hood of Pantin, near Paris, France, about
two months ago. One Traupman was arrest

In France the. public interest was aroused
to the highest pitch, but all inquiries were
unsuccessful. Spiritual mediums were en-
ployed, but could elicit no information.
Our news was only fragmentary, and the

US. The Opinion Rationale informs its
readers that Traupman has made full con-
fession. Traupman is alone guilty. We
give his condensed account of the facts:

whole family.
On September Goth, after completing his
preparations, Traupman took the Kincb
family in q facre to Pantin. On reaching
the Chemin Vert Green lanel he made Mrs
Kinck and the two youngest children gel
out. After passing the last houses on thi:
narrow, crooked, and dark street, they
came into the plain. The ditch had beer
dug in hollow deep enough to prevent
