Italy upon Colombia for the settlement OF
the CAutti claim has not yet been complied
made towards an adjustment, there is a pos

aspect through action by the Italian fleet
sent to demand settlement. Some days
ago Colombia made an offer to settle If the
Italian fleet left Colombian waters, thus re-

acting under pressure. But 1t is understood
that the Italian government pointed out that
the Colombian government had been in
formed of the purpose Of the fset on arriy al
at Cartagena, thus giving them an oppor-
tunity of settling before the fleets arrival.
1t is understood the Italian admiral will give
due courtesy to Colombia if 1t should be
asked. For that reason it Is said the adm raj
fixed a period of twenty days during which
the claim should be paid. Whether this is
an ultimatum could not be stated, but, in

Held for the Grand Jury. Charged
With Pension Fraud.

Fauu.
The pension office has just recAived the
report of the special examiner sent out to
investigate the case of DIR. Amos G Wood
ruff of Oakland City. Ind. According to
the report. Woodruff is a practicing physi-
clan and a pension attorney, and his arrest

ing forged affidavits filed by him in the
claim of Eliza SHELTON, widow OF r. A.
Shelton, late a member of Company b. LIST
Indiana Cavalry. The pension office has
been suspicious of this man for some time.
and recent Investigations corroborated its
suspicious. The case upon which Woodruff
was tried before Commissioner Workman al
Evansville. Ind. hinged upon certain pa
pers purported to have been executed be-
fore Rev. w. w. Richardson of that city.
Ii was developed at the hearing that the
pastor on the dates mentioned IN the jurats
was out Of town, and the pension examiner
says Woodruff admitted he had made
practice of forging Richardson's name to
pension papers for three or four years.
claiming that Richardson had authorized
him to sign his name when he was absent
from the city. This Richardson denied.
He said further that Woodruff had gouged
his name out Of a notary seal and had
affidavits to indicate that the affidavit had
been sworn to before that person.
The case was lald before the district at
torney at Indianapolis for prosecution. lhe
district attorney himself having been called
to Colorado. the special examiner was dep
utzed to represent the government at the
hearing. Woodruff. II is stated. admitted
his guilt and the commissioner held him in
81 800 bail to await the action of the grand
jury.

Dead

Cleveland, March "a man named
Frank Bochder rushed up to Lieut..
Schmunk and Patrolman Gill, who
We're standing on the corner of Super
ior and Seneca streets to-day, and in
breathless excitement said he had just
made an attempt to commit suicide.
He was but half dressed and was trem-
bling violently. He added that his
nerve finally deserted him and he gave
up the attempt. Bochder said that he
and a woman, whom he called Mrs.
Stabe had agreed to die together. She
took carbolic acid and he took NOR
phine. They retired after having
turned on the gas. Then he said his
nerve failed him and he fed. The
officers went to the Lake Shore House
and found the woman dead Bochder
was locked up.
1t was subsequently learned that the
right name of the man is Frank Stad-
leman. The woman was Mrs. Emma
Stabb. The couple came to Cleveland
Monday night from Akron, where the
woman's husband lives. The police
are inclined to believe the story of the
suicide as related by Stadleman.
