CASE THAT Will
Be SENSATIONAL
TWO WOMEN INDICTED IN A WILL
CONTEST.
Sister Of One Of Them. Alleged to Be
Hidden In Some Private SAM.
tariun1.

Chicago, July 6.-Disclosure was
made today of the indictment of two
women in connection with the will
contest over the $2,000,000 estate of
the late Colonel George T. Cline,
known in his later years as the real
estate king"
The defendants, Mrs. Matilda BeE-
der and her daughter Marie gave
bonds today in the sum of $4,000
each on charges of conspiracy and
perjury. 1t is alleged that they or
their friends are keeping in hiding
Charlotte e. Bender, Marie's sister
who 1t is alleged, has been used as a
tool in the plot. She was declared
insane some time ago and is now sup
posed to be in some private sanitar-
ium. This, it is said, was part of the
plan, which was to make her unfit
to be called as a witness in the case
The mother and sister were indicted
for swearing before Probate Judge
Cutting that Charlotte was secretly
married to Col. Cline, the millionaire
who, it is alleged, led a double life
posing at one time as Robert Cline,
a livestock commission buyer, and
again as wealthy bachelor, real es.
tate man.
Witnesses before the grand jury tes-
titled that Charlotte never saw Col.
Cline but once, when she forced her
way into the room in Mercy hospital
where he law dying. With almost his
last words, 1t is said Col. Cline de-
MED ever having any relations with
the Bender girl. Witnesses also testi.
fed that Charlotte was married to
Robert Cline, the cattle buyer, who
died in 1897 and is buried in Roche
dale, Ind.
One OF the most remarkable phases
of the alleged conspiracy consists of
the tangling of the identity of the
two dead men of the same surname.
A. r. Ieakle, mayor of Frederick
Maryland; John C. Cline, collector OF
the port Of Los Angeles, Ca, and
George T. Cline, collector of the port
OF San Pedro, nephews and heirs un.
der the will of Col Cline, are in Chi
cago to prosecute the fight against
the Benders, who claim that all doc.
umentary evidence of the alleged mar.
riage was stolen from Charlotte soon
after the colonels death. This they
say, drove her insane.
The case promises to be a sensa.
tional one. .. Il

clare that the mutineers can be de-
pended on to make for Batoum in the
hope of capturing that port and re-
plenishing their magazines from the
arsenal there. Inasmuch as there has
been a strike on there for several
months, and the socialists. are very
strong in tht vicinity, the mutineers
will have support in any move they
may make against the Russian. authori-
ties, and, If the report is true that
there are dissensions in their ranks,
they can get all of the men needed to
take the places of the sailors who are
discontented.

man was in the boat with Weber when
the offense was committed. The chair
man boldly states that he was in the
boat, and further adds that Congress
lake does not come under the jurisdic-
tion of the game laws, because it is
owned and controlled by stock COM
pany.
Game Warden Dangeleisen and Chief
Porterfield do not hold the opinion that
private rights in this case interferes
with the state laws. Hence the case.

two Canton men, went Weber's bond
in the sum of 5000 for his appearance

Congress like is located about four
miles east Of Uniontown and lies in

fish netted were black bass.

Weber at the trial next Thursday. The
wardens will present the states evi-

FREIGHT RATES
Interstate Commerce Commission
ModIfies a Recent Decision.


Washington, July 6.-The interstate
commerce commission today filed a
memorandum in the matter of differ
initial freight rates to and from North
Atlantic ports, modifying its recent de-
.ision as to ex-lake grain.
The differential allowed by the COM
mission on ex-lake grain from Lake
Eric ports to Baltimore and Philadel-
phia was 3-10ths of cent per bushel
under the rate to New York. Upon re-
ceipt OF a communication from the
Boston chamber of commerce calling
intention to the fact that the applica-
ton of uniform differential Of 3-10ths
OF cent per bushel upon all kinds of
ex-Iake grain would result in allowing
almost twice as great a differential on
pats as on wheat, the commission now
finds that the differential upon the
heavy grain should be somewhat larg-
er than that upon oats and barley, and
decides as follows:
Since 1t is hardly practicable to
state in the case of the different grains
The exact differential per bushel which
would be equivalent to nc per 100
pounds, we think that the differential
On wheat, corn and rye should be $40
Of a cent per bushel, while that upon
pats and barley should be 1-6 of cent
per bushei.

Topeka, Kan, July 6.-Several DAYS
previous to the failure of the First Ma

deposit was set aside in a separate
fund, to be returned to depositors when
the crash came. BY SO doing, the bank

deposits when a bank is known to be
in a failing condition. Receiver r. ].

funds so accepted would have to be-
come part of the assets of the institu-
tion. With this announcement came
the intimation that prosecutions will
likely follow, not only for the officers
