Parker. the witness, was denounced after the hearing both by the police and by- the brothers of the dead man. His testimony," said William Latimer.

was a dastardly attempt to blacken the character of a good woman and to bring an innocent man into the electric chair." The wording of the verdict was: we find that the Albert C. Latimer, came to his death on the 9th day of July, 1902, from shock, internal hemorrhage, and pneumonia. following a penetrating pistol wound in the chest. inflicted by some unknown person. We think an ante-mortem statement should have been taken.

The testimony In this case is in such shape that it Is impossible for us to determine on whom the blame should be laid to. no statement having been obtained from the dying man." Only two witnesses were examined before the case went to the jury. Henry J. Parker, who said he was employed by Albert C. Latimer to shadow Tuthill and Mrs.

Latimer, was not permitted to give testimony of a sensational character, as he promised he could do, nor was be allowed to repeat alleged conversations he said he had with Mr. Latimer. The district attorney said that such testimony was illegal. Parker testified that Latimer took him to Tuthilrs house and that he watched it until he saw Tuthill come cut. He then watched the Latimer house and shadowed Tuthill and Mrs.

Latimer. Tuthill visited the Latimer house, Parker said, but he never saw Mr. Tuthill and Mrs. Latimer meet elsewhere, and he never saw anything indiscreet in their relations. Mary Fitzgerald.

a servant employed in a house opposite the Latimer home, testified that she saw a man who was not a policeman on the roof of the Latin-ter house immediately after the shooting. The police say they will continue to investigate the case. and if they get any evidence will present the case to the grand jury. 1 1 I 1 1 MPH Ill 11 Party below--" There must be something wrong up there."

Cole says that so long as that law remains in force bad men can get elected to the lower house of the legislature, and he says an effort will be made next winter to have it repealed. This statute provides that each senatorial district shall have both republican and democratic representation or an Independent in the place of one of the partisans in the popular branch of the law making body. A few independents have held seats in every assembly since this law was enacted, but only in the event of bitter factional strife do the voters of either of the two old parties fail to support the regular nominees.

the throat cut from ear to ear, hidden in the bushes near the waters of the bay. The blood was still oozing from the body. The man had not been dead many hours. There was no clew to his identity or of those who had carried the body into the bushes. The detectives are sure more than one person was concerned In the crime.

Description of the Victim-This Is the description of the dead man sent out tonight for the Information of the public: Nine o'clock this afternoon a man about 85 years old. 5 feet 10 inches. 200 pounds, fair complexion. dark hair, brown sandy mustache, gray eyes, thumb and forefinger of left band cut off, found foot of Seventy-third street, sewed in old English grain sack; throat cut from ear to ear; rope tied around head; no clothes On body; found seventy feet on shore in bus'hes. No Clews Are Found.

The hands showed no marks of labor. They were soft and clean. as the hands cl a clerk or a banker might be. The muscles were firm. Though the man was large, he was not fat.

There was not a shred of clothing on the body or in any of the wrappings which had been tied around it. There Is a house a few hundred feet from the hiding place of the body. No one there was able to help the police in findingout how the body mine. The trees and underbrush grow so thickiy along the shore, however, that a considerable body of men. bearing a heavy burden, might have moved along the water for a quarter of a mile or more without being seen from this house.

Body Tied Up in Sacks. When the body was taken to the station house the sack was examined carefully. The neck of it was drawn together with half inch hemp rope, which had been let through a number of holes roughly punched about the edge of the opening. When this rope was untied and the neck opened out a number of sheets of the New York Times of the Issue of Sunday, July 12. were found wadded together.

These were dabbled with blood, but were not soaked through. An Inner bag was of the same material as the other, but was much worn and soiled, and the weave of it was flimsier. The neck of this one was neatly sewed up with coarse string. A needle had apparently been used in running the string through the sacking, which was saturated with blood. There was not the slightest coagulation of the blood observable on the wrappings.

The opening of the second bag disclosed a lot more sheets of the Times of July 13 wadded together and soaked with blood. Find Sack of Clothing. There was no cut or stab wound visible on the body except that across the throat. There were no bruises except a number of scraped spots on the right ride from the shoulder to the calf of These scraped spots were clean. Detectives made a search in the neighborhood where the body had been found and discovered a short distance away a bag almost exactly similar to that which had covered the body.

This contained a black suit of clothes; a shirt, pair of shoes, and derby hat of the same color, and a suit of white underwear. The hat bore a mourning band. All the garments were soaked with blood, and it seemed probable the coat and trousers had been used as a mop to absorb the blood. Body Thrown from Wagon. From the relative positions of the two bags when found it was probable they had been brought to the spot in a wagon.

The bundle containing the body, being much heavier, had rolled several yards nearer the sea and bad only been stopped by the clump of bushes and tall grass in which it was found.

This plumping." it is said by officials of the leagues, makes it difficult to elect an Independent where one is most needed. The charge is made that the leaders of the old parties, where their nominees are attacked by independent candidates, form combinations so to split the vote as to prevent defeat.

Wants the Law Amended. The claim of the league people is that repeal of the minority representation law would do away with the plumping business. Their proposition is for a revision of the law to prevent any candidate receiving a "plumped vote. The voter would still have the privilege of casting three legislative votes, but he would have to divide them among three candidates, practically nullifying the purpose of the act. Mr.

Cole believes that a law of this kind would go further than almost anything else toward stopping the nominations of objectionable candidates: He will use his best endeavors to sdcure its enactment, but it must be done through an amendment to the constitution, and that requires time. But if the league has any influence at Springfield a resolutimi embodying the contemplated amendment will be introduced in the next session. the leagues makes It difficult to lect an This plumping." it is said by officials of Indenendent where one is most needed.

About two years ago her father left England to come to this country In search of a fortune. Six months ago he sent for Hilda, and her mother packed her off to America. She became so homesick that her father decided to send her back to England, so she started on, her long journey.

She has safely accomplished half the distance. Hilda was not at all flustered at the attention she was causing, and answered all Questions put to her. Allegations that his wife's expenditures cost him more than $4,000 in less than a year after their marriage and that she also attempted his life by chloroforming him while he was in bed asleep, were made in a bill for divorce filed yesterday by Clinton S. Hartzell against his wife, Nettie Hartzell. Hartzell, who has been living at 501 La Salle avenue, is the son of John Hartzell, said to be a wealthy resident of Monmouth, and was married to the defendant, who was Miss Nettie Hockum, on Dec.

19, 1899. He lived with her until July 14, 1902. Hartzell says it became evident immediately after their marriage that his wife married him on account of the property which she believed him to possess. Finally, he avers, his business was wrecked and then came the alleged attack on his life. Judge Brown has granted a decree of divorce to Attorney Samuel H.

Under an opinion recently given by City Attorney Owens widows of policemen who died from natural causes after having been in the service ten years are entitled to no specific pensions and must, be satisfied with any amount the board may vote them.

In the morning Judge Cutting decided that Mrs. Nottbohm, administratrix of the estate of her son, had the right to agree in his name to the licensing of the garden.
