Cuyahoga Falls, Mch. 16.-Republi-
cans We're met with complications on
all sides at their caucuses last night.
1t was with di fficulty that they sue
ceeded in nominating Water Works
Trustee at all. The nominee, Coun.
Gilman Dwight Shumway, had only
one vote to spare.
The bitterness of the fight between
ex-Mayor Felmly and Councilman
Shumway assumed such proportions
that the ex-Mayor, rather than see
his enemy nominated, sacrificed his
own personal aspiration to join forces
with another to defeat Shumway.
When Mr.. Felmly saw that he
couldn't win, he was ready to do al
most anything to keep Shumway from
securing the honor. When the race
was well on, Felmly dropped out.
He had so votes, and these, by his
request We're transferred to Wm.
Clarkson, Felmly believing their

His Story of the Case.

send her to the reform school; that
they objected to her receiving the at
tentions of a young man and had
threatened to send her away.
II asked her age" Mr.. Chalker said,
"and she told me she was 1S. I
read her the statute showing that she
could not be sent to the reform school,
and she then told ME that she and this
young man were going to run away to
Indiana to be married l asked her
If she knew the laws of Indiana as to
whether they could be married in that
State. She then suggested that they
could go to Pennsylvania. 1 told her
the law there had recently been
changed and runaway couples would
have trouble getting married there.
She inquired as to the age which
must have been attained by those
applying for marriage licenses in
Pennsylvania. j did not know but
suggested that Attorney l.. N. Myers,
formerly practiced law in that State
and could give her the information.
She asked that l see him and l told
her that if happened to meet him
l would ask him, but If she wished
the information soon, she would bet
ter go to him herself.
"The girl came again to my office
few days later and some woman
accompanied her. A third time she
came but a woman was with her. The
girl was never so much as inside my
private Office and there was at no
time the slightest approach toward any
improper conduct between us. Her
story Is absolutely false"
The woman to whom Mr.. Chalker
referred is the Cleveland woman who
Is now in Akron. Her whereabouts
is unknown as, to prevent attorneys
for Mr.. Ohalker from talking to her,
her identity has been kept a secret
She is expected to be one of the States
strongest witnesses. Counsel for the
complainants claim that Miss John
ston is able to give an accurate de.
scription of Mr.. Chalker's inner Office.
The girls mother was furious when
she learned that Mr.. Chalker was not
taken to Police court headquarters in
the patrol wagon. She is venomous
in her language against Mr.. Chalker
and Wednesday afternoon when he
| called at her home to talk to her and
the girls step-father, she threatened
to use a poker on him. She is very
emphatic in her denial of the imputa,
tion that 1t was with any intention or
hope of a financial gain that the
charges were made against Mr.. Chalk
er.

"Not guilty" said Attorney Newton
Chalker, rising from his seat at the
attorneys table as Mayor w. q.
Young called the case in which Ethel
Johnston charges him with rape
Preliminary hearing was given in
Police court, Saturday morning. Mr..
Chalker, well dressed as usual was
as unruffled as a a day in June. In
expectation of this case being called
the lobby Of the Police court was
crowded.
Mr. Chalker stated that he wanted
a preliminary hearing before the
Mayor, but wished the case continued
as the complainants and others were
strangers to him and he desired time
in which to secure his witnesses, some
of whom lived out of town. He
wanted 10 days or two weeks.
w. A. Spencer, Esq, counsel for
complainants objected to SO long a
continuance as some of the witnesses
for their side lived out of the city, but
were now here. The hearing was set
for next Thursday, Mr.. Spencer still
objecting.
Mr.. Cbalker's bond of $1,000 signed
by Mr.. N. G. Stone, will hold good in
the meantime. 1t was given when
Policeman John King brought the de-
fendant in late Friday afternoon. He
found him on Mill, ST., near Main ST.,
and Mr.. Chalker saying he had antici-
pated arrest, made no objections to
accompanying the officer to headquar-
ters. He secured bail at once and
was released.
Mr.. Chalker furnished the Democrat
the following statement, Saturday:
To the Editor of the Democrat and
the Public:
My attention has been called to the
publications in last evenings paper,
personal to myself, in reply to which
I wish only to say at this time that
every accusation against me therein
contained is absolutely false and made
for no other purpose than to extort
money. request of the public to
kindly refrain from forming an opin-
ion until the final developments are
made known.

In an interview with a reporter for
