';' .8 LANCASTER DAILY INTELUGENeteB, WMfiNESBAt AUGUST & 1881. Tr .--' dlAS. LAVEKTY'S WATCH. Hew It Is Tracing the Valley Ferge Murderer. Before Justice Corseu at Norristown yesterday the first important hearing was had in the new celebrated Clugsten mur der case. Jehn Spielraann, arrested iu the city last Timrsday as an accessory te the crime at Valley Ferge, has been re committed te prison as an accomplice, if net the principal, in the murder. Isorris Iserris Isorris tewn has for mouths been placarded with offers of 41,000 reward for the apprehen sion of the murderer, but the only clue offered te work upon was the pictures of a common Jlelteu cloth overcoat with a plaid lining, a Red Jacket revolver with which the murder was done, and a pawn ticket bearing the name of E. Abbett for a watch stolen from Chas. Laverty, then a ticket agent at Lcaman place, Lancaster county, all of which articles were left by the midnight assassin in his flight from the Clugsten residence after the crime was committed. Ed waul Johusen was arrest ed as the neaiest friend of Abbett, but evidence was wanting te show that he was anything mere than what he claimed te be, merely an acquaintance of the man whom the pawn ticket implicated in the murder. But Jehnsen and the bar keeper, Nicholas Davidseu, spoke of an other friend of Abbett's, and last Thurs day Spielmanu was arrested. He is an insignificant looking mat:, with thin sandy hair, a low forehead, receding chin, and very large, colorless eyes, which aie rest less and wild looking, as Guiteau's arc. He is small in stature, proportionately slight, and possesses a self-assertive egot ism which showed itself iu many small tricks te catch the attention of the specta tors. His large eyes fairly snapped with merriment while his associate told of their debauch iu Philadelphia en the 27th of February, when, according te Spiel mauu's story, he first met Abbett and Jehnsen. During the forenoon Geerge Salabes, one of the managers of the Consolidated lean company of Baltimore, wheic the pawn ticket bearing Abbett's name was issued, arrived at Norristown and was taken te jail. He partly identified the prisoner as the smaller of the two men who came te him early iu March te pawn a sil ver watch which was subsequently found te have been stolen at Lcaman Place. When shown the coat left by the murderer of Mr. Clugsten, Salades identified it pos ilively as the coat, worn by the man who pawned the watch. This raised Detective Miller's glee te the point of snapping his fingers in excitement and exclaiming : "Gentlemen, we have the Clugsten mur derer. "Hew about Abbett '.'"' asked the Press reporter. "He was merely a party te the burg lary. I de net think it probable that he was in the house when the ether burglar, attacked by Mr. Clugsten, shot his assail ant dead." "And you think, tee, that the old con vict, Forrester, had nethuig te de with the murder .'" " Liens never associate with iambs," saiil the detective, tersely, "and Spielmanu is a mere boy whom Feri ester would never speak te, much less admit him into his confidence." Spiclmann walked from thcjaillethe magistrate's ellice arm in arm with Mr. Miller. During the examination, if he wanted anything he asked the detective for it, and the latter always geed naturcdly complied. Spielmanu was smoking com placently, and as he dropped into a chair behind the magistrate he asked for a light. The room was crowded and stifling. Justice Corsen, sitting in his shirt sleeves, grecteil the prisoner very cordially and turned from the magisterial desk te grasp the hand of the accused. District Attorney Wangcr called for Cornelius W. Best, who was duly sworn. He was a plumber by trade, living at Ne. 821 Fitzwater street, Philadelphia, and had known 11m pris oner about a year age, when Spielmanu was employed at Hall's oyster saloon, Ne. 1150 Seuth Eleventh street. He stayed only a week or two, and witness never knew him te have any ether regular em ployment. On March :$, the day before the inauguration of President Garfield, llcst met Spielmanu iu a cigar store at Eleventh and Ellswerth streets, anil the latter said that he was going te Washing ton te see the inauguration. Witness was shown the grey coat left, by the Val ley Ferge murderer en March IS, and he was quite certain that it was the same one that Spielmanu had worn en the night of the :5d, when he was talking te him. Witness said he could tell the coat better if Spielmanu put it en; he lcmcmbcrcd a particular way that the coat hung ever the chest. The district attorney asked the prisoner if he would object te putting en the coat that was taken from the Clug Clug seon murderer. "Ne," said the prisoner, throwing his cigar away; "1 don't object. 1 will put en any number of coats belonging te ether men if you want me te." The district attorney said he would be much obliged and the prisoner was helped off with the nigged coat worn by him at the time of the arrest and put en the gray one that the murdcicr had worn. Best looked at the prisoner a moment and s.iid emphatically that it wasSpielmann's eeat. He had never seen another like it. The garment stuck out iu fieut of the chest noticeably, but in ether respects exactly fitted Spiclinanu's slender figure. Spiel maun next put en a slouchy black hat whieh was found with the coat. Witness could net, however, identify it as (he one he had scen'in Philadelphia. Jehn Hewell, a hairdresser at Ne. 1150 Seuth Eleventh Street, had known Spiel manu two years, but had net sccii him since the Saturday proceeding the inaugu ration. He were at that time a gray mixed coat, which was slightly ripped under the right arm. The district attor ney hastily picked up the new famous gray coat, and the rip was found as de sciibcd. "I had net noticed it before," said he. "The coat, added the witness, "always had the appearance en Spielman of having been bought iu a hurry." The identification of the coat was net mero important than Goe. Salabcs'ssteiy of Spichnaun's visit te the Baltimore pawn shop. " I have seen the prisoner before" said Salabcs, a small, middle aged .Hebrew, with bright, twiuklirg eyes and a nervous way of speaking. " lie came te my shop at Ne. 53 West Baltimore street, en March 9. He was accompanied by a taller man, who had little te say. He wanted at first te redeem some jewelry that he had left there, but said that the ticket was uufertunately at his lodgings. As they were about te leave the shop Spicl mann te the best of witness' knowledge it was he turned back and efFercd a silver watch te pawn. He received $5 en it, aud a ticket was issued. Ne. 23,826. As it was being written the tall n.au said : ' Make the ticket out in my name. E. Abbett,' and as no objection was made by t'ic ether man," concluded the witness, " we did se. The watch in question was stolen from a railroad agent at Leamau Place station about one week before." A Nice Trip. Mr. J. N. McCullough, of Pert Deposit, has chartered the steamer Chester in behalf of the Laucastcr, Chester, Cecil and Har ford county medical societies, who with their families will make au excursion down the bay ou August 25th.

The Citizens' band, of Columbia, go te Marietta this evening te serenade several of that borough's citizens. The citizens en Frent street were wrong in their surmises that there was a fire iu Wrightsville last evening. It was only a flame coming out of the stack at the Wrightsville hardward works. This morning as Geerge Zerger, day caller of the P. R. R. at Columbia, was getting into his buggy, his feet slipped, throwing him violently against the sharp edge of the seat inflicting a severe bruise en his left side. A large number of Columbians left this morning te spend the remainder of the Landisville campmeeting, which closes en Thursday. Abeus C:30 this morning, a little girl, living ou Seuth Fourth street, was run ever by a buscy, the wheels passing ever both legs. Ne bones were broken, but her legs were much bruised and swollen.

Bennett's store en Seventh street. The Columbia steamer is expected te be finished by next Monday, and will be sent home immediately. The members of the company have net determined whether te give :i parade or held a reception upon its return. But one or the ether will be cer tainly done. Horseback parties seem te be " all the go" here uew, aud if it were net for the scarcity of riding horses, this pleasant pastime would be indulged iu mere freely. Mr. llcdsecker, who only has a few geed riding horses, should leek the matter up, and as he tries te please everybody, we de net doubt that if requested properly, he would purchase a few mere. The P. & It. R. It- and the Susquehanna canal company's dredging machines ar rived at the coal shutcs ou Monday after noon and began dredging yesterday morn ing. It is expected they will finish their work here this afternoon. A number of years age Mr. William Kcefer, of Mountville, (who has just ar rived in Germany) in company with Charles Shillen, left the German army before Iiis time was up, and upon his arrival iu that country he was arrested, and it is said will have te serve the three years which he had te serve before he deserted.

All expicss themselves as having had a pleas ant lime. The law, prohibiting bathing while the sun is out, has at. last had some effect. Yesterday afternoon Special Policeman Dyssinger saw a number of youngsters in swimming, and attempted te capture them, but they were a little tee quick for him. Seizing their clothes they ran down the railroad in a nude condition, Mike follow ing them and succeeding in catching one, who was taken bcfeie Chief Burgess Sneath, and after premising net te again break the law, the young boy was allowed te e free.

This week, as for the past few weeks, the appearance of the Columbia Herald is greatly improved. Its local department contains all matters of intcicst in and around Columbia, given iu a style, that it is a pleasure for everyone te read. Squire Crier gives it mere attention new than formerly and its editor should feel proud of its newsy columns. The Herald is one of the eldest and best established weeklies te be found in the state. We hope the jelly "Squhe will continue teiun his paper in the future as he is doing at present, and if he docs se we can sec no reason why it should net be one of the leadiug weeklies in this state.

Brown were present. The number of nuisances complained of during the past two weeks was five, and in every case the usual notice requiring their removal was sent immediately upon their complaint being made. Dr. Herr stated that complaint had been made te him of the condition of the alley southwest of St. Jeseph's cemetery and running between St. Jeseph and Poplar streets. There is no gutter nor ether means of draiuage, and the waste water and offal collects and forms an intolerable nuisance. The secretary was instructed te ' call the matter te the attention of the chairman of the street committee, with the view of having a gutter made. The secretary stated that out of the forty-five physicians in the city, there were nine who bad net yet complied with the act of assembly requiring them te register their name and place of residence and make a quarterly report of births te the secretary of the beard of health. It was thought best te give these gentleman a little mere time, and it was agreed that the secretary should call their attention te their failure te perferin their duty in this regard, and should say if such report was net made before the next meeting they would render themselves liable te the pen alty inflicted for the non-perfermanco of their duties. Mr. Marshall reported many of the sewers about town te be in a foul condi tion complaint having been made by many citizens.

An immense crowd assembled outside of the palace te-day and cheered Bradlaugh when he entered the yard en his way te Westminster Hall, sometime befere the assembling of the Heuse of Commens. On attempting te enter the Heuse he was quietly removed by the pelice. Inside the Heuso a debate arose concerning the case, during which Gladstone and ether Liberals argued that Bradlaugh bail no mere right thcre than a stranger. Meanwhile Mr. Brad laugh remained standing in the palace yard, with his arms folded, aud three policemen in front of him, barring his way te the Heuse, while these inside of the Heuse could plainly hear the cheering of the crowd. Aftar some time Bradlaugh evaded the police guard and endeavored te ferce an entrance. He was then seized by messengers and dragged from the deer, his coat being tern in the struggle He was linally taken iu charge by six policemen still resisting stienueusly. After Mr. Broadhurst. (Advanced Lit eral) aud Mr. Cowen (Radical Reformer) had spekeu in favor of Mr. Bradlaugh, Right Hen. Jehn Bright described hew Mr. Bradlaugh was brought down te the palace yard in a fainting condition. He thought such a scene was unprecedented. He appealed te the oppo sition te reconsider their former decision se as te extricate themselves from the present difficulties. He was called te order for irrelevancy. Lord Jehn Manners Conservative, said that Mr. Bright's atti tude was calculated te encourage Mr. Bradlaugh who had necessitated his forci ble removal by attempting a forcible entry. An amendment te Mr.Labeuchere's motion declaring that the Heuse approve the con duct of the speaker and of the officials under his orders was accepted by Mr. Gladstone and Sir Stafferd Northccte and was passed. A number of Liberal mem bers quit the Heuse befere the vote was taken amidst ironical cheers. Mr. Brad laugh after bis expulsion went te Bew street for a summons against the police.
