Fight on WitkoWski
Is to Be Carried
To the Grand jury

Enemies of Mayor Louis C. Witkow-
ski of Glen Echo will take their as
sault charges against the mayor to
the grand jury of Montgomery coun-
ty. To that body will also go the
mayors charge against John A. Gar
rett and his brother Laurie Garrett
This action follows the trial of yes
terday before Justice Joseph Reading
at Rockville, at the end of which the
court ruled Daniel Collins and Thorn
as A. Weaver were not guilty of as
sault on the mayor.
Shortly before the case came to an
end at p. m. last evening, the prose-
cution withdrew charges against Col
Inns, no evidence having been adduced
with respect to him, that showed him
making an attack on the mayor. AL
exander Kilgour, counsel for Mayor
Witkowski, asked the court to decide
the assault cases in which the mayor
is defendant on the evidence intro
duced in yesterdays stormy trial, but
John A. Garrett announced that the
warrants against the mayor would
be Withdrawn and an attempt made
to~get a grand jury indictment.
The prosecution countered with the
declaration that the mayor will go be-
fore the grand jury against the Gar
.retts. Considerable testimony was
heard yesterday that John A. Garrett
and his brother struck the mayor
during the embroglio of a week ago.
When Mr.. Garrett summed up for
the. defense Of Collins and Weaver
he was nearly as dramatic and fully
as bitter as Mayor Witkowski had
been in the morning.
"He> accuses of me being crooked"
shouted Garrett in a voice audible
for blocks, but he knows that it Is
not /, but he who appears to be
crooked. / am honest and every man
in Glen Echo knows 1 am honest and
my record as a public servant and
citizen win uphold my assertion"

day, has eighteen witnesses. one of
them being Sam Taylor, a farmer re-
siding near the scene of the crime, and
who claims to have heard a woman's
screams just Lefore the fatal shot. At
first, il is said, the defense intended
to use Taylor, who was reported to
have heard shouts for help after the
shot, thus according with the story told
by Beattie that he cried for assistance
after his wife was murdered.
When it developed that Taylor heard
the sounds before the murder he was
dropped by the defense and taken in
hand by the Commonwealth.
Though Jail officials are very reticent
as to the actions of Henry Beattie in
prison, it was reported today that his
nights are restless and that he talks
frequently in his sleep. His mutterings
are said to have been unintelligible.
After partaking of a good breakfast this
morning Beattie was shown New York
papers containing extensive stories of
the tragedy. He read them all
Last night after supper Beulah made
the prison lively with her singing, which
eRnetrated to every nook and Granny
u big brick Jail.
Despite reports that friends of Paul
Beattie have raised 5000 to bail him.
the prevailing opinion is that he will
remain in Jail. Paul is fond of talking,
and it is the wish of his wife that he
remain in prison until after the trial.
Faul s WlIe insisted tnat ne tell the
truth at the coroner's inquest, and she
will again insist that he stick to the
truth when he goes on the stand.
1t developed today that Beulah has
received ten offer3-nf marriage in the
last two days, several of these PROPOSE
tions coming in love sick epistles from
baltimore.
Last evening Beulah was visited by
several women members of the Amer
lean Salvation Army, who held brief
services in her cell. She seemed very
deeply affected by :he visit Of these
gospel workers.
Il fail to see the Joke" she said to-
jiay. commenting on the bogus s., 900
check which she received Yesterday
Sheriff Kemp said this afternoon that
he would put up money with which to
buy Beulah a canary bird If no one else
came forward in day or two. Beulah
was bitterly disappointed today as a
result of being unable to get the bird
because of the worthlessness of the
check she received yesterday.
Two men called at the jail at noon
to1av and asked to be allowed to take
a look at Beulah. Jailer Garnett said
he had no objection. providing Jney did
not attempt to speak to her. The three
went uustairs. but when Beulah heard
what was asked of her she nromrtIv
refused to go on exhibition. ''This isn't
a circus" she declared. az may be in a
cage, but that is no reason why should
display myself" -.

IN MEMO ORIAM

ELLIS-In loving remembrance Of our dear
nephew. HERBERT ELLIS, who died July
29 1911.
We have lost our dear nephew;
He has bid US all adieu:
He has gone to live in heaven
And his form is lost to view.
Oh, that dear one, how we miss him;
Oh, how hard to give him up;
But an angel came down for him
And removed him from our flock,
Through all pain at times he'd smile
smile of heavenly birth,
And when the angels called him home
He smiled farewell to earth.
Heaven retaineth now our treasure,
Earth the lonely casket keeps;
And the sunbeams love to linger
Where our dear nephew sleeps.
In the graveyard softly sleeping,
Where the flowers gently wave,
Lies the one we miss so dearly,
In the lonely, silent grave.
Thou are not forgotten, Herbert,
Nor will you ever be.
AS long as life and memory last
We will remember thee.

Wright. of Washington.
