His Advances

Walter c. Daniels. the Newark man
Who forged the name OF his wife. Mar
tina. To a check which he cashed. and
left her penniiess and abducted her
child and fed TO Canada. returned to
his wifes home unexpectedly last
night left the child with her and again
disappeared. This time the police have
better clue TO his whereabouts than
they had when he left Newark two
weeks ago. and AZ all plans do not
fail, they vii have captured the alleged
forger. abductor and ,deserter before
many hours elapse.
Daniels flying visib TO Newark and
incidents which grow out of 60, created
considerable excitement in the unusually
quiet town IL was 1850 o'clock when
be entered the home OF his wife. whom
he found in the company of her sister
and two Young men, who happened in
The 5-year-old boy. Almond greeted
his mother with the words, Mamma
am glad to see YOU Papa told me
YOU were dead" Then began conver-
sation between husband and wife
which Daniels prefaced with the order
that the strangers leave the house. Al
the solicitation of Mrs Daniels they re-
1
for fOI giyeness. He wanted TO embrace
! his wife, but she would have nothing tC
do with him. In the meantime a friend
of Mrs. Daniels hurried to Magistrate
Medill for a warrant for Daniels ar.
rest but when the constable arrived
Daniels was gone. He left the baby
with his mother.
Daniels was accompanied by a Will
mington relative with whom he hao
been for several days, and with whom
he walked TO Wilmington after leaving
the Newark house. The local police
learned that he left Wilmington at
o'clock this morning, presumably for
Halifax, his former home.
While in Halifax Daniels wrote his
wife that If she would meet him In
Pottstown, Pa, he would give her the
baby but Mrs. Daniels refused to see
him. 1t is supposed he was in thai
city at the time he wrote the letter
and that he came TO Wilmington imme-
diately upon receiving her letter.

DEFENDANTS NOTE EXCEPTION

cause Of Illness Of Witness
Until September

Counsel in the strattner damage case

they made argument before the jury A
verdict is expected this afternoon.
The closing witnesses for the defense
were Eber Jones, Harry Hewitt and

S an engineer at the electric light works,
said he told Strattner TO use gloves in
handling the switches controlling the al
ternatug currents, and TO use one hand
only. The left handle. or switch was not
working properly. but the danger remain
ed just the same. On cross-examination
he said he never positively knew of the
danger i'm the handles until after Strait
ner was shocked.
Mr.. Hewitt said he warned Strattner not
to touch the alternating currents as he
might be killed. lie told Strattner not to
put himself in such n position that the
current could pass through him. lie ad-
mitted that one Of the switches was out Of

Mr.. Bloomington's question, said he was
on duty at the time of the accident. but

switch, but admitted that he only knew
what other employees had told him. Mr..
Weaver intended to have this testimony
stricken out, but decided to permit II to
remain az its worth.

morning by Messrs. Bloomington and
Weaver At 1l50 O'Clock Chief Justice
