Mrs. Nack Goes Thorn One Better by Declaring That Guldensuppe Is Still Alive and Will Appear In Court During Her Trial. .New York, July 15.—A story to the ef- fect that Martin Thorn had made an- other confession of the murder of Wil- liam Guldensuppe, this time to a. fellow prisoner in the Tombs, was going the rounds today. The story came originally from the district attorney’s office, one of the em- ployees of which insisted on the truth of the alleged confession. Warden O'Shea of the Tombs was informed of it, and the rumor quickly spread through- out the prison. “Such a claim has been made,” the warden said today, “but Thorn has not made any confession to me nor do I be- lieve he has confessed to any one. As I understand the story, Thorn is alleged to have taken another prisoner, an old man who occupies the hospital ward with him, into his confidence and told him a yarn about the murder similar to that which he told Gartha, the bar- ber. I asked Thorn about it, and he de- nied having done so. “In spite of that fact, however, I be- lieve the prosecution insists that he did so. I cannot give you the named the other prisoner, but I know that he is given to romancing.” Just asThorn’s spirits seem to be growing more depressed those of Mrs. Nack are on the rise. For the first few days after her arrival at the Tombs she seemed to become despondent. The pris- on diet disagreed with her, and she ex— pressed the fear that she would die in the Tombs. She got away from the pris- on diet, however, last night, ordering and paying for her first meal at supper, and she ordered and paid for her break- fast this morning. The change was caused by the fact that the money found in her possession when arrested was turned over to her by the police, as well as the keys of her flat in Ninth avenue. Says Guldensuppe Is Alive. The moment Mrs. Nack received the keys she asked Matron Smith to go to the flat and bring her clothing. Matron Smith did so, and on entering the place was surprised at what she found. There were four big trunks filled to the top with expensive dresses and an assortment of underclothing that ac- tually dazzled the matron’s eyes. Mrs. Nack’s clothing was taken to the Tombs by the matron, and Mrs. Nack lost no time in changing her ap- parel. It made a great change in her appearance, and from that moment her drooping spirits began to revive. She still insists that Guldensuppe is alive and that he will be in the court— room when the day of her trial arrives. The household goods and other effects of Mrs. Nack were moved from her flat today. This will reliev‘e Sergeant James Reilly, who has been in charge of the flat ever since the arrest of Mrs. Nack. The goods will be stored. Acting Inspector O’Brien said today that it was a. 13-year—old girl, not a boy, who figured so prominently in the alleged finding of Guldensuppe’s head yesterday. “I am still investigating the Branch- port story,” said O’Brien. “The others seem to offer no reason for investigat- mg. “I sent Detectives Stransky and Schindler to locate the girl, whose name I did not know. Information reached me that she was employed in an east side cigar factory. My instructions to Stransky were to see the girl and get from her the story, and if it appeared worthy of belief to take her to Branch- port and endeavor to find the head. . ”I understand that Stransky did find the girl and that he thought there was sufficient in her story to warrant in— vestigation. “I have not heard a. word from Stran- sky since he left the city, and I can only account for his silence by his hav- ing been storm bound along the Jersey coast." Still Another Head. After hearing the story of James Ce- par, a ragpicker, the Brooklyn police were led to believe today that they knew where to find the head of William Guldensuppe. The head of Guldensuppe, they be- lieve, is now at the bottom of Newtown creek. It was tossed into the cmek by a German who found it. Cepar, who told the police of the story, said that he and the German were at work on a. dump at Scott ave- nue and Newtown creek early today. In searching through the pile of refuse, Cepar said, be dug up a package. Upon opening it, the two discovered a. human head. It was that of a. man with a dark mustache. Cepar was so excited that he couldn‘t remember much about the head or the covering. He saw, however, a. cut in one cheek. The German, he said, was frightened too. He wrapped a newspa- per around the head and tossed it. into the creek. Cepar lives at 112 Richardson street, Williamsburg. He did not know the German’s name. He described him as about 50 years old, 5 feet 61/9 inches in height and dressed in old dark clothing. The German left the dump a half hour after the finding of the head. Then Cepar went to the Stagg Street police station and told the story. . John Hoev’s Place Leased. Long Branch, July 15.—Mrs. O'Dono- hue, widow of Joseph J.

Many Norwalk People Give Expression toil: and with Good Reason. ' The remarkable cures accomplished in N orwalk during the last seven months are something to astonish and convince the most skeptical. No won- der the people believe in it; no wonder a prominent druggist lately said: ‘Be- lief in California Catarrh Cure is an article of faith in the Norwalks, be- cause people know for themselves,with- out regard to What any interested parties say, of cures it. has wrought among their friends and neighbors. ” Why 1 People have suffered for years, and never dreamed they could get any relief by using anything and some day a friend says: “California Catarrh Cure cured me, it will cure you, and you won’t have to wait to find out about it either. It relieves at once. ” Here are the words of one of your neighbors now, telling why she be- lieves in it. You know that it is true because you know her. Mrs. John Lycett, 21 High street, Norwalk, says: “My daughter, Violet, has been troubled since childhood with catarrh, until her whole head seemed more or less diseased. She had be- gun to be a little deaf, and suffered much with severe headaches so that we have had to keep her out of school a good deal. I sent her to Plaistcd’s drug store, South Nor- walk after a bottle of California Catarrh Cure and she commenced using_it. Its beneficial effects have been simply wonderful. It has helped her from the first in every way. I have not heard her complain of a headache for a long time, and by the time she has finished her first bottle, I feel confident that she will be cured. ” Hay fever is entirely prevented by the use of this wonderful medicine, and when it is used colds never "‘ hang on, ” but disappear promptly.

The English Newspapers Are A ngered by Sherman‘s Note to Ray. London, July 16. —~Yv’hile suing the general public here the tone of Secre- tary Sherman‘s letter to Embassador Hay regarding the Bering sea seal regu- lations is greatly resumed, your corre- spcndcnt is in a position to say that, Whatever criticism the British govern- ment may have to make on the phrase- ology of the. communication, the letter has not in any way affected unfavora- bly the negotiations which Colonel I-lay has been conducting. A conference will be held in V‘Vashingtcn during the au— tumn, at which the United States, Great Britain. Russia and Japan will be rep- resented. Since the presentation of Secretary Sherman’s note to Lord Salisbury, Em- bassador Hay has had repeated confer— ences with the British prime minister, all of which have been of the most friendly character. The most concilia— tory spirit is displayed in the matter by the British foreign office, as is shown by the decision to hold a conference. which, although not yet formally an- nounced, may be regarded as settled. It may also be taken for granted that Canada does not oppose this decision. Mr. Davies, the Canadian minister of marine, in an interview today. said: “We regard the latest proposals of the United States as entirely reasonable. There is the friendliest feeling with re- gard to the negotiations between the two governments, and, in view of this. the two peoples should not be resentful. I think this is a reasonable view to take of the matter." The evening newspapers show much anger over the published letter of Sec- retary Sherman. The halfpenny jour- nals issue sensational placards bearing such lines as “Twisting the Lion’s Tail Again” and "America Shrieks at Eng- land.” These are fair samples of their furious rhetoric. pers deal with the situation editorially. The Globe, in an article headed ”Yan- kee Insolence," says: “The memories of Cleveland’s imper- tinent message are all revived by the extraordinary and insulting dispatch which Mr. Sherman has permitted to find its way into the papers. IVaiving the merits of the question. which, for- tunately, is one for the naturalists, the astonishing tone of Mr. Sherman is in defiance not only of the usages of diplo- macy, but of the maxims of ordinary civility. Englishmen will be glad to see that Lord Salisbury has, so far as a pa— trol of the seal fisheries is concerned. treated the message as though it had never been sent. If he were to go a step further and to direct Sir Julian Paunce— fote to intimate to Mr. McKinley that her majesty’s government declines to receive dispatches couched in such lan- guage and could only reply to the next by handing Colonel Hay his passports, the action would be indorsed by the complete approval of the nation.” The Explosion In the Italian Church. New York, July 16.—The three men injured by a gas explosion in the base- ment of the Church of Our Lady of the Rosary of Pompeii in Sullivan street. still in the St. Vincent hospital, will all recover.
