They felt it their dutyt disclose whatever they had to disclose in secret before the authorized body. This fact, however. was disclosed-that there was no sea water in the stomach of the deceased This gives strong support to the theory of foul play, to the theory that the deceased was held under water with her mouth covered to pre- vent screams, until death ensued. It is usually supposed that in the case of person drowned otherwise than bS foul play, water will be swallowed, and often in considerable quantities. Another fact developed at the autopsy is that the breathing and digestive organs of the girl, in fact all the organs of the body, showed no signs of disease. Anoth- CT important fact specially bearing upon the case is that the medical gentlemen found
 confirming the view that the person of the
 deceased had been inviolate until within A
 hours of her death The interest in the case
 became intense as the autopsy was proceed
 ing. It soon became noised around
 that the autopsy was in prog
 ress and outside of the undertaking es-
 tablishment stood the gloomy hearse await
 ing the body. People fingered and one after
 another stopped and late in the afternoon
 crowd had collected, and hearing that the
 unfortunate girl could now be seen, made
 their way into the establishment until the
 whole place was full to overfowing. They
 pushed one by one into the operation room.
 The deceased lay in the casket neatly robed for the grave. It was beautiful casket. The poor girl was arrayed in one of her pretty white dresses, her face visible. Upon the casket, on the silver name plate. was Jennie E. Cramer, aged 20 years and 3 months. A young lady of prepossessing appearance and
 demeanor stood by assisting in the last preparations for the grave. The crowd pres
 sing in and the whole place swarming with people, the undertakers with the aid of Dr.
 Painter by dint of serious labor cleared the
 building and closed the doors The people
 fingered outside to see the remains depart. They were taken to the hearse from 8 side entrance to the premises. beautiful pill low of flowers. upon which was "Jennie" in purple immortelles, rested on the casket, also broken column and vase of flowers. The remains were taken to the residence of the af- ficted family, where services were held by Rev. Mir. Siebke, pastor of the Lutheran church on Wooster street, after which the re- mains were taken, accompanied only by the family and immediate friends, to the place of interment ill the Evergreen Cemetery. With many tears shed the poer girl was placed to rest in the silent tomb.
 What will be testified to this morning The physicians subjected the contents of the stomach of the deceased to thorough anal { 1,e disclosed. The state of the sexual and other organs will be made known. The Messrs. Malley will testify and if necessary produce many witnesses to show that they were not at the west shore that fatal night. The merry-go-round men will tell of seeing 8 young woman, answering to the deceased, riding around on the horses with young man with black moustache First Leuten- ant Waite, of the Blues, will testify to seeing Walter Malley, Miss Cramer and another couple coming away from the Edward Malley residence early Thursday morning, which does not tally with the story of Miss Doug lass, that she and Jennre spent the previous night together at the hotel Mrs. Beecher will probably tell of the piercing scream of a woman she heard coming from the direction of Kelsey's wharf on the fatal night while she was up attending to sick grandchild, and to seeing beach wagon with two men drive by coming to this city soon after. She heard no more after that and busied herself with the sick child. These and others, per haps, will be heard.
 Mr. Geo. Audley, son of Charles AudleY, whose stable office is in Trumbull street,
 near Whitney avenue. says he was in his of flee at about 9 o'clock Friday afternoon, and recognized Miss Jennie Cramer pass and with her was a young man who wore 8 straw hat with a blue band and white spots on it. Mir.
 Audley spoke to John Kenealey, the hostler,
 about it, and he saw the girl and remarked that she was fine looking.
 Yesterdays New York Tribune says: In the report telegraphed from New Haven of the death of Jennie Cramer, it was stated that woman named Blanche Douglass, who gave her residence as No. 175 Spring street, this city, has been her companion. report CT of the Tribune called at the house in Spring street and saw Andrew Roth, 8 bar Der, who lives there. Mir. Roth felt mortified that his house had been designated by the woman, whom he did not know and had nev- CT seen. He had lived iR the house sixteen
 years, and no young woman had ever stayed there. MT. Roths neighbors spoke in the
 highest terms of his responsibility, while the
 captain of the Eighth precinct said that no
 person of doubtful character could live in
 Andrew Roths house, because he was most
 respectable man.
 A statement in one of the papers that Miss
 Cramer was in the habit of buying arsenic at
 the drug store of MT. Converse on Grand
 street is emphatically denied, and the em-
 ployer and clerks are quite sure they never sold her any, as they keep 8 record of such sales.
 At about o'clock last evening Coroner Bollman and Detective Reilly took carriage and went to West Haven to be present at the private investigation and the report of the medical men.
 An immense throng of people gathered on Grand street yesterday afternoon near the Cramer residence to witness the funeral. They commenced collecting about half past 8. People driving on Grand street found the road in that vicinity partially occupied by people and the sidewalks lined. Deep sympa- thy was everywhere felt for the bereaved friends.
 On Saturday morning last at about half past one o'clock, MT. Street, the bank watch man, heard beach wagon stop in Orange street nearly opposite Bowditch's. In the wagon were two men and woman They started up quickly when they saw Mir. Street and drove on to near the corner and stopped again. Mr. Lewis bank watehman, coming up, saw the party. They started up again and drove on The watchmen thought the proceeding @ strange one.
