Richmond, Va, Sept. 6--While
counsel for both sides in the trial of
Henry Clay Beattie, Jr., conferred
with Judge Watson today concerning
legal basis for the instructions to be
given the jury at Chesterfield Court
House, detectives for the common
wealth are investigating a charge
that Beulah Binford was an access
sorry before the fact
The prosecution applied to Judge
Watson to delay the release of the
girl from custody, at least until to-
morrow.
Judge Watson received telegram
from Chicago advising that Paul,
cousin Of Henry. be indicted as an
accessory, the Chicagoan declaring
he would come to Chesterfield to tes-
tily, if desired.
Detective Scherer tonight repu-
dated any such purpose as to Beat
tie, but said that the investigation
as to Miss Binford had not been com
pleted.

to it" said Scherer tonight and 1t Is
probable that Beulah will be releas-
ed tomorrow. Yet we are working
on the information received and will
do so regardless Of her release or
the verdict in the case"
He made this statement immed-'
lately after leaving the county jail
where he talked with Miss Binford
tonight. The latter fretted at her
long detention and accused the pros
ecution of preventing her from testi-
fying because they knew she could
"get bigger contract on the stage
had she been allowed to take the
stand.
When she learned of the investi-
CATION made today she was greatly
irritated as she had hoped to gair
her freedom tomorrow.

that he hoped to eat dinner with
his family on Sunday next. eXclaim-

The final draft was made by Judge
Watson and included the usual per-
functory requests Of the defense that
the indictment be quashed because
of the reasonable doubt" and the
similar instructions OF the com
monwealth that the jury find the ac-
cused guilty.
1t is not thought likely that the
lawyers will be able to finish their

they will be continued on Friday

ing 10 the unprotected state. Peren'
malls, especially, need very little
mulching. The entire purpose OF
protection is to maintain an equable
tenn perature about the plant, through
out the winter.
Two favorite methods Of protecting
roses are. Lay plants down and
cover them with earth, not too thick
ly. They may be staked down ana
then covered with straw. When there
are individual rose-hushes about TIE
garden, every plant should be allowed
a separate jacket of straight straw.
In covering individual bushes the
following methods should be followed
| If the p ant is unable to stand erect,
stake should be driven into the
ground beside 1T, the branches should
be tied securely to the stake. Then
cap or h1od Of straight straw should
be placed over the top Of the plant,
Straw should be placed all about the
plant La most cases, after the tls
yer is securely tied 1T is we'll to add
second. The whole covering should
be tied in the middle and top and
bottem. The top straws Of the side
layers should tib under the cap.
Rhododeudrons and other evergreens
need protection principally from the
hot runs and dry winds Of March.
They should at least be shaded and a
mulch three or four inches In depth
placed on the ground about them. ln
some instances the whole bush has
been boxed. This is effective but
unsightly. Boards or evergreen
boughs may be used to shade Rhode
dendrons and other shrubs of that
kind. English ivy is easily saved by
covering with straw mats.
In protecting perennlals and bulb
beds, the work is light. A COVERING
of leaves, strawy manure, and course
hay, three or four inches deep, lie all
that Is needed. Straw manure should
not be used unless nothing else il
handy, as 1t has tendency to pack
too closely. Strawberries should be
mulched with straw, Blackberries
may be staked down and covered
with earth. 1t is really very little
work to save the shrubbery from the
freezing and thawlng water. A little
work now will be more than repaiC
