Iany Delays to the “Dolphin"
and a ilather Eventful Trip
Down the Potomac River,
With a Good Deal of Bad
Weather

WASHINGTON, June 13.-—After ra.
ther an eventful trip down the Poto-

Chaoiet. a friend of the secretary's
family. After experiencing a good deal
of bad weather the Dolphin arrived in
Hampton Roads and took part in the
naval display of last. Monday. The fol-
lowing day the party made to trip in
the light house tender Maple up the
James river to a point thirty miles be-
yond Jamestown island. on a visit to
some friends. At that point Postmas-
ter-general Meyer left the party, driv-
ing to the nearest railroad station,
about seven miles distant and return-
Ing by train to Washington.

Much fog and bad weather made the
navigation of the tortuous James River
difficulty and the party was not able
'to return to the Dolphin. which lay
at the mouth of the river. awaiting
them until yesterday afternoon. when
the party trans-shipped from the Maple
and came leisurely up the Potomac.

MRS. LINEBURGH TELLS
ABOUT BROTHER’S WORK

Says A. W. Wallace, in, Din
Nothing Unusual in Bakery
Business

 

 

 

a

‘Morevdetails almut the pro‘erty of
the late A: w. Wallace were rought
out in the Superior Court yesterday
when Mrs. William G.. Lineburgh tes-
tified in the suit of A. W. Wallace-J12,
against Judge Morris 13. Beardsley, ad-
ministrator. an action in which Mr.
Wallace'tclaims the ownership of S12.-
500 worth of stocks left by his father.

Mrs. Lineburgh, who is.a daughter
of the late Mr. Wallace, gave testi-
mony about her brother‘s claim that
he had worked hard at the bakery bus-
inesa and deserved some reward from
his father. The witness remembered
a. conversation with her brother in
which he said that he ought to get
the. larger part of his father's estate
because he had made the bakery busi-
ness, while the girls had done nothing.
Mrs. Lineburgh said she didn't think
that was quite just because her father
thought just as much of one of his
children as he did the others.

Mrs. Lineburgh denied her brother‘s
statement. that the elder Mr. Wallace
had paid for the Lineburgh‘s bunga-
low at the shore. "My father didn‘t
pay a cent toward it." she declared.
"He didn't. even give a piece of fur—
niture." The witness recalled-a con-
versation with her father in which he
said the boy was doing no more than
he ought. to do. He( the elder Mr.
Wallace) had given his son a. share in
the business and he thought the boy
ought to work hard.

Mrs. Sara Wells, a sister of the late
A. W. Wallace. said she had a talk
with young Mr. Wallace a short time
before her brother died. lie. told,
then, how his father had Elven him
the stock in the Bridgeport & Poit
Jefferson Steamboat 00. it was about
six weeks before Mr. Wallace died.
The son said he saw his father in his
omcc looking over securities and he
said: "Father. you have never made
me a present in your life. Won’t you
give me that Port Jefferson Steamboat
stock?" The elder Mr. Wallace hesi-
talcd and finally said he would give
up the stock, provided his son gave
him the life use of it.

Mrs. Wells asked young Mr. Wallace
if he had any witnesses to the trans-
action or if the stock had been trans-
ferred to him. Young Mr. Wallace
said he had no witnesses and the stock
had not been transferred, but. he had
possession of It. Mrs. Wells told him
she didn't think the transaction would
be legal.

A. T. Hale, of New London, a son-
in-law of the late Mr. Wallace. was
then called. He married Miss Hattie
Wallace in 1877. The witness said his
father and Mr, Wallace had been asso-
ciated in partnership in the Watch
Hill House at, Westerly, R. I.. one of
tho hest-known'aummer hotels in the
East. The witness admitted that in
1801 the elder Mr. Wallace had advanc-
ed him $6,000 to embark in business.
The witness had purchased his father’s
share in the Crocker House. New inn-
don. with the money. Mr. Hale told

 

 

othep. details about his father's busi-
ness dealings with the late Mr. Wal-
lace.

The Wallace family for several sum~
more had a' cottage at Pine Point. and.
Mrs. Lineburgh. who lives in Itrldeofi

Expected That it Will be Finish-
ed This Week Detailsvoi
Governor Sleunenberg’s As-
sassination Given Today

 

 

BOISE. Idaho, June i3.~—it now
seems probable that Harry Orchard,
who has laid the foundation for the
case against William D. Haywood. will
be allowed to leave the stand and
make way for another witness by Sat-
urday afternoon. The state will not
take up much time with the redirect
and this means that the re-cross ex-

amination will quickly be disposed of.
Today Orchard will give the detail of
the assassination of former Governor
Steunnenberg. The harrowing tale
that model: crowded court room shud-
der must once more be told, and the
murderer will be obliged to show the
jury how cold blooded and how cruel
were the preparations and the deed
itself. The murdered man's son sits
within a few feet. of Haywood and
facing Orchard. lie watches the wit
ncss closely and during the narration
of the scenes around his home prior
to the murder and on the night when
his father was killed, he shows evi
dunes of great nervousness. The do
tense has not spared Orchard. His
character as a criminal has been delv-
ed into until almost every crime in the
calendar. big and little. has been
brought. home to him. The most re»
markable thing about the man is the
absolute non-chance with Which he
admits the commission of these
crimes.

The plot to kidnap the children of
Orchard's former partner in the Her-
cules mine is looked up..n by the de
tense as a strong proof of the duplici-
ty of the man. The claim of the dc.
tense is that Simpkins discovered the
plot and warned August. i‘aulson.
Paulson has been subpoenaed by ”it.
state. It was shown. however. by the
defense, in crosscxaminntion, that
Paulson lent Orchard 8300 just before
he left. Wallace for Caldwell. shortly
prior to the murder of Bteunnenberg.

The case for the defense, in contra-
diction of the connection of Haywood
with the actual murder of srranae
manta for the murder at Shunnenbers.
is shown by the questions not so as to
bring out evidence to show that Or-
chard reached Wallace planning to kid-
nap i’aulson's children. Falling in
that. he became mverty-stricken anti
committed a burglary. (letting no
proceeds from' this be. robbed a cash
'egistcr. These funds running out.
be borrowed $300 from the man who
had been his partner and who had
become rich from the proceeds of the
mine. a sixteenth share of which Or—
chard has sold for a song and then, en-
vious of the rich man, and angered at
the thought that Steuncnberg had
drivn him, in common with other men,
from the state, he planned the enter-
prise of vengeful assassination. The
defense asserts that Sltnpkins was at
Wallace at the time, in line with his
duties as a member of the executive
board of the Western Federation and
that neither there nor at Caldwoll had
be any direct connection with Orchv
ard's plans.

CONGREGATIONALISTS TO TAKE
ACTION.

 

Concerning the Union of the Denomin-
ations This Evening.

The South Norwalk Congregational

Church has called a meeting for this

evening, at which it will consider and

take a vote upon the question of the
proposed union of the Congregational
denomination with the Methodist Prob
eslant and llnlied Brethren.

There is deep interest in the ques-
tion, as it is one that affects all the
Congregational churches. it will be
decided at. the National Council of
Congregationalists to be held at Cleve-
land next October.

The South Norwalk church will ex-
press its feeling this evening. and pre-
pare a message to be sent to the Na
tional Council, and also to the Fair-
fleld West Consoclatlon.

There is a wide diversity of opinion
upon the question. and none of the
Congregational churches seem to be
entirely unanimous. The meeting this
evening promises to be an interesting
one. as some members of the South
Norwalk church are ardentiy in favor
of the union. while others have already
expressed some doubt or dissent.

Russia‘s contentions regarding the

The Russians declare their inability to

Minister of War Terauchi, last week.
inspected the Japanese strategic posi-

that the relations between the two
nations are not yet on a working ba-

The failure of government railways
and other peaceful methods used in the
past to establish Russian trade or
meet the new condition in Manchuria
has forced Russian vested interested

foreign enterprises which. it is

expected. would constitute a barter

Railroad Commissioners Refuse '
to Sanction Plan of Donnecb
lcul Company to Lay a Track'
Over Barton-Stamford Bridge

 

 

After a very brief hearing at Hart-
ford yesterday the state railroad com-
missioners refused the application of
the Consolidated Railway Company
to permission to run trolley tracks
over the present bridge over the Nero-
ton River at Jacob Miller’s half way

house.

The commissioners did not state
what kind of a structure they prefer.
but will probably inform the company
shortly.

The hearing was largely attended by
people from both the towns of Darlen
and Stamford. Several of the select-
men of both towns were present, sev-
eral lawyers and others. Attorney
lra 0. Gregory. of Norwalk. represent,
ed several big adjoining property own-
ers: Attorney Edward Scofleld, of
Stamford, the town of Barton, and At-
torney Michael Kencaly, the town of
Stamford.

The railroad commissioners were
thoroughly familiar with the situation.
having been over the ground within
three weeks and learning the senti-
ment of the two towns affected, quick-
ly made known their ruling.

General Manager Pundsrford. of the
Consolidated Railway Company. ex-
plained the company's case. He said
the company desires to run a through
trolley service from Norwaik to Bridge
port and from South Norwalk to Stam-
ford. Consequently it was desired to
run the tracks over the bridge in ques-
tion. When the commissioners made
known their decision he addressed the
body and declared that the company
had a right by law to cross the bridge
and objected strenuously to the de-
cision. He was informed that the com-
missioners had already ruled.
