THE HOBOKEN MURDER - Mary C. Rogers, the finding of whose body we mentioned yesterday, was employed in Anderson’s cigar store, Broadway. She was seen with a young man in Barclay street on Sunday morning, as if prepared for a Hoboken ramble. The young man, it is said, is known but is not at present within reach. The character of the unfortunate girl is said to have been good. Her employment, however, put her greatly within the reach of malign influence. It is supposed that the horrid act was effected by a concerted plot, in which several were engaged.
