MUST ANTE Up
Magnolia Smallpox Case
Ended.

In the case of Benjamin Rossi
against the trustees of Sandy township
to recover $123 for household goods
and clothing burned as precautiol
against the spread of smallpox at Mag
nolia, the jury returned verdict for
$50 in favor of Rossi. This is less than
half of what was asked.
The court held and instructed the
jury that if the trustees had burned
the goods they were to be paid for. and
about all that the jury Lad to do was
to put a value upon thcT. The EVIL
dence showed that tho property burned
was in the main second hand stuff that
was not very valuable except perhaps
to the Rossis.
1t has been ascertained that tho
greater part of the expense of taking
care Of the smallpox patients down
there was paid out of the county treas
ury, instead of out Of the township
funds.
Attorney James A. Rice represented
the plaintiff and Charles G. Upham
the defendants.

Warren, O., June 4.-The Trumbull
Electric Railway company yesterday
stole a march on the Erie railroad and
placed a crossing over the latter's
tracks between Warren and Leavitts-
burg. which, up till Monday, had been
enjoined property. Five minutes more
and the work would have been COM
pleted, but the Erie ran a switch crew
down to the crossing and held it during
the day.
The Erie sent laborers from all di-
rcctions on the main line, and the Ma
honing division as well, and had over
200 men to combat against 35 there

TREASURE HIDDEN
Under False Step In Stairway
--Eccentric Farmers Queer
Bank,

Marysville, O.. June 4.-Many stories
are in circulation In regard to the
method that William Benson. who died
yesterday at his home. Darby town
ship, employed in saving and caring
for his money. Benson was consid-
cred quite wealthy, and was leading
Democrat. He was regarded as &c.
centric in many respects, and among
the many odd things characteristic of
him is that he was never known to de-
posit any money in a bank. For sew
eral years he kept over $4,000 enclosed
in a metal box. which was secreted
about his premises.
A few years ago he decided to change
it's hiding place. A false step was con-
structed in the stairway of his home
and under this his capital. about $4,000
In ten dollar bills and $4,000 in gold
was placed. A strip of carpet was
spread over the step. and no one would
have suspected that 1t concealed the
hiding place of such an amount
During his life Mr.. benson loaned
but $500. and that to neighbor for
only a few days. A member of the
family happened to notice the carpet
over the false step today while search
Ing for the money and found it. 1t is
marvellous that no attempt was ever
made to rob the house, for many per-
sons in that neighborhood were rea-
sonably certain that the old gentleman
had hidden treasure. as he always re-
ported money to the assessor each
year.

Technical Points In
Her, Case.
ATTORNEYS HAVE
SURPRISE IN STORE
They Propose to Produce Proof
Showing That the Crime
Was Com mitted Under
Strong Psovoostion. IS,

Sarah Robson, who Is incarcerated
In the county jail charged with the
murder Of Walter McNair, at Massll,
lon, was taken into court Wednesday
morning while the question of the
quashing of the indictment for murder
In first degree was being argued.
This is the first appearance of the
woman since she was committed to
jail, and when it became known that
she was in the court house large num-
ber OF pers ons went to the court room.
She was attired in a light brown
skirt, light blue silk waist and wore
a light straw hat surmounted with u
huge cluster of roses. She is full
faced, has fine features and Is hand
some woman for her race. In appear
ance she is quadroon, being very
light. Her hands are small and deli
cate. Her eyes nare large, dark and
slumbrous. Her countenance was se-
rene and showed no evidence that she
has been grieving over her crime.
MA SI1AkN1E OTlNloN.
1t is said that she justiies herself
in her act and her attorneys, Messrs.
Shelter and McCarty, promise some
sensational developments that promise
to change the trend of public opinion
when the case comes up for hearing
Her counsel had filed motion to
quash the indictment against her upon
the ground that the secrecy contem-
plated under the constitutions of the
United States and state of Ohio was not
observed in the deliberations of the
grand jury. The violation was in the
fact that Court Stenographer Belle r..
Norwood had been admitted to take
the testimony of the witnesses who
gave evidence in the case.
A. NJ McCarty, in arguing the mo-
ton, dwelt upon this fact and quoted
the constitutions In support of their
contention. 1t is the first time this
question has ever been raised In Ohio
and the point is an interesting one.
NEW LAW IN EFFECT.
Prosecuting Attorney Day cited the
fact that statute has recently been
passed authorizing the use of Ste
nographer In the grand jury room, and
he did not think 1t was unconstitution-
al. Prior to the passage Of the law.
he said. 1t was necessary to have the
stenOgrapher placed upon the jury as
talesman or appointed assistant pros
ecuting attorney in order to get them
admission % the jury room. 1t was
stated that Belle Norwood always re-
tired during the deliberations Of the
body and while the votes were being
taken.
After the arguments were made.
Judge Amber stated that he would
take the question under advisement.
Mrs. Robinson's attorneys gave no.
tice that in case this application was
not complied with, a plea in abatement
would be filed based upon practically
the same grounds.
During ali the argument. the prison.
er retained look of careless indiffer-
ence and seemed to have little concep-
tion of what was being said. At tho
conclusion of the argument. she was
conducted to her cell by Deputy Har-
vey Zaiser.
