Sr. Evsenbach was aguin called, aad te~tin-d that Wood was not the man who stabod Sebirop. Coroner Wood ward here propored to swear William Wood, but Justice Claytos -a that it could pot be done, as he bad just com- mitted Wood for the crime. Wood, however, wae asked i! he desired to make a statement, :G, having answered in the alirmative, he on God to witness that he knew notviag of the murder or of the party wo committed it. His statements, however, were so conflict. ing that it was evident to the jury he knew more of the matwr than he chose :o tell.” He acknowledged being with a party last nigh: at Brown's restaurant, corner of Thirteenth street and the Avenue, at Emrich’s European Howe and at other pointe. He deoied, nowever, a knowledge of the parties who were nis com panions, and said he only knew one by the Bame of “Jimmy.” At firet he pretended that he was eo drunk that he knew nothing of ths and piace of his arrest,buat a few qa- Ss well putsoon embarrassed him, sud is one sentence he would deny an as-ertion pre- viously made, and eo on to theend of the chap ter. vthing that could throw any Inchton murder was elicited, except thatin one of Bi final statements he acknowledged that he aud two others pushed up arainst some (#erma.is cp the Avenue, near Tenth street, aad he re2vl- lected that a slight row ensued. Mr. John Brown testufled that Wood companions were in his restauran:. not bear one called by th- name of amy. Mr. Charles Marre -estifed that Wood sad tas companions cume into the Europesa iistel, corner of Pennsylvania av. nue and Eieventa Street, Jast #; and that the person des ori ed y Wood as Jimmy atumpted to steal a wiar giase. One of the friends of deceased testified that alter the st»bbing occurred, Woudl usd sae of said friends of baving commuitied the det. and Mr. Thorpe also testified tha: bv thoagat Wood was very anxious to deny the sion of the crime long before any one a: him of it. Wood denies hsving any knowledge weat ever of his cempanion Jimmy further than a< a mere Acquaintance, but deserives him as a tall, emooth-faced young man, and that Wore a black overcoat and black bat. The wound inflicted is a most ghastly one. It was? probed and examined by Drs. Schell aad Thorp, and was found to be an inch and 4 half long outsice, and six inches deep —e videutiy inflicted with a bowie knite. The knife pierc a the left breast, between the seventh and eubta ribs, cutting upwards and forwards atthe ap-x of the heart. The blow was evidentiy given by an experienced hand, and was inflicted with sTeat power, as it cut th 8 thickiy-padd-d overcoat and vest and two shirts; and, from the appearance of the wound outside, the knife was evidently run in up to the hilt. The jury afvr a few moments consul ation, returned a verdict that the deceased came to bis death b: wound inflicted by a knife in the bands of some p: rson to the jury nknown,; and that Willism Wood, who is now in custo- dy, was of the party who committed the deed, and they believe him to be an Accessory. (Pending the arrival of a witness, who had been sent for, a remark by a bystander elicited the fact tha: the preecioae of the dragstors, Mr. Xelowski, Tefused to open his place Jast wight until after the reiterat-d demands of the crowd who assembled after the marder hat been committed. It was asserted, ag an excu~e for Mr. X.’s action, that Schirop was then dead: but 2 police officer present paid be was pot dead when the demand to open was fret made; and it was further remarked by the officer that under the law it was a is business to be prepared to open at all times and atall hours.) —— Ba.timoxs Coxrexence.— The Conference Adjourned to-day at two o'clock, after Bishop Simpson had announced the appointm-nts for the ensuing year.
