Mousley, the detective who was arrested with the ‘women, and, like them, charged with manufacturing evidence against Frank | J, Gould, were freed on bonds. Miss | Fleming’ says that Mrs, Teal, whose confidante she was, introduced her to the detective, and after outlining a| @cheme to testify that Mr, Gould had | been seen by Mabel MacCauslan, the young dressmaker who revealed the plang, told her that there would be a | Jot’ of money in it for both of them. | Mr. Hart would not say what further | details Miss Fleming went into in her | @tatement, but he says it is of the| bighest Importan 5; Mrs, Teal Near Collapse.

A few min-| utes later Frank Gould, who is reported to have been subpoenaed by the defense, g@rtived with Cornelius J. Sullivan, his aadtorney, and took a seat in the rear of ithe court-room. Before the proceedings began he sat, with a broad-brimmed fat tilted well forward over his eyes, epparently in the hove of escaping Feeognition. Mrg. Teal's counsel, Edward Carpel, addressed the Court with a request that larger and more comfortable quarters be sought for the hearing, so that the danger of collapse to his client would be lessened. When Mr. Carpel had finished his re- quest Mr. Hart said: “Your Honor, the confession made to me to-day by Mrs, Julla Fleming and the affidavit of Blanche Hale, cor- oborating that of Miss MacCausian, 1 feel that I have enough evidence to hold the prisoners, and I will not present these other matters until the trial Miss Fleming knows, according to the prorecuting officials, all ti.e deta ls of thie alleged pin *0 produce testimony tn- volving Frank Gould in a compromis- ing situation with an actress, and the prosecution, it is known, has relied on ipucing her to become its most valu- able witness. = She has said that she was deeply hurt 1 at the manner {in which her have allowed her to remain while they have been at lide @ few hours after thelr arre: Refused to Tell Lie Teal said 1 would do as I was i , and then I rep!
