Mr. Gould de- elinéd to accept the Baltimore and Ohio lines at Uhat figure, and the subject was dropped, and that Was the List thit Mr. Garrett had to say to MF.

A uttie later Mr. Garrett went to Europe and While there organized a syndicate of bunkers in Amsterdam, Who agreed to buy the Baltimore and Unio lines at Mr. Garrets figures, $10,000,000.

Hall, a variety actor, for the killing of Sophie E, Smith, allas Lillian Rivers, an actress, OM the 34 of June last, resulted in Phil- adelphia last night in a verdict by the jury of murder in the first degree, after being out but a short time. Hall, who was a married man, and had a wife and two children living in St. Louis, became infatuated.with Lillian Rivers, and lived with her under an agreement which he had him- self drawn up, binding them as man and wife, for some time. Both of the parties were of a jealous disposition, and it has been shown that Hall had threatened to take the woman’s life on account of alleged infidelity on her pari, and also toend hisown existence after putting her out of the way.

The result of the Wrangle Was that Hall drew from his pocket a re- Volver and shot her in the face, but when he saw that death did not at once ensue, he sent another bullet into her head. When the second shot failed in Its mission, he brought out a razor and cut her throat, which proved effective, and she lay a corpse’at his feet,” Having accomplished iis nur derous object, he plied the razor to his own throat, With the intention of following her to the grave.
