They stayed all night, and on the morning of July 1, Udderzook went & Penningtonville, on the Pennsylvania raiiroad about 12 miles distant. He stopped on the way with a brother-in-law, Samuel Rhodes, to whom it is alleged he made a proposition to pat & man out of the way, as they could make $2,000 by it, and upon Rhodes’ refusal said he would do it himself, but asked and obtained permission to bring the man, who was at Jen- nerville, to Rhodes’ house to spend a few days. He then hired a horse and buggy at Penning- tonville, with which he returned to Jennerviile, where he took in the stranger, and about five o'clock in the evening started toward Cochran- ville. Penningtonville is about 12 miles trom dJennerville, and Cochranville is on the road miles from Jennerville, and 5from Penningtoi ville. Udderzook returned the buggy to Mr Baldwin. from whom he had hired it, about o'clock the same night. with the dash and o side broken, the blankets lost, and A PEW MARKS OF BLOOD about it. There was also a large seal ring found inthe buggy. Khodes waited up unti\ nearly twelve o'clock for the party to come when, bearing a carriage drive rapidly past his house, he gave them up and went to bed. 0: Juve lith, about noon, Gainer P. Moore was passing thiough a piece of woods on the Coch Tanville road, about two miles below Penning tonville, where his attention was attracted by « large tlock of buzzards, and going a short dis tance into the woods, he found buried THE BODY OF A MAN. He raised an alarm, and the dissevered leg were found buried in another place some fifte ards distant, was held and the Udderzook was ar with the murdes ught'a new feature into the case ed in Baltimore a man in ver rate circumstances named Winfield S who was married to a sister of Udder Through the help of his brother. . Campbell Goss, it is claimed, he had ob tained polic of insurance on his life to the amountof €25,000, in diferent companies, thy preminms on which were some $400, and far beyond his apparent means to One night in February, 15:2, Wintield S$. Gost, Udderzooh and another man repaired to the shop wher, Goss was experimenting on a substitute for In dia rubber. and while Udderzouk and the other man went out to procure a lamp chimney, the shop was burned down, and it was claimed by Mrs. Goss and her friends that RE WAS BNED TO DEATH. The insurance companies deeming the citcum stances suspicious, refused to pay the policies and suits were brought agatnst them, in whict Udderzook was a leading witness for Mrs. Goss and claimed to identify the body round in the ruins as that of Goss. Upon the arrest of Ud derzook the insurance companies became inter ested, and it was developed that a man answer ing the description of Winfield 8. Goss had been living a retired life at Cooperstown, Delaware county, Bryn Mawr, Trenton, and other places since October, 1872, and that he was the same man who had come to Jennersville with Udder- zook. Goss had very beautiful teeth, while those in the body found in the ruins were very ad. THE LODY AT PENNINGTONVILLE was taken up, and it was found that the teeth were very fine, although there had been an evi dent attempt to destroy them at the time of the murder. At this point A. Campbell Goss was arrested in Baltimore as the principal party who engineered the attempt to swindle the ia surance companies, aud will be tried there after the trial of Udderzook is concluded. I[t is ex pected that the evidence to be produced on thi trial will disclose that a body was procured anc put in the burning shop to represent Winsiele Goss, while he went into retirement antil th: money was obtained from the insarance comp mes; that during the delay which their refuss to pay caused, he became troublesome to his keepers, or else their money ran out, and it wa determined to put him out of the way, lest b should turn up and spoil all; that to commit t crowning crime Udderzook was selected, « for this he is now to answer.
