Mrs. Minnie B. SteIIo, in Filing
Suit, Declares Also She Was
Driven From Home.

That her husband, Theodore ]. Stello.
a saloonkeeper at IL 4th street northeast
beat her, threatened her life and almost
choked her to death, are some oil the
charges brought by Mrs. Minnie B.
Stello in a suit for a legal separation
filed by her today in the District Supreme
Court Mrs. Stello says her husband
drove her from home last month, and she
is now in destitute circumstances, with
out money to buy food.
According to the petition filed by At
torney Walter P. Plumley, the Stellos
were married April 81. 1904, and lived
happily about six months. Shortly after
that time. the wife states. her husband
began to treat her cruelty. cursing and
swearing at her, blackening her eyes, re-
peatedly striking her and threatening her
life.
In May, 1910, Mrs. Stello says, she
asked her husband for money to buy
food She declares he struck her twice
on the head with his fist and choked
her, and declared he would cut her throat
with a penknife.
Threw Beer Glass at Her, She Says.
Last January, without cause, Mrs.
Stello AYERS, her husband, becoming en-
ragged at the supper table, threw beer
glass at her. barely missing her, and
SCATTERING the missile against the wall.
Her husband then kicked the table. the
wife says, broke the dishes and attempted
to hit her over the head with beer
bottle.
i Last month, Mrs. Stello informs the
court. her husband ordered her from the
house. telling her he had sold his bust
ness and the new owner wanted to move
in. The wife expressed doubt as to the
genuinenesS of the sale and thinks It
merely ruse Of her husband to get rid
of her.
Several affidavits corroborating the
charges Of the wife are attached to her
bill of complaint, one being from ner
brother. Allen Bussius, chief clerk Of the
United States pension agency.

W.T.. MATT|NG[Y OFFERS
SITE FOR PLAYGROUND
Forty-Thousand-Foo Tract at

Accepted.

William F. Mattingly today Strengthened
out the Mount Pleasant Fairgrounds tan

a playground instead of the 14th street
and Columbia road property.

they expressed themselves this afternoon
as being delighted over the solution Of the
problem.
Had not Mr.. Mattingly come TO the
rescue residents of the Mount Pleasant
section would have been without play
ground facilities after Friday, as notice
had been given by the owners OF the
1Sth and Park road site to vacate by
that date. Various efforts had been
made to nave this notice revoked, but
there were no indications that the own
ers would consent to a further use Of
the ground as a playground, except to
grant an option on the property until
February | next, conditional upon the
deposit of forfeit of $1,000 should
Congress not decide to buy the land
Larger Than Present Playground.
The Mattingly tract. which is east of
I4th street, extends from Park road to
Kenyon street. 1t is half as large again
as the present Fairgrounds site. In ad-
dition to this IL has number of shade
trees and should lend itself to treatment
so that II may become one OF the best
equipped Fairgrounds in the city.
MIR. Moses this afternoon said that the
building growth OF that section of Wash
inEton is such that II is his belief the
new site, in the course of two or three
years, will be nearer the center of popu-
lation than the present one. He declared
that Mr.. Mattingly has rendered serv-
ice which Mount Pleasant citizens would
long have cause to be thankful for.
Arrangements already have been set
on foot for installing the playground ap-
paratus on the new site. This work
probably will be completed by tomorrow
or next day. The playground will be
kept open, I'm all probability, until the
beginning of cold weather.

BANKERS PREDICT PEACE.
Berlin Reports, However, Considered
Unduly Optimistic.

BERLIN September 20 - Several
bankers stated on the bourse today that
they had been informed by the for
eisn Office that the Moroccan question
would be settled in two or three days
Well informed persons consider this
unduly optimistic.
The adoption Of the verbal method OF
negotiations, it is thought, will facili-
tate settlement, as one OF the chief
impediments heretofore has been the re-
luctance of either side to abandon
points once formally proposed in writ
ing lest such action be construed as a
sign Of weakness.

DEPARTMENT WILL LET
LIEUT.. COL. DUNN RETIRE
Decision Made in Recognition
of His Valuable Service
to the Army.

As a result of a reconsideration OF
the case of Lieut.. Col. Beverly w.
Dunn of the ordnance department Of
the army that officer will be placed on
the retired list on his own application
after more than thirty years active
service. There are several features of
interest in this case.
Col Dunn is the inventor Of Dunnite,
a powerful explosive. and is one OF the
leading ordnance experts in the United
States. For many years past he has
been stationed at New York city. as
sssting the big transportation compa-
MES in the consideration of the best
methods Of safely carrying high ex-
plosives.
Department concluded that Col. Dunn's
services were greatly needed in the
ordnance department Of the army as the
result of the death of the commandant
of the Rosk Island Qn) arsenal. Ac-
cordingly he was detached from his spe-
cial duty at New York and ordered to
Washington for duty as assistant to the
chief of ordnance. The transportation
services and Col. Dunn himself desired
to complete certain investigations then
under way.
Application for Retirement.
To accomplish this he applied to the
War Department for permission to retire
under the thirty years service clause.
His application was rejected by the de-
partment. however, and the officer was
notified that if he desired to continue his
work at New York he might resign from
the army. Col. Dunn accepted that ad.
vice and rendered his resignation. which
was accepted to take effect October l.
Recently. however. friends of Col. Dunn
induced the officials Of the War Depart
ment to reconsider the case, and. in recog.
milton of his valuable service to the
army, permit him to be placed on the
retired list, instead of requiring his COM
plete elimination from the service. This
brought about favorable action today,
and thus Col. Dunn will be at liberty to
continue in his civil employment.
Col. Dunn is a native of Louisiana and
was graduated from the Military Acad-
! envy in 1888.

MURDER THE CHARGE
indictments for Lynching Me-
gro at Gainesville, Pa.
REPORT OF THE GRAND JURY
Two Men Held as Principals, Two
as Accessories.
CITY POLICE FORCE CENsURED
Court Holds That Murder by Mob
Is Cowardly-Supremity
of Law Urged.

COATESVILLE, Pa, September 20
The most important development in the
negro lynchins case came today, when
warrants charging two members of the
mob with murder and two policemen with
involuntary manslaughter We're issued by
Judge Butler upon the recommendation
Of the special grand jury. The jurors
were discharged. They had been in ses-
sion for three weeks, and it had been
charged that they were reluctant to take
action:
List of Indictments.
The men indicted are Richard S. Tuck
err, insurance agent. the first man to enter
the hospital Sunday night. August -,
when lack Walker was dragged by
mob from his bed and burned to death,
and Walter hardwood. mllhand, who, it
is claimed. took only an obscure part in
the Iynching. Both were indicted for
murder
Policeman Stanley S. Howe, who was
on guard at the hospital the night of
the lynching and who, it is claimed did
not exert himself to prevent the crime.
and the chief of police, who, it is claimed.
failed to perform his duty properly, were
indicted for involuntary manslaughter.
Report Of the Jury.
The grand jury report censures the en-
tire police force of Gainesville, Burgess,
Shallcross and the Brandy wine fire COM
pany for failing to further the ends of
justice. The citizens Of Gainesville and
vicinity having knowledge of the lynch
ing are condemned because their attitude
throughout the inquiry hampered the
work of investigation.
Judge Butler, in discharging the jury,
said:
THAT no information has been obtained
is no disgrace to YOU You have shown
every one that the law must be supreme.
Murder by mob differs only from MUIR
der by an individual because the former
is more cOWardly.'
Tucker Regarded as Leader.
The jury in its report says that
Tucker was the leader of the mob
that lynched Walker, and that I'm
stead, the police chief, and Howe and
other policemen of the borough should
have prevented the burning of the
negro.
"Umstead," the report said. had full
knowledge that the mob had collected,
and he refused to dispense it or to
direct his subordinates to perform their
duty In effect his conduct and acts
assisted the actual perpetrators of the
crime"
Policeman Howe. the jury reported,
although fully armed, did not even
draw his weapon or threaten the slight
est injury to any member of the mob.
Instead of doing his duty he aided and
abetted the lynchers."
Markwood's Alleged Boast.
Regarding Walter hardwood, who is
thirty-one years old. the jury said that
he was a member of the crowd and
that after the negro had been burned
to death he exclaimed by =, boys,
we made a clean job of it,"
The jury reported that it found that
the crowd had acted like holiday one.
and we regret to add in 1T were a
few women"
In addition to those indicted today
eight others three men and five youths
are already under indictment in con-
nection with the lynching.
