Riibiolnco win oe juuuu .
u..nt fnaiimouv elicited on tue verdict
of
UI ta
the JUrJ,M0NT 0F H.I7ABETH KK0UEK.
Elizabeth Knoncr, being duly sworn, say I
live at No. 49 avenue 15: 1 used formerly to live
with the deceased; I was with him four years,
And four days ago I left him and came to live
with Joseph time; the dectased turned me out,
and said he would live with me no longer; this
morning, at 6 o'clock, he came up here; no one
was in the ioom but mysell; the deceased came
up to me and said, "Shake hands." and I held
out my riftht hand, which he grasped, and with
the leit hand he drew a rtzor and cut me over
the left eye and buck of the head; I became so
frienlcned that I fell down, and then he hastened
away, and alter running down stairs cut his own
throat.
TESTIMONY OF FREDKKICK SMITH.
Frederick Smith beinsr sworn, says I live in
First avenue, between Fllty-lourth and Fifty
fifth streets; the deceased was my father: for
the last Ave or six years he has been living with
a woman, and was not mairled to her; the name
of this woman is Elizabeth Knouer, who is in
the habit of drinking, and has spent all the
money my father had accumulated as a farmer;
lor a living he was In the habit of peddling
vegetables and other thin its; thia woman he
lived with pot, besides, $390 from her son in
Andersonville, which she also spent; latterly
they became veiy much reduced in circum
stances, and this woman lett my father to live
with another man in the same house; this ex
cited deceased so much that I heard he cut this
woman In the lace, and after going into her
room cut his own throat, this morning, at halt
past C o'clock, alter which he was taken to the
hospital, and died in half an hour.
MEDICAL TESTIMONY.
Joseph VT. Howe, M. D., Head Surgeon of
Eellevuo Hospital, deposed that John Saiitb.
was admitted to that institution yesterday
moraine, suffering from an incised wound of
the throat; death ensued half an hour alter ad
mission, ironi excestive hemorrhage.
This closed the testimony, and the case being
submitted to the jury, they returned a verdict
el'aeuth from suicide. Deceased was sixty-five
years of age. The woman Knoner will be
around again in a lew days. tf. Y. lleraid to
day. THE LORD BOND ROBBERY.
On Million Two Hundred Thousand
Dollar Worth of Bond Hectored.
Tbe Lord bond robbery, which created so
much excitement at tbe time of its communion,
for months past has almost been forgotten by
the public; but yesterday a new phase in the
affair occurred, which will no doubt be the
caue of considerable comment in certain
circles for some time to come. It appears that
during the past year Detective Elder and Cap
tain Jourdan scoured portions of New Hamp
shire, Rhode Island, MaisncbuseUs, Pennsylva
nia, Maine, and Canada to ferret out the where
abouts of persons connected with the rob
bery, and they succeeded in their searcb.ins'B
in arresting: Charles Petteueill, Charles
Howard, John Stewart, VV. A. Babcock, aud
John Lynch, and ieciverin? $300,000 worth of
tbe bonds stolen. Last week these officers,
aecerta nine that a prominent broker tn this
country bad a large quantity of the stolen bonds
m nis possession, lortbwitb baa bim Indicted by
tbe Grand Jury. This party acd, it is sulci,
another broker who does not reside in the
United States, no doubt becoming alarmed at
the aspect aflairs were assuming, and desirous
of clearing their skirts as fui as they were able
of participation in the robbery, yesterday sent
to Mr. Lord $1,200,000 worth of the bonds
stolen irom him, the owner thereby recovering
all the money he had lost with the exception of
about $90,000 in seven-thirties and sixes of
1881. The parties concerned are said to be
"resectable," but it would be a matter of great
public interest could It be known who these par
ties are, how they came into possession of tbe
bonds, and why tbey have kept them for so long
a time from lrom their rightful owner. N. Y.

THE INDIAN TROUBLES.
Indian Demonstrations and Capture of
Cattleat Fort Dodge Pursuit of a Party
f Kiowa.-Colorado Scalp Hunters in
the Field.
Leavenworth, Kansas, June 24. A letter
lrom Fort Dodge, Kansas, on tbe SautaKe road,
says that on the 30th ulU a baud of Indian.',
numbering; 159, led by Satanta, chief of the
Klowas, who lately made a treaty with General
Hancock, dashed np within 400 yards of the
fort and captured 92 horses belonging to Com
pany B, 7th Cavalry.
Only two men were on guard, one of whom
escaped, but the other had five arrows shot into
his body. The earrison rescued him in a dying
condition. The Indians escaped with the stock.
Duriog the same nlpbt two men came into the
Fort, closely putsaed by Indians, and stated
that the Kibwas were murdering settlers aud
Pteiiiintr stuck thirty miles west. Company I,
37th Infantry, were at once put into sis-mule
watrous and sent in pursuit, but up to the 16th
. inst. nuthiog bad been heard from them.
The railroad emplojes west of Fort Harker
were attacked and driven in.
Many Mexican trains on tbe Santa Fe toad arc
In preat danger.
Tbe letter states that the border settlers are
fleeinpto tne military forts, leaving -property
behind them.
The citizens of Colorado have raised a large
fund, and oner $20 eaca tor Indian scalps. Over
200 men have taken the field in small parties to
obtain scalps.
At a reoent wedding in Detroit, the bride
groom was called on for a song. He cheerfully
promised to comply, and Baid he would give
fi frinds a new version of "Hunkadorl."
On taking the paper from his vest pocket, it
Jroved to be not a slip front a newspaper, as
io had calculated, but a greenback which he
Lad intended for the clergyman's fee. Imagine
the bridegroom's consternation at the trick he
had unwittingly played on the clergyman; and
imagine also the indignant surprise of the
latter when he found only a new version of
"Hunkadorl," when he wanted some money
for marketing next day I It is a well-known
rale of etiquette for the marriage fee to be
given and received quietly, without examina
tion. A boy, who Joined the Pha-be, a British
steam corvette, as a midHhiptnan, was seized
by his fellow-middies, lashed to a gun-earriage,
and the 'broad arrow"of the navy, with which
her Majesty's Btores are usually marked, was
indelibly tattooed on the unollending victim's
nose. The ringleader in the outrage, who
cinght to have been doubly tattooed, was only
dismissed the ship as a puni&lunent,
