In his own hotel apartment, when
he drew OF his gloves, Stanton was
puzzled to find his right fingers slight
ly stained with crimson. Slowly mem
DRY brought back the fact, unnoticed
at the time, that Jessica's bracelet
had been warm and damp to the touch
when he picked it up. 1t had cut her
arm, then, in falling, he deduced. And
she had not spoken Of the hurt or
cried out! Stanton laughed in ap-
proving admiration, she had her broth

Only he wished that her eyes were
not so exactly like Floyd's; it con-
fused him.

II that DR.. Wilson did not vote at all.
Understand me, the newspapers mace
those charges and l know nothing on

Jersey it was generally believed that
DR.. Wilson and Mr.. Bryan were politl-

The ex-senator said he read what was

It was reported yesterday that en-
other letter, written by Grover Cleie-
land to Dean West, of Princeton. III
which DR.. Wilson was severely criticised
was also to be made public shortly.
From an authoritative source 1t was
learned Yesterday that no such letter
had been written to Dean West. II was
NOT denied. however, that there was such
a letter in the hands of former trustee
of Princeton, to whom it had been seht

FATAL HARMON LETTER NOW
Plan Revealed to Kill Ohio Man 8
White House Ambition.
[From The TrIbune Bureau.

Washington, Jan. democratic states
men engaged in the pleasing pastime oi
| trying to kill one another off have now res
urrected a letter written by Judson Har-
mon now Governor Of Ohio, back In 1873
which they hope will prove sufficient to Kill
off that aspirant for Presidential honors
II appears that in 1878 Mr. Harmon was
secretary OF the Peoples party, while VIII
lam Allen, better known as Rising Sun
Allen" was Democratic candidate for Gov
ernor Of Ohio Mr. Harmon opposed Mr..
Allen and the Democratic party as whole
and wrote a letter in which he declared
that the time had come 10 ''relegate the
Democratic party to the scrap heap that
IL had outlived its usefulness, and much
more to the same effect.
This letter has in some mysterious way
turned up In Washington and is being
shown to members OF the Democratic Ma
tional Committee this evening by those op-
posed 10 the candidacy Of Governor Har-
mon. Mr. CARRIER, the national committee
man from Ohio, admits that he has seen
the letter and knows where II now Is. but
will not discuss II or its effect
The anti-Harmon men contend that the
letter win. when made public at the proper
time, serve TO kill any chances which the
Governor ,of Ohio may have had 10 gain
the nomination. The Harmonites contend,
however, that IL Will have no effect what
ever. as IL Ia merely matter OF ancient
history. II appears further that the letter
contained some scheme by which, by the
use OF split tickets. Democratic defeat was
to be accomplished through the deception
Of voters.
Although several members Of the Ma
tional Committee have seen the letter, all
who have done so decline to reveal its
contents beyond what is here told. and
there is distinct effort TO hold back all
knowledge of it's existence until such time
which may be regarded as peculiarly
psychological shall arrive.

lies wholly with the court 10 accept or
reject the expected plea at the sugges-
tion Of the District Attorney, and the
decision is awaited with much interest.
II the plea of guilty is accepted sem
R'icheson may be remanded to Jail to
await sentence later: or both court and
District Attorney may refuse to accept
the change Of plea and may send the
prisoner oack to Jail to await trial a
week from tomorrow.
In that case a regular jury Will pe
drawn from the three hundred names ot
the panel, and after the box is full and
the District Attorney makes a BRIEF
opening the confession Will he read.
Whether any more evidence will be pro-
duced does not as yet appear, but In the
ordinary course OF events the jury would
then be asked 10 render a verdict OF
murder In the first degree. after which
Richeson would be sentenced TO death
Such procedure would fulfil the pre-
diction OF the District Attorney that
Richeson would surely be tried on Jan
uary IL. II has been pointed out. how
ever. that a case well known in Massa-
chusetts legal annals permitted the ac-
ceptance OF a confession as plea of
guilty without the assistance of jury.
Richeson learned to-day from the
papers that his confession was known
throughout the land. but while he read
the various accounts he made no com
rrcnt on th.m. He passed quiet day,
for even his own counsel did not visit
him. While the confession was known
to-day to every member Of the lmmanuel
Baptist Church. In Cambridge, over
which he was presiding as pastor when
arrested. It received no mention in any OF
the services. Mr.. Richeson's resignation
as pastor was accepted several weeks
ago, although his statement that he was
then strong I'm the thought Of inno-
cence" caused many Of his stanchest
supporters at that time to vote against
acceptance.
The temptations Of life and the lessons
TO be learned from the Richeson case
we're referred TO in a number OF Boston
pulpits to-day.
In discussing the case tonight Mr..
Lee expressed great relief at the turn
OF affairs brought about by the conies-
sion. He said that the defence could not
have gone through trial with the least
hope of success. He added that they
had actually no defence and had not Sc
cured a single witness whose testimony
would have withstood the scrutiny of
the District Attorney.
Mr. Lee made it apparent that counsel
for the prisoner would probably go 10
the Governor for commutation Of SEN
tcncc on the ground that Richeson was
not mentally responsible for his act.

knocking at the door had met with no
response. She had been sick on Satur-
day and mad not tried to see her father
and mother, but yesterday afternoon she
had gone once more. and had peeh
frightened by the police guard at the
door.
In the mean time the police had thus
traced the history of the Futtermans;
Thirty years ago Aaron Futterman,
who now has a brass working shop at
125th street and First avenue, came TO
this country. and ten years later he was
able to send to Russia for his father
and mother. Aaron became prosper
Gus manufacturers, while his father
opened little poultry shop on the lower
East Side, and he, too prospered.
Only Etka remained In Russia. Shs
had been married there, but her mar
ried life was unhappy, and after fe"
years she obtained divorce at hleN'
That was fourteen years ago, ana soon
after the divorce she Joined her tatner
and mother I'm this country. Aaron was
then married and living far up to"aru
The Bronx. but the old folks clung 10
the lower East Side, where they had
first settled, and Etka lived with them
All went well up to eight years ago,
when the old folks moved their store 10
No. 249 Monroe street. At that time
Etka first began to show the effects OF
the years Of brooding over her troubles
I'm Russia. She refused to live longer
with her father and mother, but found
a home for herself, first in one place
and then In another, and never long at
Cne address. Often her family would
not know for months at a time where
Etka lived, though she was always
frequent visitor TO her parents.
And though she kept up her friendship
and her intimacy with her parents, she
auarrelled with her brother and had not
spoken 10 him in several years. Her par
ents also sometimes came In for violent
attacks. Mrs. Rosie Netshek, who lives
at No. 24T Monroe street end was Mrs.
Futterman's most intimate friend, says
that Etka would sometimes attack her
mother furiously and throw knives at
her. She says that Mrs. Futtermans
face often bore wounds OF Etka's max
Ing.
Isaac Futterman was eighty years old
last summer. and his wife was seventy
two. The poultry business was prosper
Gus, but Aaron persuaded them that
they had made morey enough and 1t
was time for them to rest. and four
months ago they sold the business and
moved to a new home at No. 1Ol Nor
folk street.
The money brought by the sale Of the
business was put in the bank in Aaron's
name, and every month lie deposited
500 In the bank Of NJ. & L. Jarmulow
sky, ut No. 165 East Broadway. to the
credit OF his father. The old man liked
10 help his neighbors, and most of the
money went in that way. A few weeks
ago Aaron gave his father $500 in cash
in addition to the deposits in the bank
Etka had depended on her father and
mother ever since she came TO this coun-
try. but when the poultry business was
sold Aaron put $500 for her in the State
Bank, IN Grand street. and gave the
handbook 10 her mother 10 keep She

Nearly every day she went to the syna-
goguc with Mrs. Netshek. and when the
Futtarmans moved to Norfolk street Mrs.
Netshek changed her synagogue to go

morning she telephoned to Aaron to ask
him II his mother was visiting him or IL

When Aaron received the message
from Mrs. Netshek he hurried down
from The Bronx to the Norfolk street

Both of the old people were found
dead, and the evidences we're that they
had been dead for several days Isaac
was sitting on a couch in his under

eye of each had been gouged out and
the body of each had been cruelty md-

The doors and windows were locked

account book that told how the money
had been spent Save for the dead not
