An Old Man Accused Of Wife. Muir.
der,

LoCKPORT, N. Y. November 90
Patrick Kane, an old and respected
citizen residing on Adam street, East
Lockport, was arrested this morning on
suspicion of having murdered his wife
while drunk last night. The body ofthe
woman, who was tifty-tve years old,
was found dead at O'Clock this morn.
ing on the floor of her sleeping room
Her clothes ard the carpet were covered
with blood. Her lower lip was cut and
there were small contuSons on her head
and face. Her husband, who first dis
covered that she was dead, said that
they had been drinking whisky last
night aud she, having dyspepsia badly,
had vomited blood a great deal, but
there had been no blows struck, and
when heawoke this morning he found her
dead on the floor. The police found a
sharp stone in the yard with bloody
marks upon it, aud Kane was placed
in custody. He had lived here thirty
years and borne good reputation. The
post mortem examination held to-day
developed the fact that the woman had
not vomited blood, and the doctors state
also that there was no apparent cause OF
her death in bruises found, hut they are
very reticent about tho case. The
Coroner's jury held secret session to-
night, excluding reporters. No witnesses
were sworn aud the jury adjourned to
Wednesday evening next

station is removed above BancrOft's 3
dam. Every other measure will be
merely temporary and palliative. That
done, the Board of Health has sufficient
authority to protect the river up to the
boundary of the State from the various
forms of pollution which might be origi.
mated along its banks.
As to the flow of Crooked run, the
most effective place to get rid of it
would be for Hartmann * Fehrenbach
to carry pipe down to the Brandy ywine
river into the refuse pipe which leads
from Rockford Mills to the North Long

that Mr.. Miller's house was broker
into, and that the one who did It mad,

had been offered a. evidence, was drop

But he would not admit that Ward

shown that at the hour when the entry
was made, the prisoner was physically
unable TO commit the act.
Continuing, he said Gentlemen n d
the jury. you know what drunkenness
on Front street whisky means" when
he jury and spectators commenced tc
laugh, and he quickly corrected himsel
by saying II don't mean that you
know from personal experience, bul
possibly YOU have felt the effects of good
whisky have myself, in small
deg ree-and you can Judge from that
what Front street whisky is."
Mr.. Ward spoke for nearly an tour in

o'clock when he closed, and the Court
discharged the Jury until this morning,
ard adjourned until 10 o'clock.
1t is thought the List case will be
taken up on Friday, as 1t seems the
intention of the Attorney-General to
clear the docket of all the petty cases
before proceeding with those of greater
magnitude.
Mr.. Harrington, one Of the counsel
for the defense, has made application
to the Court for an order 10 have all the
witnesses Tor the defense paid by the
State lie made aflidavts that they all
resided in this city and were not able
to lose the time from their work, and
that the defendants were totally unable
to pay them. The Court took the paper,
and said that although i was defective
they would consider 1t and render de-
