Roberts, a lieutenant of state police, before the Extraordinary Grand Jury that indicted Walter S. Ward for first degree murder in the killing of Clarence £. Peters was made public yesterday by Rabenold & Scribner of 61 Broadway, of counsel for the accused man. 4 The famous cablegrams passing be- tween George S. Ward, father of the accused, and members of the Ward family purporting to have revealed a blackmail plot, and all other state's exhibits are not a part of the Grand Jury minutes turned over to Ward's lawyer after a legal battle with the Attorney General. The minutes do not show the contents of the cables, but are simply entered as exhibits for identification to be used if Ward goes to trial on September 4. It would only be a matter of courtesy on the part of the Attorney General tp allow Ward's counsel a glimpse of the exhibits, as the state is entitled to withhold them. f “The.minutes will show that there was abundance of evidence before the Extraordinary Grand Jury to warrant the indictment charging Ward with murder in the first degree,” said Thomas J. O'Neill, 8pecial Attorney General. Under questioning of Wilber W, Chamberlain, Deputy Attorney Gen- eral, before the Grand Jury, Lieut. Roberts said that he did not believe there had been a scuffle between Ward and Peters on the night of the shooting, near the Kensico Reservoir. “T think the man was shot right down in his tracks,” said Liput Rob- erts. “I always maintained that. At the bottom of his shoes was a film of mud and the print of his heel as if he had been standing.' It was not scratched at all. 1 called the atten- tion of the coroner to it, also to De- v (A S ——— ] Q. Did they take his shoes off in the undertaking establishment? A. Yes, sir. Q. Now the shell that was found, what became of that? A, Trooper Green turned that 38 automatic shell over to me, which I held in my pos- session until Friday of last week. On that day I turned it over to the sheriff, George Werner, who came to our barracks. We never could find the bullet. Variance in Testimony, It has been the contention of the authorities that Peters was shot in some other place than where his body was found and carried in an automo- bile to the roadside within a few feet of the spot. Ward has said that Peters was in a Stutz car with two companions near the place when he shot him after being fired at a num- ber of times. Witnesses have testified that the: fresh tracks of only one au- tomobile were found close at hand. The minutes, consisting of 1,028 pages, are now in the hands of the printer. to read the full minutes. It is undere stood that some testimony was given by Willlam Mundia, now in the West Side jail on a larceny charge. It is probable that Ward's attorneys will go before George T. Taylor, Jr., Supreme Court Justice sitting at White Plains, on Friday and submit & brief attached to the minutes making a motion for the dismissal of the first degree murder indictment on the grounds of insufficient evidence. Justice Taylor yesterday denied the motion of Ward's counsel to punish | for contempt Benjamin Simon, an in- vestigator for the Attorney General, and Michael A, Gilligan, stenographe er for the Extraordinary Grand Jury, because they did not turn over the minutes.

OAKVILLE, CONN. ays Sewed!’’ jmisunddrstanding on the part of the ployment on foreign vessels are find- ing themselves stranded here without any early hope of getting back home. In many cases jobless and penniless sailors have been arrested as vaga- bonds and thrown into French jails and, according to their stories, the same danger threatens them in a number of other foreign ports. There has lately been a disposition, the sailors say, among foreign steam- ship lines operating between Europe and American ports to bring Ameri- can seamen to Europe and drop them, either through false representation or men when signing the articles. In some instances the men are careless and sign in a casual’ way, hardly knowing or caring what they do. Some sign. for a port thinking it means a round trip, and then find themselves stranded on foreign soil. Finding they have no means to re- turn to America, many of them appeal to the American consulates. But noth- ing can be done for them except in cases of men holding seamen’s cards in the American Merchant Marine. The Y. M. C. A. at Havre has help- ed out a number of men, but the ap- peals have become so numerods re- cently that the association has reach- ed the limit of its funds for such pur- poses.

The admiralty has signel a contract with a private company which has purchased part .of the sunken ships and will start operations at once to raise them. The company is said already to have found a market for the hulks. If the operations are successful a contract will be signed for the remaining sec- tion, which includes the largest of the ships. The vessels sunk comprise ten bat- tleships, five battle cruisers and twen- ty-nine destroyers, their total tonnage being about 416,000, The contract al- ready agreed to covers twenty destroy- ers and one of the battle cruisers. The vessels were sunk by their crews opening all the seacocks and flooding the ships. This will, how- ever, make the work of the salvers much easier as it is planfed to shut the cocks and pump the water from the holds.

Cutler, aged 39, a wholesale commis- sion merchant, committed suicide yes- terday by hanging himself in his home, at 152 Esplanade avenus, Mount Vernon. Mrs. Cutler told Coroner Edward Fitzgerald that her husband had been acting queerly for some time and she decided to send him to the Bloomingdale asylum. When told of this decision, Mr. Cutler immediately went to his room and with three knitted neckties hung himself to a hook in the clothes closet of his room.
