New Theory Regarding the Murder
of William Guldensuppe.
TESTIMONY OF CORONER qUTHILL
He Found Deep Cut in the
Dead Mans Heart.
SAYS THAT CAUSED DEATH

NEW YORK, November Blowing to
the expectation that Mrs. Mack would go
uron the witness stand today there were
far more applicants for admission to the
court room in Long Island City. where the
trial of Martin Thorn is in progress, than
could be granted.
Among the first to arrive were John Min
ker and his wife, who is Thorn's sister.
AS soon as they had made themselves
known to the sheriff they were accommo-
dated with seats in the north gallery.
where they commanded a good view of
the entire court room.
When Thorn was brought in he was told
of the presence of his sister and brother-in-
law ill the room. The prisoner looked up
and nodded mis- head as greeting to them.
Thorn spoke to his lawyers for moment,
and smiled at something MIR. Howe said to
him.
Courtesy to the Jury.
Before any witness was called Judge
Maddox informed the jurymen that If they
wished to communicate with their fami-
lies on any subject other than the case
which they were sworn to try he would
see that they would be given opportunity
to do so.
Thorn is said to have told one of his
cellmates that his brother-in-law. Minker
had disposed of the head of Guldensuppe
by throwing it overheard from a fishing
boat off the Jersey coast. 1t is possible
that Minker will be called as witness.
The first three witnesses called this morn
ing were II. Speck A. Steuben and Alfred
Baeder, who are employed in the Murray
Hill baths. They corroborated the testi-
mony given last evening by other bath EN-
p.oyes as to the identity of the parts of
Guldensuppe's body.
Coroner TUthiH Tcstifics.
Coroner Theodore x Tuthill of New York
county was then examined. He described
the appearance of the portions of the body
which he examined at the morgue and said
the several fragments fitted each other
and fitted perfectly.
The witness said that in his examination
OF the upper portions of the body he had
found two stab wounds, one under the
right collar bone and the other between the
fifth and sixth ribs The tissues around
the wound at the collar bone were >tilled
with blood, showing that the stab wound
had been inflicted during life. The wound
between the ribs penetrated the heart.
Died of Stab Wound.
On cross-examinatioa DR.. Tuthill said 20
Mr.. Howe: The immediate cause Of death
vas stab wound in the heart
The witness said this wound was made
from the front. The wound behind the
eldVlcie would not nave caused immediate
death.
After the coroner had left the stand the
photographs so far introduced were hand
ed TO The jurymen and they scanned them
carefully.
DIR. Philip F. OHanlon, a deputy coroner
of New York. was then called.
Prior to his examination a court atten-
dant carried in a small glass jar, which
was placed in front of the witness. 1t con-
tanned a portion of Guldensuppe's body
about three inches wide and an inch thick
DR.. O'Hanlon said that he had cut away a
portion of the thigh of the dead man. lit
is now in that JAR" he said.
