JEWS IMPLICATED.
About the same time it was observed
that only Jews had offered money to the
poor mother, and only Jews sent informa-
ton from different parts about the child
having been seen. A sort of frenzy
seemed to come upon the people, which
reached its height when several wood
choppers confessed they had been hired
by Jew to dress the body N clothes he
gave them and to tie it to the raft in the
hope of making it appear that the child
had fallen into the river. About the same
| time son of one of the officials in the
synagogue confessed that he saw his
father and two Jew butchers take the
! girl into the synagogue and cut her throat
on the evening she disappeared; but Ae
did not know why they did it or where
the body was. The father, son and two
butchers are in prison, but the latter

The idea seems to be gaining ground

kind. The child, as l have already stated,
was nearly deformed. Her parents are of
the most miserable and poor. The gov

every detail that the case develops. A
society of Jews have engaged three of the
ablest criminal lawers in Pesth to come
and take charge of their side in the case.
EXCITEMENT INCREASING.
Within the last fifteen days many arti
Giles have been published calling upon the
public to reflect well what it does. The
speeches in the Diet say it is better to let
ninety-nine guilty ones go free than to
punish one innocent person. That if it
| is found to be true that the child was
sacrificed all Hungary will rise up, and
| there will be such slaughter of Jews as
was never before seen on the face of the
earth. This is all the more serious be-
cause Jews are flocking in by hundreds,
| flying from persecution in Russia, so they
are double the number they usually are.
The fact of their spen1in such sums on
