RETRIAL OF THORN.
Alleged Slayer of Guldensuppe
Again In Court.
SOME NEW PHASES IN THE CASE.
Judge Smith Cannot Preside on Account
of Iilness-Judee Maddox Takes His
PIace-Work OF Getting a Jury
Progresses FavorabIy.

LONG ISLAND CITY. Nov. 2s.-
Again is the trial of Martin Thorn for
the murder Of William Guldensuppe
well under way. After a series Of the
most extraordinary happenings and in
terruptions, after numerous delays from
various unexpected causes, the work of
selecting a jury for the second time has
so far progressed that the filling of the
panel is expected by tonight.
Since the trial was first called two
weeks ago, the entire complexion of the
case and the whole of the legal sur
roundings have been changed. The orig
inal jurymen. got together In an aston
ishingly short space Of time and pro-
nounccd equally satisfactory to prose-
cution and defense, after hearing much
testimony. after seeing and hearing
Mrs Mack make public confession of
completely in the crime, have been sent
back to their oyster beds and their
farms. relieved Of their onerous duties
through the sudden illness OF one OF
their number.
Judge Wilmot Smith, who presided
over the first trial, after ruling In or
out certain fine points of evidence and
passing upon many nice legal techni-
calities, thus laying down the lines on
which the extraordinary case must be
tried has been compelled to retire
through illness, and his place is now
taken by Justice Samuel p. Maddox.
William f. Howe. the chief counsel for
the defense OF Thorn, after loudly pro-
claiming that the body Of the MUIR
dered man was not and could not be
proved to be that of Guldensuppe. and
further that he would produce wit
nesses from Europe who would swear
that Guldensuppe was and is still alive.
has been obliged to make an. entire
change Of front in view of Mrs. Nack's
confession. He will now endeavor tc
prove that the woman did the actual
murder and mutilation and that Thorn
was merely a kind friend doing his ut
most to conceal the guilt of the woman
who had won his love. while Mr.
Friend, the counsel for Mrs Mack, has
handed her over to the prosecution, and
she, the admitted murderess, will be the
most important witness against Mar
tin Thorn.
Kaleidoscope changes have marked
the progress of the celebrated case
since it was first called. What is yer
in store for the sensation loving public
It is impossible to predict

MnLaurhlln Charred wlth Murder.

BOSTON, Nov. PA warrant has
been issued for the arrest of Francis
Mclaughlin, an inmate Of the City hos
pital, on the charge Of murder. Me-
Laughlin is the man who, with his wife,
was found In their tenement Monday
morning unconscious from bullet
wounds. It was at first thought that
the woman. crazed by grief at the re-
cent death OF her infant and the pros
pect that her husband, who had been
pronounced incuraby IN with con,
sumption, would have 10 leave her TO
go to a hospital. had tried TO end both
lives. Further developments proved,
however that the woman could not
have fired the shots. and it appeared
that Mclaughlin had done the deed
from similar motives to those attributed
to the WIFE Mrs. Mclaughlin died last
Tuesday morning.
