WOULD KIDHG2 HsR

DETECTIVE MVEY HOME FROM
FuulsCO-PLANs TO KIDNAp
MRS. BOTulIN
State Detective Bernard ]. Mcvov
arrived here yesterday afternoon from
San Francisco, where he had eon,. r,
bring Mrs. Botkin to this state on ;he
charge OF numbering Mrs. John p. crn-
ming, OF Dover.
Mr.. McVey left here on August y
last for California with evidence IN his
possession which the Delaware
authorities hoped would be strong
enough to warrant the California au-
thorities in granting extraditlon pa
pers for the suspected woman. The
Supreme Court OF California decided
however. that Mrs. Botkin could not
be brought to this state for trial. as
she was not a fugitive from justice,
having never been here. So the detec-
tive was compelled to leave without
the woman.
The detective would not discuss the
case in detail, but stated that he. in
connection with the California au-
thorities had been hard at work ON the
evidence in the case. Governor Budd
compelled them to present all the evil
dence they had and also insisted that
It should be published. This was done
and the requisitlon was granted. Mr.,
McVey speaks i'm the highest terms OF
Chief OF Police Lees.
The detective had contrived upon a
scheme to get Mrs. Botkdn out OF the
state as soon ais requisitlon papers
were granted. and before further action
could be taken. He expected the pa
pers would have been granted in the
morning, and he had planned to take
Mrs Botluln away the same might He
proposed to sail around Cape Horn
with her, and to carry this out a tug
lay waiting in the harbor all day 70
convey his prisoner and himself 10 a
swift vessel hound for New York, which
was lying farther out in the stream
land ready to sail at a moments no
tice. His plan was frustrated. how
ever. as the papers were not granted
until the next day. Since then he has
[ been tied up by legal proceedings, and
2 he never has had a chance to carry
Mrs. Botkin of.
McVey states that Mrs. Botkin's at
torneys claim they are defending her
out OF charity. as they have never re.
- ceived a cent for their work. Report
p ers gave the authorities great concern
as they kept dogglng the officers II
- every step they made, and II wal
= sometimes necessary to drive som
II miles away from a point they desires
It to reach b. throw the newspaper me-
II of the track. McVey was met 20
T. miles east OF Frisco by reporters.
The climate did not agree with tn
detective and he has lost thirty pound
since away. He will hold a confer
ence with Attorney-General White 10
D day and will start back again in a few
y days to attend the trial, which Is Sc
for December 5.

Seaford, Nov. 1O.-The election pass
cd of here very quietly. The enthu-
siasm, confusion and back-alley con-
erltatiors which usually characterize
an election were missing. The Demo-
Gratis were treated to quite a surprise,
as their majority Of eighty-five was
over 100 below their usual number. An
extra large cOlored vote was polled.
The grand interest the colOred breth-
rem are taking in the welfare OF this
ssate would probably cause even de-
crepit lobster to wink the right optic
and strike a clog dance from heartfelt
amusement. The vote was as follows:
Democratic, 371; Republican, 5S; Union

SENATOR GRAY'S COMMENT

HE DOES NOT BELIEVE THAT EN-
PANSION ENTERED INTO THE
ELECTION.
A dispatch from Paris says: Senator
Gray, referring TO the successful cam
paign OF Colonel Theodore Roosevelt
in the contest for the governorshrip Of
New York, said. THE returns show
the result OF a very hard battle in
wh!ch all the vehemence Of the sue
ceaful candidate and his splendid mill
tary record appealed TO the military
spirit, which is still so alive and po-
tential in consequence OF a war so re-
cent and flagrant and not yet techni'
cally ended"
Touching upon the general result o.
the elections the senator said; "The re
suit in the country Is too much II
doubt to warrant any expression o
oplnion. Ii does not seem TO one a
this distance as though the policy o
expansion entered at all into the cam
paign."
