HIS LOVE LACKED SOUL.
WaIling Says Word Is Most Ambiguous
in English Language.

New York. March 3.-'Love? That is
the most ambiguous term in the Eng
lish language" declared William e.
Walling, wealthy Socialist, when asked
point blank if he ever loved Anna
Grunspan. who is suing him for 500, 900
for alleged breach Of promise to marry
her. After considerable effort to arrive
at a complete definition of the word
the defendant declared that 'soul'' was
lacking in his attachment for the
plaintiff
He endured with embarrassment IN
the late afternoon session the ordeal Of
hearing many of his letters read IN
court and he strongly objected to some
of the translations made from the
French. In one letter he compared
Miss Grunspan to Milton's poetic con-
trasts, "'L'Auegro'' and I'll Pensoroso."
because she was glad and sad'' by
turns. Walling said that at that time
he did not know what love really
meant.
You have undergone a changer he
was asked.
"a revolution" Walhng answered.
"A Russian revolution?' asked the
lawyer.
ct do not care to drag anyone else
into this affair." the witness said
firmly.
LIS WllS, WIN was MISS AIlIld 0LIult-
sky, is Russian.
Mr.. Walling admitted on the witness
stand that when he left New York t.
investigate political and social condi-
tions in Russia it was part of his plan
to take with him across the frontier
some Jewish woman who should figure
on his passport as his wife.
Did you have any particular woman
in view?' he was asked.
1T did not answered Walling.
His testimony mainly was an attack
on the character of Miss Grunspan. He
told in detail how he met her on the
streets of Paris, how they travele 1
over half of Europe together, his ef-
forts to be rid of her and how he con-
tinued to send her money after they
separated.
On cross s-examination Walling was
questioned closely about the oath he
took when he made application at the
American embassy in Paris for the
passport in which Miss GrunSpan was
described as his wife.
81 swore to something false he ad
mitted. but cid not break my oath of
allegiance Had 1 known that I was
obliged to swear to my application, to
swear that Miss Grunspan was my
wife. I might no have made applica
ton. The whole affair seems ticklish
to me. I have worried about it since
and believe it was probably an offense
against the law"

RECALL.
Congressman Scott Makes a
Speech in the House
In Opposition to the Initiative
and Referendum.

Washington, March S.-Representa-
tive c. F. Scott of Kansas, in speech
in the house today attacked the initia-
tive and referendum and recall, char
acterizing them as Revolutionary and
subversive of our present system of
government, a declaration in effect
that representative government is a
failure. A new school of statesmen
has arisen" he said. wiser than
Washington or Hamilton: wiser than
Lincoln, Sumner, or Benton; wiser
than Garfield, Blaine, Mckinley, or
Taft, knowing more in their day than
all the people have learned in all the
days of the years since the republic
was founded"
He said he should hesitate to intro
duce into our system of government a
device which had it been in vogue in
the past would have made it possible
for the Tories to have recalled Wash
ington, the copperheads to have re-
called Lincoln and the jingoes to have
recalled Mckinley" Above all he
said we should hesitate to introduce
into our political system a device
which would subject to recall a judge
whose decision happened not to accord
with the passion or the prejudice of
the hour.
He said the statutes of every state
in the Union provide way by which
recreant officials may be ousted from
office or otherwise punished.
He said the initiative and referen-
dunn made it possible for a few people
to suspend a law which a legislature
may have passed in plain obedience to
the mandate of a majority.

AN ARREST NEAR.
Police Find Important Clue to
Platt Murder.
Get a Bloody Coat in the Elm
stein Store.

An arrest for the Benjamin Plat
murder will probably be made before
night
The police today found the first
tangible clue that has yet been found
1t is a blood stained coat that was OBJ
tanned by the police in the second
hand store of Nathan Einstein at SIS
North Kansas avenue, next door to the
Platt store in North Topeka.
The police will not discuss the mat
ter further than to say that an arrest
will be made soon. Sergeant Dan Car
den, when asked for a statement at
2:30 today, said:
1--WE expect to make an arrest with
in "a hours. That is all I can say"
The coat was found this morning. 1t
was noticed by some one who entered
the Einstein store, who informed the
police. The splotches OF blood were
plainly noticeable, though an effort
had been made to remove them with
turpentine. Einstein said he had
bought the coat from 9 tramp some
time ago, but the police say that the
stains are fresh and smell of tur-
pentine still clings to the garment.
Einstein is the man who notified
Samuel Freidberg, the jeweler, of the
death of Platt and he assisted in the
search and was one of the witnesses at
the inquest. The police have evidence
store on the afternoon of the murder.
They have therefore concluded that
Linstein knows more about the murder
than he has yet told but whether he IS
to be arrested or not the police will not
say. The officers claim that he was
not on friendly terms with Mr.. Piatt.
The murder of Bejamin Platt, an
aged dealer in second hand clothing,
was one of the most brutal and revolt
ing in the history of the city. The old
man was beaten over the head with u
club or other instrument until he was
dead His body was robbed Of over
800 and dragged behind the counter IN
his store and covered with old clothes.
The front door was locked but the
doors at the rear left open. The body
was found by Platt's daughter, Mrs.
Samuel F'reidberg, on Wednesday even
ing. FEBRUARY %, and he had probably
been killed soon after noon on that
day.

Anyway he said it was a fine day
