Taking It for granted that President Judge Kunkel, at the conference of the lawyers on both aides after the grand jury lias disposed of the cases, will announce that the cases will be brought to trial at a special term of court in December, James Scarlet and ills associates are got ting ready fov the trials at that time. All of the witnesses who will be subpoenaed to appear before grand jury will be here Saturday to attend a conference of the state's attorneys. The first case will be sent to the grand jury at I o'clock on Monday morning next, and by Tuesday night Attorney General Todd believes true bill will have* been found in the thirty-two cases. Much of the evidence will be docu- , rnentary and if necessary, will be ex- j plained by the experts of the invest!- ' Ration commission. These experts include representatives of the Audit Company of New York, who turned up the fraud in the "trimming" contracts and the men who weighed, measured and tested the "fake" chandeliers. the steel tiling cases and the alleged mahogany furniture. Attorney General Tood and his associates are getting the testimony in such shape that it may not be necessary to call these experts before the grand jury.

No one knew where he was except his relatives, and they would not talk. I was to locate him and keep him under surveillance. At that time we thought Liggett Was in doubt about Kovovic and were sure if confronted by the right man he would immediately recognize him. We thought Stone was some place in New York Suite at the time. Mr. Burke's plan was to have me discover his exact whereabouts arrest him for «tahe crime he had committed in West Virginia and extradite him just at the time the Ferguson I murder case was being tried and at the critical moment have the officer who had him in charge on his way to Wheeling stop off with him at Washington and walk into the courtroom, where Liggett was bound to identify him In the presence of the Judge and jury. The effect of this yoti { could easily see. If he identified him there as he did at Columbus, Kovovic wouM certainly have gone free, and unless Stone could have proven an alibi, with Liggett swearing he was the man he saw leaving the scene of the crime, he would certainly have been convicted of the Ferguson murder, plan fell through, however, because, notwithstanding all my efforts at the time 1 could not locate Stone and when Stone says he was at Ben wood "Stone was wanted another "As soon as I learned of the charge which his.mother-in-law mad.' against Stone I went to work on the case and soon afterwards laid all the facts before Congressman Burke, who, with Judge Hall, was conducting the defense. Mr. Burke was so impressed with the matter that he not only encouraged me in my* efforts to capture Htonel but advised me of a most ingenious way to get him intj Washington County and bring about a dramatic scene that was bound to acquit Kovovic and convict Stone if my theory was correct, and if I had been able to carry out Mr. Burke's plan at the time I am sure Kovovic would have been acquitted.

S. ilitz, Df Wheeling, developed four years ago. Mr. Ritz made a statement last night which is fully corroborated by Mr. Burke. It shows that an effort to locate Stone had been made In 11)03 and that plans were made to charge him with the murder.
