THE NATHAN MURDER.
what is Claimed as the True
story.


The friends of the late John Jour.
dan, ex-Superintendent of Police, are
exceedingly indignant at some of the
statements madein eX-Superintendent
Walljng's book of "Recollections.
Without charging it directly, Mr..
Walling makes the broad insinuation
that Jourdan had guilty knowledge
of the Nathan murder, and that his
death, which occurred n few months
after that fearful crime was commit
ted. was caused by mental excitement
and nervousness. He gives long ac-
count of the murder and of the subse-
ouent unsuccessful efforts to hunt
down and punish its perpetrators,
and concludes by leaving grave
doubts upon the name OF "Wash"
Nathan and by declaring that the
murder "remains the greatest mystery
of the age" This is all very extraor-
dinary to come from Superintendent
| Walling. 1t is true that the public
generally does not know WHO mur-
dered Benjamin Nathan, and | doubt
il the facts I shall relate, which have
never been in print befo Q, are known
to more than round dozen of men in
New York, but certainly supposed
that Superintendent Walling was one
of the dozen. The fact that he is moi
simply shows how zealously that
astute Detective, Inspector Byrnes
:. keeps his own counsel.
