MEDIA, March A.-The Grand Jury
yesterday heard the witnesses for the
Commonwealth and returned true
bill In the case of Henry L. Schmidt
and Caroline, his VILE charged with
the murder OF EInma Plitzenmeyer,
Mrs. Schmidts maiden sister, on the
night of December 4th last in Chester.
District Attorney Hannum sent nearly
all tho witnesses for tho Common
wealth before the Grand Jury, and, it
is said, the vote for a true bill was
almost unanimous.
The medical experts, DR. Formal, of
Philadelphia, and DIR. j. /. Forwood,
OF Chester, upon whom the Common
wealth's cAse largely depends, were
present, and also Coroner Il. Nj. Bull
lock, who was the first to come TO the
opinion, after seeing the dead body,
sel{jnilieted. Neither Schmidt nor
his Wife were brought over from the
jail, but their relations apprised them
of the jury's finding late this evening.
They expressed no surprise, as they
had no hope of escape except by trial
in Court, where they can give THEN
own side of the case,
District attorney Hannum will com
mence the trial of the Schmidts on the
Esd instant. The commemorative
theory is that Mrs Schmidt killed her
sister in jealous rage on coming
home after the ball and finding
her in the company OF her hus
band. The evidence OF this however,
is so far purely circumstantial, and
unless more evidence is given to sup
port it than that presented at the
habeas corpus hearing, it is doubtful
about conviction being secured.
Tho counsel for the Schmidts decline
to say whether or not they will place
Henry Schmidt or his wife on thu
witness stand in their own defence
The blood stains found on the cloth
ing of the accused figure promi
nently in the case, and II tn,
accused are placed ON the stand theil
explanation and manner OF testifyinl
may have great deal to do with tn
jury's verdict.

TnE DENocEATIo Levy Court last
spring did not accept the delinquent
Lists Of the city OF Wilmington until
the 3lst day OF March the last day on
which they could take action on than,
notwithstanding the fact that they
were presented - the Court on the
first Tuesday OF March. According to
law they lay five days for the inspee-
ton of the public, after which time
they could have been accepted, and
those returned us delinquents would
have had some chance OF getting re-
assessed the present March. But this
plan did not suit Levy Courtman Wier
the boss of tho Levy Court, and his
man McCloskey. IL was more to the
interests OF the Democrats to accept
the delinquent list the last day of
March, and thegeby dlsfranchise Re-
publieans returned us delinquents two
years instead of one. This is what we
would call decidedly low, mean poll
tics on II perfect level with the politi-
cal practices of Mr.. Wier.

CAMDEN, N. j., March 5.-Hancis
Lingo WAS yesterday PLACED on trial In
the Court House for the murder OF
Mrs. Annie Miller, near Morchautville,
last September, but he appeared as I'M
concerned as the least interested of the
many spectators. He certainly did not
evince half the interest as did Chalkley
LeConey. who sat among the specta-
tors on one of the front benches.
Lingo came into the court room
smiling and left at the close OF the
afternoon session apparently in per-
feet content. During both sessions he
sat behind his counsel unIpoved by
any phase Of the proceedings and most
The time with a perceptible smile on
his lips.
1t seemed as IL John Miller, the
honest-faeed husband of the murdered
woman, was the person being tried for
the high crime. For one hour and u
half eX-Judge John W. Westeott,
senior counsel for Lingo, assailed him
with sharp questlonings as to his
movements on the day OF the murder.
He WAS asked whether he sent his wife
away on the 25th day of September to
Moorestown, and why he was not more
alarmed when he did not find her
home at the expected time that after
noon. He was interrOgated very
closely as to his many trips to the
Merchantville Station that night to
meet his wife, and, upon learning
afterward that she had entered
Matehesons woody track i'll the after
noon, why he had resorted to such pc
euliar methods of search for the muir
dered body.
This rapid cross-fre of questions ant
replies annoyed John Miller, and III
suffered more or less confusion. WheI
eX-)udge Westcott pressed him hard al
TO the kind OF dress she wore on th'
fetal day and when he first saw thu
blood-stained garments he filled up
Sometimes the questions had to be pu
TO him two or three times. In fey
instances he missed entirely the inten
OF the questions. This was what tn,
opposing counsel wanted. 1t CAV,
them a chance to throw suspicion o!
John Miller before the minds OF tn
, Jurors and revealed what would b
the most important feature of thei
defense AT last the husband was ques
toned on so many things that appear
ed TO havo no relevance TO the case i
hand that Judge Garrison raped wit
the gavel. The Court, he snid, did no
see the relevancc OF some of the ques
lions, aud asked tho defense to kee
within the pale of the case. In the tes
timony of City SuryeyorIeyi Farnhar
of Camden, LingO's lawyers built u
, also this method of defense.

The most exciting election ever held
in Canada was no doubt held there to-
day and the result will be as interest
ing 70 the people Of tile United States
as to the people OF Canada. No matter
which way it goes the United States
will be the gamer, and if Sir John Nc
Donald's Canadian Tory party gets no
more than a mere majority, the vic
tory will be equivalent To defeat of
tie administration. II is now charged
that Sir John has matte an alliance
with the Canadian Pacific Railroad by
which tine Dominion is to saddle sG5,
100000 debt OF the road. The election
to-day will decide whether the Canadian

The Democrats will have to 60
cautiously in counting New York State
dead sure for their party in 1892 since
they have heard the result OF the local
spring elections held in that State last
Tuesday. With one or two exceptions
the Republicans have recovered all the
towns which they lost in the last gem
eral election, have gained several
towns like Newburg, Middletown and
Amsterdam, which have been inclined
to vote Democratic majoritieS re-
Gently, and for the first time in the
history OF Rome have elected a Re-
publican Mayor and the entire city
government. The Republicans have
also redeemed Rochester, where
through unfortunate factional troubles
the Democrats have been in the as
cendancy for two years. This ali goe,
to show that there is no diminution O
confidence in the Republican party
and TINT Democratic ascendaucy il
that State last fall was accidental.
