BY Their Feathers Ye Shall Know Them,

Trailed to Their Lair.

With the persistence of a Sherlock

is rapidly clearing up the mysterious
disappearance of six chickens from the
coop of Joseph McEilroy. Of Sc Hun
terdon street. With Detective Ser.
geants Koerber and Walzer, of police
headquarters, he expects to have t.oss
responsible for the disappearance Of
the fowl under arrest shortly.
Heating, who is a friend of McElrcy,
usually does very little detective work.
He heard a few days ago that Cap-
tain Carroll. of the detective bureau,
was laid up with an attack of neural
gia. and thought that perhaps the mys-
terry of the chickens stolen yesterday
might not be solved without the Hat
ter's aid. He. therefore, determined to
go over the ground himself.
Near the chicken coop Heating found
a drop of blood. He looked over the
gound carefully and found that the
trail of blood led to the street. BY fol.
lowing 1t closely he found 1t ended IN
q tenement house in Hunterdon street.
In the hallway of the house he noted
some feathers which answered very

were on the chickens when they were

absence from February 4 to the 10th,
without pay, to Fireman John A. Cur
ran, on the latter's request.
Chief Ashley recommended that the
Newark Sanitary Reduction Company,
on the Plank road, place a standpipe in
the Passaic River below mean tide and
fasten the pipe to the Plank road bridge
In case of fire the firemen could lend
aid to the owners of the plant. The
chief said a bad bridge does not permit

THINK
BODY IN RIVER
LOCKWOOD'S
at Foot Of Prospect
Street, May Have Been
Month In Water.

The body of a man. about 40 years
old, was found floating In the Passaic
River. near Ripley's lumber yard, at
the foot of Prospect street, this morn
ing, and was taken to Mullen's morgue
in Lafayette street.
The only clothing on the body was
a pair of blue overalls. From the ap-
pearance of the body it was probably
in the water more than a month.
While the police are not in a position
to state positively, they think 1t is the
body of Captain George Lockwood, who
is supposed to have lost his life while
trying to rescue a woman from the
river near the Bridge street bridges
The woman vas saved but Lockwood
was o seen again. Lockwood lived
in Boonton, and was the captain of a
canal boat.

physical test, his refiexes being normal.
His pulse, however, varied in a re-
markabie way, running in the space of
= minute from % to 102 beats and then
back again.
"Thaw said 1t was the Monk Cost
man gang that had beer employed 10
follow him." the witness went on; 'an1
be said the reason Mr. JSrome had not
acted on his complaints about White
was that the Distr1c- Attorney thought
it the result of jealousy. Tha said
he met White in 1890 and had been IN
Yited to one of his parties in the Madl :
son Square tower. He iater saw Nh:te
M front of the New York theatre with
. handsome girl, and was old she was
Miss Nesbit ard belonged 10 stanford
White Thaw said rc didn't sec how
such a girl could care for White, who
had reddish hair and hooked Ike an
ape"
The testimony as to Thaw's aoquaint-
iAnce with White was new to the case
it'Thaw also told me that Miss Nesbit,
afterwards his wife. would be thrown into
n high state of nervousness whenever she
saw Stanford White. She would shrink
and shrivel up, he declared, until he reared
for her health"
DR.. Wagner said that Thaw never spoke
Of White by name. but always referred to
him as the beast or 'the blackgnard. :
The witness spent half an hour in the de-
scription of tests of nerves and senses, all
of which, he declared, were applied to
Thaw.
Justice Bowling this afternoon announced
he would limit both prosecution and de-
Tense to three experts each.
Mrs. Catherine e. Cain, the oinem
milliner Of Boston, who overheard Harry
Thaw's proposed to Mrs. Nesbit for the
hand of her daughter in marriage, was
called to the stand. Mrs. Cain testified
that she was with the Thaws at a theatre
marty after their marriage. Stanford White
came into the theatre. When asked what
effect this had upon the defendant Mrs.
Cain said his acts impressed her as ira
fionai. At the meeting with Mrs. Nesbl'
she heard Thaw offer to settle a sum Of
money upon the mother. There was no
cross-examination.
DIR. Britton D. Evans, superintendent OF
the New Jersey State Hospital for the
Insane, at Morris Plains, who introduced
the Brain Storm" into the case last year,
then took the stand to give his testimony
as to facts as DIR. Wagner had done, both
physicians being subject to recall later
to answer a hypothetical question cover
ing all the evidence in the case.
