Private Detective Accused of Manufacturing Evidence in Divorce Suit Sy LONDON, April 23.—In' Bow-street police court to-day Henry Slater, head of the best-known private detective agency in England, was held in heavy bail, charged with conspiring to pre- vent the due course of justice. With him in the dock were Albert Osborne, his lawyer, and two private detectives ! put under heavy bail. The case is a sequel to a sensational divorce suit, in which Slater was em- | | ployed to secure evidence against the husband. A decree was obtained last November, but the authorities became suspicious, and after a rehearing this week the decree was rescinded, the jury finding that the husband was induced, through the agency of Slater and Os- borne, to misconduct himself in order that his wife might i)bla.ln a divorce. The rehearing attracted great public interest. Sir Edward Clarke and two leading lawyers defended Slater, but were unable to refute the scathing ac- cusations of Solicitor General Carson, who revealed the extraordinary meth- ods pursued by the detective agency. | More than £15,000 was paid to Slater and Osborne for the evidence on which the decree was originally granted. The Solicitor General said that it was deliberately concocted by the lowest type of men and women, who perjured themselves for small sums of money. Osborne, who is a rather prominent lawyer, startled English legal circles by saying he would pay for evidence if he could not get it in any other man- ner, and that he had a right to charge as much as a client would give him, | regardless of the fixed charges which exist among all solicitors here, The Solicitor General bitterly de- nounced the existence of such an agency as Slater’s, which, he declared, hounded innocent men and women with a regularity which could scarcely be conceived except for the present dis- closures, which were all the more alarming as Slater was employed in the majority of divorce and similar cases. The arrests are expected to produce further sensational matter relating to other cases. The prisoners will come up for further hearing April 30, to-day’s proceedings being merely formal. —_————————— Police Sergeant Injured. Sergeant D. W.

LINCOLN, Neb., April 22.—The Su- preme Court of Nebraska to-day set aside a decree of divorce granted at Omaha to Mrs. Paul J. Schafer, for- merly of Napa, Cal, but now Mrs. Herbert Beck of Sacramento, and by | [§ its ruling decreed that the woman is still the wife of Schafer, although she has been living at Sacramento since October, 1802, as the wife of Beck. Schafer presented proof that his wife had secured her decree by unlawfully testifying before the court at Omaha that she had established a six months’ residence in Nebraska. Two days after getting the divorce | she married Beck in Council Bluffs, Iowa, and accompanied him to Sacra- mento, where she and her two children ; g have since lived with Beck. Schafer presented affidavits that he-was a man of good standing in his home town of Napa, where he is now deputy post- | | master. He also proved that he had | | | served as private secretary to Con- gressman Metcalf and had held other offices for many years. Last gummer Schafer found his eld- | est daughter, 11 years old, walking | with a woman on the streets of Sacra- mento. He took possession of the child, but was arrested for child stealing. Then he found that his wife, who had | suddenly left him in 1802, was the wife of Beck. He gave up the child and was released, after which ‘he ferreted out| 18 COMING WITH THE FLOTO Ithe facts concerning her surreptitious SHOWS, | divorce in Omaha.

The games committee of the Cale- | donian Club has completed the pro- gramme of events for the annual gath- ering and games to be held at Shell Mound Park on Monday, May 30.
