he Is around, and ho prefers to exist on the
Income of othors rather than work. No I

so, for ho would suffer by tho contrast lu

such calamity. Montague Is a blesmd

New York, Ot. . The web of evl
dence that has been woven amund
Martin Thorn In connection with the
charge nsalnnt him of the murder of
William (Juldensuppp was strengthened
yesterday by a confession mad to As
sistant District Attorneys Mitchell and
Hosnlsky. It would appear that the
new thread of evidence comes from a
Toml.s prls.iiirr who was ono of Them's
cellmates.
The newly discovered evidence was
transcribed from a stenographer's notes
yesterday afternoon, and when District
Attorney oleott left hie olllce the con
fesslon was locked up In a safe and the
few ti ho knew of its existence wero lu
structed to say nothing about It.
Hut the facts, os nearly as they can
be ascertained, are these:
District Attorney Oleott received a
mcsfnr;e on Monday from Frank Clark,
a prlponor In the Tombs, that he had
some very importont Information that
he wanted to furnlph the district at
tomcy. Mr. Oleott sn a mesnpr to
the Tombs to see Clark, who hafl ben
locked up nearly two months on the
chr.rsre of forgery. Clark Is awaiting
trial
It Is only possible to give the sub
stance of Clark's statement. Clark be
gan by saving that he was one of thi
five men who were locked up In retls
21 and 30 in the hospital ward of the
Tombs when Th .rn was brought theis.
a prisoner and plaoed In the same cell
Thorn was very gusplclous of his fel
low cellmates for Feveml days, Clarl
snld, and had little or no communica
tion with them. As the days passed
Thorn became more communicative
Clark had an opportunity to aoe those
who enme to see Thorn. At times he
overheard, the- conversations that erc
carried on between Thorn and the lat-
ter's vLsltots. ,
IXirlng these conversations, Clark
sold, he heard Thorn go over the details
of the murder at Ouldensuppo. Several
MARTIN THORN,
of the visitors, Clark said, were work
In "on the outside" for Thorn. They
wero given Instructions what to do' in
certain matters, and frequently deliv
ered letters that Thorn scribbled In his
cell.
In the meanwhile tiro Intlmai H be
tween Clark and Thorn became more
firmly established, and It was at this
period, Clark declared, that Thorn
made some damaging admissions to
him. The precise nature of these ad
missions could not be learned, but It If
said that Clark's statement was of In
estimable v&lue to the prosecution of
Thorn and perhaps of Mrs. Nack. Thorn
and Clark always carried on their con
versations in whispers, as Thorn feare.l
the other occupants of the cell.
The trial of Martin Thorn has been
set for Monday, Oct. IS, by District At
torney Youngs of Queens county. It Is
believed that the trial of Mrs. Nack will
be moved as soon as possible after
Thorn's case has been disposed of.
MRS. NACK'S, LETTER.
She Wrltei to Thorn snd Tells Mlm He
Talks Too Mneh.
Long Island City, N. Y., Oct. o.Mrs
Nack, who is in Jail here, charged with
complicity in the murder of Willlnrn
Guldensuppe, has written a letter to
Martin Thorn, her alleged accomplice
and fellow prisoner, which may have an
important bearing at the trial of the
case, which begins Oct. 18.
Hheriff Doht and one of the keepers,
after a desperate atruggls with Thorn
in his cell, managed to secure the re
mains of the letter, which Thorn had
torn Into.three pieces, and Hried to swul
low when he learned that its existence
had been discovered.
The letter was In German, which, ren
dered Into English, Is: "I send you a
couple of potutoes. If you do not cart
to eat them, perhaps the others will.
Dear child, send mo a few lines as to how
you feel. Dear child, I believe there Is
little hop for us. I feel very badly this
afternoon. Bend me a letter by youi
sister or by your brother-in-law. I wlnh
they would proeure us something si
that we can make an end of our lives.
This would be the best. My attorney
assures me that the evidence against
me is as strong as that against you and
that you have talked too much, which
Injures us both, for the proofs are on
hand."

tho meeting. Ho aroso and com
menced : At a largo and respectable
mooting of tho whig citizens of Pike
county
ytop sir interrupted tho chairman.
it is hardly propor to doscribo by
such a phrase a meeting of only live
persons !
O, yes it ia porfoctly propor, said
the socretary. You soo, air, you are

to a hair.
Tho chairman 'caved in' tho vot

afterwards the publio prints clu$
announced to the delight of oue

Some Peanut Faota.
Tho year book of tho United
States Department of Agriculture
gives some information about pea
nuts which may be of interest. It
says, in addition to the goneral use
of peanuts for food and confection
ery, tho seeds furnish 38 to 50 per
cert of oil. Tho first cold pressing
yields mi almost colorless oil, of
pleasant ta,sto and smell, which is
execllont for table use. Aftor tho
first pressing the seeds aro sprinkled
with water and pressed again, cold,
to obtain tho oil which is also nsod
to some oxtont for food purposes,
but mostly for illumination. The
third oil is extracted by warm pres
sure, and is iu groat demand for
making various kinds of soaps. The
cako is excellent for stock. The oil
is chiefly extracted at Marseilles
Franco, which annually imports one
hundred and thirty seven million
pounds of peanuts. Inthis country
they nre principally used for eating
3,500,000 bushels beinar consumed
annually for that purixiso. Some
IHsoplo however do not eat their
share as that is only about three
pints each to tho present population.
