HARD AFTER JOHNSON.
His Wife Makes Serious Charges
Against Him.

Special to the Globe.
SEATTLE, Wash, June 20.-Attorneys
Keefer and Brown have filed an answer
brought by c. K. Johnson, Of st. Paul,
against his wife, Emma Johnson, and
the facts set forth in the answer bear
out the statements which were brought
to the knowledge of Judge Lichtenberg
when the case was called for trial on
May IS, and on which the court
intimated very strongly that johnson
should be bound over to answer
the charge of perjury. Mrs. Johnson
and her child live in Sauk Center, Mimi.
The summons returned showed that the
service on Mrs. johnson had been per-
sonal. The testimony produced at the
first trial by Johnson was of suspicious
character, and Judge Lichtenberg said
that the allegation in the complaint was
a serious one, and he did not propose to
blast young Woman'S reputation on
any such evidence. Mole positive proof
would have to be submitted before a
divorce would be grauted. The case
was then continued. The answer, which
was filed to-day, and which is sworn to by
Mrs. Johnson, admits the alleged acts
of inidelity, which took place more
than two years ago. Since then her
husband has forgiven her, and the
couple have lived together as man and
wife. He secured the service of the
summons by informing his wife that he
needed it in order to have the suit dis
missed. The answer also states that
they have lived together as man and
wife up to January, 1891. She makes a
counter charge of infidelity, and swears
that he came to Washington in Octo-
Der, 1890, for the express purpose of
getting a divorce, and since then he
has visited at her own home, and their
relations have been as those of husband
and wife

DEVILS LAKE, n. D., June 20.-The
case of The State VS.. Agnes Baldwin,
for the murder of Jack Kinney, was
submitted to the jury Thursday night,
after ten days trial. There is no
agreement yet, except that the jury re-
turned verdict of manslaughter in the
third degree, and recommended her to
the mercy of the court. The court re-
fused to accept such verdict. for the
reason that there is no such crime un-
der our law as manslaughter in the
third degree. The defense claims that
as the degree is lower than the lowest
degree of manslaughter as recognized
by the law of this state, the verdict was
equivalent to not guilty. One juror has
taken sick. There are no present pros
poets of an agreement.
