MRS. MARGARET II. WELLS ALI
LEGEs EMBEZZLEMENT AGAINST
MAHLON B. FOSTER.
Mrs. Margaret II. Wells, through her
attorney, Harry EmmOns, has sworn
out, in Magistrate Sasse's court, a war
rant for the arrest Of Mahlon B. Foster.
She charges him with embezzlement.
This action was taken yesterday after
noon, but the warrant has not yet been
served. An Evening Journal reporter
called at The magistrates office this
morning and asked him II 1t would be
served this afternoon. He said he
thought not, as he had received instruc-
tions TO hold II in allegiance.
1t is understood that the controversy
between Mrs Wells and Foster
hinges on a note for S240, which, il is
said, Foster got from her with the
understanding that he was TO give her
all of the proceeds with the exception
OF $40. II is said that instead Of doing
this he kept all but $50. which he gave
her. Foster, II is understood denies
that ehere was anything crooked in the
transaction as far as hewasconcerned

In the Court OF General Sessions yes

round guilty OF stealing 2,575 pounds OF
iron from the Diamond State Iron Com
pany, and was sentenced to twenty
lashes and two years Imprisonment. Ab
the trial of Higgins last week the jury
disagreed. Yesterday afternoon the
regular panel Of jurors was exhausted.
and Sheriff Finn selected Janitor
Thomas l.. Scott and Fireman John F.
Campbell, OF the Court House force, to
serve as Jurors
Joseph Kelley, Samuel Smithfeld and
Chester Clifford were found guilty Of
robbing Thomas Harrington and Wes-
ley M. Wing near Edge Moor on Sep
tember 7, and each was sentenced to
undergo six months Imprisonment.
This mornings session Of the Court
OF General Sessions was devoted to
hearing the bastardy case against Clar-
ence G. Vail, of near State Road, the
prosecuting witness being Annie M.
! Wolf, a young woman OF ST. Georges.
Attorney General White and ]. L. VIII
! lis conducted the prosecution. T. Bay
ard Heisel and Walter II. Hayes repre-
sented the accused young man, who is
the son OF highly respectable parents.
Miss Wolf swore that Vail was tho
father OF the child, which was born on
January 3, 1897 Members Of her fam
| Ply were put ON the stand. They testi-
fed that Vail kept company with her
for a year OF two and that he was in
her company during March and April,
1886.
Vail, being sworn, said that he did
not see her during that period, and that
she had been intimate with three other
men.
William Hutchinson, drug clerk In
Philadelphia, but who formerly lived in
st. Georges, swore that he had been in
innate with Miss Wolf on ten or twelve
different occasions, and that he had
voluntarily come to Delaware to testify
to tho fact He said that he and Vail
both belonged to the Odd Fellows and
United American Mechanics. His re-
lations with Miss Wolf covered March
and April 1896.
After he had testified he left the court
room, doubtless seeing that he had
b fallen considerably in the respect of
everyone about him.
p Howard E Wright, or st. Georges,
was another patriot who came to the
;. front to divide with young Vail respon-
n sibillty for the girls condition. He also
i told his story as though he felt heart
lily ashamed OF himself for accepting
r favors from the girl and then swearing
away her character
The case was being argued when the
y noon recess was taken
