New YORK, June 11.-As to why he

meUt that ke first knew Mr.. Carpenter in

ter says he painted his portrait in 1858,
and says the fact is attested by a notice Of

to the question, when did you first hear Of
the scandal, Mr.. Carpenter said ::
My first intimatiOn Of wrong

family, now dead, during visit she made
to my studio in 1871, Just afCer Tilton's
rupture with Bowen. He then heard some
thing of it from TiltOn himself before the
Woodruff publication. When that publi-

News was brought to the city yesterday
Of a horrible crime committed Thursday
evening in Rutherford county. Nothing

IL. lS75.-YOur telegram for full paIticu-
lars Of the Jarrett murder is just received.
From all the startling rumOTs that have
reached here, the following statements are
deemed to be the most reliable:
Mrs. W. r. Jarrett, whose residence is
near the Salem pike, about seven miles
southwest Of this place, after preparing her
children yesterday afternoon Tor an even
ing visit, sent them, in charge Of a ser
vaut, TO Col. Morgan's "a near neighbOr),
telling them she would follow as soon as
she could get ready. About two hours
later-say $50 p. N her husband, in com
panv with Mr.. Dink Lawrence, returned
home and there found his wife, whom he
had left the personifcation of health, hap
piness and life but few hours before, in
the cold embrace Of death.

Woodson is accused of the crime and now
under arrest. If in the COrOner's inquest
he is proven guilty, be will hardly see to-
morrow's sun, as the ropes in the Salem
neighbOrhOOd are stronger than was that
employed in 10 Reeds case.
Mr.. jarrett has a store mile or so from
home. and he was at the store when the
murder was committed. he is a well
known and highly respected ciLizen-hts
family being held in the highest esteem by
the community.
Murdered, was the instantaneous CON
clusion-the blOOdthirsty wretch having
apDarentlv committed the atrOciOus and in
human deed bv tieing, drawing and twist
ing with his worthless hand a twine cord
around the neck Of this innocent and esti-
mable lady until he strangled her to death,
leaving the prints Of his fingers upon her
throat and arms. SiXty-three dollars was
missing, and robbery was evidently the
sole motive Of the atrOCiOus crime.
The Coroner went out 10 investigate the
mystery to-day, but has not yet returned.
The death Of Mrs. Jarrett, while the
manner Of it curdles the blood in horror,
has cast a gloom over a wide circle OF

between their companies. The meeting
has been m, st harmonious and basis for a
permaIsnt arrangement between the COM
panies will be submitted to their respective

The probable basis of arrangement will
be the giving back by the Pennsylvania rail
road to the Baltimore and Ohio, the terminal
and road facilities enjoyed prior TO the
railroad war, and the establishment of
summer freight tariffs such as prevailed
last year. It is also probable that passen-
ger rates will be fixed on the Saratoga basis.
