TESTIMONY IS COXI'LICTINO
Conflicting testimon was H'en h Mis
Friedman and lilllnion. The former o.

the clerk, sljrnlns Friedman's name to
the Bonier bail bond and also to another

to fool the court. Mrs Friedman said:
"It was made up that Uuhn-r was In

postponed, and Gross and another man
made up a letter. It was broucht to us
by Gross and Max Aron. the l.injer who
first represented us I'tider 'Iross in

"William Frommei. in Seff York, and he
ent it back to me."
The principal pait of Gtllman's t.stl
mony was his attempt to show that Glll
man was a martvr. Ho said he had been
blamed and criticised for things he Is
not responsible for. At the close of the
hearing Assistant District Attorney Uart
lett declared he had been instructed by
district Attorney Hotnn to pro'ie the ease
to the bottom, and he expected to rank"

GILX.MAX CONTRADICT? GROSS
Glllman was on the witness stind

purpose of contradicting some of the testi

CHARGE OF TURCOS
AT CHARLEROI LIKE
"HELL LET LOOSE"
Germans Fall Like "Suffo

Terrible Onslaught 0f
Africa's Dark Warriors.
PARIS, Sept n
The teckless bravery of tho Turcos,
the black troops that France has callti
to the front from Africa, Is tho them
of many n thrilling tale.
An officer of Zouaves, who took part In
the magnificent chnrgo of the dusky Af.
rlcnn warriors at Charlerol nnd wai
badly wounded, thus tefers to the fight
"You could tint If you tried exaggerate
the amazing bravery our fellows showed
right tip to tho Jaws of death. We htl

walls of Charlerol. There were ICO.tw
of the enemy massed against our po.

splendid lads never flinched, although
thc.v had not a chance for a meal. Some
times tho advantage, was with lis, some
times wo had to givo way. Tho mors
our attlllcry mowed down tho mora the
enemy seemed to spring up, They
swat-med In nil directions, nnd that I

than ours.
"Suddenly our colonel cried, 'dive th

tore along tho enemy's batteries for

the charge continued the boys chantod the
'Mniselllalse,' but one comrade could
hardly hear the other. On they dashed
however, till they were within perhapi
fifteen Yards, when the batteries In the
wood ceased firing, or they would have
mowed down their own guards.
"Then the bloodiest of all bayonet
melees began. While one man was trans.
Ilxlnij a huge Prussian and could not for
the moment release his bayonet ho would
out with his pistol and shoot another,
while u comrade by his side would be be
laboring his foe with the butt end of his
rifle. So mad was the combat that mnay
of our men got hold of tho noses of the
Germans with their teeth. Giants though
these picked guards of William are, they
are as little children before these terrific
Turcos, They fell like suffocated vvnsps;
blood splashed everywhere. I think I
