A Mysterious Murder.

John Whitfield. colored, was killed on Walker Street. in the western outskirts of the city. last night. and his body was then placed upon a trestle on the Bes- semer dummy track near by. Shortly after midnight 1t was struck by pass ing dummy, but it was several hours later before that the fact was discov- cred that the murder had been com mitted. It was at first thought that the negro had gone to sleep on the track while drunk, but fifty yards north of the trestle and away from the rail- road a pool of blood was found with a
 bloody trail leading to where the body had been placed. The evident purpose of the slayer was to conceal his crime by having the body mutilated by a train. An examination showed that
 the negro had been stabbed to death.
 The affair is shrouded in mystery and the coroner Is Investigating. Albert Hatchet. colored. has been arrested in connection with the murder. He denies having any connection with the crime.
