names ana WaIte0 mo ar ana dSuSSs AHoH the danger of causing the death of others, us there was quite number who slept m the building, the destruction of property, &c. caused me at once to abandon the idea. l next thought of having suitable box made, lcaded inside so that the blood would not run out, and moving it off somewhere and hurying it. Then the delay ot all this, and the liability ot being detected.

 After wandering in the park for m hour or more, returned 10 my room and entered it as l left it, as I supposed, unobservcd. Wheecr's door was open, and he was talk ing 10 some one quite audibly. went into my room entirely undetermined, and not knowing what to do. After ] Was seated in my room waited silently ,ilI Whceler's school was out and his lights eXtinguishcd and during this suspense it occurred 10 me that might put the body in box or cask and ship it off somewhere. l little thought at this time that the box which was iD the room would answer. supposed ittoo small and to be unsafe, as it was quite open.

 Wheeler's school being out, l still heard some one in his room, and as then thought laid down on some benches. The noise did not appear exactly like q person going ,t bed. felt somewhat alarmed, but then the idea occurred to me that it might be the per. son who Wheeler had stated was going to occupy the room that then occupied, as a sleeping room as soon as gave it up, which was to be in about ten days, was temporari- ly occupying his room for this purpose.

 Relieving myself by this thought, soon lit d candle, knowing that no time Was 10 be lost 1; something must be done. This was about o'clock, should think.

 Having closed the shutters, went and ex- ho hov to Sep if conld nOf crowd the body ilto it. soon saw that there was possibility of doing so. if l could bend the legs up, and that il would answer if 1 could keep some of the canvass around the body, to absorb the blood and keep it from ru,ining out. This I was fearful of. It occurred to me, if bury, or send this body off, the clothes which he had on, would, from de- scription, discover who it might be. It be- came necessity to strip it and dispose of the clothes, which speedily accomplished by ripping up the coat sleeves, vest, &c. While removing the clothes, the keys, money, &c., caused a rattling, and took them out and laid them one side. pulled part of the awning over the body to hide it then cut and tore a piece from the awning for the purpose of lessening its bulk, supposing it Was too much to crowd into the box with the body l. c., it would not go in. then tied as tight as could a portion of tho avn. ing about the head, having placed something like flax, which found in the box, with the awning. This flax or swinging tow came from room had previously occupied, (No. 3 Murray street,) also the awning.

 l then drew piece of this rope around the legs at the joint of the knees, and tied them together. then connected rope to the one about the shoulders or neck and bent the knees towards the head of the body as much as could. This brought it into compact form. After several efforts l succeeded in 'aising the body into chair seat, thence to he top of the box, and turning it round lit. le, let 1t into the box as easy as I could, pack downwards, with head raised. The lead, knees and feet were still q little an,t, put by reaching down to the bottom of the oox and pulling the body little towards ne, I readily pushed the head in and feet. The knees still projected, and had to stand lpon them with all my weight before could get them down. The awning was then all crowded in the box, excepting Il piece or two, which reserved to wash the floor. There being still portion of the box next 10 the feet, took his coat, and after pulling up portion of the awning, crowded it partially lnder them and replaced the awning. The cover was at once put on the box and nailed town with four or five nails which were bro. xen and of but little account.

 then wrapped the remainder of his c!o- hing up and carried it down stairs 10 tic privy and threw it into it, together with his keys. wallet, pencil case, &c. These lat Ter things took down in my hat and pock. cts, q part wrapped in a paper and part otherwise. In throwing them down, think they must have rattled out of the paper.

 l then returned to the room, carried down the pail which contained the blood, and threw it into the gutter of the street, pumped sev- eral pails of water and threw in the same direction. The pump is nearly opposite the outer door of the building. Then carried pail of water up stairs, and commenced wash ing the floor, and repeated said washing to third pail; then rnscd the pail, returned it clean and two-thirds full of water to the room !; opened the shutters as usual, drew u chair to the door and leaned it against it on the inside as l closed it. Locked tho door and went at once to the Washington Bath House in Pearl street, near Broadway. On my way to the Bath House, went by Il hard. ware store for the purpose of getting some nails to further secure the box-store was closed. When l got 10 the Bath House, think by tho clock there it was minutes past 10.

 I washed out my shirt thoroughly in parts of the sleeves and bosom, that were some what stained with blood from washing the floor. My pantaloons on the knees I also washed little, and my neck handkerchief in spots. .lt ...
