DRAMATIC TRIAL.
Mrs. Mary Rogers Charged With
Murder of Her Husband.

Mrs. Mary Rogers Charged Witt
Murder Of Her Husband.
The trial of one of the most dramati,
cases that ever occupied the attention
of the courts of Vermont began il
Bennington, Dec. 9, when Mrs. Mar
NJ. Rogers was brought before Ben
I nington county court. charged with
murder The victim OF the tragedy
was Marcus NJ. Rogers, and his wife
the state alleges, was the principal il
the crime. Two other persons. how.
ever. Levi Perham. by whom Mrs
Rogers was employed, and Stella Bates
are charged with completely in the
crime.
Mrs. Rogers was brought into court
looking bright and animated. She dis.
played but little nervousness as she
glanced over the crowd that filed every
available portion of the room. She
was somewhat pale as result of her
long confinement in Jail.
As soon as the jurors had been sworn
in o. NJ. Barber Tor the state opened
the case. He said that they expected
to prove in the death of Marcus Rog-
ers that his wife had reason for put
ting him out of the way so that she
could marry another; that she had il
licit relations with Leon Perham and
that she expected to receive Rogers
lite insurance $500. Counsel for
Mrs. Rogers took exception 70 the
words .illicit relations
Leon Perham was called to the stand.
With dull and listless AIR, as though
the telling little concerned him, this
youth of IS related in court how, for
the unrequited love of Mrs. Mary III.
Rogers. he aided the woman TO murder
her husband, TO the end that with the
$500 insurance obtained on his life, she
might furnish home for the man she
loved.
According to the witness the hus-
band was lured late at night, to a river
bank, where he was to meet his wife
from whom he had become estranged,
for the purpose of reconciliation.
The pretended Cancellation was af-
fected and then in a burst of well
feigned and playful affection, the wo-
man proposed that they do tricks with
a rope which she brought with her.
The husband, happy in the friendly
relations re-established, Joined in the
sport with enthusiasm. After a little
Mrs Rogers wanted to see how strong
her husband was.
She bound his arms, but he
easily released himself. Again she
bound him but he again loosed his
cords. Mrs. Rogers suggested that
Perham try his hand and he bound
Rogers. Again Rogers indicated his
strength by breaking loose. Then
Perham bound him again and this time
securely. From her pocket Mrs. Rog-
ers quickly drew a handkerchief and
bottle OF chloroiorm. Saturating the
handkerchief, she placed it over her
husbands face and in three minutes he
was dead.
Perham testified that the only ex-
clamation Mr.. Rogers made when his
wife chloroformed him was to cry
stop I" He said this once.
Mrs. Rogers picked up her husbands
hat, which had fallen on the ground,
and pinned a note on it, which she
said would make people think he had
committed suicide. On the paper she
had written: IL am going to drown
myself and nobody else is to blame for
my DEATH and signed her husbands
name. Perham then threw the body
into the river and hand in hand the
two returned to their home.

SEEK STOLEN MONEY.
Detectives Are Hunting for
Captain Carriers Doodle.

Stanford, Conn.,, Sept. 10.-The mys-
terious arrest and subsequent release of
four young men near Woodside park,
has led to reports that several detectives
are al work in this vicinity seeking to
locate a large sum of money alleged to
have been secreted after the exposures
leading to the Imprisonment of Captain
Oberlin NJ Carter at Fort Leavenwortfl.
Kan. and the flight to Canada of Cap
tain B. d. Greene and John F. Gaynor.
The fact that the detectives have for
days kept a close watch on an old shed
on the estate once owned by Greene.
near Woodside park, has given currency
to the reports. 1t was near the shed that
the four young men were caught The
detectives fired on them when they
started to run away. The prisoners were
marched to Jail and later released with
out EXPLANATION.

SUGAR THIEVES.
Chicago Wholesale Grocers Victims
of a Conspiracy.

Chicago, Sept 10.-By the arrest OF
eight men last night the wholesale
grocers of Chicago struck an initial
blow at a widespread conspiracy by
which they have lost thousands of dol
lars worth of merchandise in the past
few weeks. Those in custody are SIX
teamsters a receiving clerk and re
tail grocer. Other arrests will be made
today, and the promise is that 5fty or
more men-employes of the wholesale
houses. as well as retail grocers-wlil
be involved in the charges
According to the confession of one OF
the prisoners. the scheme was worked
in this manner.
For instance. a driver would take
sixty bags OF sugar out of the ware
house. Then he would drive around to
some retail grocer who was in on the
play and would deliver perhaps dfteen
of the bags to him. That done. ne
would deliver the other forty-f TO
the wholesale house.
"Of course to make the records seem
right. it would be necessary for the
drivers to have an understanding with
some receiving clerk in the wholesale
house. The receiving clerk would check
up for sixty sacks received, and in this
way the theft would not be detected
till il was found that the stock on
hand was becoming Depleted
