NACK TELLS HOW GULDENSUPPE DIED Thorne’s Accomplice' Goes on the Stand in Court. THE BARBER USED A PISTOL Woman Describes How the Dead Man Was Lured to the Cottage. EER STORY ONE OF GREAT INTEREST Juror Larsen Stricken With Appendi citis and a New J ary Will Have To Be Impaneled. New York, November 10.—There was an extraordinary turn of affairs today in the Thorne murder triitl at Long Island City. Mrs. Augusta Nack, who was indicted together with her erstwhile paramour, Mar tin Thorne, lor the murder of her former lover, William Guldensuppe, for whom she deserted her legal husband, appeared in the role of a state's witness against Thorne, to the consternation of the latter’s law j ers. For several weeks rumors have been cur ia nt that both Thorne and Mrs. Naek were striving lo gain a remiss on of a probable capital sentence by giving sufficient infor mation to the representatives of the people for the convict on of the other. Despite these rumors, the legal representatives of the man and woman have strenuously de nied that either of the prisoners was in clined to turn informer. Thorm’ was not told of the confession until brought into court this morning. When he heard of it he showed evidences ot nervousness for the first time since his arrest. He soon regained his composure, how ever. and while he leaned forward and spoke to his lawyer, Mrs. Nack entered tne courtroom accompanied by her lawyer and a deputy sheriff. The woman passed < lose to Thorne on her way to the district attorney's table. But while he carefully kept track of her every movement, she uvo ded looking at him. For two hours and forty minutes Mrs. Nack remained on the witness stand, the cynosure of all eyes, while she told the terrible story of how she lured Guldensuppe to his death, and in telling the tale she knew full well she was bringing her para mour to tlie electric chair. Frequently the r eyes met, but the woman was not equal to the occasion, and she always had to turn away from Thorne’s steadfast gaze. When asked why she had confessed, she replied that she wished to clear her <-on : -ience and then burol into tears. But when Lawyer Howe began ids cross-exam ination he handled her unsparingly and made her own up to such acts of premedi tation that the majority of those who heard her adnrssions said that she was the great- <st culprit, and many of those who had previou: ly evinced a decided antipathy to •f tn.rne sw-rved around and pitied hint. Mrs. Naek told of her relations wit'n Guldensuppe. They lived tog. t'.ier at -Ilia Ninth avenue and here the murdered man was known as her husband. Sh. des rib’d Thorne's coming tie re to board and of h.s light with Guldeiisupp'. The witness told if Th. rne’s threats to kill Guldensupp. and detailed 111,, renting of the VV.

Martin Thorn-? then came running down, and when he met m.- lie said: " 'l've shot him: ho Is dead.’ "lie was v. >y ■■'. if.-d and I was half dead.” said the self-confessed murderess, br.-athl, ssly. "What did you do then?” asked Judge W-lier. "He ask.il me to go homo and come back at 5 o'clock. When I ■ ime back that ev-ning Thorne had everything packed in bundles. He handed me a bundle which he said contained Guld, nsuppe's cloth'-s, and he took another bundle which was wrap p,l up in a gray-colored paper. He su'd tli it it was Guld.-nsupp-'s h<-.i\l and that i: was done up in phister of purls. He took the trolley car and went over to N w Yerk on a ferry boat." In relating what had been done with the various parts of Guld,-nsuppe's. corpse, M , Naek said that when she went back to the cottage at 5 o’clock Thorne had everything tied up in parcels, some of them in the oil cloth that she had purchased in Long Island City. When they were ready to Irtivi- the cottage sh-- took om- parol and Thorne another. Hers contained Guld-n --?::pp,-'s clothing and In Thorne's parcel was the dead man's head, which he had incased In plaster paris in the washtub of tie- outage. They went directly to a ferty which one she did not know and she went to th'- front of the boat and Thorne si.iid on the rear. on after the >< it was in mi 1-sin am Thorne rejoined her and said that he had thrown the head overboard Oil reaching N<\.

Louisville. Ky„ November 12-James R.

Th s very decided change in the corps of general officers of the Knights of Labor will cause cons derabie astonishment In labor circles throughout the eountiy. S.tve to those who wore on the "inside. so to speak, for the past three months there was absolutely nothing of this known.

Editor Constitution—The subject which is now most prominent in the minds of the southern people is the price of cotton. It Is a lamentable fact that th.- prosperity of this section is dependent upon the cot ton planter securing a fair price for his cotton; otherwise every other interest is adversely affected, and 5-cent cotton means depression to all commercial affairs and poverty to a large majority of people. His to the interest of the cotton manufacturers throughout the world to buy their cotton at the lowest possible price—at -1 cents, if they can—and what do they care if it re sults in the labor of the southern people going for nothing? Unfortunately for the cotton growers, a system exists which compels them to accept twhatev.-r may be offered for their product, simp.y because they owe the money for advances, and it must be paid. With an estimated crop of 10,000,C00 bales, it is assumed that at least 5,000,000 bales will be sold for about 5 cents, which means depression and stagnation, and should the remainder of the crop be forced down to •1 cents, it means actual want and suffering to many. Combinations for the promo tion of many of tlie largest Interests in the country now exist, such as sugar, oil, tobacco and many others. Some of these combinations are necessary and commenda ble, and should be encouraged, but grin.i ing monopolies result in extortion, and should be stamped out. Now, shall we n-i the other S.IHW.UUO bales of cotton go out of the country lo enrich foreigners and impoverish tlie soutb. ro people, or shall we demand 7 cents for it and store it in Hie warehouses until that price is paid? Tn? world will r< quit', this cotton for ns actual wants, and should the produe r, by conibinatior demand the warehousemen to hold lor a basis of 8 cents al the ports, no power on eartii could keep the gold of England, France and Europe from coming to the soutli for cotton. There are enough owners of cotton who are able to hold at least 3,000,600 bales until they obtain at. least 7 c. nts for It, and this would mean $30,000,- 000 for these growers. At,- th ■ cotton producers forever to pay tribute to other combinations, and do nothing to advance their own interests? But tlie American manufacturers of cot ton goods may say that such a price for raw cotton in tlie face of the limited de mand for tile manufactured goods, would prevent them from running their mills ex cept at a loss. The only way to obviate this would be to form a combination among the manufacturers, esta 1.-.!siisiig prices for their goods which would af ford a fair compensation for their labor and reasonable profit for their goods. Three million bales held In bonded Warehouses would be certain to advance the price to reasonable figures, and ad vances could be mad - on the warehouse receipts, if necessary, moreover, a ware house receipt for 10') bales of cotton would be as sat'-- as a bank account. la regard to the next crop: Factors will not advance mor.- than oii'.-h.-'lf of what they advanced this year, and the class of farmers who depend upon obtain ing ailwmci s on ,-otton will lie compelled to forego that pleasure anil raise bug and hominy: so the Liverpool and New ’ York operators will have to base th'-ir calcula tions on a 7.oiic,i'iio crop for next. year. A cotton combination among actual growers and holders may be all visionary and en tirely imtiracticable. but one thing we know and experience every day, that is low prices and commercial depr.-ssion, therefore, a southern cotton association coni. l do no harm bv making tlie , xp'>ri ment. _ T. SKELTON JONES. Aiacon, Ga., November 9, ISU7. Cotton and Money. Editor Oonstitut ion—Th.-r* is. a. mistaken id, a with many that the present 'irlc* .-f cotton at 5 cents is a resumption of ante bellum conditions, and that Ils > otintry will have to be content therewith. That inasmuch as our fathers w. re subje.-t.-.l to such low and ruinous prie. s, we must be satisfied with 4 and 5 cent cotton nneom- i р. and that all will be well if th • ■ p< opl. will be eont,-nted, have confidence, i live economically, and keep out of debt. Now If all this w.is true; if the southern farmer before Hu- war received only 4 and 5 cents for his cotton, and was contented, happy and prosperous, then we their de reendant; might do likewise, and be just ly rebuked for growling; but such is aot true, and our people can har lly be bl-im. d ; for crying out at such a calamity. Wh it I are tlie facts as to the history of eott. :t i and prices? It will doubll.?ss surprise m.-.’iy : to hear that the average price in New York | item 1791 to 1890 was cents p'-r pour 1.
