"White Cap" Cases - Prosecutor
scanlan NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. News.
. Indianapolis Journal.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
ANDERSON, Ind. Nov. 2L--There was a
sensation In the White Cap cases yesterday
evening that Is causing much comment in
the legal circles OF Anderson and among
all those that are In any way. interested In
the trials. The attorneys for the defense
have been threatening for several days to
spring a surprise on the court. and chose
last evening as the most opportune time.
After the State had concluded its testi-
mony against Samuel Clark for burglary
the attorneys for the defense, Messrs. ID.
W. Wood and w. s. Ellis. went to the
county clerks office and filed an affidavit
against Heron Richardson, "Hamp" Rich
ardson and al" stinson. charging the three
with the crime for which Clark was be-
ing tried. Warrants were at once issued
and placed in the hands OF Sheriff Starr,
who went after the persons named. and
"Hamp" Richardson was soon in custody.
When Prosecutor Scanlan learned what
had been done he at once informed Sheriff
Starr that the procedure was illegal, and,
after serving the same notice on the clerk,
the warrants were withdrawn and Rich
ardson released. The warrants recited that
information had come to the prosecutor
that justified the issue of the warrants,
and that ii was his will that they be served.
The prosecutor, however. denied the state
ment, as he was vigorously pushing the
case against Clark for the crime, and the
success OF this move would have the effect
OF killing his case. The defense is making
a night on Richardson and his son. saying
that they are the real criminals, and that
there exists a conspiracy to make others
bear the penalty of their crimes. On ac-
count of this they undertook TO file af1da-
Wits against the Richardson's and Stinson
themselves. IL Is alleged that the defense
Will. at the opening Of court Monday morn
ing, make a motion before Judge Bundy.
before whom the case is being tried, that
a new prosecutor be appointed. and through
him file the affdavits. The whole matter
was roundly denounced by Prosecutor Scan
Ian. who says that he will be able TO ex-
pose the whole plot, and that the gun was
hid in Richardson's place by one Of the de-
~tectives employed by the defense. No event
OF recent years has stirred the people as
this trial IL doing, and there is much con-
lecture as TO what action Judge Bundy will
pursue from now on in the case.

not been more sparing. Full suites OF gems
have been ordered for the Countess after
designs especially prepared by the noble
husband-pearls. rubies. diamonds. emeraids
all IL the most superb array. One string
OF pearls alone represents a sum OF money
which would have purchased a good-sized
modern house-aye. and furnished II. too.
for that matter. Nor Is this all. Every
day the Count accompanies his wife to the
shops, co1sults. advises and directs in the
selection, not alonue of household articles.
but the more feminine appointments OF the
wardrobe.
To all branches alike he gives equal at
tention: purchasing a peignoir with the
same discriminating judgment which he be-
slows on a piece of Gobelin tapestry or a
service of Sevres. Under these ministra-
tons the Countess, so my informant says.
In becoming a thorough Parisenne-dainti.y
or splendidly attired as the occasion may
demand. and at all times arrayed in clothes
that are at once the envy and despair OF
her less lucky sisters. At the same time
the Count does not neglect his duties as a
man Of fashion, but attends his "cercle'
(as the clubs are called, playing baccarat
with a noble Indifference TO results born or
the knowledge that his wife's dot has not
yet been exhausted. The Parisians, dazzled
by this expenditure, are not yet asking
Themselves how long IT will keep up. There
must be millions still to spend. and. so they
cheerfully argue Powder Puff will not
do them the injustice of spending 1t else
where. Be this as il may. there are great
doings in Paris over the going 10 house,
keeping of this interesting couple.

BACK GAS.
Matter That Will he investigated by
state Supervisor Leach.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
KOKOMO. Ind. Nov. 24.-State Natural
Gas Supervisor j. c. Leach Is engaged in
the preparation of his annual report and
proposes to make 1t the most complete n
accurate ever submitted. giving much infor-
nation concerning the Indiana gas product
not heretofore collated or published. The
opinion OF prominent gas men that the
first cold snap of the winter will catch the
majority OF the cities and towns short of
gas IL not fully shared by Mr.. Leach. He
thinks with proper service there should be
plenty of gas In all the towns and plenty
for factories besides. 1t has come to the
ears of the Inspector that some companies
are purposely s~tinting their patrons BY
holding back part of the natural supply
that the consumers are entitled to. This
will be looked after by Professor Leach.
On all complaints of shortage by consumers
he Will take measurements Of the gas sup
ply. both at the point OF consumption and
at the wells in the field. and II there Is
any holding back" he will at once detect
the deception and prosecute the companies.
During the most critical period of the win
ter Inspector Leach will make a thorough
personal inspection OF all the gas supply
systems in the State. extending the investi-
cations to the source Of supply I'm the fields.
He proposes that the companies shall give
their patrons the best possible service.

Tventy-Seven Thousand Victims Of
Starvation Counted This m
Evils of PeIagic Sealing.

WASHINGTON, Nov. Authorization
reaches here that the revenue cutter Bear,
the last government vessel TO leave Boring
sea. has just brought down some startling
evidence of the effect OF pelagic sealing on
the Alaskan seal heard, which frequent
the Pribylof, or Seal island. In accord
ance with the findings of the Paris arbitra-
ton court, schooners are now permitted TO
hunt seals in Boring sea with spears in
a zone sixty miles around the islands from
the LIST of August. 1t was thought that
combining sealing schooners to spears and
reducing the season TO practically five or
six weeks would stop the slaughter in
Behring sea and allow the herd to recup-
crate. This year not less than sixty-one
scnooners began hunting the Boring sea
Aug. / and captured nearly 1900 pelts.
about 50 per cent. of which were females.
This does not show the full extent of the
injury done. The seal pups are dependent
on their mothers milk for the first four or
five months OF their existence, and without
it must suffer starvation. Acting under in
instructions Of their respective superiors
of the North American Commercial Com
pany made a count or the dead pups found
i 4, I scbo s,osT OF had tne Left Sea i5a wnen Tb ane census sesIs
was just completed when the Bear left.
The number reached twenty-seven thou-
sand, and does not include those in the last
stages of starvation. The same condition
prevailed last year. but the count was made
with less exactness on account of snow. il
Is said that the actual pecuniary loss to
the United States and the commercial world
by this needless waste of animals will reach
hundreds of thousands of dollars.
The United States, which mas never al
lowed the molestation of breeding grounds
or killing of females on land, made an eff
fort last year TO stay the slaughter going
on by limiting the land killing TO fifteen
thousand males. 1t is questionable IL in
ports of treasury officials further
restraint will be exercised, especial
ly as a request made last January
by the United States to Great Britain tor
greater protection to the seals has been
practically ignored. 1t was the attempt
made by the United States TO stop the bar
barity practiced on the seals by Selling the
schooners that subjected the government To

rejected last year by Congress.
