10 THE LATEST WIFE MURDER wee ‘Particulars of the Ul- County Horror. Harrowii 8% ‘BrutaZy’ Beaten for Two Yoars—The Fiend At- to Throw Her Down a Well and to Her Alive—He Finally Kicks and Pounds Her to Death— Arrest of the Murderer. Krnastor, N. ¥., Dec. 11, 1871 ‘Ia Uister county, on Saturday evening last, there ‘was enacted another of those horrible and fiendish murders for which that county has of iate become woted. A murder more sickening in its details has weldom 1f ever found a place in the annals of crime, Rock Lock’s, ’ THE SCENE OF THE MURDER, is situated on the Delaware and Hudson Canal, ‘about seven miles from Kingston. The facts as gleaned by a HERALD reporter are as follows:— About two years ago Thomas Degan, 8 young ‘man, then about twenty-two years of age, married @ young woman about twenty years of age. A short ume after their marriage he began a course of bru- ‘tal treatment toward her whom he nad a few months before sworn to love and protect. He be- came very dissipated in bis habits and daily grew more cruel in his treatment of his wife. Night after might, as he would come home from his drunken arousals, the neighbors would hear the ORIES AND SCREAMS of his abused wife, and shudder as they heard the kicks and blows, lond and fast, as they fell upon the defenceless woman. On Saturday evening the Jast act in this HORRIBLE DRAMA was enacted. It appears that on Saturday morning Thomas Degan, in company with a few friends, went to Rosendale, a small village a few miles dis- Sant, and there became somewhat intoxicated, but yet not so much under the influence of liquor as not to know what he was about, <Atier spendiug the day at Rosendale he returned home at about six o’clock in the evening, and for once ap- quite sociable and friendly towards his wife. she si for the well, about aeventy- five yards distant, for the purpose of obtaining Water. Thomas soon followed, She, seeing him approach, spoke kindly to him, and said:—“Tom, are you going to help me draw water?’ He replied, in an angry voiee, ‘Damn you! I am going to take your life,” and then seized her and ATTEMPTED TO THROW HER IN THE WELL She cried for help several times, and Degan, seein, ® Wagon approaching, and fearful of being detected, Joosened his hold, at the same time giving her a feartul kick in her side, ORUSHING IN HER RIBS. Rose then ran to the house of Mrs, McKin- yey and jt up stairs to where Mra. McKinley was, and ‘I am , 1 guess! Tom has killed me; please send for a doctor."’ Mra, McKin- ley then séated the injured woman in a rocking chair, and was about calling for help when she heard the front door open and saw the brute Degan enter. Heat once went up stairs, and, taking his dying wifefrom the chair, attempted to put her on @ red hot stove, and, as he said, “ROAST HER ALIVE,” In this he was frustrated by Mrs, McKinley, Who fought bravely to save Rose Degan from 80 horrible a death. Degan having veen foiled in his design, turned upon Mrs. McKinley and struck her fearful blow; then selzing his wife, he threw her with great'force into the corner of the room, and then, while she lay oieeding and insensl- bie, struck her several blows upon the head an@ face witn a chair, inflicting I vem? wounds. Not xe content he caught nold of her feet, and, while olding her in that position, kicked her unmerci- Sally in her wbdomen and private parts. Vegan felaxing in his assault, Rose regained her con- eclousness and managed to crawl into a bedroom adjoining, and attempted to lock the door. Before this could be accomplished, however, the fiend forced the door, and again and again atrock and kicked his now senseless wigan creceing her gbout the room by the hair in flen glee and say- ing. “Now I have finished you.” ‘ne two rooms in whtch the horrible trageay Was enacted presented the appearance of a SLAUGHTER HOUSE. The foor, the walls and even the ceiling were be- Bmeared With blood. The hair of the dead woman, which had been pulied out by the fiendish husband, Was thick upon the floor, while the stairway leading to the rot below was reeking with blood, and the Goors bore the marks of bloody bands, an ney rod ~ by Bn 3 kgf e nel hood a le. e house. ew minutes after jured =woman was taken down whe apartments occupied stairs into by Owen Gallagher aud family, ‘and = possivie done wo relieve her suf- ferings. fr.

About eieven o'clock vive same night Degan returned to the nouse where lus wie iay and demanded admittance, which was denied him, his wife begging that he should not be allowed to enter, saying that she knew he would kiil ner. Degan then went away, but re- turned again in about ten minutes, and again de- ded admittance. Gallagher refused, telling Lim e would not aliow bim to see her ll morning, ‘whereupon Degan said he would come in if he had to force tne door. He commenced to carry lus threat into execution by kicking in one of ine panels, Gallagher, WITH AXE IN HAND, stood guard at the door, determined to strike down the murderer should he attempt to enter, Mrs, G her warned him not to come in at the peril of his life, and he Peay withdrew, not wishing to face certain death, tq his own house. About three o'clock on Sunday morning he was arrested winle preparing for fight. DEATH OF THE VICTIM. Mrs. Degan lingered through the night in great agony, and died about eight o’clock Sunday morn- ing. A coroner's jury was at once summoned, and Biter viewing the » Which PRESENTED A SICKENING APPEARANCE, the chest and ribs being broken in, rendered a ver- dict that Rose Degan came to her death from tnju- ea Willtuliy inflicted by her husband Thomas Degan. hereupon the prisoner was commitied to the Kingston jail to await the action of the Grand Jury.

Alexis Examines the Boston Edu- cational System. A Quiet Visit to the Various Public Schools— His Pleasure at What He Saw There—He Asks for the Plan of Their Organization. Boston, Dec, 12, 1871, The movements of Duke Alexis to-day have been of an informal and quiet character. His Imperial the Highness having expressed a desire to witness methods of instructing in Our public schools ar- Yangements were maae for his visit by the Com- mitiee of City Council, and at their request Mr, Philbrick, Superintendent of Schools, acted as chaperon of the party in showing and explaining to them the workings of the different departments. ‘The Duke and his companions left the Revere House at abuut a quarter before ten o'clock this forenoon in two carriages, the first being ovcupied by the Duke, the Russian Admiral, Mr. Machin and Mr. Philbrick. in the next carriage were three of the Duke's sutte, accompanied by Mr. Perkins, of the city committee, It was particularly the desire ot the Duke and his party that the visit should be strictly private and informal, so that they might see THE SCHOOLS AT THEIR EVERY DAY WORK. In compliance with this wish no notice was given to the schools that ums visit was to take place, the ‘eachers only being informed of the approach of the party a few moments before they entered. The first visited was the primary school on Appleton street, On allghting from their carriage the party entered the room devoted to teaching the low- est classes, the children in which had only attended school a few months under the charge of Miss Sprague, who gave an illustration of the method of teaching these children to read by the use of Dr, Lee’s phonetic system. With this exhi- bition the visitors appeared much gratified, and made inquiries in regard to procuring the books and charts by which the system was taught. They atterwards visited successively the ditferent rooms in the second school, under the charge of Misa Hooper, Miss Cheney and Miss Beal, where they witnessed recitations in ditferent studies as they were going Ou, such as reading, spelling, drawing on the black board, writing on the slates, lessons 1a arithmetic, music and so forth, They appeared par ticularly pleased with the manner of seating the pupils, by which each one was given a chair and a desk. They then went to the upper story of this building, where THE NORMAL ART SCHOOL is located, und spent considerable time in examin- ing the models, drawings and patterns in this de- partment. From this school the visitors proceeded to the Rice Grammar School for ooys, where they were received by Mr. Wheelock, the principal of the school; Mr. Fiint, chairman of the Scnool Com- mittee, was also present. Here the different classes were heard at the regular recitattons, and the highest class read an extract from one of Daniel Webster’s speeches, which was WARMLY COMMENDED by the members of the party. While they were passing through the several rooms ol tiie school the teachers arranged’ for assembling the diiferent classes in the hall, and when the Duke entered on is way out he was received by the scholars thus assembled and an tlustration given of the march- Ing of the pupils, which was executed in an_admir- able manner to the music of the plano, Mr, Phil- brick then introduced the Grand Duke, and a few remarks were made by Dr. Machin expressing the GREAT SATISFACTION OF THE GRAND DUKE in his visit to their school. The visitors then pald a visit to the Girl’s High and Normal School. After introducing the distinguished party they visited the trammg departinent, where the pupils went through some beautiful gymnastic exercises, under the direction of @iss Stickney. From this depart- ment they proceeded to the chemical laboratory, under the charge of Miss Capen, where the junior class of some seventy-five or one hundred girts were performing chemical experiments, They then paid brier visits to several other rooms, including the arawing room, under the charge ol Mr, Furneaux, and the botanical laboratory. In the meantime the pupils of the school had been assembled in the new hall, and on the entrance of tue Duke le was received with lively applause. Aiter the applause had subsided several FINE PIECES OF MUSIC were presented under the direction of Mr. Eich- berg, about half the pupils present taking part in the performance, Mr. Phiibrick then introduced the Duke to the school, and a member of the Duke’s sulle made a few remarks expressive of the satis- faction they had enjoyed in examining the ditferent schools, and he told the young ladies that as upon them would devolve, in‘agreat measure, the TEACHING OF THE RISING GENERATION much depended upon their qualifications for this important work. Just before they left the Girls’ High aud Noraial School the party were joined by Rev. Mr. Cudworth, chairman of the committee of that school, who assisted in doing the honors of the occasion. This was the last school visited, and the party returned to the Revere House, where they arrived before twelve o'clock, The Duke expressed to Mr. Philbrick his pleasure at what he had witnessed and asked that documents relating to the organiza- tion of the schools might be furnished him. This eveniug the Duke and his suite were present at one of the city theatres, The Imperial Visit to Canada. TORONTO, Ont, Dec, 12, 1871, No public demonstration will be made on the arrival of tne Graud Duke Alexis, who is expected here on Thursday. He will be received privately by the corporation committee, WALEACK’S THEATRE—FIRST “JOHN GARTH, “Jonn Garth,” produced for the first time last evening, was a triumphant and enthusiastic suc- cess. This was all the more creditanle, since the fame of Brougham asa playwright and of Lester Wallack as an actor attracted an audience such as tew other names have of late had power to draw together in New York. Indeed, the house was Milled with as brillant, fashionavle and cnitured an assemblage as that which rallied to the support of the opera un the memorable nights of ‘Faust’? and the Duke. We have already sketched the plot of the piece, and can only add that it “acted” even better than it promised, The opening scene was, perhaps, a little tame, but with the return of John Garth to his old home, the audience settled down into an earnest and interested attention wnich steadily tacreased as the characters of the principal actors graduaily developed. It had been feared that the pilot was too intricate and that the shades of charac:er were too delicately drawn to be ade- quately understood by people who had not read the novel. But this misgiving was altogether un- founded, Even the finer and hidden efects—the strong contrasts between the paternal love of Garth for his daughter aud of Paolo Baretui for his son, be- tween the reckless villany of Paolo and the remorse. ful criminality of Gregory Deerham, between the loves of Garth and Hester and of Antontoand Min- nle—were fully appreciated, The piece will certainly enjoy @ good run, and it stands more than a fair chance of passing honorably into the classic réperiowre of modern drama, It would be hard to exaggerate the merits of Mr. Waliack’s John Garty. This isa rdle of a very aif- ferent type {rom those he has chiefly affected im the past, Jron strength of will, rude honesty, depth and weight, and innate grandeur and nobleness of nature—these are its principal features. Whata contrast to the polished, grace- ful, well-dressed, fine gentlemen who have been Mir, Wallack’s favorite parts in former dass! He brings out with impressive effect, and, though HT OF quietly and easily, Stilt with constant art, the assionate though latent energy that marks he hero of the drama; for hevo John Garth undoubtedly 1s, The scene in which he casts off his daughter is terrivie in its suggested earnest- neas; while we gradual melting of the rough and sorrow-Wort adventurer into the tenderness of a dove agreeably relieves the sternness of the previous acts, and the curtain falls upon bim as he 1s displaying the more pleasant and natural aspects of his character, Gregory Deerham is admirably portrayed =by Mr. — Gilbert, and Mr. Polk is a passable Antonio, Antonio, how: ever, does not seem to be a very effective part. Mr. Fisher's Paolo Barrectl 19 rather too broadiy aca coarsely drawn in the earlier scenes, but graduaily improves in finish and naturalness; and in the jodg- ing house scene, where he appears as an escaped Jorgat tO again annoy his son, the part 1s per- fectly enacted, Miss Plessy Mordaunt deserves high praise as Hester Deerfium, and the character is singularly well adapted to ber. Mrs. Ciara Jen- mings as Minnie Garth 18, as usual, easy, graceful and pleasing. ‘The “sensations” of the piece spring so naturally from the characters of its actors that they are reteemed from vulgarity ana ex- travagance, and seem fairly to belong to the Teal world in Which we live, The situation in tne fourth act, wiere Paolo raises his hand to slay his fon, unuer the bellet that it 18 nis deadly foe, and is interrupted by the interference of Garth himself, 19 Ove Of the most novel, exciting and poweriul ever produced on the stage.

THE EIGHTH DAY OF THE TRIAL. Continued Cross-Examination of Profesor Aiken— The Apothecary Who Sold the Tartar Emetio— The Story of the Bottle of Laudanum. ANNAPOLIS, Md., Dec. 12, 1871. ‘The trial of Mrs. E. G. Wharton tor the murder of General W. Scott Ketchum was resumed this morn- ing, in the Cirowt Vourt of tnis county, at precisely ten o'clock. There was no marked change in the sur- roundings of the prisoner or Court worthy of mention, Chief Justice Miller and the two Associate Justices took their seats at precisely the hour named, and the erier announced in due form that the Court was in session for THE EIGHTH DAY'S PROCEEDINGS im this case, The prisoner and daughter, accom- panied by thelr friends, Baa previously en- tered the court room and taken seats as usual in rear of those occupled by counsel for defence. Mra. Wharton seemed perfectly com- posed and in good health, as did her daughter. The same alr of sorrow and grief for the unfor- tanate position in which she was placed pervaded the entire congregation of friends that clustered around this unhappy mother and daughter to give them their counsel and support inthis the hour of their terrible trial, All the counsel for both prosecution and defence were in their places when the Court was called to order. The crowd within the court room was fully as great as upon any previous day of the trial, and, a8 usual, a prominont feature of the assemblage Was the congregation of BLEGANTLY ATTIRED AND BEAUTIFUL LADIES. Alter the preliminaries of organization Mr. Revel, for the prosecution, stated that they were ready to proceed, and Professor W. E. Aiken, who occupied The stand all day yesterday and a portion of the day before, resum 1h Mr, teele, for de- fence, took up the thread of cross-examina- tion where left of yesterday even- Ing and continued it until twelve o’ciock in the most thorough and searching manner. Tuere was no new evidence adduced worthy of particular mention, except the farther development of tue fact that the analysis of General Ketchum's stomacn was begun, continued and concludea im a manner reflecting NO CREDIT UPON THE PROFESSOR Who made it, aud whose own evidence of the fact was given in full in yesterday’s HERALD. Alter Dr. Atken leit the stand Mr. Revell directed the calling of Peter Smith, the janitor of the Mary- land Medical University, for the purpose of showing 1n whose possession and management the keys of the laboratory were where Dr. Aiken performed nis analysis, His testimony was entirely unimportant except as developing some little carelessness avout the management of the means of egress to the la- boratory under his charge, Jacob Weaver, the undertaker at whose place of business the post-mortem examination was made, was the next witness called for thé prosecution, He testified that he took the body of General Ketchum from Mra. Wharton’s house to his place of business, where it remained until the postmortem examina- uon was concluded. A. A. Kleirschmidt testified that he is an apothe- cary and the Junior partuer of the firm of Gosman & Co.; has known the prisoner over two years; on Monday, June 26, between seven and haif-past seven, Mrs. Wharton came into the store and asked for @ smail vial of tincture of valerian; wit- ness gave her an ounce; the prisoner then asked for A SMALL QUANTITY OF TARTAR EMBTIC, saying that she wanted it for a plaster; thinks he gave her sixty grains, which he charged on their 00K. The “entry book,” with the original entry, was shown, which was the first entry on that day in the pT tie | of the witness, and charged to Mrs. Wharton, Witness sold the articles in person to the prisoner. He furtner testifiea relattye to the png accor of yellow jessamine by Dr. Wiluams ‘or General Ketchum. The cross-examinauon of this witness was de- ferred for the present. Henry W. Hanna was sworn, and testified to Mrs. Wharton being present at Gosman’s, as stated by Kleinsmidt, N. H. Hutton was sworn. He had known Mrs. Wharton for several years. ‘Tye witness then detailed circumstances and” times of seein General Ketchum during his iilness at Mrs, Wharton’s: his assisting Dr. Wiliams to remove General Ketchum trom the sofa to the bed, ‘as detailed in the evidence of Dr. Williams and THE VIOLENCE OF THE CONVULSIONS previous to Ketchum's death. The only new and Material statement by Mr. Hutton was that on Wednesday, June 28, between nine and ten o'clock . M., aller reaching the house of Mrs, Wharton, where he was attending Mr. Van Ness. Mrs. Wharion called witness aside, saying she had Something very important and disagreeable to com- mun:cate to him, which she wanted witness to com- municate to Dr. Williams, and enjoined that it should not be mentioned to any one else. Mrs, Wharton then produced from her pocket a vial which she said contained laudanum, which had been found avout General Keichum's bed by Susan, the servant, ihe day beiore. Witness expressed regret that he nad not been informed of it on the previous day, when the prisoner sald she could not make up her mind to mention the matter, as the inference Would be disagreeavie to herself and General Ketchum. About this time Dr, Williams came in, and went up to General Ketchum’s room. The subject of the vial was mentioned in Dr. Williams’ evidence. ‘The cross-examination of Mr, Hutton was begun when the hour of three o’clock P, M. arrived, and the Court adjourned till to-morrow.
