" 'Tl-IIE WALLER DYNAMITE CASE. l‘wo Detectives Arrested Charged with Encouruclng Perjury. . Bloomsburg, Pal, ct. 14. -There is a new sensation iii t 5 famous Winter- steen-Knorr-Wallen dynamiting case, caused by the arrest in Reading of Héhry 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. The warrants charge Henry Martz with willful and criminal. solici- tation to commi erjury, and his brother with will! I ornation of per- jury. They are follndéd upon informa- tion given by Emma Wickel SWickert, William V. Riffert and John J. Faust, three of Wintersteen’s most important witnesses. It was suspected by the prosecution that there was a great conspiracy in- volving perjury, and in fact the non— fiict of evidence in the first trial, which resulted in its nullification, was such that there was undOubtedly perjury on 9116 side or the other. The; prosecution now asserts that it has indisputable , evidence of this. From the story obtained from thOse who assisted in the work it appears that several Reading witnesses, who are alleged to have been promised cash to give certain testimony calculated to break down the evidence of the prose- cution,_ 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- torneys. 'A Philadelphia lawyer was sent to ' Beading with plenty of money, and he cultivated the acquaintance of the wo- men who had flgufed 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 partin 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 Wintersteen at Bloomburg. The arrest of the two detectives fol- lowed, and more are expected. ATKINSON JURORS DISAGREE. Five Would Have 7,.Convictcd the Governor’s Wife of Forgery. Glenville, W. Va.., Oct. 14.—The jury in the case of .Mi‘s. 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- victibn and seven for acquittal. They were dismissed. The defendant was continued under l or 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 single piece of paper and afterward cut apart with a. pair of scissors. ' The widow and Owens were jointly indicted upon this evidence. Mrs. Cam- 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. MRS. LANGTRY WINS A FORTUNE.

CANADA'S DEFENCES. Mr. Dilke Thinks Canada. Should Be Better Prepared to Protect Herself. Ottawa, Oct. 14.—Sir Charles Dilke, in a. letter from England, touches upon the subject of the defense of Canada in the event of a war with the United .. tates. He says: ’ “The statement of our military needs, made by the average man, neglects the defense of Canada. We yielded to pressure from the United States in the Venezuelan question. We are .yielding to similar pressure again, and pressure somewhat ungraclously applied, in the rsealing question. There is a war party, or a jingo party, in the United States 11 hich openly avows the intention to humiliate and weaken‘ us, and ulti- mately to drive us into war. There are, it is to be hoped, and perhaps believed, in the United States a majority of peace—loving citizens, who shrink with as much horror as we do from the prospect of a conflict between such powers; but, however anxious we may be fOr peace, and however much we may work to keep it, yet we cannot close our eyes to the obvious facts; and one of these facts is that circum- stances might occur under which We should, by no fault of our own, find ourselves at war with the United States, with Canada calling upon us to defend her.” The Judge Wouldn’t Have Them in the Courtroom During 1:. Speech. Chicago, Oct. 14.—The first plea to the jury on behalf of Adolph L. Luetgert was made yesterday'by the junior counsel for the defense, Albert Phalen. Luetgert’s two children were brOught into court, and the prisoner held his youngest boy on his lap and fondled him ostentatiously. Assistant State’s Attorney McEwen objected to the cthio, bition, and the children were ordered removed by the Court. Mr. Vincent ob- jected to the Court’s ruling. ' “There can be but one object in' the defendant’s action,” pursued the Judg 7'2, “and that is to excite sympathy.” , “I except to the Cou-rt’s' remarks,” said Mr. Vincent, and the incident was over, but the buzz of comment lasted some time longer. One of the jurors smiled when the sausage-maker ca.- ressed his children. Mr. Phelan’s plea was not oratorical. He scored the State’s witnesses and declared that per- jury had been freely committed to con— vict Luetgert. He resumed his argu- ment this morning. 10 TO 7 ON VAN WYCK. Lots of Money to Wager at That Odds on the Tammany Candidate. New York, Oct. 14.—Offers to bet upon Van Wyck, conditioned upon none of the candidates for the Mayor- alty of Greater New York withdraw- mg, aggregated a large amount yester- day on the New York Stock Exchange. E. B. Talcott offered $15, 000 at odds of 10 to 7 on Van Wyck. He wanted to bet it either in whole or in amounts of $1, 000 to $700. He made one bet of $1, 000 to $700, E. F. Patchen putting up the latter amount on the field. Later in the day E. L. Norton, of Henry Allen & Co., offered to bet $5, 000 against ’53 000 that Van Wyck would be elected. M. B. Mendham made a bet of $500 to $350 that Low would not be elected. E. ..T Stachelberg. of M. Stachelberg & Co., offered in Wall street yesterday to bet $10. 000 to $7,000 on Van Wyck, :cnditional on Tracy' s non-withdrawal. ENGLAND AND BIMETALISM. American and French Proposals. London, Oct. 14. —~The Daily News says it understands that the Cabinet will, on Saturday, definitely reply to the American and French bimetallic proposals. In anticipation of any action by the Government a strongly worded memo- rial is being signed by London bankers, discount brokers and merchants against the Bank of England holding one- -fifth of its note reserve in silver. The memorial earnestly deprecates any interference with the existing stan- dard, and is especially emphatic against any change in the Indian currency without a full discussion in Parliament. The indications are that a memorial so extensively and influentially signed will check the tendencyof the Cabinet to tamper with the monetary systems of Great Britain and India. 10,000 Kisses in 10 nos... Berlin, Oct. 14. ——- The Munchener Nachrichten records the experience of a young German who undertook to es- tablish a kissing record. He gained his sweetheart’s consent, the terms being that he should take ten thousand kisses from her lips in ten hours, with a brief interval for refreshment every half hour. Umpires were appointed and the attempt to make the record began. The young man scored 2, 000 kisses in the first hour and 1,000 in the second. He had reached 750 in the third hour when his lips were paralyzed and he became unconscious. a Package Containing $194,000 Missing. Chicago, Oct. 14. —A package contain- ing $14, 000 has been lost between Omaha and Denver. The money was sent by registered package by a bank in Chi- cag‘o to a financial institution in the IWest.
