Further Particulars of the Sophia McLeod Murder.

The appearance of the ipterior of the apartments occupied by Mrs. McLeod seemed to confirm the story told by Mrs Quinlan. Every room the second floor occupied by Mrs. McLeod and her lodgers appeared to have been ransack ed by somebody bent on plunder- ‘A toilet room, a front parlor in which the deceased slept, and a back par- Jor used by a brother, all prerented unmis- takable evidence of an etfort to loot the premises. Bureau drawers were found forced open and the covers of a writing desk broken. The contents were thrown about the floor and it was easy to surmise that the motive for the crinie was robbery.

The house in which the McLeod's lived is a neat two-story structure at 33 Brighton Street, close to the Somerville line. They occupied the second floor and the upper or mansard story. The first floor was unoc cupied.

found the lifeless body of Mrs, McLeod, in @ poel of blood, with the face down- ward. ‘ihe nigitdress which the poor

woman had put on after taking a bath was soaked with her Jife-blood. The poo! of blood on the floor showei that the vic- tim had been felled by the first blow de- livered by her asailant.

MRS. QUI\LAN’S STORY TO THE POLICE. While Dr. O’Brien was making an_ ex- amivation of the body Mrs. Quinlan sat

on the stairway crying, with her face in her hands, She at times seemed to be on the verge of hysterics, as she bemoaned her sister’s tad fate. She seemed to dread the scene in the kitchen where the mangled remains of her sister lay, and between her moans and sobs she erdeavored to en- lighten the officers as to the circumstances under which she left her sister at home only to return later and discover the murder.

She said that after doing the marketing for her sister, as was her custom on Satur- day night, she decided about nine o'clock to run over to Boston and buy a few things for her little boy. She accordingly left with the little fellow. She averred that when sheleft hersister she wasina pleasant mood, and was contemplating taking a bath before retiring for the night.

She went to Boston, where she made some purchases, and returned to Charies- town about half-past eleven. She rang the bell four or five times but failed to get an answer. She at first thought her sis ter had gone to bed, but on realizing that the regular door lock had been turned—an unusual thing—she became alarmed. Going down to her lJandlord’s house, she asked to have a key sent ap, and some time later it was brought toher by a colored man. On entering the apartments of her sister she found that the burean drawers in several rooms had been broken open, and a few minutes later the e¢vlored man told her of ber sister’s terrible death. Terrified, she took her boy and ran from the house, and meeting the patrolman she told him what had happened.

WHAT THE POLICE DISCOVERED.

The officers worked onthe theory of robbery until well into Sunday afternoon, when they discovered that # considerable quantity of jewelry, etc, hau been over- looked in the drawers which had been broken open, and this caused them to start out on another track, to doubt if, after all, robbery was the motive for the crime.

During their search of the house the police found a stove lifter made of steel, aed weighing a couple of pounds, in the kitchen. ‘This lifter was made by Archie McL-ol for his sister. There appeared to be blood stains on it, ard the officers tcok possession of it without delay. Going to the basement, a small broad-axe was found stuck in achopping block. It seem- ed to have been quite recently used, and what might be blood was discovered on the blade. An oid shovel, too, bore sus- picious dark spots, supposed to be blood; and these also were taken in charge by the officers.

The police are satisfied that Mrs. Mc- Leoi took her bath early on Saturday night, before Mrs. Quinlan had completed the marketing for the Sunday dinner. They are also satisfied that the murdered woman was seated in the rocker inthe kitchen when Mrs, Quinlan returned from Young’s market shortly before9. Itis believed that it was shortly after this that the mur- der was committed. The opinion expressed by the doctor who examined the body about midnight was in effect that life had been extinct for more than an hour, and thatthe murder was committed about 9, the time Mrs. Quinlan says she left the honse to come over to Bo tor.

The police are also sati-fied that the victim was seated in the rocker, all inteut on reading the newspaper, when her as- sailant pounced upon her. Wholly un-

awares, the officers claim, the assailant stood over the unsuspecting victim, and dealt the first blow with some blunt in- strument, which laid the victim’s head

open. ‘dae first blow was struck on the right side of the head, the weapon cutting otf the top of the left ear, and deflecting downward, or at an angle, penetrating the bace of the skall. The position of the body when found indicates that the vic tim sank unconscious after receiving the

blow, falling forward on her face. It was then the other terrible wounds were in flicted, the heartless assailant raining blow after blow upon the back of her head. THE MURDERER KNEW THE HOUSE. The officers were not slow to be-

lieve that the assailant was one thoroughly conversant with the victim as well as with They then began to look into ( Quinlan. ‘They last, she was

the house the antecedents of Mrs. found that in September fined $5.00 for an assault, and before that she had been complained of for disturbing the peace. Mrs. Quinlan’s husband, a rail- way man, is said to have separated from her on account of her bad temper, and her

weakness for liquor. lt was also found that Mrs. Quinlan, the victim, and several brothers came to Boston from Charlottetown, P. BE. Island, where their

father John McLeod was in his day a well-

known shipbuilder. The father and mother died about ten years ago. Mrs. Quinlan has been married about eleht years, has two children, one six and the

other two years of age. Since her husband left her she has continued to live with her sister Sophia, attending to the housework and otherwi-e helping in lieu of board and lodgings for herself and c’iildren. The two sistere, it is said, have been engaged in quarrels incessantly for some monthe, and often became very beligerant. Mra. Quin- lan was looked upon by the neighbors as a woman possessed of a most dangerous tem per. Mrs. Q iiulan, it was further learned, had drank considerable on Saturday, and during the evening was in a condition like ly to give afree rein to her temper aud any uofriend!y feeling she might entertain for ber sister. MRS, QUINLAN TAKEN IN CHARGE,

The police ‘decided that Mrs, Quinlan was the real “suspect,” and took her in charge. The clothing she wore on Satur- day was taken by the officers and subject ed to a careful scrutiny. On the front of the dress and extending below the knees were found which looked very much like blood. Dur ing the afternoon Mrs. Quinlan appeared very much cast down, and finally seemed on the verge of utter collapse. Her con dition was such that a doctor bad to be calied in.

Later on a younger brother of Mrs. Quinlan’s called at the station and handed the offiser in charge a lemon zer which he found in the closet, apd which he thought might have been used by the man who murdered his sister. He expressed the opinion that the assail ant of his sister got into the house through the window ofa rear room in the mansar roof story, which he reached by climbing a cast-iron spout on the adjoining He said there were foot-prints plain’y visible on the zinc roof.

Mrs. Quinlan was police court at Chariestown on Monday, and pleaded “not guilty” to the charge of murdering her sister She said that she was ready for trial, but the prosecuting attorney asked for a continuance and she was remanded to jail uotil the llth. After leaving the court- room Mra. Quinlan had an interview with one of her brothers. She was overcome with grief, and on the way to jail repeated- ly begged to be taken over to see her deal sister once more.

THE EVIDENCE AGAINST MRS. QUINLAN, The evidence against Mrs. Quinlan is purely circumstantial, and there is a feeling among some that she ig not guilty At latest ac- counts, however, there seemed toe be no other tu-pects against whom the police

were able to gather evidence strong enough to warrant the preferring of a charge.

A good deal of the story told by Mrs, Quinlan as to her movements on Saturday n ght is being verified. Her littl boy, who was with her when she went to make her purchases at the market and later into Boston, stoutly sticks to the truth of the essentials of the woman’s claims. It may largely rest on him to clear his mother of the charge against her.

It seems that the victim was married to

Brotherton M. Grant ou the 16th Feb., 1291, in Boston, butthe two have not lived together for four years. Mr. Grant

ia janitor of a building in Providence, and came on to Boston atter hearing of his wife’s murder. On Monday afternoon the body of the murdered woman was interred in Mount Hope cemetery.

A despatch to the St. John Telegraph, under date of Boston, Feb. 4, says: The police and medical examiner are said to be In possession of new evidence which will very closely involve Mrs. Quinlan in the murder of her sister. The evidence now points to a quarrel between the sisters atter both had been drinking. Evidently Mrs. Grant’s assailant, iu a maniacal fit of anger, struck the woman with her clench ed fist, then getting possession of some ob ject, continued the attack antil the deed was done, The testimony of Mre. Quinlan

that she was out of the house when the murder was committed, it is said will be met by testimony that tends to prove it

impossible for her to have been away.

NORTHUMBEBLAND RESULT. Robinson's Majority About 500

—_-———

Numbers of His Voters Away at Work in the Woods.

CuarnamM, Feb, 7.

Northumberland has spoken, and James Robinson has the honor to represent this fine country in the House of Commons. Although five hundred names were added to the hist, a relatively smaller vote was cast. Otherwise Mr. Robinson’s majority would have been eight hundred. The light vote i8 accounted for by the fact that many men were ia the woode. Whilst the result, so far as Chatham and New- castie are concerned, is not quite as good as it was at the Jast general election, it

must not be taken from thie that there is a falling off in the electoral support of the present

Government at the commercial centre of the county, which will doubtless be claim- ed by the Liberals. The real reason for this falling oft, is to be found in the following facts: First, the large number of men at present engaged in the woods, lumbering, are drawn largely from Chati am and New Castle, they beg en. aged at other times in the many mills, and in loading vessels, These men would vote in a large majority with men who employ them, as they have the same interest. Secondly, the em- ploves of the two pulp mills, have been in fluenced, to @ great extent, on behalf of Mr. Mitchell, by the tact tbat T. Allison and C. A. Bruce, have both been ardent Mitchell men. The figures stand, with A'twick to hear jfrom, which will give Mr. Robinson another hundred majority, Robertson, 1949; Mitchel’, 1547.

A CASE OF —HYPNOTISM A Sensation in Fredericton.

Frepericroyn, Feb. 7.

Professor King Regulus Bartell has been curing the people of Fredericton of all manner of diseases by hypnotism. He is now under arrest.

Harry Miles, a member of the Infantry School, went off yesterday with the pro- ceeds of a $170 cheque which be had tak- en to the bank to get cashed. It was learned that the hypnotic doctor had pro cured the team that took him away, and the allegation is that he used his peculiar influence over Miles, who is reported to have greatly changed since he became in- timate with Bartell. The case is causing quite a sensation.

Pratts Astral Kerosene Oil.

A few days ago we received a quantity of the above Oil from New York, and after giving it a thorough good trial we have no hesitation in recommending it to our cus tomers and friends. It does not smoke the chimney, and will burn bright and clear until the last drop is out of the lamp. If you want-the best satisfaction buy PRATT'’S

ASTRAL OIL from BEER & GOFF.
