Child.
The butchery f the Utile girl Mohrmau
In PliilndelpM.i eighteen months ago has
been fastened upon Juhn liaiiion, a barber
now in PliiUdelpiilit county Jail, under
sentence of live years' imprisonment for a
shocking assault upon a child. The details
of the atrocious murder of the beautiful
little girl Mobrmjn are slill fresh in the
memory of the people of Philadelphia. Up
on tba discovery or lis commission the pro-
loiiudvst sensation was created in every
circle, and (or months afterward the entire
police lorco of the diU'ic(, with ail the
detective department, went to work with
an earnestness never before known, to ferret
out tho criminal.
The child was kidnapped liom its borne
one Sunday morainj while its mother was
attending church, and on tho following
Tuesday its bi.dy was found lying in a
vacant lot near its borne. When taken t0
the police station stalwart men stool aghust
when the Corner's physician took the body
and showed the manner, i:i which the hor
r.blo net had been committed. A large
number of persons, among whom were
vagrants known to loiter and sluep nbi.ut
barns in tho neighborhood, were arretted
on suspicion. But as an examination of
the locality left it sell-evident that a house
hold had perpetrated the crime, the va
grants were discharged, and the barber
liar. Ion, living a few doors liom .Mis. Muhr.
mac's bouse, was taken into custody.
A little girl, who is said tn have witnessed
the carrying off of little llury, could not
identify him us the man, and he was di
cbargeii also. The detectives bureau tins
urver lost sight oTlbis man since, and a
rigid surveillance was Instituted over bim
so strong were tbe Indications that he alone
committed tbe foul crime.
On Wednesday last be was missing from
bis house, and upon Inquiries being estab
lished it was ascertained that under tbe as
sumed name af Charles Harris he bad been
tried and convicted of an attack upon an
other child.
While those who have carefully watched
this case aro morally certain that Hanlon is
the murderer of Mary Mohrman, there is
lack of legal evidence to place bim 011 trial.
