McVey refused to disclose the amount

ware authorities had secured against
Mrs. Botkin. He referred all the news
paper men to Chief Lees. He would not
say whether or not any evidence had been

Personally l would have no hesitation

ion. The case is entirely in the hands of
the local Chief of Police, and 1t would
be discourteous in me to act contrary to
his wishes. The Delaware authorities de-
pend on the San Francisco Police Depart
ment to ferret out the criminal, and l
shall be guided by Chief Lees wishes in
the matter Of interviews.
I'm the East we have a different mthod.
There everything the police secure in a
criminal case is given to the newspapers.
The system of putting a prisoner in
Jail and not disclosing a particle of evil
the trial begins has been abolished. Some
time ago read in a New York paper a
statement by the District Attorney of
that city that the old secret system had
been done away with and that the public
would be informed from day to day in
regard to criminal cases.
This is only fair to the accused per-
son, and the public is entitled to know
what Its servants are doing" concluded
Detective McVey.

Here the Death Gift to
Mrs. Dunning.
The Prosecution Will Use the Grand Jury as
an instrument With Which to Obtain
Necessary Testimony.

dictment should be found It would inter
fere IN no way with the extradition Of
Mrs Botkin. Inc more serious allega-
ton Of murder would take precedence. In
this way Chief Lees hopes to assist the
authorities Of Dover.
AS already indicated the only material
evidence in the case is that supplied by
John P. Cumming, the husband of one
of the murdered women. Dunning de-
tiers were written by Mrs. Botkin. OF
the address on the box Of poisoned candy
and the note in the box he ventures no
opinion. -: -
There is very little doubt that Dun
nings testimony will be shaken by his
own shameless admission that he deserted
a lovable wife and child for the COM
pany and daily association of drunken
women. The defense will not forget that
Dunning squandered the money stolen
from employers: upon women who made
the "tenderloin'' their home. When the
husband appears on the stand as an ac-
cuser OF Mrs Botktn or of any one else
he will find that he is called upon to
defend himself quite as much as to ae-
cuse. Yet his testimony is the only vital
element of fact that has yet entered into
the case. The prosecution views this SIT
uation with sincere regret, and effort and
energy are being devoted TO gather evil
dence independent OF what the husband
may say or do.
The quest will be continued as long and
as persistently as possible. This city as
well others In the State are being ran
sacked for clews. Every witness will be
closely questioned and when Mr.. Botkin
is placed on trial for her life all that may
be done Will have been accomplished.

McVey says that Cunning positively
and unhesitatingly declared that the
anonymous letters received by his wife
were written by Mrs. Botkin and that the
note Enclosed within the candy box was
written by the same hand.
Immediately after Cummings return to
Dover from Porto Rico Detective McVey
went to him with two of the ANONYMOUS
letters. Dunning examined them closely
for several minutes and then said, with
an information of surprise:
Where did you get those letters?"
Your wife received them from San
Francisco"
'DunningtSthen told me-" said McVey
that he had been led to believe that Mrs
Louise Seeley was the author of the let
tiers. He said his wife had sent a similar
letter to him Whine he was in Salt Lake
and that he had sent it to Mrs. Botkin ir
San Francisco. According to Cunning
Mrs. Botkin wrote to him saying that
Mrs Seeley had written the letter.
The letter Dunning received from his
wife was only a copy. She kept the origi-
nal and 1t never left her possession. He
was startled when handed the original.
