GRAND JURY TO GET
NEW EVIDENCE IN
SWAMP MYSTERY
Prosecution Claims to Be Able
to Convict WhitmOre of
Wife's Murder.

New and important evidence regard
ing the movements of Theodore S.
Whitmore last Christmas night is now
In the possession of Assistant County
Prosecutor ViclSers, of Hudson County
This evidence will be presented to the
Grand Jury next Friday, when the
prosecution will cndeavor to secure an
indictment against Whitmore for the
murder of his wife. Mrs. Lena Whit
more, whose nude body was found in
the Lampblack Swamp, at Harrison, on
the morning of December &c.
The prosecution now believes that it
has sufficient evidence to secure an IN
dictment against Whitmore for murder
In the first degree.
Efforts are now being made by the
county prosecutor to have Harry Dick
inson, the husband of Georgia Dickin-
son, the intimate woman friend Of
Whitmore, who was arrested in Bos-
ton after a sensational fight. appear
before the Grand Jury.
Dickinson has just come into a for
tune of $5O,00O, which was wiled him
by his mother, and he has been maxi
ing desperate efforts during the last
week to secure the release of his wife
on bail.
Another important witness now being
sought both by the Hudson County
authorities ana the Brooklyn central
Office is Sadie Williams, an inmate of
the Whitmore lodging house at 236
Adams street. Brooklyn.
Whitmore at present has regained
all his former bravado and appears
confident that no Indictment can be
brought against him on the evidence.
An unusual phase of the swamp trag-
edy occurred yesterday when Louis
Gennell a barber, who formerly re-
sided In Harrison and is now employed
IN a shop in Bloomfield, wass arrested.
Gennells arrest occurred through a
on the part of the Hudson
County authorities who arrested him
as a suspect in the Whitmore case.

NEW YORK, Feb. 1.-THE special
Grand Jury which yesterday indicted
Charles ]. w. Morse for alleged misuse
of ex-Supreme Court Justice Morgan
j. O'Brien's name in indorsing a note
of 100000 has adjourned until Thurs
day. Indictments have been ordered
however, so that action by the jury is
assured when that body meets again.
The indictments will be in connection
with the investigation of the manage
ment of the Provident Savings Life AS
surance Society and the Bankers Life
Insurance Company. E. r. Thomas
was at the head OF the Provident, and
Foster M. Voorhees,, former Governor
of New Jersey. was president of the
Bankers Life from 1902 until 1906
which is the period in the history of
the Bankers Life that was under in
vestigation.
Only one indictment will be handed
up in each case, and one of these, it is
said, will be in the nature of a surprise,
and will be based upon financial trans
action that makes the alleged crime
committed only a misdemeanor--in re-
ality simply violation of the insurl
ance laws, 1t was rumored about the
district attorneys Office, however, that
indictments wifi be found on more seri-
