BANKRUPTCY
CRUSADE BY
STAR WINS
Lawyer Named as Receiver for
Jacob WitkOwsky Must
Be Own Attorney.

In the appointment of Edward K
McGlynn. an attorney of this city, al
receiver for Jacob Witkowsky, of 81
Prince street, is shown the positive re-
suit OF the Evening STARS crusade
for improvement in bankruptcy prac-
tise, as Judge Rellstab, in the United
States District Court at Trenton, in
structed the receiver that he, being a
lawyer, is not to employ counsel but
do his own legal work.
When this became known today
throughout legal and business circles
numerous persons attributed the new
rule as a direct result of the Eve
ming STARS recent exposure of bank
ruptcy practise and congratulations
We're exchanged.
Theodore McCurdy Marsh, of the law
firm of Raymond, Mountain, Van Blar-
com & Marsh, who filed the petition
against Witkowsky, was asked about
Mr.. McGlynn's appointment.
yes, he was instructed not to ap-
point counsel for himself, and it is
understood that the federal judges in
tend to enforce this new rule in order
that bankrupt estates may not be un-
necessarily burdened."
Other lawyers declared they under
stood there was to be a new order OF
things in the bankruptcy practise, and
the conditions of Attorney McGlynns
appointment verified their belief. 1t is
estimated that many thousands of dol
lars could have been saved on bank
rupt estates if this rule had been en-
forced heretofore.
RecaiVer McGlvnn took nossaasion of
Witkowsky's dry goods store this after
noon. The involuntary petition was
filed by several New York creditors
who had attempted to make settle
ment with the bankrupt but failed. It
was rumored that Witkowsky had given
chattel mortgage on his stock and
the creditors decided to ask for an i'm
mediate accounting.

INDICTMENT
NOTQUASHED
Court Refuses to Allow Possessed
Wife's Body to Be
Brought Back.

That County Prosecutor Wilbur A.
Mott did all that was required Of
him when he furnished Frank M. Nc
Dermit with the fact that the State
would say that Allison M. MacFarland
used cyanide of potassium to kill his
wife, Evelyn MacFarland, was the de-
cision handed down by Supreme Court
Justice Samuel Kalisch today.
McDermit appeared before the jus
tice with the request that he be given
further particulars as to what the
State intended to use in the case. He
asked that he be given a copy of the
report of the autopsy made by County
Physician Mckenzie and copy of the
report of the New York labatory that
made an analysis of the contents of
the stomach of the dead woman.
Prosecutor Mott informed the court
that he had no such report, but would
use the persons named in the trial by
calling them as witnesses.
Justice Kalisch intimated that even
If Mr.. Mott had such reports, McDer-
nit, as counsel for the defense, would
have no right to request copies of them.
McDermit also made a request that
the body be exhumed and brought back
to this city. This brought an objec-
ton from Mott, who said that Mac
Farland had made all arrangements
for the burial of his wife and had
directed that the body be shipped to
Rockland, Me.
As final effort McDermit asked that
the indictment against MacFarland be
quashed as faulty, in that ii did not
specify specific time of death or how
the poison was administered. This
was also refused by Justice Kalisch,
who told McDermit that inasmuch as
Chief Justice Gummere was to try the
case he could renew his request be-
fore the case came to trial

The State of New Jersey and the
government men employed by DIR.
Wiley, the pure-food expert, received a
knockout blow today when Judge
Charles L. Carrick, of the First Dis
trict Court. Jersey City, declared
Schwarz Brothers innocent of the
charge brought by the State that they
had been violating the pure-food law.
The picked meat" case, as first
brought to the notice of the public,
created sensation. 1t was charged
that the Schwarz Company had picked
putrid horse and COW flesh for human
consumption. Five specific charges
were made against the concern. the
first of which was that it had picked
a diseased COW.
DR.. W. H. Callahan, government
inspector, told on the stand that he
had brought in this COW from West
Hoboken, marked it with indelible ink
and had later found it in the picking
house. Referring to this and the testi-
mony of the other government men,
Judge Carrick said:
1.-THE zeal of the government inspec-
tors to find what they were led by in
terested parties to believe they would
lind seems to have misled them into
making the charges upon which this
action is based.''
The judge also said that if what the
inspectors charged were true he could
not even then find the defendants
guilty for the reason that the act un-
der which they operated read as fol-
lows:
mo article shall be deemed to be
adulterated when specially prepared for
export to any foreign country, If pre-
pared and packed according to the di
rertion of the foreign purchaser; and If
no substance is used in the preparation
or packing of such article which is p o.
hibited by the laws of the foreign coun-
try for export to which said article was
prepared"
Judge Carrick declared that in his
opinion the firm never sold it's product
for domestic consumption but alto
gether for export use. He also declared
that since two shipments were sent to
Holland, and that a representative of
the Holland firm, Jacob Nyveen &
Sons, Grooming, Holland, was in the
Kearny plant when the horse meat was
prepared he had no doubt that the
firm in every way complied with the
laws of Holland and with the demands
of the firm to which they sold the
picked horse meat.
In brief DR.. Callahan's story was
this: Wednesday morning, July 26, he
was told to go to West Hoboken with

Solution of Mysterious
Murder.

HYDE PARK. Mass, Dec. 23.-After
working diligently since 1880 o'clock
last night in an effort to solve the
mystery of the murder of Bridget
Pritchard, a pretty 1S-year-old Irish
girl, Police Captain Franklin Grant

fate intended for another. Miss Pritch-
ard, a maid employed in the house
hold of w. B. Vose, was stabbed in
the back by an unknown italian while
crossing the bridge over the New
Haven railroad.
Miss Pritchard had no enemy, so
far as known, and at no time has she
been in the company Of man since
she arrived in this country from her
fathers home in Bally Bay, County
Monaghan Ireland on June 1. except
when she was accompanied by one

COW. He returned that night and
left the COW on the skinning floor. The
next morning he saw the animal cut
into quarters, and he put his indelible
mark on them. According to the in
spector the COW hung there until Sat-
urday morning, when it was taken to
the picking house with other carcasses.
At noon that day he declared that he
saw in the houses two quarters upon
which he had put his mark.
The defense contended that the COW
Callahan says he saw on the skinning
hoor next day was not the one he
brought, but another that had been
brought into the place after he had
left it, and that these cows were sent
to the rendering plant and not to the
pickle house.
Judge Carrick stated that he believes
that the picking of horse flesh for ex-
