Testimony of the Blind,

Before the trial was half ended Il
was apparent that most credence was
placed in the testimony for the de-
PENDANT.
That is because he has two blind
men testifying for him." said a man
who has served on many iuries.
When 1t comes to a question of mem.
DRY the word of a blind man goes
further in a courtroom than that of a
person with good eyes. 1t is with the
Jurymen that his testimony really
counts, but the judge and lawyers are
also impressed. This is taking into
consideration, of course, that the blind
man has a reputation for veracity.
We assume that with the loss of one
faculty others have developed. What
a man cannot see he hears, and his
mind stores up. Our faith in the re.
tentiveness Of a blind mans memoir
has been frequently justified. Where
a person with all his senses would be-
come confused and testify vaguely,
the blind man can repeat a converse,
ton verbatim"

Modern Stv|e of
HoId-Up Tried
in This Citv
THIEF GOT $47

To ask a friend to take a walk
with you and then when you have
him in lonely place to pull out a
revolver and demand his money is
the modern way of committing a
hold-up If a highway robbery in this
city last night can be taken as an
example. According to the investi-
cation made by the police the fore
going is the way Peter Macrco rob-
bed Cartella Debedict last night and
then disappeared from this city.
The first news the police had of
the robbery was about o'clock last
night when Patsy Sarly, proprietor
of boarding house at 437 New
Brunswick avenue, notified them
that Macrco had done the trick and
left town. Patrolmen Martin and
Kasprzak were Immediately sent to
the house and although they search
ed the neighborhood they were I'M
able to find any trace of the fugitive.
They were told by Sarly that Macrco
had brother in Newark and that 1t
was likely that he would go there.
According to the boarding house
proprietor, both men have been at
his place for some time and were the
best of friends. They ate supper to-
gether last night and about o'clock
Macroo asked Debedict to take a
little walk. The latter was agree
able and the two crossed over to
State street and started toward
Maurer. When near the A S. & r.
plant Debedict declares Macrco sud
denly stopped and pulling out a re-
volver told him to sput his money on
the ground. Debedict, who is in the
habit of carrying a roll, pulled out
SAT, the contents of his pocket, and
did as he was told.
Macrco, he says, Immediately pick
ed it up and pointing the revolver at
him again, told him to beat It,"
Debedict ran home and told the
boarding house man what had hap
pened and in the meantime Macrco
disappeared.

WANT TO ERECT
NEW POLISH
CHURCH HERE

There may be another Polish
Catholic church here in the near
future. Parishioners claiming they
represent $50 families of the St.
stephens Polish Catholic church,
have purchased twelve lots extending
from Hall avenue, near Penn street,
to Jeffreys street, and intend to begin
the erection of another edifice as
soon as they get permission from
Bishop James A. McFaul, of the
Trenton diocese, to begin work. The
action OF these members of st.
Stephens parish followed a demon
STRANGE meeting held July IL in
Pulaski hall, which was attended by
some 400 members of the parish. The
assemblage was called together to
place on record a public protest
against the continuing of Rev. Joseph
Urban as priest of st. Stephen s
church. This was Immediately after
the transferrance of Rev. Peter
Wieczorek from temporary priest at
this place to charge in New Bruins
wick. The two factions were alien
ated when Rev. Zielinskt was priest
here last year. Protest caused his
transferrence by the bishop and his
curate, Father Wieczorek, was tenn
porarily placed In charge of the
church. He seemed to be liked by
all factions and when he was re-
moved and Father Urban placed here,
Immediately the church became again
divided. John TothowsH is chair
man of the opposition organization.
Bishop McFaul has received an ap-
plication from the faction opposed to
the present priest to allow them to
erect a new church. After consider
ing the application for some time,
the bishop sent for a committee of
the partisans, who went to Trenton
and held a conference with him Sat
urday. They win not divulge the
outcome of the session until tonight,
when they will explain at a meeting
called to consider the bishops mes
sage.
The advocates of new edlfice not
only desire the church for the oppo-
sition they harbor for the present
priest, but they say the present
church Is too small for a parish num-
bering more than 5000 people. 1t
Is believed that Bishop McFaul would
favor the erection of mammoth
church on the site of the present
edifce, rather than have two
churches in different parts. Before
the advocates of the new church pro-
ceed they will hear the message of
the bishop tonight at zawlin's Zail-
inskis hall.

HUERTA PLAYS
TO GAIN TIME
by United Press Wire.

Special by United Press Wire.
Washington, August 2S.-Presi-
dent Huerta today made concessions
in his stand against the American
mediation plan, Special Envoy Lind
cabled that the de facto president
had withdrawn his request of an ex-
change of ambassadors, made in the
original note rejecting the Wilson
proposals In which Huerta had in eff
feet, requested that the entire sit
uation be allowed to remain in status
quo until after the presidential cleo
ton In October.
The substance of Lind's digest of
the latest communication from the
de facto president was made public
here today. Lind did not confirm the
part that Huerta had accepted the
peace terms entire. He advised the
President that he would remain in
Mexico indefinitely. The most signt-
flcant clause in Lind's reply stated
1.-The request for exchange of ambas-
sadors Is withdrawn, but it Is hoped
that present embassies continue In
personnel until after the October
election" The Huerta note, Judged
from tho Lind condensation, Is be-
lieved by officials to be merely an
other step In the Mexican government
plan to side-step the issue. Another
message from Lind was received
early today and laid before the Pres
ident by Secretary Bryan. No inti-
nation of it's contents was made
known.
"All 7 can say Is that 1t was very
encouraging, the secretary declared.
Bryan said that Governor Lind will
not leave Mexico today. He would
not indicate Linds further move
ment, but said the special envoy's
actions were largely in his own
hands and were not dictated from
Washington.
