The intense excitement that has pervaded the city lor the past two dajs was greatly Increased this morning by the astounding intelligence tha . the fiend who committed the bloody deed had been arrested while on his way out Market street, near Twenty-third. lie waa brought lin. mediately to the Central Station, where immense crowds gathered to discuss the particulars, and, if possible, to catch a glitupse of the criminal. A large torce of the police were immediately put on duty, and no one was permitted to enter the room except the officers and the representa tives of the press. Chief Franklin proceeded to make a searching inquiry into the recent where shouts of the accused, first making the state ment that he hud the legal right to decline answeriug any questions that might be asked bim. The neighborhood of Fifth and Cbesnut was crowded with excited persons gathered together in knots, each one stating his theory in con nection with the matter. Members of the Re serve Corps of Police were in attendance to stop any Indications of popular indignation. At one time the iage of the crowd was at fever beat, and if they could have got possession of the wretch the probabilities are that an execution would have been extemporized; but better coun sels prevailed, and all seemed satisfied that the legal course was the best .'. . The horrible particulars of the glgantio crime are so fresh in the minds of all newspaper read ers, that it is not to be wondered at that the feelings of the crowd were inflamed, ' and we regard it as highly creditable to oar citizens that no outbreak occurred. It is proper to say that the detectives of Philadelphia have been Inces sant in their efforts to lerret out the particulars of the crime. Members of the force have gone in every direction, and the officers of other cities bave been lotlfled of all Important facts. The fact that several days elapsed between the commission of the act and its discovery led many to Jbelieye . that the culprit would have time to escape from the country, or at least to elude the vigilance of the. police; but it would seem that the proverbial Infatuation of great felons attached to this case. . c Tha examination before Chief Frrnklin, this Kiornlng, at the private room at Central Sta tion, dlaclOMd. tie llllirig iftctr.-TU &tm. of the criminal is Anthony Gaunter; born In Germany, and is about years old. He was arrested last evening, at 8 P. M., by di cers Thomas Weldon, James Dorsey, and James Atkinson, at Twenty-third and Market. On Bcelng him Officer Dorsey ran to front of him, and suddenly remarked, "You aro Gcr. man," which he denied, stating that he was a Frenchman. He was then taken to the Station House and locked up. Mrs. Oo'itin, the inoiber of Mrs. Keating, was sent tor, and upon her arrival immediately identified tue prisotiT. , Since yestorOtiy we have obtained the follow ing additional particulars of the terrible tra gedy : Yesterday Mr. Dolan, mother of Elizabeth, one of the victims, caiue to the city, and from her much Information of an interesting charac ter was obtained. In regard to the roUslng German, sue says that he was first employed by Mr. Deering last tall, and that his sulleouc and unsocial disposition made him generally disliked. The repuenanee of Mrs. Deering to him whs so great that she prevailed upon her husband to discharge him. He only retimed a lew week ago, and stated to Mr. Deering that he had been to Germany, and that he bad re turned to th's country in consequence of not being able to get. employment. As he was out of money, he olfered to work for his board if he were taken in. Ho was engaged at ton dollars a month, which sum he van to receive until times were better. She savs that her daughter had a black leather travelling biu with her, which contained some dresses and other clothing; also, several toys, which she had par chased tor the childrin. The bntr and contents, except the toys, are missing. They were found in the cradle. Mrs. Dolan also Bays that her daughter had two or three finger ring3, and a hundred and twenty dollars two fifty-dollar b.lls and a twenty-dollar bill. The rlugs and money were carried oil'. She has aWo received information that her daughter did not accom pany Mr. Detrine to the house on Saturday that he mixsed her in the city, and that sue went to the farm alone, probably reaching it a short time belore he did. The name of the German hns not been ascer tained to a certainty. Some said that they always heard him ciilled Antony. A receipt was found among the papers of Mr. Dewing bearing his supposed name. It reads ai tot lows: Philadelphia, 11th March, 18tiC Received of C Deering one week's wages in full up to this date. Timothy Alhon. It is unite evident that this receipt was never written by a German. As to the present where about of tl is man we are unable to conjecture. As lnr as is known he was not seen about the place larer than Friday. We have ascertained other facts as to the whereabouts of Mr. Deeriag on Saturday morning, the day he was last seen. Detective Trvou visited the Wharton market, on Moya mensing avenue, yesterday, to find out the person.from whom Mr. Deering purchased his meat. Th is was soon ascertained to be a Mrs. Greenwill, who, upon being questioned, stated that Mi. Deering came to her stall on Saturday morning, and bought six pound of beef at fifteen cents per pound; that while she was attendiug to him, he pulled out a splendid gold watch and chain; after looking at it, he said it was ubout 9 o'clock, and he had to stop at Mr. Mitchell's, and then be at the steamboat landing by eleven to meet his cousin who was coming down from Burlington. SJhe did not see him afterwards. This lady seemed quite cert-tin about his having a gold watch and chain with him. These articles were not found upon his body nor in the house. Mr. Mitchell corroborates the evidence is to Mr. Deering having stopped at his house on Saturday morn ing. No one has yet been found who saw him after he lelt Mr. Mitchell. In regard to the muddy shoes found in rhe house, they belonged to Mr. Deering instead of the German, as was at first supposed. Several persons to whom they were shown, ut once said they were "Chrlssy's clogs." THE BODIES OP THE VICTIMS. After the examination of the bodies, thev were removed to Mr. Gartlaud's place, on Barker street, above Sixteenth, who has been selected as the undertaker by the relatives of tne de ceased. The body of tne boy, Cornelim, was also removed to the same place. We did not learn what arrangements had been made in reference to the funeral. - FIItH AT THE CKDERTAKER'h. About 8 o'clock last evening a gas-meter ex ploded on the first floor of the building in which the bodies bad been placed. The cotlins con taining their remains were upon the second floor. Fortunately the fire was discovered, and extinguished before it rained any neadvay. Had no person been about at the time the build ing would have been destroyed, and the bodies have shared the same fate. A CV BRENT STORY. WTe learned yesterday that a man appeared on Passyunk road, near the County Prison, on Sun day morning, and desired to be directed to tne Reading Railroad depot. He was a foreigner, and could scarcely speak English. Since the de velopments of the massacre, those ot whom be inquired recollect to have seen Btains on his clothing, which they now believe was blood. THE FUNERAL NOTICE. DEEBIKG. On the 7th Instant, CHRISTOPHER DKKRINU, seed 88 years; a so, his lie, JUUA LKEitlNU, aged 46 years; their ion, JOHN PEKft Itili, aged 8 years; their sun, TUOM A3 1IS.R1Nit, aged 6 years; their daughter, ANNA DKEKIXU, aged 4 yearx; their daughter, E4IL.Y DEERING, aged 2 years; his niece, ELIZABETH DOLAN, aired 25 years; and CORNELIU CAKEY , aged 17 years. Their relatives and friends are respectfully Invited to attend their funeral, from the office ot Simon Uartland, No. 85 8. Thirteenth street, on Saturday afternoon, at 1 o'oiock, without further notice. In terment at St. Mary's Cemetery No person wili be admitted to view the bodies without the consent of the larnily. 1 After the identification by Mrs. Dolan he ac knowledged to the officer that he had killed the boy. He was then placed in a carriage, and, in charge of Chief Ruggles and Officer Patton, was driven to the station at Filth and Chesnut streets. At the examination this morning he stated that he had killed the boy at 12 o'clock on Sat urday, by chopping bim with a new axe, while thev were on the way to the haystack. He states that he staid at Front and Brown streets on Wednesday night, and at Front and Moore streets on Sunday night, at a lager beer saloon. On Friday Deering, the murdered man, paid Antoine $8 as wages. He then came to the city and bought two shirts, and sold them yesterday to a wan at a lager beer saloon kept by Mr. Myer, at Front and Callowhlll streets, who drank two glas-es ot beer with him. Antoine intenaed to stay in West Philadelphia until thu morning about 8 o'clock, where be had a preconcerted engagement to meet a friend. The thumb of the right hand Is entirely wanting, and has appa rently been cut off lor some time, at it is en tirely healed. Antoine is apparently about twenty-three years of age, about five feet lour or five inches in height; wears a dingy white hat, approaching the buff; and is dressed In a new suit of clothes. He ts of florid complexion; has light moustache, and fair hair. His nose is straight from the forehead to near the lips, when it turns us abruptly, having the appesranee of being broken at some time. The general effect of bis counts nance is against Mm. He claims to be a mem ber of the 6th Pennsylvania Cavalry, and was honorably discharged. During the examination he was calm and self-possessed, answering the questions of the officers promptly. After the examination he was removed to a cell, when a private Jakntew was bad with him bj Coroner Taylor and other officials, the purport of which wus not made puMio. An artist was despatched from the oflice of TnE Evening Telegraph this inornlng to secure a faithful representation of the culprit, which we give above. PORTRAIT OF ANTOINE GANTHER, One of tli Murdcreira ut' tbe Deerlas; Family. lrwm from Hft, and Eoravrd F.rprestltj for The Evening Telegraph. The Examination Before the Mayor. About a quarter to 11 o'clock this morning the Chief of Police, accompanied by one or two officers, proceeded to the cell of the murderer, Just after he had been privately engaged with the Coroner, and requested him to accompany him. Ganther rose from the bench, and with an officer on each side of bim, and closely fol. lowe.d by the Chief of Police, he was escorted through the cellar of the station up a back, pair of stairs, and from thence up Into the Mayor's oflice. A number of representatives of the press, members of Councils, and other privi leged characters followed closely on the heels of Ganther, and piessed around him, anxious to pet a glance at hte personal appearance, which has been fully described in another part of this narrative. Entering the large room which ad)oins the Mayor's private office, the figure of the mur derer broke on the view of the surprised Police Lieutenants, who were all seated around waiting to make a return of their morning reports to the Chief ot Police. At once each Lieutenant rose to his feet, and in a few seconds the pri soner was surrounded by a cordon of police ofilcisls. The prisoner was the subject of some comments at the hands of a number ot the Po lice Lieutenants. They (;azed earnestly at him, and Ganther glanced furtively at the flashing eyes which were riveted upon him. After standing a few minutes until an officer went into the Mayor's private office to pave the way for a prlvaU inter view, Ganther was marched across the room and though the door leading into the Mayor's piivate office. The Mayor and the prisoner had a private lnferview for a few moments, when the reporter of The Telegraph, and a very few other indivi duals, were permitted to enter. Our reporter on entering found the prisoner seated on a chair at a large square table, and at the other side of the table sat his Honor, Mayor McMichael the Mayor and prisoner sitting ets-a-eis. The Chief of Police, Mayor's clerk, the President of Common Council, a few members of Councils, two or three prominent city officials, and the reporter for The Telegraph stood around the table in qniet groups, bending their ears to catch every word that was said. The prisoner was perfectly cool and collected, and during the lengthy cross-examination he went through, at the hands of the Mayor, ex hibited the greatest self-possession. He answered every question in the most unreserved manner, and stated at one time that he had nothing whatever to conceal. At one time, when the Mayor put a question to him regarding his family, the prisoner became melancholy, and slightly agitated, nts lace colored, and his eyes were moistened with tears, but they quickly passed away, and he resumed his manner of stolid indifference. It was the subject of general notice that during the rigid examination at the hands of the Mayor, the prisoner did not contradict himself in a single instance. He spoke broken English with tolerable distinctness, but occasionally when in doubt as to the meaning of a question put by the Mayor, the servic.-s of Mr. George Mock, the Mayor's private Messenger, was brought into requisition, who acted as inter, prefer. ! The manner of the prisoner would indicate that he waa stricken with remorse; for when questioned as to whether he did not fear being arrested while loitering about the city, he said: "ne did not care, as he knew it would bo all right when he was caught." ; The Major's system of questioning the prl. soner was admirable, and eminently calculated to draw forth correct answers. He called the prisoner by his Christian name, "Antoine," and put leading questions in a kind and quiet man ner. j How the Harder was Committed. i The private examination before che Mayor elicited the fact that the murder was committed id the following manner: On Friday last, Ganthcr'i accomplice in the terrible tragedy came over to Mr. Deerlng's, and proposed to Ganther that they should murder the family and rob the house. Ganther consented to the plan proposed by his accomplice, and it was arranged that Ganther should murder the boy, while the other man despatched the rest of Mr. Deerlng's family. 1 About 10 o'clock on Saturday morning, the accomplice persuaded Mrs. Deering to come to the barn, a short distance from the house, and getting her there, struck her in the head with an axe, and then cat her throat with the edge of that instrument, He then pitched her body Into the corn crib adjoining the barn, and then proceeding to the' house, took the children one by one to the barn, when their heads were knocked in with the butt end of the sxe and their throats cut As fast as one was dealt with in this manner its body was thrown into the corn-crib, and the process continued nntil the whole family were disposed of. While the accomplice was thus engaged, Ganther proceeded to murder the boy Cornelius. He overtook him at the haystack, and struck him on the back of fhs head with an axe. after which he cut his throat, and th'-u hid the bony under the hay. The fiendish plot bciog accomplished, the two murdereTs proceeded to the house and lay in wait for Mr. Deering and Mrs. Elizabeth Dolan. They arrived home about 12 o'clock, and as soon as Mr. Deering had deposited his carriage in the wagon-house, the accomplice (accord lug to Ganthcr's statement) attacked jthcm both, knocking them in the head and cutting their throats. After which, the bodies were carried to tho barn and placed where they were discovered. The precious-palr then proceeded to the bouse, and after collecting together all the valuables ihey could gather, deliberately sat down and eat their dinner, when they left and came to the city. The verbatim report of the Mayoi's Interview with the prisoner, given below, furnishes the reader witu a lull account of after proceedings on the part ot the murderers.
