GEORGE CLAIMED TO BE A PRIEST. Was Collecting Funds Ostensibly for Church Purposes from Priests of the Diocese nnd Using Bishop Ho ban's Nnmo Without Authority. Arrested in Carbondale by Chief McAndrews and Brought to This City, Where Ho Refunded tho Money nnd Was Allowed to Go. A Syrian, lepresentlng himself to he a Catholic pi lest, was arrested yester day afternoon In Carbondale by Chief of Police McAndrews, of Carbondale, In the latter city, on a chaige of col lecting money under false pretenses. The man came to Bishop Hobnn on Tuesday and i ('presented himself as a pilest. He said his mission In this country wtis the collection of funds for nn oi plums' home nnd church In Mosul, Syria. The bishop bnd read In a Phila delphia paper that a Syrian had been collecting money In thnt city for the same purpose, but had been found to be a swindler. The bishop accordingly forbade him to collect nny money. It was learned yesterday, however, that he had been visiting the various priests in this city and collecting. It was also learned that he was using a book with the name of Bishop Hoban in It and crediting the latter with hav ing contributed $10, which, of course, the, bishop had not done. Word was sent to the police to ar rest the man, rmd as many of the pilests In the diocese as could be reached were vv iirned. He was arrested In Carbon dale Just after speaking to Father Nealon, of that city, and was In ought to tho episcopal residence In this city by Chief McAndrews. He admitted his guilt there and turned over the book and what money he had collected, which amounted to $10. Ho gave the name of Idwar George and pleaded poverty ns an excuse. He said that he had been In the country but two weeks, but the good English he spoke did not bear him out In this statement. Upon leaving ha promised to leave the cltv at once nnd It was decided not to prosecute him. AN INJUSTICE TO ROSS. He Did Not Assault His Wife as Was Stated. In The Tribune of yesterday was an Item referring to j.n assault committed by Herman Ross, of Schultzvtlle, upon his wife. The weapon ho wns said to have used was a knife. It seems there was no truth In the statement. Mr. Ross and his w ife have had no differences and he in no way misused her. They aie both highly re spected Kfeldents of Schultzville. COUNTERFEITING CASE. Tho Fate of Ingham and Newitt in Hands of the Jury. Philadelphia, Oct. 18 United States District Attorney Beck today made the closing arguments in the govern ment's case against Bllery P. Engham and Harvey K. Newitt, tho lawyers charged with conspiracy and btibery In connection wUh the Lancaster rev enue stamp counterfeiting plot. At the begginlng of his address Mr. Beck took occasion to criticise Mr. Shields, counsel for defense, for the lattei's reflections and Insinuations ngalnst him (Beck) during his aigument yes terday. Mr. Beck asserted that Mr. Shields had attempted to play upon the pre judices of certain membeis of the jury by claiming that Newitt was a total abstainer. Their- could not, Mr. Shields said, he any truth In Secret Service Operative McManus' statement that he and Newitt had gone to the Union League on election day and pro cured a drink Mr. Beck said it was not a question of Mr. Newltt's tem perance. William L. Kendlg, one of tho counterfeiters, had testified that Ingham said to him that after Mc Manus had drunk a bottle of wine he would be easy of approach. McManus.' testimony, he said, was corroborative of this statement and helped to prove the conspiracy. Tho district attorney denounced Mr. Shields' attack upon the secret ser vice operatives. "Those men," he said, "can cany to their graves the con sciousness of having done their duty honorably nnd nf having broken up the greatest countei felting conspiracy this country has known." Refeirlng to Mr. Shields' statement yesteiday that the detectives bad sent moie than one man to tho penitentiary and Devil's Island, Mr. Beck said that detectives had nothing to do with Drey fus' conviction. On the contrary, It was detectives who had aided In se eming his liberty. Judge McPhei. son's charge to the Jury showed no traces of partiality, the bur den of responsibility for the verdict being placed upon the twelve good men and true. One point on which he dwelt at length was tho credibility of the witnesses, more especially where the Women's $3.00 Shoes (Made for our trade.) The leathers, the styles, the fit, tho service all rank these as strietlv high-grade shoes, not a detail slighted. With no middle-men to pay, no extras to charge, we're able to fix the unmatchable piice S3. Any good shape that your taste may prefer or your feet require, (your size in stock.) fi 'Mf SPENCER 410 SPRUCE STREET. evidence of tho secret servlco opera tives was concerned. He said detectives were an absolute necessity and to le Ject their testimony because tlielr pro fession required subterfuge, would be wholly unwarranted. The testimony of criminals Is nlso worthy of belief, he said, whore there Is sufficient conoboratlon. Of tho two stories presented, his honor said obviously but one could bo true and the Jury must decide by the corroboration which to 'believe. That money had been passed fiom Kendlg to Ingham and Newitt nnd from them to McMnnim wns conceded. Tho ques tion won ns to what uso this money was to he npplled, The case was given to the Jury a few minutes past 3 oclock. After wnltlng an hour for the verdict, Judge Mc pherson ndjourned court until 10 o'clock tomorrow morning. NATIONAL EXPORT EXPOSI TION, PHILADELPHIA.
