Pnraanatrurs. Nov. 19.
spirit that presides rover-o the destinies of
H. H. Holmes, styled the king of reorder-
ers, who eventually destroys all who‘aliy
themselves with him. has found another-
victim;
William A. Shoemaker. the young at-
torney, whose first association with the
case is obscured in the mystery which an-
velops its every detail. passed through an
ordeal as severe as any his client has been
called to face, and the crisis came when
he was held under 01,500 bail to answer a
charge of subcrnntlcn of perjury. This
means that he manufactured evidence
tending to prove that Benjamin F. Pits-
zel. of whose murder Holmes was convict-
ed two weeks ago, committed suicide, and
that he (Shoemaker) paid a women 820 to
sign and swans to this. But the common-
Wsaltb had supplied the woman, although
Shoemaker-was ignorant of this, and after
he had produced this important “after
iiscovorcd evidence" and read It with
great empressenront to the court he asked
that the argument on the motion fora
new trial be postponed, to give him and
his mor‘lntu counsel, Samuel P. Rotan,
time to run out this and other clews re—
cently obtained. Then it was that Dis-
trict Attorney Graham arose and exposed
the plot. His declaration came like a
thunderbolt. The court stared in wide
eyed amazement; the spectators turned in
their chairs and gasped; the accused law-
yer sank back in his seat, livid and trem-
ulous, but the prisoner in the dock rested
his cold blue eyes on the shrinking figure
of. his legal representative and smiled
with scorn.
Details of the Cinema.
Briefly told, the details of the charge
are these:
The trial for tho Pltezcl murrlcr was
not two days old when Shoemaker ap-
proached a private detective named John
Schweicbler and asked him to procure a
woman who livcrl around Twralfth or
Thirteenth and Cullcwhill or Vino streets
who would swear to certain facts in con-
nection with the finding of Pitczcl‘a body
at 1316 Callowhlll street. Schweichlcr as«
seated. but instead of stralgbtwny getting
the woman he told his story to Detective
Geycr. (iayer submitted it to District At-
torney Graham. and a most skillful trap
was prepared. ,
Under instructions Geyer went to Mrs.
Margaret Reah. matron in the Fourth
district police station. and she, under the
name of Blanche A. liunnigun, was taken
to Shoemaker by Scbwcichlor. Meantime
Shoemaker had prepared an affidavit stut-
ing that the deponcnt had known Pitozol,
and that to her he had intimated his in-
tention of committing suicide. Mrs. lion-
nigun readily signed this, and Shoemaker
gave her two Sir) hills for so doing. (in
each bill she marked the initials "ll. A.
H.." and she oxhibitod thorn in court.
Shoemaker walked into the trap blind-
folded. When he road the nfildaivt to the
must, he declared that its contents had
been dictator! to him by the woman. A
moment afterward irrefutable tostimony
was produced showing that he had him-
self made up the ailirlnvit and dictated it
to a stcnograpbor bcforo ho burl r-vcn
asked Scbwalchlcr in procrrro a woman to
sign it, and that ho had not so much as
road or oxplulnod its purport to Mrs. iian-
nlgun.
Judge Arnolri, who was upon the bench
during the trial, had r-uIIr-rl in Judges
Thnycr and Wilson to bear and decide
with him on tho merits of the arguments
for a new trial. As the strrrngn rovrrla-
lions came the throo judges did not. hosiv
into by their hearing and Words to nrnni~
fest their sense of the gravity of the no.
cusod lawyer's situation. .iudgo Arnold
afterward privately stator] that riisbrrn
ment proceedings Would be considered
after the dlrpositlon of the pending charge
against Shoemaker.
Shoes-nukes Was Stunned.
Shoemaker was stunned and shocked
beyond morssrrro, but said this was not the
time for him to talk. ltotarr, his rrsso‘
cintrt, crrprosscrl his confidence in his col-
league‘s fluul pxoncrution, but he irdmlt-
ted that the evidence of his guilt was
overwhelming. iiotuu himself was un-
amlrchr-d. Tho witnessus, the district at
torncy and the court were careful to muko
that clear. and the young barrister, who
has fought practically single handed a
battle against tremendous odds with some
skill and much fortitude, was visibly
affected.
At the conclusion of tho argument on
the motion for a new trial .lurlgc ’l‘baycr,
speaking for the court, said they would
give the case their gravest consideration.
Thou, turning to Mr. Shocrrrakcr,tbc judge
said: ”i regret that I now have a Very
disagreeable duty to perform toward you.

no other path being left upon, to lrclrl you
in 01,500 ball to answer tho charge of
subornntion of perjury and In rlcimrlt of

“The ball is hero, your honor, " said the
accused attorney.
Court was their adjourned, and hull
was entered at the side bar. Milton Jack-
son, Shoomaker'rr fathor-in-Iaw, becoming

Pit-tel Bald to lie Alive.
Crrrrrirrio, Nov. iii—A local paper pub«
llshcs the following story:
Janice McNeary, conductor on car 070
of tho Sixty-third strcct electric line, has
sprung a new sensation in tho iiolmss
case by stating that Benjamin F. l’itezel
is alive, and that he recently talked with
him on his car.
Mr. McNeary claims there could be no
mistake, as he Worked nine months for
Pitesel and knows the peculiarities of his
voice. According to Mchary, Pitczel
boarded his car a few days previous to
Holmes' trial. Pitczoi's board had grown
around the greater, part of his face, so that
he was completely disguised. When ari-
dresssd, however. he admitted his identity
and asked as a friend that Mchary keep
silent. as he was on his way to Philadel-
girls, but lIchary called In Housman

I was engaged. I asked him who he was
He said Mrs. Pitcacl sent him there for

“Saturday I learned that Mrs Pltezei
was stopping at 023‘ May street with Mr.
Hayward and sent c or to ask her if she
ever sent for the toclchsst. Both she and
her daughter Dessa declared they had not,
and I also discovered that Mrs. Pltazcl is
wavering in her belief in the identification
of Pitczel and begins to hope that the chilw

does not care whether he is living or dead.

ridge has cabled the navy department that
he had put in with his flagship San Fran-
cisco at Naples in get his mail. He wllr
proceed directly to Alexandretta, where
he should arrive about Friday next, and
will then be in reposition to extend aid to
the Americans and Europeans in that sec-
tion in the oventcf furthériuprlsings.
The Turkish situation is absorbing the
attention of the state department at pres-
ent. and due notice is taken of the various
resolutions adopted by the many religious
organizations in the United States.
Considering the terribly disturbed con-
ditions in Armenia, it is believed at the
state department that Minister Terrell
has been remarkably successful in his
efforts to protect the American mission-
aries and teachers. So far as the misfor-
tunes of the native Christians is concern-
ed. while they may operly excite the
sympathy of the entire Christian world,
the state department claims there is no
warrant for interference on the part of the
United States. the Armenians being Turks
lsh subjects, for whose religious freedom
the great European powers are responsi-
ble. Any interposition by the United
States would be not only in violation of
our traditions. but bright be used, it is
said, as a powerful argument to justify
European interference in the affairs of
American republics.
In refcrenco to rumors to the effect that
Minister Terrell has tendered his resigna-
tion, it may be stated that the department
of state is thoroughly satisfied with his
conduct in every particular; that it has
lent all possiblo support to him. and that
no reason is known that Would justify the
assumption that he intends to desert his
past in the present crisis.
