PIrTsBuRa, April 12.-Yesterday after
noon the United States authorities re-
ceived information that is to be made
against DR.. George H. Marshall, who at
tempted to blsckmail Mary Anderson, on
. charge Of sending scurrilous matter
through the mails. Marshall was arrest
ed last evening and is now in Jail. He
confessed he wrote the letters to DR..
Griffin, Miss Anderson's stepfather, in
which the price for the suppression of the
photographs of the actress was fixed at
$40, 000, but he attempts to explain that he
had no bad motives himself. '.About the
middle of last December" said he. "a
package was handed in at my house at
Mount Washington. / opened 1t and
found . letter signed Faith, Hope and
Charity three pictures and q note re-
questing me to write Miss Anderson and
ask the sum of $40, 900 for the pictures.
Well, / didn't know what to do about it,
but 1 wrote to Miss Anderson, saying that
l had some things that were OF value to
her. / wrote twice, and DR.. Griffin re-
piled to the second one, asking me to send
the pictures. / replied by saying that l
would place the whole thing in his hands;
that / knew nothing about it, and l would
forward the pictures. / did SO. and about
the middle Of February 1 received a letter
from DR.. Griffin, saying that he had
placed the whole matter in the hands OF
the Chief Of Police. That's all ! heard Of
the matter until saw the statements in
the papers to-day"
"Have you any idea who the principals
were?"
"Well no. I have an idea they are Ok.
~convicts. When l was in the penitcntiary,
years ago, / heard some vague ~allusion
that there would be a big scheme some
day. / suppose this is it,"
DR.. Marshall was released only . few
months ago, having served five years for
malpractice committed on o beautiful
girl named Alice Herman, who died from
the operation. He had assumed to prac-
tice medicine, and was waiting on Q pa
tent when arrested. The pictures which
we're used in the attempt to blackmail
Miss Anderson were those Of some nude
women. The face and head of some Of
Miss Anderson's small photographs were
cut out and pasted on the nude pictures,
and from this q new photograph was
taken, lesving the distinct impression that
the whole WAS a counterfeit presentment

Marshall's explanation Of his connection
with the affair is considered . very trans
parent one. His chances for going to the
penitentiary for . long period are excel
lent. Marshall was released to-day. He
| gave bail In the sum Of 81, 400 for his ap-
pearance before the United States Com
missioner on the 18th.
