KIBNDICS CONFESSION.
The Lancaster Counterfeiter Turns
States Evidence. ,.......
AN ALLEGED soHHNE TO BR1BE.

Kendig Declares That E1-District At
tornsy Ingham Was to Receive Three
Thousand Dollars M onth For "Pr0-
tection'' For Eighteen Months.
Philadelphia, April pa most SEN
sational revelation Of the details of the
alleged conspiracy to bride United
States secret service operatives in con-
nection with the great counterfeitins
plot was made yesterday at the hear
ing of Ellery p. Ingham. former Uni
ted States district attorney, and Har-
yey X. hewitt, former assistant dis
trict attorney, by William L. Kendig,
one Of the principals in the plot, who
made q long confession in which he
implicated Mr.. Ingham.
The witness was marvelously self
possessed, and never was ratified for a
moment. In repartee with the law
yers he Joined, and even made laugh
ing replies to Mr.. Shields, who is at
torney for Ingham. He avowed that
Mr.. Ingham had proposed reaching
Secret Service Agent McManus with q
bride through an intimate friend, Rich
ard J. Lennon, but falling In securing
an interpediary to reach Lennon, he
declared, SO the witness said, that he
could get at McManus through high
official, intimating that he meant Dis
trict Attorney Beck.
It was eventually agreed, according
to the testimony, that the counterfeit
ers should pay Mr.. Ingham 5000 a
month for protection, which, 1t was
said, the conspirators wanted only for
IS months or two years, at the end Of
which the principals hoped to leave
the country.
So far into details did the evidence
60 as to show an alleged plan of Mr.
1ngham, in the event Of his death, to
continue the arrangement for payment
Of money to the parties to be bribed,
through the agency Of his wife, who
was to entertain the idea that the
money was to be used in speculation.
These parties were known by num-
bers, ri, 2 and g." Agent McManus
was mo. L." Agent Burns mo. 2" and
the person who paid them the money
mo. g." mo. 8" was unknown to Ken
dig. Money was alleged to have been
paid twice to the secret service men
through the agency of mo. g."
1T reads like Gaboriau," was the
comment Of the attorney for the de-
tense.
At one period the witness said that
Mr.. Ingham's first report Of alleged
bribery was my God, I've done it,
The climax came when Kendig
avowed he could identify 500 note
he had paid to Ingham by rusty nail
mark on the vignette. This note was
produced and identified by the witness.
It was stated that the note was one
of the first $500 paid to William ]. Nc
Manus, secret service agent, as bride.
The hearing was adjourned until
1890 this morning, and is still in
progress.

believed to have been revenge. When
George Bivins, George Holt and Bill

they were run down by Thurman, and
1t was through his efforts that they
were brought to justice and later
lynched. His life was threatened by
friends of the dead negroes. The
lynched negroes friends had arranged
to kill three prominent white men Of
tho county who had made threats
against Bivins, Holt and Fort, and were
about to carry 1t out when Thurman
heard Of 1t and began to hunt out the
scheme to prevent the murder. He
had almost succeeded in completely
trapping the nine conspirators, when
they turned the tables and shot him
to death in the road. The parties are
nearly AL known, and q number Of ar

Must All Be Reinforced in the Ar
lineton Cemetery.
New York, April 2S.-Flags are fly
ing at half mast today at Governors
Island and at the transport pier at the
foot Of Pacific street, Brooklyn. It Is
an act of respect to the memory OF the
1855 United States soldiers and sailors
whose bodies have just arrived on
the funeral transport Crook. The first
body was taken off yesterday noon,
and before the day was over half of the
collins were on the pier.
ALI the bodies will be out OF the
Crook by o'clock this afternoon, and
It is expected that the special funeral
train TO Arlington cemetery will start
for Washington tonight. Captain Tay-
man, U. s. A., who has been quarter
master of the Crook since she became
funeral ship, says that all the bodies
have been taken from Cuba and Porto
Rico except those of the soldiers who
died from yellow fever. The health
regulations will not permit of the
transportation of these until cold
weather comes again.
SulOHtl EAluUdli az tuily pCoiS6Sa
in the army building yesterday and to-
day by disappointed relatives of the
dead soldiers whose bodies wers
brought here by the Crook. He was
obliged to inform those who claimed
bodies that none would be delivered
to them, but that all bodies from Cuba,
both identified and unidentified would
be buried in Arlington cemetery. This
is because the government fears the
spread of contagious disease should the
bodies be given to the relatives. The
bodies are now in metal, alright cof-
fms. but there can be no certainty that
these collins would not be opened by
relatives once they were taken out of
the control of the authorities. The
identified bodies buried in Arlington
under this order may be taken up
next winter, however, if relatives de-
sire it.
The marines and sailors were buried
in the naval cemetery at the navy
yard today, and were taken from the
pier this morning on one of the navy
tugs.

Most everybody is aware that this comedy
has been the success Of the century, while
this may seem to be very strong asser-
tion 1t 10 bourne out by facts. It Is the
thing nowadays II play meets with any
kind of success at all, and plays for any
length Of time in New York and the other
large cities to announce phenomenal runs,
but in the case Of "Tbe Little Minister"
which was seen for 800 nights in New
York, and everyone Of the performances to
audiences that crowded the theatre to the
doors, 1t is an assured fact and one easily
to be believed. The same success has fol-
lowed it since 1t was seen in New York
and the business everywhere has been to
the capacity Of tho theatre. The company
that will present the comedy here is one
Of Mr.. Charles Frohman's with sLecial
scenery, and cast fully able to portray
the very difficult characters that have
been SC beautifully drawn by j. M. Barrie
who is the author of the novel and who
also made the adaptation of his book. 1t
gives us great pleasure to be able to state
that our theatre.goers are going to appre-
ciate the opportunity which is given them
and that the theatre will be crowded there
Is no doubt. The sale Of seats has been
large and the audience will not only be
large one, but will be very fashionable
one, and it is safe to say that will DO the
event OF the seascn.

which is characteristic of the conf

apologized and said that he did not
intend to insult the German Emper-
or in his speech, which was mad !.
in an informal way at pri at
club, and when his remarks did APP
pear in print. they were exagger-
ated and distorted. This should be
ample apology to the German En-
peror.
