HE DOESN'T CONFESS.
The Boy Krulisoh Still Maintains
His Innooonoo.
Bronglt Up In Court 01 a Writ of
Habeas Corpus,
Old Ho Uavo an Accompllco Who Did
tho Deed?
The wolght of evidence possessed by the
police indicates the errand boy, Willie
Eurlisch, as being the murderer of Drug
Clerk Quentber Wechsung in Otto Doepfner's
pharmaoy, at 037 Third avenue, last Thurs
day morning.
Still there aro many who, after seeing the
lad, cannot bring themselves to believe him
capable of such a deed.
He is not a vicious-looking chap. Ob the
contrary hie personal appearance is strongly
in bis favor.
Ho is o great liar without donbt, but many
boys of his age and station in life are just as
bad as far as that goes.
Hardware Morchant Freundllco Rays that
be cannot be mistaken. He is sure that
Kurluch is the boy who purchased tbe
hatchet from him on Wednesday loot, the day
before Wechsung was butchered. His friend
Schlessinger, who waa in the store when the
trade waa made, is equally positive that
Eurlisch was the buyer.
The boy stubbornly insists that they aro
mistaken.
Even thoso who do not beliovo that he mur
dered the clerk think that he u lying when
he denies buying the hatchet.
Their theory T that he bought it for some
man or woman, and that the person bo
bought it for perpetrated the horrible butch-
The murderer, they think, has some power,
ful hold on the boy either gratitude or fear,
, whloh keeps him silent under the present cir
cumstances.
In view of tbe discovery made by an Even
two Would reporter that Wechsung feared
violence at the hands of an outraged hus
band, whose wife he had on intrigue with,
many people believe that the husband is the
murderer, and that the boy was his accom
plice. Others again think that it was the woman.
and that the boy helped her commit the
'crime. Those holding the latter theory aay
that the boy may have fallen in love with the
woman, and if so, was only too ready to aid
her in any way. I
Krulisch waa seen in tbe Tombs by an
Ensntho Wobxd reporter this morning, who I
asked him jocosely :
"Are vpu ready to confess yot.WilUe?"
He pressed a very serious-looking young
face against tho iron-barred door of his cell,
and responded i
" I have nothing to confess, I did not buy
tbe hatchet I did not murdwr Wechsung.
Ho and I were always the bost of friends. "
He declared that he had never seen any
woman calling on Wechsung at the drug
store, but the dead clerk did receive many
letters, which he burned as soon ae he had
read them.
' When did you see him have a letter last?"
asked the reporter.
"Tuesdsy before he was killed. Ho got
one in the first mail that morning and read it
through quick. Then he toro if roughly up
and threw the fragments in tho stove, "
' Did yon over mail any letter for him to
people in this country ?"
"No. All the letters I mailed wero ad.
dressed to Germany, He used to mall some
letters himself, though, and those, I guest,
were for some one here. "
' ' What makes you think so ?"
" Because he would generally write a letter
after receiving one of those he used to burn
and then he would go out and mail it him
self," he conoluded.
Copt. Warts said this morning that his men
were still at work on the case, but nothing
new had transpired. ,
He refused to tell what progress they had
made in tbe search for the blond o woman,
Wochsung's fair friend.
Krulisoh was arraigned in Supremo Court,
unamDers, oetoro iuage ijawrence on tne
writ of habeas corpus procured by Lawyer
Purdy.
Mr. Purdy asked for his clients discharge
on the ground that thero was no proof to
substantiate the charge of murder against
him. Mr. Dos Passos. of tho District-Attorney's
office opposed the motion, and Judge
Lawrence dismissed It. Krulisch was sent
back to the Tomb.

CnaiiLxsTow, S. O., March 18.-rThe Inol
dents of tho murder of Capt. Dawson are
gradually creeping out, and all point to ono
of tho most cruel, cold-blooded and heartless
affairs that disgrace the annals of crime.
Thestatemont of the murderer is pub
lished this morning. In it he admits that
his victim called upon him to remonstrate
against bis interference with hi (Capt
Dawson's) governess.
The murderer says that after a conversa
tion Capt. Dnwaon struck him a with cano, and
that ho, after being struok down, proceeded
to his dosk, secured a pistol and shot Daw
son. He admits that be did not kill hi vic
tim at once, but says that the Captain lived
for nearly an hour, during which time the
murderer was making up his mind what
to do.
After tbe breath had left the body, tbe
murderer went to a corner grocery and pur
chased a spado.
In the mean tune his wife and children bad
left the house.
Keturnlnc. he bolted all tho windows and
knocking ont several planks in tbe partition
that divided his office from the premises,
made an attempt to dig a grave.
This, however, he was forced to abandon,
owing to the nature of tbe ground, which in
that locality ii ' made soil " or marsh land,
filled op with broken bricks and other do.
Finding it impossible to conceal the body
the murderer next directed bis attention to
straightening the furniture in bis office.
Everything was arranged in the proper
shape, the body of the slain man was laid out
an if for burial and the murderer then lock
ing the door mounted his buggy, drove to tbe
police station and surrendered himself.
rHTUFSEN'S CONFESSION.
..
IlB THOUaUT THAT LAWIER WICKES VAB
ON HIS SIDE OP TUB FENCE.
The evidence which is to fasten the crime
of perjury upon diaries I'hUlpaen, who ac
knowledged that he swore falsely in tho new
West Washington Market investigation, was
presented before the Grand Jury this morn
ing. Whilo these steps looking to Fbilipsen's
requisition from the Governor of Pennsyl
vania are being takon here, that individual is
making strenuous efforts to escape from the
custody of the police officials of Philadel
phia, who have him in charge.
He has secured a writ of habeas corpus, re
turnable Friday, and will b represented by
the very best criminal lawyer of the Quaker
City.
All of this fight which is being made to
prevent the return of Fhitipsen to New York
is regarded suspiciously by the Commission
ers of Accounts, who think they seo in it all
something moro than the effort of a guilty
perjurer trying to escape punlahmont
Pliilipsen, it is to be remembered, can put
tbe personal liberty of several persons in
jeapardy should ho return and testify. It is
suggested by tho Commi&sioners that somo
interested parties mar be furnishing the
slnows of war for Phillpsen in this fight to
remain without the jurisdiction of the courts
of this Btate.
With reference to the character of the evi
dence which was adduced yesterday, being
Assistant Corporation Counsel Wlckes's rela
tion of Fhilipten's confession of bribery, the
Commissioners of Accounts say that it was
certainly not the best evidanoa. but it was
offered by the Corporation Counsel and
whlie it waa simply hearsay, there was much
in tbe circumstanoes attending and preceding
tho confesuou to make it particularly strong.
When Phillipaen was examined in the first
week of the inquiry, Mr. Wlckes posed rather
as a defender of the Comptroller and other
oulcials of the Finauce Department.
Phillpsen accordingly looked upon him as
friendly to him and to tho Finance oulcials,
and it is thought that this was the reason that
he rclttod to the Assistant Corporation Coun.
feel bis secret regarding the payment of
$2,600 or $3,000 to Chief Clerk Graham Mo.
Adam and asked his advice as to what he
should do.
The Investigation will be resumed to-morrow
morning nnd it is quite probable that
Comptroller Myers will bo tho chief witness
to bo examined.

The S. F, 0. A. Ha3 a Involution
and a Now President.
Its Founder's Nephew Compiled to
Resign.
Banker James M. Drown Elected to
Take Ilia Plaoe.
There is trouble In the Socloiy for tho Pro.
venlion of Cruelty to Animals. In fact
thero has been a regular revolution ou
a small scale, tho result of which
has been tliat young Henry Borgh,
who has boon President of the Bocioty since
the death of his undo n year ego, has Leon
forced to resign his office, and James M.
Brown, of the firm of Brown Brothers, tbe
bankers, hoe been chosen to succeed hhn.
This all took place on Monday night at a
meeting of ihe Board of Managers, but it was
kept secret until to-day.
Of tbo twenty-three members of tbe Board
thirteoa were present. They were : Elbridgo
T. Gorry. Kev. Dr. Morgan Dlx. W. O.
Sohermerhorn, Alfred Wegstaff, N. M. Bock
wltb, Charles Lanier, JaincH M. Brown,
Tarke Godwin, George G. Haven, Horace
nuseeU, Edward A. Hammond, James Grant
NUson and George E. OaWltt, jr.
The trouble has been brewing for somo
months past, and, according to all reports,
originated in a general feeling of dissatiafao
tlon with Ihe management of the aftairs of
the Society by its young President. , ,
The by-laws gate blm absolute authority,
and it is claimed that he has abused tbli
power In many Instances, although mmo of
the members of the Board who wero seen by
the reporter would specify any particular
offense in this regard.
At auy rate they changed this troublesome
by-low at a recent meeting and Mr. Borgh,
being shorn of his power, was given tbe
alternative of acting as a mere appendage to
the Board of Managers or resigning.
His resignation was before the Board on
Monday night It was unanimously ac
canted. and to the election of Mr. Brown
there was not a dissenting vote.
It seems, however, that the ousting of Mr.
Borgh Is by no menus as agreeable to tbe
members of the Bocioty at urge as to tho
Board of Managers, and even among tho
latter there is considerable minority who
support Mr. Borgh, although they do not
seem to have buen present at the meeting in
question. ' -!,-
Mr. Bergh was found at bis house, 420
Fifth avenue, this morning by an Evuuno
Woeld reporter.
He seemed to feel keenly the slight which
bad been put upon him by the Board of
Managers, and allowed considerable emotion
during his conversation with the reporter.
' ' I bave bad opposition in the Board of
Managers for some time past, ' he said, "and
it grew so strong that I finally resolved to re
sign rather than Insist upon tbe carrying out
of ray policy.
"Thero was an undestanding that nothing
should be said about tho mattor, and now the
story comes out and in suoh a way that it
places me in a very unfortunate position."
" Then you feel that this opposition to you
waa unjust 7"
" Well, I think I have been doing tbe beat
I could for the Society for the last twelve
years, and to refraining from saying anything
at tho present time I am making a great sacri
fice of my personal feelings. "
" As to the causes of tbe difficulty between
myself and the members of tbe Board, I
might say a good deal, but I regard tbe inter.
est of the Society as of far moro importance
than my personal feelings, and I feel that it
wonld hurt tbe Society if I started a dispute,
which would be almost endlcsi,"
You had ome trouble with Superinten
dent Charles H. Uawklnson, dud you not V
"Yes, I removed him from his position
some time ago, but reinstated him at the
request of the Executive Committee. "
"Do you think he hod anything to do with
forcing your resignation ?"
" That is a matter which I decline to talk
about. Mr. Hanklnson, like a great tnany
other Englishmen of his class, is very set in
his opinions, and is hard to get along
"Is there any truth in tbe statement that
friends of Messrs. August Belmont and R. 1).
Morgan, havo inspired this opposition to
you in the Board on account of tbe Society's
pro eoutions for rabbit baiting and docking
horse's tall'4."
" I hardly think thero is ; at any rate I
would not believe it unlcsi I baa stronger
evidence than mere suspir.on, Tho trouhle
ftoes a great deal deeper than that and
f my lips were not sealed by tho understand,
ing thai no ono should any anything about
what took place nt last Monday's meeting, I
would explain it fully. "
Several member of tho Board wero called
upon, but they wero all reticout with regard
to the real cause of tho trouble.
It was gathered, however, that Mr. Bergh
had given olfenso to' the older membors of
the Board by taking important action on
many occasions without consulting
them. As a result, this dissatisfac
tion took tho form of opon opposition,
and while the membors of the Society
favored Mr. Bergh, and hhoned it at a recent
meeting, when ttiey out-voted the members
of the Board of Mamagurs present in su im
porting a proposition favored by Mr. Bergh.
