Berlin. July 2s.-The Cologne Gazette
says that several of the powers in
Guiding Germany. have adopted the
standpoint that the evacuation Of Thes-

unless indemnity by Greece is paid or
guaranteed. AS payment of indemnity

and unless some such guarantee is
included in the treaty of peace between

whether Germany viii recommend the

Suspicious Actions of the Arrested Man
Lead the Detectives to Believe He
Is In Communication with
the Guilty Person.

Bridgeport, Conn, July 2S.-The
Bridgeport detectives who are at work
upon the case involving the murder at
Daniels Farms last week of Marcus C.
Nichols, have made an arrest in the
town of Huntington, a small place
about five miles to the northeast Of
Trumbull. They took into custody John
Wickes, not as a principal in the crime.
but as one possibly possessing valua-
bic information
This arrest was made last evening
at the home Of Mrs. Wilbur Bassett in
Huntington, the mother of Wickes, dur
ing an investigation set on foot to To-
cate one Charles Bonai. against whom
some tinge of suspicion has arisen. The
officers, having learned something Of
the doings of Bonai, decided to arrest
him II possible. The police refuse to di-
vulge the most important part of their
evidence, but admit that they have rea-
son to want Bonai, who, they say has
Travelled under several aliases, among
which are the names Mason and Bur
ney.
Bonai is about 25 years Of age and
makes his headquarters at times in
Huntington. Six weeks ago he married
Miss Maggie Wickes, the daughter Of
Mrs. Bassett by her first husband He
lived with his young wife at the home
of his mother-in-law. An investigation
by the police into the character of Bo-
mai showed that he had apparently
no steady occupation. He would leave
Huntington at intervals, and upon his
return would be flush" with money.
Suspected Mans Movements.
After tracing his goings and comings
recently as far as possible the de-
tectives learned that on Sunday last he
visited the distilery and cider mill Of
John Beardsley near the Trumbull
town line. He made some purchases,
and in offering payment he displayed
quite a sum Of money. 1t is further
added that he made the payment in
gold. He then left and has not been in
his usual haunts since. Yesterday De-
tective Arnold went with others to the
Bassett house and tried to find Bonai.
They were informed that he was in
New York. The detective questioned
Wickes. brother-in-lawO of Bonai, rath-
er sharply, and his answers caused the
officer to feel warranted in placing the
man under arrest. Late yesterday aft
ernoOn Wickes was brought to Bridge
port and locked up.
The police state that 1t must not be
understood that they accuse Bonai OF
the murder and robbery but informa-
tion in their possession leads them to
desire his arrest

awaiting instructions. This includes
the Yashlma and the Full, two of the
