The Goodrich Murilerexs.

NRw YORK, July l5.-Great interest
is still manifested in the case OF Lizzie
Lloyd King, alias Kate Stoddard,
charged with the killing OF Charles
Goodrich, in Brooklyn. Crowds flock
to the jail in Raymond street to gee her
but very few eucceed in doing so. She
is as dumb as an oyster on TIE subject
OF the murder. She will not talk except
TO her counsel, and for him she is writ
ing a lull statement Of her case and her
history from her childhood up to the
present time. She is now twenty-six
years OF age, was born in Plymouth,
Massachusetts, and lived there until she
was eighteen. Her fathers name
is Isaac King, and is still alive, and
carries on the trade Of mason. She
has one sister named Augusta, married
and living at walbridge, Massachusetts.
So far as the tragedy is concerned,
while in moderately good spirits,
she docs not take very sangulne view
of the issues; the State Prison seems
to hang over her mind like An immense
shadow. Among other pecullaritles she
is pl letending to be very religious, and
is reading the Bible and Episcopal
PRAYER book constantly. 1t is said that
che even had the temerity to attend the
funeral of her victim, and that she went
up near the hearee and touched the
coffin. The police are still on the
lookout for Roscoe. Kate Stoddard
declares she does not know aud has
never seen him, while the woman Arm
strong is positive sbe saw them togeth-
er. One of the Jurors hinted yesterday
there was good deal more in this
Goodrich tragedy than has yet been
given to the public, and adds that there
is an important link still wanting.
