. A MAD MURDER. Another Case of Riot, Ruin and Death Caused by ‘the Demon Drink.” BCALPING A WIFE. The Mother-in-Law and Her Daughter Found in a Drunken Sleep Be- side the Gory Corpse. THE GUILTY HUSE AND GETS AWAY. A Horrible Picture of Debauchery and Blood in a Tenement House. At two o’clock yesterday afternoon the news was received at Police Headquarters that a horrible murder had been committed in a tenement house in East Eleventh street. George Scheffelin had killed his wife, Areporter proceeded from the HERALD office te the place where the tragedy had occurred, 414 East Eleventh street, and found it a tenement house of the catacomb order, in which are packed nundreds of squalid and shiftless humtan creatures, whose habits in general are anything but temperate or wholesome. The approach frum the street lies through a narrow, dark alley, the pavement of which is traversed by a gutter the odors from which were far from pleasant to the nostrils. En- tering the house and penetrating into the room in which the Scheffelins lived, A MOST WRETCHED SCENE presented itself. The apartment was almost bare, the floor was carpetiess and the furniture very scanty. About the small, rusty stove there were plentiful stains of blood, and even on the iron lids and on the cover of an old kettle were spattered drops of the red life-juice. Into another room, which opens from the first and was filled with dark- ness, an irresistible but horrible curiosity at- tracted the visitor, and here, after he had become accustomed to the gloomy twilight, there were visi- ble other traces .of the horror that had been en- acted, A bed stood at one side of the door, the few clothes upon which were disordered and filthy, and on the floor was a clottea pool of blood. Having seen sufficient of the dreadful evidences of the tragedy to make a sickening impression, the reporter went next to the station house and made inquiries ofa sergeant who was on duty cencern- ing the occurrence. All that they haa learned of the commission of the deed was very meagre, Roundsman Riley, shortly after the hour of noon, ‘was walking along the street, when he was ac- costed by one of the citizens whom he knew, and askea— “(HE ROW IN SCHEFFELIN’S.”? “Have you heard of the row that wo had last Bight in Scheffelin’s ?”” He replied that he had not, and the.man told him that he believed a woman was killed there. He ‘went immediately to the place indicated, Inthe living room” of the family, near the stove, he found @ woman lying prone on the floor in the midst of her own life blood, and so lacerated and torn that bhe looked scarcely human. In other parts of the room, their foul, reeking breath filling the air with the uanwholesome stench of debauchery, were stretched two drunken women, stupetied in their drink, The — by the stove was not pleasing to look upon. ie scalp Was cut from the head and lay back, revealing the raw and bloody tissues that cover the skull, The face was braised so that its color was aimost black, and it was streaked with streams of blood. The body was entirely naked, as if it had been pulled from bed, and the night clothes had been torn off in a terrible struggle. Two wounds, as if produced by stabbing, were Jound in the leit side, and one in each arm. AN OLD TABLE KNIFE smeared’ with biood was jound at the feet of the horrible remains. It was evidently the weapon with which the murder was committed, although the blade is dull and rusted, and hacked in several laces. . veaNer standing in motionless horror a moment the officer gave the signal for assistance, and, on the arrival of anotver policeman who kept guard aver the ag he went to the station house te re- port what he had seen. The sergeant detailed some men to arrest all persons who could be found under any suspicion of having been connected with the crime. THE TWO DRUNKEN WOMEN, one of whom, Ann Scheffelin, is the mother-in-law of the victim, ahd the other, Mary Morse, the sister- in-law, were partially awakened from their vile slumbers ana conducted to the station house, where they were locked up in separate cells, The pouy, late jn the aiternoon, was removed to the jorgue. The mother-in-law, Ann Scheffelin, is an old woman, with a sinister expression of countenance, | hawk-eyed and nawk-beaked, with hair of an troa- anda maudiin mouth, She was aroused frou ‘he last lapses of a besotten sicep by the keeper and came to the grated door of her cell in respoi: te his summons. The reporter then questioned ie THE SUPPOSED MURDE! GEORGE SCHEVFELI is a “boss” plasterer, who has been married to ti woman whom he killed for about six years. ux child was the frwt of their union, butit died be- fore it was a year old. ‘They lived in 103d street near Second avenue, boarding in the house of woman named Sarah Fisher. This lady may be possessed of some personal charms or she may Dot, but, at all events, she is said to have been THE CAUSE OF JEALOUSY in the breast of Marie Schetfelin, the wife of the “boss” plasterer, who imagined that improper relations existed between her and her husband, So they quarrelied, Marie was much addicted to the love of vile whiskey, and not very industrious, | pov or prudent. She left her husband about jour months ago and came to the house of her aged mother-in-law, at 414 East Eleventh street, to sojourn. Since she has been there, according to the latter's story, she has beaten and abused her, and threatened at times, when intoxicated, with the most horrible oaths, to kiil her, Into this part of her narrative the old woman infuses a good deal of passion, despite her condition of hall-stay or. Her daughter, she says, was s.ruck ou the head by | Marie with @ coal shovel aud cut very badly on Christmas Eve, ON TUESDAY NIGHT the son came to her house and entered the room where they were. Marte, his wife, was lyiug drank and asieep on the floor near the stove. He ap- proached and gave hera push with his foot. He then attempted to iilt her up and she spoke to him with abusive language, Probably becoming angry he struck her in tne jace with bis open hand, He then dragged her into the bedroom, and what afterwards occurred nis mother claims not to have seen Or heard, She says there were no screams and no struggle. What she next knew was that the son sent her daughter out to get ten eents’ worth of whiskey, which, when it was brought, they drank together. Later she told him it was time he should go to work, as he had a good deal to do, and he went down stairs into the lager beer saloon on the street. rhe keeper of tins place says that Scheffelin came in at about ten o'clock in the morni and told bim that he was going to the siation house to surrenaer himself a prisoner for what he had done. Later in the aiternoon he was seen in Harlem, and a man reported the fact at ‘the station house. Several officers were looking for him, and as ve was snpposed to be still drunk Nis powers of escape were not so great as they might have been, On a second rehearsal of her story the old woman said that she thought the murdered woman re- ecived her injuries by falling on the stove alter she was struck by her husband, She afterwards was attacked by convulsions, and received no assist- ance while they were upon her, A MYSTERY. The real facts of tne tragedy are apparently entangled im somewhat 0 a mystery, watch may, however, be cleared up when the women become sover enoagh to collect their senses, The daughter last night was still so stupefied that she could not talk, She is quite passable in appearance; her features are small and fresh, but ery regular, and she has black, luxuriant hair. Her filthy con- dition, however, was disgusting. Oid Mrs." Scheffelin claims to be @ native of Ireland, Mona- ghan counts, and is about sixty-five years of age. “HOW SHARPER THAN A SERPENT'S TOOTH |” An Ex-Superintendent of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Threatens the Life of His Mother, Archibald H, Campbell, formerly Superintendent of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, and well known as associated with Mr. Bergh in the iamoas Bonard will case, was ar- raigned before Justice Fowler, at the Jefferson Market Police Court yesterday, on complaint ‘*of his mother, Sarah S, Campbell, charg. ing lim with’ threatening her fife and | indulging in such violent demonstration as to cause fear of violence and personal injury from hito. ‘he oiticer who was called in found the old iady, wio is seventy-our years of age, in such a condition from fright that she was unable to appear in vourt, Justice Fowler, upon being notified, preceeded to the house of a reja- tive Where she had taken refuge and there tuoy | NEW YURKK HERALD, THUKSUAY; JANUAKY 16, 1873—ITKIPLE SHEET, ‘ —_— to ezamineticn, Foage animadverted in the fested et ine his dauent of his and in- foated by bine Waiter Beort Jarvis, of 108 Macdou- gal street, became hie security, THE BUOYS. IN THE BAY. anceeenesarttamnnen Channel Marks Carried Away by the Ice=Coasters in » Quandary—Govern- ment Tenders Replacing the Beacons. The storms prevalent along the Atlantic coast during the past month h: not only been the cause of many goodly vessels going to their graves, but have so shifted and dispersed beacons that even the most skilful pilots have found some dimeulty in guiding ships to asafe haven of refuge. ‘The entrance to the harbor of New York isa dim- cult one to traverse, though pilots whom long ex- perience has taught to “smell their way in” assert that they care little for the buoys and shoal water marks which indicate fair ways or dangerous sioais. But the ice sweep- ing down the North and East rivers with the tide have dragged from their moorings almost all of the more important buoys in the lower bay, That these buoys are valuable even to the most expe- rienced pilots in case of a dense fog cannot be doubted, but they are an almost absolute necessity tonine-tenths of the masters of coasting vessels which visit this port and who are not required to take certificated pilots to navigate their crait into port, The ice has carried away these buoys, and even the most expert mariner is consequently lia- ble to be deceived by the positions of these marked down on the charts. Mr. Commissioner Blunt stated yesterday toa HERALD reporter, who asked for information, that nearly allof the can and 4 buoys had driftea from their moorings in the lower bay. It was an accident caused by the ice and might occur at any time during a severe Winter. No blame whatever could be attached to Commodore Strong, whe has general charge of the lighthouses and buoys. That officer had already sent two steamers, the United States tenders Putnamand Arctic, down the bi to pick up the truant buoys, and those which hi been found would soon be restored to their proper laces, y Some of the se whom the reporter conversed with on the subject state that the spar-bi reperly. Some are held d not moored stones, others by weights and a few with room auckors,’ and these retainers are not sufil- ppd weigity or strong to resist even the action of a stiff northeaster or the flow of a field of ice. They recognize the value of these objects of de- markation to coasters, but think lightly of their use to themselves, This, however, may be regarded as only a picce of pardonable vanity on the part of these skiliu spies, for sometimes even the most sapient of them may go astray, and to “lose reckoning” in stormy weather or a dense feg when in the vicinity of the Horseshoe or the Hook, is sure te induce much anxiety, even though all dangers may be ee avolded by luck, allied to great nautical skill, If the spar and can bueys which have been displaced are at once an- | chored in amore secure manner the authorities who have charge of such matters will receive the hearty thanks of slip captams who periodically visit the port of New York. THE COMBINATION IN COAL. ace aces A Contemplated Advance of Prices. As usual at this season of the year the coal ques- tion comes up for agitation, and rumors fly about that arise in the price of the great staple o! fuel may be expected, that combinations are being made to bull the market and the great coal com- panies are preparing to swallow up tiie little ones and fix their own scale of prices. It is a fact, how- ever, that a move is on the ¢apis torun up the price of coal, and to this end a meeting of the large mining companies, comprising the” Reading Coal and Iron Company (otherwise the Reading Rail- road), Delaware and Hudson Canal Company, Dela- ware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad Com- pee oeal ae Coal aud Iron Company and c Coal and Navigation Company, will be held to-day, ‘These companies, on the pretext that mining coal is an un- profitable business at present, contemplate putting up eee filty cents per ton. When the mining companies make this advance of course the wholesale dealers make another; and when it comes to the small retail dealer he ety in charging his customers, instead of the present average rate of $5 50, the sum of $7a ton, The wave of an advance at the foduntain-head thus breaks with a severe effect upon the poor. For taking this course the companies urge the excuse that they have been heavy losers in the past, and that they are forced to borrow peg ed to keep themselves afloat at a ruinous rate of interest, The Reading Coal and Iron Company, as itis called, is alleged to be no other than the Reading Railroad; but the charter of that corporation ex- pressly forbids itg engaging in the business of mining. It owns about ninety thousand acres of mining land in Pennsyivania, and emptoys consid- erable of its own capital in mining coal. It pos- sessces a large advantage over the companies that are witheut such faciiities as the Read- ing Railroad has for shipping coal. The oue large company which refuses to enter into the contempiated combination is the l’ennsylvania Coal oe y. A HERALD reporter called to see the President of this company yesterday to ascer- tain what action it was about fo take, and was informed very emphatically that the company had no notion whatever o! entering into {he proposed arrangement, The present basis for miners, agreed ou at the beginning of the year, 18 $2 60. ‘The coal merchants, Whose offices are in ‘Trinity building, believe that this is satisfactory to the miners, and that no disturbance of mining Operations need be apprebended this year. p miners, the petted sons of toil, will be greatly placated by this con- | While the | tempiated advance in the price of coal, basis of theiy Wages is arranged not to go below 2 50 a ton, it may on a siiding scale go anywhere wbove that figure. pioch of it.
