Taken to His old Home to be Buried.
 The Town Draped in Black.
 NEW YORK, April 21.-The body of Roscoe Conklng was borne forth yesterday upon that journey from which there is no return. Men came from far and near to bare the head above his coffin. The rain, cold and treach- erous, pelted his casket, but it could not keep back the host of men and women who swarmed to. the house of this faithful steward, this unswerving public servant, this honest man. No wild grief marked the funeral ser vices, but many silent tear of tribute hal lowed them. He has died before his time, it is true, but in the fullness of his fame, ripe in his garnished sheaf of this worlds honors.
 The laurel crown which mantled his dark casket had not been placed there by ill-judg- ing hands It was his by rights. The busy men who had laid aside their business for a while to follow his dust from house to church and from church to the waiting railroad train, which was to bear it up the familiar valleys to the old home in Utica, brought re- spectful sorrow with them, but with it was linked an admiration and sense of pride for this great son of the Empire state which even death could not snatch away.
 The special train was swung on to the out ward bound track at the Grand Central depot.
 A Saratoga combination drawing room car was set apart for the body and it's floral accompaniments, with the polished cedar box, brazen plated and air tight, in which the casket will be placed. Next to it was President Depew's private car, for the use of the widow and relatives after that came tho parlor cars Engadine and Serena, for the oc- cupancy of the Utica contingent and the congressional and state senate representa- tions. All of the family went north except Col. Frederick Conkling, whose health would not permit, and Mrs. Joseph Coleman. It was after noon before the train pulled out, after long delay, though President Depew offered to send it forth at any time

HE SAYS SHE IS A .MURDEREss.

Some Very Startling Testimony in .
 Massachusetts Damage Suit.
 BOSTON, April 21.-An unexpected feature of the hearing of suit for $5,OOO damages, brought by woman named Mary Boutelle against the city of Cambridge, was the testi- mony of a man who swore the plaintiff was a convicted murderess and fugitive from jus tice. This man was Francisco Raposo, a Cambridge barber, who declared on the wit ness stand that the plaintiffs real name was Maria da Luz Baptista, and that six years ago she was convicted of having caused the death by poisoning, at Ponta del Gado, an island of the Azores, of her husband, Dr.. Augusta da Baptista.
 The couple lived there in luxury up to 1882, Raposo said, when the doctor suddenly died, and the wife was sentenced to banish- ment for life and imprisonment at St. Michaeps, on the west coast of Africa. Raposo was on guard there at the time, and was bribed to aid the woman ir her escape Raposo escaping with her. They landed to gether in this country, and have lived ever since in Cambridge. This evidence was ad. duced to show the plaintiffs bad record.
