Watt;" I knew Miss Lippincott; recollect
her being at Berger's about New Year's;
didn't hear any talk about Miss Watt's
house; remember her being there Thursday

when Miss Watts got money she always put
it in bank; that was all I„ever heard said
about money.
Cross-examined—l had not asked him to

had always beerf; I was the person who told
him that the officers were there; they went
to the shed and had their conversation, which
I did not hear; he then came for his hat, and
said he was going to the store, and told me
to say so to his wife, and would be back
noon.
Sergeant Dickenson (of Police).—l made
search for the perpetrator of this crime ;
went after Christian Berger; I had ex
amined the footprints; I found Berger at his
house. '
I called him to the back door and
stated that I wished to examine him in re
gard to the murder; I asked him if he had
not been in that neighborhord that morn
ing; he said he had been at Queen and
Main streets; I asked him if he had not
passed round Queen street in the direction
of the house where the murder was com
mitted, and he said he had not; I asked
Min which way he - went after leaving the
corner, he said he went down Main street on
his way to the city; I asked him if he went
down in the cars; he said no, as he had no
money he walked down; I afterwards ex
amined his pockets, and found $l7 19, one
dollar of which was in silver; I asked him
if he had paid any bills during the day, he
said he had; I asked him how many; he
told me he had paid one bill of over $23,
and one of $9, and another of $2, and
another of $1 30; • I asked him
if he had spent any money, and he said
about a dollar; I asked him how he ac
counted for having this money, as he had
just told me that he had nothing in the
morning; I made the amount over $53; he
said while he was in the city he met a man
he had loaned $5O to about a year ago; I
asked him where the man resided, and he
said he didn't know; I asked him if he had
received any other money, during the day,
and he said he had not; I told him that the
amount of the bills, together with what I
foundin his possession, amounted to over
.$5O; he did not account for the difference
between the two; I then asked to see his
boot; Mr.Hughes,whei measured the tracks,
was present, and I asked him to measure
the boot. [The resut of the measurement
was not allowed to be given in evidence at
this time.] I closed the examination then;
it was at the Station House that the exami
nation was made; when I took him from the
house I took him to the Station.
At half-past one o'clock the Court took a
recess for an hour, at the close of which
Sergeant Dickenson was recalled •and cross
examined;l went to Berges house between
9 and 10 o'clock on the night of the murder;
the first thing I said to him was that I
wanted to examine him in regard to the
murder, as I understooVhat he was in the
neighborhood, and I wanted to see what he
• knew about it; did not tell him he, was sus
pected of murder; I told him . I wanted to
see if I could get any information from him.
Chief Franklin, recalled.—l went to Ger
mantown first on Saturday afternoon; did
not seethe prisoner until Sunday morning;
saw, him in the Station-house, Germantown;
first went to the cell where he was locked
np; Taggart, Sergeant Dickerson, Alderman
Thomas were with me; I don't think I
spoke to Berger in the cell; can't say who
spoke to him there; there were some re
marks about the cold weather and the in
terview ended; next he was brought up
stairs to the telegraph room; within 15 or
.20minutes, I think, I commenced the con
versation; Mr. Tryon land Mr. Levy were
. there in addition to those down stairs; I
told him he had been arrested upon a very
serious charge; that we were there for the
purpose of inquiring info all the facts in
relation to the murder of Miss Watt; that
in the questions which we intended to ask
him he was not bound to criminate himself,
and he - `had ,"a_ right to decline answering
any. He spoke up at once and said he had
done nothing wrong, and desired full in
vestigation; I' then asked him what his
name was, Where he lived, his age, his oe.
Cupation; he answered, Christian Berger,
24 years of age, lived in School lane, and
%was a wool sorter; asked him where he
worked. last, and he said Needles' Mill,
Crease street, above Girard. avenue; askeci
-him what time he ieft home on that Satur

met a man named John Stall, who owed
him fifty dollars, that he asked• him for,it,
and Stall replied, be had it,, and might' as
well pay hint then, and he paid hiin, and he
described the money he got; he said there
were three( ;slos, one $5, four s2s and seven
$1 bills; h said he paid' hint on the street:
asked him if be had given Stall a receipt for
therrioney,l and • he said no; asked him if
Stall had given' him a due-bill when he

got :out of the car at School Lane, and
paid a bill at Vanderslice's store; that
he bought some groceries there and
went home, he said he paid the nurse $9,
and subsequently? paid , $2 at the
drug store, and $1 30 at the grocery, where
he took twb half dollars; I asked him what
he said to his wife in reference to the money
when be came home; he said he told her' he
got it from Mr. Needles, being money ue
him there; asked him how long he had b n
acquainted with Stall; he replied, about One
year, but he had never seen him but three
times; asked him why he didn't tell his wife
he got the money from Stall; said he din't
d t.
want her i.o know that he had loaned he
Money; I asked him who be saw that mo n
ing at Queen and Main streets; he said he
saw Wm. Yaks going down the cellar, and
that they poke to each other; asked him if
he saw Bessie Lippincott; said yes, he saw
her coming. down Queen street; asked him
if he spoke to her; he said no; the next
thing thabattracted the attention of the Offi
cers was the boot; it was taken off his foot;
there looked like a discoloration on the inside
of the sole that looked like blood,and was so
stated to the prisoner; he said that might be,
as be had stepped on a piece of meat in Van
derslice's store the night before; that he had
given it a kick to get it out of the way, then
said it might have been a piece of liver; I
think that was all that was said to him at
that time. The prisoner was taken out to
another room, and Mr. Taggart went with
him; subsequently, on the same day, he
stated to the that he recollected that he had
been to Frankford a few days before, and ,
some where near the Reading railroad he
passed bra dead horse or mule that had
been run over and cut up and he kicked a
piece of the meat with his boot, and that he
picked up, the tail and threw it away; the
conversation was then continued about
where he had been in the afternoon; he said
he went into town again; rode in a passen.
ger car to a skating pond, and be went from
there to neighborhood of Eighth and But
tonwood streets; that he went there for
the purpose of finding a fortune teller;
asked him what inquiries he desired to
make; said he wanted to find out about. an
aunt of his wife's, who was in Canada,
whether she was coming back soon; that he
forgot the name and did not go, but went
back to Germantown; subsequently he made
a further statement in regard to the money;
he said the money was the proceedings of a
larceny committed in Richmond, about a
year previous; that he hid the money at the
time under a bridge,at the corner Allegheny
avenue and Trenton railroad; that he went
over that Morning for the purpose of getting
it; next lie made another statement that he
secreted Lie money in a small pocket that
he had in his coat, still alleging that it was
the proceeds of the robbery; said he had
carried it there ever since the robbery.
Joshua Taggart, sworn.—l am a detective
police offtcer; first saw the prisoner at the
Germantown Station House; I was at the
interview; as described by Mr. Franklin; I
took the (prisoner into another room, as
stated by Mr. Franklin; it was a couple of
hours after the interview spoken of by Mr.
Franklin Ilwe were alone; I talked familiarly
with him ; said, "Chris . I want to have a
talk with yo about this money;" I said to
him, "the statement you made about the n
money is fortunate for yon, for I am sat
isfied it IS not true; I am satisfied that you
committed some crime in getting it, and
while we are wasting time in this matter the
real culprit in this murder case may escape.
and if that is the case I would like to know
it now; tell me the truth; if it is petty , lar
? eny, and is outside of this murder,l'll not
use it against you." I cautioned particularly
about it being outside the murder; I told
him I did not believe his story about
"Harry" 'and Stall.
Question—After this assurance, that if it
was not connected with the murder, it
would not be used against him, did he ac
count for the money?
Mr. Brooke objected to this as improper,
because there was a direct inducement
from the officer in order to secure the state
ment.
District Attorney withdrew the question,
after explaining that his only object was to
show that the prisoner had had an oppor
tunity to explain the possession of the
money, even if it had been the result of a
crime other than the murder.
Officer .Ammon Holden sworn—l have
known the prisoner since last July a year,
I saw him at the Germantown Station
House; he spoke to me first; when I went
in he was in conversation with his father;
when he saw me he came across the room
and wanted to put his arms around my
neck, and asked me if I would forgive him
for whatlhe had done; I told him I would
forgive him for everything but •the crime;
I told him if he would sit down and be
calm I would talk with him, he sat on the
bench, and I asked him what he had done
this for. 1
The counsel for prisoner objected to the
conversation, because it had been ruled that
no confeSsion could be admitted where the
questiokeliciting it was based upon the
assumption of the prisoner'sguilt.
To the Judge—The' interview took place
on the Thursday following the Coroner's
inquest.
The Court decided to have Officer Taggart
recalled in order to have his statement
more fully.
Mr. Taggart resumed.—l held out no in
ducement or threat to make the prisoner
confess the murder; none whatever.
Cross-examined—ln the cell I went over,
the whole case, but I didn't tell him plainly
that I believed he committed the murder,
but I have no • doubt' he understood me; I
told hint the case had assumed a very black
look fo him; I pointed out the circum
stances that pointed to his guilt; I did not
say to him that they pointed ,to
to hieguilt;
I referred tojthe contradictions;commenced

mean I presented the, contradictions to him
to, see what other Statements he had to
make.
F _
The Court, after hearing counsel, ruled.
that, sti l ler as the alleged confession to Mr.'
Holden was concerned,the principle did not
apply. It was a conversation that took place
several days after that of Mr: Taggart's, and
was preceded with a distinct declaration
from Mr. Holden that he would forgive
everything but the crime.
Mr.Holden,resumed.—When I said" Why
did you do this?" he said he did it for want
of money. I asked him why he didn't tell
me or his father that he wanted meney; he
said he thought I had enough to do at home,
and I think he said he had already got $l5O,
or something of that kiud; - I asked him why
be didn't say something about it when he
was at; my house that week; he was there
twice; he said be thought I had plenty to do,
thathe had got money from his father; he said
he could not get work and wanted money;
he left my house on the 20th of July last,
and be had no work then;"l told him I had
offered him a job and his father had offered
him one; he said that was last summer; he
gave me no account of where he had gone
that Saturday; I asked him why he did not
tell us of his destitute condition when he took
the razor from his father's house on Tues
day; be was to both houses on that day; I
don't know what answer he made to that.
[The witness, who is the father-in-law of
the prisoner, was greatly affected during the
time he was under examination. At the
same time the prisoner was evidently in
fluenced by the distress of the witness, and
during the time he was on the stand Berger
kept his face buried in his handkerchief.]
The Court adjourned at • the close of this
witness's testimony.
CaroAcio, Jan. 27.—The citizens of Valpa
raiso, Ind., have just organized a city go=
vernment, and'have determined to cele
brate the event on our national anniver
sary-. For this purpose, a letter was sent
to Hon. Schuyler Colfax, to be the orator
on the occasion. Mr. Colfax replies that it
is impossible for him to give now any posi
tiVe reply; for, as yet, no one can predict
whether Congress will or will not be in
session in that month, owing to pending
questions of importance and magnitude.
If Congress should remain in session until
late in June, the engrossing nature of the
duties devolving on him would leave no
time for the preparation of an oration. Mr.
Colfax adds; "I dislike to say no, positively,
to an invitation so unanimously signed, and
if in the spring it seems evident that my
time on the 4th of July will be at my com
mand, and it is then the general desire of
citizens of all parties that I should come, I
may be able to respond affirmatively."
A man named Peters, who went all the
way to Germany to marry a supposed
widow, discovered on his return to this
city, that she had another husband living,
and that he by law was .a bigamist, whereat
instead of seeking the law's correction, he
undertook to commit suicide by taking
poison. His attempt was frustrated by the
interference of a medical gentleman.
The Common Council of this city passed
an ordinance some months since, authoriz
ing a tunnel to be built under the Chicago
river at Washington street, provided the
citizens living on that street would con
tribute one hundred thousand dollars, to be
raised by the first of February. Up to this
hour not a dollar Las been raised, and the
Washington street tunnel will probably fall
through.
A despatch from St. Paul, dated to-day,
says some gentlemen have just reached
there from Forts Wadsworth and Aber
crombie. They represent that all is quiet
ou the frontier. There is but little snow
west and north of Fort Abercrombie; but
from St. Paul to Abercrombie, the snow
averages three feet. Buffalo and all kinds
of game are plenty, and the Indians are
reaping a rich harvest.

CAIRO, Jan. 25.—0 n Friday last a man
named Greene, while standing in his store
door, in Granada, Mississippi, was shot by
some person unknown, and almost instantly
killed. The night previous another man by
the name of Tell was called out of his house
and shot dead by an assassin, who escaped.
It is said that Tell was the party who gave
information which led to the arrest of Mat.
Saxton, several months ago, and that this
was the cause of his death at the hands of
some of Saxton's friends and former follow
ers. Greene, it is said, was killed for ex
pressing sympathy for Tell and denouncing
his murderer.
The Grenada Gazette states that on the

Lieutenant Charles H. Hunting. The next
night the cars were fired into at the same
place.
