THE PATERSON MURDER.
The Prisoners Apparently Indifferent
Concerning Their Crime.

Concerning Their Crime.
PATERSON, N. j., Oct. 24.-Paterson
has had its full allowance Of unusual
crimes, but never before has the city been
SO stirred as it was today. when the full
details of how Jennie Bosschieter. the sew
enteen-year- girl, was done to death,
were revealed at length in this morning s
papers.
An attendant at the Jail said that the
prisoners. Walter c. McAllister, George j.
Kerr, William A. Death, and Andrew
Campbell, did not seem, any one OF them
to bear much mental strain. Kerr's wife
and Death wife, to whom he had only
been married five weeks, also called, as
did James McAllister, father of the pris-
oner, Walter c. McAllister. who appears
to have been the ringleader in the crime
and the most callous Of the quartette. His
father is man of subs tantial means and
shows a disposition to see his son through
in his horrible plight. There is money and
strong influence back of all the prisoners
and no one here doubts that the effort to
save them from the gallows will be des-
perate one.
Recorder Senior released on small
bail the cabman, Augustus Schulthorpe, in
whose ramshackle, old-fashioned two
seated carriage the girl actually died.
Schulthorpe's testimony is vitality i'm
portant should the effort to throw out the
confessions and admissions of the three
prisoners be successful. an effort that I'M
dOubtedly will be made

FOR A UNITED SOUTH AFRICA.
Butler Makes Several Speeches on
the Eve of Departure.

tne Eve OF departure.
CAPE TOWN, Oct. 24.-The town council
entertained General Butler at luncheon to-
day. In replying to toast in his honor,
General Butler said that when he arrived
here at the outbreak Of the war he found
the same spirit OF determination to uphold
the flag and defend its rights pervading
the colcnists as he found when he was last
here twenty years ago. There was no
doubt that if in 1873 Sir Bartle Freer had
been supported in the policy he had been
despatched from England to carry through
much misery would have been prevented
in South Africa
Fortunately Governor Sir Alfred Miner
had been supported. He was sure that the
spectacles through which South African
affairs were now looked upon By those in
power in England were considerably bet
ter than they were twenty years ago.
From that he deducted that the misery
suffered by the people OF South Africa
had not been in vain. He said South At
RIGA would be a prosperous country under
one flag.
An enormous and enthusiastic gathering
witnessed the presentation Of addresses to
General Butler this evening. In replying
General Butler said he had felt extreme
pleasure in commanding troops who had
been trained by him. He paid high trib-
ute to the devotion. loyalty, and bravery
Of the soldiers, especially mentioning the
South African Light Horse. He said that
after the war it was hoped that there would
be permanent peace. when all the people
would be alike, under one flag. all joining
in the creation of one common country
1t would be impossible. however, to secure
permanent peace unless the very best feel
ing was shown by those who had the best

NO THREAT INTENDED.
Third Article of the AnGlo-Germnn
Agreement Explained.

The State Department was informed yes
terday by Count Quadt, Charge d'Affaires
Of Germany in Washington. that the third
article of the Anglo-German agreement.
providing that the contracting parties re-
served the right to determine what action
should be pursued II any power attempted
to violate the integrity Of China, was not
intended as n threat .-ainst any nation.
This statement was made by the Charge
on the authority OF his Government. 1t
cleared the way for formal acquiescence
by this Government in the purposes and
principles set forth in the agreement be-
tween Great Britain and Germany, and an
aii:var of that character is being prepared.
The exact nature Of the American re-
Spouse to the third article has not been
declared. but it is probable that even with
the assurance that no threat against any
other nation was intended by the contract
ing parties the United States will recog-
nize that the article in question concerns
Great Britain and Germany alone and does
not call for specific endorsement by this
Government
