"Wheeler is still after that statement. He meets Wicks on the street and is very glad to see him. 'Won't you go over to Canada with me and go said he.

'I will buy his statement and then let him run was in the mind of Wheeler; a statement on one hand and money on the other. One-half of the bag that Mary A. Wheeler holds to-day would have been poured at Wicks's feet if he had made the statement that Wheeler wanted. Wheeler had rattled the jail oars, he had tried forcing his bondsmen off, he had tried to buy Wicks in Canada. To think of talking of blackmailing this spider, Wheeler.

"Well, he couldn't buy him nor drive him, so he tried to entrap him. He sawed a board out of the Arcade office and called his faithful stenographer. Miss Fleming, to sit in ambuscade, and he had Meitz-ler and the rest of them go over to play the spy aud tried to get some kind of a statement in that way. And he failed again. He had got to the end of his attempts on Wicks so he says to him: 'If you tell a story that sends me to Auburn I will shoot you and then shoot Wieks said: 'Then go and get your revolver, for if I go on the stand I shall tell the truth, conviction or no The district attorney declared that Wicks had not varied a hair in his testimony and that he was a changed man from what be was when he was doing Wheeler's bidding.

With regard to the charge that there was a conspiracy to ruin Wheeler, Mr. Forsyth said: "I hope that no such charge finds a resting place with you. My individuality is the subject of criticism, as is everybody elses, but don't believe this charge upon the malice of anybody, or the mouthings and the epithets of anyone, but upon evidence. I do not shrink from the contemptible charge. "One of the important things that comes before you for decision in this case is to say who really controlled those offices at No.

39 East Main street. Emma Ilolley is accused of perjury because her statements varied regarding w-hich of the conspirators employed her. Will you stigmatize her then as a perjurer in this disputed matter that is one of the points for you to decide?" Mr. Forsyth then stated that Mr. Raines misrepresented the evidence of Miss Holley and called da the jurors to read certain paces of the testimony in the Wieks trial and not to take his word for it.

Mr. Raines, he claimed, had deceived them, and the testimony referred to the SLortsviHe deal and not to the soap factory deal as had been intimated. The district attorney biylcd such conduct "contemptible." Mr. Raines, who had come into the court room some time before, arose and said: "It has taken considerable to raise me from my chair, but now I insist that the counsel read that evidence so that the jury can see for themselves." The court said: "The Canandaigua testimony does not go before the jury, and if you want the jury to know what it is you will have to read it." After a wordy controversy with Mr. Raines, the district attorney read the testimony, and claimed that it established his point.

Referring to the interruption, Mr. Forsyth said to the attorney for the defense: "I have a rod in pickle that I will warm your jacket with before I get through." Mr. Forsyth went on to give an account of the efforts of Miss Fleming to get Miss Holley to Conesms lake for the purpose of getting a statement from her for the benefit of Wheeler. "Wheeler lured her to the lake," said Mr. Forsyth.

"From the sweltering heat of French Coon's office sue was enticed to Conesus lake. I see Mary A. Wheeler standing before the door of the cottage; I see her sister. Martha Reynolds, standing on the veranda; just back of her is seen the smiling face of Edith L.

He Likened Wesley Wheeler to a Spider. MISS HOLLEY ALLURED How icks. Airs. Johnston and Others Wee Entangled Wheeler's Stratagems Against the Former All Failed. The court room was packed and all the fttaudiug room was occupied throughout the day at the 'Wheeler trial yesterday ou the occasion of the summing tip by District Attorney Forsyth.

Nearly the principal witnesses, except Wicks, and many people who- had been interested in the Wheeler deals were present. The district attorney entertained them well. lie made a powerful summing up of the ease with any number of spicy allusions, and frequently attacked the opposing counsel. Mr. Forsyth began at 9:30 o'clock in the morning and had not nearly completed when adjournment was taken at night, lie t-tarted in by calling attention to the fact Chat Mrs.

Wheeler had 100,000 now, although she was a poor domestic when she was married, and that Wheeler had apparently put all his property in other people's names, mainly his wife's. lie then went over the much-told stories of the Leopold street property deal and the soap factory transaction. He presented the features of these alleged swindles and Wheeler's part in them, very forcibly. lie also had a lot of fan at the expense of the Patent Silver Company, which he declared a fake from beginning to end. When he got to talking about the Prospect street house affair he called 31 rs.

Mary A. Wheeler, Sapphira, and Wesley Wheeler, Ananias, and went exhaustively into the details of the trades with Kitts. Court adjourned at 1 o'clock, to 2 P. M. Wiien court reconvened in the afternoon, Mr.

Forsyth again took up the charges of perjury made against the witnesses for the prosecution, and asserted that there had been no perjury. lie called attention to the fact that upon a flight variation in a stenographic character was hinged the charge of perjury. He then called attention to the conversation between Harris and Wheeler after the Canandaigua trial. Said the district attorney: "Wheeler met Harris in the presence of Reynolds and others, and said: 'You were eo honest down at Canandaigua that you swore to a Albert Harris jumped at his throat, and said: 'You say that again and I will smash you. When you stand up and tell a man that he is a perjurer, if he is one he will slink away.

Harris's anger was an evidence of his honesty. It was Wheeler that cringed and said: 'I was only Mr. Forsyth then said that while he did not purpose to defend all that Harris had done. Harris did not know but that Wheeler had a good title to the lots when the soap factory deal was put up. "He does not suffer by comparison," said Mr.

Forsyth, the man who swore that he was secretary of the Patent Silver Company, but couldn't tell when or where or how he was appointed and swore that tJLea, didn't know an thing about the business of The company." The district attorney went on to narrate Wicks's part in the transactions. He said: "Wicks was surrounded by a gang of men that would swear a man's life awav if they thought that the situation demanded it. He was convicted. Peckens was sentenced. Wheeler went to Ohio early in January, having learned from my brother that there was a movement on foot to indict him.

Wieks had an appeal in the appellate division and Johnston was indicted. "Fhiietus Chamberlain had tried the case at Canandaigua. He knew the ins and outs of Wheeler in this den of t'iiev-s, as no other man did, and when he eat down with Wicks and talked with him in that ofliee, you may conclude that questions in regard to the myriads of the hounds and perjurers that surround Wheeler were talked over. He Paid to Albert P. Wicks, 'If there was tome way of assuring you that these men That are his victims ia his hand, that may be moulded against you, could be made To teil the truth, then that truth will show wiire and who is responsible, aud then, stand up, Albert P.

Wicks, and tell the truth, though the heavens fall. "The opportunity presented itself. On a Sar.bath day, Charles O. Peckens and Wesley Wheeler came. Wiekes arrived ia time to set- the hand of Charles O.

Peckens upon the throat, of Wesley Wheeler, and the words were: 'Don't you tell me that I had anything to do with the Kitts transaction, or I will strangle After a long dieisiou of Wicks's part in the case, the district attorney turned his attention to the frantic effort That he claimed made to get back the Patent Silver stock that was traded to Lucas. He referred to Wheeler's mirssfep which caused the anxiety and related the ory of l.iicus, the elder, coming to Rochester t. see about it and how dressed up Mr. liaimiiiB wish a high bat to make him look like a hank president and sent Lucas off to niet him. Lucas inquired about the validity of a check ou the Putuit Silver Company and the lank president informed him that the check of the Patent Silver Company was goixi for Mr.

Forsyth said that Wheeler became alarmed as lie feared the indictments aud tin-ii he tried hard to get the stock of l.uet'8 back so as to close The hitter's mouth. "Wheeler wrote letters." said he, he promised to do many things. Ho Wi. ks: "I'll discharge the mortgage of on rh Cauadice farm, and will give throe hovSes and lots. Wieks went and did the business for Wheeler without a suggestion of malice.

Hardly was he-ink dry in these transactions when Hol-maa was sent up to get Wicks; Wheeler had surrendered him upon his bond. Wicks Kwt Jiniiw T. Miller, the brother-in-law, in aeeSrs ogive, -and Wheeler was m'nr by JJy to be- brought ia and have his say, Levler called ia and said: "Yes, 1 have delivered you up on your bond, but if you make a statement exonerating ui i that your bond is made good -dr. Forsyth described Wicks's refusal aid then related Wicks's successful to get two other bondsmen, tints foli-Wheeler again. These men were f''erl -lH'as and another C-anadiee pead, Kirdi-eye Birch.

Then came the Jo letters dictated by Wheeler, written -'5- -uss Fleming, one signed "A Friend" j-'l the other unsigned. In these letters, eiev.ously published ia these column, Hurt-Ier endeavored to get Birch and i-ueas to surrender Wicks. "0, spider; hypocrite!" exclaimed Mr. or.yti, "who would dare to write such a jjj" as t-kat wJu a Wicks was seeking his Titr' Jt every word you have vTlf measures you ss no other Jfcruatiek could measure you. But Wicks Eight Received Homeopathic Hospital Diplomas.

SOME WORDS OF ADVICE Address by Rev. Dr. Converse-Presentation of Class by Dr. Sumner Presentation or Diplomas by Mrs. W.

A. Montgomery. The graduation exercises of the Homeopathic Hospital Training School for Nurses, heid at Y. M. C.

A. Music hall last night, were well attended by the friends of the hospital, and of the eight young women who were graduated as nurses. The programme as arranged was entertaining, although brief and simple in character. The members of the class were attired in nurse's garb, aud each carried a large bouquet of red carnations tied with long bows of red ribbon. The stage was simply but beautifully decorated with led tulips aud palms.

The exercises were opened with a prayer by Rev. Murray Bartlett, rector of St. Paul's Episcopal Church, followed by niusie by the Amphion Male Quartette, consisting of II. W. Bacon, W.

W. Spragge, W. C. Engel and J. J.

Engel. The address to the class was delivered by Rev. R. R. Converse, D.

rector of St. Luke's Episcopal Church, whose words of advice to the young ladies were listened to with deep interest. Dr. Converse congratulated the members of the class upon their success in attaining such knowledge as would entitle them to the diploma of the Homeopathic Hospital Training School, and sought to impress them with the thought that the hospital management and society as a whole expected much of them. He charged them very emphatically to be noble women first, and to be skillful nurses second.

"I do not invite you to slight your vocation, however," said he, "or ask that you shall cease in the persistent industry or devotion you must adapt to your duty, but I do wish to emphasize that professionalism must never be allowed to swamp or submerge your personality. In other words, you must never let your womanhood be lost sight of in the activities of your profession: that you mutt not do as daughters of God, as human beings. This is a universal truth; a great law that applies to all professions. Be true-minded, true-hearted women, and let professionalism be to you simply as your chosen vesture, your honorable raiment." Dr. Converse laid much stress upon the necessity for a strength and clearness of mind, and a cheerfulness and serenity of spirit, in the life of a nurse, and said that the profession ranked high because of the intelligence that had been put into it.

It would rise or fall, said he, in the public estimation in proportion to the degree of intelligence with which its duties were performed. The time might come when celerity and strength of mind and clearness of eye would be the means of saving a life. This strength of mind was obtainable only by a careful and intelligent mental exercise. Regarding the importance of a cheerfulness of spirit. Dr.

Converse declared that he did not mean an overflow of exuberance springing from the animal spirit, but the elasticity of the sould which has its roots deep down in the heart. He cautioned against an overestimation of self, and stated that by that he did not wish to be understood as a mean self-estimate; as God had meant that every one should have a proper self-reliance. "Train your imagination in the task of finding the great in the little." said he. "Carry into your work aud life a great spirit; a great motive. It carries with it an inspiration, cheer and hopefulness.

May abundant success crown you in your noble calling, but remember that he gates of failure readily open for you to step inside, while the gates of real success must be stormed; must be won." After a second song by the quartette, the presentation of the class was made with brief remarks by Dr. C. R. Sumner, of the medical and surgical staff, and the presentation of diplomas was made by Mrs. W.

A. Montgomery of the training school board. Mrs. Montgomery complimented the young women upon their success in the training school, and the diplomas were handed to the following graduates: Miss Flora Bernuno, Miss Etta Grace Nichols, Miss Emma Jean Root, Miss Anna Louise Warwood, Miss Jennie Bennett Parkhurst, Miss Alice Lockwood Johnson, Miss Anna May Tripp, Miss Mary Ltieinda Hare. Following the exercises the members of the class and a number of invited friends departed for the hospital, where refreshments were served, and the remainder of the evening was passed in dancing.

THE USES OF UGLINESS. Aa Interesting Lecture Givjn at Laks Avenue Baptist Church. Last evening was given the fourth entertainment in the course of the Lake Avenue Baptist Church, which took the form of a lecture entitled "The Uses of Ugliness." given by Jahu DeWitt Miller. The large auditorium of the church was crowded, and the speaker kept the audience in a continual roar of laughter. The subjects of the lecture furnished scope for a humorous talk, and this was what was given by Mr.

Miiler. Mr. Miller said it was the custom for a speaker to talk low at first, gradually talk louder, strike fire and then gracefully retire. At the present time everything appears to be somewhat English, and the foreign noblemen are coming to this country regularly, seldom retiring alone, and the speaker said be thought there were enough women iu this country to furnish all the British parliament with wives and still have enough left for the American men. He n'so spoke of the Chinamen, and described their habits, and belief.

Altogether the lecture was a melange of bright thoughts, witty sayings aud amusing stories, and greatly, pleased the audience. Lest a Large Sum of Money. Mrs. Anna Donsbach, who lives over No. 58 South St.

Paul street, failed at the police station at 9 o'clock last evening and informed Night Captain Baird that she lost her pocketlook ou a South and Luke avenue car some time between 2 and 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon. The purse, she said, contained and will be a severe lot to her if she does not succeed in recovering it. Quirnby is Wanted in Syracuse. Almore W. Quirnby, the formerly well-known traveling salesman, who was arrested ou street last Friday by Detective SvvanTon on the charge of vagrancy, and who was discharged in poliee court ou the Monday morning following.

upon the promise of frieuds to take care Joseph Forquell and Albert Darling Were Not Prosecuted. Joseph Forquell and Albert Darling were arraigned in police court at 5:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon, on the charge of burglary in breaking into and stealing chickens from the barn of Dominiek Forquell, an elder brother of one of the prisoners, who lives at No. 12 Davis street, on Saturday morning last. On that morning Otheer Greve saw the young men acting suspiciously in the neighborhood of North street and he followed them. Noticing that they were pursued tbe young men took to their heels, dropping a bag which they carried, in their haste.

Upon opening the bag the officer found that it contained several chickens, and he eccordingly communicated with his superior, Lieutenant Sherman. The officer had a good description of the young men and after they went off duty the officer accompanied the lieutenant on an investigation. They succeeded ia locating the two young men, both of whom live on Philander street, in a saloon on Hartford street, late in the afternoon. When they were arraigned yesterday afternoon, the attorney retained by the Forquell boy's mother made an earnest plea in their behalf. lie said that the boys were undoubtedly under the influence of liquor at the time of the alleged theft, and furthermore, the complainant had no desire to prosecute them.

He hoped that the police would be merciful to the boys, who had expressed a desire to make all the reparation in their power. The attorney argued that the Forquell boy, in taking the chickens, was not aware that he was doing anything wrong, thinking that he had a perfect right to take them. Lieutenant Sherman said that he had no especial interest iu prosecuting the boys, but so far as their being intoxicated was concerned when the act was committed, the assertion was absurd. Judge Ernst delivered a five-minute lecture to the boys, urging them to mend their ways, to leave strong drink alone, and to shun evil companions, concluding his remarks with the word "go." It developed that the Forquell boy, who is 20 years of age. is married and has one child.

His wife, a black-eyed young woman apparently not more than 17 years of age, was in the court room, as was the young man's mother, who seemed to be much affected by what was occurring. THOMAS IS IN A FIX. Very Strong Evidsnc9 Was Presented Against Him in PoFce Court. Edward Thomas was arraigned in police court yesterday afternoon on the charge of burglary in entering the tool house of Michael C. Mahaney, in the rear of No.

102 Jones street, on January 5th last, and stealing therefrom tools of the value of $20. Hk examination occupied nearly three hours, and when the people rested, Judge Ernst expressed the opinion that the evidence was sufficient to convict. Thomas was defended by George Trues-dale, while Detective Edward O'Brien conducted the prosecution in a capable manner. Mahanpy said the tool house had been entered by force, during his absence from the city. James Lake, a second-hand dealer, at No.

429 North street, said that be had bought the toohs from Thomas for During the examination Mrs. Thomas sat beside her husband and coached him as to what he should ay, and she was reprimanded by the court. Thomas took the stand and denied stealing the tools. Attorney Truesdale admitted that the evidence against the man was strong, but he thought there was a question of mistaken indentity. Thomas alleged that his brother Joseph might have stolen the took.

Detective O'Brien then placed Joseph on the stand. He said that Edward had placed newspapers over the windows so that, the detectives could not see who was in tbe house. He had also stayed in bed in order to avoid arrest. The brothers eyed each other threateningly and Mrs. Thomas at one time broke out and called the witness a liar iu as many words.

The witness said that his brother had told him that he had better teil the officers that he stole the tools, as he was a singie man, while his brother was married. Attorney Truesdale annoyed the witness by his questions and the latter finally blurted out, in answer to a question, that he was not going to swear to a lie. From time to time Mr. and Mrs. Thomas and their attorney held consultations and finally Judge Ernst remarked: "The day is almost done." Later, when the defense stated that it would like to swear an absent witness, the judge told all parties to be on hand at o'clock this morning, so as to get an early start.

Thomas was once convicted and served a term in the penitentiary for robbing a man in Frankfort alley. It said that he is a cheap crook. Appeal Filed in Maley Cass. A notice of appeal was filed yesterday by Attorney Salisbury in the case of Jo-umh convicted of manslaughter in the second degree and sentenced to Auburn prison for complicity in the death of John Monroe last fall. The certificate of reasonable doubt obtained from Justice Titus, of Buffalo, was also filed with the notice of appeal.

Waats a Writ cf Mandamus. In special term a motion was made before Justice Davy, asking for a writ of mandamus compelling the town board of the town of Brighton to audit in full the claim of Edwin C. Remington against it. Mr. Remington was the highway commissioner and seut in a bill for $278.

aud the board cut this down -4. Decision in the matter was reserved by Justice Davy. Extension of Time Granted. An extension of the time iu which to prepare and serve the exceptions in the "Kid Hail case was yesterday granted to Attorney George M. Williams by Judge Sutherland.

The extension granted is thirty days from date, but the case is a long aud complicated one and more time yet may be needed. A Full Hedged Trust Company.

TILLIE BURKE'S STORY. She Says That Roy Lubdell Has Possession of Her Watch. A petite brunette, giving her name as Tillie Burke, and her age as 19 years, together with a girl companion, oceupiod chairs in the juvenile police court room for about three hours yesterday afternoon, waiting for an audience with Police Stenographer Merrick, who was occupied in taking testimony in a police court case. After court had adjourned the girl was induced to make her wishes known, and humming to herself, "give me back my watch," she put on her prettiest air, and tapping her foot petulantly on the carpeted floor gave the desired information. She said that one night last week the attended a dance given iu one of Boehester 3, halls.

During the evening she was introduced to a young man named Boy Lubdell. While they were exchanging compliments after this formality had been gone through with, she pulled out her watch to note the ilight of time. The girl alleges that as she was about to return the watch to its proper place, young Lubdell, who is about 20 years of age, took the ornament from her and placed it in his pocket. She paid no attention to the act, as she regarded it in the light of a joke, but. when she found that the young man had left the hall without having taken the pains to return the watch, she began to make inquiries.

She waited several days in fond expectancy that Lubdell would return the watch, with a nice little perfumed note of apology and a bouquet of roses accompanying the same. But her dreams retained their hazy substance, and she finally made up her mind to call on Chief of Detectives Ilayden, who, she was informed, was a wonder in the way of finding things for other people. She visited the chief and he referred her to the kindly graces of Mr. Merrick. As there was no seeming intention on the part of Lubdell to steal the watch, he advised her to seek some other means by which to recover possession of the timepiece, which has silver cases, with gold mountings.

is valued at $20, and was bought out of tbe girl's small earning as a domestic. "I don't want him arrested," said she, "but I do want my watch." Mr. Merrick gave her bis most gracious smile, and directed her to send some male friend to the young awn and see if he would not give the watch up. She thought the matter over, and then said that she "guessed that his was the better plan." "The trouble is," sue continued, 'T may not be able to rind a young man." Christ Church Bible Class.

SCOTT SENTENCED. Th Ycusg Slan Who Stole Cigars Go: Ten Days in the M. C. P. Warren J.

Scott, the young man arrested for stealing cigars from Faucher's Mighty Dollar cigar store at the Four Corners, received a lesson in police court yesterday morning, which may be the means of bringing him to a higher conception of the things of life. For a long time John Greve, the manager of the cigar store, had missed cigars and packages of chewing tobacco and cigarettes from the top of the show case, where they were placed for the accommodation of customers. ireve finally came to the conclusion that the articles were stoltn at a certain time in the evening, between 7 and a o'clock, and Tuesday evening lie resolved to set a watch on the show case. He took a friend into his -confidence and they saw Scott enter the store. The young man, who has the reputation of being a worthless, good-for-nothing fellow, was seen to abstract a package of cigaroots valued at ten cents from the counter.

He left tbe store and went up East Main street, Greve and his friend following him. At the corner of St. Paul street, Greve called an officer and the young man was arrested. When arrested he threw the cigaroots away. Scott lives with his mother aud brothers and sifters at To.

81 Spencer street, and the family feel the disgrace keenly- On January 4th last Scott was arraigned in police court on the charge of stealing a pair of gloves from a Lake avenue store, but the matter had been willed out of court and he was discharged. The package stolen by Scott from the cigar store contained ten cheroots and Judge Ernst sentenced him to serve a clay in the penitentiary for each cigaroot he had taken. Scott denied the stealing, and said that he bought them on credit. The court pertinently asked him why he had thrown them away. The young mnn was at one time a barber and also has worked at the painter's trade.
