According to advices received yesterday
by Governor Durbin. James Mcdonald, the

PROSECUTOR MILLER
CONDEMNS MCDONALD

Special 70 Indianapolis Journal.
BLOOMINGTON, Ind, Feb. 10-Judge
Wilson and Prosecuting Attorney Miller
held a conference this afternoon over the
arrest OF James Mcdonald for the murder
of Sarah c. Schafer. 1t was determined
that the sense for justice demanded that
no delay in the trial of Mcdonald be toler-
ated and that every effort be made to call
the case at the coming term Of court, which
will hold at Bedford during the month of
March. Prosecuting Attorney Miller has
gone over the circumstances carefully upon
which Mcdonald arrested and says
he feels sure Of his guilt. Said Mr.. Miller:
He perjured himself dozen times before
the court OF inquiry. His stories differed
and he could give no account of himself al
the time of the murder. He was evidently

Gals he was told of the charge against him
and the warrant was read. Mcdonald, aft
er making his short statement. pleaded not
guilty.
The wife of the accused man. although
she confesses that for years she has held
him IN mortal fear, still stands up for her
husband and believes him innocent. He
was a Woodworking man, but may nave
been bad at times" she said. Mrs. McDon-
aid continued: HE did not appear nerv-
Gus when / saw him that night, and he
coolly talked of the crime the next day"
Mrs. Mcdonald takes the arrest with little
feeling and does not refuse to talk of her
husbands arrest.
Little is known in Bedford of Mcdonald S
past and the wife is ignorant of his his
tory before coming to this city. His right
name is William Parsons, as told in the
Journal to-day, but the name of Mcdonald
was taken from an uncle with whom he
made his home after his parents death.
He came to Bedford from Benton, Ill.

had many years experience as a criminal
lawyer and is q man or sound judgment,
whose opinion will have weight. He said
to the Journal tonight: Il believe Nc
Donald 10 be the murderer of Miss Sarah
Schafer, from a careful consideration of
the evidence winch we nave against MIN,
although | cannot reveal the nature of the
evidence until the accused man Is placed on
trial 1 believe the case against him will
grow stronger daily. When the people of
Bedford know all that we know against
Mcdonald and have weighed the evidence
as long have they will also be con-
WINGED that we have the right man. The
idea that Mcdonald cannot use his right
arm is a mistake. He has for long time
made a full hand as coal shoveler, shovel
ing coal all day, using both arms alter
nately TO throw the heavy scoops full of
coal He could easily have overpowered
Miss Schafer, who was a little, frail woman,
weighing not over lis pounds"
The press of Bedford is of opinion that an
innocent man has been taken into custody.

PLAYED PIANO IN SALOON
AND SANG IN CHURCHES
Husband, Sued for Divorce,
Charged by His Wife with Pc
culiar Treatment.
FAILS TO GET DAMAGES

Claiming that her husband accused her
of being Jonah to his business and that
he has never had any luck since they were
married, Mrs. Effie Metzheiser yesterday
filed a petition for divorce and alimony
from Frederick Metzheiser.
They were married Sept. 10, 1894, and
since then it is said their domestic peace
had been constantly threatened. The plain
tiff alleges that her husband is a saloonist
and that he has compelled her to amuse
the patrons of the place by playing piano
which was located in a room above the
place of business. This she said her hus-
band insisted on her doing in view of the
fact that he had accused her of being a
Jonah" to his business and a source Of
constant bad luck.
The plaintiff further alleges that she was
forced by the defendant to sing at the
different churches in the city to obtain
money to help support him in his business.
She says that he always treated her friends
and relatives who visited her with GOODNESS
and silent contempt.

tory. this morning the officers went over to
Louisville and did not appear at the Re
1ormat0ry again during the day.
In personal appearance Mcdonald is of
a sandy complexion, with sandy hair and
stuboy, sandy mustache. He has light
blue eyes, Is about five feet eight inches
tail, weighs about one hundred and forty
pounds and has the general manners, edu-
cation and acumen of the laboring man of
his class His bearing since his arrival at
the Reformatory has not been that of a
man guilty of such henOus crime as the
attempted assault and murder OF Sarah
Schafer and he has undoubtedly made a
favorable impression on the officers of the
institution. although they are not disposed
to believe all of his statements.
Secretary Amos w. Butler and Mrs.
Carrie Goodwin Rexford, the recently ap-
pointed member of the State Board of Char
tiles, are here from indianapolis for an
3nspection of the RefOrmatory and they both
saw Mcdonald in his cell to-day. They
were witnesses to mis- statement to Super
tntendent Whitaker that he was perfectly
willing to remain for a few days.
