The Story of a Sad- and Remarkable Crime. An Easy Death.

Met with. Courage and Calmness. fBy Cable to The Boston Globe.1 Lottdon. July 29. Catherine Webster was executed in the Wandsworth jail today, for the murder of her mistress, Mrs.

Thomas, at Richmond. The murder of Mrs. Thomas Is one of the most remarkable crimes on record. Mrs. Thomas was a lady In comfortable circumstances, residing in Richmond quite alone, save for her servant.

The latter became infatuated with a married man named Church, and conceived The Idea of Murdering: Her mistress and possessing herself of her properly, and after disposing of it of going to America with the proceeds, accompanied by this man. She carried out her purpose with great deliberation, and murdered her mistress by strangling her to death on Sunday afternoon, early in the month of March. She then dragged the body of ber victim to the cellar of the house, where she disrobed it, and by aid ot a saw and axe cut it into pieces. She wrapped some fragments in a paper and placed them in a wooden box, which she managed to convey to the river and throw over the bridge. These fragments were found and identified some time after the murder had been committed.

Meanwhile Webster, in connection with her paramour, Church, had sold much of the property of the murdered woman, and were on the point of removing the remainder of the furniture when some suspicions of the neighbors were excited, became alarmed. She went to Ireland, where Soon After She Was Arrested. Upon her arrest she declared she was not a murderer, but that Church during her absence from the house bad entered it and killed Mrs. Thomas, and upon her return terrified her into aiding him In mutilating and disposing of the body. This story was proved false.

Church was discharged from custody, and the woman waa tried and convicted before Justice The execution today was conducted with the utmost privacy. No one was allowed to be present, save the sheriff, the surgeon, the chaplain and a few officers of the prison and Mar-wood the executioner. No reporters of the press were permitted to witness the execution, but the sheriff states that the woman up to the last displayed remarkable composure, and death was apparently a painless and very speedy one. Immediately after the execution a coroner's jury was empanelled to view tbe body, which was then divested of all clothing save a simile garment. She was buried in a shallow grave within the prison-yard and covered with quick-lime.

OIIIUB FOKK1GN NEWS. An Industrial Controversy Settled by Earl London, July 29. The long and protracted controversy between the miners at Durham and their employers has at last been ended by the acceptance hv the miners of the award made by Karl Derby, to whom by a joint agreement between masters and men the dispute was submitted lor decision. His lordship decides tbat there shall be a reduction of ten per cent, in wages, to continue until business revives sufficiently to justify a return to the prices lately paid. Excitement in the colliery district ran high during the strike, and the men being out of work frequently indulged in riots and disorderly assemblages.

The Congressional Committee of Inquiry. Cumulative Testimony Against Contracted Currency. fppeclal Despatch to The Boston Globe.1 CfftcAo, Hh. Jnly 29Tbe first witness be-fere the congressional labor committee today was John T.

Seammon, the first major of Chicago, and formerly wealthy, but who became bankrupt in the panic of 1M73. He said the banks bad all the money but It belonged to their creditors. Bosi-ness, bowever, was generally good, especially at the stock yards, where many fine residences could be seen that hogs bad built. Witness remedy for depression was aa adequate circulation of currency. He had spent a million and a half after the big tire in the building ot the city, and was prepared to state that what was wanted was more currency.

Banks were nothing but pawn-shops, where you could borrow If you had four-fold security. Mr. Wright "1 you mean to say that loans are never made without such security Mr. wcammon "Never; at least hardly ever." (Laughter.) Mr. Snerwln you care to do business with a bank that did not require security air.

Scarnmon "Just as senn as with a merchant who gave credit to good standing trade." The witness reittirated his faith in a greater volume of currency. Mr Dickens "What amount would you think necessary 1 Mr Scammon "The Lord may know, but I don't." The witness denounced the legislation of the country, which, he said, had been all wrong for twenty-five years. The second witness was Joseph C. Forrest, a writer for the press. The cauee of the depression was primarily the panic, which he thought was caused by A too Great Increase of Coin, as compared with bank notes, greenbacks and currency.

Jf the country continues on Secretary Sherman's plan ot inflation it will come to a crash. He agreed with Mr. Scammon that there eliould be money enough to establish an equilibrium between supply and demand and prevent stagnation holding the products of the country. He protested against England being allowed to fix the price of American commodities. He favored the repeal of the resumption act.

William iialey appeared, representing the National Oreen back-Labor party. The depression, he said, waa due to a departure from correct American ideas, over-inflation, wild speculation and high living, followed hy too sudden and too great contraction. He commented severely upon the press ot the country being enslaved to the money power, and not truthfully representing the sentiment of the people. He tsaid there was no money except in the hands of Shy-locks. It was inaccessible to the poor man because of exorbitant interest.

He could not find words severe enough to arraign Secretary Sherman and the Republican party. He denied that there was evil In over-production. Production only made more wealth. The government should tide over bard times by employing the idle poor in public works, like France. Manufacturers were hard-hearted and reeardless of the condition of their employes.

Witness was a Communist, so far as to stand up for capital-oppressed people. He believed the eight-hour system should be generally instituted. John H. Ridizie, the next witness, thought the financial depression which covered the whole world must have bad an adequate cause. This ha found, first, in the fact that, up to 1875, there was en era of indebtedness.

When the nations of the world owed $32,000,000,000, everything was Inflated. The Becohd cause was the demonetization of silver by all nations at almost the same time, reducing the circulating medium about one-half. Demonetization was tthe Principal Cause of the Trouble. France alone enjoys prosperity, and she is the only country that did not demonetize silver. The improved condition of things was plainly coining here, owing to the hope of silver remonetizatlou.

The remedy would be to immediately begin re-coining silver equally with gold. Money was going begwing at lour per but it was used only for requisites and not lor speculation. He opposed an income tax. The last witness this afternoon was Judge Van H. Higgtns, who held that the trouble with labor was a lack of currency with which to compensate and Keep working people employed.

Two essentials of the community were cheap transportations and money enough to do business with. It must be a sound currency that will not fluctuate. Being asked how he would get more money into circulation, Judge Hiegins said he had no plan, but congress oucflit to have ingenuity enough to do it. He asked how it would do to stop tsxintr people for a year or two and let government pay its own expenses, thus getting $300,000,000 out into circulation. Any ehange should be made slowly, so that no sudden change would be noticeable.

At the session of the committee this evening testimony was heard from a committee representing the trade and labor unions of the city. Kacu had his complaints, remedies and suggestions. One denounced labor-saving machinery as the great bane of workiogmen, and number presented a lot ot statistics, showing the rate of pay tor twenty-two leading trades and the cost of living for the members of each. The committee adjourned until noon tomorrow. THJE DOMINION.

Smoearltna: Into Canada Increasing; A Dem-onxtration In Honor of Letellier. Montrkal, Canada. July 29. It is stated that smuggling is being largely carried on across the Vermont and New York state borders into Canadian territory in farmers' wagons, cotton goods, crockery, hardware in fact, nearly every kind of manufactured goods being thus brought over. Some United States custom officers have been heard to allude to smuggling ai0 Canadian territory just now.

as if it were on a par with that into American territory at the time of the rebellion. A man who arrived by an American train today with several articles of considerable value, and attempted to elude the customs othcer, was stopped before he got out of the depot, and the goods confiscated. It is said that the recent advance in the Canadian tariff created strong inducements to smuggle. A grand Liberal demonstration will be given to the late I.ieutenant-Uovernor Letellier in this city. It will take the form of a costly testimonial or giand banquet, probably the latter, but as lietteliier's health is in a critical state, it will not come off for some weeks.

As my Imperative duty to those who do not know me personally, but only by reputation, and for their protection against shameless deception, I will here state that one S. Sherman, who baa for the past twenty years or more been engaged in various business, namely, hoop-skirts and corset, Photographing, wood-were and willow trinkets, eating-houses, coffee-stands, oyster-stands, candy stores, meat-stalls, in this city, Brooklyn, New York and Philadelphia, his latest freak being a disreputable lager beer garden in the latter city, where he was recently arrested and figured lareeiy in the police reports of the daily newspapers and criminal courts, from whence he escaped, and now turns up in this city as a professional, advertising himself as the "original Dr.

Sherman who has become so famous throughout the land for his success In the treatment and cure of hernia or rup ture." He has the audacity to use my advertisements by substituting part of bis Dane to garble certificates of my patients by taking away the names and locations, adding fictitious ones, and making them read as If addressed to him. This bold Imposition attempts with the intelligent citizens of Boston, thinking, no doubt, if it succeeds here it will elsewhere. I do not name all these businesses as discreditable, but to show what be has really been engaged in, and what efforts he is now making to utilize my reputation to decoy and victimize the unsuspecting.
