OFFICER oUAcKENRUsH's STORY.

1.-THE finding of Henry Lawrence"
said Detective Ouackenbush, call
knocked to pieces in East Thirty-fifth
street, created great sensation.
When saw him ct Bellevue hospital
the doctors said he did not have one
chance in a hundred of recovering. I
never saw, in all my experience as a
policeman. a person who was so thor
oughly beaten up. Why, there was
not a square inch of his body, which
was not marked in some way, and his
face and head were about twice the
normal size.
'"The doctors said that his skull had
been fractured in the frontal region by
a blow from some blunt weapon, pre-
sumably a slungshot or club; that it
would be necessary to trephine the
frontal bone and remove the broken
pieces and splinters which, TO all ex-
ternal appearances, had penetrated
the brain. Lawrence. was, Of course,
in such a condition that he could not
tell anything about the assault. Even
il he recovered the probability was
that he would not be able to give a
connected and reliable story OF the
affair
1.-The neighborhood of East Thirty
fifth street was at that time the
stamping ground of the notorious
Brick Yard Gang, which had among
its members about as many cut
threats and thugs as could be found
in any part of the city. They had
been at work for a long time holding
up citizens in the street Although
many of them were sent away their
places seemed to be steadily filled,
and the gang did not lose its power.
Denny Brady. who afterward led the
most successful gang OF masked bur-
glars that was ever formed in this
city for pillage along the Hudson
river front between here and Al
bany. was the leader of the gang. He
was about as tough citizen as ever
went unhung.
''All the evidence in the case point
ed to robbery as the motive OF the
crime. Lawrence's watch and jewelry.
which were worth about $1,000. had
been taken and his pockets had been
turned inside --.' Tho whole annsar-

Baker had changed his name to Henry

Thirty-fifth street. I found that he

for several days to get line on his
habits. He did not go around much,
but I knew several of the friends that
he visited. He did not go out nights,
and after I had watched for week
I sent him a letter signed by one of
his friends, and asked him to meet

thought I had fixed him, sure, and to
make things look easy, I ripped off his
watch, diamond ring and pin. This
was to give the idea that the assault
was for the purpose of robbery. No
one appeared on the block and | was
safe. He scarcely breathed, and to
make sure that he would never squeal
on any one else, gave him a jab with
a knife in the left side. It was nasty
work, but felt happier when I walked
away than I had been in ten years"

Nnough to file an affidavit alleging
prejudice on the part of Rudkin
and demanding that another
Judge be sent to try the rest OF
the census cases and that Pierce
and Chehalis counties be included
in drawing the new jury panel.
Judge Rudkin yesterday order
ed 20 new jurymen to try the rest
of the cases but instructed the
marshal to take no names from
Pierce or Chehalis counties. This
aroused Coiner. His affidavit and
motion were promptly overruled
by Rudkin.
Coiner insisted that just as fair
jurors can be secured In Pierce
county as in any other county.
Rudkin ruled out Chehalis
county because Amidon and Attor-
ney Abel came from there.
Another affidavit will be filed
today and another attempt made
to get rid of Rudkfn and have
some other Judge substituted.
