The Mystery Which Surrounds the Staten Island Tragedy. A‘ QUESTION 0]? IDENTITY. Buttinger’s Murderer May Have Been the Astor House Suicide, or if Not, the Whole Thing May Prove to Be a Big Life Insurance Swindle. N EW'YORK, March 18.—The mystery sur- rounding the finding of a dead body strapped, bound and gagged on the Staten Island shore, near Tottenville, last Wednes- day, has deepened and widened until it overshadows the most pretentious ones of recent years. In the mouth of the corpse was stufied a handkerchief with the in- itials “W. W.” A German passport num- bered 2,780, issued at Dresden, Germany, Dec. 20, 1890, to Carl Emanuel Ruttinger, a. clerk, aged 43, and a receipt for a regis- WILLIAM WRIGHT—FRED EVANS. tered letter postmarked Southampton, England, December, 1890, were found in the pockets. The letter was addressed to Carl Emanuel Ruttinger, 111 Neckar street, Stuttgart. These clews followed up brought out the following facts: . Ruttinger sailed from Liverpool on the Inman line steamship City of Chicago Dec. 31. With him was William Wright, his brother’s brother-in—law. Wright is an Englishman. They went to board at a fash- ionable German. boarding house in West Fifty-eighth street kept by Mr. Neu. They were together until Feb. 1, when Wright went away, taking his luggage with him. He said he was going to Boston, and Rut- tingcr corroborated him in this. The fol- lowing day Ruttinger went. out after breakfast. He never returned. Among the effects of Carl Emanuel Rut- tinger which were ' at Neu’s boarding house was a photograph taken in Ger- many of a group of sportsmen starting on ahunting trip. Prominent in the group are Ruttinger and William \Vright, his friend. This picture, District At- torney Fitzgerald believes, will go along way toward clearing up the mystery of Ruttinger’s death and the disappearance of “Tright. The district attorney’s atten- tion was called by a reporter to the close resemblance between VVright’S face in the photograph and that of Fred Evans, the unidentified Astor House suicide. The Astor House Suicide. Evans registered at the hotel on Feb. 2, late at night. He was found dead, lying on the floor, early the next morning, with his throat cut from ear to ear. He held a new razor in his hand. Everything had been done by Evans to conceal his identity. The band of his hat had been removed, the tailor’s name had been cut from the collar of his coat and pieces had been cut from parts of his collar and shirt. In the mean time a kind hearted woman offered to pay the burial expenses, and had the body removed to Undertaker Daly’s, opposite the morgue. Coroner Levy would not agree to this arrangement, and Under- taker Duify took charge 01? the body, and kept it at his shop several days awaiting identification. There was no money forth— coming to pay the expenses of burial and Evans’ body was sent to the morgue. Per- rin H. Sumner, who became notorious through his identification of the old man who committed suicide at the Getty House in Yonkers as James H. Edgar, saw Evans’ body at the morgue, and identified it as George H. Edgar, the old man’s nephew. At the inquest Sumner failed to substan— tiate the identification. Evans was buried in Potter’s field. Mr. Mason, the ofi‘icial photographer at Bellevue hospital, took a picture of Evans, which is now in the gal- lery of the unknown dead at the morgue. District Attorney Fitzgerald became con- vinced from what he had heard that there was more in the resemblance of “Wright and Evans than mere coincidence, and started out with the photograph of Wright to investigate the latest clew. He first got the official description of Evans from the morgue. It is as follows: “Five feet six inches tall; twenty-three years old; curly blond hair, blue eyes, small blond mustache, red cheeks, Roman nose; slim built, weight 120 pounds; small hands and feet; dressed in gray merino underclothes and gray socks.” Identical with “'right. This description tallies in almost every particular with that given of Wright by Mr. Neu, the boarding house keeper with whom VVIight boarded, to the Staten Island police, which is as follows: Five feet six inches tall, weight 125 pounds, blue eyes, bushy flaxen hair, inclined to curl; very slight mustache, as light or lighter than the hair; sharp nose, thin lips, small chin, hands and feet. Speaks with strong English accent; efleminate manner and voice; appears to besixteen or seven- teen years old, dresses quietly and smokes cigarettes. ’ ’ The district attorney got the consent of Warden Fallon to take the photograph of Evans away with him, and hurried in a. carriage to the house of Mr. Neu. The in— stant that Mr. Neu’s eye fell upon Evans’ picture he said that it was Wright. Mr. Fitzgerald told him it was the face of a dead man and to examine the features in detail. Mr. Neu did so, and the more he studied Evans’ features the more he be-' came convinced that he was looking at Wright’s face as it would appear after death. \Vith this much established Mr. Fitzgerald went to Undertaker Daly’s and showed him the group picture. , “Is there any one in that picture that you ever saw?” asked Mr. Fitzgerald. “Yes,” replied Daly, without a moment’s hesitation; “the little fellow is Fred Evans, the Astor House suicide.” “Are you sure?” inquired the district at. tomey. “I cannot be mistaken,” replied the un- dertaker. These were two strong links in the chain which pointed to the identity of the two men. Further proof was sought. Under— taker Dufl" y was visited. lie looked at \Vright’s picture and said that it was cer- tainly Fred Evnns’. Drifi'y studied Evans’ features carefully when the body was in his Show; So that he might remember in 3 case he should be called upon later to de- scribe them by some of the dead man's friends. The district attorney would not leave any stone unturned, and drove to the coroner’s office. Several reporters who have seen Evans at the Astor House and morgue picked out Wright as Evans in the group photo- graph. Coroner Levy took a long look at the photograph before ex pressing his opin- ion, and then said: "There is certainly a remarkable resemblance between the two faces. If it is simply chance it is the most remarkable thing I ever Learrkaof.” The Theory of Suicide. Wherever the district attorney went con— firmatory evidence was received that Wright and Evans were the same person. The last place visited was the Astor House. Mr. Keith and several clerks and porters all picked Wright out of the picture as Evans. Mr. Fitzgerald did not care to go further. He was satisfied that he had found \Vright, and that he is now in Pot- ter’s Field onVVard’s Island. If it is true that lVright and Evans are one it does not settle the question of the murder of Ruttinger, if he was murdered, ’ but complicates it still further. Wright apparently goes to Boston on Feb. 1. But- tinger is the authority for this. Ruttin- ger disappears on Feb. 2, and is next heard of lying dead in the mud near Elliot’s dock. Wright or Evans cuts his throat in the Astor House on the morning of Feb. 3. Dr. \Valser, who analyzed the contents of the stomach of Ruttinger, is positive that a narcotic or anaesthetic of some kind was used before he was killed. Ruttingei would be harmless if in a stupor, and a child could have killed him. It would have taken more than a child’s strength to have lifted Ruttinger’s body into a. boat and dropped it into the Inud bank. lVright may have been stronger than he looked, and with the fear that came upon him aficr committing the terrible crime he may have had strength enough to do what would have been ordinarily impossible for him. Supposing that he killed Ruttinger, what is more natural than‘that the face of the dead man should haunt him? Ruttinger had paid his board bills, and on Feb. 1 had given him $100 to start in business with in Boston. W'right had repaid the kindness with murder, and the condition of the dead man’s clothes indicated that the motive was robbery. “Then Wright came back to this city from Tottenville and passed the places where he and Ruttinger had been, what is more natural than that the thought of suicide should enter his mind, and when once there what else could he do than go to the Astor House and kill himself? Is It an Insurance Swindle? But here comes in another complication. There is an insurance policy in existence somewhere made in favor of Ruttinger’s wife in Germany for $22,500. The policy was issued in the Berlin office of the Equit— able Life assurance shortly before Ruttin- gcr came to this country. W. E. Johnson, of this city, who has charge of the foreign business of this company, said that the policy had been issued last November and the matter was being investigated by their agent in Europe. The identity of Ruttin- ger will have to be fully established before this money is paid. The supposition that the body is a dummy to fleece the insurance compan- ies instead of Ruttinger’s is being thor- oughly investigated by the police. There are facts to show that it might be the body of Charles Schneider, the mate of the ship Monsoon. This ship sailed March 10 from Perth ~Amboy for Copenhagen with oil. Henry \Vilms is the. captain and John Ruger & Co., 60 New street, the agents. The ship arrived here Nov. 10, unloaded, and was ”tied up at the National storage dock in Communipaw until Feb. 23, when she dropped down to Perth Amboy and was loaded. Mate Schneider was taken sick with pleurisy in January, and was at the Long Island hospital for a month. He went back to the vessel at Perth Amboy, and it is said that he left the ship ina rowboat and did not return. The ship sailed without him. Two men identified Ruttinger’s body as Schneider on Thurs- day, and several others noticed the resem- blance on Sunday. - The facts remain—Carl Ruttinger is dead, murdered most strangely. Or if not, he had a double so wonderfully like as to deny belief. William Wright has disappeared. “Fred Evans,” suicide, so like him in description as to make the re— semblance no less strong than that be- tween Ruttinger and the Arthur Kills corpse, lies in the Potter’s field. If this amazing theory be true—if VVill- iam Wright was “Fred Evans”—~the credit for having advanced it and obtained the proof in its support will rest with District Attorney Fitzgerald, of Richmond county. An Alsatian Riot. PARIS, March 18.—A riot of quite a seri- ous character is reported to have occurred at Haguenau, in Alsace. An attempt was made by the police to arrest a Frenchman who had come to visit some relatives in Haguenau, but who was unable to show a passport. The Frenchman’s friends rallied to his defense, and the clamor attracting a crowd, the police were compelled to use considerable violence in dispersing them. The Frenchman was sent back across the frontier after a brief detention, it being. apparent that he had no improper motive in his visit to Haguenau. Alsace is gen- erally in a very peaceful condition, but the same cannot be said of Lorraine, where the people have never given up their attach- ment for France and their determination to be united to that country. Captain Lyall’s llIurderer to Die. LIVERPOOL, March 18.—Bhergwar, the Lascar who murdered Captain Lyall, of the ship Buckingham, from Dundee for New York, in November last, was Tues- day sentenced to death for the murder. Lyall was a young Scotchman, and mak- ing his honeymoon voyage with his young wife, when the Lascar killed him in the cabin of the ship. The body was buried at sea. The vessel arrived in New York Dec. 8, and the Lascar was sent back to Eng- land for trial. ’ Stanley Indignaut. SAN F lANCISCO, =March 18.—H. M. Stan- ley’s body servant, the little Zanzibar boy called Selah, was ordered out of the Cali- fornia theater, the usher saying “niggers” were not admitted. H2 .remonstrated against such treatment. This angered the usher, who kicked the boy and threw him down stairs. Sclali went back to the ho- tel, aud his woeful face attracted Stanley’s attention and he was indignant when he learned the story. A .l'romiueut 0d Fellow Dead. INDIANAPOLIS, Maren 18.——John W. Mc- Quiddy, grand instructor of the Inde- pendent Order of Odd Fellows of this state, died at his home in this city of hardening of the brain. He had been ill for many months, and his death had been expected. He was one of the most promi- llcutUtlrl Follows in the United States, having been identified with the active management of the order for many years. l ALBANY LEGISLATION. Proceedings in the Senate and in tho . Assembly. ALBANY, March 18.—In the senate: Mr. Saxton’s amendment to the ballot reform bill was the special order, and at his re- quest the bill was progressed, with the un- derstanding that on third reading it should have full discussion. The finance committee reported Mr. Cog- geshall’s bill appropriating $5,000 for the promotion of dairy experiments. Mr. Richardson’s Middletown armory bill was also reported favorably. Mr. Cooney’s bill, exempting real estate aned by volunteer firemen’s associatibns up to the sum of $15,000 from taxation, so amended as to exempt only from local tax- ation, was passed. Mr. Chase’s bill to appropriate $600,000 for the continuing of work on the state :apitol, and detailing the work to be con— tinned and the supervision to be exercised. by the capitol commission, was passed. There were but two negative votes—Messrs. Hunter and Hendrickson. In the Assembly. Bills passed: Mr. Chase’s, amending the penal code relating to threatening letters; Mr. O’Connor’s, relative to the publication of the colonial statutes, from the founda- tion of New York colony to the adoption of the first state constitution. When Mr. Hildreth’s proposed measure to regulate the sale of ale, beer and wine at public gardens came up, Mr. Schaaf moved that the bill be recemmitted to the committee on excise. After some discus- sion the motion to recommit was lost by a. vote of 50 yeas to 57 nays. The bill was lost by a vote of 64 yeas to 30 Days. “lent Suddenly Insane. RACINE, Wis, March 18.——J. H. Farmer, : of Milwukee, representing himself as an agent of the New York Life Insurance company, went suddenly insane last night and was placed under restraint. He at- tacked the proprietor, employes and guests of the Merchants’ hotel and tried to de- stroy the furniture. He had been placed in the asylum at W'auwatosa by his friends, and since his release had been try- ing to collect evidence showing that he had been sane all the time and had been unlawfully confined. Thirteen States \Vant Him. WIIEELING, March 18.—John Moony, the noted desperado, burglar and assassin, wanted in this and twelve other states for various crimes, was captured here by the police while sitting in his mother’s house. His story is a remarkable one. The scenes of his operations lay in many cities, in- cluding \theling, Cincinnati, St. Louis, Pittsburg, Baltimore, Washington and many others. In nearly a. dozen states there are standing rewards for his capture. Shot Dead by Her Lover. DALLAS, March 18.———Mrs. Delia Close, of Vinton. Ia., was shot and killed here by George Martin, a horse trader. Martin has been paying attention to her, and as she had determined to go to her mother at Vinton he went to her boarding house, and after a. short conversation shot her in the head four times. He escaped to the Trinity river bottom, where it is believed he has ended his own life, which he at— tempted to take about a year ago. A New York Town in Flames. HIGHLAND, March 18.——A fire here de- stroyed fourteen places of business, in- cluding the town hall and postoflice. The loss is placed at $90,000. Fourteen families 'wei'c rendered homeless.
