Jnini's l/cc , a Hack Driver , Arrcstcil
I'or a Murder Committed Six
Years Ago.
About four months ago Sheriff Perry
Heel received a communication from
New Albany , Ind. , in which It was
stated that one .J nines L. Quitui , who
was thought to bo In this city under the
name of James Lee , was wanted at New
Albany for a cold-blooded murder com
mitted tln-rc in 1830.
With the communication was a picture
of tin1 fugitive from justiqc taken a num
ber of years ago , in fact several years be
fore the murder was committed. The
sheriff took his deputy , James O'Ncil ,
into his confidence and the two worked
together on the case' tor nwhite , nnd'iiot
being successful in their search 'for the
man they took Policeman Nick CTHrieii
Into the case , at the suggestion of Deputy
Sheriff O'Nell ' , thinking that O'Hrien
would be more apt to recognise their man
by the picture.
About a month after the sheriff re
ceived the description of Quinn , City
Alarshal Uiianella also received a letter
from the authorities in Indiana Inclosing
another picture and relating the circum
stances connected with the murder.
The police force of the city were kept
in entire ignorance of the case , O'Brien
being the only one on the force who
knew anything of the matter , and all ho
know was tluit the sheriff had requested
him to arreit "Jim Lee , " who hail been
a driver of one of William Martin's hacks
for about four .yeans , whom O'Brien
know and the .sheriff did not.
On Sunday morning as Policeman
O'Brien ami a representative of the BIK :
were standing oii Broadway near Pearl
street , Lee was noticed coining along
and Ollieer O'Brien walked up to
him and escorted him to the
county jail , vhcro ho was
locked up. None of his friends , not
even his wife , were made aware of his
arrest until Sunday night about 10
o'clock. The objoct'of this secrecy was
that the sherilf wished , if possible , to
obtain from Leo Quinn a cdnfession of
the crime before permitting anv outside
influence to bo brought to bear on him.
Lee denied the crime , but finally ad
mitted that lie was the man wanted ,
after which Sheriff Heel sent for his wife ,
who was closeted with him until long
after midnight.
Lee having agreed to go with the
sheriff without requisition papers , the
arre.-t was , at the request of the sherilf ,
not made public yesterday morning , as
th < ! sheriff was afraid that Leo would become -
come angry and recede from the arrange
ment , thereby making unnecessary
trouble.
About , four years ago Quinn , under the
name of James Lee , married Aliss
Christie Alartin , sister of William Martin ,
the hack owner , for whom ho drove.
They have had no children , and several
months ago Quinn disappeared , and his
wife , not knowing his whereabouts and
remembering that ho claimed to have
formerly lived at New -Albany , Ind. ,
wrote to the ollicora there inquiring if ho
had gone back.
Answar came that they thought ho
was , ami requested her to forward his
picture. She did this , and they at once
rccog.ni/.cd Lee as the man Quinn , who
was wanted there for murder , and im
mediately notified Sheriff Keel , with the
result .is given above.
Yesterday Airs. Leo repaired to the
iail , and was legally married to her hus
band under his real name of Quinn by
Justice Schurz. and last evening accom
panied her husband and the sherilf on
their trip to Indiana.
The authorities of Now Albany say that
on August 1 , 1880 , over six years ago ,
James Lee Quinn brutally murdered
Win. Sharp , with whom ho was at work
threshing. That they had a quarrel and
sharp words while at work , and that
subsequently Quinn met Sharp in the
barn and beat him to death with a club ,
pounding his head to a jolly , and scatter
ing his brains about the barn , and that
ho then loft town , and they never heard
of him again until this summer , when
his wite wrote for information concern
ing him Since Leo has lived here he has
been recogni/.ed by the police as
a hard citiy.cn , and he has
been in a number of scrapes. Quinn
admits that ho had a qliarrel with Sharp ,
but says it was entirely confined to
wonts , and that he did not meet him
after they left the threshing machine.
Ho says that Sharp went to work in the
barn , and he believes that he fell through
a hole in the hay loft and fractured Inn
skull on an iron rod ho struck in falling.
That Sharp did not die immediately , but
lived for several dajs. Quinn says ho
remained in town for six days waiting
for Ins trial , and that then , by the advice
of his folks , ho skipped out. Ho ex
presses hlmsolt as satisfied that they can
prove nothing against him , as he says
they have no witnespos except a young
boy , a son of Air. Sharp , and that he saw
nothing except the quarrel at the ma
chine. _

The CroHs Case.
Lust winter , through the strenuous
efforts of his attorneys , Dr. Cross , who
was under sentence of death for the mur
der of Dr. A. B. AIoKaiio , of this city , was
granted a now trial. Ifo was tried and
senti'iiced in Mills county , the case hay
ing been fakon there from hero on' u
change of venue , An appeal was taken
to the supreme court , and it is said that
court stretched u point in order to reverse
the cast ) and send it back for a now trial
on the ground of errors committed by the
court. His bail wan fixed at § 20,00' ) , for
which amount lis failed to find sureties ,
consequently ho has remained in prison.
To-day his case is to bo calk-d up at
Klcnwood , but what disposition will be
made of it can not bo told. In the former

which will hereafter bo defended byj , Y.

for the state have been requested to con
sent to a continuance , but they are ready
for trial and dt'clino , so the defense will
probably make either a motion for con
tinuance , or for n change of venue.

the subject of the Salvation Army that
he imagined that a company had come to

Salvation Army has over some people.

THE BIG BRIDGE.
The Great Structure nctwocu Now
York and Rrooklyu lO.vnrnlnetl
Kvcry AVoek.
The elevated railroad structures seem
to have been , and doubtless were , built
in as solid and durable a manner as was
possible under their system , says the New
York Sun. It is , however , observable
that the repairs upon them , nccessVt itcd
by the severe wear and tear to which
they are subjected , appears to bo unceas
ing , and it is by no moans a violent sup
position that a short relaxation of the
vigilent watch and promptly applied care
entorccd by the management of the
roads might render them very perilous
highways of travel. Consideration of
tins possibility an extremely remote one ,
it is to bo hoped suggests the idea that
i t may be rather a vital question how far
a like watchfulness prevails for the pro
tection of the great East river bridge.
Superintendent Martin , in a recent con
versation on the subject said :
"A constant and more careful super
vision is maintained over every part of
the bridge , though , apart from the rail
road , which is not properly a part of the
structure , no signs of wear are apparent ,
and wo hope none will be for a hundred
years to come Every Monday morning
two expert mechanicsgoovcrtliorailroad
track from end to end , oiling the sheaves
on which the trading cable runs and ex
amining the bolts and lastenings of the
railroad If anything should got out
out of order during the. week It would be
noticed by the conductors on the cars ,
who are all the time on the look out , and
would bo immediately reported by them
at the station when they came in , where
upon a man would bo sent out at once to
rectify anything that was out of order ,
Every day the machinery which drives
the cable is thoroughly inspected in every
part , and should anything in the mean
time get out of order ft would bo re
ported promptly to Chief Engineer Hart ,
who would take instant measures for
making all perfect and secure again.
Every week there Is a carefm examla-
tion made of everything pertaining to the
structure below the line of the tops of
the cars , and once a month the four sad
dles on the top of each tower , supporting
tiie bridge cables , are scriitini/.cu. There
is never anything wrong with them , or
anything to do to them except to keep
paintcil well , and it IE not likeiy that any
thing will come to them fora century to
come. There can be no movement ot the
saddles unless on occasions of extraor
dinary great invgulaiity in the loading
ot the biiilgo. When tliose occur they
shift position so as to distribute the strain
equally over the structure , and when the
strain is removed they go back into
place , On out * occasion of the DoLong
nmenil there was an enormous pressure
on the New York span , and the saddles
moved three-eighths of an inch , but the
moment that thu weight on the bridge
was shifted over to this end. where the
conditions of support are different from
those of the new York span , they moved
back Into place.
"lu addltlou to those established occa
sions of inspection. nti'J tfic careful pro
vision maiio for coyt'iing posihlities !
meantime by moans of tliii employes at
work in the several < lopartmeuts < , who
are all matle to feel a si-nVe of responsi
bility and c.M'rclMs a constant watchful-
iH-ss , every person In any way connected
with the bridge , whenever crossing it or
upon if , is expected to be ulwavson the
lookout for ain thing that may bo wrong ,
or that may even seem lo him to be irreg
ular or questionable about the condi'ion
oi the structure , In oven the most minute
particular. Whntovor 1 discovered is in
stantly reported to inn , , ami I immedi
ately attend to it in any way the occasion
demands. Nothing gets io ? o nny whore ,
excepting about the railroad , where1 , of
course , there is constant strain and fric
tion. The nuts on the ends of the pins
that go through tiio trusses were at tirst
occasionally found loose--just started a
llttli'fiom tlieir proper condition of ab
solute tightness but nothing of that sort
has opeiired for sometime. Everyman
employed in any responsible place about
the bridge feels as if It was in his per
sonal charge , and keeps sharp watch for
its good condition and for any possible
improvement in its protection.
