A W itness W h o Says He Saw the Girl W ant ing W ith a Man Toward tUe Woods W h ere She W as Found Dead—Diggs Is a Divorced Man. N ew Y ork , J u ly 27 .—The mystery sur rounding the suicide of Lillie Low h a d not been cleared away by Coroner O’Meaghei and the police when the body of the girl was laid at rest in Woodlawn. Enough had been learned about the girl’s wrecked life to point to a probable motive for sui cide, b u t there had been HI p explanation ol the m a rks on her body which indicated th a t she h ad been assaulted not long be fore her death. A n attem p t was being made yesterday to find some person who had seen the young woman go to the lonely place on W ashington heights where her body was found on Tuesday morning. The police w a n t to know if she w ent to th a t place alone, or if she was in the company of any person w ith whom she h a d been acquaint ed recently. Captain P ickett of the N ineteenth pre cinct made this statem e n t: “ T he g irl’s death was surrounded by strange circumstances. The autopsy showed th a t she h a d been assaulted. Then came h e r father’s rem arkable story. There was nothing left for the police to do but to sift the whole th ing and leave no stone unturned to learn why she took her life. There is little doubt th a t she committed suicide. “ Mr. Low now thinks so, b u t he feels th a t the persons now under a rrest were in a way responsible. I have gone very thor oughly about this neighborhood, and I have found a num b e r of people who knew Mr. Low and his daughter. They a ll de clare tliat they never saw two persons so apparently devoted to each other as ^ley were before their separation. ‘^As to Mr. I n m a n ’s connection with the case, we do not thin k th a t there is anything against him . We understand th a t he knew the *girl, and W 9 simply w a n t to learn w h a t he knows about her. Trowbridge knew more about her than did Mr. I n m a n .” Justified Jn Holding Prisoners, Coroner O’M eagher said th a t he thought he was justified in holding Miss Amelia K. Hanson, H enry T. Ohampney a n d Dr. Thomas J . Biggs for the inquest. “ T hey say they are respectable people,” he said, “ b u t let them prove their respect ability a t the inquest. The evidence so far obtained indicates th a t Lillie Low and her father were devoted to each other un til the girl was led away to her ru in by Miss H anson and her boarders. • “ The girl was weak minded a n d easily influenced. She could not have writ<ipn the letter which, it is alleged, she sent to her father accusing him of shocking cruel ty, and I am inclined to the belief th a t Mr. Lew has suffered great wrongs a t the hands of the persons now under bonds, even if they did not cause the girl to kill herself.” Oscar Lipsker, a German baker of 84 Madison street, who is employed by M. Vogel, a t 72 M ott street, w ent to see A c t ing Inspector Brooks a t police headquar ters yesterday, and said he was almost sure he had seen Dr. Biggs a n d Lillie Low together on Saturday afternoon at A m sterdam avenue and One H u n d red and Eighty-fifth street. Lipsker said he took advantage of his half holiday on Saturday to go on a ride to the upper part of the city, where he could get some fresh air. H e w e n t on the elevated train to One H u n d red and Twen ty-fifth street, and then rode on a cable car to the end of the line at Amsterdam avenue and One H u n d red and Eighty- fifth street. When h e g o t off the car, h e got a drink of soda w ater at a street stand, and as h e was drinking he noticed a man and a woman who were standing near him anci talking earnestly. He Thinks It W as Biggs. H is a ttention was attracted to them so strongly th a t he kept watch of them sev eral m inutes, and saw them go into the woods in which the body of Lillie Low was found on Tuesday. He said he was half inclined to fellow the couple, but he thought better of it. When he read the accounts of the g ir l’s suicide and saW the pictures of Dr. Biggs in the newspapers, he felt sure th a t he had seen Dr. Biggs and the. g irl toget||pi'. A cting Inspector Brooks called Captain P ickett a n d told him to take Lipsker with him and see if the German could identify Dr, Biggs. Captain Pickett took the Ger man to Dr. Biggs’ house and office, but was not able to find Dr. Biggs. Lipsker’.' description of the woman he saw in Am sterdam avenue on {Saturday tallied close ly w ith th a t of Lillie Low. Captain P ickett said last night that it would be interesting to know if Dr. Biggs and the girl were together on iSatiu’day near the place where she probably killed herself late on Monday afternoon. A dispatch from C incinnati states that Dr. Biggs secured a divorce from a wom an he had m a rried about four years ago. Dr. Biggs was a prom inent physician at Glendale, a suburb of Cincinnati, it is said, and was connected w ith the Medical college w ith Dr. Massey, physician of the C., H, and D. railroad, and had sufficient influence to suppress all publication about his s u it a n d decree of divorce.

Wells post) (white) expressed interest and sym pathy w ith the colored, members of the G. A- B., but decided to take no definite action w ithout first w riting to the director general at Louisville. The reply received was as follows: “ I have your favor of the 22d m a k ing inquiry concerning the article which ap peared in the Cleveland Gazette regarding the color line being draw n in this city, cannot u n d erstand w h a t motive the w riter of this article could have had other than a desire to secure a little cheap notoriety a t the expense of the city. We have paid no a ttention to this as far as newspapers are concerned. We have only answered such letters as have made inquiries on the sub ject. I t is too contemptible and not 'w o rthy of recognition from the citizens’ com mittee in the way of an article to the public. “ T here is hot one iota of tru t h in the article, and it deserves w h at it is receiv ing—the universal contempt of this entire city. Both w h ite and colored are pro nounced in their denunciation of such an article in the face of the efforts th a t are being made by both w h ite and colored people to m ake the entertainm e n t in this city a memorable occasion. “ Colored comrades w ill be quartered w ith the w h ite comrades in the school- houses if the latter desire or, they w ill be quartered in sclioolhouses by themselves, ju s t as it is desired, bub the same p repara tion has been made for one as the other.
