tent Confession Of "A Professional Burglar.
The Times announced the confinemento of Ellis
at the Sixth Ward Station-house several weeks
ago, but refrained from mentioning him by
name, for fear that it would injure If not defeat
the plans of the detectives. 1t merely stated
that the prisoner was supposed to have some
knowledge of the murder, although the reporter
was in full possession of all the facts in the
case, which, as 1t was believed, we're not known
to more than four persons.
One of these was the late Superintendent
Jourdan, whose suspicious fastened on For
roster from remark which Ellis was reported
to have made in the State Prison, where he was
imprisoned for burglary. 1t was told to the
late superintendent that Ellis had said, on hear
log of the Nathan murder, that he had planned
with Forester previous to his arrest and sem
teDce to "crack the house of Mr.. Nathan, in
Twenty-third street. Mr.. Jourdan promptly
obtained q writ of hdbeds corpus from Judge
Cardozo, and had Ellis brought from Sing-Sing
in secret manner, and placed in the franklin
Street Station House, where he was kept in the
most rigid seclusion.
Before Mr.. Jourdan had sufficient time to-
elicit any confession from Ellis he died, leaving
to Judge Cardozo, relative of Mr.. Nathan, and
Judge Bowling, his most intimate friend. to-

Kelso, his Chief Detective and subsequent sue
cessor, became aware that he entertained any
suspicious against Ellis or Forester. After
keeping Ellis here for six weeks, he was sent
back to State Prison without having peached on
his ''pal."
In consideration of the premature publication
of some of the minor facts about the detectives
operations, 1t will not do any harm to mention,
now that Ellis has been constantly watched by
fellow-convict ever since he re-entered the
prison doors at Sing Sing. At one time the de-

THE RENEWAL OF Insurance PoLGcIEs.-A
decision of the Commissioner of Internal Re-
venue on the question whether tue renewal
receipt attached to a fire policy should
be stamped states that when by the terms
of the policy it expires by Limitation in one
year. the rene wal receipt continues new
contract, renewing or continuing the policy for
another year. 1t should therefore have stamps
to the same amount as the original policy.
Some misapprehension on this subject has been
occasioned by the exemption of receipts from
stamp duty, under section fourteen OF the act
of July H. 1870. Previous to that amendment,
receipts for premiums, which simply prevented
q policy from expiring by reason OF non-per-
iormance of its conditions, as in the case OF
common form of life policies of indefinite dura-
tion were held to require only two cent receipt
stamp. Accordingly they are now considered
as coming under the general exemption of re-
ceipts. There is no other change in the stamp
tax affecting insurance. Any writing, whether
called receipt" or otherwise which contains
a contract, renewing policy that has expired
from any cause or is about to expire by limita-
tion, should be stamped the same an original
policy.
