Arc the Secrets Connected With
Pearl Bryan's Foul Murder.
What Has Been Made
Since Lest Week
Jackson, in an interview, says that the letters made public by Wood, did not refer to the murder, but to other matters, hut he acknowledged writ-
ting the letters to Wood.
There is much doubt expressed as to the truthfulness of the story told by the colored man who says he acted as a driver of the rockaway for Jackson and Walling on the night
of the murder.
For the first time since their arrest Walling and t\ ood saw each other on Friday. They had never had any personal acquaintance. They were both in the corridors of the jail at the same time, on Friday, and Wood caught Walling’s eye; Walling immediately turned his face away, and Wood seemed greatly elated over this fact when he told of the incident, which was noticed by
no one else.
Walling refuses to be further interviewed in regard to the tragedy, saying his attorneys have instructed him to remain silent. A spiritulistic medium held a seance Cincinnati, in which the “spirits” revealed the following in regard to
the murder:
“Where’s the head?”
“It’s in the grate.”
“Where?” somebody in the circle had the temerity to ask.
“On Fifth street.”
“Where on Fifth street?” the inquisitive inquirer asked. “I can’t locate it at present.” “Can you give us the details of the crime?” some one asked. “She was drugged in a woman’s room. A surrey was hired and so was George Jackson, the colored

when 1 met him at the collegs I asked him where Pearl was. and i f everything was a right, and he replied: ’She is safe and all right.' 1 asked him where she was, and he would not tell me. 1 asked him about a dor.on times where she was and fcow she was getting along, but could gain no satisfactory Information. He was not at home at all, \\ ednesday night. He came in, late Thursday night, or Friday morning, about 2 o'clock, and took s . me things off the hook in the closet and put them in Pearl's valise, which he had in
the room, and then went out.
"I do not know what time he retorned. but when 1 awoke in the morning he was in bed. Walling and I went to college at 8:30 Friday morning. I left him there about 9:30 o clock, and went to Albion's, on Sixth street, and had mv hair cut and whiskers shaved oil. After that 1 went to dinner at Heider's, and Walling came in.

he said that he first received an intimation to that effect about the
middle of November.
He regarded Wood as a great braggart, but felt constrained to tell what he had heard to two or three bosom friends of the Bryan family. He said he would have gone to her parents with the information but tor the fear of its falsity, and the hearts that would be made to ache by a revelation whose falsity might possibly be proved. When the identity of the murdered girl was established, however, he immediately acquainted 1 them with secret. This was the extent of his knowledge of Jackson and Wood’s connection and the use he made of it. He also says that Jackson’s deportment while in his office was unexceptionable, and that Wood’s visits there were solely for the purpose of meeting Jackson. The two men Wood and Jackson)

Walling was there until about 10:30 o clock, when he went oat, taking Pearl’s grip with him. I had retired. I saw him no more that night. I got up about 10 o’clock Saturday morning. Walling was in bed. I went to college, and then to dinner. From there went back to the college, remaining until about 4:30. When Walling and 1 went down I bought a paper, and then for the first time 1 heard of the Fort Thomas case. I said to V\ ailing, ’Great heavens, what’s this. “He made no reply, and I noticed tho pe culiar expression of his face, turning from a burning red to a ghastly white. I started to read the paper as I walked away,and l 8*ul:
“ ‘This isn’t your rase, is it?’
“He closed his Ups, but said not a word, said. What have you done, and where is the head?’ . , . . . “He replied: *It’s all right; keen quiet and say nothing. I’ve thrown it overboard. “About that time I was very scary and nervous We had a drink and than went to supper. I could not eat. He left me and told me me to meet him at the room. I did so. '' hen I walked ini found him with half a dozen bundles wrapped in newspapers, which he said ‘w'e must get rid of.’ lie grabbed some and I took some. Since that time the public is a better judge of what has occurred than 1

A portion of the services at College Ave. M. E. Church, Sunday morning, were sad and affecting, and there were many weeping eyes, when a sympathetic memorial to Mr. and Mrs. A. 8. Bryan was read, and also a testimonial of sympathy to Presiding Elder Wood, both of which were passed by a rising vote. They were
as follows:
“The officers and members of College Ave nue Church desire in this way to extend to Brother and Sister Alexander Bryan a word of consolation and sympathy on account of the great grief which has tailen on them and their household. Our hearts are deeply moved by this unspeakable sorrow. We wish by rallying around the afflicted family to bear as much us we may of their burden and calamity. We send to them our assurance of confidence and love. They are supported bv our life-long esteem. Brother and Mater Bryan and all the members of their family may have the comfort ot knowing that the members of this church are their friends alike in the day of gladness and the hour of sorrow and death. They are morui than ever endeared to us by the terrible affliction which has come to them in the loss of their beautiful daughter. We extend to them our hands, and open our hearts in prayer ami hope, beseeching God to bind up their wounds and give them a great comfort which shall buoy them up while they cross the dark gulf of this mysterious sorrow. May the Lord bless them, ana preserve them and restore them in life and soul, and keep them to the perfect day.” “The officers and members of College Avenue Methodist Episcopal Church nave learned with deepest regret of the sorrow which has come to our beloved presiding elder, Rev. i). M. Wood, and to bis family. We deem it fitting to express to him, uiunr tiie present painful circumstances, the sense of common grief which we all bear ou his account, ami in particular to assure him of our deep and earnest respect and unabated confidence. We have had cause for many years to appreciate the high Christian character of Rev. Weod us a minister ot the Gospel; his enviable rank in the conference to which he belongs; his fathful services m the churches to which he lias ministered; his capable and efficient work in the office oi presiuing elder, in which relation the officers und members of this church have known him best. In all our acquaintance with Rev. w ood, he has shown without a shadow the brightness and warmth of the Christian cuaracter. His ministry has been invariably successful, and his walk ami conversation among the people such as to endear him to them all as a pastor and a friend. In the day of his grief und discouragement we should do less than our duty and privilege if we failed to extend to Rev. Wood this earnest assurance of our sympathy and abiding trust We wish him to know and to feel the support of our confidence and our prayers. Rev. Wood is fortified in the love and esteem of this church, and we wish to uphold him in all of his relations, personal and ministerial. W'e trust that he will accept at our hands ttiis voluntary testimonial of the respect, affection and perfect confidence in wiiich he is held by this church, and as we doubt not, by all the churches oi the Northwest Indiana Conference. May Gwd bless Rev. Wood and his wife in this their time of trial, and make them strong in hope and in the love and sympathy of all Christian people.” On Tuesday the case nf \\ illiam Wood, charged with abetting an attempt to commit an abortion, was called in the police court. The prisoner appeared attended by his attorneys, Davis and Blackburn of this city and col. Matson. His father, the Rev. Mi. v> ood. and the Rev. Dr. Rust were also present. By consent the case was postponed until Apiil 15 and the bail was reduced from
$6,000 to $8,000.
Rev. D. M. Wood has given out for publication a statement in regard to his son’s con nection with the crime. In speaking of the foul letters sent by Wood to Jackson he said: “1 have no apology for the letters. They were as great a revelation to me us they were to anyone else. I did not consider him capable of using such language. They struck me as being profane and coarse, rather than vulgar and indecent. They appear to he such as a boy might write who wished to appear as bad as some one else, ami it is plain to any one who will study them that they were exaggerated and unnat

w he kept up that intimaev.
and how he kept up that intimacy.
Jackson made \V ill believe that in the case ot Pearl Bryan the operation to be perlormed in Cincinnati was of common occurrence, was very simple and safe and would detain her here only four or five days. In fact, she was detained here alive only five days. He said Dr. Gillespie, during the holidays, uiged Jackson to marry Pearl Bryan,
hut he refused.
Elder Wood's statement, the substance of which is given above, was the cause of grief to Mr. Bryan und family. Many of the allegations made by the reverend gentleman they regard as retlections on the memory of the murdered girl, and on themselvea as well. W hile young Wood had no direct connection with the murder, they insist that lie is primarily responsible for the meeting that leu up to it. But for the part lie played in the conspiracy for Pearl Bryan’s fall, they believe she would not be the innocent, unsuspecting girl who was lured to her ruin. They lusisl. therefore, that Wood’s conduct exhibits the basest perfidy and that his 1.titer should draw it mild in picturing him
as tiie victim of bad associates.
Only a short time betore the tragedv at Ft. Thomas, he defamed his own motner, though he then knew, or should have known, that: her heart was destined to break, like that of tiie mother of I’earl Bryan, over the terrible \ deiioueuieiit in store for them.
