To rue Epiror or THe Heravo:— Ip your tssue of Tuesday I noticed a communication, under the head of “The Freedman’s Bank,” signed “A. Depositor,” in which the writer indulges in the most unjust and unfounded charges against the present Re- | ceiver of the Third Avenue Savings Bank, Mr. Samuel | H. Hurd, My entire familiarity with the affairs of this | Insutation, and with Mr. Hurd’s management of it since his appointment, prompt me to make this state. ment as an act of justice to him.

HIS LAST WORDS. “THe Fellows in New York Are Guilty.” Lonnow, Feb, 4, 1876: I have received from Bremen the report of the Ger- man police on their examination into the life and crimes of William King Thomas, the “dynamite fend.” If translated in its entirety the report would fill about a page of the Hxraxp in ordinary close type; but as much of tt fs already known to you I shall give in the following only the new results of the German inquirers, ‘The Bremen authorities in making the report public do so with the expressed intention of putting an end to the many false reports which havo gained insertion in the public prints, and with a desire to ailay public curiosity on the subject. They also wish to induce civil authorities, insurance companies and private per- sons to send to them any information they may pos- sess without waiting for a special request. THN OFFICIAL STATEMENT. After describing the manner of transportation of the dynamite to the steamer at Bremerhaven, the report goes on to say that the barrel was delivered by W. K.” ‘Thomas; that \t weighed 450 kilogrammes; that tts con- tents were declared to be caviare, and that it was in- sured with the North German Lloyd Company for the sum of 3,000 marks, 1s was addressed as follows:— STG aera t 2 Qennnnnnrannconasanecerrnee nent) Era] In bonded. St. George's. POCONO RN ROE ROE Te On the afternoon of the 11th of December the cabin steward of the Mosel announced to the police that one of the cabin passengers, an American named Thomas, who bad taken a passage to Southampton, had ‘attempted to commit suicide in his cabin, but had only succeeded in inflicting severe wounds upon himself, in consequence of which he was taken to the hospital Thomas bad arrived by the extra train which brings passengers from Bremen to Bremerhaven, and had not been injured by the explosion, After the catastrophe had taken place, however, he was observed to be very restless and excited on board the ship: He locked nimself in his cabin, and moans being heard in that direction the door was broken open and he was found weltering in his blood. The contents of his trunk lay strewn around, Under the divan was found a small revoiver, from which it was seen two'shots had been fired. Let- ters from his wife were found in his pocket, from which it appeared that his family resided at Streblen, near Dresdon, and that Mrs, Thomas was without money and under the pressure of tradesmen, and also in gréat anxiety in consequence of the unexpectedly long absence of her husband from home, The letters showed, further, that he bad business connections with Messrs, Baring Brothers, of London, and that in former years he had large sums standing to his credit with that firm; but that in July, 1875, bo was indebted to them in the sum of £80, and for ‘this reason a Dill drawn in Ling In S@ptember, 1875, for £110, was not ac- cepted. There was also discovered a receipt of the for, warding department of the steamship company at Bremen, according to which it appeared that on the 25th of November, 1875, he had received a heavy bar- rel, weighing about 500 kilogrammes, which had arrived ‘by the steamer Rhein. The wounded man had about £20in English money and eighty marks, ang had written the following letter to the Captain of the Mosel:— THM LAST LETTRR OF THOMAS. Please send this money you find in my pocket (20 pounds sterling, 80 marks German money). My wife resides at 14 Residenz street, Strehlen, by Dresden. What I havo seen to-day I cannot Mand. W. K. THOMAS, ‘THOMAS’ CONFESSIONS, Thomas died on the afternoon of the 16th December, having since the calamity nearly always behaved as if stunned, although sometimes he showed himself clearly conscious, During the examination by the police he was yery reserved and evasive, and his confessions were only obtained with g®eat difficulty. What he said one day he would deny the next, asseverating that he had not rightly understood the question. The admissions which he made are as follows;—he called himself W. K. Thomas, though his name was really William King Thomson. He was born in 1830, in Brooklyn, and was the son of German parents who emi_ grated from Hamburg, and afterward lived in Virginia, the father of fve children, of whom one was dead: He had in earlier life been captain of a ship, and had in such capacity com- manded the Old Dominion, which at one time be- longed to him. He had run the blockade during the American civil war, was taken prisoner and fled to the South, where he went by the name of Thomas. He was married in St. Louis, and left America eleven years ago for Europe. He attempted to shoot himself because, as he said, he bad lost his fortune by bad speculation. He had received a barrel from America by the steamer Rhein, the vontents of which he had pnt into a newer barrel. This change of barrels was made in the stable of Dr. Floerke in Bremen, and during the transfer the doors were closed. He said the barrel contained pol- ishing paste, packed {mn tin cases, which he had bought in New York from George Moor’s, No, 12 Broadway, and that the barrel was sent to him by Skid- more, the broker, whose person he described very minutely. He (Thomson) had returned to Ger- many by the steamer Frisia. In the barrel which he had packed at Bremen he had placed a partition, in the middle of which was a bole, In one of the spaces he had deposited a kind of clock, which he had purchased from Koch, a clockinaker of Bernbury, and for which he had paid 100 thalers. He had himself placed pow- der around the bole and a spring within the box. CONFUSING CONTRADICTIONS. Later Thomson contradicted the above statements, saying that he was no mechanic; that there was no clock in the barrel; that he had placed the partition whore because he had not enough material to all the space. On being asked afterward the reason for his sending the barrel he would not give any clear information, but frequently inti- mated thet he intended it for purposes of swindling, and that some goods were to be shipped at Southampton. He knew that the contents of the barrel were dangerous; that was all he knew. The “Kerls” in New York had packed it, and they were to share the proceeds with Skidmore, He once admitted that he intended it to explode after ten da; This he also afterward denied, asserting that he knew nothing of the contents of the barrel; that he was not so bad as People thought; that bis conscience did not prick him, “although he knew he must die, He said on one occa- sion that Sdidmore expected to see him im London, at the Charing Cross Hotel, where he (Thomas) was to take the goods. Again he contradicted himself, and said that Skidmore was in-New York; that he expected » letter from him with instrudtions relating to the goods and boxes coming from New York. Skidmore was the only accomplice he named, and he frequently de- nounced him. He spoke frequently of his business connections with Baring Brothers; said that last sum.” mer he had drawn upon them for £100, and was still in connection with them. He also mentioned bis family ry often, especially his children, for whom he seemed tu have a tender regard He displayed no re- morse or penitence, although a number of persons in- jured by the explosion lay around him. His last dis- Unguishable words were, “J Aave been @ thick-head, The fellows in New York are gutlty.” THOMAS’ RARLY HISTORY. ‘The early life of Thomas ts not yet very clearly be- fore us, the American researches not having been com- pleted. The statements of his wife only take us back | A two-horse team, worth $200, belonging to 8. @. Mitchell, of No, 65 West Third street, was sisien from in front of bis residence, to 1866, the year in which ehe first became acquainted With bim as @ rich goutkemen, associating in high Circles, They were married after @ very short acquaintance, and he never told her much of his former life, and she evidently did not evince much snxlety on this point, as recently, during # sevore sickness of her husband, when she asked him who were his relations, in order that she might apply to them im the event of his death, be forbade her te ques- ion him further, She had an idea that his former name was Alexander, which presumption 1s borne out by the fact that a large Latin ‘A’ was tattooed upon hisarm. Mrs. Thomas also thought that his parents were English, and his mother, a Miss Sutherland, had lived up to a recent date at Petersburg, Va Near rela- tives dwelt in New York. s . It 18 not yet sure that this Thomas was identical with the John Thompson who attended Noell’s Commercial School in Osnabruck from Easter, 1854, until Michael- mas, 1855, since the director of that institute is dead, and it is not possible to get the evidence from any of Thomas? fellow scholars. There is a certain resem- blance between the handwriting of the scholar Thomp- sonand the man Thomas. Opposed to this assumption is the fact that the latter could not until lately express himself fluently in German, It is not true that he was born in Bocholt, Westphalia No family of any such name is there known. It is also untrue that Thomas is identical with the Englishman named John Thomp- Son (rect, Lionel Holsworth), who was arrested in Basle in 1866 on a charge of having sunk ships. This man was sent to England, and there sentenced to transportation, He was ten years older than W. K. Thomas, ‘HIS MOVEMENTS POR THE LAST THREE YEARS. Of late years Thomas frequently left his family and made journeys of which his wife knew nothing. He was alone in Paris in 1873, in Prague in 1871, Frank- fort-on-the-Main in 1872, Berlin 1872, Altenbury 1876, Hamburg 1875. In May, 1873, and October, 1874, he was some weeks in Vienna, and at the end of 1870 went to New York, and subsequently in 1875 made other voyages there, always alone, During his residence in Leipsic and Dresden, and especially in the latter place, Thomas associated with Americans, particularly with the members of the Freiberg Mining Academy. All his associates have been found to be men of good repute, and no suspicious intercourse on his part has been de- tected. The supposed complicity of Dr. Michel, of Berlin, has no foundation in fact. This gentleman is a highly esteemed citizen, A HAPPY DOMESTIC LirR, It is said that the domestic life ot the perpetrator of this foul crime was, on the whole, a very happy one, although during recent years he has been suspected of cruelty and ill-behavior toward his wife, and it ts hinted that his place in society in Dresden had lately become a little shaken, Up to 1873 his business con- nections in Germany dre supposed to have been solely with bankers. In 1868 he placed $35,700 with a Leipsic banker, but in 1869 he sent this sum to Messrs. Baring, of London, who were then his bankers. He speculated in French cables to a considerable extent, The amount standing to his credit at the Barings’ was, in July, 1869, $5,641, This was reduced, at the end of 1872, to $2,546, and at the close of 1873 to $1,619, During subsequent years this latter sam has all been drawn, leaving Thomas without means. A dishonored draft, drawn by him in the summer of 1875, is in the hands of a Dresden banker, He procured the last money in his possession from a Suez bankpr in November, 1875, from a draft on Baring Brothers for £110. Heis not known to have been in connection with insurance companies before 1875, nor, previous to that date, can any traces be found of plans relating to ships. 1n the \st of goods shipped in the City of Boston, in 1870, were three boxes consigned from Halifax to Liverpool by James Thomas, the consignees being C. M. Lampsen & Co., and It is certainly known that in December, 1870, at the time the insurances relating to that steamer were paid, Thomas was in New York, and sent from the latter place to his wife, through London and Hamburg, bankers’ drafts for £500 and $457. It has yet to be cleared up as to whether the consignor of the above mentioned goods received the money for them. The German inquiries began to unearth intentions of acriminal nature as far back as 1873 At the com- mencement of that year Thomas was in Leipsic, and it has been discovered that he then went to a clock- maker named Martin, whom he asked to manufacture a clock similar to the one so often desembed. Martin referred him te a skilful mechanician named Fuchs, of Bernberg. In Easter, 1873, this Fuchs became ac- quainted with Thomas, the latter having informed bim ‘that he wanted a clock. y ‘THE INFERNAL CLOCK. The clockwork was to work silently, without any ticking, for the specified ten days, and then to strike, Fuchs did not quite understand the scheme, owing to Thomas’ imperfect German, and therefore did not im- mediately finish the work. In March or April, 1874, Thomas, under the name of Teadro Wiskoff, ordered from Ignas Rind, a clockmaker, living at No, 56 Sie- Denstern gasse, Vienna, a clock, which he said was to be used in a Russian manufactory. It was required to go ten days, and then, by the lifting of a lever, reloase acylindrical spring which carried great power, He gavo minute instroctions, and went himself to overlook the work, which he caused to be altered three times, owing to the spring being too weak In December, 1874, {t was completed to his satisfac- tion, The machine was then forwarded to an address given by Thomas in Bremen. One hundred guidens wero paid to the clockmaker in April, fifty in October, and the remainder subsequently. On the 0th of March, 1875, he again appeared at the shop of Mr. Fuchs, ac- companied by a porter, who carried a box, and ex- plained, in much better German than on the former eccasion, that the box contained a clock which had ‘been made in Vienna and was suited to his purpos He remarked, as before, that he required a clock for siik factory in Russia, which would go for ten days, and then at @ prescribed moment tho mechan- ism would release a spring lever of the pressure of thirty pounds weight, so as to arrest or tear a thou- sand threads simultaneously. He said the Vienna clock was too small and weak, and that if Fuchs could make him the exact thing he desired he would order twenty more. Fuchs accordingly made one and deliv- ered it on the 20th of April, 1875, In Leipsic. Thomas ‘mot him at the station, showed him a namber of boxes in the depot, which be said were going to Russia and were only waiting for the arrival of theclock He then took him to the Hotel de Pologne, and the clock ‘was deposited in Thomas’ room. Fuchs received 375 marks and retained the model. BUYING THE DYNAMITE. On the 2ist December, 1874, a gentleman calling himself W. J. Garcie, of Kingston, Jamaica, appeared in the Cologne bureau of the dynamite manufactory of the Brothers Krebs, at Kalk, and ordered some dyna- mite which he saidhe wished to ship on one of his own vessels to Kingston. Garcie was, without doubt, Thomas, The clerk at Messrs. Krebs’ manufactory has recognized the portrait of Thomas as being tdentical with the appearance of this Garcie, whose letters also correspond exactly with Thomas’. Thomas received the goods from Messrs. Krebs, addressed to Garcic, of Bremen, On the 19th March, 1875, he went to Kalk and received these 700 lbs. of lithofracture (dynamite) wrapped ap in parchment paper and packed in long, round paper boxes, each of which weighed five pounds, He took the whole away to England, as he said, On the following day a passenger arrived by the evening train from Cologne at the Magdebury depot in Leipsic station, who gave to the porter, Geissier, two large boxes and one small one, weighing together about 400 kilogrammes, which he bad brought as baggage, These boxes wore placed in the luggage room of the depot. Some weeks afterwara the same traveller, who had is the meantime often visited the depot, was beard to say that be ex- pected to meet a gentlemen who was to bring some- thing. This expected person catne, carrying a box with him, about which Geissler was told to be very careful, a3 it contained atlock. Both gentlemen often called on Geissler, nd after several conversations decided to take away the box containing the clock. Some weeks later Geissler, with the assistance of & porter named Hasse, took the three boxes to the Hotel Pologne, where they were deposited in an empty outhouse in the court. This gentleman was Thomas. About the same time Thomas bought from a cooper named Zitzman & large barrel, the inside of which be covered with can- vas, and in which he made a partition. He forbade the people around bim to give any information to his wife respecting the barrel, and the outhouse was always locked. When the barre! was ready it was described as containing iron wares and marked “G. 8 7. 10.” Ite weight was 495 kilogrammes. It was then de- spatched by rail to W, K. Thomas, Bremerhaven, Railroad Depot Restante, where it arrived on the lst of June, 1876, in the beginning of that month Thomas ‘appeared in Bremerhaven and despatched the barrel from the depos to the steamer Rhein, through the Lioyd Agency, On the 4th of June he wrote from ernie ein tgp nent sinners enc nit Te Bremen to Messrs saring sres., of London, as fol lows — BYSURING mS MACHINE You will please effect sonny & Oe eee Rhein, Captain Brockenstein, which sails for New Y‘ to-morrow, via Southampton.

On the Tth June Messrs, Barings replied:— We beg to inform you that, in accordance with your instructions of 4th inst, we have effected insurance on roperty per Rhein steamship from Bremen to New ‘ork at a cost of £46 2s. 6d. to your debit, as per en- closed debit note, We shall be Glad to know the nature of the said property and how it is packed. Possibly the rate would have been less if you had furnished us with these particulars, No answer came to this letter. Thomas then went, via London, to Liverpool, and on the 10th suiled by the steamer Republic to New York, where he met the Rhein and received the barrel, According to a private letter from New York @ certain “George S Thomas,” the alleged brother of W. K. Thomas, appeared on the ‘ist of June at the Custom House and wished to ascer- tain how he could reship the barrel without paying duty. Ho was referred to a freight broker, Edward M. Skidmore. It was declared that the contents of the barrel was polishing paste. On tho 29th it was placed in the bonded warehouse, and the bond was signed by Skidmore, who recognizes in the photograph of W. K. Thomas the man called George 8, Thomas. On June 26 ‘Thomas returned to Liverpool in the Republic under an assumed nal and arrived at the beginning of August in Dresden, On the 3d of August he went to ,the dynamite manufactory of the Brothers Krebs, im ‘Kalk, giving the name of Garcte, and ordered fifty-one pounds of lithofracteur, twenty percussion caps and four water-tight bags, asking that they might be kept till he returned. On the 3d of September he reappeared in Kalk, aud purchased three rings of gutta percha igniting cord, twetye percussion caps and more dynamite, making altogether about 100 pounds of that material, In August and September, 1875, he had pro- cured from a Dresden locksmith two small iron boxes, im the lid of each of which was a hole, through which # finger could be inserted. These boxes were enclosed in three cases. On October 4 Thomas arrived in London, and on the 6th entered his mame at the City Terminus Hotel as W. K. Thomas, giving his Liverpool ad- dress, On the Tth he went to the Northwestern Hotel, in Liverpool, where be remained until the 14th, having with him two ordinary wooden boxes and two small heavy boxes, wrapped up in canvas, and also a very firmly cordea travelling bag. He asked Paymaster Evans, of the Republic, to give him the name of a respectable agent, and was referred to Stern & Sons, af whose office he ordered passage in the Celtig for New York. A few days afterward he requested them to tn- sure two boxes, full of twenty dollar pieces, gnd worth £6,000, which he wished to take with him on the Celtic. Being askea why he travelled with so large am amount in gold, instead of in drafts, he replied that with the latter he would have some difficulties with regard to legitimation, and he required the money in order to pay, on arrival im ‘ New York, for some land which"he had purchased, Stern & Sons tried to secure the insurance for him, but the insurance agents asking that the money might be counted out before them Thomas withdrew under the pretence that the premium was too high, He thes tried personally to insure the two boxes at the office ob tho White Star line. Here, again, he was foiled by the demand that the money should be countea. He them took the two chests, the contents of which were later founa in New York to be merely shot, on board the Celtic, on which ship he sailed for New-York on the 1dth of October, 1875, That this journey was not origk nally intended by Thomas, and that if he had secured the Insurance on the Celtio would have gone back to Dresden, 1s proved from the letters of hia wife, who was greatly excited on account of his per- fectly unexpected journey to America, of which he had informed her by telegraph just before his de parture. Before tne Celtic left New York he attempted to leave the alleged money boxes with the psymaster, for a receipt, This was refused, and Thomas then tool the boxes away from the ship himself and left them ia the Custom House. Un the 23d of November he ar- rived in Bremerhaven, from Bremen, and there rented place near the haven, in which he stated he had te alarge barrel. He thought that the barrel com- Hs 0 from New York would be in Bremerhaven, but when he found that it had been sent to Bremen he proceeded to the latter place. ‘We now come to that partof the narrative which is already so well known that I will not repeatit We know that he managed to insure the barrel for 3,006 marks, and that it exploded on the 11th of December. It is now conjectured, probably correctly, that Thomas intended to deposit the barrel on the Deatschland Some letters written to his wife from Bremen give in- teresting particulars in regard to his condition and plans, He writes as follows:— LETTERS TO HIS WIPE, Nov. 80, 1875.—You must not be afraid that I will run away to America again, Ido not intend to go for some time again.

Besides this 3,000 marks no insurances appear to have been ef- fected for either the Mosel or the Deutschland, an_ noither in Southampton nor Liverpool has it been found that any freight was to have been brought on board by Thomas or his accomplices, It is to be presumed, im reference to the Mosel, that Thomas was alone in his deed, and that he wished to hand in the box, which he told some of the passengers contained greenbacks, te the captain of the Mosel, and on getting receipt te effect the insurance in England) When the explosion occurred his last means were gone.

TUR STORY TET TO EXPLAINED, ‘The possibility of Thomas having bed accomplices in his criminal insurances of goods intended to be stipped by the Mosel and the Doutechland is not, of course, excluded. Many points have yot to be cleared up, In November, 1875, Thomas, while in Bremen, was swait ing, with great anxiety, a letter from England, When it reached him he told his wife inat it was the eccount of a Dresden tailor, This letter, so far, has not beep found, nor ts it known where he procured the trunk and boxes with which he arrived on March 20, 1875 There is much'to be revealed in connection with bis past life, especially as to whether he had anything to do with the coal torpedoes, The German authorities do not appear to attach much weight to the revelations of “Warbawk,"’ in the Times, whose real name ts said to be Captain Palmer.
