Chicago, Sept. 2 .—“You are the most dangerous man in Chicago,” sald Munieipal Judge Newcomer to Albert Dahlstrom, whom he held to the grand Jury to answer serious charges. Dahlstrom, who is an itinerant evan- gelist, was arrested last May for the abduction of Martha Pederson, seven- teen years old, whom he married sub- sequently at St. Joseph, Mich. Assist ant State’s Attorney Roe accused him of causlng the downfall of four other young girls. Dahlstrom said he was a minister in the Church of “the Saints" and modestly admitted that he is a “saint.” The testimony introduced was to the effect that he had induced Martha Pe- derson to leave the residence of her parents and go to Rockford, Ill., with him before he was divorced from his legal wife. Later she went to Mad- ison, Wis.,, and Minneapolis, Minn., and her parents were ignorant of her Whereabouts. After his arrest and divorce he married the girl. “I cannot conceive of any one more disreputable, because you have taken the sacred name of Christianity to pro- mote lllegality and have preached li- centlousness in the guise of a minister of the gospel,” Judge Newcomer sald to Dahlstrom. “Although I do not advocate mob law,” he continued, turning to Dahl- strom’s lawyers, “if it were your daughter, Mr. Johnson, or Mr. Lowen- thal, you would have used a gun. 1 am surprised, yet gratified, to see that this girl's parents have held their temper and patience as well as they have done.” Johnson Named by Acclamation. Cleveland, Sept. 2} —Mayor Tom L. Johnson was nominated by acclama- tlon at the city Democratic conven- tion for mayor to oppose Congressman T. E. Burton, the Republican nominee for mayor. Mayor Johnson Is now candidate for a fourth term. In the platform adopted 3-cent fare is put to the front and the injection of national issues condemned. Accidentally Shot by His Brother.

Chicago, Sept. 2!—Frank J. Con- stantine, on trial for the murder of Mrs. Louise Gentry, took the stand in his own defense. He showed absolute composure while on the stand and gave testimony clearly and without hesitation. - He sald he was born in New York city and was twenty-three vears old. He came to this city to go | tnte the baotblacking business, as he had been -in that vocation in New York and in selling cut had made an agreement not to re-enter the business there. He said that when he engaged | a room in the Gentry home he told Mrs. Gentry that his father was a wealthy real estate man. “Did you tell the Gentrys that you were of royal blood?” “I did. Tam a descendant from Ital- ian royalty.” Constantine declared that he had heard Mr. and Mrs. Gentry quarreling many times and said that they lived unhappily. On the day of the tragedy he said he went into his room to shave and found Mrs. Gentry there making the bed. He told her that he was about to leave the city and she asked him if he would not take her with him, She insisted, according to Con- stantine, and he positively refused. Cuts Throat With Razor. She then, according to his story, picked up the razor and cut her throat. He asserted that he carried her down to the door of Dr. Doherty’s office, pounded on the door and then left her standing there while he ran for a doc- tor. He said he noticed while hunt- ing for this second doctor that there was blood on the sleeve of his coat and he thought that if he returned he would be accused of the murder and would not_receive justice in the courts because he was a stranger in the city. He then declared that he fled from Chicago. Constantine said he had always wished to give himself up, but had been prevented from doing so by the members of his family. On cross-examination Constantine declared that Mrs. Gentry had thrown her arms about him and otherwise shown her infatuation for him. Later in the day the state introduced letters from Mrs. Gentry to her husband showing her devotion to him. They were written a few days before her death. Constantine was asked by Assistant State’s Attorney Holt to take the razor with which Mrs. Gentry was killed and indicate how she had drawn it across her throat. He refused to touch the razor and would not go through the pantomime asked by the attorney. He denied that he was afraid of the razor, but said he did not wish to handle it. g MYSTERY IN SUICIDE.

Toward midnight she lay down for a while. When she arose she resumed her pleadings to be per- mitted to see White. She was told again that White was too ill to see her then, but that she might see him some other time. Then she resumed her pacing of the floor, which continued until just be- tore dawn, when a pistol shot was heard. A servant ran to the room and found Mrs. Carter dead on the floor with a bullet wound in her head. It was not until more than five hours after the woman shot herself that the volice were notified. By that time the body had been removed from White's residence. John J. White is & son of John Jay ‘White, who died about four years ago leaving a fortune to his five children. ‘White’s family is now at Bar Harbor.

CANADA HELPED BY TREATY Convention With Japan Has Preved of Great Advantage to the Industries of the Dominion and Precipitate Ac- tion Might Be Regretted. Ottawa, QOnt., Sept. 2.,—Sir Wilfrid Laurier has sent the following tele- gram to Mr. Verville, M. P., in reply to & request from the Dominion Trades and Labor congress at Winnipeg that notice be given to abrogate the Japa- nese treaty and that in the meantime the importations of Japanese be kept down to the number arranged for some time ago between both coun- tries: “I have given due consideration to your request that immediate steps be taken to terminate the treaty with Ja- van. I would observe that this treaty, when brought into existence some fif- teen years ago, did not apply to Can- ada and that some few years ago, in response to the repeated expressions of public opinion and with a view of affording to Canadian producers an opportunity of taking their share of the growing Japanese trade, the Cana- dian government became a party to this treaty and that it was unanimous- ly ratified by the Canadian _parlia- MUST MOVE SLOWLY. ment. The treaty has proved of Ereat advantage and our trade with Japan: under it has considerably increased. “You base your ‘appeal for the de- nunciation of this' treaty on the alle- gatlon that a crisis has arisen in Brit ish Columbia by reason of the unprece. dented influx of Japanese, ‘While it is true that most regrettable incldents have lately occurred in Vancouver there seems reason to doubt that the cause was the influx of Japanese, as | am in possession of a telegram from the mayor of Vancouver which ex- pressly avers that the disturbances were directed against Asiatics gener- ally rather than against Japanese. Un- der such clrcumstances any precipl: tate action might be regrettable and before committing themselves to such a course the government think that they should carefully inquire into the causes which, within the recent past, have caused a greater influx to our shores than previously of Oriental people.” AT LEAST FIVE KILLED.
