PROBABLE WIFE MURDER IN PATERSON.

A Marriage That Was Not Blessed-A Man

Throat With n Razor-Two Brave Little
Boys Fight for Her Rescue-Arrest Of tho
Brute-He Hopes She viii Die.
About ten O'Clock yesterday morning an ARRAY oc.
CURED In Marshall street, Paterson, which is almost
certain to end in the death Of che injured party
woman named Rosanna Demand. The
circumstances are briefly as follows Tin
1865 this woman married worthless
dissipated fellow, named John Murray. she was
possessed Of considerable property. owning the
house in which she resided, and she kept little
fancy store at 22l Marshall street. She also owned
several lots. II subsequently transpired that the
principal object Of Murrays marriage to secure
possession OF the property But his wife would pay
no attention to his
ENrREATIEs, THREATS AND DEMANDS,
and she retained possession Of the property that
her husband could not reach It.
Murray, It is alleged, threatened several times to
murder his wife, and was year ago arrested for
attempting 10 take her life with razor; but, for
some unknown reason, the Grand Jury failed to
bring an indictments against him and he was dis
charged. He then tried another course, and twice
ATTEMpTED TO TAKE HIS OWN LIFE,
once by cutting his throat and once by jumping into
the river. He was saved both times. His persecu-
divorce, which she received on the 10Th OF last
month.
Yesterday morning Murray entered her place in
Marshall street and Knocked her down, threw him
self upon her. and, taking razor from his pocket,
proceeded to
CUT Her THROAT.
AS she was lying upon her face the back Of her
neck was presented to him, and he brought the
razor from the side around to the back,
the cut taking on the lower end Of her
ear, which dropped upon the floor. The
scutne had attracted two boys named
William McArdle and John Day. into the place,
little fellows OF about ten or twelve years or age
who p0unced upon Murray just as he was about to
attacked Murray and held him until he was taken
Off .he woman. Other parties came IN and he was
secured until the arrival OF an officer, VINO arrested
MIN and conveyed him to jail.
The injured woman lay In
FOOT OF BLOOD
upon the floor, with her neck horribly cut, present
ing the appearance of semi-decaptatl0n. Surgical
attendance was Immediately summoned. 1t was
believed by oil that she would live only snort
time. At late hour last night she was in SEMI
conscious state, apparently failing very fast.
THE MURDERER WAS VISITED
OF the jail BY the HERALD reporter He says he had
been defrauded out Of his rights and properly, and
he intended to kin his divorced wife and then kill
the injuries he has inflicted even II he has to hang
for 1t tomorrow. II he has not killed her 1t is NOT
his fault And yet the wretch seems perfectly sane,
and While laDorlng under the greatest excitement
appears to mean all he says.

about f0rty.hve years ofAge and the entire commu-
nifty Is In sympathy with TNC. 80 20
