Captain also said that he had learned that Johnson had really been 4m the Navy He was on the cruiser Columbia In 1885, when he was dis- reed from the service. Prior to that time he had been in a hospital it weeks with typhoid fever, That is the only point in the man's story t the police have been able to corroborate. _, Johnson is about twenty-eight years old. He ts a pecullar-looking man owing to the constant smirk which plays about his mouth, He seemed to thoroughly enjoy the notoriety which was his to-day, and kept looking about him with a self-satisfied, supercilious air, é He is of light, but athletic build, 5 feet 7 inches tall, with shoulders thrown back abnormally. He has a peculiar gait, rather effeminate in character. He is fair-skinned and has a flowing light brown mustache. To-day he wore a black felt hat, a dark brown overcoat with a velvet eollar which he kept turned up, and a dark suit of clothes. HIS STORY OF A YOUNG WOMAN. His claim that he met a young woman by appointment and spent the ‘evening with her before he gave himself up is another tell-tale symptom to the pathological expert. © _ “William ©. Latimer, of No. 125 © ornelia street, Brooklyn, brother of the murdered man, went to Police Headquarters to-day and saw the pris- omer, He did not talk with him. When asked what he thought of the man’s story he said: “I don’t believe he is the man, 1 think he is a liar. His story 1s pre- posterous. He couldn't have entered the house In the daytime without being seen. He eays he got in during the afternoon and went to sieep in the closet in the Latimers’ room. That's all bosh, Why the Latimers hung their clothes in that closet every night before retiring. They would hayé seen him had he been there. I don't believe there is a word of truth in his whole yarn.” ) Police Inspector John Brennan sald ’ “The man {s just a vagrant Winter is coming and he wants six months in jail where it will be warm, He ought to be sent to the Island and made to work.” beputy Commissioner Ebstcin expressed a similar opinion _JOHNSON NOT KNOWN IN PHILADELPHIA, PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 30.—Nothing is known in this city of Johnson, who surrendered to the authorities at the Greenpoint, N. Y. police station, stating that he had killed Albert C. Latimer in Brooklyn on July 2. ‘The address given by Johnson, No. 164 North Eighth street, is a stable and has Deen for several years. No person by the name of Johnson is known in the neighborhood ++ _CONFESSION IS FALSE, DECLARES MRS, LATIMER. +4$e— Says Johnson's Implication of Her in His Yarn! i Is Outrageous and Cruel. Just oefure Johnson was taken to the police court he was asked ff he! could identify Mrs. Latimer. “Certainiy,’ ho said. He was i that time in the Gates avenue station-house, and Capt. Bu.hanan was waiting for Mrs, Lather to appear. As she did not come! he aske@ Mrs. Cayanaga, the station-house matron, to leave her room s eretiy by the beck way and with her hat on come Into the station by the front door. Sin did so and inquired for Capt, Buchanan. Jehngon saw er and looker’ at her sharply, “Do you know who that is?” the Captain asked him. “That is Mra, Latimer,” he sald promptly. "Very well Mrs. Latiner,” sald the Captain to the matron, "Go into that room and I wiil see you later.” Johneon was not told of his mistake, but was taken to court, where he told his story about Mrs. Latimer letting him into the house the night of the murder. Mrs Letimer went to the station-house while Jolinson was at court. Capt. Buchanan told her on his return what the man had said about her Yetting him in. “Oh, it's ridiculous, It’s preposterous, i{'s outrageous to say such a thing, «o drag my name into it in such a way," exclaimed the woman. “How cruelly false! Surely no one could believe such a story as that, I suppose now that this wholn case will be opened up and I will be obliged to go all over {t again. I had hoped to escape further grief.” Then Mrs. Latimer inquired minutely Into the statements made by Johne son, The Captain told her everything, and she only made her characteriza- tlon of the prisoner the stronger, Mrs, Latimer was looking better than at any time since her husband's murder. She was dressed in a black gown, but wore a light long coat, with | a mourning badge on her right sleeve. Contrary to her habit since the. murder, she wore no veil. There was color in her cheeks and her eyes were bright. SOUGHT DEATH - THOT SHE'S Ack Woman.
