DETECTIVES IN
LETTER WRITING
Strips Of Paper Correspond to
Those Contained in Black
Hand Missives

Erie. Pa, July 20-Postofice In
spector James M. Woltz OF Parkers-
burg. w. Va, was a dramatic witness
for the government In the case Of
Gilbert B. Perkins and Charles
Frsnklin, private detectives charged
with using the mails to defraud.
Woltz told in the federal court the
story Of the raid in Indianapolis on
the Perkins Office April 49,, 1911, and
of the arrest of Gilbert B. Perkins
and Walter, hie son. He told of find-
Ing an envelope in the pocket of Gill
bert Perkins in which were strips
Of paper torn from letters and which
subsequently matched the torn edges
of the black hand letters received by
Chas. H. Strong, the Erie millionaire.
Woltz said the raid was made in
an effort to find portion of a cas-
ket lid that was stolen from the Scott
mausoleum in the Erie cemetery. The
government officials failed to find the
casket lid, Woltz explained, but they
did obtain possession of the strips
of paper for which they also. were
searching and these he produced on
the witness stand.
The witness told of taking all the
evidence from the Perkins office to
Pittsburg and meeting Inspectors
Craighead and Oldfield. He ssid they
had the black hand letters and the
pieces he had fitted the letters per-
fectly.
Earlier in the day Mrs. G. H. Strong
testified to employing the Perkins
detectives to run down, the ceme-
terry marauders and that Perkins said
he knew who they were, but feared
to make an arrest lest they wreak
vengeance on her. Mrs. Strong said
that when the first letter was receiv-
ed and it was turned over to Perkins
the latter said, that's just what I
expected" adding, you will proba-
bly, receive another one"
