MRS. NACK SENTENCED.
Will Spend riltccn Years In tho Ponl
toutlitrf. New York, Jan 10. Mrs. Augusta Nnck,
Jointly charged with Martin Thorn, the
murderer of (luldensuppo, u bath rubber,
nt Woodslde, I.. I., In June ol Inst year,
was today sentenced to llftecu years In.
tho Htntn prlxon ut Auburn. The good
time nllowunco nltalnuble would reduce
the term to ten years and live months.
Thorn was sentenced to be electrocuted
during the week beginning today, but tho
appeal taken by his attorney acted as n.
stuy. Mrs. Nuck received Her sentence
culmlj She will bo taken to Ailburn as
soon as the necessary forms of proceduro
can, be gone through with.
In sentencing her, the court sought to
Impress upon her that although she was
cquullv guilty with Thorn, she had made
a wise mine when sho dt elded to becomi
n witness for the state. Judge Uarret
mjh sal I tho court was bound to recognize
the assistance Mrs. Nuck lendcrcd In tes
tifying against Thorn.
As Mrs. Nnck was being led from the
mart room she wept copiously, but when
she reached her room she became more
composed. Mrs. Nnck spoke In bitter
terms of Mr. Miles, pastor ot the Ha ens
wood I'resbj terlan chtirih, characteriz
ing him as u "deceitful liar." She said
that Mr. Miles pretended to be her friend
while she was In Jail, and that all he
came there for was to get Information
which he sold to New York newspapers.
She said that on one occasion he came to
her and offered her $2T0 which he said he
had rtceled from tho newspapers tor
gllng them the story of her Hie. She
said she told him she did not want this
monev, but ho li sited upon her taking tt.
lie also asked her to give $." ot the money
to his wife. Mrs. Nnck said she refused
to do this. She then said Mr. Miles told
her be would gle the ?7 to his wife, say
ing It e inie fiom Mrs. Nnck Mrs fsaek
said that Mr. Miles gae $10 of the money
to one of the unfortunate women In the
Jill. Hhe said he also offered one of the
keepers $10. but the keeper relused to ac
cept It. Mrs. Nack then went on to tell
how $1W of the $230 was Hnallv turned
over to Sheriff Doht, who she said, put
It In the bank to her credit.
At Sing Sing this afternoon Warden
Sage had a brief conversation with Mnr
ton Thorn.
The warden said "Thorn, Mrs. Nack
has been stnleneed to lltteen ears' im
prisonment I suppose you will be Inter
ested to know that."
Thorn looked up Indifferently: "The
newspapers said she would get off that
way. '
"What do ou think about It7" asked
the warden.
"Oh, I don't know," replied Thorn "t
don't caie much about It one way or tho
other."
Thorn then spoke to the warden about
the vvecutlon ot Hadley A. Sutherland,
the negro, today, and said:
"This ought to have been mv day. Von
know I was sentenced to die today."
To this tho wardm replied: 'Hut ou
know ou hue a stn which means that
ou lime a chance ot '
"Well 1 would rat lit r h.ive gone off to
day than h ie anv finthcr clelav.
Thorn Intimated that he did not expTt
a new trial or a commutation of the 'eath
sentence.
When Warden Sage again retcirod to
the sentence oi Mrs. Nack, Thorn showed
plainly be did not care to expicss anv
opinion as to whether he was displease 1
or satisfied that Mrs Nack should re
ceive such a rnmp.irntlvc.lv light sen
tence for her part In the murder of Guld
ensuppe. MYSTERY OF A CORPSE.

Now York, Jan. 10. There was a halt
In the bull movement on tho stock ex
change today, tho upward'eourse of prices
meeting with some obstacles. The buoy
ancy manifested bv some speclnl stocics
was not suhiclcnt to overcome the gen
eral tendency entirely, and prices as a
rule uro somewhat lower. There was
some pressure to sell for London account
and prices of Americans were lower In
London before the opening heie. There
was a disposition reported from that cen
tre to take an unfavorable view of the
future of values In this country. There
was also some selling to lenllze In con
tinuation of Saturday's prollt taking. The
readiness of traders to realize) gave
weight to the opinion of some of tho
professionals that technical condition
woio not good at present for a prolonged
rise This opinion Is based on a belief
that largo lines ot stocks are already in
the hands of spcculatois awaiting n rise.
These holdings. It Is ni sued, might be
dislodged bj a slight reaction and passed
to tho hands of huge combined Interests.
Doubtless tho ft ar of some such man
ouvres caused some of the smaller opera
tors to pause In their buying toduy. It
also gave confidence to tho bears, who
sold some of the leading Blocks quite ag
gressively. Tho market was, however,
dull as compaied with the latter part of
last vviek. The total sales wero 333,900
shares.

And in order to reduce stock
to the lowest possible working
point, we've decided to
Slaughter All Prices to such
an extent as to make buying
now an object, even when
goods are not wanted for im
mediate use. Imagine buying
Alexander Smith & Son's fine
Moquette Carpets at 75c a Yard
These are identical with goods
that have been represented and sold
as Axminster Carpets in this city.
Within three months it will be im
possible to get a yard of these un

Prices apply to the entire stock,
the reductions being on a par with
the Carpet figure just quoted.
