Mrs. Stephens, or the United States Hotel at New Brunswick, said that she had not the slightest loubt that Annie Ingraham, whom she had cared tor Willie homeless in May, 1886, was the Rahway victim. When I went to Kahway to see the dead irtrra clothing." said Mrs. Steph-ns, "1 was cautioned by th-' officer not to betray any feeling to wbo mu'ht be watching uie. It was hard to control myself when 1 identified the picture, the woolen skirt an I the ring, and I had a good cry when I came away." Did also identify any of Annie Ingraham's Clothing In the minx at Win.

Thai trunk was tlie same wblch sne took rrom iny hoteL There can be no doubt about the identity of tills woman. she had the three rings which Wilson had here when living with me." LANDED IN PHILADELPHIA. Annie Ingraham arrived In Philadelphia from i England about February 1.1*86, and came direct to the employment agency In this city, and re- in lined at her tlrst service only a few days. was In New Brunswick ill about two weeks, tnd r-malned that rime at the rriited States Hotel in that town.

on the last of June she went to i lain Usher's home at the llve-mlle lock and re- i untried there live months, or until the middle of November. Then she lound employment at the nMem cloth Mills, at Bound Brook, but worked lb-re only one day. At the mills is employed a weaver known as Frank Credeford. Some called him Crawford. 1 of the Mills Kyan said that Crede' bad worked there for seven or eight years.

He bad an ungovernable temper and was consldr-M a dangerous man. No one knew where he itne from and none dared ask him. Credeford fascinated with Annie, and she had not been at the mills an hour before he was In conversation with her. A MARRIAGE. Annie went to the mills December 5.

On tte mornlnc of December she told Mrs. Wilson that she would not return to work, but offered no explanation. The next day she met Credeford and the two became partially Intoxicated. That ulicht 1'iedeford and Annie presented themselves at The iilflce of Justice soinmers and aunounced their to get married. The ceremony was performed, and directly thereafter Annie expressed sorrow I her act.

she refused to kiss her mil. and would not alio him to accompany her to Mrs. Wllsonl house. That night Annie told Mrs. Wilson that she had scarcely knew what she was doing when Klie married credeford, and claimed that the liijuor she Imbibed had robbed her ot here sense-, for the time being.

She said she would leave Bound Brook next day to escape Credeford. When morning came Annie arose early and parked licr satchel ta Utile black one) with a few sue retained the ring and garment loaned by sirs. Wilson and left three rings with that lady. She took the first train over the new line road to Philadelphia. On the same morning credeford presented himself at the mill and demanded his wages.

His money was paid him and he took a later train lor Philadelphia. For a few weeks letters came to Mrs. Wilson from Annie, who had found employment in Philadelphia. Tnen the correspondence, which contained no reference to a meeting with Credeford, suddenly ceased. The last letter was received some time in January of the present year.

All trace o( the woman is lost from that time until the tragedy at Kahway. THE DETECT tVES' THEORY. It la believed by the officers that Credeford did not discover his unwilling wife's presence In Philadelphia until about the time ot the murder, or a few days before, and that she fled from him. but was overtaken at Kahway. The mystery surrounding the basket of eggs and other little details noticed at the time are yet to be solved.

Detectives at Philadelphia have been searching for credeford for several days and It was for the purpose of as ertalnlng how they succeeded that Excblef Fitzgerald and Detective Gregory went to that city last night. have not captured our man yet," was all the explanation Fitzgerald would make to-day when asked as to the result of his Journey. Mayor Daly and Chief Tooke, of Kahway, and Chief Keron, of Elizabeth, went to New Brunswick this afternoon, carrying with them the satchel found side the dead girl and several articles worn by her. Mrs. Stevens' statement was made before Mayor Daly, and she reiterated her former testimony and grew indignant when the mayor cross-questioned her.

Heavy Rainfall la New Orleans. PART OF THE TOWN FLOODED AND HCCH DAMAGE DONE TO PROPERTY. The heaviest rain of the year fell In New Orleans on Tu-sday, and the barometer reached a lower point than Is of record since the establishment of the signal station there. It rained nearly all day and all night, the rainfall marking about 4.50 Inches. The rear of the town was flooded, and the fires at he draining canals were put out by the flood.

The draining canals were bank full, and the level for hours was several feet bUherln the rear than In the front of the town. Thousands of acres ol cane ready for cutting and grinding were beaten to the ground by the mud and rain, and coit? not yet picked was trodden In the mud. In the city proper the framework or the new catholic Church of Our Lady or Good Counsel, in the sixth district, was blown down, an I the Kev. Fattier Lambert was caught in the timbers and painfully brulsed. The floating grain elevator, Jennie Armsirong, had her top work, blown away.

Involving a loss of 110,000. The roof of the Levee Cotton Mill or Lehman Abraham was blown off and the machinery drenched with the flood. The Louisville and Nbshvlile road, near Lake Catharine, again suffered, some -joo or300 feet of track being washed out. Eleetrlc-llght wires were thrown from their fastenings, and live buildings in different parts of t.ie city were set on Ore thereby. Hundreds of trees throughout the city were uproo.ed and fences blown down.

No Uvea were lost, and there were many narrow escapes. The Burnnlde Will Cue. 8CIT TO TUT THE I.EOALITY OP CERTAIN OP THE TRANSACTIONS. What is commonly known as the Burnside will case, a suit involving the late general's financial transactions as executor of his wife's estate, came up in the Supreme court ot Khode Island at Providence Monday. The Khode Island Hoepltal Trust Company, as executor, appears as plaintiff, with Howard Manchester, administrator, defendant.

Mr-v Mary K. Burnside died in 1878, leaving a will, which she gave to her husband. Gen. Burnside, ail her personal property, wblch, after his death, was to go to her mother for her lire, and then to four charitable societies and others. Although by the terms of the wid Gen.

Burnside had power to sell any of the property and use the proceeds. It has been decided by the court In anotner case that he had no power to pledge It. He was the executor of the will, and filed an inventory, lii which bon is of the value of were returned, subsequently he tiled an acctuut, stating tnat be had taken all the persona, property tor lit''. Be in September, 1881, and it was ascertained that he id pledged tne bonds to several parties as security lor tuooeys lent him by them. Among these lenders were tne Farmers' Loan aud Trust Company New York and Win.

II. Usborn, who paid the bal.nc-of value of twenty-live boud over and above the amount of their loans, about jo.ooo, to tlie defendant, who Is the administrator or the e-tat- of Burnside. The plaintiff, as the executor or Mrs. Burnside, has sued to recover the sum so paid, in Ignorance ol the tact that her husband no power to pledge the bonds. defendant says that there a i- no privity between the parties and that if the money has p.d by mistake the Farmers' atid iTrust company and osborn are alone entitled to sue for li.and not the plaintiff.

He turtner denies that the bonds were pledged, and iiins that they were actually sold by Gen. Burnle. as he had i to do, and that the money paid to the defendant waa a gift from the puri ti isers, who were deslrousot helping hlin, and giving the advantage resulting from a rise In the value ot the bonds. After millions. A DAL OUTER sLKkS TO BHEAE THE WILL.

The New York Tribunr, October says: "Mrs. Laura B. Appleton, a daughter of John Anderson, has begun a suit In partition In the Supreme Court I against her brother, John Chas. Anderson, to whom the bulk ot her father's estate was bequeathed, making all others holding real estate that as the property of the testator at the time or ids death parties defendant. She claims oner.rth Interest In her fat her estate on the same grounds upon which her niece, Mrs.

Mary Maud Watson, obtained Judgment In her favor in ber ejectment suit against Messrs. l'hyfe and Campbell. The complaint In Mrs. Appleton's action, nlch was ni-d in the county clerk's office yesterday, that the execution of the will waa brought about by fraud and undue Influence, and that the millionaire tobacconist was ot unsound mind. demands Judgment that she is entitled to an undivided one-firth part of all the real estate lett by John Anderson: that an accounting be made by all persons holding any of this real estate; that the beouest to John Chas.

Anderson be declared void; and that one-fltth of the rents of the property rrom the time of her father's death be adjudged to belong to her. It the property cannot be partitioned she asks that It be sola and the proceeds divided In such a way that one-fltth ot it may be paid to ber, and that a receiver be appointed. In thecomplalnt It is staled that Mrs. Mary Maud Watson received $150,000 In settlement of her claim, although in the release given by Mrs. Watson the amount was stated at IoOlOOOl" Jeaay Mad Dylaf, October 5 waa the sixty-sixth anniversary Mine.

Baltimore Divorce Cane Ended. MB.

bottomer granted a divorce and the crsTODV or THE CHILDREN. Judge Dennis, of the circuit Court In Baltimore, granted Henry H. Bottomer an absolute divorce from his wife, Mary A. Bottomer, and also the custody and care of the minor children, and dismissed the cross-bill filed by Mrs. Bottomer.

The court also directs that Mr. Bottomer pay the costs of the proceeding, including a $250 counsel tee to Mr. E. C. Elchelberger, representing the defendant; Messrs.

C. W. Field and L. lltx hhelmer, represented the complainant. Following Is the opinion of the court: "In reaching the conclusion hereafter announced," says the court, "I have wholly disregarded the testimony ot Detective Pickering.

It Is uncorroborated in any particular; it Is, upon its face, open to the gravest suspicions, and, coming from a man such as he was shown to be by crossexamination, is wholly unworthy of belief. Nor do I think the evidence of the witnesses Wood and Paine, as to the alleged occurrences some vears ago near the Belay House of a character sufficient to Justify a conclusion of the defendant's guilt. In cases of this character reliable, direct testimony is rarely attainable, and hence circ*mstantial evidence is necessarily the only resort, and in determining what measure of such evi.ience Is required to prove an adulterous act, the court of Appeals in the Kremelberg case has adopted the rule that the circ*mstances must be such as would lead the guarded discretion of a reasonable and Just man to the conclusion of guilt- No good purpose would be served by going into the details of the evidence In this case, but following the rule above laid down, I think the correspondence which paassed between the defendant and at least three of the parties mentioned in the testimony, coupled with the relations which have bwn shown to have ex sied between them, both prior and subsequent to the filing of the bill, leaves no doubt of her criminal conduct The letter, exhibit a P. M. (the Gettlnger letter), about the authenticity of which there can be no question, destroys absolutely all antecedent presumption of her Innocence.

Her letters, both to her husband and to others, show not only an utter lack of wifely affection, but positive loathing for him, while for other men, at different times, they express the most ardent passion, for each one la his turn. Taking Into consideration these letters, together wit those addressed to and her subsequent conduct In receiving the writers of the letters in her bed-room at late hours of the night, with every precaution against interruption, I think the guarded discretion of a reasonable man can reach no other conclusion than a conviction of the defendant guilt. I will sign a decree granting the plaintiff (H. H. Bottomer) a divorce a vinculo, and awarding him thO custody of the children." The exhibit S.

P. M. mentioned in the opinion was a grossly obscene letter produced in evidence as having been written by Mrs. Bottomer to Chaa. W.

Gettinger, of Frederick, Md. The American gays: The case, from beginning to end, attracted much attention, principally from the large number of gentlemen involved, some of whom are well known in tne community, and from the character of the correspondence produced, some of which was peculiar. The proceedings, including the habeas corpus case for the custody oi he youngest child, have occupied the attention of the courts at times for about a year. Seven AOED AND WEALTHY rARMERS WHO TOOK THEIR LIVES rOR VARIOt'S STRANGE REASONS. A telegram to the New York Hun from October 19, says: The past week was remarkable for the number of curious suicides that occurred in this and adjoining counties, principally among old and wealthy farmers.

George Snowburger, aged eighty-tour years, drowned himself in Antietam Creek, on his farm In Washington township, Franklin County. He was born on the farm, and had never been as far away from It as thamb rsburg, the county seat.

Jenkins Petit, a well-know farmer of PlnevlUe, Bucks County, hanged himself to an apple tree because he had promised his wife not to drink on a visit to Doylestown and broke his promise. He was thirty-five years old.

Kamsey Groom, a farmer living near Mechaulcsvlne, Bucks County, lost his wife by death on Saturday last. Two days later his only child died.

The top of nls head was shot away On the dead man's coat was pinned a Dleceof paper on which he had written as follows: "I have no hope of the next world, and so am not fit to live In this." George Henry, an old farmer Uvlng near the village of Atwood, was sitting in his dining room on Tuesday forenoon. Ills wile and daughter were In the room. The lormer asked her husband to give her a dollar to buy some sugar. "Your ei travagance," said Henry, "will drive us to the poorhouse, and I won't slay to see it." He arose down his rifle, and, before he could be oreveuted, placed the muzzle against his breast and pulled the trigger with his loot. Tne ball Dassed clt-ar through ins body, and lodged in the celling and he fell dead at his wife's feet.

Jolin Kelin aged seventy-three, a rich bachelor farmer lirlnJ near Lobachvlde, Berks county, was indicted recently on a charge of conspiring to defraud a local bank out ol $700. on Thursday he took hi, shotgun and went out behind the village churcu and shot his off. Henry Haines. sixty years, a prominent farmer of West Dontial township, Lancaster ouuty, asked a son of his on i-diicsday to load his gun, as he wanted to shoot a dog that had been Killing some of his chickens. The same day, being alone In his house he drove a nail near one end of a lath, and placliiK his gun on a table with the muzzie against hibreast he pushed the trigger with the nail In the lath, and the entire charge lu the gun passed through his body.

His clothing was set on lire bv the powder, an I when the old man's body was discovered the clothing was nearly all burned off and the suicide's remains were padly charred! aimer Haines had long been In 111 health.

War between wni Vligtaia km and Vlftl THB MURDER OP KIT. KIL BY OP ASSASSINS ALREADY OCT OP WAT, WITH pursuit or othim. A special to the Cincinnati Enquirer from Charleston, W. October 18, glved the following particulars of the murder of Bev.

Mr. Kyan and the subsequent a brief account of which has already appeared lnTn star: It was about 11 o'clock Thursday night, October 13, when the door of Rev. Mr. Ryan's mountain home was crushed In. after a shot having been Bred through the front door.

immediately sprang from his bed, grabbed his shotgun, co*cking both barrels, and exclaimed: "What is wanted?" The reply was from the Inner door: "Old man, we want your money, and mean to have It." a second shot was fired, and Ryan exclaimed: "Mother," speaking to his wife, "I am killed! I am shot through the bowels!" Whereupon one barrel of his shotgun was discharged, taking effect in the side of the room, supposed to have been caused by his fall. This caused a halt, and the wife and a son took Kyan to an upstairs room, after which the murderers ransacked the lower part of the house, getting nothing, overlooking money near at hand. STRONG circ*mstantial EVIDENCE pointed to Charles Coon, George Duff, Robert M. Duff, and Perry Drake, for whom warrants were Issued. Drake was arrested quietly at his Constable Gibson and a posse of about sixty went to the residence of George Duff, In Kalntuck, Jackson county, where George Duff.

and Coon were quartered. They had prepared lor an assault, expecting i rouble some time. Coon saw the posqp moving upon the house and coolly notified two females present to leave, as there was going to be a show. Upon the approach of the officers Coon warned them away and Immediately opened Are with a pistol. The Are was returned by the officers, and for a tew minutes bullets dew thick and fast from each party.

The outlaws took refuge In an upstairs room, where Duff was brought down by a shot trom a rifle. The officers then surrounded the house, and wese about to set It on fire when old man Duff, a respectable farmer, prevailed upon coon to surrender, which he dlu, as his ammunition was about exhausted. Robert M. Duff was arrested the same day (list Friday) at his house, near that of his father, by being surprised by he oitlcers, he not having a chance to shoot. On Saturday noon the prisoners were taken to the scene of their crime, Ryan's residence, and a Justice set yesterday Tor their preliminary trial.

Meanwhile George Duff, died at home Sunday nlgnt. The rest of the prisoners were taken to neighbors' houses, where they were kept under Suard until Sunday night, when about three bunred masked men took coon from the officers, and with a rope around his neck HURRIED HIM TO A CONVENIENT TREE. On his way he prayed and made a confession, 1 which is to be received with doubt. The substance Is that he was guilty of participating in the murder; that Bob and Geo. Duff, were along; that Geo.

Duff fired the fatal shot from his (Coon's) revolver. Some say he implicated Drake; others say he did not speak of him. Whatever the confession was, he was immediately hung, dying game. After the banging of Coon, the regulators went after Bob Duff, and hurriedly took him toward the sceno of coon's execution. Shots were fired at the mob either by guards or friends of Duff.

THE MOB SCATTERED Instantly. In the early morning Thursday the body of Bob Duff was found In the public road with his throat cut entirely across and frightful stabs in his chest, almost in sight of thu body of Coon, which was still hanging to the tree. Neither was touched until late Sunday evening, wben a coroner's jury assembled and adjourned without discovering anything, coon, wbo had nofrlendB near, was burled by a farmer. Relatives of Duff took charge of his remains, and burled them near bis home yesterday. Drake was spared, and yesterday taken to the Ryan residence for examination.

A large crowd of armed men were present, determined upon lynching him. He waived examination, and was ordered to jail In Charleston for safe-keeping. After much trouble and danger he reached here to-night under guard of captain Burnett, of the Eureka Detective Agency and a strong posse. ANOTHER LYNCHING. News was brought here this morning saying that Dan.

Cunningham, the Eureka detective, wbo stands charged with having been the instigator of the robbery of Rev. Mr. Kyan and others In Roane and Jackson Counties, was caught yesterday and lynched last night by the vlgllants. It Is certain that there were only seven engaged in the murder and robbery of Rev. Kyan.

Of this number the vlgilants have disposed of Coon, lynched; ueo. Duff, shot In making arrest; Bob Duff, shot and throat cut after arrest, and Drake, hung on way to jail at Spencer. The two Dulls, coon, and Drake confessed. Bob Duff, Just before his death, begged that Drake should not be harmed as he was forced by coon to go with them. Exclteuieut still runs high, and it is evident that others will be arrested tor the murder.

Dluuwaaa mining Speculation. COLLAPSE or 80MB BNTKRPRI8E8 THE GOGBBIO IDLE AND DESTITUTE. A dispatch to the Chicago Evening Journal from Milwaukee says: announcement every few days of some mining enterprise in the Gogebic Iron region calls attention to the fact that things are in a fearful condition on the range. Last year about 100 companies were organized with a total capital of over to And or operate Iron mines on the Gogebic range. There are about ten good mines on this particular range that have iron In paying quantities.

Several of them are notably large producers of the hematite ore. The other ninety organizations or "mines" were many of them started hoU ly for the purpose ot selling out the stock In the excitement. A good many others had good Intentions, and spent vast sums of money trying to And ore. The per cent that succeeded has been very smalL The result has been that all of the wildcat concerns have collapsed In the last six months, and some of the mines that have good prospects have been carried down with the worthless ones. Stock that sold for $5 and 16 a share last spring Is now dally offered for -20 and 25 cenis a share, with, In most cases, no takers.

To make matters worse, the real mines that have shipped ore to market are unable in most cases to collect the money due them, owliuiothe strikes of ml here in the coal and co*ke regions. With the exception ot a half dozen of the biggest mines, all others have been compelled to shut down, owing to lack of funds to operate. Hundreds ot other miners were thrown out of work by the collapse of the wildcat concerns, and still more have truck from time to time for back pay and are now idle. An army of men Is idle aud winter Is at liand. Hundreds ot thousands of dollars were invested by Milwaukee and Wisconsin people lu slocks that are not worm the paper on which they are printed.

In this city, capitalists, cktks, working people and women and children even were Induced to invest In these stocks, and many hardships among the poor have been caused. Attacked In the Dark. A ST. LOUIS SERVANT GIRL TERBIBLY BEATEN AMD CUT WHILB IN BCD. A St.

Louis special, October 19, says: Mary Sllllgo, a German servant In the family of August be ringer, was awakened about 4 o'clock this morning by a man climbing In the kitchen window of her employer's residence. Her room opens off the kitchen. Before she could make any outcry the Mlow bounded across the kitchen and struck her a terrible blow with a club. The bedclothes partly broke the force of the blow, and she was not stunned. She screamed and grasped him by the coat, lie struck her again, breaking the stick.

Then he drew a hatchet from under his coat and hacked her with It. It was dark, and she could only see that her assailant wore a mask made of a pocket handkerchief. She tried to escape, but he struck her with the hatchet several times. While this struggle was going on Mrs. Eberlnger.who was sleeping across the hall, heaid tue noise, opened a window and screamed long and loud.

Kberlnger keeps a dairy, and he and his men were working some distance from the bouse preparing lor their morning distribution of milk. They ran toward the nouse. The would-be murderer heard them and escaped. The girl was found to have received several fearful wounds, but she may recover. To the police she said she was sure Henry Wemken, who had been a driver for the dairy, but who had been discharged, was the man who assaulted her, hough slie could give no reason why ne should Wemken was arrested at ills home, where he was found In bed at 7 o'clock this morning.

His hands were bloody, and there was no blood on his clothing. How the Snow Sheds are Built. From the Truckee (Nev.) Republican. snow sheds to cover the ralllway track have been built at points on the Central Pacific road where it crosses the Sierra. As the trains bound East leave Emigrant Gap they run through one continuous shed for 35 miles.

The Surpose ot the sheds Is to prevent the track being urfad under falling and drifting snow. They secure tuis end, but are themselves the occasion or great Inconvenience, such as the noise, the loss of view, and the confining of the smoke tc the tram. There is nothing peculiar in the construction of these sheds, which have to support only the burden of the snow. But on the Une ot the Canadian Pacific, where the road crosses the Rocky Mountains, sheds of a different construction are needed. Before the road was completed observations In the mountains showed thai avalanches must be provided against.

A single avalanche covered the track for distance ot 1,300 feet and to the depth of 50 feet. The results of these observations was that the company built 4X miles oi snow sheds at an enormous expense. The sheds are constructed as follows: On the high side of thi mountain slope a crib filled with stones is ooa st rue ted. Along the entire length of the sheC and on the opposite side of the track i Umber trestle is erected; strong tlmbei beams are laid from the top of the crtt work to the top of the trestle 4 KM apart, and at an angle representing the slope at the mouAtali as nearly as possible. These are covered over wiu 4-lnch planking and the beams are Braced on ettbei side from the trestle and from the crib.

The cov erlng is placed at such a height ss to give Si fee headway from the under side of the beam to tlx center of the track. The longest ot these sheds 8,700 feet, chasing a sportsmen the Kangely Lake region, in Malas, are chasing largest moose ever seen in the State.
