E XPERI ENCES ’
GO WITH
CH EAP GOODS,
But sometimes they are
something terrible—~particu-
larly to the serious minded
person who has been led into
buying something cheap just
because it is CHEAP.
The astute shopper soon
learns that real bargains for
those who seek really good
goods are generally those that
are sold toward the end of the
season to make room for new
fabrics, and to avoid the dis-
aster of a change in styles.
Occasionally you’ll find a
store where bargains con-
staritly abound, and where no
great fuss is made over them
from the fact of it’s being an
every day occurrence.
'To—day our ‘ short talk ’ is
of Black Figured Mohair-s—
the scarcest things on earth——
and most desirable. There’s
a very nice variety, and at
less price than they were ever
offered before. Tact, and
‘knowing how,’ have made
them so.
Black Silk Grenadinesw
our own importation, 45~
inches wide, plain grounds,
brocaded with dots, wavy
designs, stripes and diagcnal
effects. Prices made low.
There’s a very choice lot of
Taffeta Silks, for waists ill
black and white and gray'an d
White check, hair lines, and
stripes, upon which Fashion
has set the seal of approval.
Another line of Pin' Head
Checks, in black and white,
plaided with light and dar {
navy, red and navy, dark
navy and white. These are
also very low.
Also Outing Suit Stuffs——
very complete in variety—'
serges, diagonals, ' cheviots,
etc., in just the colors most
wanted—cream, red, navy
and blacks.
There’s almost no end to
the bargains in Colored Dress
Goods. Even the choicest of
them are being sold at out
prices. A line of handsome
Mixtures, 45 inches wide, all
wool, were 59 cents a yard,
now 29 cents. .
THE Bil) SON lS-GUlLTY
The Good Hang Son Is Also Guilty,
and So Also Is Neither.
ACCOMPLIOE on) THE DEED.
All of These Theories and Others Are Ad-
vanced In Brooklyn’s Murder Mys-
tery, \Vith Nothing to Substan-
tiate Any One of Them.
NEW YORK, June 26.——There were sev-
eral new phases of the Henry murder mys-
tery today. According to some reports,
William Henry, the son of the old miser,
was convicted beyond the shadow of a
doubt; other reports made Walter the
criminal; others reasoned cut that neither
William nor Walter, but an accomplice of
the former, committed the deed.
" According to other accounts, Superin-
tendent McKclvey was contemplating
having the old miser’s body exhumed in
order to get a photograph of the hand.
This was to see whether-or not the hand
was the same as that which made the
bloody imprint on the walls of the house
near where the body was found.
He was also to have Walter’s hand
photographed, as well as William’s, to see
whether either of them could have made
the impression. Both were credited with
having peculiar hands, and science was to
be called in to determine the great ques-
ticn.
William Henry, according to another re-
port, confessed to his brother Walter that
he had committed the murder. The con-
iession is said to have been made after the
commission of the crime, and that this in
itself accounted for Walter not having
been called to the witness stand to testify
at the inquest. '
Theories! Theories! Theories!
His failure to have William arrested on
the Friday night when he called at the
Flatbush house and the fact that he did
not inforjn the police of the confession
made him an accessory to the murder aft-
er the fact. ’ .
And the story intended to make stronger
the chain of evidence against William is
the aBeged fact that Convict Moran, at
one time William’s friend and associate
and who confessed having cracked the safe
in the New York restaurant where Wil-
liam was employed as cashier, had been
seen at the inquest. The theory is that
perhaps William had an accomplice in the
murderand that Moran may know a good
deal about it.
It is said that the famous letter alleged
to have been written by the father against
William and handed to Walter when the
latter called at the miser’s house the night
before the murder was actually in Walter’s
possession long before that time.
It is also said that several persons to
whom Walter showed the letter before the
time he told the police he had receivedolt
will come forward at the right moment
and testify to the facts.
Dampers For Rumors.
The last story, but by no means the
least sensational, was to the eflechthat in
sea'hing the miser's' house again Captain
Kitzer of the De Kalb Avenue station had
found in the kitchen chimney a bloody
sleeve. It was said to have belonged to
William at one time.
Superintendent McKelvey said that he
had no intention of having the Iniser’s
body exhumed.
“Is there a‘hy truth in the story that
William confessed the murder to his broth-
er Walter?" he was asked.
“Not a particle,” the superintendent
answered.
“Is it a fact, so far as you know, that
Walter ever showed that letter to any one
before handing it over to the police?”
“I do not believe he ever showed it to
anybody. Had he done so we should have
heard of it before this.”
“Was any bloody sleeve found in the
house, or has anything in the way of cloth-
ingbecn found, other than the shirt and
collar taken from William and submitted
to Chemist Eaton?”
“We found absolutely nothhig,” the su-
perintendent said, “other than the arti-
cles you name. We did not find a bloody
sleeve. New I will anticipate the next
question. We are satisfied that the man
Moran was not at the inquest. “
As to the story of the alleged confession,
Mr. Backus is not in town to deny it.
William is in Raymond Street jail and re-
fuses tc be seen.
Another Police Suggestion Exploded.
‘ In trying to harmonize their theory that
the attack on the old miser was made on
Wednesday night with the statement of
Drs. Shepard and Keno, that hc'could not
have been killed earlier than on Thursday
noon, but was most probablrkilled even
later than that, the police advanced the ex-
planation today that the assassin mi ht
have done his work on Wednesday 1315 t,
the wounded man languished for a num-
ber of hours, and died some time after
noon on Thursday.
This would bring the death within the
maximum limit prescribed by the patho-
logical scientists. In order to give coher—
ence to this view, the police are trying to
bring the time of the assault down as near
to Thursday noon as possible. That is
why they are tryin to make it on Thurs-
day morning a 11 16 before 7 a. m., the
time Barber Sehwdtheim thinks he saw
William leaving in a hurry. If they could
make this theory stick, they could use the
scientists" testimony to show that the
murder could not. haVe been congnitted
10 before William left, for the reason
the the old 'miser could not have lived
long after being hit. When spoken to
about the matter, however, Dr. Shepard
spoiled this explanation by saying: '
“After receiving these- wounds the man
could not possibl have lived more than a
few minutes. ‘he hemorrhage alone
would have killed him in loss than half an
hour. I think he was dead when the as-
sassin let go of him.”

ALCOHOL AND CIGARETTE.
Harmless While Apart, They Provo Dan-
gerous In Combination.
NEW YORK, Juno 26.—-—Thre’e persons
were seriously burned by an explosion of
alcohol in the saloon of Louis Muller, 137
Madison street, today.
Charles Muller was filling an alcohol
demijohn behind tlle bar when his brother
Abraham threw away a lighted cigarette.
A spark ignited the alcohol, which flared
up in Oharles’ face. He beat it back and
tried to stamp out the flames that had al-
ready spread on the floor. He was terribly
burned about the face, legs and arms.
‘When he saw that his clothing was on
fire, he rushed from $119 solo n and down
Madison street to ordon . Kiedanz’s
digi store, a block below.
ere water was thrown over him, and
heqvas carried to a rear room to await the
arrival of an ambulance. Meanwhile
Abraham Muller had picked .up the‘blaz-
ing dcmijohu, and carrying it into the
street had thrown it into the gutter. His
left arm was badly burned.
As he threw down the deln'ljohu the
flames caught the dress of 8~year—cld Katie
Shea. Before the excited neighbors could
put the fire out she was badly burned
about the face and hands.
An alarm and ambulance call were
turned in. Engines 15 and 9 and hook
and ladder trucks 6 and 18 responded, as
did two Gouvencur hospital ambulances. ,
. Katie Shea and Charles Muller Were
taken to the hospital, while Abraham
Muller’s burns were dressed at the drug
store, and he. was allowed to go to his
home. ’
It is thought that Charles Muller and
Katie Shea will recover.
A BPETISH SHIP ssIst:
American Sailor Brings Suit For Damages
For Ill Treatment.
GALVEsTon, Juno 26,—The four masted
British ship Andriua, from Calcutta, was
seized and a. United States marshal put in
charge. Juan Ridcz, a sailor, brought
suit in the United States district court for
$50,000 damages for personal injuries sus-
tained under direction of the Andrina’s
master, Benjamin F. Smith. He says he
is a resident of San Diego, Cal.; that be
shipped from Calcutta for Galveston, and
thence to some port in the United King-
dom.
He says the articles he signed did not
give the ship’s officers license to ill treat
him. He then recites how on various oc—
casions he was beaten over the head with
a belaying pin. Iron handcuffs were placed
on his wrists, and he was fastened to the
ceiling so that he could partially reach the
floor and was compelled to remain in that
position 48 hours, with only ten hours’
rest, causing great pain and permanent
injlu'y to health.
