[horn and Mrs. Nack Both- Refuse to
. Plead to Indictment.
THE couars INSTRUCTIONS.
Be Directed the Entry “Not Guilty”—A
Novel Mode of. Procedure—A Fur-
ther Protest Against the Juris-
diction of New York County.
New York, July 30.-—-Ma.rtin Thorn
and Augusta Nack, the accused mur-
derers of William Guldensuppe, the
Turkish bath rubber, had a little change
from their everyday life in the Tombs
today when they were arraigned in
part one, general sessions, to phead to
the indictment charging them with
murder in the first degree. The plead-
ing had long been delayed awaiting
Judge Newburger’s decision dismissing
the demurrer to the indictments.
Mrs. Nack was informed from reading
the papers of the decision that the case
can be tried in this county. She ex-
pressed herself as being pleased to have
the trial come off in this city. ‘,
Thorn read all the'papers, but said
i nothing that‘ could be construed into
any opinion on the subject. Mrs. Nack’s
preference is based solely on her liking
for her quarters in the Tombs. She de-
clared that she felt quite at home, be-
cause it was a convenient place where
her friends Could call on her.
Mrs. Nack held something of a. levee
in the hospital. ward of the. prison be—
fore she read. the decision. She had no
less than five callers, among them a
number of witnesses who are expected
to testify for the people.
These visitors included Henry Stewart
., and Mrs. Stewart, who live on the'top
' flat at 439 Ninth avenue, Where Mrs.
. Nack lived when Guldensuppe disap-
peared; Mrs. Schenck of 445 Ninth av-
."= enue, and Paul and Pauline Nenkin.,
Mrs. Nack was feeling in good spirits
when she began early today to deck
herself in a becoming fashion for her
appearance in court. She has the most
complete confidence, it is said, ”in her
ultimate acquittal.
A Novel Stand.
When court was opened by Judge
Newburger it was found that counsel
for the prisoners were prepared to take
a novel stand. They said—both William
F. Howe and Frederick B. House—that
they would be mute and allow the court
to direct the entry of the only plea. pos-
sible for a capital charge, not guilty. In
addition to this Mr. House still showed
fight on the questions which were
raised on the demurrer by handing up
the following formal plea. The lawyer
styled it a “plea,” though it was really
a formal announcement of. a refusal to
plead to the charge in this county.
_ Stripped of the introductory verbiage
the plea was as follows:
“The defendant, Augusta Nack,
through her counsel, Friend'and Gross-
man, doth plead as follows:
“First—That the said indictment does
not conform substantially to the re—
quirements of sections 275 and 276 of
the code of criminal procedure.
“Second—That the said indictment
charges more than one crime within the
meaning of section 278 or 279 of the
code of criminal procedure.
“Third—That the facts stated in said
indictment do not constitute a crime.
“Fourth—That the crime set forth in
the indictment was committed in the
county of Queens and not within the
city and the county of New York, and,
therefore, not within the jurisdiction of
the court of general sessions of the
peace, in and for the city and county of
New York, or in any other court having
jurisdiction in said city and county."
The Prisoners Arraigned. _
There was but a small crowd in the
courtroom when Clerk Edward Hall
called out:
“Martin Thorn and Augusta Nack to
the bar!"
When the pair appeared, it was seen
that Mrs. Nack wore a. bell shaped
sailor straw hat with a black hand. She
was dressed in a handsome black silk
dress with large sleeves. Martin Thorn
had on the same clothes which he wore
at the previous arraignment. His face
was covered with a. week’s growth of
beard. .
Mr. Howe arose when his client was
called to plead, and after expressing his
gratification at the manner in which the
demurrer had been decided, he said:
“Your Honor, we stand mute to the
charge."
“Enter a plea of ‘not guilty,’ " ordered
the court.
Mr. House read the plea. he had pre-
pared and asked to have it entered as
a plea. The court refused to have it
entered on the records. Mr. House took
an exception.
Mr. Howe wished to be informed when
the case of Martin Thorn would be put
on the calendar. “1 am ready to pro-
ceed tomorrow," he said. The court re-
plied that the question was hardly a
fair one, as the day was set aside only
for the pleading.
The prisoners were taken directly
back to the Tombs. Neither spoke or
even looked at the other while in the
courtroom.

Our Readers Are Face to
Face‘With an Unavoid-
able-Question.
When the great Hume," the free-
thinker, was asked by a lady at Bath,
Eng., whom would he depend upon the
more, servants who conscientiously be-
lieved, in the truths of eternal revela-
tion, or those who professed to hold his
own opinions, he frankly answered the
former. ,
When our readers are asked whose
statements can be depended upon the
more, scores of our citizens or one or
two desultory selections picked at hap
hazard from our broad Republic, the
answer must frankly be, N orwalk
people every time. - The only state-
ments that appear at the foot of any
proprietary medicine advertisements in
N orwalk papers, obtained from a pure:
1y local source, are these appended to
the readingnotices published by Doan’s

parent 'to waste time mentioning it.

Raluvay Experiences a Night of Terror.
Other Points Affected. b ‘
Rahway, N. J., July Bil—Residents of
Rahway spent a. night of terror. The
river overflowed its banks as a result
of the unprecedented rainfall, and the
water rose“ so rapidly, that it Was six
feet deep in the principal streets. Short-
ly after midnight the police launched
boats and rowed those who were im-
prisoned in their houses to points of
safety. '
Never before has the river risen so
fast or rushed through the city so
fiercely. Everything that was loose was
carried away. ,
Barns, cigar signs, peanut stands and
a policeman were whirled away by the
torrent, and only the policeman was
rescued. ‘ '
The fire alarm bellswere rung and
everybody was advised to be dressed
and ready to leave home at a. moment's
notice.
_In the meantime the waters were
gaining ground, and as they rushed
through the city they whirled along
with a roar.
Suddenly there was a terrific report,
like that of an explosion. '
“Milton dam has broken!" some one
shouted, and the cry was taken up and
passed from mouth to mouth, spreading
terror through the city.
Almost simultaneously a huge wave
swept along the top of mo river, but
after it. had passed the water fell back
somewhat.
Many had to swim to the places where
their boats were tied.
Max Schmidt, who lives on Bridge
street, attempted to leave his house be-
fore the boatmen arrived. He fell into
six feet. 0‘I water and was carried rapid-
ly away, ut was rescued half dead by
a boatman who rowed after him.
Traffic on the Pennsylvania railroad
was stopped. The water had risen over
the piers of the Pennsylvania railroad
bridge before midnight, threatening to
carry it away. The water was also
rushing over‘the Bridge street bridge,
which is built of stone. The damage
will amount to many thousands of dol—
lars.
At Milton, a suburb of Rahway, sit-
uated below the lake, the inhabitants
sat up all night, fearing a. break in the
dam. .
Reports from Elizabeth, Bound Brook
and many other New Jersey towns indi—
cate a similar condition of affairs. In
Elizabeth the water was six feet deep
in some streets. 7
