A MONTE CARLO SENSATION.
MURDER OF A WOMAN. A GRUESOME STORY. Received August 8, 8.24 a.m. LONDON, August 7. An Englishman named Goold and his French wife, both formerly of Waterloo, near Liverpool, were arrested at Marseilles. They ordered a trunk to be despatched to London. Afterwards blood was found to be ooziiig from the trunk, which, on being opened, was found to contain the headless and legless body of a woman. Goold's portmanteau contained the head and legs. Goold stated that Swedish woman, named Livey, who frequented a gambling room, was murdered at their house at Monte Carlo by a disappointed lover, and that the Goolds, fearing arrest because the body was on their premises, decided to return to England with the corpse. A man named Bucker has been arrested at Monte Carlo as a party to the crime. It is reported from Marseilles that Livey had much jewellery.
