10 THE KNIFE IN WESTCHESTER. A Midnight Murder at Melrose by an Infa- rinted German, ele Terrible Warning to Nocturnal Trespassers— How a Watch Dog Fought for Its Owner's Rights—Deadly Struggle Over a Fire= man’s Trumpet-A Sharp-Pointed Bread-Knife Ends the Conflict— Facts Elicited at the Coroner's Inquest. M the swampy region of Melrose, Westchester ‘county, and within a few yerds of the Harlem Railroad track, an affray occurred on Monday might which resulted in the killing of a young | about | man named Join Morrison, aged twenty-three years. From the many conflict ing accounts of the tragedy it hae been &® somewhat dimevit task to arrive at an accurate version of the precise manner im which the deceased met his end. It appears, ‘however, that Morrivon, efore receiving the wound which caused his death, was trespassing on the premises of Lawrence Erhardt, the man who plied his Knife with fatal effect on the intruder, The apartments occupied by Erhardt constitute the lower portion of a two story, dingy frame’ building, situated on the corner of Union street and Courtland avenne, A glanee at the interior is sufMcient to convyinco the beholder that jt is the abode of those wiio find it diMcult to struggie fer the ways and means of supporting Hie, On Courtiand avenue, and dis- tant about ten yards from Erhardt’s place of abode, is the engine house of Fleetwood Engine Company, No. 3, where the young men who delight In “BUNNING WITH THE MACUINE’? nightly congregate in the hope that something in the form of a tire may “turn up.’ Shortly alter eleven o'clock on the night indicated, the deceased, whe, although not a member of the company, had been sitting up with the “boys,” left the engine room and proceeded to an outbuilding im the yard connected with the premises of Er- hardt, !t may here be mentiened that the fire- men had been in the habit of frequenting the premises nvmed for convenience sake, and, as is as- ferted, by the express permission oi the owner ofthe property. Accordingly, it is said that their noc- turnal visits in the past have greatly annoyed Erhardt, who placed a ferocious dog in his yard, hoping by that means to keep them away. When the deceased entered Er- hardt’s premises the dog attacked him fiercely, causing him to beata hasty retre Returning to the engine house, deceased seized a trumpet and muttering imprecations against his canine foe, went again to Erhardt’s place and en- deavored to silence THE WATCHFUL ADVERSARY, with the heavy weapon which he wielded. Hear- ing the noise Erhardt at once rose from his bed, and having hastily donned a portion of his clothes, opened the back door and ordered the @eceased to desist from molesting his dog, This was responded to, as is stated, by deceased , @ealing Erhardt a blow of his trumpet, which knocked the latter down. Erhardt re- Gaining his feet ran into the house and snatching up a sharp-pointed bread kni rushed out into the yard, when he was again stagcered, as is represented, by another Q@ppheation of the trumpet in the hands of the de- ceased. Jumping to nis feet Erhardt sprang upon his assailant, and drove the knife first into the right temple of the deceased, and striking out again plunged the weapon into his throat, intlict- tng an ugly incised wound in the windpipe and SEVERING THE JUGULAR VEIN, The mortaily wounded inan hurried from the spot and staggered towards the engine house, dyeing the sidewalk with a copious stream of blood as he reeied wildly in the ‘agony of @issolution. He succeeded in reaching the engin house, where he fell in a dying condition. tis companions bore bim to the house of his father, a few rods distant, when death ensued in @ short time. Having learned the terrible fate of their com- panion the firemen belonging to No.3 gathered fround Erhardt’s house and commenced to stone it, breaking both the front and rear doors. Their fury was apparently ungovernable, and while some d@emanded that Erhardt should be taken out and lynched, others proposed to i} SET FI (TO THE HOUSE. It was at this critical moment that Sergeant Con- | nors, accompanied by Roundsinan Clark, appeared on the scene and warned the mob against commit- ting any further pbreacnef thé peace. The eiticers then enteYed the house and found Erhardt standing guard at a broken door, axe in hand, and in the wildest state of terror and alarm. He claimed the protection of tke officers, and admitted having stabbed the deceased. In a few minutes thereaiter Erhardt was locked up in the Town Hall. The accused is a German, about ferty years old, and by occupation a gardener, Since coming to live in the town he has always been regatied as @ quiet, inoffensive man, THE INQUEST. Coroner Miller, having em telligent citizens, commenced au inquest last even- ing at the Morrisania Town Hall, which was crowded to excess with a motley gathering of in- quisitive spectators.

O, Bisp- ham, and entitled “The Stampede.” It has natu- Tally attracted a great deal of attention, both from the unusuainess of the subject and the excep- tional power with which it is treated, Prairiedom ig one of the most grand, mysterious and beautiful features of our national scenery. Embracing hun- dreds of thousands of square miles, its imnumera- ble swells subside into each other like transfixed undulations of ocean, It is a solidified sea, ever spangled and vernal—a mainland Mediterranean whose azure waves have undergone transfig- uration strange as Daphne’s. The wonder is that American artists have uot oftener sought inspira- tion from a vastitude so iull of beauty, bearing such infinite riches upon its Abraham's bosom, with now and then a touch of the terrible, just sufticient to remind one of that agonizing element which helps to hem im and condition all natural Objects not less than all human affairs, It is to this terrific aspect that Mr. Bispham has, im the picture now under consideration, confined himself. Buifaio hunting has not beguiled him, and the remains of ancient mounds, and other traces of a remote civilization which some pratries occasionally offer, have presented themselves to him in vain, He has passed by the isolated groves and the infrequent rocky ridges of these great grass lands, and found nothing especially attrac- tive to his brush in the rich bettem lands that The lonely silence of these gigantic pastures has had no charms for him, and he has delibe:ately ignored the thousand quiet lovelinesse of these illimitable savannal stretching out vast as the grazing grounds of eter- nity, simply because he had in view a sterner sub- ject— nothing less than the prairie under its most appalling aspect, with a sea of flame circling and surging in the background, driving before it a herd ms wild horses, frantic with terror, confasion and dismay. liow has Mr. Bispham executed this arduous task? We all kuow of him as a young artist of promise, who has worked much and well, and who Seemed to be gradually realizing the hope he early held eut; but nothing so ambitious as “The Stam- pede’? has hitherto come from his brush, and, we might as well add at once, nothing so unique, so powerful, so full of evidence of the mastery of many diilcult details, With such a scene as this Victor Hugo or Swinburne might easily be con- ceived as sympathizing. Its eccentric grandeur would fascinate the genius of the one, and the voluptuous cruelty fire that of the other. The group of horses is a bonne dbouwhe for the mouth ef the advancing flames. We hear the relentless conflagration smacking its white-hot jaws and whetting its infernal appetite with gustatory tongue-thrusts, her own incendiary, and madly offers up the most wildly beautiiul dumb beings in her domain. But Mr. Bispham has not contented himself with giving to a grand idea so vague an expression as these metaphors imply. The largeness and the horror of the scene have not made him forget considerations of detail and finish: and the har- monious relations of his colors; their deep and powerful tone; his grand and dignifiea style, in- dividualized with various little peculiarities that put him apart; the art, the sub tlety, and” the strength with which the pas: of terror is depicted in the struggling horses; the ordonnanee of the picture, illustrating as it does how artistically smatier evects have been satrificed inorder to secure greater; the ingenuity of the grouping; the rich- hess of imagination and touch by which eequine grace and beauty are made to enhance the terror of the scene; the correctness of the drawing; the perfection of the chiaroscuro; the richness of the composition as a whole, utterly devoid as it is of confusion—all proclaim this work of Mr. Bispham’s hot only che greatest whicn has yet been sent from his studio but the greatest which any American artist of equal youth has yet had the opportunity of putting well before the public, Those who have already admired this picture will be interested in learning that about a dozen other works by Mr. Bispham will be sold next Friday, at the Schenck Galle 60 Liberty street, OPENING OF THE OSWEGO CANAL ALBANY, N.

A Young Girl of Fourteen Ontraged and Beaten to Death, Two Swedes Traced and Arrested for the Outrage. EXCITEMENT IN THE COMMUNITY. Pirrspura, Pa., April 29, 1873. Saltsburg, a village some fifteen miles distant from this city, was yesterday the scene of one of the most fiendish crimes on record, The victim is Lizzie Ness, an adopted daughter of Christian Kline, who resides at Riverside station, on the Pittsburg, Baitimore and Washington Railroad. It appears that Lizzie had been sent to Mr. Shanks’ store, at Saitsburg, to make some purchases and took @ short cut acress the hill to reéch the latter place, that being the usual route, She arrived at Mr. Shanks’ store, made her purchases, and after some pleasant conversation started with a friend to visit a family in the upper end of the town. Nothing more was heard or seen of her until aiter the discovery of the tragedy, From the upper end of the town, where she parted with a iriend, to the spot where the deed was committed is hardly ten minutes’ walk. Mrs. Kline waited patiently the return of her adopted daughter, but at length, becoming alarmed at the long absence of the girl, started in search of her, Coming over the hill to her horror she found THE CHILD LYING SENSELESS upon the ground, her head a mass of blood and covered with wounds; the clothing was partially torn from her person, showing a struggle, and her limbs were bare. On examination of the ground two stones, lately pulled from the earth, were found with hair and some apatters of blood upon them, and also a stick of wood, apparently torn from a fence rail, all of which were evidently used in beating the brains ont of the innocent girl. Marks of the feet of two men were found, apd those were measured and ail marks noted. Under a shelf oi rock some distance from the spot where the murder was committed there was considerable tramping, as though the perpetrators had been consulting there what to do, Mrs, Kline raised her in her arms, and besought her, in accents of agony, to speak and to live. The victim of this unexampled and croel murder feebly relkent her head and murmured ‘Iwo,” and then she FELL BACK AND SPOKE NO MORE, The poor woman then, recovering from her ter- Tor, uttered piercing cries, Which attracted the at- tention of some carpenters who were working on a new building within 200 yards of where the vic- tim was found, and aiso men at work on Brown's coal road, in the immediate vicinity. They rushed to the place {rom whence the cries proceeded. and they, too, were struck with terror at the feariul spectacle presented. Life, however, was not en- tirely extinct, and they carried the child to the house of August Oberly, where medical assistance was summoned. Nothing could be done tor the sufferer, and she gradually sank and died at twi- light. The examination made by the physician showed that the victim had first been brutally out- raged, and that after or vefore the crime was com- mitted she had been beaten about the head with atioks and stones, the murderous Weapons covered wi CLOTTED BLOOD AND HAIR , having been found near the spot where the de- ceased was lying. Furtrer investigation showed that the skull had been fractured in two places, ‘The victim was about fitteen years of age and was raised from infancy in Saltsburg. She was a bright, intelligent and handsome girl, with a wealth of wavy black hair that was literally soaked with biood. Yesterday alternoon, as soon us the murder was known, there were inscant inquiries for cir- cumstances that would point out the guilty person, It was learned at the store that the girl had obtained Ae articles for which she had been sent and had _ started back over the hill towards home. People about the building had also seen two strange men, evidently tramps, loafing about during the morning, and, some little time after the girl started from home, they had been noticed passing down the railroad track rather hurriedly, The clew was sufficient to set fhe whole community thinking over their own experiences during the morning and many little circumstances were brought out calculated to strengthen the opinion that these men had com- mitted the deed. Charles Dillion, a pit boss, just above the station, had seen two persons answering to the same description climbing over the brow of the hill and almost voluntarily tumbiing dewn the precipitous side. in apparent eagerness to reach the hottom. He did not attach any importance to the fact at the time, for it was not uncommon for men to clamber down hili instead of taking the easier but longer path, but the crime recalled their unusual baste. The Police soon got on the track of these parties, They were followed, and it was found that they had stopped and taken a drink at McGeavey’s, in the upper end of Port Perry. One of them paying for the drinks presented a one dollar bill, and, in doing 80, showed by the Way he held the note and then the change that he was short-sighted. Afterwards they met a third party, and the three took dinner atthe tavern between Brenton and Port Perry. They sneaked off without paying for their meais, and the next heard of them they had been in tav- erns in Braddockborough, and finally an employé of the railroad saw men such as were described to him, three oi them, near the saltworks station, on their way to this city. This morning THEY WERE ARRESTED and lodged in the Tombs alter they were commit- ted. Their clothing was examined, and on the shirt of one of thei were found blood-stains which make one shudder to look at, They are Swedes, and gave the names of Pohle and Hynde, The former is tall and sharp- featured, with high forehead, from which his hair was combed back, giving the fore part ef the head the appearance oi incipient baldness, He has a decidedly wicked expression and is about thirty-six years of age. The other is a short man, of very slight build and older than the tall one, having the appearance of being forty years of age or thereabouts, He is even more sharp-featured than the other; he has @ mustache and goatee. They deny ali knowledge of the crime, A man who was down from Saltsbarg identified the two men as those who were st searched tor by the people up there yesterday, and they were further identi- fied as painters by a painter of this city who worked with them some time ago. With all the circumstances pointing so strongly against them, ue Mayor committed them fer iurther examina- jon. REAL ESTATE MATTERS. Combination Sale of Properiy to Make Values—Pernicious Effect of the Prac- tiee=Corporation Sale Withdrawn— Protests Against the Route of the Gil- bert Elevated Ratiroad. Yesterday's transactions on the Real Estate Ex change will long be remembered as an epoch which has demonstrated that while buyers are plentiful to invest in property on all partsof Manhattan*Island they are by no means ready to purchase at a sale where a combination of proprietorship has been made in order to dispose of large parcels under the impression that the sale is held by erder of a Court, Suchjwas the state of affairs yesterday at 111 Broad- way. Messrs. Muller, Wilkins & Co, offered fifty-six lots iocated on Boulevard, St. Nicholas, Fifth, Tenth and Eleventh avenues, and Eighty-second, 124th, 137th and 168th streets, under the announce ment that the sale was under the direction of Messrs. Wetmore & Bowne, attorneys, But every frequenter of ‘Change knew full well who the real owners were, and the bidding was everything else butspirited. The natural consequence was that the major portion of the proffered estate was bid a Which cam by 10 means have the sligitest effect upon the market. The proposed sale of Corporation property tended to draw together a good assemblage, which, upon its adjournment by the Comptroiler, whd was present, to May 25, gathered around the stand where Mr. Muller Was selling. ‘The feeling was intensely bearish, and this was the first sule this season Which las proved unsuccessful, We have receetved several communications on the subject of the first mentioned sale, the writers whereof express themselves highly indignant at the manner in which values are sought to be es- tablished, and employ not only expressive, but very decided language in regard thereto. Itis not our intention to criticise the action of any one in particular in this sale; but numerous prominent real estate operators deprecate the entire transac- tion a8 calculated to injure the trade. If parties have any property to dispose of at public sale let them geil it over their name, and they will certain. ly find purchasers, as was the result in the case of Mr. Lehmaier this Spring, and whose lots realized good prices, The jollowing are the details of the entire busi- ness done AT THE RXCHANGE YFSTERDAY :— BY HUGH N. © By order of the Commission he Sinking Fund of fhe,elty of New York, the Property belng put up ata “nit. st, No, 160, ¢, 8. ft. 8. of Houston st.
