TRIAL BEGINS TODAY.
Mrs. Erb and Sister Must Answer for
Death of Capt. j. Clayton Erb.

Media, Pa, Dec. 2S.-What promises to
be a most sensational trial will begin to-
moirow'Awhcn Mrs. M. Florence Erb. wild
called before the bar with her sister, Mrs
Catherine Beisel, to answer charge of
killing Captain Erb on Oct. 6. Captain
Erb, who was a prominent National
Guardsman. was shot, it is alleged, by
Mrs. Beisl during a family quarrel at his
country home RED Cables" near Viii
lage Green. The quarrel was the last of
a series of domestic disturbances in which
Mrs. Beisel is said to have figured. Capt
t,r5 had ordered her not to come to Red
Gables, but on the night of Oct. 6, after
a dispute hetWeen Captain and Mrs. Erb,
Mrs. Beisel went to the house on being
summoned, it is said, from Il nearby hos
tery by her sister. There was a bitter
wrangle and then the servants neard a
crash of glass, followed by five revolver
shots. Mrs. Erb ran from the shouse
screaming that her sister had shot the
captain, and when the servants went up
stairs they found Captain Erb living in
the hall near his bedroom door. He had
been shot three times. Mrs. Besel admit
ted the shooting. but declared that she
shot her brother-in-law in self-defence.
Both Mrs. Erb and Mrs. Besel were
indicted by the grand jury for murder.
Mrs. F,rb has been cut on bail. having
obtained her release on habeas corpus,
while Mrs. Beisel has been a prisoner
in the Media Jail since the tragedy.

WANT CONCESSIONS.
Germans Will Try to Take Advantage
of New Tariff Schedules.

Washington, Dec. 2S.-There are in
dications that Germany will be among
the first of the European countries to
seek advantage of an arrangement with
America to secure minimum tariff
rates under the terms of the new tariff
act which is expected to be passed at
the special session of Congress to fol-
low close upon the adjournment of the
present regular session March 4 next.
Count Won Bernstorff, the newly ar
rived German ambassador, who ar
ranged with Secretary Root today for
his presentation to President Roose-
welt as ambassador from Germany,
succeeding the late Baron Speck Won
Sternburg. is believed to have been
thoroughly equipped by consultation
with the German foreign Office and
customs officials before his departure
from Germany to undertake this task.
Indications are that the new tariff act
will be framed to take effect immcdi-
ately upon it's approval by the Pres;-
dent
Therefore in order to secure what
ever advantages may be expected to
follow the application of minimum in
stead of maximum tariff rates on i'm
ports into the United States, it will be
necessary for the foreign ambassadors
and ministers resident in Washington
to have arranged in advance of that
date new treaty relations with this
government.
In the case of some European coun-
tries. disposition has been shown to
forestall action by the American con-
gress and guard their own export trade
with America by considerably increas-
ing their existing tariff rates with the
design of securing the basis of new
arrangements with America without
sacrificing to any considerable extent
the protection which they now enjoy
against competition with American ex-
ports.
So far as is known here this is not
yet true Of Germany and with this ee-
ment of good faith in his overtures,
the German ambassador is likely to
meet with cordial reception at the
state department

has never applied the principle to
more than few articles, while several
foreign countries have adopted the
system to cover everything.
If maximum and minimum tariff
bill becomes law it will be possible for
the President to extend the benefit of
the minimum to those countries which
give to this country the benefit of their
differential rates OF duty. Great Brit
ain would secure the benefit of our
minimum rates before she levies no
duties on importations. Germany and
France, each of which have a maxi
mum and minimu tariff law, would
proba bly, offer to grant to this cOun-
try their low schedule of duties, if the
same privilege is extended to their ex-
ports.
Tie United States has trade treaties
with France. Germany, italy. Portugal,
Spain and Switzerland, granting a re-
duction in the duties on certain arti
cles only and while it is very probable
that these reciprocity treaties will be
provided for in the tariff bill now be-
ing prepared it is quite likely that these
countries will endeavor to get the ben
eft of all minimum rates from the
United states in exchange for similar
concessions. Nothing definite has been
decided by the ways and means COM
nlittee as to the basis for the maxi
mum and minimum rates, but it is said
that the dfferential will be about 20
per cent.

Pitisburg COuncIImen Pre-
pared to Fight Charges.
President Roosevelt Believed
To Be Pushing Prosecutions.
Barney Dreyfuss, Baseball Mag.
nate, May Be Witness.

Pittsburg, Dec 2S-Attorneys for the
prosecution Of the alleged corrupt prac-
tees by Pittsburg councilmen, as we'll
as attorneys for the seven councillnen
and two former bankers already un-
der arrest, insist that the trials will
be urged to as speedy conclusion as
the machinery of the courts will per-
nit Attorney for the defendants say
they will be ready to meet the charges
in court whenever presented.
Concerning the alleged bribery coun-
cilmen by officers of national banks to
obtain deposits of city funds. 1t is said
that some of the banks had their
New York correspondents forward the
amount of the corruption fund to an
other Pittsburg bank to the credit of
the councilman negotiating the brib-
cry and that he distributed it to the
other councilmen. Some of the more
wary councilmen worked through safe
ty deposit boxes. but others wrote
checks against the fund.
1t is said that number of these
checks will be presented as evidence.
This it is said, has been receiving the
attention Of federal agents who are
expected to testify at the trials. Pres
ident Roosevelt, it is now generally
believed, has been instrumental in
pushing the federal investigation since
the first disclosure oh irregularities by
national bankers reached the depart
ment Of Justice.
There is an unconfirmed report to-
night to the effect that Barney Drey-
fuss, president of the Pittsburg Base
ball Club, is to be an important wit
ness in the graft cases. The baseball
park is located in what was Allegheny
prior to the consolidation of the cities
and besides annual tickets for all
members of the Allegheny council.
Only a normal license was demanded
from the baseball management When
the cities were consolidated the num-
Der of councilmen was so large that
annual passes to all was considered
too heavy a burden, and none was is
sued. Ihereupon practically prohi
bitory license ordinance was introduce
ed the councils Of the combined cities.
but it has never been finally acted
upon. If Mr.. Dreyfuss is witness it
will he undoubtedly in connection with
the demand made upon the baseball
club.

Adherents Of Former President Castro
Depart from Venezuela.

Willemstad. Island of Curacao, Dec.
2S.--Thc United States cruiser Des
Moines came into this port today She
was in communication with another
American war vessel about five miles
outside the harbor. This second war

cruiser North Carolina and after the
two vessels separated she proceeded
west.
Reliable information has reached
here that General Celestino Castro, the
former residents brother, who was
stationed in Caracas in command of
Venezuelan troops and who was re-
ported to have gone over to the side OF
President Gomez, has crossed the CO.
lombian frontier and is expected at
Cucuta, Colombia, very soon. Several
others among Castro's adherents have
also taken their departure from the
country.
