PHILADELPHIA, April 2s, 1874.
The trial and death sentence Of Heidenbut, the
murderer OF Godfrey Kuhnk, were fully reported In
the HERALD columns last January. A few
days alter the official report OF the trial and
sentence were forwarded to Governor Hartranft
Since this sentence has been passed the murderer
has remained in mis- cell, seeing but very few peo-
pie ana enjoying very bad heath. He IS from one
oi the most ignorant sections of Germany. and
speaks no English Whatever. Since that tine also
Governor Hartranft has Jailed to sign the death
warrant. and 1t Is said on authority that he Will
never sign it. THIS Will really render the penalty
OF his crime
IMPRISONMENT FOR LIFE.
The Keepers OF the prison regard Heidenblut as
o weak minded fellow, dreadfulIy iiterate and
uniformed, and say that he does not know the
lull enormity or the crime he has committed
This opinion also Is prevalent at Harrisburg, 1t is
SAID, and hence 1t is probable that HedenDlut will
escape the gallows. There are two other parties
beside him in the prison now whose death SEN
fences have never been en.Orced.
