A DETROIT SENSATION.
A Mysterious Murder Followed
by Libel Suits.

DETROIT, Jan. 16.-Just three years
ago the present month a girl named
Martha Whitla suddenly disappeared.
Her foster parents lived some miles in
the country, and she had been in the
habit of spending part of the time with
them and other friends in that vicinity,
and part of the time doing domestic
work for various parties in the city.
Some eight years before she had been on
Intimate terms with young man named
Hugh S. Peoples. Peoples married
another girl. Martha, however kept up
acquaintance with him and almost up
to the time of his marriage lived with
him as a member of his family. About
five years since he desired her to leave
his house, and when she did so gave her
his note for S4OO.
Nearly three months after her dis
appearance her body was taken from the
Detroit river, three miles below the
city. being bent together, her hands and
feet tied and the body enclosed in a
large cOtfee-sack, with every appearance
that she had been so imprisoned alive
and thrown into the river. Such an
awful crime naturally excited the deep
est interest, and Investigations were
pushed vigorously but unavailingly to
ascertain the authors of the hideOus
deed. The post mOrtem examination
showed that at some previous time the
girl had been mother, a new and
startling revelation to her friends.
The note for four hundred dollars was
never seen or heard of afterwards. Sew
eral months subsequent to all this two
newspapers of this city, gave details of
the crime with comments, the whole
pointing strongly towards Peoples. al
though no direct charge was made.
Peoples then commenced a libel suit
against both papers, claiming $4,000
damages. The papers then undertook
to prove that Peoples was guilty man,
and brought out some more startling
fatcs. The libel suits resulted in YER
dict of no cause of action. Peoples is
still in jail, pending steps for his
arraignment for the murder of Martha

tries, among which are two weeping
willows from the grove of BOnaparte at
81. Helena. Napoleon was a great ad
mlrer of Washington, and when the
news of his death reached France, Ma
pOleOn proclaimed to the French army
that Washington, the friend of liberty,
Is dead. Entering the mansion we
noticed the large brass knOcker on the
door, so much in contrast with the door
bells of the present times. The first
object of interest after entering the
hall is the key of the French Bastile
hung in a glass casket on the wall. 1t
was placed there by Washington and
has never been moved since. When the
Bastile was destroyed in 1889, Lafay ette
sent 1T as present to Washington who
priced 1T very much, and hung it in
the main hall so that future genera
tlOns might look upon it and contrast
the difference between Monarch and
Republicanism, 1t is large black
key, and its very appearance seems to
Indicate tyranny and oppression. When
we think of the many victims that have
been locked up by it we shudder with
horror with the thought. We passed
through the different rooms of the
mansion, each of which would furnish
a volume of historic interest. We as
cended pair of stairs and went to the
room where Washington died. The
furniture is just the same as then; the
bed on which he died is still there. Just
above this is the room i'll which Mrs.
Washington died two years later, is ele-
gantly furnished; there is one old piece
of furniture in this room, the remain
der has been replaced i'm Mahogany.
The room which Lafayette occupied
while on visit to this country, called
the blue room, is very fine, also the mu-
sic room with the SarcOphagus in it,
which was a wedding present from
Washington to his adopted daughter,
and cost $1,000. In the room devoted to
relics we saw WashingtOn's compass,
which he used in his first survey in Vir-
ginia, and his needle lock at Valley
Forge; also his sword and the black
velvet suit that he wore when he deliv-
cred his farewell address. While look
ing through this room the ringing of
the steamboat bell announced the time
for returning, and so we started again
for Washington city after spending an
instructive day sight seeing. +. VS..

Brown, the former carpenter in the
Treasury Department, who swore he
had been paid out of the Treasury for
work done on EX-SecretaTy Sherman's
house, has been interviewed regarding
the assertion made that he had broken
down on the cTOss-eXaminatiOn before
the Senate investigating committee,
and admitted that the whole story was
a lie. Brown says: "As to the state
ment that | had never before sworn to
what was first charged, that, like the
rest, is lie, without any foundation
whatever. When before the Meline
Commission l was put under oath, and
swore, as will be seen by the testimony
which will appear, / suppose, in the
Senate Committees report, to the state
ments substantially as printed, the only
difference being in unimpOTtant detail"
''Mr. Brown, have you any doubt what
ever that while at work on Mr.. Sher-
mans premises that you were paid out
of the TreasuTy?" 81 signed the pay
rolls and drew my pay just the same as
the rest of the men in the Cabinet

knowledge of any other employees work

is messenger, lie assisted me in put

Suspicious Characters

Hostctter McCiinnis is one Of tho most
suspicious men in Austin. A few days
ago he took Marshall Thompson aside,
and told him no had discovered the

During the day they stay out in the

boys, and are always huddled close to-

their eyes, as il they were afraid TO look
any body in the face. You never see
any of them alone, but always several
Of them together.
Marshall Thompson told Hostetter
McGinnis to jump in his buggy, and
they drove out TO where the supposed
burglars held their meetings. Sure
enough, there were several boys sitting
down by fence, close together, with
their hats pulled over their eyes When
the city marshal saw the burglars he al
most fell out Of the buggy. He laughed

away, possibly TO escape from the burg

asylum. They are almost entirely blind,
30 they pull their hats over their eyes
because the light hurts them, and they
keep close together for fear they will
not be able to find each other"

the affair, and when any body speaks Of
burglars in his presence he bristles up
