had been brought from Canada, the home
of the accused, to testify against him, and
they wove around him a pet of such eon-
yincrng proof diet it will be barely possible
for him to escape the penitentiary. The
testimony showed that Faustre was a
music teacher in London, Ontario, and
that in 1881, while visiting Niagara Falls
with a Miss Eiehenberger and others of a
gee, party of excursionists, they were mar-
ried. ; that subsequently he had left her and
come to this countey, where lie had engaged
in his profession, using it as a means of
alluring susceptible girl's to their ruin. He
had married in Indium, and had been
divorced. Some time later he came to
Newport and aeon the affections of Miss
Minnie Knight, the daughter of a well
known merchant of that city. The marriage
was a clandestine one, and bitterly opposed
by the parents of the girl.
Mr. Knight set to work at once to find
out something about his musical son-in-law,
and soon discovered the Canadian marriage
and had Faustre arrested.
When the latter took the stand he stated
that he had made the trip to Niagara Falls
alluded to, but had gotten drunk upon the
occasion, ancl if a marriage was performed
it was while he was in the stupor of his
debauch and he did not know it.

a rumor that he and Miss Eichenberger had
been married, but did not believe it.

lady prior to the trip to the Falls ?"

SAGE AND IIIS CLERKS ALMOST KILLED
The Man Who Parried arid Dropped the
Bag Seriously Hurt.
A last night's New York despatch gives
the following later report of the attempt on
the life of Russell Sage :
Seven ambulances have gone down to the
scene of the wreck at No. 71. The firemen
are also on the ground. At 12.15 o'clock
this afternoon a small, shabbily -dressed
man, apparently about 35 years old, carry-
ing a brown leather handbag, called at
Russell Sage's office, in the floor of 71
Broadway, and asked to see Mr.
Sage. Mr. W. R. Laidlaw, Mr.
Sage's clerk, told him Mr. Sage was
busy and could not be seen. The man per-
aisted and continued to talk in a loud tone.
Mr. Sage, who was in an inner office, came
out to see what was the matter. He asked
the man what he wanted. The man said,
" I demand a private interview with you."
Sage replied that it would be impossible for
him to see the man then, but he
might possibly do so later in the day.
The man continued to demand a private
interview then and there, and Mr. Sage
ordered him to leave the office. On this
the man dropped the leather bag, and an
explosion which shook the entire block,
instantlsr'followed. Mr. Sage was thrown
across the room and stunned. Mr. Laid-
law, who had turned away and Was
standing within a few feet of the
two, was also thrown across the
office and had one leg badly lacerated.
The stranger was thrown against the
partition vvall and was most severely in-
jured of the three. There were three others
whose names could not be ascertained at the
moment, who were also injured. The in-
jured men were taken to O'Connell's drug
store, across the way where it
was found that Sage and Laid-'

then proceeded to re-examine him. In Faustre and Mise Etchenberger four days the building were shattered and the interior
of the building was badly wrecked. It is
said two at least of the occupants
of the building were torn to pieces
by the force of the explosion.
Mr. Sage, in conversation after the
explosion was quite cool and collected, and
said he considered it was a deliberate plot
to kill himself and to destroy the building.
The man with the handbag was a total
stranger to him. He insisted upon present-
ing Mr. Sage with his card, but he declined
to accept it. Mr. Sage was completely
covered with dust and his clothing was
blown into tatter.
Russell Sage is not fatally hurt, but his
hair, eyebrows and face are burned. He
said: A man who gave his name as H. D.
Wilson came to my office just now. I had

in his hand and said: If you will not give
me $1,200,000 I will blow you all to pieces.'
I know nothing further except hearing a
great explosion and falling on the floor." W.
E. Connor escaped uninjured.
At the time of the explosion there were
large crowds upon the street. The sound
was like that of the discharge of a heavy
cannon. The usual crowd was on Broad-
way and Wall, and the adjacent streets
were filled with bankers, brokers and busi-
ness men. For an instant every one shut
their eyes, and then looked for the cause of

stranger, upon whom the responsibility for
the whole affair rests is said to be Lord.
He was taken to O'COnnell's drug store in
an unconscious condition. The doctors
pronounced his case hopeless, but he was
taken to the Chamber Street Hospital.
There were in the offices when the explosion
occurred six or eight men clerks of Sage,
and a young woman employed as type-
writer. ' The latter was killed instantly.
Both legs were blown off and the lower part
of her body was fearfully gashed and mutil-
ated.
ELME DETAILS.
The story is that at 12.15 o'clock this
afternoon a small, well-dressed man, ap-
parently about 35 years old, carrying a
leather bag, called at Russell Sage's (amen
the second floor of No. 71 Broadway, and
asked to see Mr. Sage. W. B. Laidlaw, Mr
Sage's clerk, told him that Mr. Sage was
busy, and could not be seen. The man per-
sisted, and continued to talk in a loud tone.
Mr. Sage, who was in an inner 'office, came
out to see what was the matter. He asked
the man what, it was he wanted, and the
than said: " I demand a private interview
with you." Mr. Sage inquired with what
he could oblige, and the man with the
satehel replied : " We want," he said,
slowly and distinctly, " $1,200,000. We
want them right here, and now."
Mr. Sage started back, but, instantly
recovering his presence of mind, he said it
was a great deal of snoney, and that he
would hate to think about it. He knew
that he was dealing with a Mank, and was
preparieg to gain time. But the subterfuges
were in vain with this crank. He had no
time to wait and he said so.
"We °Minot wait. I told your clerk our
besiness was urgent. The money is wanted
now. Ih this satchel I have dynamite,
pounds of it. Unless you hand over the
money tip She goes."

the word the man made an angry gesture,
and, raising the satchel at arm's length,

The persons in M r. Sage'a office at the
time of the explosion were ; Mr. Sage, his,
brother-in-law, Col. Slocum, C. E. James,
of No. 7 Nassau street ; B. F. Norton, of
Far Rockaway; C. W. Osborne, of Brook-

were attorded to. The occepantf3 of
the building rushed pall mell into the
street, their faces pale with fright. Most
of them thought at first that the building
had tumbled in, and that there was to be a
repetition of the Paik piece horror. When
the explosion occurred there was a great
rush of air from below, The buildingrocked

Everywhere the walls were cracked, and,
big clumps of plaster loosened from the.

narrow escape that maily must have had

ruin and chaos. The large main office has
a small office on each side. The explosion
apparently occurred ba the main office, and
extended its force -westward toward the
larger of the smaller offices, and through it
to the offices of the elevated railroad. In

Ma. SAGE WORSE.
A telephone message at 4 o'clock from
Mr. Sage's house announced that Mr. Sage
was probably much worse hurt than was at
first supposed. It was necessary to carry
him up the stairs to his door. No one is,
admitted but the servants.
WIR) WAS TUE ran,
The scene in the wrecked office of RusselP
Sage after the explosion was one of ruin,
and chaos, furniture being wrecked, ceilings,
demolished and part of the brickwork
demolished.
In a hallway just outside the door lead-
ing to Mr. Sage's main office was found the
shockingly mangled body of a man. The
trunk and legs were in a state that wouldl
have made recognition impossible, but the
head, which the police report as having
been severed from the body, showed few
marks of the explosion. As the trunk and
legs lay in a net of rope brought by the
firemen, they looked like a bundle of ragged
old clothes and were absolutely without
human semblance. The man wore a pointed
reddish beard. The face looked like that
of a man of education.
The police from time to time brought lit—
tle clots of blood from the office and laid'
them carefully with the body. There was
blood on the wall close to the door through
which the man had apparently Artiggled.
These remains have since been recognized as.
those of the dynamiter.
What was left by the explosion of the,
madman's body was laid out for burial. The •
head was there, blackened, but neither cut
nor disfigured in any way. It was cut off
at the top of the neck, and looked for all
the world like the mask of Oman 35 or 40,
years old, with a full beard that might have
been long, but was now burned close to the
chin and neck. Then there was a leg, the
right, the left foot and hand—that was alL

divest himself of everything that might dis—
