BARBER THORN
 IS NOW ON TRIAL

Continued From First -Page)
 Mrs. Mack told him to go upstairs and examine the rooms while she went into the yard. Guldensuppe hesftated, but finally went upstairs and passed from room to room, peering into the closets, until he, reached the ore in which Thorn was hidden. As soon as the unsuspect- ing man had opened the door Thorn shot him in the head and dragged him to the bath tub, into which he threw him. If Gotha's story be true, Thorn acknowl- edged that while Guldensuppe was yet alive the barber drew knife or razor and cut his throat The division of the body was next made, and two of the bundles were dropped overheard from a ferry boat in the East river. Another he left in the woods, having driven there in company with Mrs. Mack.
 The Head Disposed Of
 The head he incased in plaster of paris and sank it in the East river. Mrs. Mack had helped Th0rn to make up the bun dies, and it was she who purchased the wrapping material Gothas statement has been proven to be correct in many particulars save that as to the distri- button of the head. Thorns reasons for killing Guldensuppe were revenge for his having once beaten him and a desire to be free to live with Mrs. Mack.
