 There was a conference at the de- partment which had for it's object the framing of a law to create jurisdic- ton for the case, and it is practically settled that the bill introduced in the house by Representative w. E, Humphrey of Washington will be used as the basis.
 This bill provides that the accused steamship companies should be barred from American ports on penalty of

States Attorney Says Points Neoes. sary for Conviction Have AL ready Been Proven and
 Case Is Won.

Wheeling, w. Va, Jan. 16.-The legal muckrake of the prosecution had plowed deeply into the fertile field of the Schenk poisoning mystery, with the result that it turned up Dan z. Phillips, a clerk in a local music store, 2S years old, who, wriggling and Frightened in the crowded court room, betrayed Mrs. Schenk, the stout and pink-skinned defendant wife of the millionaire pork packer, John Schenk
 He accused the woman of courtlng him; of coming to the store with her invalid husband and making eyes at him over the counter, of pursuing him with telephone messages, per sonal calls and letters until he be- seeched her to use discretion.
 Phillips a Wiling Pet.
 Phillips confessed being willingly pampered by Mrs. Schenk; to being carried of on motor car trips, the tonneau loaded with caviar and chick en sandwiches, beer and champagne. The trips, he said, were taken always in the darkness. Midnight, he testi- fled, was the fayorite hour.
 Tells of Her Gifts.
 He admitted that he had welcomed and accepted gifts from her, had cheerfully slipped the diamond scarf pin she gave him to his four-in-hand, stuck the diamond ring which she presented to him on his finger, sport ed on stormy days the raincoat of extra fine quality he got from her, and after their midnight motor car trips had, in the privacy of his own room. showed his feet into the moroc- co leather slippers she had awarded to him. The very night before her arrest on the charge of poisoning her husband he confessed to spooning expedition with her in the motor car.
 Asserts His Case Is Won.
 Prosecuting Attorney Handlan ex- pressed his belief that the case against the defendant had been clinched.
 We have established the fact that two kinds of poison were admins tered to John o. Schenk, and we have established the motive through the testimony of Daniel Phillips said MT. Handlan.
 Mrs. Schenk was in love with Philhps-that is the reason she want ed to get rid of her husband Lundy Wilson, Mrs. Schenk's chauffeur. Will give testimony of highly sensational nature: in fact his testimony will be the real thriller of the trial. Nurse Kline will testify as to Mrs. Schenk being the only one who administered the poison.
