THE NOE MYSTERY.
TWO MORE SUSPECTED PARTIES ARRESTED, BU
NOT THE MEN.

TWO MORE SUSPECTED PARTIES ARRESTED, BUT
NOT THE MEN.
Like its memorable predecessors the Rogers and the
Nathan MURDERS the shocking tragedy OF Greenwich
street bids fair to remain unsolved mystery. The
murderer still remains undiscovered, and each succeed
ing day renders his detection less and less probable
At Police Headquarters the universal clamor the
part of the press and public for the utmost possible
vigilance and effort TO catch the murderer has been
productive of activity rarely witnessed At all hours
Of the day since the tragedy occurred Superintendent
Walling be holding consultations with
the detectives and the latter with air Of such
secrecy and solemnty that the groups of reporters
anxously waiting in the lobbies for further develop
ments, are kept in continuous state Of eversh expec
tation
On Friday night this was especially the case Two OF
the Central Office detectives hurryng into
the Supernendent's room, their countenances filed
with mystery They remained closeted with the Chief
for long tme after which they went away as full Of
mystery and importance when they came and TO all
inquiries ofthe reporters they returned evasve replies
admitting however, that cew had been obtained from
which might be expected within the next twenty-o
hours developments of considerable Importance. From
their manner and the hints let fall it evident that
something had transpred which threw light on the
mystery Yesterday however, all hopes in this direc
tiOn were exploded
The of all this mystery and expectation arose in
this wise. Two days ago young man named wllmott
employed in the store of G. +. Matege at the corner
OF Warren and Greenwich Streets called on Supernen-
dent Walling and informed him that the morning of
the murder, shortly before eight O'Clock he had OBJ
served ascending the ladder leading from the un-
finished building to that of Mr. Noe and although he
did not pay very particular attention to the circum-
stance, he believed he could identify the should no
see him. The description given by Mr. Willmott of the
burglars appearance Tailed exactly with that noted
panel thief named Jack Green; and impressed with the
belief that the burglar who committed the murder had
an accompice with him at the time the Superintendent
favored the notion that Green such accomplice To
find the latter detectives sent in every direction
At last after the search seemed almost hopeless the
gought-for man was discovered at Long Branch and
brought to this city.
At the Central Office he confronted with Mr..
Wllmot but the latter could positively identify
him as the person he had seen although he admitted
a resemblance existed. Green was thereupon dis
charged.
Yesterday morning another buzz of excitement was
created by the entrance Of Captain Lowery the Sixth
precinct into the Superintendents Office with prs-
named Jack Wilson, whom the Captain arrested on
suspicion of being implicated but evidence appear
ing against him he taken to Court and discharged
Although all efforts thus far have been fruitless
Superintendent Walng is not without hopes of even
tually capturing the murderer.
