or two. Phaff was hurrying home on the Leviathan when he was ar rested September 16 on the piracy charge. He magistrate said:
 According to the information which we have obtained, Phaff was anxious to arrive in America in time to take delivery of the liquor cargo which had been purchased in England. Now Adelmann or his agents will receive the shipment and the defendant fears his share of the profits in the enterprise will be lost. Phaff told me: My share of this profit amounts to s35.0O0.'"
 The magistrate said he replied 10 Phaff: Just cable Adelmann to de- posit that amount with the French consul general in New York and I will let you out on bail imme- diateiy."
 The sworn statement of one Cap tain Walters that Phaff offered him slO,0oO to pull off" the Mulhouse piracy is, besides Phaff's alleged confession, the only additional evi- dence connecting the defendant with the charge of being an instigator of the piracy. Walters statement de- clares he refused Phaff's offer be- cause he had wife and child and considered the undertaking too dan tc in l co-defendant with Captain Ford before the Montreal courts on the charge of piracy in connection with the footing of the ship Lutzen which belonged to Phaff and Adelmann.
 Phaff has told the French court that his arrest and detention here were for the purpose of preventing him appearing as witness in Mon trcal.
 An affidavit from James Kimpton, supercargo of the Muhouse at the time she was footed describes the captain of the pirates as literally "two-gun" man. Kimpton said tho pirate leader kept his revolvers with him at all times and, during tho seven days the looters were aboard the French steamer. he even had the weapons on the table when he was eating in the captains cabin. Sometimes, if was said, he even held one of the revolvors in his left hand while he ate with his right.
 Other affidavts have developed that the pirates market price for liquor during the latter part of June ran from SIS per case for cheaper grades of whiskcy 10 BPS for cham pagno. Ii is stated that 2,400 cases of whiskey were delivered to buyer in America for $15 per case,
