DE “OA CLARK Wh VICTIM OF PLOT. Authorities Find No Evidence _ Against Professor Accused of Putting Poison in Barrows’s Well to Kill Family. AY PROVE A CONSPIRACY. ‘Mrs. Terry and Brother, Who Caused Prisoner's Arrest, Are Sure He Is Gulity, but Admit They Can Show * No Proof. \ FALL RIVER, Mass., Oct. 11—Devel- opments more eensational thar the ar- ‘rest of Prof. Philip Clark are expected in the mystery surrounding the poison- ing of the water in the well at Frank Barrow's home. The evidence which ‘was expected to materialize against Clark by the authorities has not been found so far, tut instead facts are com- ing out which would tend to show Prof. Clark's innocence and indicate a con- spiracy in which the accused could not have figured except as a possible victim of it. “L will not only prove my innocence,” gaid Prof. Clark to-day, “but I will show that the polson was placed in the well not to poison any one, but to bring about my arrest, conviction and % detention in prison for a matter of twenty years, which would amount to Ute." Detective Hodges, who arrested Prof. Clark at the instigation of Barrows and this sister, Mrs. 8S. A. Terry, who lives with him, said to-day that he had been unable to find where Prof. Clark had secured the two pounds of sugar of lead which had been placed in the well. He said that he had been over Prof. Clark's route for several days and not only found that the prisoner was telling the exact truth concerning every place where he said he had been, + but he had also failed to find anything connecting him with the poison, Quarrel Over Money. ., Prof. Clark's Incarceration was the result of statements made by Mrs. ‘Terry and her brother to the effect that ,they had long been bitter enemies of Prof. Clark, When Prof. Clark's mother died several years ago she left $4,000 to his two children and left it In the care of Mrs. Terry. It was over this money that the two familtes quarrelled. Prof. Clark says that Mrs. Terry an- nounced that she intended to hold the money ten years longer, although the children are now of age. The arrest of Clerk has also brought to light a j quarrel he has had with his brother, Who Ilves In a large house at Assonet, and whose story was the cause for the arrest of the professor, When their mother died she left the Assonet home to'the two sons, but Prof. Philip Clark says he has never been able to secure A settlement and that his brother occu- ples the property exclusively. ‘Sure He Put Polson There, i \ { ~ Both Mrs. Terry and her brother say they are sure that Prof. Clark put the polson in the well. They give no reason for this, except that when he was last there to get money for his sick daugh- ter he threatened them with legal pro- ceedings because Mrs, Terry refused to Day the doctor's bills out of the girl's money. The county officials intimate that thelr Gase against Clark is weakening, and they say that developments mny bring about the arrest of other persons, but that they will not be arrested for’ put- ting the pelson in the well with the in- fention of polsoning any one. AT PRAYER IN SYNAGOGUE, Samuel Fleischenberg Passed Away Peacefully While Cele- brating Yom Kippur. While uttering his prayers in cele- bration of the feast of Yom Kippur Samuel Fleischenberg, comfortably fixed fn Ife but devout in his bellet of a future, died. To-day all of his acquaintances are hoping they themselves may find such a happy and peaceful death. They say it was his reward for having lived a good life, for having been the friend of the poor and oppressed and for hav- "ing reared a goodly family. Fleischenberg, who llved with his son over the latter's hat store, at No. 202 | Delancey street, went to the Grodiger © @ynagogue, in Pitt street, with his fam- { fly for the regular evening prayers. He went through the services with the others of the orthodox Jews, rising and kneeling, until, they all knelt for the final prayer, ,When that prayer was ‘finished Fleischenberg had a prayer of his own to say, and while muttering this in haj-loud tones he remained kneeling. In respeft to him the other members of his fgmily remained knecling with him, Hj head sank into his hands on the rail'in front of him and his voice became softer and lower and the words were aninteliigible.

The mourners were soon transformed into merrymakers when the ‘corpse’ they had come to receive stepped off the train. When George Allen left West Unity it was to seek health, as his family belleved he must soon fall a vietim to tuberculosis, He went West, and during his absence wrote from time to time to his friends, saying that he was tnaking a fortune, but that his health was only indifferently good. A month ago a letter was written from Chicago by his brother, saying that George was confined to bed In one of the hospitals there, and that his con- dition was not promising. On Monday a telegram was recelved by Allen's family from the superin- tendent of the hospital, announcing the death of George Allen, His brother immediately made arrangements to take the first train for Chicago to superin- tend the transportation of hie brother's remains to his old home, as George had expressed a desire to be buried at West Unity, Before leaving for Chicago the brother made all arrangements for the funeral, and absent relatives were notified as to the date of interment. When the brother reached Chicago he went at once to the hospital and was taken immediately to the room where the corpse lay. As soon as the face was unoove: . Allen exclaimed: “why, is not my brother; you have made a serious mistake, I never saw that man before." ‘The records were thek inspected, and it was found that two men of the same name had been patients at the hosptal.
