New York has
had a dozen
inysteriou
crimes during
the last few
years which
have, to ulf in
tents and pur
poses,baffled the
detectives under
Insnoctor
Byrnes. The moat recent one Is that
In which Henry Wade Willies lost his
life. • It will be remembered that
Wilkes was one of a famonfe band of
international swindlers who while
operating’ in Italy betrayed
his confederates for the clemency of
i iho crown. He then returned to this
country and tried to lead an upright
life. Ills people being among the lead
ers of New York society ho tried to re
gain the prestige of other years and
failed. Then he drifted from better to
worse, until one moining not long ago,
his dead body was found in the street
not far from 1 his lodgings. His
skull was fraeturod and there were
other evidences of a most brutal crime.
The closost detective work has, how
ever, failed to develop any clew that
might load to the identity of the mur
derer. It is believed that friends of
the gang he had betrayed had a hand
in it.
Among the most notable murder
mysteries of the metropolis
is that surrounding the killing
of Ueorge L. Leslie. This crime
is Written in criminal history as
"The' Mystery of Tramps’ Rock.’*
Fourteen years ago Leslie was
found n^tfdered on “Tramps’ Rock”
just across the New York city line
in Westchester county. Leslie was
a famous bank burglar. .’ Several lead
ers of the most industrious gangs were
arrowed and it became plain to their

ambers that some one was revealing
W felrplana to the police. It Is believed
I that Leslie excited their suspicions by
I bis freedom ^om arrest However
I this may bdi*L; he was found
lying dead on "Tramps’ Rock’’ in June.
,, 1878. There were several bullet holes
in liisbody. The police were greatly
excited over this crime. It Vwas de
cided after careful investigation that
the murder must have been effected
either in Hew York or Williamsburg
and the dead body transmrted to
"Tramps' Rook" in a wa^ All
efforts of the police t<? hunt Bn the

arrested had to be

Vied:

of the crime waiting for Laijgdon. Oi

enemy. They ran toward thu lumber
yard, and almost on the very spot
where he had btcn robbed the unknown
man shot Lnngdon through the heart.
Ho has never been captured.
The block bounded by Houston
Street, First street, Chrystie street and
the' Ilowery furnished two murder
mysteries within a few weeks of each
other in the winter of 188(1. In the
first of these cases the victim was a
well known young man named Fred
Ntobo, the son of wealthy parents who
lived In Hoboken. Young Stobo was
inclined to be fast in his habits and
spent a good deal on time in the con
cert balls that flourished plentifully.
FRKO BTOJIO.
along1 the Bowery at that time. lie
usually carried money and wore valua
ble jewelry. One niglit he went into
Johnny Opp's notorious resort at No.
311 Bowery. He loft the place with a
woman after midnight. Ills dead body
was found tlio noxt morning lying at
tho foot of a flight of stairs in a tene
ment house on Houston street, a few
doors from tho Bowery. He had been
robbed, mhrdcrcd and thrown down
stairs. In vain did the police make
arrests. There was no conviction.
The l’lnkertons took the case up and
■pent thousands of dollars on it. A re
ward of $2,500 was offered, but noth
ing ever came of it. Johnny Opp’s
dive is still running at full blast.
Interest in the Stobo tragedy had
hardly begun to wane when another
crime was committed on the same
block. In this case the victim was
“Old Doe Werner,” a notorious fence,
who did business with all the petty
thieves in the city. The “Doc” was
generally believed td be wealthy. He
lived alone in miserable rooms on the
Bowery, a few doors above Houston
street. There was a constant proces
sion of “snide” crooks to his rooms.
One morning ono of these gentry
knocked, ns he had often done before,
on "Doe’s” door, but got no response.
He pushed in the door. Tho old man
whs lying dead upon tlie*floor. It was
plain, from the way in which the room
and furniture were bespattered with
blood that there must have been a ter
rible struggle between the mur
derer and his victim. The weapon
used was that deadly contrivance,
a stone tied up in a handkerchief.
This was a favorite weapon of New
York toughs in bygone days. But
when it was legally classed ns a slung
shot the thugs who were in the habit
of carrying it with them discarded it.
Nobody was ever convicted of the mur
der of Doc. Werner. Even the motive
that prompted the crime is an enigma.
The Doc. was not robbed. It is be-’
lieved that he held in his possession
the key to some crime that would pov
sibly send some one to Sing Sing or the
gallows, and that this person lulled
him to make sure the secret would be
kept. These are a few of the great
murder mysteries of the metropolis.
Some other time I will give an account
of more recent ones. .
