TESTIMONY OF SON MAY
SHOW MOTHER IS GUILTY
New York Prosecutors Believe the Binge
Poisoning Case Will Develop Into
One of the Mysteries
of the Age.

He testified that in a closet in the
bathroom adjoining the bedroom Of
Mrs Binge he had found a bottle Of
corrosive sublimate tablets Alexan-
der Wallau, the 20-year-old son of
the prisoner, was with him while he
was searching the rooms and when ne
found the poison, so Reardon testified
the son exclaimed:
MY God is that what you were
looking for?" and shook and shud-
dered.
Reardon took the charge of the
bottle and next day turned 1t over to
the district attorney.
Reardon continued his testimony to
the effect that on the fact of every
one Of the tablets the word "poison"
was impressed letters.
Apart from the detective, the most
important witness of the day was
Miss Elizabeth c. Devine, a nurse.
She related many details that had not
been told I'm public, and the conse-
quence was that Mr.. Corrigan rested
his case early in the efternoon, with
holding a large amount Of other evil
dence I'm his possession.
Much other testimony unfayorable
to Mrs. Wallau was elected.

New York, Feb. 22.-Accused of
numbering her mother, Mrs. Ida Binge
by slow poisoning, the most damaging
evidence against Mrs. Ida Wallau may
come from her own son, judging from
the developments at the first days
session of the inquest before Coroner
Acritelli today.
Indirectly and unexpectedly tbs
line of testimony was developed, and
it was one of several surprises in
case that, in the belief of the prose-
cutting officers, will prove TO be one
of the great poisoning mysteries Of
the age. not excepting the Molineaux
and Fleming affairs.
John b Stanchfeld, who was taken
into the defense as senior counsel late
Tuesday night, was conducting the
cross-examination of the witnesses
called by Assistant District Attorney
Corrigan and in cooperation with his
associates he had scored many points
favorable to the defense, when h4-
ward ]. Reardon, a county detective,
attached to the district attorneys Of
flee, was called to the stand.
Questioned by Mr.. Corrigan, Rear
don said he had been at the Wallau
house the night Of Feb. G. when Mrs.
Binge died,

Runaway TEAM
CAUSES THREE
DEATHS
Jesus Ma MOntOya. Wife and
Child Fatally Injured on
Their Return From Visit.

AS the result of a runaway near
Pojoaque, N. M, on Wednesday, one
of the most terrible accidents ever
recorded in this portion of the terri
tory took place. The team belonged
to Jesus Ma. Montoya, who, with his
wife and a small child, had been on
a visit to Pojoaque, and who on the
morning of the accident started with
lis family on their return to his
ranch near Santa Cruz. Shortly after
the start the team in some manner
took fright, overturning the wagon
and throwing all three of the occu-
pants to the ground and dragging
them for q considerable distance, Mr..
Montoya's skull was fractured by
contact with stones in the road and
by several blows from the horses
feet, and his death took place almost
Immediately. When found his brains
were protruding and his face was
terribly lacerated Mrs. Catalina
Montoya, his wife, and the child were
also horribly injured and cannot sur
vive.
The scene of the accident is about
fifteen miles north of Santa Fe. Mr.
Montoya was an uncle of Celsc
Lopez, treasurer and ex-officio col
lector of Santa Fe county, and was
we'll known and much respected
among the native population of the
district in which he lived.

Denevr, Colo, Feb. 22.-Inspectors
from the Denver office of the United
States secret service have returned
from Arizona, where they have been
for ten days attending the trial of
forgers of government pay checks.
The evidence produced by the officers
was sufficient to send the criminals to
the penitentiary, and the three guilty
ones are now doing time in the Ari-
zona penal institutions. The pris-
oners are Z. Phil Raper and James
Lemon and his wife.
The work of the forgers was the
most daring that has come to light
under the government service for
years, and the prisoners left trail
from the rich valley of the ella in
Arizona to Los Angeles, San Francis
co, Goldfeld, La Junta and then back
to the scene of starting.
+. Phil Raper, whose appearance Is
that of the typical western bad man
of the plains, was employed by the
goernment as a carrier of mail and
other packages owned or conveyed by
Uncle Sam from the campslte in the
ella country to the camp where hun
dreds of men are employed in the
reclamation service on the big dam
known as the Roosevelt.
One day last fall he was given a
package of mail. and Investigated all
of the contents of the large packages.
Among other things he found was a
| package containing five check books
! for the use of the men in the govern
ment reclamation service, the books
! containing about 1000 individual
checks, and all blank, ready to be
| filled out.
Raper stole this package and the
checks and made preparations to dc
the west like no other traveller had
before. The day after the theft he
went to Globe, visited the tenderloin
became acquainted with a woman Of
the underworld and gave her an invi
tation to paint the western coast
lurid hue.
The invitation was quickly accept
ed, and the costliest compartment II
Pullman was telegraphed for.
Raper got his first assortment o.
silver coins by passing the govern
ment checks at Globe. From there
the check trail was followed to Dem
ing, ~ M, El Paso, Texas, and scores
Of smaller towns on the way to south
ern California. From Los Angelo
he went to Frisco, and in the lattel
place also passed a number OF th'
worthless checks. Then he minlnl
camps and Goldheld and Tonopaf
were visited, tine habitu5 OF th'
gambling joints standing in awe o
the rough looking would-oe million
aires who were throwing greenback
right and left and paying any price
for the best of service.
In the gold fields the woman foun-
the pace entirely too fast, and sh'
went back TO the rich ella lands
while Raper kept hitting the trail an'
finally struck Colorado al La Junta
dropping a check at every importan
place.
He. too, with the audacity Of tn
pirates of old, was making his wa
back toward Arizona, and was ar
rested by the special agents OF IN
government at Bisbee, Arlzp on sep

is aimed to prevent the indiscriminate
slaughter of game. The bill is all
right" applause from the minority
glad to welcome Littlefield back.)
Speaker Baca said the law was in
troduced by himself, in good faith and
the fact that the house had voted to
abolish the office of game warden did
not abolish it.
1.-The governor still has .ns ham,
mer out" he said with smile.
However, 1 believe the bill we pass
ed will become a law" Mr.. Abbott
of Santa Fe also took a hand in the
discussion saying that he did not
want to see the territory without a
game law but that he did favor the
changes which could be had under Mr..
Baca's bill. The matter was AMIGA
bly, adjusted when the committee of
the whole arose and Mr.. Studley re-
ported progress on the bill, thus
leaving it in the hands of the COM
mittee of the whole. The bill is quite
stringent and it is probable that il
will be modified in some respects.

tember 29. With him at the time of
the arrest was the woman OF his
journeys who had again Joined him
on the trip. Her husband was with
them also. His name is James Lemon
and she married him after leaving
! Raper.
When Raper left the woman he
turned over to her a large number of
the blank government checks and she
was charged with being an accessory
in the crime of passing them after
she had left him. Lemon and wife
were convicted on February -, and
! sentenced to prison for an indefinite
| term.
1t is considered in government cir
| cles an extraordinary case in more
ways than one. 1t is seldom that gov
ernment checks are gotten hold of as
easily as Raper got his. as they are
usually guarded with a Jealous eye by
the officers in charge of the camps
| where they are issued in large guam
| titles. 1t was an easy matter to pass
them, and the veriest amateur would
not have any trouble in obtaining
money on them.
Raper wrote most of the checks for
amounts ranging from $40 to 800,
and he told the secret service men
that the gamblers suffered the most.
He beat them at their own games
with money gotten illegally few mo-
ments before in the same town.
Raper is a man of little education, al
though he displayed some of the clev-
erness of the wisest crooks.

GANG OF THUGS
TERROR|zE THE
SOUTHWEST
Gus Weinmdn Robbed of SIS.
Work For Mounted
Police to Do.

There is no doubt left that well
organized gang of thugs are oper-
ating along the Santa Fe, immedi-
ately south and west of this city
Last Saturday night a special dis
patch to The Evening Citizen from
Laguna, forty miles to the west, gave
an account of an Indian being robpeo
in broad daylight by single brigand
with a gun. The dispatch also stated
other similar robberies had been re-
ported in the same vicinity, and that
in each case the victim was rail-
road laborer, but in no instance had
the thief been captured, though II
was stated that a posse had taken up
the trail of the culprit who was de-
scribed as a Mexican wearing blue
oyeralls, a dark coat and cap.
But the real evidence Of the work
of the gang has come to this city in
the person of a German, who gives
his name as Gus Wianmann. Wian-
mann has a deep cut across his jaw
and neck about an inch from his
jugular vein, and the thumb of his
left hand is almost severed. He is
now a charge of the city, having his
wounds dressed by the city physician.
Wianmann says that he was en-
ployed for a couple of weeks at Elm
dorf bailing hay. A week ago he
quit his job at Elmdorf to go to
! Belen to work on a railroad con-
| struction gang. He was told thai
it wasn't very far from Elmdorf to
| Belen and he thought he would
walk. He was walking along the
railroad track just this side of Sar
| Antonio, when all at once out of the
darkness something hit him an aw
| full blow in the neck. He fell, bu
he had no more than hit the ground
when two men tooh hold of him ano
dragged him through a barbed wire
fence which bounded the railroad
right of way. They went through
me-" said Wianmann, in broken Eng
lish, taking all the money l had eX
cept a silver dollar, which was in m!
vest pocket. This they did not find
Twenty-Five dollars in bills, which
had in a tobacco sack in an insid
pocket, they got. 1t was so darl
that l couldn't see whether the me-
were Americans or natives" Wian
mann arrived here broke and unabl
to work as a result of his injuries.
The frequency with which thes
bold holdups have been taking plac
has caused feeling of unrest anon
the people living in the country In
tested by the thieves. The attentio
of the mounted police is called to tn
situation. But it seems that tn
mounted police have been kept bus
for some time past chasing escape
convicts.

AMT It FUNNY
WHAT MONEY WILL BUY

A man called for buttered toast
toast and coffee in a restaurant this
morning. He had a dark brown
meat paper taste in his mouth and
some hazy recollections.
When the waiter brought in the
order the plate also contained a dead
roach and the chrysalls of a butter
fly.
Now If that plate were surround
ed by a few trees, we'd have a men,
agerie," observed he of the recollec-
tions as he arose unstadily from his
seat with a rebellious stomach and
shaking limbs.
"Ain't it funny what things money

er. Thought 1 was hungry but /
guess it was thirst. Adois."
