Gross Accused
of Threatening
Women inCaSe
Agent Of Omaha and Council Bluffs
Street Railway Company Accused
in New Affdavits.

Arthur Gross. claim agent Of the Omaha
and Council Bluffs Street Railway com
pany. was accused OF attempting to in
fiuence witnesses in the now famous
Stewart case. in two affidavits filed yes
terday in district court.
The charge is made by Mrs. John X.
Brandt, wife OF the secretary Of the
Nebraska Savings and Loan association,
and by Miss Minnie Brandt. a cousin of
the banker.
II. c. and Clinton Bronze, attorneys for
Stewart, filed the affidavits, Clinton
Bronze making one on his own account
In respect to another phase OF the matter,
which is a showing for a new trial in
this case, the other where jury tampering
by Al Keenan, is alleged to have occurred.
The two women's affidavits are Identical.
They assert that following the testimony
Of Brandt during a recess. Gross came
TO them and said:
Mr.. Brandt made a good witness. lie
did nothing to hurt us and we would
like for you to do nothing to hurt us,
too To this the women said they would
tell the truth and then Gross they say.
replied: How can you come up here and
tell all about this accident when you told
me you knew nothing about lt?"
II hIAhdHtS tnen SAID tney dlu not nave
to tell him all they knew then, and they
added that Gross next said. You did not
tell the truth. You told a lie and we will
make you swear to a lle.'
Whats Stewart to you?" next asked
Gross. John may want us to do him a
favor some time and we could do him a
favor or we could hurt him.
Mrs. Brandt asked how. She says that
Gross replied:
% course you know that we nave a
good many men in our employ
Mrs Brandt says she then told the
claim agent that he should be ashamed
TO try to coerce them and told him, you
would not talk so If l were a man."
Clinton Brome's affidavit has to do with
Attorney Henry c. Murphy's connection
with the testimony OF Barrett and Van
Cleve and he deposes that Murphy was
sought out by him and induced to dc
what he could to help stop jury tamper-
Ing and that Murphy was not actuated by
a desire to prejudice the public against
the street car company but to stop jury
fixing.

GENOA. Neb., May 3.-To the Editor
81 The Bee: In a recent issue OF The Bee
l note a small historical sketch OF the
Norwegian Independence day and the
union OF that country with Sweden. in
which you have inadvertently made some
misleading statements. Historical mac
curacy in this case, OF events happening
a hundred years ago. and that. too. of
minor Importance, is, OF course excusable.
l refer to such statements as the follow
ing:
Norway enjoyed strict independence for
only a short time, however. and to pre-
serve it's independence from other countries
and for mutual protection II Joined Sweden
and Karl Johan, a Frenchman. was chosen
king Of the two countries. this dual gov
eminent continuing until 1906.
Now. Norway. after the treaty of peace
had been signed with Denmark. did not.
as your account would imply. "join Sweden
for mutual protection from other coun-
tries" Instead, the Norwegisns then. as
in 1906, selected a Danish prince as their
king. The Karl Johan you mention was
no other than Napoleon's Marshal Berna-
dotte. the founder of the present royal
family of Sweden, and he was not chosen
by the Swedes and Norwegians Jointly as
king. He was selected by the Swedish no.
bility as heir and successor to the old
and childless king. Charles XIII.
Karl Johan, as he was then called. and
who reigned as Charles XIV, while ne was
yet crown prince Of Sweden, Joined the
European coalition against Napoleon; in
fact, commanded what was known as the
western division of those armies tina
eventually drove Napoleon into exile. 1t
was in recognition of the service of
Sweden in this war, and as a sop for the
loss of Finland, which had been wrested
from hat country by Russia, that Nor
way was given to Sweden. Norway did
not, however, tamely submit. The Swedes
entered Norway with an army, and Eng
lish men-of-war appeared before a Nor
wegian fortress on the coast. A few Skin
mishes we're fought, but no real battle; a
fort was demolished. and the Danish prince
gave up the struggle. Norway thus be.
came united with Sweden against its will,
but during this union enjoyed a measure
of independence that it had not felt for
600 years. In fact, the independence OF
Norway was not enlarged materially by
the dissolution Of the union with Sweden

Castor Reana

Castor beans are remarkably strik-
ing plants for the annual garden. They
give a rugged tropical effect when
planted In ciumps or with rank grow
ing ANNALS and perennials, such as
cannas and elephants ear. They should
occupy the center or back OF the bed
unless they are dwarf varieties. In a
single season they often grow more
than ten feet tall. For extra large
plants the seeds should be sown in
pots in a greenhouse. hotbed or win.
dow when tomato plants are started.
But large plants will grow from seed
sown In the open ground when the
weather has become settled. A dry
situation In deep and rich soil is best.
Among the most striking varieties are
Ricinus Zanzibariensis and r. Borbon-
iensis. which reach a height OF u TO
is feet. and r. Cambodgensis. which
grows only about six feet tall but has
beautiful, bronzy foliage.

PRUNING PEAR TREES.
Experiments to Prove the Value OF
Different Methods.

The following experiment in prun-
ing KieffeT pear trees was made last
season and will be repeated TO deter
mine the relative value OF time when
to prune. writes an Indiana farmer in
Farmers Review:
Experiment No. 1-One-half all new
wood was cut back before any sign OF
the bud expanding in the spring.
Experiment No. 2-Same was done
TO other trees when buds were ready
TO open.
Experiment No 3-when in full
bloom and ready to drop the bloom
other trees were cut back one-half.
Nothing further was done. the trees
needing no pruning otherwise.
Now for results: they were Just in
the order as was the pruning. Those
trees pruned early gave the best fruit
this year and the wood growth was
good. Those pruned second did not do
as well as the preceding. neither In
fruit nor wood. The third lot gave
poor fruit and but little wood growth.
This is only one trial. There NAV
have been other causes for this re-
suit, but We expect TO continue the
same process another season to de.
termine the matter more fully. We
Will also try the same process on
other varieties than Kiener.

PRETTY TRIMMING FOR GOWN
English idea of Draped Scars Gan
Be Made Extremely
Effective

Among the essentially new ideas OF
the season are the scarf-trimmed
gowns that take unto themselves all
the splendor OF the oriental. combined
with the grace OF drapery which be-
longs only TO the very early and the
very late centuries. The scarf idea
provides a very good opportunity for
woman OF moderate means to turn
the plainest OF gowns into the most
elaborate. Assuming that she pos
sesses gown of straight lines made
of some clinging fabric. and that she
knows how TO trim Il solely with an
embroidered scarf of crepe de chine
or chiffon cloth. you will see at q
glance what could be accomplished.
II she had q plain black satin gown
for instance. and draped over its one
shoulder black scarf embroidered
with colored silks and giittering
sequins and edged with a heavy black
silk fringe. would the gown not be
charming? The scarf could be ar
ranged to emphasize the best points
OF the figure.
This scarf-draping idea is primarily
OF English origin. although II has been
adopted by some of the French de-
signers. In any case. and no matter
to whom the credit may go. this bit
or drapery carries with IL a host Of
advantages.

HEAD LETTUCE FROM HorsEDs.
Now is the Time to Begin TO Plan for
Early Vegetables.

Plants were started about March !
in an ordinary hotbed and were vel

ground. Frames were made as for

were deeper, is inches back and ten
