for New York on Wednesday last.
The doctor, who knew her from child
hood, identified her by a vaccine mark
on the left elbow. The dentist by q
tooth which he had extracted and the
filling of others. There were also
moles on the left side Of the neck and
body which confirmed the Identification.
Warden Brennan, by whom these gen.
tlemen were induced to appear in order
to identify the girl, has been acquainted
with other facts which established fully
the correctness of the statement Of
these gentlemen, but which will be kept
until the inquest by the desire of the
relatives of the deceased.
The case Of DR.. Rosenwig, alias Asher,
charged with the death OF the young
girl found in the trunk, engrosses pub
lie attention, and has drawn from the
press thorough and searching expose
of many other establishments similar
to that kept by Rosenwig. A reporter
of a morning paper called upon DR..
Rosenwig at the Office in Fifth avenue,
to make a thorough investigation. TO
avoid suspicion he took lady with
him as companion. On ringing the bell
the pair were admitted by an elderly
woman, and on entering observed a
young girl with blue eyes and beautiful
blonde curls, gold tinged, and a clear
alabaster complexion. She seemed EN-
barrassed at the presence OF strangers
and soon disappeared. The visitors
were ushered into gorgeously fur
nished room, and the doctor then made
his appearance. The gentleman stated
he desired to consult him professionally.
Rosenwig that he comprehend
ed his meaning exactly. He desired to
release lady from difficulty. He then
inquired the symptoms. The reporter
then stated supposed case, and
asked the doctor what he could do
in the circumstances. Rosenwig said
he would not fool him; he (the re-
porter must be aware Of the risk. lie
wanted 5000 for the operation, and ne
promised that he would see the lady
through the operation safely. But the
result, inquired the visitor; what would
be done with that? A significant look
and motion accompanied the answer OF
the doctor; he would take care OF the
result; the parties need not be appre-
hensive. The visitor asked, What can
be done to save the reputation Of the
parties if anything occurred? Rosen-
wigs answer came in whisper: he
also could settle that; could give mar.
riage or burial certificate; had equal
facilities for both. He then asked if
the lady with the visitor was the lady
in question. Being answered In the
negative, he said he would take care
OF the result if anything happened in
the newspapers. He would take the
child to the river at night, and who
would be the wiser? If the lady died
she too could be taken care OF without
trouble. He had the same facilities as
Madam Pestell and the rest Of them.
He suddenly became suspicious OF the
visitors, and asked why they had not
brought the lady, as promised. lie
asked what be meant-why edge OF so.
The reporter said he only wanted infor-
nation, and did not bind himself. The
doctor was infuriated. and called the
visitors liars, sneaks towards, and pre-
pared to attack the reporter, saying he
would kill him. He is q large, powerful
man. He moved his hand as if to draw
knife or pistol. The reporter drew a
revolver, which intimidated the doctor,
and in the confusion the visitors with
drew.
