, as though a bloody hand had erasped {t, tho print of the fingers being plainly discernible. From the fence to where the body, which was that of Georgo Franels, was found is about twenty fect, Examination of the romains shows that thera were six cuts between the right ear and cen- tral portion of the back of the head, evidently mate by the full stroke of an ax blade on the left side of the head, extending from tho temple tlown the cheek, Inying the latter open, ills right hand was covered with blood, probably from having placed it to his head, ng it was uniujured. On exami- nation it was developed that. Frinels was jealous of his wife, owing to the visits of a young colored man about 18 years of age, named Isane Thoms Corsey, but commonly known as Thomas Dennis, and that this had been the subject of frequent quarrels be- tween the husband and wife, and also had gaused bad feellng between the husband and Corsey, Mrs, Francis, however, Says, this matter is nothing but a pack of “niezer flea? Mabel Aldine Francis, the little daughter of the murdered man, who is between 5 and 6 years of age, told her story substantially ns follows: Her father quarreled with Corsey Jast night, when the latter struck Francis with his hand, and her mother then struck her father four thmes with an ax, which Corsey said served him right, Afterward the mother drageed tho wounded man out of the house to the rags, and told the child to say that it was 1 ramp that hurt him, “There were three axes found in the house, ons of which had been heated and the -handle burned “off and par- tally consumed. On the unburned portion of the Intter, however, were found blood- stains, Tho woman Franels was brought to. this city in charge of a Constable and lodged in jail. | ‘This afternoon officers were sent to etfcct the arrest of Corsey, and the little girl was taken Jn charge by a Justice of tho Peace.
