‘BROOKLYN TRUNT COMPANY. ——_+—— A Patient Waiting for the Statement of the Direetors—The Agony of Suspense Still Continues. —— ee An Interview with Receiver Chauncey—His Answer to the Charges Brought Against the Board of Directors—Secretary Rodman Suspended from His Position as Dep- uty ‘City Treasurer—Alderman Bopes’ Opinion—The Will of the Late President—A Let- ter from Mr. Hondlow. The phase of public opinion that prescribed self yesterday in reference to the, affairs of the Brooklyn Trust Company is that of acceptance of the situation, There is great @iscontent on the part of the stockholders and depositors, but there 4s an increasing disposition to await the statement of the receiver befere taking any hostile action, ‘The stockholders will meet te-day to decide upon what day they will call & special meeting for con- sidering their position, Im:an interview given be- low Receiver Chauncey states his views as to the charges brought against the company. He reiterated yesterday to a reporter of the Heratp his firm conviction that the de- Positors would be paid dollar for dollar, In this ‘opinion he is supported by Alderman Ropes, the Chairman of the Finance Committee of the Com- mon Council, who, on bebalf of the city, has made an investigation of the company’s affairs, Mr. Rodman has been suspended from his position as Deputy City Treasurer, but it isscarcely likely that ®imilar action will be taken as to his Secretaryship of the Trust Company, There will be a meeting of the directors this (Wednesday evening, when it 4s not unlikely that important action will be taken. The will of the late Mr. Mills, given below, affords an opportunity of forming a judgment as to the estimated value of real estate, and the amount that can be made available for reatoring the bal- ance of the overdrawn account, INTERVIEW WITH MR, RECEIVER CHAUNCEY. Yesterday afternoon a reporter of the HERALD called at the offices of the company,.and, entering the directors’ room, found Mr. Receiver Chauncey im a group Of directors and other gentlemen, en- gaged in general conversation. Perceiving the reporter, Mr. Chauncey at once left his brother directors, and, taking @ seat at a corner of the Troom, invited the reporter to join him. Contrary to the usual custom when an interview is impend- tng, Mr. Chauncey opened the interview by address- ing the reporter, and said:. “Now, I want to interview you, for the reporters and the newspapers evidently know more than I do about this affair, and I tunk it likely you can give me some information.” “i have not the slightest objections to be inter- viewed, Mr, Chauncey, and if there is any inforima- “Hou that i can give you 1 will give it with pleas- ~ure.' “Several of the newspapers seem to object to my being appointed receiver, and intimate that | and some of my fellow directors are in ‘a ring,’ and that, in short, we are all pretty much in the same Doat as Mr. Mills, I should like to know on what ioe | ground this supposition.” “1 cannot tell Plog on what the papers ground this supposition, Mr, Chauncey, but I think it strikes the common sense of common, ordinary people that it is somewhat anomalous that this tavestiga- tion should be conducted by the parties who are to be investigated, and whose action, as directors, as excited something that appears like public in- dignation.”” NEVER SOUGHT THE APPOINTMENT. “I never sought the oflice of receiver; I refused t0 take it, and it was only at the earnest wish of Personal iriends that I decided to take it. I nave Plenty of business to attend to; 1 want tobe away with my ‘amily, who are in the country, and would Much rather not have had the receivership. I don’t care about the two and a half per cent remunera- tion, aud if the stockholders want an outside party : pepointed receiver I say, by ail means, let them ve HOSTILE ACTION. “You don’t know of any hostile action on the t of stockhoiders or depositors, do you, Mr. Chauncey ?”’ ‘As jar as the stockholders are concersed the only hostile action I bear of is that which is threat- ened in the newspapers, I have seen a good num- ber o! the depositors, and I have not met with one xe, that is dissatisfied with our present policy. I ad one in to-day, avery large depositor, and he will wait the issue of events with patience, Indeed they all will. What else can be done?” “Oan you form any idea as to when it is likely ‘That patience wiil be rewarded, Mr, Chauncey?” “Icannot. When all the depositors’ books are in we can compare them with the bank books, ‘and if all is correct why we shall very soon be ina position to declare the first dividend.” “You saw what Mr. Hondlow said in an inter- view in the HERALD to-day about directors know- ing and pot knowing what was going on in their 4nstitutions.” THE IGNORANCE OF DIRECTORATE BOARDS. , “IT did, Mr. Hondlow 18 a highly respectable man, and bis judgment is to be respected; but the question is, what is practicable aud what is not Pepccane®. Now, 48a matter of practice, it is impossible for any board of directors to know all the detatis o/ the business of any institution or com- y- ‘The executive head must be relied upon jor is. He is calted upon to decide as to whether he shall or spall not enter into cer- -tain negotiations every hour of the dav, and toe bourd meets twice @ month. It is mani- fest that nearly every detail must be left to the judgment of the President. In this bo rd there Were certain loans that | opposed, but | happened to be in a minority, unfortunately for the, institu- tion. That was only in special matters ‘brought before the board; the detail of the day’s business ‘Was gone into by the President. I dgn’t blame the blic for censuring the directors. There has been so Many reputations shipwrecked lately that @ panic has come upon the pubiic, but I believe that there are some honest men loft yet in beth cities. I should be sorry to think otherwise,” NO OUTSIDE RING USING THE COMPANY'S FUNDS. “It is scarcely fair to ask you, but, as you have been indirectly charged with it in the Vege there is less need of delicacy im putting the question. Was there an outside ring of the Board that made use of the Trust Company for their private enricu- sment?”” “No, there was not that Iam aware of. I had a little money deposited here. I have never had, beyond my dividends, one dollar from this institu- dion. I did not wantit. Ihave other means of in- vestment, and I do not believe that there is any truth in the statement that knowledge obtained here as directors has been used in antagonism to | tue interests o/ the ‘trust, and that the funds of the company have been used for that end.” Ethelbert 8. Mills’ Will. In the Surrogate’s Office yesterday the will of Ethelbert 8, Mille was presented for provate. The foliowing is the will and accompanying docu- ments :— J, Etheibert 8.

Yesterday John Pritt, the sailor who deserted ‘from the Russian vessel Walhalta, was brought be- fore Commissioner Stilwell for the purpose of en- vering upon the examination, but it was found that the papers im the case had been taken away inthe ship, After evidence of the ifentity of the prisoner ‘nad been given there was an adjourn- ment for the purpose of-awaiting the recovery of the papers. John 5. Morehead, alias ‘Blinker Murphy,” was brought before Commissioner Shields yesterday on acharge of having had in his possession counter- feit aity-cent stamps, representing a sum of $105.

The defendant was held in $5,000 bail for examination by the Commuis- sioner, It is stated that, in expectation of the release of Cari Vogt, the alleged Belgian murderer, in a day or two, irom the custody of United States Marshal Fisk, an order of arrest against bim has been issued in the Supreme Court and placed in the hands of Clerk of Arrests Judson Jarvis, for execu- tion, to recover the property, bonds, 4<., which. it is claimed, Vogt had stolen.

The Court opened yesterday with a calendar of some fifty-pine cases, The prisoners mostiy pleaded guilty, and received sentences of three months each in the Penitentiary. Joseph 8, Brown, of 250 West Thirty-seventh street, charged his servant, Mary Culkin, who had been in his employ only one » With stealing @ quantity of children’s cloth- ing. Mr. Brown ascertained since that her charac- ter was bad, she having a namber of aliases. Mary was sent to the Penitentiary for six months. Stealing Gas. Isaac Reinheimer, of 37 Essex street, was placed at the bar, charged by Hiram L. Haight, inspector for the Mutual Gaslight Company, with deirauding the company of gas by secretly making a connec- tion with the company’s mains. ‘he meter had beer so manipulated as to indicate the amount of gas consumed in the store, but not in the rooms above. Reinheimer endeavored to establish a de- fence and called witnesses. The evidence, how- ever, Roved unsatisfactory, and Reinheimer was fined $50, Pupil Versus Pedagogue. Theodor Fischel is a boy of some ten years, who attends a private school in Third street, near ave- nue ©, kept by Sigismund Zettler. On the 14th inst. Theodor was somewhat unruly, and, having been taken in hands by the master, was beaten about the head and shoulders witha whip. Theo- dor promptly sought the police court 4a person, and, showing his bruises, had Sigismund arrested. The latter was arraigned yesterday for trial at the Special Sessions. The boy was severely cross-ex- amined by Mr. Hammel, counsel for the prisoner, who elicited the fact that Theodor was an unman- eaole youth and indulged in lan; fe anythin; bt SSR a bee his tutor, ihr. Zettier was ed $1, TOMBS POLICE COURT, Robbery While Drugged. Tillie Hanrieffo, of 659 Eleventh avenue, was ar- rested yesterday by Officer Martin Fitzsimons, of the Fourth precinct, and brought before Justice Fowler, at the Tombs, on a charge of grand:larceny. The complainant, Mrs. Margaret Hitchcock, also of 659 Eleventh avenue, alleges that on the 9th o1 No- vember she and the prisoner were drinking to- gether, when the latter drugged the complainant's liquor, and, while under the influence of the opiate, ropbed her of $46. She then disappeared and Mrs, Hitchcock saw no more of her until yes- terday. Jonanna Reineck testified that on the day mentioned she saw Mrs. Hitchcock’s pocketbook in the possession of Tillie. The latter was held for examination. City Marshals on Their Muscle. A case of alleged outrage by one of the city mar- shals through a deputy was brought to the notice of Justice Fowler yesterday. The exercise of un- Warrantable powers by these funetionaries has lately become even more frequent than usual. It secms that one Marshal Patrick Daily held an exe- cution for $267 against Levi Maybie, Jr., of 79 Elizabeth street. According to Mr. Maybie’s statement. made through Adolph Levinger, his counsel, & man named Hogan, acting under the execution, entered the place and denied the owner any access whatever to his premises. On attempting to enter he was throttled, as alleged, by the man Hogan, who pushed him out and threatened to shoot him, A disturbance aris- ing, Oficer Monahan interfered and arrested both parties and carried them before Justice Fowler. The Marshal, Daily, ovina in behalf of nis deput; and deported himself in such @ ruflanly and inso- jent manner as to cali forth @ severe reprimand irom the Court. Justice Fowler listened to him patiently an¢ with characteristic equanimity, but ‘was at last forced to rebuke him in plain terms and threaten him with punishment if he did not desist, A complaint was taken against Hogan, and he was held tn $800 to answer. Robbing an Emigrant. ‘William Wess, an expressman at Castle Garden, was arrested, charged by an emigrant named Richard Hallenbach with robbing him of a pocket- book containing $300, Hallenbach stated that he engaged Weas to carry his baggage and on reach- ing nis destination he bearoned ior his pocketbook and it was missing.

Attorney General Williams’ Opinion om the Question of the Extradition of the Belgian Murderer—A Chapter on Treaties and Treaty Stipulations—European Criminals and American Protection — Judge Blatchford’s Deci- sion Reversed. Wasurnaror, D.'©,, July'22, 1873, Attorney General Williams to-day transmitted to Acting Secretary of State J. ©, B. Davis his of- cial optnion in the case of Carl Vogt, a Prussian citizen, charged with murder, arson and robbery, committed in Brussels, and # fugitive in the United States. The question submitted to the Attorney General was, “Can the German government right- jully demand the surrender of the fugitive under the treaty of June 16, 18527 The following is the opinion of Mr. Williams, answering the question in the negative:— THE ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OPINION. DEPARTMENT OF soem} WAsHINUTON, July 1873, Hon. J. C. B. Davis, Acting Secretary of State:— Sir—I have the honor to acknowledge the re- ceipt of your communication of the 7th inst., in witch you submit for my official opinion the fol- lowing question:—Carl Vogt, a Prussian citizen, charged with the commission of the crimes of mur- der, arson and Topbeyy, committed in Brussels, in the Kingdom of Belgium, te a fugitive in the United States. Can the German vernment under the provisions of the Treaty for Extradition for Oriminais, concluded between the United States and Prussia and other States, June 16, 1872, right- fally demand the surrender by this government of the fugitive Vogt, in order that he may be tried and punished in Prussia for the offence which he is charged to have committed in Belgium? Those parts of the preamble and treaty applica- ble to this question are as follows: Preamble,—Whereas it is found expedient, for the better administration of justice and the prose- cution of crime within the territories and jurisdic- tion of the parts respectively, that persons com- mitting certain heinous crimes, being fugitives from justice, should, under certain circumstances, be reciprocally delivered up; and also to enume- rate such crimes explicitly. And whereas the laws and constitution of Prus- sia and other German States parties to this con- vention forbid them to sarrender their own citi- zens to a foreign jurisdiction, the government of the United States, with @ view of making the cen- vention strictly reciprocal, shall be held equally free from obligation to surrender citizens of the United States, ARTICLE 1.—It is agreed that the United States and Prussia and the other States of the Germanic Confederation included in, or which may hereafter accede to this convention, shall, upon mutual requisitions by them or their Ministers, oMcers or authorities respectively made, deliver up to justice all persons who, being charged with the crime of moarder, or assault with intent to commit murder, piracy or arson, or robbery or forgery, or the utterance of forged papers, or the fabrication or circulation of counterfeit money, whether coin or paper money, or the embezzlement of public money, committed within the jurisdiction of either party, shall seek an asylum or shall be found within the territories of the other. WHAT GERMANY CLAIMS, You state’ that the surrender of Vogt is claimed by Germany on the ypecand that he is a Prussian and a subject of the Emperor of Germany; that by the law of Prussia, at the date of the conclusion of the extradition treaty, between the United States aud Prussia and other German States, léth of June, 1852, @ Prussian subject who committed certain crimes, among which those with which Vogt is charged are included, within the territory of another nation, and beyond the territories of Prussia, was nevertheless subject to tried and punished in Prussia. This is also now the law of the German Empire. The following appears to be the only point im controversy :—Whether or not, according to the true intent and meaning of 8 treaty the crimes committed by Vogt in the Kingdom of Belgium were committed within, the jurisdiction of Ger- many. To affirm that the jurisdiction of Germany, by virtue of its own laws forthe punishment of crimes, extends over the territory of Belgium, is necessarily to hold that the same juris- diction extends to France, Great Britain and the United States, and indeed to every nation and country of the world. Manifestly the words “com mitted within the jurisdiction’? imply that the crimes named in the treaty may be committed without the jurisdiction of parties thereto; but if the crimes committed in Belgium were committed within the jurisdiction of Germany, then it follows, as Belgium is as independent of German; as any other nation, that it is impossible for crimes to be committed outside of the German Empire, I think, too, that the treaty clearly contemplates that the fugitive claimed must be @ person escaping trom the juris- diction of the Rare, making the claim to the juriadiction of the other party, bien grt | two distinct and independent jurisdictions. But, if the claim of Germany is correct in this case, Vogt is a8 much within her jurisdiction now as he was when the crimes charged upon him were commit- ted; for the laws ander which the claim is made have as much force within the United States as they have in Belgium. The laws of Germany, which provide jor the punishment there of crimes com- Mitted elsewhere by her subjects, imply ex necesst- tate, as a condition for the exercise of that power, that such guilty subject must come or be conveyed from a foreign place or jurisdiction where the crimes are committed to seme place where they can be taken or received and held by the German authorities. Germany has an unquestioned right to punish her subjects if she chooses for crimes committed in Belgium or the United States; but it would not be proper, thergfore, to say that Belgium and the United States are within her jurisdiction; but it would be roper to say that she made provisions to punish er subjects for crimes committed without as well as within her jurisdiction. I am quite clear that the words “committed within the jurisdiction,” a8 used in the treaty, do not refer to the personal Nabilities of the criminal, but to locality. lo- cus , the place where the crime i8 commit- ted, must be within the jurisdiction of the party demanding the fugitive. Stress is put “upon the supposed difference eaning of the words “territory” and “jurisdiction,” and it is argued that the latter is more comprehensive than the former term. This is not necessarily, but proba- bly so; but it does not follow that’ Belgium ts within the jurisdiction of Germany. All nations have jurisdiction beyond their physical boundaries, Vessels upon the high seas and ships-of-war every- where are within the Aantionsin of the nation to which they belong. Limited jurisdiction by one nation upon the territory of another is SOMETIMES CEDED BY TREATY, as appears from the treaties between the United States, Turkey, China, Siam and other ers. Constructive jurisdiction may possibly exist in special cases arising in barbarous countries or un- Inhabited places, so that effect can be given to the word “jurisdiction” as .meaning more than terri- tory, without holding that Germany has jurisdic- tion over crimes committed in Paris, London, or Washington, Local claims or definitions cannot be allowed to ped this case, When nations discuss and treat of their respective jurisdictions they do not refer to these duties and ‘responsibili- ties which a government imposes upon its own citi- but they contemplate those portions of the ear! nd places upon its surface where they have Tespectively sovereign Power, or, in other words, e right of government, To recognize the claim of Germany in this case .would establish a prece- dent that ba 2 jead to serious international com- Plications, We bave NO EXTRADITION TREATY WITH BELGIUM, but we have with Great Britain, like that under consideration. Suppose Vogt had committed th crime with which he is charged in England inated of Belgium, aud the British authorities contem- Serine with Germany had demanded his ex- radition om that account. Could the United Btal deny that the crimes were committ 4 withth the jurisdiction of Great Britain,” ant hot “within the jurisdiction of Germany?’ Could not Great Britain fusty complain if after the mur- der of her m and the destraction of her property bY the fugittve, her claims to him for the purpose of justice should be dened by the United States, and he should be turned over for triat to Germany, where there ts no evidenes of his it, and where his friends and sym) thizers, if has any, may be supposed to be.. Low writers nerally define the jurisdiction of a Court to DO he power to hear and determine a cause; and it is argued that, as by the laws of Germany her Courts have power to hear and determine the case of vont therefore his crimes were committed within her jmrisdiction. One conclusive an- ewer to this view is tnat the word “jurisdiction” in the treaty is not used with refer- ence to governmental power over the subjects of judicial procedure, but with reference to the territory and 8 in which that wer may be exercised. Again, the Courts of Ger- many have never had the power to hear and determine the case of Vogt, Jurisdiction over the subject is one thing that is confer- red by law; = jurisdiction over the person is another. That isa fact which has never existed in this case. Whether the Courts of Germany will or will not hereafter acquire jurisdiction 1 v7 case depends upon the facts hereafter to .

Chief Justice Cockbi in his opinion, thought that the term “jurisdiction” meant the area, whether by land or water, over which the law of a country pre- vails, and said that it is admitted that a shipis part of the territory of the State, or at all events that this ship—referring to the one on which piracy was committed—was within the jurisdiction of the United States, so as to come wi the statute. ‘Thomas Allsop, a British subject, was charged as @n accessory before the fact to the murder ofa Frenchman in Paris in 1858, and escaped to the United States, and as he was punishable therefor by the laws of Great Britain, juestion as to whether he could be demanded by Great Britain of the American government under THE EXTRADITION TREATY OF 1842 ‘was submitted to SirJ. D., Harding, the Queen’s Advocate, the Ateorney, and Solicitor General, Sir Fitzroy Kelly, since Chief Baron of the Exchequer, ana Sir Hugh Cairns, since Lord Chancellor, an they recorded their judgment as follows:- “We are of the opinion that’ Allsop is.not a person charged with the crime of murder committed within the sarcioton of the British Crown, within the mean- ing of the Treaty of 1842, and that his extradition cannot properly be demanded of the United States under that treaty,” (Forsyth’s cases, p; 308) This is a decision exactly in point and of high authority. Phillimore, in his work on ‘International Law” (volume 1, page 482), says:—‘‘There are two cir- cumstances to be observed which occur in these and all other cases of extradition—first, that the country demanding the criminal must be the coun- try in which the crime is committed; second, that the act done on account of which his extradition is demanded must be considered as a crime by both States,” Wharton, in his work on the “Confilct of Laws” (section 951), says:—“The only admissable restric- tion of the term jurisdiction to treat it as con- vertihle with country, and to hold that no requisition lies for an offence not committed with- in the sonntey. of, the requiring State,” and this view is not without support in those expressions of the treaties which speak of the as fugitives, and as deeking an asylum in the State in which the requisition is le, tmp lyin , 8 16 were, @ change of country. id Dudley Field, in his “Outlines of an International Code,” speak of an article pronosed in extradition, says the arti- cle, in its present form, defines THE RIGHT OF EXTRADITION, extendin, Die ee crimes lemanding desirable to extend the inst the law ofa nation com- jurisdiction, which it would have pr if the offender comes within its jurisdiction. Attorney General Lee, in construin; the twenty-seventh article of the treaty of 17! with Great Britain, says that it was confined expressly to persons who are charged with murder or forgery committed within the jurisdiction of either nation and who seek refuge in another, meaning their territorial jurisdiction respective!

Our Extradition Treaty of 1 with France provides for the aehvery ng of persons charged with certain crimes committed within the jurisdiction of the requiring party, and Attorney General Qusbing held that A REQUISITION BY THE FRENO® GOVERNMENT upon the United States for a fugitive under this treaty must show that the crime was committed by the fugitive while eer sp France (8, \n- fons, 218). The Courts in this country have held that, under section 2, article 4, of the sti- tution, providing for the reclamation of one State bog another for fugitives trom justice, ie requisition must show that the crime was committed within the territory of the requiring State (3 i cise ribet Sanford, 701). I have carefully read the elaborate opinion of Judge Blatchiora, upholding the jurisdiction in this case transmitted in your letter, but, with difidence and regret, I am compelled to dissent from his views, They do not gre to me to be sound in principle sustaines by authority. Able writers have contended that there was a recipro- cal obligation. upon nations to surrender fagitives from justice, though now it seems to be generally agreed that this is altogether a matter of comity. But, st is to be presumed, where there are treaties upon the subject tha’ tives are to be surrendered only in cases and upon the terms specified in such treaties. Oonformably to what is above stated Imake a negative answer to your question. I have the honor, &c., GEORGE H. WILLIAMS, Attorney General.

Intererting Revelations Concerning the Murder—Lizzte Lloyd King Unbosome Herself to a Lady Acquaintance at the Raymond Street Jail, Lizzie Lloyd King, alias Kate Stoddard, the mzr- deress of Charles Goodrich, continues to enjoy pretty good general health and apparently a con- science overburdened with sorrow at her Summer reaidence, the Raymond Street Jail. In conversa- tion with a lady the other day she exhibited the locket which she constantly wears about her neck and showed her the inscription engraved on the inside of the cover:—®*Tnursday morning, March 20, 1878.” Kate snowed her visitor a small par- ticle of congealed blood in the ‘case, and remarked, “I had a little left after I swallowed that in the presence of Chief Campbell, but soma one opened my locket and lost my last treasure out. I am sosorry, Ihave tried hard to find it, It was all had.’ Speaking of Miss Palm, she expressed a liking tor her, a8 she is a good woman, and if she was his idea of character she (Kate) wanted to talk to her. She sald, “1 AM SORRY FOR THE PAST; 80 sorry. But [ loved Charlie, and 1 would have tried to be anything for his sake. Yes,Ididtry. I measured existence by his love for me, and I would have done anything for the sake of his love. Had I known that he loved another and wanted her I Would have gone.’? When asked whether she had faith in the fature Kate replied, “Yes, Do you think’ my little baby lives there? lt was only five months, but the little one was mine, It was a little girl, and its little hand rested on its face. I did not want to lose it and that abortion was so awful It was wrong, too, and it changed me from what I had been before, If he had let my baby live, 1 could have stood it; my little baby! loved it so from the first, and I thought all along that Cnarlie loved it too. But I had to give it up, and—oh! I cannot tell how the cold entered my heart then. It’s all cine now; but I cannot help wishing it had lived. hen the baby would come, I thought to myself I would have a ‘new tie‘in life, and it would make it happier for us both, But Idid not know I was to go; that I must get out and be lost. I could bear ee jecrexinie, for Charlie’s sake; but when I found OHARLIE HAD TAKEN FROM ME MY BABE and was going to put me out of his ai ag I thought I was surely some! else; it could not be. It Was so different from what he said. I just suited his nature, he said, and was his other self; and he would show me how to do, and oh, I could have been all that he wanted me tobe, But he hi family pride, and he let it kill my child and turn me on the world, ruined in everything. I wanted back my y then, and I told him so. took the letter that I wrote to his father, and I handed it to him myself. If he had heeded my plea, listened to the truthiul story in it, it would not have been so with me, I am sure. And at the inquest, when he looked at me as if he hated me me; I felt that {had done my best to make a friend of him. 1saw he was glad I was suffering, but he: knew I suffered when I wrote him that letter that time. Oh! how I tried, after 1t was all over, to be strong and go home|, But I could not tell my mother. Yet it is foolish, but, 1 must say it, I WOULD RATHER SEE MY MOTHER NOW than any other being on earth. I should so Jove to feel her close to me once more!’ Miss King remarked that she was at the funeral in Cumberland street, and stood by i the comin was brought out. “There was§a rope, or a cord, lying on the ground, and when I looked down my foot was in it, and it was in the shape of a noose! But I talked to a woman there, who was trundlin; @ child in its wagon, and she talked to me about there being no likelihood ef the murderer ta caught.” She said she did not believe in Spiritual- ism, but that “Charlie” wanted her to go away and not tell the truth; it would do no good; but she couldn’t leave Brooklyn. “I believe in the TRUTHS THAT CHRIST TAUGHT,” sho said; ‘I wish I had known better how to follow them. When tt was all over I thought I would go home to my mother. But she would then kgow something and would ask me, and it would Snly have pained me. Just before the arrest I had found stren; to go, and something seemed to hurry me to leave quick.” Subsequently Kate re- marked, “I wish women who have to work for their bread were better paid. They ought to have better wages. Bad thoughts come to the starved and forsaken. I went twice to the Women’s Home—once with Charlie and once alone—and since then Ihave been once, and I thought the lady there would know me, but she didn’t. I wanted a room with quiet people, but I couldn’t get one, and I leit.” In reply to a question as to whether she expected anything but queen she said, ‘1 was never made to follow any law that was not plain tome. If Iam to be judged it will be the right decision, no doubt.” ROSCOR NOT ARRESTED. ‘There is no truth in the roe circulated by one of the dailies yesterday to the effect that the long- sought-after e, the mysterious Spaniard, who is supposed to have been an accomplice of Miss wee in the murder of Goodrich, had been arrested in New York and taken to Brooklyn. Commissioner Gordon stated to the writer yesterday that there was no-occasion to conceal from the public the ar- rest of Roscoe, and as soon as such an event occurred it would at once be communicated to the press. Lizzie Meets Her Father. Yesterday Mr. Isaac B. King, father of Lizzie, reached Brooklyn, from Plymouth, Mass, in company with his son-in-law and 0. T. Gray, of the firm of Gray & Davis, attorneys and counsellors-at-law, Hyde Park. They immediately repaired to the Raymond Street Jail, and, on stating who they were, Mr. Irish, one of the keepers, admitted them. They were taken to the female prison, and Lizzie, not knowing who the visitors were, turned her back on beets) approaching footsteps. When Mr. Irish unlocked the door of the cor- ridor the gentlemen stepped in. As they did o Lizzie turned and recognized her father. She threw her arms about his neck, kissed him and then they walked off to vi other end of the cor- ridor together, where they had long and earnest conversation. Counsellor Gray and Lizzie’s brother- in-law took a walk abont the jail for about three apy) leaving Lizzie and her father together. Mr. King is an intelligent looking man, but, it is sata, is much changed since hearing of his daughter's, trouble. On leaving the jail he said he would re- turn again to-day. THE JERSEY PITOHFORK SAVAGERY. The Wounded Man Still Alive, But Faint Hepes of His Recovery. Contrary to all expectation Isaac Logan, the man who had a pitchfork plunged into his abdo- men in three places on Wednesday by Michael Dorn, alias Kegrns, in Louden township, near Rahway, N.3., as fully reported in yesterday’s HERALD, still lives, and i¢ is now faintly hoped that, sould inflammation not set in, the poor fel- low ‘may yet cheat the callous-hearted newspaper mn and save thesemi-idiot Kearns irom a trial for tTurder. Yesterday he breathed with comparative ease, but still his life hangs on the slenderest thread. Kearns is still held in custody by Chies of Police Wright, awaiting the result. MARRIAGES AND DEATHS.
