WOMAN CONFESSES.

Received August 11, 10.13 p.m. Paris, August 14

Mrs Goold, replying to the examining Magistrate, confessed that her husband murdered Mrs Levin with an Indian knife. She was not present, but on entering the ioom she saw Mrs Levin dead on the floor, and her husband covered with blood. He implored her to aid him to avert all suspicion. He took drink and began cutting up the remains. This was done the next day. She was unable to explain why her husband killed the woman.

MAN ALSO CONFESSES. Received August 14, 11.17 p.m. Paris, August 14. Goold has confessed to the Magistrate that on the day before the murder Mrs Levin asked him to lend her 500 francs. She came to the villa, and he paid her the money, when she asked for another 500, explaining that she wanted to give it to her banker. He refused, when heated words followed, and in a fit of rage, accentuated by drink, he stabbed her in the back, only one blow. His wife did not participate. He alone cut up the body, and he placed the dismembered.parts in the trunk and valise. Robbery was not the motive. He had ample means to live.
