I On the 17th of March. 1878, Mr. Gus- I lave Prlneveau was shot and killed In his private conveyance while returning from a drive with his wife. It was about five o'clock In the afternoon, nnd the carriage at the time was between (ilxty-slxth and Sixty-seventh streets on Fourth avenue, In New York. Mr. Prineveau was seated on the left of his wife In the carriage, which was a two-seated phaeton, and was driven by their man, John Teedson, who sat on the seat In front of them. Mr, Prlneveau, who was sixty-three, died almost instantly, and the post mortem, ' held the next mornlntr at ten o'clock, showed that he had been killed by a pistol bullet that had entered his heart at the fifth intercostal space, glanced upward and severed the aosta. A small hole was found In his vest on the left side corresponding to the bullet The post-mortem examination was a long one. As It was Impossible for either of the other occupants of the carriage to have got round to the left side of Mr, Prlneveau so as to have inflicted the wound without accum 'pllHhlng an unprecedented feat, that would have been seen, and as there was no assignable motive for such an act, the whole purpose of the exqml- THE REASONS WHY Scott's Emulsion of Cod-liver Oil and Ilypophosphites is so useful in all wasting diseases, such as Consumption, Anaemia, Scrofula, Rheumatism,- Bron chitis, and Marasmus and Rick ets in children, is because it furnishes to the depicted blood the fattening and enriching properties of the oil, and to the bones and nervous system the phosphorescent and vitaliz ing properties of the Ilypophos phites, which together nourish the body arrest the progress of the disease, and commence a process of repair that finally meafls restored health and vigor.

The following facts were then elic ited: Mr. Prlneveau had been married a little less than five years to a woman Ho Wore a Hough nnd Sullcd Overcoat who, previous to that marriage, had been known as the widow of a Houth American merchant who bad died while on a visit to Hut-no Ayres. At the time of Mr. Prlneveau's marriage he was reported to be very wealthy, hiiV' Ing amassed a fortune In coal specula tlons In Pennsylvania and New York. He, too, had been previously married, by which marrluge there had been two sons, one of whom had died three years before the father, In California, and the other of whom was still living Bomewhore In Ohio, The only other ro' latum that could be traced was n nephew, Jared Clarkson, about 2S years old; who was a scapegrace, and ha6 lived for several years upon the bounty of Mr. Prlneveau, but whoso whereabouts at the time of Mr. Prlne veau's death could not be ascertained It was shown thut the deceased had been a man of singularly weak churac ter In the management of his estutc; that ho gave away vast sums of money, was easily frightened or cajoled, and that from all accounts his wife's ad vice and influence alone saved him from many foolish speculations and mis fortunes in his old age. Among his papers were found receipts for over one hundred thousand dollars signed by un known persons and covering the four years Immediately preceding his death. I His relations with his wife had always been of the most amiable nnd trustful kind. None of the servants knew of his ever having quarreled with her. Mrs. Prineveau looked after all his per sonal comforts, was continually solici tous about his health, accompanied him everywhere, and bore the reputa tion of being a discreet domestic woman with an obvious affection for a man who was twenty years her senior. There was In his house on Fifth ave nue a servant who had been with them for five years her name was Koe Kenny, nnd she testified thnt about a week before the murder Mr. Prlneveau had been visited at night by the nephew Clarkson. whom she had let In, nod who was seen by Mr. Prlne veau In the library, a small room in the wing at the rear of the house. From appearance she thought the man had been drinking. Ho wore n rough and soiled overcoat and an Imitation nstraknn cop pulled over his face. He stayed over half nn hour In the library, and she heard him from the front parlor speaking In loud and angry tones. She nlmlttfd thnt she had listened, and swore that she heard him say: "Then look out for yourself, for you will not live to accomplish It." To which the old man In a soft voice made some kind of uppenllng reply. This wus about ten o'clock nt night, and Mrs. Prineveau, who had gone to a concert nt Stelnwny hall with a party of friends, hnd not returned. .She came back nt ten minutes of eleven, and, upon making inquiries of the maid, Kosy, learned these fads nnd showed a good deul of Indlgmition be cause Mr. Prlneveau had been subj-cted to the annoyance of a worthless and reckless scapegrace, Mrs. Prlneveau herself corroborated this statement explicitly, but could give very little Information about the hubits or nnteceiidents of Clarkson, ex cept that she hiul lenrned Incidentally from her hunliand (hat he was a drunk ard with a wife ami two children, and, owing to his dissolute habits, hud never been able to take care of himself or Mis family. It was nlSo learned that on the nfler noon of the 14th of March ClnrkMon had been seen by the coachman banging about the house, and the hall boy, who had been sent on nn errand, encoun tered him on the coiner and was there held In conversation by him, Clnrkson nuking him, among other thing, If Mr. Prlneveau did not tulle a drive usually In the afternoons. These bits of testimony,, led to the police efforts to find Clarkson. Mr. Prlneveau was burled In the Trinity cemetry on the l'.ith. His funeral was n( tended by many old New Yorkers, nnd public atteudtlon was turned to the efforts made by Mrs. Prlneveau to tllti cover the perpetrator of the clime, (in the 2l.it Clarkson's wife nnd dill dren were found In it miserable lodging place In Vitrlck street. Hut Clurkson had disappeared. Ills wife promptly acknowledged that he had come home late on the afternoon of the 17th, hnd hurriedly chnnged his clothes nnd gone out. Hlie hnd not Horn him or heard of him since. Hut she strenuously denied thut he had committed a crime, and refused to bo Influenced by any of the damaging circumstances.
