THE WALLERTEVNAMITE CASE.

 

Two Detectives Arrested Charged
with Encouraging Perjury.

Bloomsburg, Pa... Oct. 14.—There is a
new sensation in the famous Vl'inter-
steen-Knorr-Waller dynamiting case,
caused by the arrest in Reading of
Henry Martz and H. C. W. Martz, pri-
vate detectives, who were employed by
the defense during the first trial this
Summer to look after the witnesses in
Reading.
Martz with willful and criminal solici—
tation to commit perjury, and his
brother with willful subornation of per-

jury. They are founded upon informa-
tion given by Emma VVickel Swickert,
“‘21? '1 V. Riffert and John J. Faust,
1hr" ‘

\Vintersteen’s most important

‘3 suspected by the prosecution

2?. was a great conspiracy in—

;mrjury, and in fact the con-

.“ - vidence in the first trial, which

he.“ in its nullification, was such

: 1“ we was undoubtedly perjury on

c . P or the other. The prosecution

.:—;~;erts that it has indisputable
def-1:- of this.

-‘ro::: the story obtained from those

(.0 :ssisted in the work it appears

.at several Reading witnesses, who

to Pileged to have been promised cash

J give certain testimony calculated to

week down "the evidence of the prose-
:uiion, became impatient on not re-
ceiving the: money and threatened to
reveal the plot unless their pay was
soon forthcoming. These complaints
finally reached the ears of Waller’s at-
turneys.

A Philadelphia lawyer was sent to
heading with plenty of money, and he
cultivated the acquaintance of the wo-
men Who had figured as witnesses for
Wintersteen, and soon won his way
into the good graces of Emma Swick-
ert. Emma is alleged to have taken
her newly-made friend into her confi-
dence and asked him for advice as to
how to secure the $1,000 which, it is al-
leged, she was to have received for her
part in the trial.

The detective volunteered to not only
secure Emma’s money, but also the
amounts alleged to have been prom-
ised to her friends who testified in the
case. Emma accepted the proposition
and so did her friends, and after get—
ting certain statements and papers
from them, Emma’s new friend left, as
he said, to force payment of the claims
by VVintersteen at Bloomburg.

The arrest of the two detectives fol-
lowed, and more are expected.

' ATKINSON JURORS DISAGREE.

Five \Vould Have Convicted the
Governor's “'ife of Forgery.

Glenville, W'. Va., Oct. 14.—-The jury
in the case of Mrs. Atkinson, the wife
of the Governor of this State, who has
been on trial for forgery, disagreed.
After several hours’ deliberation they
returned to the courtroom at 1.30
o’clock yeterday afternoon and an-
nounced that they stood five for con-
viction and seven for acquittal. They
were dismissed.

The defendant was continued under
bail for a new trial.

Mrs. Atkinson was accused of forg—

ing the name of her former husband,
Judge Gideon D. Camden, of Clarks-
burg, W. Va., to several receipts for
money alleged to have been loaned by
her to‘Judge Camden. Testimony was
offered at the trial to show that the
receipts were written and 'signed by
Mrs. Atkinson after her former hus-
band's death.
_ Certain lands owned by Judge Cam—
den were found by the executors of his
estate to have been stripped of val-
uable timber by Joshua P. Owens, of
Gilmour County. Owens had disposed
of the timber. Suit was brought by
the heirs to recover the value of the
timber. Owens in his answer set up a
claim to the land and produced re-
ceipts in the handwriting of Mrs. At-
kinson for money alleged to have been
paid for the land.

An examination of these receipts
showed that, although purporting to
have been written at different times
and different places, two of them had
really been written on a shale piece
of paper and afterward cut apart with
a. pair of scissors.

The widow and Owens were jointly
indicted upon this evidence. Mrs. Cani-
den subsequently married Gov. Atkin—

son, who has expressed his faith in his

wife’s innocence, and has promised to
pardon her if she was convicted. The
trial has been in progress for the past
week.

ENGLAND AND BIMETALISM.

The British Cabinet Will Reply to
American and French Proposals.

London, Oct. 14. «The Daily News
says it understands that the Cabinet
33.111, on Satuiday, definitely reply to
the American and French bimetallic
proposals.

In anticipation of any action by the
Gov einment a strongly worded memo-
rial is being signed by London bankers,
discount b1 okers and merchants against
the Bank of England holding one- -fifth
of its note reserve in silver.

The memorial earnestly dcprecates
any interference with the existing stan-
dard, and is especially emphatic against
any change in the Indian cuuency
33ithout a full discussion in Parliament.

The indications are that a memorial
so extensively and influentially signed
will check the tendency of the Cabinet
to tamper with the monetary system:
of Great Britain and India.

 

Secretory Bliss Must More.

Washington, Oct. 14.—-Secretary Bliss

another house. The house is in a fash—
ionable part of the city, opposite the
homes of Secretary Alger and Senator
Hale.
