BRIDGEPORT, CONN, Nov. G.--The
trial of Mrs. Alexander, charged with the
murder of "Stuttering jack" in connec-
ton with her paramour, Bassett, was re-
sumed to-day. Intense interest was
manifested in the proceedings, and the
courtroom was crowded. MANY ladies
of the best circles of society were pre-
sent. Mrs. Alexander took the witness
stand at 8 A. NJ, and with the exception
OF an hours recess remained there until
the adjournment. Her cross examina-
tion commenced early in the day, and the
statements elected were regarded as very
damaging to the accused, while claiming
that she assisted Bassett through fear of
her life, yet she admitted that she had a
loaded pistol in the room where she re-
manned most of the time during the per-
petration of the act. She did not try to
escape because the doors were locked
Yet Bassett went away and was gone be-
tween half and full hour, leaving the
door untastened. After Basset's arrest
for theft, she still did not reveal the crime
because she was afraid his friends wonld
Kill her, although none of them knew 1t.
She wrote letter at Bassett's dictation
to DIR. Sanford, saying she knew where
to obtain three bodies if she had the ad-
dress of trustworthy resurrectionist.-
Two of the three referred to were her
former husband, William Clay, and her
son-in-law, Thomas Baker both living.
She expected to find Clay dead in the
street on account Of his Incorporate
habits and obtain the body by claiming
1t, yet she had not seen him for two or
three years, and supposed him to be ly-
ing in New York. She expected to get
Bakers body, because Bassett intended
to be revenged on him for an imagined
insult, She had sent away barrels and
boxes of clothing to friends several times
while living here, but the barrels, with
one exception, were purchased in New
fork. She had an understanding with
DIR. Sanford that if bare ,.iih n sub
ject reached him with the initials J.. T..
A. thereon, he would know that it was
from her and would remit the money.
She placed these initials on the barrel
while Ell route.

HUMAN GHOULS DRAG IT FROM IT'S
LAST NESTING PLACE.
NEW YORK, NoAe nber 7.-Judpe Hill
ton rushed into the police headquarters
this morning greatly excited and held a
consultation with Inspector Dlks. lie
stated that the body of A. L. Stewart was
missing from its resting place in the fami-
ly vault a. st. Marks church yard at
Stuyvesant place aud Second avenue.
The vault, he said, had been broken
open, the casket was found in the vault,
but the body was missing. Inspector
Dilks at once sen out an order to all u o
precincts setting forth the facts of the
robbery and saying that decomposition
of the remains is so offensive that they
cannot be concealed and that thoy can
not be taken across the ferries withou:
discovery.
Early on the morning of October 7, lust
month ago, the assis ant sexton of ST.
Marks church discovered that the Stewart
family vault had been tampered with.
The s'one slab had been removed from its
position and the earth dug up several feet.
As the slab was not over the opening of
the vault the thieves did not get at the
body. The sexton reported the matter to
Judge Hilton, who ordered the slab
placed few feet from its true position,
IN order 10 deceive any one attempting to
steal the body. A watchman was also
engaged, and he patrolled the graveyard
every night until very recently. The dis
covery of the outrage was made at 8 o.
clock this morning. The robbers had re-
moved one stone from the opening to the
vault, broken open the three coilins in
which the body was inclosed, and carried
away the contents, II is supposed, in a
sack. The ground directly over the EN-
trance to the vault was as it had been
left by the robbers.
The clay was scattered about and one
OF the three stones which covered the
opening OF the vault was out OF place
leaving small aperture about Is in
ches wide and thirty inches long through
which the persons who stole the body
effected an entrance and after unscrew-
ing the lid of the outer box, which was
of pine, went to work upon Tie leaden
box which iucloscd the oak casket
with knife and gradually cut the
cover of. 1t was then an easy mater
to open the casket and take the remains
| out and hoist them to the surface, where
they were evidently placed in wagon
=, and borne away. The robbers wrench
ed the plate off the casket and left a
small galvanized iron shovel, with which
| they dug the two feet of earth covering
the entrance to the vault away, and a
new pocket lamp behind them. The
robbery has created great excitement
In the neighborhood and large crowd
surrounds the graveyard.

FIFTH EDITION.
English Sentiment Regarding
the General Result.

LONDON, Nov. 8.
The Tunes, in leading editorial arti-
Gle commenting on the elections in the
United States, says :-"It Is with very
sincere satisfaction that we publish the
results of the November electious In the
United States. The gravity of the issues
on which the voters had practically to
decide could scarcely be over-estimatcd,
and there was some ground for the APP
prehension that the caprice of the de-
mocracy might turn the scale in favor of
reckless agitation and ruinous policy.
Now, ~ often before, the coed sense
of the American people has come to the
rescue just in time to save the country
from the consequences of party blunder-
ing andimmoratity of professional politi-
clans. Little thanks are due to the lead
ers of The republican party and still les
to those of the democrats. Neither side
can be exonerated from the guilt of pal
tering with ibfiationists, repudationist
and socialist agitations which cuminatei
in tho formation of the greenback- la Dor
party" The Times thinks that 1t Ia not
Improbable that both Messrs. Tilden and
Thurman will disappear from the front
ranks of the democrats before 1880, and
that Mr.. Bayard will be their candidate
for Presidency.
