WILLIAM WALTER PHELPS.
The Ex-Minister to Germany Dies
at His Home at Teneyck, NJ.

at bis Home at Teneyck, N. j.
New York, June lex Minis,
ter William Walter Phelps died
shorty before 2 o'clock this morn
ing at his nome at Teneyck, n. J.
He had been i'll long time, and
quite recently went South in the
hope that his condition would he
improved. He derived but little
benefit from his Southern trip,
however, and but a short time ago
was so Frustrated that his physi
clan ordered absolute quiet. Grad
ually he grew weaker, and for the
past few days his death had been
looked for at almost any moment.
His physicians paid their last visit
at 1915 last night. He died a
few hours later surrounded by his
wife and daughter and his two
sons-John J. and Sheffield.
The exact nature of Mr.. Phelps
ailment was never definitely stat
ed, but his illness was primarily
from typhoid fever, which was fol-
lowed by meningitis and other
complications. He was not natur-
ally of a robust constitution, hav-
ing inherited pulmonary troubles.
Mr.. Phelps end was calm, as
though falling into slumber. Mrs.
Phelps is Frustrated, the result of
her long watch by her husbands
bedside.
William Walter Phelps was
born in New York City in 1889.
He was graduated from Yale in
1860 and Columbia Law School in
1868. He soon became attorney
for several railroads and other cor
poratiOns.
The death Of his father in 1869
and his inheritance to q large es-
tate compelled him to withdraw
from active service and devote his
time to the management of his
property. He took up his resi-
dence at Teaneck, and in 1872 was
elected to Congress from the Fifth
New Jersey District. He at once
took in the House as debater and
an able speaker.
During the first term he was a
member of the committee sent by
the House to New Orleans to inves-
tigate the outbreak Of the White
League against the Louisiana Leg
islarure.
In 1881 President Garfield sent
Mr.. Phelps as United States Min
lister to Austria. On the change OF
administration he at once rendered
his resignation and finally retired
in August, 1882.
He was Immediately elected to
Congress again and continued to
serve through the Forty-eightb,
Forty-ninth and Fiftieth Con-
crosses.
In the Blaine Presidential cam
paign Mr.. Phelps was an active
participant, and the defeat of his
candidate was a great blow TO bin.
Mr. Harrison recognized very grace
fully Mr.. Phelps ability, and ap-
pointed him Minister to Germany,
a position which he filled with
great dignity and to the satisfac-
ton Of his countrymen, irrespec-
tive of party.
On his return from Germany,
Phelps was honored by the appoint
ment as Judge Of the Court of APP
peals, Governor Wertz appointing
him. Soon after his graduation
Phelps married Miss Ellen Shelf
field, daughter Of Joseph Sheffield
of New Haven, Conn, the founder
of the Sheffield Scientific School of
Yale College. Two children, John
Jay Sheffield and daughter, the
wife of Herr Franz Won Rottenberg,
were the issue of this marriage.
Phelps leaves fortune Of about
$10.00000U.

THE MORNING SESSION.
Willie Dnbler's Testimony WIS the Mos
Important Brought Out

Willie Dnbiers Testimony wrs tho Most
Important Brought Out
When the criminal court, Judge Jor-
dan on the bench, convened yesterday
morning at 0 o'clock for the continue.
ton Of the trial for murder, Of Louis
Briesach, the number Of spectators in
the court room was larger than at any
Of the previous days Of the trial, in the
morning hour.
At the start young Thomas Waldron,
Briesach's step-son, was cross-exauiined
by Colonel Arnett, but nothing import.
ant was brought out, and this witness
Testimony is the strongest link In the
chain that has encircled Briesach.
Willie Dubler, a ten.year.old boy,
who lives in house ad dioining the Brie.
sach place, was the next witness, and
his testimony was very strong for the
prosecution. From the yard OF his
home he saw Briesach strike his wife
with both the large club and with the
whip, exhibited in the case as evidence.
The boy Jared fairly well under the
cross.examination by Col. Arnett, get
ting mixed at but one point, where he
told OF seeing the whip used.
Mrs. Backus, a next-door neighbor oil
the Briesachs, was next examined. She
said she was not acquainted with the
Brie.achs and that Mrs. Briesach had
spoken to her for the fret time on the
morning OF the murder. Mr. Howard
asked what she had said, but to this
Colonel Arnett objected. Finally Mr..
Howard said that he only wished to
bring out the fact that Mrs. Briesach
was not intoxicated at that time, and
this the witness was allowed TO tes-
tify to.
Harry Jenkins, the next witness
called by the prosecution, testified to
being called to go into the house after
the murder, by Officer Snyder, and de-
scribed the scene there. Charles Beu.
ter, who also was In the house after the
murder, was next called. Whom he en-
tered the house the body was on the
kitchen floor and two boys were playing
marbles In the front room.

The afternoon session OF the criminal
court convened at o'clock, and the
crowd was still on the increase in point
of size, Tho first witneIs examined was
Mrs. Ritz, who lived in a part OF the
house occupied by Briesach. She heard
the cursing on the morning OF the muir
der, but did not knowthat anything SER
ions had happened until she saw q

Mrs. Louise laeger, VINO lives IN q
hou,e adjoining ,Briesach's on Fifth
street. next testified. She said anyone
in her back ward could look down into
the Briesach yard but not into the
house. On the day OF the murder Mrs.
Yaeger saw Mrs. Briesach sitting on the
stone wall in their yard and briesach
was standing near by. At this time she
snw Mrs. sly and a Mrs. DubIer looking
Mt the scene in the Briesach yard from

Inted TO Mr.. Howard. ALI she knew,
she said, was that Mrs. Briesach was

and her hair disnrranged.

Yesterday, the fourth day Of the Bris'
sach murder trial. was by far the most
exciting of the auartette. The feature
Of the day was, OF course, the examina-
ton and cross.examination, late in the
afternoon, OF the accused man, Louis
Briesach. Under the kindly guidance
OF his counsel, Colonel Arnett, he told o
story that at times looked plausible,
but when Mr.. Howard got his innings
he made the mans story look very sick.
The accused mans answers to the pros.
ecutor's questions were mostly OF an
eva.ive character, and no man, proba-
bly,, who had made up his mind on the
prisoners guilt was convinced to the
contrary after Mr.. Howard concluded
the cross-examination.
1t is thought probable now that the
case will be brought to conclusion this
afternoon or evening. unless the argu.
ment is longer than 1t ia now supposed
it will be. Perhaps night session this
evening will determine Briesach's fate.

WAsHrSoroS, D. @, Dec. 2o.-The veil
ing that has concealed the statues Of
Daniel Webster aud General John Stark
which have been placed in the extreme
north end OF statuary hall in the
national capitol as the gift OF the peo-
pie OF the state oil New Hampshire. was
quietly removed at noon to-day, aud
the public was for the frat tune per-
mitted to look upon these latest addi-
tions to the national collection OF
memorial figures.
The unveiling ceremony was as simple
as 1t was possible TO make it and con-
sisted in lifting from the marble COL
umns the shrouds Of canvas with which
they were covered. There were. how
ever. quite an assembla4e OF persons
including Governor Smith, of New
Hampshire, aud staff, in the hall when
the veil was cast aside.
When the figures were disclosed there
was sound OF applause from the New
Hampshire men. Tho face OF Webster
shows It's characteristic vigor, although
there Is a benignancy not shown in the
usual prints and busts from the great
orator. He stands erect, clad in old
time dress coat aud choker, his letthand
grasping roll OF manuscript General
Stark wears the continental uniform
and his right hand holds the hilt Of a
sheathed sword.
Governor Smith and his staff ex-
pressed the greatest satisfaction with
both statues. The senate aud house
both tooksappropriate action upon the
rece pt ton OF the works af art, but not
in the hall where the statues stood.
There we're appropriate spesches and
resolutions, but these proceedings were
conducted by eactfSbody In its own hall
OF daily meeting. The list OF speakers
in thsisenats iIcluded the two senators
from New Hampshire, Messrs. Chand-
ler aud 9allinger. who spoke impartial
ly Of the subjects OF both statues; the
two Massachusetts senators, Hoar and
Lodge, who devoted themselves to the
life and service OF Webster, and Sena.
tors Morgan, Morrill,, Davis, Cullom,
Plat, and Mitchell, Of Oregon, who also
spoke OF Webster, while Senator'S Proc.
tor and Dubois confined their remarks
to General Stark.
In the house the Stark speeches were
made by Messrs. Baker, Powers, Curtis
and Blair, and the Webster speeches by
Messrs. Blair, Everett, Grout and b.
ker. The speeches were, without ex.
ception, carefully prepared reviews OF
the lives and chara cters OF the men to
whom the day was devoted, and, while
there was no apparent effort in any In.
stance to catch the ear by flights OF
oratory, there were many passages
spoken the day which are likely to be
quoted in any future life OF the revolu.
tionary hero or that OF tho expounder
OF the constitution. The galleries were
not crowded at any time, but the at
tendance was larger than on average
days, and the attention was OF the most
respectful character. disturbed only
with the close OF the speeches by ap.
plause. Governor Smith aud his staff
occupied seats in the senate chamber
during the proceedings, and were
among the most attentive OF the
auditors.

QUEBEC, Dec. 20.-There was a solemn
service for the repose Of the soul Of the
late Sir John Thompson In St. Patricks 8

Father Roseback, Redemptorist priest

at the loss Of the deceased: ut is now
that Sir John Thompson, If he could

voice from eternity: There Is only
one true religion-that OF Christ and
the Roman Catholic church. All others
are frauds.'"
These words created decided stir in

truth, he was subject to the full penalty
for perjury.
Captain Strauss shortly afterwards
was excused for the day.

Among Producers.
CLEVELAND, O.. Dec. 20.-The Iron
Trade Review this week says:
Recent developments In iron and steel
have begotten q unanimous desire
among producers tor new year and q
new deal Statistics OF pig iron stocks
show that coke iron has been piled TO
an extent beyond expectation, and
where makers have been compelled to
stay on the market, they have parted
with their product at figure that in
some cases has meant q losa on every
ton, II books are rightly kept. The
largest producer OF southern iron has
decided To suspend sales calling for long
deliveries uutil there 10 change for the
better; but this has not prevented other
producers north aud south from giving
buyers the full benefit OF the existing
weakness. 1t is conceded BY buyers
that the prices Of the past fortnight are
too low to last, and when the moro
anxious producers are filled up with or
ders the reaction may be looked Tor.
The duration Of the present prices Tor
crude iron and steel depends on the
width OF the gap that must bc bridged
to the railroad buying looked for early
in '95. The few strong roads will
doubtless lead of as heretofore in plac.
ing orders for rails. The ability OF
other roads 10 get money for track
renewals and tho rehabilitation of roll.
ing stock put out of use for lack OF
funds to repair it, depends on the prob.
abilities Of increased earnings.
Bearing ON this question the outcome
Of the pooling bill is an important fac.
tor. There are some encouraging signs
abroad in portions Of the market that
are independent OF the railroad demand.
Structural work will call for large ship
ments OF steel in the fret quarter OF '95.
Lake ship.building is accumul lating q
total much better than was looked for.
The eastern iron and steel market has
developed more activity the past week.
In the Chicago market there has been
good inquiry in nearly all lines with q
promise that large tonnage will be
placed early in the new year.
