DETECTIVE AND
LAWYER IN HOOK
Charged With COnSpiring to
. Prevent Justice.
UNSAV0RY LONDON SCANDAL
DIVORCE OBTAINED BY GRIM
INAL METHODS.
UNSAVORY LONDON SCANDAL

London, April 23.-At Bow Street po-
lice court today Henry Slater. head Of
the best known private detective agen-
cy in England. was held in heavy bail
charged with conspiring to prevent the
due course of justice. With him in the
dock were Albert Osborne. his lawyer,
and two private detectives, employed
by Slater. They also were put under
heavy bail
The case is the sequel to a sensa-
tional divorce suit in which Slater was
employed to secure evidence against the
husband. a decree was obtained last
November. but the authorities became
suspicious and after a rehearing this
week, the decree was TeScinded, the
jury finding that the husband was in
duced through the agency of Slater and
Osborne to misconduct himself in order
that his wife might obtain a divorce.
The rehearing attracted great public
interest. Sir Edward Clarke and the
leading lawyers defended Slater. but
were unable 10 refute the scathing ac-
cusations of Solicitor General Carson,
who revealed the extraordinary meth
DDS pursued by the detective agency.
over $4,000 was paid to Slater and Os-
borne for the evidence on which the
decree was originally granted.
The solicitor general said that il was
deliberately cOncocced by the lowest
type Of men and women. who perjUred
themso-. IS for small sums Osborne,
who is a rather prominent lawyer,
startled English legal circles by saying
he would pay for evidence if he could
not get it in any other manner, and
that he had the right TO charge as
much as a client would give him, re-
SardlesS Of the fiXnA che ICES which ex-
list among all solicitors here.
The solicitor general bitterly de-
nounced such an agency as Slater'S,
which he declared bounded innocent
men ar women.
The arrests are expected TO produce
further sensational matter relating to
other cases. The prisoners will come
up for further hearing April so. tOday's
proceedings being merely formal.
