4 oe sEGietbcide Aakee “THE PEDLER MURDER. —_——— Confeesion cf Oné of the Col- ored Assassins. 4. 7, EPSP DETAILS OF THE CRIME. ‘The Fordham Police Court was crowdea with anxious spectators yesterday morning, when Justice Wheeler ‘took bis seat for the purpose of hearing further testi- mony against the three negroes—Charles Westen, Will- jam Thompson and William Ellis—arrested on suspicion of murdeting the Jew pedier in Lydig’s Woods, West Farms, As the cbain of strong circumstantial evidence ‘n une hands of the police authorities had been slowly but sarely circumscribing the chances by which she prisoners could hope to escape the consequences of their terrible crime, the anxiety of the citizens to see the accused parties and to watch the proceedings was intense, as no such atrocious murder bas been com- «mitted in that section within the memory of the oldest resident thereof, Not one who entered the court room, however, expected to hear the extraordinary develop. ments which transpired when the authors of the tragedy told the blood-cusdling story of the poor pedler’s tak- ing off, and with ag much apparent indifference as ‘though they were describing the manner in which a stolen hog had been butchered by them. 1t is but fair to state that the Metropolitan Police have displayed a most commendable energy in “working up”? ‘this caso, their efforts, since the discovery of the mur- dered man’s remains, having been exerted night and day towards the discovery of the guilty parties. To Detective John McGowan, of the Nineteenth precinct, Qs due the credit of “bringing in” the now confessed ‘murderers, Thompson and Ellis, whom he found last Tuesday afternoon, tramping among the wilds of the town of Westchester, which borders on Long Island Sound They are both low sized VILLANOUS PRULOWS, as black af the interiorof a coal mine, and at first in-¢ formed the detective that they were ‘poor sailors” in search of employment; but he mistrusted their state- ment, and, fortunately for the ends of justice, brought them to the Tremont police station. Is will be recol- ected that on being searched at the latter place anew pocketbook, similar to those left in the pedier’s pack, was found on each of the negroes. Captain McDonnell, pf the Eighth precinct, has also acted a meritorious part im arresting Weston, whom he cleverly captured, as de- scribed in the Henap of yesterday. The last named official also effected another very important arrest ata Jate hour on Friday night. Having known that Weston (who is known in this affair ag the negro with a white eye) consorted with a white girl, the Captain Went all b® energy to the task of asver- ‘taining her whereabouta He questioned Wes- ton about her, but tho prisoner, while pretending to aid in finding her, endeavored to lead the Captain astray by telling him'that her name was Jennie and in other adroit ways trying to throw him off her track. Captain McDonnell, liowever, continued hia efforts until they were rewarded with success, in his finding Kathe. rine Gugen, the white mistress of Weston, at No. 26 Sullivan street, near Grand street. It appears that the official named had information yesterday that Weston | desired to make a “statement,” but his frstanxiety was wv SECURE THE GIRL KATE, ‘whose testimony be had abundant reason to believe swould go far toward criminating her murderous para- ‘mour, independent of what the latter might say in re- gard to the crime. At the inquest on Friday night Assistant District At- lead mnie ‘meant to do; he then struck RU": in some place on the | seemed like the sg bg the grave clods oe hia forehead; Thompson and Billy then picked the-man up and threw him over fence and then dragged him serena the woods, they came to a lar pen fore hap nae te him several blows on with hip club; cuaaree ov would having nothing to do ; then Thompson got a large sized stone and threw iton the man’s head, while Eilts bad hig foot on the man’s throat; the man raised up his head and chest, with his face covered with blood, and said, ‘What do you mean to do with me? are you going to murder me?’ Thompson then struck him on the head with @ stone, and he then fell back in; the man commenced to baltoo, and Ellis said to Thompson, “Give mea knife TL stop the son of ab—b!” Thompson Ellis a four-biaded knife, tipped with silver (I d know it was silver, Dut it was some metal opened the knife and MADE THREE JAMS AT THE MAN'S NECK; ‘he cut his neck, and, | think, cut his jagular vein; the dlood flowed; Thompson then went through the man’s pockets; he took two boxes of matches, some chewing tobacco, @ comb and his pocketbook; the pockatbook now produced ig the same ‘Thompson took from the man’s pocket; it had alot of papers and money in it; Ellis then went over and untied the bundle; he looked for a pair of pants and there were none in it; Ellis got two new pocketbooks out of the pedler’s basket; Thompson then went to the lower end of the woods and hallooed to us to “Come on;’’ I believe Ellis took an anderslirt from the bundle before leaving. Here the negro was questioned as follows by Assistant District Attorney Herring:— Q Did the man cry out or make any noise when Thompson struck him onthe head withastone? A. No, sir, Dut be wasn’t — dead then, Q How was it after Elis Jjabbed him in the throat? A. He drew three long breaths after Ellis put the knife in his throat; then I didn’t see any more life in him. Q Now what happened after Bilis took the shirt and two pocketbooks? A. I was out on the edge of the road while it was happening; I could see all they were doing, though Ellis came over to where I was and offered me a pocketbook, but I wouldn’t take it; be then gave it to Thompon; it had a little catch on it; then Thompson said, “Let us walk on in 6 @ «ohburry;?) we walked down the road two or three miles, until we came to a lot enclosed by a@ stone fence; there was an opening in the fence large enough to aliow a horse and cart to go through, and we went in and sat down on a stone; Ellis then took out the pocketbook; there was 4 lot of shinplasters—I mean currency—and notes in the pocketbook; [think it all amounted to $14 75; Ellis, Thompson and myself sat on a rock; Bilis asked me if [ wanted any of it and I said no; didn’t take any of the money at that time; just then there Was a man passing through the lot and Els HID THE POCKET AND PAPERS between his khees; they afterward tore up the papers and threw them behind the rock; we all three left the Jot together and went down the road; we went into a small tavern that stood on the right hand side and had something to drink; Ellis gave me @ five dollar bill to pay for the drinks; I paid for them, and when going out of the place I gave Ellis the change, $4 70; we then went down the road, and across the e bridge to the city; that night I went to No. 16 Grand street, and remained there during the night; was there when I was arrested; 1 bave nothing more to say about the matter. On being farther questioned by Mr, Herring, Weston stated that Thompson had on a pair of overalls at the time of the killing and that he took them off and threw them in the woods; they didn’t bring the club out of the wooda, William Thompson, one of the accused parties, was then called, and, in angwer to questions put by Justice Wheeler, stared that he wag a native of Mary- land, twenty-seven years of age; was a sea faring man by occupation, and hved when ashore at No. 57 Thompson street. Having been cautioned as to the importance to himself of anything he might say, the prisoner made a rambling statement, admit- ting that he had participated in the murder, but en- deavored to throw the chief share of the crime on Weston, William Ellis, on being arraigned, said he was a na tive of Maryland, and a ship's cook by occupation. He also admitted’ his participation in the crime, and aid that Weston planned it and led his into it, ‘At the conclusion of the testimony, Justice Wheeler fully eommitted all three of the prisoners to answer a torney Herring, after hearing the testimony of a doy ‘who ‘saw the three prisoners taking a drink in a mall hotel on the Boulevard and in the vi- cinity of West Farms village shortly after the murder was committed, and observing ‘that the witness identified all three, with the excep- tion of Ellis, who, the witness Said, wore a lighter shirt, concluded that be would probe the discrepancy a little further. Accordingly, having taken Ellis into an adjoining room, Mr. Herring found, upon examination, ‘that the woollen shirt which the prisoner had on bore the same manufacturer's stamp as was observed on ‘hose remaining i the pedier’s bundie. He then took ‘Weston aside and intimated to him that further conceal- ment was — as Eitis had one of the murdered man’s shirts op him at that moment. This intelligence seemed to trouble Weston, and this morning, before the court assembied, he asked one of the turnkeys to inform Mr. Herring that he wished to make a state- ment of the murder. The gentleman named called shortly afterward at the cell where Weston was con- ‘fined, and Jearned from the latter that he was present cwhen Thompson and Ellis murdered the pedler. As will be found below, Weston subsequently requested ‘to be allowed to testify in court, which was granied. It will be observed that the informant endeavors to excul- himself from all participation in the murder, throwing the criminality on Thompson and Ellis, who 4m turn boldly acknowledge the participation in the crime and say that WESTON WA9 THR INSTIGATOR, and took the most prominent part im killing the 2° ‘After the opening of the court, Captain McDonnell iuformed Justice eler that be had arrested and Drought with bim an important female witness, who would, if sears tell hér own story. This person was Catherine Guyger, who, on being duly sworn, testilied as follows A WIDOW's TALE 1 ama widow; live at present in Sullivan street, No. 24; have lived at No. 16 Grand street last week; lived there about a week; Charles Weston, the prisoner, now here, lived with me; 1 was bis mistress; Weston left the House on Wednesday evening a week’ ago and re- turned last Saturday about dark; when be returned, William Thompson, now in court, was wih him: Tuompson stayed ‘all night; the next day (Sunday) Wiliam © Ellis, the prisoner now in court, came to the house and stayed all _ night? ‘Thompson stayed two days in all; Weston was there all’ the ume; Thompson said he had ‘been in the country, and said he would have brought someupples if be had anything to carry them in; Thompson and Ellis teft ny house last Monday evening, and wanted Weston to go with them; they said’ they were going back ‘on the same road; Westou refused to go, and they said they would go alone.

THE FUNERAL OF LESTER SYKES YESTERDAY AT ‘WEST SPRINGFIELD—-THE ADDRESS OF REV. E. N. POMERO}—SUGGESTIONS FOR THB DIGGING OF WELLS, Srrivorixiy, Mass. , Sept, 25, 1875. The deep and very general interest felt throughout thie community in the melancholy fate of Lester Sykes, who was buried by the caving in of a well at West Springfield on Wednesday, and whose dead body was only recovered yesterday noon, was again attested this afternoon by the large assembly present at the funeral services, held in the old White Meeting House, near the burying ground and the river. Rev. E. N. Pomeroy, the pastor of the church, and who was the first man to go down into the well and talk with Mr. Sykes after the acci- dent, conducted the services, aud his remarks were appropriate and timely. ADDRESS OF MR. POMEROY. After referring to the unusual shock produced on the community by the terrible manner of the unfortunate man’s death, he proceeded to draw out these lessons :— Fgrst, the need of something being done to prevent such accidents in the future. He said:—“I wish here and now to protest against any person being al- Jowed to construct such @ mantrap as that in which Mr. Sykes lost his life. No incompetent person should be allowed to dig a well beyond acertain depth. Indeed, it is my conviction, in view of the accidents of this nature that occur not unfrequently throughout the country, that the whole matter of well digging should be regulated by law, that only licensed persons should be permitted to do this work, and they only in a certain definite prescribed manner. No man should be allowed to put his own life in peril; he certainly should pot be permitted to lead another to destruction. Another lesson is how to proceed another time in such an emergency. Having wit- nessed the affair from first to last, and bearing testimony to the patience, energy and even heroism of those having the matter in charge, and, indeed, of all who took part, I have these suggestions to offer for any fature exigency of this kind. SUGGESTIONS FOR THE FUTURE. First, that as soon as possible a council of a few of those most competent w advise be calied and some person be selected as aleader, and that his plan be adopted and carried out Second. that euch a force of men and such a enpply of material and utensils be promptly furnished, that the work shall not be suspended @ moment until the object be accomplished. It has been said that the work should not stopped the first night This is true, as the event proved that the state of things just ken was such that any other course geeined impracticable, The men were exhausied> the situation was exceedingly dangerous; but that the man was thought to be dead’ was not an excuse, the same effort should be made to extricate & man who nay be living a8 to save one who is known to be alive. He should have the benetit of the doubt, living with Kate Guyger, at No. 16 Grand street; am now @ prisoner here, and know that an examination is being | heid to uvestigate a murder; I wished to be sworn | and testify impiny owo behalf’ as a witness; 1 know | the prisoner now in court, charged, as Wiilam | Thompson; know him to be called. “Dad or “Pop;” also know the o man now in court,’ charged, as” William’ Silie; dows ‘know | his name; have heard bim called “Willie.” I left New | ‘York in company with them a week ago last Tuesday, | we came up from New York city aiong Third avi nue, and crossed the Third avenue bridge over tue Harlem River; it was the Tuesday aftersvon that wo Jett home we crossed the bridge; we hud met in son street, near Spring street, beiore we io! ‘we agreed to go in the country TO LOOK POR WORK, and I was going to see my sister; after we crossed the Harlem Bridge we took the Boulevard road apd wuik until dark, and then on Tuesday wight we slept in barn; on Wednesday murotng we passed through a v lage and over a small bridge, we went into the woods | and stayed there all day; that. night we slept if a | wagon; the wext mornig (Thursday) Thompson aud Klis ‘went to a big house and got something | fo eat, and 1 went up the — road; | they joined me after they got something to eut and we weut up the road and weut in an orchard; wo tlept in the busbes on Thursday night; next morning | we went through a short road and through a | and stopped at a house, where we asked soine eat from # woman; ther we.went on aud caro lage; it was the same village we had been in by caw nan silting OD aw eating crackers aud cakes; be had a bundie and Wat basket, wow in court 1 spoke to him aud said, “Good moruing;’’ be re Dlied, and said, “Good ‘morning; Kile aud my. self ‘went and’ got some water; then we all ent up the road together and catue to a wood on both | ides of the road; we all sat down ow the rocks; we re. | mained there a \ittie while and aman came along wit a wagon; | asked what he bad; he said, ‘Son J said to bim I would like ‘to enjoy one, and Saveiua some; | am now epeaking of Friday morn. | jen tho then went into the woode a few moments and left Thompson and Ellis sitting on the rocks, | could | Just see the pedier coming aloug the rond us 1 went into the woods; Ellis, the mau now in court, whom I imew | as Willie, HAD A cLUR; on the larger end it was as big as 4 man's fist; the rest was about the size of @ man’s wrist; |t was a piece of a tree; Ellis had the lub since Monday; wen 1 caine back from the woods Thompson aud iis were talking with the pedier, and we all asked him for a chew of to. bacco; the pedier was on the right hand mde of the road going to West Farms; the pedier sat down to reat imself and took his basket off bis heck, but did not take hix bundle off; it was tied around his neck; be lighted @ briarwood pipe and smoked abont tive minutes; be then pode’ ye ‘the strap of his basket around bis peck an off; Ellie was slin, his ciub on his Jett shoulder, he bad hold hold of the end of the — I stepped over on the left hand side of the road Greater effort should ba community. This, at least, the lookers on could do. Again, expedition is of great’ moment. If] were to find myself in so frightful a situation I should urge those who were about me to use speedy, though more dan- gerous methods. I would rather perish at once been made to arouse the thau by inches, Another lesson is tuat uo man can tell what is before him, On Wednesday afternoon as drove over that road and cast my eye atthe pile of sand at the well’s mouth, 1 did not dream of the tragedy that was about to be acted. Then it is a merciful Providence that hinders us from knowing our future; for we cowl not prevent the calamities of iife if we could foresee them, and existence would be filled with apprehensions and sorrow to no purpose, but the day of our death may be as beautiful ag any, its sunrise as clear, its promise os fair. Nature never shuddered at any'death agony, eave that of the Reedemer. A tan may advance to the spot where his fate awaits bim with an elastic step and with al ht heart, ‘There are indeed cases of real or appa misgiving, but they are rare and almost always soch alarms are fase, Another lesson is that although | we do not know when it is, there s# a time of death ap- ported for ue all. That day ie Axed and it can neither be passed nor anticipated THE CNCHRTAINTY OF LIPR On Wednewiay aflernoon, between the hours of one and two o'clock, two men came up Elm street, in this village, and turned west, opposite this church; one of them was Lester Bykes, He walketh with his usual elactic step le did not turn to gaze upon the almost unequalled beauty of the scene, #rom this point he bad seen 1 often, apd had no idea but that be should Jook upon ‘it many times more, With little preliminary conversation, as I learn from the sarvivor, the two men proceeded to their place of destination, As they walked over that quiet road toward Amostown they little thought that a few bours later multitudes of men and carriages would burry there, and ali on account of one of them. 11 would seem ae if such an accident could not have happened toroch aman, I know of no stranger thing than that Such ® nan sbould consent to trust himse# in sucdi a place.

CONSOLATION VOR TRE WORKERS, * The reverend gentleman consoled the men who bad labored to rescue Mr. Sykes with the rather ined compliment that notwithstanding their unsuccess and notwithstanding the severe criticisms from all sides upon the method pursued and lack of wisdom, they were, to his mind, heroes. There is still a good deal of fecling over the affair, and although Mr. Pomeroy. and one of Mr Sykes’ » brothers are out with acard to the effect that, in their opinion, no greater effort could have been made than was made, and the plan that was carried out was the wisest Wat, at the time and under the circumstances, seemed to be practicable, the almost universal verdict here is, that, 4s a work Of engincering, it was moss discreditable to Yaakee ingenuity and skill, AMUSEMENTS, LYCEUM THEATRE—‘‘LES DEUX AVEUGLES” AND “MME. BERTRAND.” ‘The Lyceum Theatre last evening was filed with o very fashionable audience to witness ‘Les Deux Aveugles” and “La Rose de St, Flour,” besides a very laughable vaudeyilie, entitled “Mme. Bertrand and Mile, Raton.” The two first named operettas are by the famous composer Offenbach, the master of opéra douffe, and certainly the performance was an unqualified success, Nothing better in the nature of a genre picture could have been delineated on the stage than the two blind men on the quay in the first named perform- ance—one, ag his card described, “blind from birth,” and the other “blind by an accident” The peculiar qualities of MM. Duplan and Darcy as the beggars wore a fine example of the French school of comedy, and so well was their blindness simulated that the sympathies of the audience were at once enlisted, The vandevilie, in which a first appearance of Mille, Lucie Fay took place, was much enjoyed. This lady suffered a trifle Jrom nervousness in singing, but her acting was much to be praised. It was plain to be seen that she is a great accession to the Lyceum company, as in the latter portion of the sprightly trifle she developed unexpected and admirable qual ities of the opéra bouffe order, The part of Archibald, an ex- travagant French lover of the usual type, although much exaggerated by Schmidt, was thoroughly enjoyed by the audience, while the representation of Mile. Dupare was marked by her usual sweeetness and naweté. The closing piece, La Rose de St. Flour,”” was received warmly, and the audience honored the per- formers with frequent recalls, TITIENS. ARRIVAL OF THE GREAT CANTATRICE YESTER- DAY—HER IMPRESSIONS OF AMERICA—WHAT SHE SAYS ABOUT ART. At half-past ten o'clock yesterday morning the Adriatic, having on board Mile, Teresa Titiens, the cele- brated prima donna, was signalled, and, shortly after, the wharf of the White Star line was alive with friends and others anxious to give some sort of a worthy re- ception to one so well known in the musical world, The Adriatic did not reach her dock until three o'clock in the afternoon. In the meantime the Custom House boat Birkbeck put off from the pier, and in her the Hxnaup reporter boarded the big ship in the stream, where she had to wait in consequence of the Celtic not having left her dock onsthe outward passage. On the boat were Mr. Max Strakosch, Mr, J. Harry Maple. son, son of the manager of Her Majesty’s Opera House, London, and his wile; Mr. Harry Palmer, of Booth’s Theatre; Mr. Joell, Mr. ©. Haven, Mr. A. Bliss, Mr, Simmonds and a number of others. As the steamer approached Mlla Titiens was sighted at the side of the vessel, in company with her niece, Mile, Angusta Van Kruls, and Mr. Max Marotack. There was, of course, the usual waving of handker- chiefs, shouting and other signs of welcome, and when the perilous ascent had been made to the Adriatic’s deck still further greetings were in order. Mile, Titiens looked exceedingly weil, and displayed great cordiality in her receptions to the friends and otbers who crowded around her. She was dressed in a becoming costume de voyage, without ostentation, and saluted everybody in a hearty German style, In a short conversation which sensued with the writer Mile. Titiens spoke of the age over as hav- ing been an exceedingly pleasant one, there having occurred but one day which could be called at ail rough, and even this was not uncomfortable. She had been greatly surprised at this, because, az she said:—‘l have been deterred mainly from visiting America so long in the face of a great desire to see the country and know the people solely by my feur at crossing the ocean, quite an extrav- agunt fear I now perceive. When I went to Naples some years ago we had a very strong tempest of three days in crossing the Mediterranean, and I naturally supposed the Atlantic would be a great deal worse. So pleasant was the voyage, indeed, that I almost regret it did not last longer. Still, since’we have seen land, I, of course, have been most anxious to disembark. Tho trip up the Bay has been most beautiful. You possess a magnilicent bay; I have never seen anything like it,” ‘The great cantatrice, who speaks perfect English, went on recording her delight at what she had seen, hke a child escaped from school. The conversation then’ turned on the future, Mile, Titiens asked about the railroads, the hotels, the boats, the love of music 1n the people, the theatres and balls, &c. “I know I shall like America,’’ she said; “I hear the people are so generous and liberal, though, I suppose the events of recent years have altered thatahitue. 1 have heard also of the warm personal feeling tbe Amer- icans take in artists and the kindness shown th their recepuon, I suppose I shall learn a great deal in travel- ling about so great acountry, and, from all I have heard ot your wonderful palace cars, | know I shall gain tn ex- perience and happiness 1 am in the best disposition in the srorld to do my duty to Mr. Strakosch and the publi The steamship was now near the dock, and was being hauled in. The distinguised party afver landing started in carriages for the Everett House, where Mlle, Titiens und her niece are at present stopping. Mile. Titiens received a great many calls last evening, but, being fatigued after the voyaze, did not see any one. To-day she will visit Central rk and some of the country beyond. The Centennial Choral Union will tender Mile. Titiens a reception and serevade on the evening of next Thursday, at the Everett House, DEPARTURE OF CLARK, THE BASSO, Yesterday afternoon, Mr. John Clark, the well Enown basso, who has been connected with the Caroline Rich- ings Opera Troupe and with other musical combina tions throughout the country for sevoral years past, took his departare, on board the White Star line steam- ship Celtic, for Europe. The steamer Fletcher, laden with many friends of the departing vocalist from New York and Brooklyn, accompani the Celtic down the Bay as far as the South ‘west Spit, and amid the waving of bandkerchiets, sing- ing by a glee club and the cheers of his friends @ final adieu was wafted the gentleman thus complimented. John Clark goes to Milan, where he will cultivate his voice under the ablest masters to be found on the Com tinent He expects to be absent for two years, TEN MILES IN HARNESS.
