NEW YORK, Jan. 2s.-Today witness sup
posed to be lying at the point Of death on
Black Wells leland will be examined with
reference to the Rogers murder, and it is ex.
pected that disclosures will be made
that will fully implicate James Logan,
now In custody as the murderer. This i'm
portant witness is q woman named Martha
Clearwater, with whom it is said that Logan
was on terms of intimacy. A synopsis OF what
1t is expected she will state is that on the
morning when Mr.. Rogers was assassinated,
this James Logan went to her house on Greene
street bare. headed, and with his coat half torn
of his back, that she exchanged his torn coat
for a whole one, and gave him hat, and that
be then remained close at her house for two or
three days afterwards. The Investigations OF the
Mayor, District Attorney, and Coroner have led
them 10 believe that this woman can, if she will
produce the other half of the coat worn by the
murderer on that morning. Last evening q
guard was placed on the island to frustrate auy
attempt that might be made to spirit her away,
