GOSLIN A STATE WITNESS

PHILADELPHIA, March THE case of
Alfred R. Goslin of New York, who was
arrested here on Monday night on the
charge of conspiring to depress the stock
of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company,
came up this morning in the court of oyer
and terminer on a writ of habeas corpus
Bail was fixed at 5000, but Goslin has
not as yet secured a bondsnan. His law
yer, however. says satisfactory bail will
be produced. Judge Wilson was on the
bench. and Chief of Detectives McCIusky of
New York handed him the Indictment
which he read "
Counsel for Geslin then read the section
of the statute under which the indictment
was found and stated that as his clients
offense constituted a misdemeanor and not
a felony he was entitled to ball. He also
asserted that when Goslin was arrested
there was no indictment against him.
District Attorney Rothermel of this city
asked that the bonds be made sufficiently
substantial to insure the defendants pres
ence when required. and suggested $1,000
as the amount. This suggestion was adopt
ed by the court.
Captain McClusky said today that he
would send a man to this city tomorrow
with requisition papers and Goslin would
then be taken, back to New York.
The maximum penalty for the offense
with which he Is charged is 5000 fine and
three years Imprisonment.
Effect on the L. 8. Dean Cases.
NEW YORK, March district Attorney
w. NJ. X. Olcott, to whom the present dis
trict attorney has delegated the prosecu-
ton of the E. s. Dean & Co. cases, com.
plains that the arrest Of Gosln is likely to
have bad effect in the Dean cases. The
indictments alluded to, which are against
]. B. Kellogg, Myron T. Bernard, Samuel
Keller and A. R. Goslin, were set for trial
tomorrow.
Goslin, who had turned states evidence,
was regarded by Mr.. Olcott as the best
witness for the prosecution. Mr.. Olcott
said today that he went before the special
grand jury and asked that the Indictment
against Goslin in the Brooklyn Rapid Tran
sit matter be deferred, to allow Gosin
chance to testify in the Dean cases. Mr..
Olcott said now that Goslin's indictment in
the Brooklyn Rapid Transit matter will
impair thu value of the testimony that he
might give in the Dean cases in the esti-
nation of a jury
Goslin was released on bail this after
neon, the City Trust, Safe Deposit and
Surety Company of this city going on his
bond. GosiinS counsel states that the eff
fort to take him back to New York will
be fought at every step-first at Albany,
next at Ha: .sburg before Gov. Stone and
finally in the courts of this city

UNKNOWN MAN KILLED.
Receipt In His Pocket Containing
Name of Louis Schmatx.


Special Correspondence OF The Evening Star.
HYATTSVu.LE, Nd, March Z. 1900.
A well-dressed and respectable appearing
white man was killed last evening. one mile
east Of Riverdale. by train o24, Royal Blue
limited, which leaves Washington at )
o'clock. The body was horribly mangled
and strewn along the track for five hun
dred yards or more. Every particle of
clothing was torn from It, both feet were
cut of at the ankle; the head was severed
from the trunk and ground to atoms, pre-
senting an awful sight to those who col
ected the remains.
The train which struck the unfortunate
man is one of the fastest on the road, and
at the point where the accident occurred
was running at speed of seventy miles
an hour. The engineer saw the man long
distance ahead. but thought he would step
from the track as the train approached
and when within seventy-five or a hundred
yards of him blew the warning signal which
the man either did not hear or did not
heed.
After the accident the train was fmmedi-
ately stopped and the crew went back and
removed portions of the remains from the
tracks and gathered his clothing which was
also strewn along the road. After consid-
cradle search in the ragged and torn gar
ments the conductor discovered in the
coat pocket pocket book containing six
one-dollar bills, a pair of shoe strings a
receipt Tor one dollar made in the name
or Louis SchmatZ. a bunch Of KEYS news
paper clippings. cigar case and a match
SAFE These articles were taken by the
conductor and turned over to the superin-
tendent in Baltimore.
Justice Carr of this village was modified
and Immediately went to the scene of the
accident, and after a thorough investiga-
ton of the facts concluded that an inquest
was unnecessary. Undertaken Gasch of Bla-
densburg took charge of the remains 1t
is the opinion of some that the man was a
resident of Washington from the fact that
ne was seen by several citizens to get
up the tracks of the Baltimore and Ohio
toward baltimore. He is described as being

Great Britain's Reason for Keeping
Lord PnuncefOte Here.

LONDON! March THE st. James Ga
zette this afternoon, while declaring that
the extension of Lord Pauncefotes stay

Britain is due to the coming presidential
election and ''all that goes with this recur-

''To Americans Lord Pauncefote's stay
will be acceptable because he has achieved
the feat Of making himself popular, with
a success for which there is no precedent
since the first British minister was accred-

of office is highly desirable. from a bust

our feelings that they should continue to
