Detective Gordon, on Saturday, that he had
killed his mother on the 20th of November, at

his miad seemed to be wandering, but he was
searched and locked up at the Central Station,
and a telegraph despatch sent to Canandaletm

a cell, the prisoner exhibited a razor, which had
escaped the notice of the turnker, and threat
ened to cut his throat with it. The razor was
taken from him without dilllculty. Yectcrday a

story was declared to be a fabrication. Flu

said it was owing; to his having swallowed an
opium pill.

SCH0EPTE.
He Denies Die Poison Mtory nnd Again Pro
claims Mis Innocence.
The Press of Saturday published the follow
ing letter from Dr. Schoeppc:
Carlisle Prison, Dec. 34, 1800. To the
Editor of the J'ress Dear Sir: The Evening,
Telegraph of tho 2'M inst. printed a despatch
from Carlisle, containing the following words in
regard to me:
"It is but just to state that tho Common
wealth's officers say that, in the event of a new
trial being granted, they will produce some
additional testimony which will place, his (my)
guilt beyond doubt. It is rumored that a witness
will be put on tho stand who will testify
that Schoeppc himself admitted having ad
ministered four doses of prussic acid to Miss
Stennecke."
I hereby declare that I never said such a thing
to any person. If any person pretends to have
heard that I said so, I declare him to be a shame
less liar.
And secondly, I hereby declare that Miss
Stennecke never got one drop of prussic acid
from me.
You would oblige mo very much if you would
be kind enotich. for the Sake of riaht and iuxticn.
to publish this short reply in your distinguished
paper.
I have no other weapons to fight against such
baneful insinuations and lies ot my pcrsecntors
than my word.
aiobi respecttuiiy your obedient servant,
P. Scuoeite, M. D.
Our Sidewalks.
Philadelphia has eyer had an nncnviable
notoriety for the surface drainage that floods
its pavements and gutters, to the intense an
noyance of foot-paHsengers, and in winter
makes amiable pools for Jack Frost to practise
his art upon. Our best streets are beset by
the mud and water or the ice and slash that
result from this system, until, from the im
possibility of keeping dry in mild weather
and erect during a "cold snap," our citizens
rightly pronounce the winter season to be a
prolonged bore. Though of late something
has been done towards remedying these evil i
handsome buildings, almost without excep
tion, being connected with the sewers ye
there still remains enough of the old system
to induce the Grand Jury to "call attention
to the bad condition of our streets, both as to
cleanliness and paving." The case require i
municipal action, and our City Fathers may
assure themselves that any cure they may
devise will be gratefully received by pedes
trians. But our property owners (many of them.
at least) are not contented with deluging the
feet of their fellow-citizens at a season when
out-of-door foot-baths are especially disagree
able; they will extend the bath indefinitely in
a vertical direction, the distance at
tained being directly proportional to the
weicht of the passer-by and the peculiarly
convenient positions of the bricks composing
the pavements. Hence they never have their
sidewalks relaid, or even filled in, when they
have sunk down or been washed out, and the
result is "loose bricks." What stranger ever
viBited Philadelphia and did not notice this
peculiar institution
To one phase of this neglect of sidewalks
we would call the especial attention of Coun
cils. Persons having ocoasion to walk
through certain parts of West Philadelphia
have been, and are, greatly annoyed by the
failure of parties owning improved property
either to lay durable pavements or to keep
them in order when laid. If the late action
of Councils in valuing the Almshouse pro
perty at fl.5,000 an acre be not mere hypo
crisy, in order to avoid the sale to the Uni
versity, consistency will require that the ap
proaches to that property shall be such that
possible purchasers may be able to get at it
As the streets are now, a by no means incon
siderable quantity of dirt, mud, poor side
walks, none at all, surface drainage, and loose
boards must be endured before reaching
thirty -feurth and Yalnut streets, and from
there wading, swimming, or skating is neces
sary, according to the season. Even Chesnut
street, east of Thirty-fourth, is in wrotched
condition. The crossing at Thirtieth street
is sinking ad inferos, that of the
West Chester Railroad is paved only
with cobble-stones, the north crossing from
the bridge to tne west side ot Thirtieth has
never been opened, and in bad weather con
tests of a mud-puddle, and a long stretch of
the pavement on the north side of Chesnut
street is a worn-out plankway, under which
collects in mild weather just enough water to
be constantly oozing through the cracks (and
thus making mud or ice), or to be thrown
violently over the boots or dress of the un
lucky one who steps on a loose board. There
surely is good food for thought for that Coun
cilman who thinks the Almshouse estate
worth $30,000 an acre. We do not allude
now to pavements in front of newly-erected
JiVltfep. guilders everywhere ia West Phila
delphia evince a desire to avoid giving un
necessary inconvenience to pedestrians, nnd
did persons owning houses already oecupied
seem as anxious to make needed repairs, no
trouble would be found.
