Crowds of interested farmers from the
surrounding country, who tramped miles
through the steady rain and over the
muddy roads to the Office of Judge Rob-
ert T. Joyce, in Mount Rainier, Md,
last night to hear the expected sensa-
tional testimony in the case of Theodore
F. Schulz, charged with assault on
Helen E. Sansom, were sadly disap-
pointed when the defendant waived pre-
liminary hearing
TRAMP THROUGH MUD.
1t had been heralded for miles around
that the State had summoned a large
numOer of witnesses. and that testimony
OF the most sensational character would
be given. The hearing was scheduled
for o'clock at the little office near the
District line, but long before that hour
farmers plodded into the judges room,
splashed with mud. and with their
clothes soaked by the rain. When the
hour arrived and Justice Joyce called
those present to order, the little room
was crowded TO the door. All OF the
chairs were taken. and most of the
farmers were compelled to stand
Charles Benedict Calvert, attorney for
the def"n liant, siGniied the defendants 5
intention Of waving preliminary hearing,
and with looks OF disappointment many
in the room filed out at once to re-
turn to their homes. Attorney Robert w
Wells appeared for the family OF Miss
SAMSON, tn" siXteen-year-oId daughter Of
D. L. SAMSON, Of Mount Rainier Justice
Joyce fixed the bond OF the defendant
at 5000. John KIeine and A. H winslow
at once went security for Schulz. and
the defendant was released.
Serious Charge Changed.
The chasge which had first been made
against Schulz was criminal assault, but
upon evidence obtained later the charge
was changed to "carnal knowledge of
Helen Z. SAMSON. non compos mentis."
The witnesses in the case for the State
are Thomas Unsworth. J. B. Allison.
John Kleine. Harry King, Mrs. Joseph
Haas, Mrs. MILAN Man, Fulton Manz
DR.. II. B. Nally, and DR.. OhlendOrf
The trial Of Schulz will commence the
first Monday in October, at the Upper
Marlboro courthouse. The penalty in
the State of Maryland for the offense
with which the defendant is charged is
from twenty years Imprisonment in the
penitentaTy 10 death.
The SAMSON girl is weak-minded and
has been carefully guarded by her par
ents at the Mount Rainier house. She
had been confined to the premises and
very seldom left the house unless &C
companied. The girI mysteriously dis
appeared from her home last Saturday
and Mr.. SAMSON instituted a search i'm
mediately. The authorities at Mount
Rainier secured the country. but were
unable to find the girl
Girl Tells SOrdId Story.
Sunday morning the girl returned to-
her home and told her parents that she
had been TO the Rams Horn Inn with
Schulz. With but little solicitation from
her parents, she told the whole story.
Schulz was arrested the same day.
Feeling has been intense against the
defendant in the community, but it is
not feared that any violence will be
done. Schulz, nevertheless, seems fear
full that he will be harmed.
The entire legal proceedings last night
took only a short time, but a large group
of residents from the adjacent country
remained discussing the case until al
most midnight
