NEW YORK HERALD, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 26, 1877——WITH SUPPLEMENT.. KATIE RIRDBLS DEATH. ‘New and Damaging Evidence Against Welspiel. A DRESSMAKER’S STORY. ‘Welspiel’s Knowledge of the Dead Girl's Visit to Staten Island. “ITs A D——D LIE!” ‘The circumstances surrounding the death of Katie Riedl, the pretty young wowan who was found dead on Staten Island, two weeks ago yesterday, were 80 very suspicious as to demand a thorough investi. gation ot the hands of the authorities. The amystery with which the caso was surrounded, when the improbability of suicide was pointed out by the Herat», invested the case with @ socret ebarm, and it excited a profound public interest and ‘was discussed as “the Staten Island Mystery.” From careful consideration of the published evidence, peos ple decided that the man Welsptel, who admitted hav. ing been in the girl’s company on the evening before her corpse was found, and after which nobody saw her alive, had need to tell a very probable story to clear himself from suspicion, His own testl- + mony before the Coroner showed that he had been intimate with the girl from 1872 when she was only thirteen years old; that he had playoa the part of husband, brother, father and friend t@ her, and tbat during those years she, when Bot living out as a nurse, had occupied the same room wWitn him. When she left the employment of Mrs. Phelps just three weeks before her death sho went to live with bim in bis little room at No, 167 Eldridge street, issuing from which sho was last seen alive. He swore positively that his relations to the girl had mover been criminal, but tnat she had had two chil- Gren, THE MURDERED GIKL’S PARENTS, ‘When the father and mother of the girl were found at their home, near Boston, brought hither and placed Bpon the witness stand, before Coroner Dempacy, on Pharsday last, they told a story which sent a thrill of borror through the community, and almost resulted in the lynching of Wolspiel. Hw had, the parents said, weduced her as a mere child, aftor employing her in his family, and finally induced her to Jeavo her home and hid her away from ber heartbroken mother in this city, where ho had been in constant communication with hersince. The mother of tho giri swore be had, while living in Boston, threatened to poison any man to whom wwe girl should show apy friendsbip; had threatened to poison bis wife, saying she would not work enough, and had re- tedly declared thut no ove but he should ever have ieger Besides all this, the unhappy parents ex- hibited ao warrant they had obtaied for the arrest of Welspiel in Boston in February, 1873, for adultery, he having been ao marricd man ‘when he seduced the school girl, and adulvery being a crime upon the statute books of Massachusetts. This ‘warrant they oblained wheu Welspiel, as alleged, ra away with their daughter, and for the purpuso of re- covering her. The police of that city, however, d manded the sum of $300 to makethe arrest, and as the parents could not pay that sum they wero obliged to abandon their misguided child to her fate, THR CORONER'S ACTION IN THR CASE. All these facts showing tho bad charucter of the man and indicating that he had perjured nimeelf in his testimony made 4 profound impression upon the public mind, and while many thought Welspiel was concerned directly in the death of the girl, all were convinced that ne should be held by the Coroner for ime to await developments, especially as the parents Announced their intention of procuring auother war- fant on their return home and have the seducer of their daughter extradited. The verdict of the jury was that the deceased came 20 her death ‘trom a uose of Prussic acid, how or by whom administered to the jury unknown,” aod siraightway Coroner Dempsey, to tie surprise of every one, discharged Welspiel {rom custody. When Coro- ner Dempsey was remonstrated with on the subject, he alleged that as the jury did not connect Welspiel with the death ot the girl mn any way he coud not legally detain bim. It is, however, not at all uncommon for Coroner to lock « man up to await investigation even after a jury bave acquitted him. WHAT WELSPIKL TOLD THE JURY. ‘The following story of the investigations of a HkRaLD eeporter last night will furnish additional reasons why Welspiel should be held to await developments. On jhe stand he tostified that on tho Saturday preceding finding of the body be came home sick at noon from Lindeman’s piano factory, where ho nd went straight to bed, awakened at five o’clock e evening by the deceased, who suddenly said she was tired of living in that bouse and want 0 KO so Newark, where a friend named Mary would get her tmployment 1n a corset factory. He testified that he thereupon at her request dressed himself to uccom- pauy her to the bout, which she wished to catch at o’clock; that he rode down upon a Third avenue gar to Chatham square, when he felt too ill jo ride further and got out, accompanied ‘vy her; that Bhe theroupon said she could flad her way to the boat herself, and that ho left her alter a parting scene, in which sho thanked him “for ali nis kinkness to her,’’ id hold until she ree for her bya dress- maker in Sixth street. spiel swore positively ae the girt said she was going to Newark, and that e knew nothing more about the mater than is given in the above details. NEW AND DAMAGING EVIDENCR, Thinking he might be able to throw some light upon the case, s Hanan reporter last night set out to find dressmaker alluded to, Sixth strcet is pfincipaily built upon by large tenements, inhabited exclusively by German families, and, strange to say, in almost every bouse from Bowery to the Eust River lives at Jeast one dressmaker, while not a few tenements shelter several. The one in question was found in a rear room on the top floor of the tenement No. 335, and there was no 4ign exposed to mark the culling. She proved to be Miss Duppler, aGerman woman, who, with her mar- ster, carries on the business in question. When the reporter suid he had come in relation to a dress lett by a lady from Eldridge street (Welspie home) the little dressmaker threw up her hands in de- ligbt and expressed her gladness that the garmeut was, as she thought, about to be taken away, “We were afraid something had happened to the Indy,” she said, “because she did not come,’’ The reporter, with- out stating bis identity or any of the particulars pt the case, merely anuouuced that the young woman was dead. Mis Duppler and her sister clasped their bands in surprise and grief, and talking sorrows lully over the circumstances under which the dress Was left with them the reporter learned that three weeks ago last Thuraday—thirteen days beturo her death—Katle Ricdel, looking for another dressmaker who had moved from an adjacent house, jound the Misses Duppler and gave them a quantity of black crepe to make her a dress, GOING TO VISIT STATEN ISLAND, On the following Monday she calied and asked if tt were done, and was disappointed to find that it was not, asshe wanted to wear it down to Staten Island, whithor she was going with her busband on the tol- jowing day or Wednesday. Then she went away, toll ing thom to hurry the dress. On Thurs fay she cume back and stated = incidentally that she bad been down to Staten Isiand on jbe previous day. ‘hen she requested that ‘he dress should be fiuisbed by Sunday as she was then going down to Staten Island again with ber bus. band. She showed the sisters some velvet shoe had bought and of which she was going to make a hat to wear with the dress. She came m the next day and brought a quantity of black sk to trim the dress and asked again that it should be nnished by Sunday otherwise she would not care for it, ‘She was very proud,” said Miss Dup- pler, “and wanted loops and tlounces placea here and there all over it, See, uere it i#,’’ and she produced the garment. THE DAY OF THR TRAGEDY, 1t was fiaily settled that the dress should bo finished b Rome o’eiock Sunday forenoon, when Katie said whe would sead her orother for it. They did pot see her again. At ten o'clock Sunday morning @ man who was easily recognized {rom the deseription as Welspiel called and said be nad been gent by the peg in treet to bring her dress home. du t relation he bore to the lady, Mise Duppler, ‘and I thought he was 80 old and ‘nut good looking,’ that he could not be her brother, but Must be the busband."’ Ou being told thatthe gar- ent was not yet finished he said tbey need not mind sbout it any iurther, us the lady had gove or was joing—they were not sure which—to Staten Islaud Boat day, They did not see bim again. A GERMAN PROVERR, ‘The story 0 far as Welspici’s caliing’and the conver- that ensued was corroborated by the husband married sister, who was prosent at the time. in learned that the girl had been found dead und: spicious circumstances he saw a possibility of being summoned, became very reticent remarked that there was a German proverb to the effect that if one does not burn his flogers be will not have peed to biow thom. Ten minutes’ waik brought the reporter to Nu, 167 Eldridge street, where Welspiel lodges, and entering a deer saloon on the first floor, front, sent up stairs tor Welspiel. The latter sent back word that he could nut tome, and tho reporter, passing out through the saloon, crossed a little courtyard, ascended two narrow tnd decrepit flights of stairs, and found himself ina lstle rear room where the ovject of his search, with wo other men, weroreated in their shirtsiceves around ts tatlor’s table playing cards, while three women, one of whom was Nyelaprel’s wile, sat 10 @& Opvosite cor- her. an Wop? a the reporter. “I “Good n ir. ont 3 PF cds magi you a questions privately.” Welepiel played out bis hand oi cards su! reer the women lurtively eyed tho reporter, Then 4, euddenly and fiercely turning around, “You needn't uy me, I guess!” “Ob, 0,” ponse, “T' don’t want todo that, I merely want to ask Well @ few questions,” “Well, T guess peeees, ask anything to frighten me; say it out ,”? returned Welspiel, as he con- tinued to play his cards, although he was evidently ex- cited. The reporter told what tbe dressmakers had said about his telling them was found that tl | bad laid down bis cards upon le, bright eyes keenly and vindictively upon thore of the reportes tried to read his motives in coming to him, The scribe returned the look calmly, and afi mo- ment apparently spent in recalling that occasion Wel- spiel broke out flercely :—*‘1 damned lie! I never said any such thing. I did not know she was going to Staten Island. I told ali I know, and if they want to bring me down there again ‘1’ll tell it again.” The last sentence waa uttered in & menacing tone, and the speaker was exhorted by his com- pares to keep his temper. He went on ins bigh ey, With a flushed fuce and excited tu to repeat what be said on the witness stand. He added that he had asked Katie to go home a day or two belore her death, but she bad refused, saying she did not want to go home 60 poor, ‘The question was thus reduced to one of veracity between three presumably respectable persons and Mr. Welspiel, and tbe reporter, seeing nothing could be gained by waiting, withdrew. AGAINST THE THKORY OF SUICIDE. Aside from the implication that Welspiel lied when he told about parting with the girl in Chutnam square, bove story tolls against him in other respects, He ‘ted on the witness stand that he bad not been on Island any day of the week Pescedian: the death, and that he bad worked the whole of every day except Saturday, when home at noon as stated. Now, the books of bi ployer show that he was away from work on Wednes- day ufternoor, the day on which Katie told the dress- maker she had been to Staten Island, Andon the other band, the same books show that he reported for work when the roll was called alter noon on Saturday, but slipped away lato in the day as if anxious to have his absence not noticed. Apart from the evidences of an expected long period of life shown in the purchase of dress and so beri i joun ifica- tion of the remains, re ‘was not a cenf of money ora card or other article of which the deceased could be recognized found upon her mn. Everything of that kind had evidently been carefully removed. If that had been done by the deceased sho would have certuinly removed the slip of paper, with the name and address of the young man, which she had received three weexs before and hid in the ribbon of her hat, It would, of course, escape the eyes of any one else, She herself would o thought of it at once, for in the light of ber parents’ testimony about the jealousy of Welspiel, it would appear that she placed it in her bat to excape his suspicious eyes. Mra, Welspiel was apparently at home when seen by the reporter Just night, and it 1s said the couple hat — living together since tho death of the ualortunate gu MEXICO, CORTINA’S ARBEST INSTIGATED BY CANALES— THE OLD RIVALRY BETWEEN TWO BANDITS— THE GOVERNOB OF TAMAULIPAS HOLDING THE TBUMP CARD.

JAMES RYDER AVEILHE. The death, from consumption, of James R. Aveilhé, at the age of twenty-two, at Savannah, Ga,, on the 5th ult,, is announced. The deceased was born in Charles- ton, S. C., and was for many yea tudent of Seton Hall College, New Jersey, and it is buta short timo ago that he graduated with tho highest honors, While in Seton Hall, young Aveilhé was noted for his universal good nature, gentlemanly deportment and ‘of manner.’ He was greatly liked by his and by his fellow students, and, on se’ asions, received testimonials of the high teem fo which his comrades held him. He was first in all manly sports and a hard working scholar, aud was, out of college, a favorite in society. He bad hosts of friends, and his unlooked for death wilt be widely mourned. GENERAL A. VON STEINWEHER. ‘The death is announced of this distinguished soldier of the late rebellion, His residence was at Cincipnati, Ohio, but he was travelling to New York, where his son resides, at tho time he died. Ho was taken ill at the Tif% House, in Buffalo, yos- terday afternoon, and died suddenly. General Von Steinweher performed important services during tho war aad held high rank among the brilliant men of the day as a soldier und a citizen, On tho 13th of July, 1862, he ordered tho ar of five citizens of Page coanty, Virgina, to bo held as hostages and suiter death in case any of the Union soldiers under his com- mand were shot by the rebel bushwackers For this he was declared by the Confederate government to have forfeited his right to be treated asa soldier or to the benefit of parole in case he was captured, Genera Pope’s name was also included in the list ot officers againat whom the order was directed. General Von Stoinwener, as Brigadier General, commanded the Second division the battle of Chancetlorsville on the 2d May, 1863, and made a full and mteresting re- port, dated May 8, of the part his division took in that engagement, DR, JOHN L,: TEMPLE.

Edward O'Connell, of No. 63 Mangin streot, saw a woman harriedly walking down the pier at tho foot of Delancey street yesterday, and noticed that she was very much oxcited and was talking to herself, When she reached the end of the pier she beal- tated for a moment, and thoa jumped into the rived, O'Connell jumped in and rescued her. An am- balance was sent ior and she was removed to Bellevue Hospital.

How the Wire for the Brooklyn Bridge is Made, TESTING ITS STRENGTH. Tho public being vitally interested in knowing with what care and accuracy the contract is being carricd out, which was awarded after.su much controversy by the trustees of the Brooklyn Bridge to Mr, T. Lloyd Haigh tor turnishing the steel wire for the four main cables and other parts of the superstraccure of tho bridge, and upon the proper strength and durability of which will depend their lives, a HkmaLp man found his way over Hamilton ferry to the works in South Brooklyn where the wire is now being made. Mr. Haigh’s wire mills are situated at the junction of Imlay and Wiltiam streets, occupy part of two blocks and are now being extended so as to facilitate the execution of the bridge contract. The crude rolled crucible cust steel rods, which aro received at the works from the rolling mills, are drawn into wire of the required size, which is afterward galvanized 10 protect it from the effects of atmospheric uction, Itis tested at the works under the supervision of the bridgo company’s engineers to see if it comes up tothe re- quirements of the specifications, and if approved is ready for delivery. The superintendent, Mr. C. 8. Howell, was found su- pervising the erection of ono of the new buildings, and when informed of the writer’s mission started him through the works, in company with a rather uncom- municative employ, afterward joining him, and giving every possible information. How iT 18 MADE, ‘The rolled crucible rod steci, part of which has been furnished from the works of Nichols & Co, 1. H, An- drews, and the Halmshire Company of Sheflield, Eng- Jand, is now supplied by Anderson & Parsovant, of Pittsburg, Pa, and there seems to boevery prob- ability that this frm will continue to supply the rods, This rod steel, which is rolled oval, is 4 by 5 gauge, or 7-82 of an inch one way by 15-64 the other, is re- ceived in the form of coils, weighing from 60 to 70 pounds ana about 200 yards in length. The end of each coil is heated in a blucksmith’s forge and then pointed, this being the first operation. Tho ceils are then carried to the building across the strect, where they are cleaned from the oxidized scale which forms on all metal which has been heated and then al- lowed to cool, Fourteen to fifteen of the coils are placed in each cleaning vat and ure left there for from two to two and a half hours in a hot liquid, con- sisting of water containing five per cent of sulpburic acid Thecoils, when sufficiently cleaned, are taken out and coatea with hme to prevent further acid ac- tion, They aro then thoroughly baked in suitable ovens for some ten hours, to thoroughly dry them and remove all traces of the acid, which if not effec. tually eliminated leaves the coils brittle, THE DRAWING. When these operations are tiuished the coils are ready to be transformed into wire by being drawn out ‘This drawing consists in pulling the wire, by means of suitable apparatus, through graduated holes in steel plates, until it is drawn down to the required size. On an iron bench are placed rotating cylindrical drums or blocks, as the workmen call them. ‘The wire being thrown over a reel, the workman iuserts the poiuted end in one of the holes of thedrawplate. A cam under tho drum acts on u pivoted lever arm, to which is chained a pair of heavy nlppers or “pullers.” When the cam has passed the workman seizes the protruding end of the wire with tho “pullors the cain then acts, exerting an immense pressure On the lever, the wire being drawn some distance through the plate, It is again seized by the nippers, and drawn forward until it can be caught ina vise onthe drum, fhe drum is then put into gear and rotutes, drawing the wire through the plate, The rod steel, which in passing through the plate bocumes steel wire, is kept well lubricated with tallow as it passes through tho plate. ‘he plates are rectangular blocks of peculiariy hurd steel, pesy ices with conical openings, the wire passing from’the larger opening, which 1s about halt an inch in diameter, vut of the sinallor one, which ts of the size necessary tor one drawing. The draw plates are very carefully made of steel specially manufactured for that purpose. The wire on coming out of the plate 1s well greased and quite bot, but soon couls off as it passes round the drum, In order to draw the rod steel to tho proper size of wire for the bridge it 18 only drawn twice, ‘The oval rod is drawn down to wire of No. 7 or tbree-sixteentn iuch diamet by the first pla, aud from the second it appears having the diameter required by tho specifleations+-namely, 0.116 inch— which size 1s known as Birmingham No, 8 The wire having passed through the operation of drawing is well soaked with tallow, and has to be putin “pickle” to romove all the grouse bofore it goes through the operation of galvanizing. The operation ot *pickling”’ consists in boiling the wire in vats containing a weak solution of potash, This takes some two or three hours, Alter the grease is thoroughly eliminated the wire is tempered in suitable ovens, GALVANIZING THE WIRE, Tho wire is now finished and ready to be galvanized by the depositing of ucoating of zincon its suriace. ‘The coils are carried across tho street again anu placed on reels, from which the wire passes over drums and back into the galvanizing bath, From the drums the wires pass under rollers into a bath of dilute muriatic acid, highly charged with zinc, The acid bites a de- positing surface, on which a certain amouat ot zinc 13 deposited, which, as the wire passes through a floating flux of sal ammoniac into a bath of melted zinc, acta as riace of union for the two metals. The bath of eited zinc, which is surrounded by six inel of fire, is kept at a temperature of about 750 degrees Fabrenheit, Some twenty feet per -minute pasa through the melted zinc, ond it is supposed that [rom six to seven pounds of zinc are deposited on 100 pounds of wire. From the zinc bath the gal- vuniged wire passes through a mixture of coal dust and moulding sand, Whichacts ag u cleaner and pol- isber, at an angle of 45 degrees for 150 feet, when it roach: ‘ge reels over which it passes perfectly cold and under great tention on to the coiling reels, From these last reels the wire is taker off in culls of five feet in diameter, the length of wire in cach coil bemg some 900 to 1,000 tees, The operation through which the wire passes after leaving the galvanizing bath 18 Patented process of Colonel Paine, assistant engineer of the bridge company, and resulis in the wire, when unrolled from the coils, lying pertectly straight, at exbibiting no inclination to bend back to the direction of tho rest of the coil, ‘This is obviously a very necessury quality, and one demanded by the specilication, The wire being fintshed it now only remains to test it and sce Whether it comes up to the requirements of the bridge company as to strength aud elasticity. The breaking strength and amount of stretch are deter- miued by testiug one foot samples taken from both ends of each coil, and by testing a five foot sample from every filth coil, ‘Ihe sumpies exceeding tno test- ing dimensions sulliciently to aliow of firm gripping are placed ia the jaws of the testing apparatus and sub- jected to a pulling strain produced by weight placed on ‘a long scale arm, tne weight beimg increased until the wire breaks under the strain, Tue wire, before com- Mencing the testing proper, 18 subjected to a pre- liminary straightening strain of 400 pounds. The per: centage of stretch beiore breakuye is noted on a graduated scae, The specifications require that tho Wire ehall have a breaking strength of over 3,400 pounds, with three and a-haif per cent of stretch. A MERALD TEST. For tho benefit of the Hxkalv readers two tests were Made in presence of the rkaLD representative, A foot of wire was tested each ume. The wire was placed io the juws by Mr. Georgo Stuniey, » workman the apparatus, When everytuing was ready there was, a8 before stated, a strain of 400 pounds on the wire. An employé, stationed on the platiorm below the scale arm, first placed weights cor- Tesponding to 3,000 pounds on, then increased the weight to 3,86), when the percoMage of stretch, us noted from the scule by Mr. Sianley aud recorded by the Heratp mau, was three por cent, At 3,980 pounds the Wire broke, showing five per cent of stretch, A second sample was tuken from another coil, On testing this with 3,000 pounds at starting it gave two percent of stretch, A thousand pounds were added, and the wire sull stood the tremendous strain recording lour per cent of streten, On creasing the Weights so that the scale marked 4,250 pounds the wire parted, showing five and turee-fourtis percent stretch, ‘The results ol the MkeaLo’s tests, like those made so far under the superintendence of the bridge officials, are very satistactory, being much over the strength called tor by the conditions of the tract. wo breaking strengths so lar have aver: the vicinity of 3,900 pounds, with five per cent of stretch, und in some cuses even as high 4s 4,700 breake Ing strength has bee hed.

The new buildings, which ure being put up, are constructed with especial reference tu Colonel Paine’s “straightening”? patent, being 200 feet in length by uinety feot deep, and will contain tho galvanizing and reesing apparatus. The jour main cables of the bridge, for which and for sho wire rope suspenders of the roudway, Wis wire is being Manufactured, Will cach be composed of 6,289 wires, divided into nineteen strands of 431 wires each, ‘This will give cables sixteen inches in diameter, Theso, with the breaking strength of 3,400 pounds required by the specitications, would give a tensile strength of 160,000 pounds por square inch of cross section, Butit the’ wire manufactured by the contractor keeps at the present high standard tho tensile strength per square inch of cros# section will be somewhere in \ Viciuity of 200,000 pouads, TRUE TO HIS WORD. THE END OF A BRIEF COURTSHIP—A BREACH OF PROMISE QUICKLY HEALED BY JUDGE MURBAY. August Cbristmana, a young German of fine appear. ance, well attired, apparently about twenty years of ago, Was a passenger on the steamer Suevia from Ham- burg, which arrived in port about ten o’clock yester- day morning. Journeyig on the same vessel, though upattended, was a vivacious young country woman irom Wiesbaden, a brunette, with sparkling black eyes, petite figure and a wealth of raven tresses, which flowed becomingly over her shoulders, Her name was Emma Mo: nd August was soon fascinated by the charms of the brunette, who smiled sweetly um her ad- mirer and willingly accepted the offer of his protec- tion, The intimacy grew so rapidly that, no sooner had the steamer Joit Havre, which is the Orst port she touched on her voyage, than Emma and her cavaler were known to their fellow voyagers as Mr. and Mra, Christmann. Arrived at Hoboken, apartments wi secured for the couple at the Park Hotel, whithor Emma's effects were at once despatched, though August forwarded bis to No, 88 Second avenue in this city. WAYWARDNESS DEVELOPS, * He accompanicd Emma to the hotel, but after a sbort stay purted from hor, Though absent but a short timo, Emma became alarmed and in her anxiety sought the aid of the police. Officer Robinson, of the Beventeenth precinct, traced the avsentee to his lodg- ings and there took bim into custody, Yestorday morning, he was introduced to Judge Murray, at the Essex Market Police Court, and the facts detatied to the magistrate. Emma was present und intently watched the proceedings, ages was represented by counsel. Judge Murray—“Well, you have heurd the lady’s statement. She says that on board the vessel you agreed to marry her. Do you intend to stand by the agreement or uot? 1 ask you as a mao,” ‘August—*'l will stand by my agreement,’? Instantly the vivacious little lady rushed forward and embraced her frieuds with great glee, though August did not seom to sbare in her juyful transports, nor did he embrace her with tho rapture of a bridegroom. Judge Murray, however, complimented him on the charms of his spouse and the manliness he evinced in abiding by his agreement. He then proposed the immediate solemnization of the marriage und all parties procecded to the Judge’s pri- vate room. Kev, Honry Murray, P.
