Wife of Chief Criminal.

Statements as to the facts in the case
were at great variance. GOold himself
confessed that he committed the murder
and that his wife had nothing to do
with it The police did not put much
faith in his story, and as the case was
presented to the court his wife was shown
to be the real instigatOr.
The evidence went to show that Emma
Levin, who was possessed of cOnsidera-
BILE iewelry and some money, had been in
vited to visit the Goods, who were in
needy circumstances. There she was
killed and later n quantity of her jewelry
was found in the possession of Goold and
his wife. Her body was dismembered and
packed In q trunk and Valise which the
murderers were trying to dispose of when
the crime was discovered
