CHARGES DEAD WITH CRIME.
^ Judge Murphy's Nummary of the
Kurdict Testimony.
^ v Buffalo, N. Y., March 31.?The
verdict in the Burdict inquest.
' II
handed down by Judge Murphy ^
today, while stating that the ^
identity of the murderer of Ed ^
win L. Burdict has not been prov- tt
en, practically charges Arthur R. ^
l'ennel, the dead lawyer, with ^
the crime. ,
1(
l'ennel had a stronger motive ^
than any one else for putting ^
Burdick out of the wav, Judge
' R]
Murphy says, and all the facts j
brought out by the inquest consti- ^
tutes just, grounds for the issu ,j
ance of a warrant against Pemiell u
if he were alive. n
The verdict is softened somewhat
so far as it relates to l'ennel by 11
the statement that it l'ennel were j.
alive he would be given the pre p
sumption of innocence until prov- n
en guilty. n
In the opinion of Judge Murphy
Burdick had no woman guest "

murder and the crime was not tl

tude toward the authorities and
the inconsistency of her actions ^
with the theory that she had no (,
knowledge of the murder. t<
Judge Murphy stated this after- k
noon that he will hold the inquest
into the death of Arthur 11
L. Fennel the latter part of this J|
week or the first of next. Li
Judge Murphy's findings con- h
tain an exhaustive review of the
evidence brought out during the '
o
inquest.
In the beginning of his report c
Judge Murphy certifies that the 'I
cause of Burdick's death <4was A
compound, comminuted, mutiple
V fracture of the skull. That said
; fracture was the result of several |
/ blows by some person with a dull
^ edged weapon, delivered with
homicidal intent, and the identity
of said person has not been provided."
He reviews briefly the events of
the evening preceding the mur
der as brought out in the testi
mony, which ho says does not *
ehow that anything unusual oc- S
curred at tlie Burdick house in
the morning and of the events
preceding its discovery as related
by the different members of the
household is told and the dis- ^
creponcies in the testimony of
the servants and Mrs. Hull is
pointed out.
I Where is the motive for the
^4 crime?" asks Judge Murphy, and
V then he takes up the relations of
Irs. Burdict and Fennel and tl
avs that it seems that five years ii
go, on the occasion of a visit to p
Jew Haven by the Burdicks and b
'ouuells, 2s. Burdick "gave the h
[>ve which belonged to her hus- t<
and to another. She loved Pen- ti
iel and he apparently became u
nfatuatod with her." Burdick h
earned the truth and a separa-|e
ion followed, but because of love |
or his children he took his wife (|
>ack and forgave the author of t
lis wrong upon his promise to d
eave Buffalo. "This promise and c
lie promise which Mrs. Burdick li
nade to her husband," saj s
hidge Murphy, "were shameless- f
y broken. Finally Mr. Burdick n
old her she must leave his house, I
nd he applied for a divorce from r
lis wife. Pennel, however, in L
uced her to defeat the suit, a
lurdick had been shadowingPen- i
ell and Mrs. Burdick and Pennell 1
ad detectives shadowing Bur- r
ick. So far as appears from s
lie evidence," says the Judge, t
Pennell had not succeeded in t
ompromising Burdick in any p
ray. Burdick, however, had a a
>t of evidence, consisting of let- 8
?rs written by Pennell to Mrs. d
lurdick of such a gushing, love- |<
irk, importuning nature that d
leir publication meant complete a
umiliation and Rocial ruin to n
leir author. This, of all b
thers," says the judge, "was the 01
lotive strong enough to incite a h
esperate mind, already steeped tl
1 wrongdoing, to commit so foul ai
nd cruel a murder. Did he do CJ
? Was he responsible for it? oi
le had returned from the deal ei
lan's wife the day before the p
lurder. He was here that night, tl
[e was very much excited thejb
ext. morning and went and pur j c<
naseu a revolver. 1 lie clerks it
resent at the sale state I hut at hi
lint time he did not appear at
II like himself." I
The judge tells of Pennell's visit fi
3 the tails on the discovery of the o
lurder, of his message to his h
rife to bring the papers and of k
lieir failure to return for dinner e
hat evening. Continuing, the o
ldgo says in one of Pennell'a n
otters to Mrs Burdict, thesr was i
threat that he would kill her
usbaiul. The cashier and bar- 1<
seder. of a New York hotel also o
as ti lied that he said he wou'd u
ill a certain man, and Mrs Pen- n
ell had written Burdict a warn- g
lg letter Pennell had com p
lete knowledge of the Burdick s<
ome and considering his rela t<
ions with the family it would g
avo been an easy matter lor g
im to obtain a key thereto. Alnoalkn.
