The case Of the state vs. A, u. Ger
Der win probably be submitted to the
jury today in Judge Morse's court, as
nearly an of the evidence was In when
the court adjourned for the noon re-
cess. Gerber Is charged with criminal
relations with Annie Estell, a l7-year-
old girl, IN this city on March 2 1903.
The testimony for the defense tends to
prove an alibi for Gerber but the cross
examination Of the witnesses for the
defense has not been very favorable TO
Gerber and has indicated that his
friends have been little too active in
their desire TO establish an alibi IN his
behalf.

Burlington, April 29.-M. L.
Powell, one of the counsel of s. d.

gard to the "Spotter" Wilson sensa-
tion in Washington few days ago.
A part of letter he received from
Wilson, dated February "a, is as fol-
lows: For some time past DR.. Craft
and members of his family have OBJ
served five or six men who hang alb out
the house all day and late into the
night We have noticed that when L
go downto Sn two or three of them go
with me on the same car, and when 1
return they take up position on the
opposite corner Upon investigation
we learned that they we're strangers
and supposed to be detectives. Last
Sunday they became so offensive to
me that Dr. Graft decided to lay the
matter before the authorities. After
a consultation with M. M. Farland,
one of the commissioners for the Dis
trict of Columbia, the matter was
placed in the hands of Major Syl-
vester, commander of the district
police. who detailed Detective Ser
geant Peck upon the case. Since that
day the men have disappeared and
cannot be found in the city.

SMA.LL POX AGAIN

White River Junction, April 80. -
Two cases of small pox have devel-
oped in the Sargent hotel at West Leb-
anon, N. II. The two victims are
Miss Urquhart, from Concord, N. H.,
and Robert Stevens, of West Lebanon.
The former is a trained nurse from
Concord, N. H., who has been nursing
G. H. Sargent, proprietor of the hotel,
who is seriously ILL Robert Stevens
is hackman connected with the hotel.
Both Miss Urquhart and Mr.. Stevens
were taken i'll on Friday, and suspi-
cions of small pox were entertained.
Drs. Cook and Watson, from Concord,
n, H., State medical examiners, were
called. After examining the cases
they pronounced them to be small pox
and ordered the removal of the pa
tients to the Woods house in Butman-
VILE. Two cases of small pox came
down in the Sargent Hotel not very
long ago, and it is supposed that the
present cases were caused by contagion
from the other two. Prompt and
stringent measures have been taken to
prevent the spread Of the disease.

AIDE E.S.S TO WORKINGMEN

| Hartford, Conn, April 29.-In con-
nection with unionism President Mel
len Of the New York, New Haven and
Hartford railroad, who made an ad-
dress before the Workingmen Free
Reading Room Association last night
advised all workingmen to join unions
but to be force for conservatism. He
said:
1.-THE trouble with unionism is its
intolerance. To succeed in this world
one must bear and forbear. You can
not force things your way but you
may direct them.
"No one interest has done more to
promote the trust or combination, the
larger corporation, than organized la
Dor. 1t has forced them into existence
for protection from exaction. Into
what does it all tend? Given all your
hot heads seek, and there will be no
one to employ you and corporations
must be run by the government. Cap
ital will not seek investment where
iobhihS pup iOno oiu OOhti fOloN III OhO
result. The rule of the radical will
not prevail. The hot head must be
retired Or in the contest in which he
will involve you. you will go down to
defeat Education and brains will
outweigh numbers and Drawn. The
specialized student is to be the general
of future armies. The rich man of
today can accomplish less than at any
time in the history of the world and
the restrictions placed around him are
growing greater with every year. My
advice to you who have families is to
join your unions and be always force
for conservatism. "
Mr.. Mellen was enthusiastically re-
ceived.
