THIS GIRL MURDERED? at First She Was a Victim of the Slocum Disaster': 11 11 .0.°PO4....0.'.0.0.40.0.1...1. New Yet*, April 17. -That the Slocum disaster was the means of shielding it murder is the fixed belief of Mrs. K. Parfenoff, a widow, whose daughter's both- was wanted ashore in Brooklyn and buried without identification in Pot- ter's Field as a vietint of the dieaster. Mrs. Parfenoff, who lives at No. 433 West Fdrty-Sixth: street, has taken her proofs to District Atorney Jerome, ana has asked his aid in solving the mystery a 'her daughter's death. Behind the fact that the mother has waitea these long months before taking action lies a stery of braye straggle with poverty and misfortune under the most heart rending circumstances. Mr. Parfenoff, an artist ana a man of refinement, left her al- most penniless with three sons and a daughter. Only one of the boys could help toward the family support. One. was a little fellow- in the primary echool, and another. now eighteen years old, has been bedridden f.or years. Katherine was an meomplished mu:it- ch-tn. When the Pamilv troubles came she found. she could turn her ability to ae- count. She was of a splendid physique, well liked by her friends, but more than ordinarily serious. The mother says she never had any misundemeanding with her daughter. Nevertheless, Katherine left her home on March 19, 1e04, to take a position as caretaker for an invalid. She left her address with her mother, hat Mrs. Parfenoff, in her anxiety for her invalid son, who was then passing through a new crisis, forgot it. Dn. June some one broueht her the ru- mor that Katherine had left her place and had returned to "Woodhurmig. Be- tween Juue 20 and. June 30 -Mrs. Par- feaoff is certain as to the date- site saw her daughter in the street. The Slo- cum -disaster ocearred June 15. On July , - t. more than three weeks after the dis- tester of the excursion steamer, the body of a young girl was found off Pacifie - street. Brooklyn. James eforLerity, cap- tain of the tugboat, who feend tbe body, said it had not been in the water a. long tiene. The skull was fractureti mad a • greater part of the hair tout from the dead. Some small ropes appearea at - i taelted to the body. The legs were tills- ! sing. No one eame to identify -the body. The : authorities decided that the ropes were part of a. life preserver, that the skull had been fractured by tbe heat and. it was a. body of a Sloeum victim. The body was buried unidentified. in Potter's Field. Alt that was left at the Morgue was a gold brooch of rhinestones and opate. The day after the burial a newspaper published a. picture of the girl taken at ithe Morgue, but with her hair restored. Mrs. Parfenoff recognized the likeness of her daughter Katherine. At . the Morgue she identifiel the brooch beyond question. -Then I had to go to work to keep my invalid boy from starving: said the mether in explanation of her inaction. -I went to the District Attorney's a - flee. It was Saturday. There would be no one in until Monday. On :Monday 1 hail to work. Then I said: to myself I will u-ork until 1 hare the means to find - my daughter's murderer. -What I want to imout above all is the address of the invalid Whom Kather- ine cared for dining April, May and part of June. That may give some elue. Kath- erine never had any men admirers. She was of eoeial disposition, but cared noth- ing rear the other sex. She was always a good gui, of splendid figure, bealthy en Ievery sense. 'I have told all I know to Mr. Jerome, I have some suspicions, but ; must not , tell them, except to him, because I have I no proofs.". - The District Attorney has promised to take the ease up and has asked Mrs. 1 Papfenoff to call at his office again on Saturday. There were many things at tbe time of the finding of the body that disproved the theory of ifs being in the water twenty-four daym A physician who ex- amined it. at the time ealkd attention to the fact that the legs-hada:tot dropped off through decomposition, but had ap- parently been cut eiear from the bone as it they had been severed by a steam- er paddle or propeller. Captain Rooney, then at the Amity street station, Brook- lyn, said he believed the woman luta been murdered, her body eat up in South Dreoklyn, rind then thrown into the water. -• lemenfee ty tr,x- entemetteme it.5 ether . hommatareete.

Duke of Bedford to Preserve the An- cient Stock. New York, April 17. -The Herald pub - tithes the following cable, from louden: The Duke of Bedford has created great satisfaction among agriculturistn and particularly those who take interest in the preservation of old types of imitish cattle, by ptuebasing the famous Chart. ley herd of wild cattle in Staffordshire, which bees back to the time of Henry when some of the wild cattle roam- ing in the forest of Nedward were dnven into Chartley Castle Park. The fate of the herd bas been a. matter of uncertainty for a considerable time, as it lute been feared it was dying out. The number of the herd has varied con- siderably in tne last hundred years. In the early part of last century it was composed of nearly seventy cattle. In 1851 the number was forty-eight, and twenty-six years later had fallen to twenty. Between 1884 and 1895 an increase- to forty-three took place, but in 1902 tub- erculosis broke out among the herd, and nt the present. time, the cattle number fewer than a dozen. The introduction of fresh blood is considered necessary, and to save the herd from extinction by this means is the Duke of Bedford's aim. Three other herd e a wild cattle are known to exist in the 'United Kingdom, the Chillingham herd, belonging to the Earl of Tankerville; the Hemilton herd belonging to the Duke of Hamilton, anti the Vitynol berd, in Wales.
