content themselves Tor the present with sur-
mise ard couiuctuse in lieu Of definite nowa.
It is now believed that they aze il POSSESSION
OF a clue nhich may eventually lead TO the de-
lection OF the culpsit. OF courss Supcrinsend-
cnt Jourdan and his men deny tho existence
there il very good reason to believe that
they arc at laet on the right track
The ctua above mentioned was obtained in
rather singular tnanLer On the last day OF
the Saratoga races 3lr. E. o. Hart, rclativsof
the murdered man, Was in conversation with
hlr. schenck. 3r., who resides at Tl,irty-foutl1
Et1ret and Fifth avennc. The murder was
teuclad upon, and Mr.. Hart was describing the
"dos" with which it WAS committed, when he
va. cstonlehed at hearing Alr. Schenck re-
marx. - know that tool perfectly veil. It
wa6 stolen from our house last falf.'' Nr.
sShenck further said th.s had used the instFu-
msnt to open cases Of WHO aad remembered
itvtsy we'll. He described it 90 accurately
that Mr.. Hart requested him to sec it, and
idcntifyit it il lle ct,nfa. II il understood that
Mr.. Schenrk has einee identide the dog as
the cne etolen from his residence.
The robbery at aIr. Sche:,ck's house ia sup
posed TO have been committed by three men.
of whom two are in prison at Sing Sing, for
burglary. The third was a: large until 4 fe.
days ago, when he WAS arrested on some petty
charge and imprisoned ii tbs To1bs.
His name il Eagan, and lie is the man With
whom !oune Kelly Was proved TO have beor
intimate. Should tho s',,lioe be able to trace
the robbery OF Mr- Schsnek's house to these
lafee man, or to any ono Of th ern they will be
il fs:r way to ulravel one ef tho most per:
picking murder mss:crics that New York ha'
ever produced.
THIS IL tho story told by responsible petsons
md It Is most probably true.
In conuection with tiir ia another storr, no
70 we'll authenticated. 1t is reported that OF
the night Of the murder, At about II O'Clock, ,
prominent ha,ker was passing the residence
Of 11r. Nathan, when lie ssE nati a,cond th'
