George F. Lucas, held an in-qaest over the dead budyjon the Thursday folic wing and made a full and lair investigation. The juryj was composed of an equal number of whites and blacks A cjrrsspondent there sends us the cream of the evidence, and the report of the jury a follows: The maiiji witnesses were Walter Yeates, T.

All testify that they, with said Walker and Bell, wsre together on the main road, and go- lag trS Ur. rorter 8. irom me; iaer tield, where they had I all been at work. A disputo arose between the deceased and Buck' Walker about some trifling matter. JJoti words ensued, and passion was high on the part of each.

It was sworn to by Yeates, Cowan and John D. 'Walker, that Bell commenced to ad- vance and was advancing, jwnn open and drawn, jupon Buck Walker, n.l that Walker then seized a hoe that was at hand and proceeded to meet Bell, both advancing in a strikiag attitude, and that the fatal blow with the hoe upon the skull of Bell was made by when the disputants were thus advancing, and were face to face It was sworn 'to by Batts and Picket that said parties, in said attitude and with said weapons, wire advancing upon one another as aforesaid, but that Bell had turned hjs back and was walking off from Walker, when the latter gave the fatal blow. Dr. W. T.

Ennett, County Superin-tendant of Public Health, who was present and made a poa mortem examination ot the tkuil and brain of the deceased, in accordance with the wishes of the iuryf testified as follows That upon removing the scalp he found a fracture about fonr inches long extending from the coronal suture across the parietal bone to near the temporal In removing the skull, the membranes were found ruptured and the brain substance wounded. wound and its effects would, in' tke opinion of Dr. Ennett, necessarily cause deatk. Dr. E.

Porter, who was the attending surgeon upon the deceased, testified that he saw the deceased in a very few hours after the fatal blow, and found him in a coma tose condition, with tetanic spasms. He found no abrasion of the scalp, but a fracture of the skull. He gave it as his upinlon that the wound was tot necessarily a fatal one if the patient could have been successfully operated upon. The knife I gave to the Coroner, was the one placed in my hands by Burnell Batts, and which he (Batts) saidj ht had taken from the hand of thej deceased, after he was knocked down by Walker.

In the mean time the police, under the direction of Chief! of Police Brock were scouring the streets in every direction iu search of Heaton. The route he bad taken as followed by OfficT O'Brien, was further confirmed by the testimony of.two trentlemen who met Heaton at the corner of Third and Princess streets, running with a pistol in his hand. He was in terrogated bv one of the gentlemen as to the cause of tho shooting down the street, and he replied that a man rad shot a woman down there and that he (Heaton) was trying to head him off.

Capt. Goodman of the night force with one or two policemen hurried to the house on Third street, mentioned above, an made a th search for the escaped murderer, but returuei Itoithe City Hall without having discovered any clue to him. About this time it was reported at the City Hall that a pistol shot had been heard on Fourth street, in a vacant lot kno wn as the Morris lot. On receipt of this intelligence Capt. Goodman and Officers Everett and Walker were ordered to take a lantern and search every part of tbe lot.

Subsequent developments confirmed the fact that the fugitive must have gone in the course followed by tbe officers in i their search. On Fourth street, leading in to the back yard of Mrs. Fulton's premises, a large gate, being partly ajar, opens up a narrow alley way into which the fleeing criminal must have hurried to escape bis pursuers, and then following on in the different ramifications of the enclosure until he came to a fence, en the other side of which was a savage bull dog, baffled in the attempt to escape, and to scale the fence, it is thought that in an act of desperation Heaton committed the last act of this fearful tragedy by taking his own lite. He was found by Captain Goodman and the other officers lying upon his back with his feet near the fence; the pistol which was the jinstrumentof rushing two souls unprepared into ine presence of their Maker was found a few inohes from his right hand; his umbrella was on his left side, and his head thrown back, while he breathed heavily aud vwth difficulty; a small hole, bine aroundthe edge.in the right temple, scarcely the size of a silver dime, told the story where the fatal ball had entered. Dr.

King wa3 summoned and examined the wound, from which the brain was slightly oozing. Tbe kail, which Dr. King says would have passed entirely through the head, bui for the weapon having been held so close, had lodged in the brain. Dr. King at once pronounced the wound a fatal one.

After arrival of the Coroner the same ambulance which an hour before had carried the murdered weman to her house was again brought into requisition and the body jof Mary Bad-cliffe's murderer was carried to the dead, woman's house.and the 'corpses of the murdered an 1 the suicide and murderer laid side by side. The coroner held an irquest yesterday morning, and the verdict was ia accordance iwith the above atement of facts. i.i All day long yesterday crowds of people thronged the room to get a last look at the faces of the dead. At 6 o'clock the funeral of Heaton took place from the Undertaker's shop of J. W.

Woolvin to Oakdale cemetery, where it was interred in tho public burying ground. Dr. Patterson, of St. 'John's Episcopal Church, was asked to officiate and accom pained the remains to their last resting place, and read a few prayers at the grave, it being positively against a rubric of the church, made and provided for such ca'o, to use tho beautiful service of the church on this occasion. A couple of hymns were also sung by the few persons present, and then all that was earthly of the poor wretched being, who had first killed and theo suicided, was lowered into the graye and hid from view forever.

What the thoughts of those few were who stood around that open grave can be better imagined we suppose than "described. Horrible, horrible, most horrible, must have been the thoughts of all we suppose as they dwelt noon 'the horror of the crime and the sud- deneas of the last deed. Heaton has a mother living in Ohio ho has been informed by telegraph, we learn, of the awful fate of her only re maining child.

Harder and Suicide The First Tlc-tlm ft Well Known Colored Womn The A nth or or all a Defunct Radl- i eal Politician.

1 One of the most shocking tragedies that ever occurred within the limits of this city was enacted hero on Saturday night last," about 11 o'clock, by James Heaton, a native of Ohio, and a notorious disreputable character who was at one time a very prominent ditician in the Republican party in this State. The victim of this diabolical mmrder was a bright mulatto woman kmwn as Mary Radclifie, with whom the of this terrible deed had for some time past been on terms of intimacy The occurrence took place near th corner of Market and Second streets.in front of Messrs Behrends Mun roe's furniture store. Heaton, it is said, had quarrelled with and beaten his paramour very batJy on Tharday night and to avoid any further interoouree with him she had left town on Friday, but returned either that night or next day. In the meartime she hd most of her things moved from tke homse where she had been Hying, on Third, between Brunswick and Bladen streets, to some other locality in the neighborhood of Seventh or Eighth streets, near Chestnut, where it is reported she slept on Friday night, intending at an early day to leave the city entirely and go to one of the summer resorts in this State where she had already procured a situation as chambermaid. But Heaton ia seems had tracked the woman and on Saturday night Yisited Mr.

Henry Haar's store, on the corner of Seventh and Chestnut (streets, there making inquiries for his intended victim. It is further rumored that the murderer had gone to the house whither this woman bad removed her things and in her absence had a trunk of clothes carried ott tfnd Mwfnr mrfcinfl. to dis- IW rw 1 cover the object of his malice he came down street and encountered the unfortunate woman at the place above stated. One cf the wjtnesssa before the Coroner's Jury testified that Htaton came up to where his victim was engaged in conversation with several other colored women, a hor where she had been for the last two or three days and then proffered.to shake bands with her, which the woman refused to the witness, Jaa. Edward a colored man who was with Mary Radcliffe at the time says was proffarred four different times, and each time refused by the woman, who told Heaton she wanted nothing more to de with bim.

Heaton then replied, damn you I'll make you have jsomething to do with me, and advanced a step nearer towards her, at th same time drawing his pistol and aimintf at tho woman's breast. Th next instant he fired, the woman ut-terid a piercing screamiaying, you have killed fell to the pavement insensible. The excitement then became so great and general that it is exceedingly difficult to get a correct account of what transpired after tho first shot. The man Walker, who was accompanying the wo-man Mary Radcliffe home at her request, as she said be told him she was afraid to go by herself, 'stated to th jury that he ran and Heaton fired at kim and then turned and fired at a colored woman in the crowd by the name of Louisa Fleu ming. Other account, which Jwo are inclined to think are more reliable, state that Heaton flred at the woman twice aftr sho missed hr each time.

However thi may be certain it is that niitnl hall of the same calibre was found on the pavement flattened, very near tho scene of the terrible deed. The fatal ball entered a ltttle to tho right of the right breast, passing through the lungs aad causing almost instant death. As soon as the pistol shots were heard. Officer O'Brien, who was on the opposite side of tho street, rushed over, and saw Heaton a ho turned and fled. Thi officer then pursed bim np Market street to Third, and saw him turn np Third to Princess, and further pursued him up Princess to Fourth street, where he lost sight pf him.

A large crowd at once collected around the body of tho woman, Drs. Lane, King, Burbank and Walker among them, all but the latter of these medical gentlemen arriving before death occurred. On the arrival of tho Coroner, the bodj waa taken In an ambalanoo and conveyed to ths house of the doccasad woman, on Agent B.
