McLaughlin Breaking Down.
NEW YORK, J 11110 21. —Ex-InSpector Mc-
Laughlin gives every evidence that theI
strain of the past few weeks has proved
too much for him, and that he is finally
breaking down under it. Warden Fallon
said that McLaughlin seemed to have
aged five years since his confinement.
“His eyes were red,” he said, “and dark
circles were under them. He seems very
wretched. I suppose the strain has been
telling on him. ”

The Henry Case No Longer Brother
Against Brother.
POLICE sssr'rrswsvrosricr
hey Still Believe That “\Vlcked Son"
Wimam Murdered the Miser; but, Al-
though Blood Must Have Spurt-
ed, None “’as on H15 Clothing.
BROOKLYN, June 21.——With a. new meen~
ing the police now ask the question, “Who
killed Charles W. Henry, the rich miser,
who was found in his home, 95 South
Portland avenue, on Friday with his skull
crushed in and his face hacked to pieces?”
Since the setback the coroner’s jury gave
them by cxonerating William they have
begun to realize that they have by no
means solved the mystery. The police will
nevertheless be restless in trying to con-
vict William. Police Inspector McLaugh-
lin said: “I have decided opinions on this
matter. I am convinced William is guilty.
We will go to work to try to strengthen
our case before it comes up in the police
court.”
District Attorney Ridgway said: “We
will prosecute William in the police court
with all the resources at our command.
Beforohis examination we have at least
two weeks. During that time we may be
able to learn considerable.”
William as Gay as a. Lark.
Police Superintendent McKclvoy is los-
ing his temper. He said: “I have not/h-
ing to say. The newspapers can hence-
forth publish whnt they please. I will say
no more; henceforth not a word.”
William slept well, and, his keepers re-
port, was as guy as a lark. He whistled in
his cell and ate with a heartiness he has
not yet displayed. When he is arraigned,
he will be remanded for two weeks. This
action will be taken on the request of
Lawyer Foster L. Backus, who has to
leave the city. At the end of the two
weeks the police and the defense will
again meet in contest, but this time before
Police Justice Hoggorty. If that magis-
trate should discharge William, as he is
likely to do unless meanwhile some good
cvidélicc is unearthed, the authorities will
go before the grand jury. Mr. Backus,
however, will Oppose indictment.
Murderer Must B ave Been Bloodstained.
One important point which District At-
torney Ridgway failed to bring out at the
inquest was in what condition must have
been the clothing of the murderer after he
had killed his victim. County Physician
Shepard made the autopsy and on the wit-
ness stand told how, in his opinion, the;
murder had been committed. He de-
seiibcd graphically how the murderer
must. five clutched the throat of the miscr
with his left 1 .ztnd and with the right hand
1‘11 incd blow nftor blow with a hatchet or
other she '11'p wo..pon upon the head of his
victim. He told that 18 wounds had been
inflicted; that the skull hit-(l boon crushed
in. '
Had he bccn as mod :1 few more ,ques—
tions, be vould have shown beyond the
shadow of :1 doubt that William Henry,
the so called “bad son” of the murdered
man, had not committed the crime. The
omitted questions, however, were asked
Dr. Shepard later by a. reporter. He said
that of half :1 dozen blows any one of them
would have been sufficient to cause death.
He said further that with every blow
struck the blood of the victim must have
spurted out from the wound, and that the
brains Of the murdered man must have
gone in the same manner.
For a. man to stand over another and
strike 18 blows from a hatchet, the blood
spurt-ing with every blow, necessarily
means that the clothing of the murderer
1111151; have been saturated with the crim-
son fluid. In fact, as Dr. Shepard put it,
the clothing of the murderer must have
looked as if he had just stepped out from
n- sluughtcr house.
“Good Son” Henry Helping W'llliam Now.
William Henry,
charged with his father’ s murder, had
only one suit of ' clothes, and he had no
money to purchase another suit.
It is admitted that on three nights he
was compelled to sleep in Prospect park
for want- of the price of a bed. The same
clothing was on his back wk on hos 51u'rcn-
derod to the police '15 when on the Satur-
day previous 110 had been driven from his
father’s house.
Not a. single. blood stain was found upon
any of his garment-s, save the shirt, which
the police have handed over to a chemist
for cxmninatlon. On the sleeve a couple
of spots that looked like blood stains were
found. There was a. scratch on his hand
which might have caused thefistains.
Walter Henry, the so called “good son,”
always dressed in a dark blue suit, and
the cloth always looked new and heat.
The police have never asked to examine
his clothing. From the first they never
had the least suspicion of him, nor have
' they now. The report that he had fled
proved untrue. While the inquest was
proceeding Walter Henry was less than 100
yards away gtwaiting the result in Lawyer
The night be—
fore Walt-er had seen Mr. Backus about
William’s case and said he would pay all
the expenses Of the defense. It was a stag-
gerer for the lawyer, who was just as
much surprised when the “good son” also
retained him to look out for his (Walter’s)
interests.
Mr. Backus, now that he is counsel for
both brothers, is not anxipus to have ei-
ther of them say much.
“One brother is under arrest,” said he,
“and the other brother, although not un-
der arrest, is suspected by the public.
Therefore we are not in a talking humor. ”
\Valter Says He Was Misquoted.
When Walter was asked if Policeman
Walsh had told a true fiery as to what he
(Walter) had said to him on entering the
old man’s house concerning William, Wal-
ter replied that he had not been correctly
quoted by the officer. He was going into
a further statement when Lawyer Backus
stopped him. Then the conversation
turned on the now famous letter. Walter
said he had road it. His' attention was
called to the last paragraph, which said
that such :1 man, meaning William, would
commit murder to satisfy his thirst for
drink. Then Walter was asked if any one
beside his father could have written in
that pm'agruph.
Before he could reply Lawyer Backus
interrupted and said that of course some
one could have written in the paragraph
referred to. He denounced the prosecu-
tion for getting William to say the letter
was in his father’s handwriting before he
had read it. As to the letter itself rarely,
if ever, has such a document been Offered
in evidence to a jury. There is a growing
suspicion that old man Henry never wrote
it at all What reason could he have, it is
argued, for writing a letter half a. column

The letter itself was written in pencil.
There was no date of any kind on it, nor
was there a signature. In fact, beyond the
statement that it was in the old man’s
handwriting, there is nothing to prove it.
William said his father wrote that let-
ter, but he is not an expert in’ handwrit-
ing. NO expert has examined it to see
Whether or not it might have been a for-
gery. It has not. been compared with other
Writings of the Old man.
Dr. Shepard, who made the autopsy,
even says that the hatchet the police de-
clare was used to kill the old miser was
not the weapon the murderer wielded. He
says:
man intelligence would have made thepo-
lice understand that had that weapon been
used 18 times on a man’s head it must
necessarily have been dripping with blood.
When they took the ax to me, I told them
to take it azvay and look for some other
Weapon; The wooden handle Of the ex had
not been made for it originally, as it did
not fill the aperture in the center of the
steel. Around the handle where it joined
the steel was a layer of dust that must
have been there for a couple of years. It
had never been cleaned apparently. Had
it been used to kill 01d Henry blood, not
dust, would be there. In my opinion the
weapon that. killed him was a. lathcr’s
knife. ”
OUR DEMAND UPON SPAIN.
No Threats Made by Uncle Sam Regard-
ing the Old llIora Claim.
WASHIYGTON, June 21. ——The ' first re-
ports as to the urgency of the demand made
by the United States on Spain for the pay-
ment of what is known as the More chum
appear to have been overstated. The at—
titude of the United States was stated
without any impression of demand or
threat, in . :communication f101n the state
departmcn" .2 to Minister Taylor sent some
weeks ago, before Senor Muirua’gu, the then
Spanish minister, had left W .-1sl1ingto'n. It
is said to have made clear that the depart-
ment’ 3 note was due to instructions from
cogrcss and that it was desirable to 11 .vc
response as would permit a commu-
033 when it rcconv cued
8110
. he note was couched in
the courteous terms usual in dealing be-
tween friendly powers, and was such as to
give full execution to the instructions of
congress and yet leave Spain to take such
action as seemed to her consistent.
So far as the action of the Spanish gov—
ernment is concerned it is not known here
what if any action has been taken by the
cortos, but it is doubted whether any—
thing has been or will be done in the brief
time before the cortes adjourns two weeks
hence. The More claim is said to be very
unpopular in Spain and the Spanish minis-
ter of foreign affairs who agreed on a. phy-
ment of it was compelled to leave the cab—
inet. The only notion ever taken by tho
cortes was in 1886, when a committee rc-
portcd that if the claim was paid the
United States should settle at the some
time several large claims which Spain
holds against the United States. The re-
port of the committee was never acted on.
It is believed that if the United States in-
sists upon the settlement of the Moro
claim Spain will urge two large claims
which have long stood in :tbcyancc. One
of those covers the damage done to Span-
ish shipping during the civil war. It is
said that the United States has reimbursed
other foreign countries, but thus far has
failed to respond to Spain. Another claim
is based on the occupancy of Florida by
General Jackson at a time when it was
Spanish territory.
