at the instance Of Celia Saith. vile OF
b. +. Smith, travelling photographer.
Dnbinsky was hustled into jail and
kept there until this morning, when be
was brought before Squire Jones for Z
preliminary trial.
The whole affair looked so much like
blackmail TO the citizens generally, who
knew Dubinsky rs square dealing
| honest man, that the universal opinion
was that there was something and
somebody behind the affair, which was
openly stigmatized. before the trial, as
| an outrage.
When the arrest became known on
the streets, il created quite 50 excite
ment, and the Justices Office was liter
ally packed with people, many Of whom
| looked for q sensational sequel
The prosecuting witness, Rose Myrtle
Seeley, good looking young girl OF 10,
testified TO having made the acqnaint-
ance OF Dublnsky about the 10Th OF
July. She said that they took buggy
ride on the nth Of that month, aud
that while out In the country Dublnsky
handed her small bottle and asked her
to inhale its contents. The girl then
claimed that from that time until an
| hour or so later she was unconscious.
She would not swear that Dubinsky
outraged her, claiming 10 know moth
ing OF what he did during the time In
which she said she was unconscious.
She admitted on cross-examInatlon that
they had been familiar frequently
afterward. aHd said that Dublin
! sky had promised TO marry her
Her story was so defective In It's details
that IL was evident there was somc-
thing else behind 1t, and II was en-
deavored to briug out the facts.
When Mrs. Smith, the mother OF the
girl, was put on the stand she confessed
that she was the wife OF b. +. Smith,
who is now In jail charged with stealing
logs from the property oelonging 70
Cashier Wolf OF the Second National
Bank. She admitted that she tried TO
get Dubinsky to 90 on his bond and
that she had sent Jim Hutchinson 10
him to try TO advise him 10 do 80.
Hutchinson went to see Dubnsky and
Dnblnsky again refused. The wo.
man also admitted that she
had tried To get Dubinsky 10
marry the girl, and admitted that
she had threatened to shoot him II
he did not consent 10 do so by last
night. 1t was clear now. without hser-
i mn word from the deiense, that tno
whole affair was blackmalling scheme

DnbInsky demed the chloroiorm
charge and admitted that be and tho
girl were familiar. He said that Jim
Hutchinson came to him yesterday ana
asked him TO go on Smiths bond, that
when he refused Hutchinson inllmAted
trouble.
The Justice discharged Dublnsky
from custody after he gave the opinion
that there was nothing in 10, except
strong probability OF blackmail.
DubInsky's release was received with
noisy approval by the big crowd OF peo-
pie present.
The women will probably be arrested
for ansttempt to blackmail.
