A VERY STRANGE CASE.
In the Criminal Court this morning,
the case of Frank Lynch, indicted for the
murder Of his child, was called, and i'm
medIstely his counsel, Messrs. Stillwagen,
Moore and Gibson, moved that the in
dic.ment be qIsshed on the ground that
the information was made Dy his wife
and she WAS the only witness against
him before the grand jury. The case Is
strange, AS Lynch suddenly confessed
ono day last winter, tba he had
thrown his little child from bridge
over the Allegheny river and drowned
it. He gave no motive for the deed, and
told dozen different tales o. the affair.
A month or so ago the remains of an in
fan, we're found near We.Isyille, but
whether it was Lyuch's or not csnnot be
demonstrated except by the evidence Of
Mrs. Lynch. In case the Court sustsins
the objection to Mrs. LyGch's cOHpcten-
cv. the defendant will have TO be dis
charged. as the Commonwealth WILL
then have no case sgslnst him. We'd
resday morning has been fixed as tho
time lo- arguing the point.
