OF
PROMINENT FIGURES IN GOULD CONSPIRACY CASE.
FOR FALSEHOOD
ALTERATION SA
District Attorney Claims to
Have More Evidence
Against Mrs. Teal.
SCHOOL
MANY GIRLS TO TESTIFY
Two Members of "Mimic World"
Chorus Among Those Said to
Have Been Approached in
Gould Conspiracy Case.
NEW YORK, July 30. SpeciaJ.) Allcs
Flemlnu, encouraged by the advice of
Richard MeCabe, her fiance, and emblt
tfred by the treatment she has received
ince her confinement In the Tomb on
the charge of being a party to the plot to
furnish false testimony to aid Mrs. Helen
Kelly Gould In obtaining a divorce from
her husband, Frank Jay Oould, has given
to Assistant District Attorney Hart the
names of two other women, said to be
members of the chorus in "The Mimic
"World," now at the Casino, who are al
leged to have been approached by Mrs.
Ben Teal and offered financial Induce
ments to give false testimony concerning
slicked relations between Mr. Oould and
' Bessie De Voe. the actress, as would
entitle Mrs. Gould to obtain a divorce.
The preliminary hearing of Mrs. Teal
and her alleged fellow conspirators was
concluded last Tuesday night. At that
time Magistrate Corrigan announced that
he would render his decision Friday, in
timating that he would hold the defen
dants for trial.
It is said the two chorus girls refused
to go Into the scheme and gave as a
reason their fondness for Bessie De Voe.
The Information is piling up In the
District Attorney s office, it Is said, which
establishes that Mrs. Teal was the head
Instructress in the school for the manu
facture of false testimony. Mabel Mac
Causlan's story of how she was induced
to sign a false statement by Mrs. Teal
has not been contradicted In any way
except by the denial of Mrs. Teal, and It
is contended by Mr. Hart that the strong
est possible corroboration of the testi
mony of MJss MacCauslan lies in the fact
that the Incriminating statement made by
licr, "with original notes fcmltted to have
been written by Henry 8. Mouseley. a
private detective, and dictated by Mrs..
Teal, were found In Mouseley's pocket
when he was arrested.
Blanche Hale's statement, wrung from
her by Mr. Hart, Is In direct corrobora
tion of the charge that Mrs. Teal tried to
Induce this young woman, a hairdresser
of the Hotel Lincoln, to give false testi
mony for money, and corroborates Miss
MacCauslan's testimony as to the nature
of the attack to be made upon Mr.
Gould's conduct to aid Mrs. Gould In her
suit for divorce.
Subpenas have been issued for the two
chorus girls, whose names are withheld
in the District Attorney's office for Judi
cial reasons.
It Is said in the District Attorney's of
fice that the number of persons ap
proached by Mrs. Teal, as alleged, with
the proposition to testify against Mr.
Gould will make It difficult for her .to sus
tain the defense as outlined by Lawyer
Blumenthal, that Mrs. Teal was Induced
to go Into this scheme through the de
signs of Miss MacCauslan. the 18-year-old
girl, to make herself famous as a wit
ness In an Important divorce suit and lay
the foundation for a successful career
upon the stage.
BUDD CALLED BY DEATH
Ex-Governor of California Passes
Away After lxing Illness.
8TOCKTON, Cal., July SO. James H.
Budd, former Governor of California and
long prominent In pontics, died at his
residence In this city early this morning
after an Illness of a fortnight, of uraemia,
due to Bright's disease. He was 68 years
of age.
The deceased had been a sufferer from
rheumatism and kidney troubles for
years, and although he visited European
health rescrts, was able to obtain little
, more than temporary relief. He was at
the point of death several times, but ral
lied with wonderful vitality. About 10
o'clock last night he lapsed Into uncon
sciousness and the physicians saw that
the end was only a matter of hours at
best. Death came early this morning
while surrounded by his family. His aged
mother and his devoted wife were in con
stant attendance during his last hours.
The decessed was born In Janesvllle,
TVii.. May 18, 1851, and came to California
In his boyhood. He graduated from the
University of California, where he was a
member of the Zeta Fsl Vpsllon frater
nity in 1S&1. He was admitted to the bar
and settled In Stockton for the practice
of his profession. Elected to Congress,
: he served from 18S3 to 1SS5, but declined
the renomlnation. He was Democratic
' Governor of California from 1S94 to 1898.
He held minor political positions such as
library trustee and police and fire com-
.mlssioner In Stockton's earlier history and
before his election as Governor was
Colonel of the National Guard of Call-
. fornla.
The funeral will take place Sunday
morning. Rev. R. F. Sink, of the Con
gregational church will officiate. The
body will be placed In the iecelvina
vault at Rural cemetery. The deceased
did not belong to any fraternal orders
other than a college Greek society.

TURKS IN TURMOIL
Dissatisfaction Among Liber
als at Sultan's Delay.
WANT NEW MINISTRY
Situation Is Badly Muddled and De
velopments Cannot Be Foreseen.
Master Hand Is Directing
Semi-Revolutionary Move.
CONSTANTINOPLE. July 30. Al
though ' the demonstrations In the
streets of Constantinople over the
granting of a constitution have prac
tically ceased, there are signs of much
dissatisfaction among the liberal ele
ment at the delay In the reconstruc
tion of the Ministry. Scenes of the
wildest description continue in the
cafes, where officers and civilians em
brace each other and express their
delight at the ending of the tyrannical
regime.
The situation still lacks clearness.
and It is Impossible at present to fore
cast the next development with any
degree of certainty. The Toung Turks
are masters of Constantinople, and the
European provinces, and except in the
f
t h t
directing hand of the movement is still
invisible and unknown.
A noteworthy incident in the popular
manifestations at last Sunday, which
at the time escaped notice. Is the fact
that the military college was surrounded
by troops In order to prevent the stu
dents from leaving that Institution. The
people manifested their resentment at
this precaution, whereupon the troops
were withdrawn and the students moved
about freely.
The only Incident of today has been
a noisy demonstration of artiHery offi
cers and soldiers at the Porte, where
the men gathered apparently clamoring
for promotion. As a matter of fact, the
object of this demonstration was hostil
ity toward Zekkl Pasha, grand master
of the artillery, whose withdrawal was
requested. Zekkl Pasha was hooted while
going to the Porte.
Two hundred army officers have ar
rived at Adrlanople from Salonika to
replace the doubtful officers of the sec
ond army corps.
Seliiu Pasha's Cowardice.
It has become known that Sellm Mel
hamed Pasha, minister of mines and
forests, was assisted in getting out of
the country by "the good offices of the
Italian embassy, and this fact has pro
duced a bad Impression among the lib
eral Turks. The escape of Sellm Pasha
is regarded as an act of cowardice, in
that he abandoned his sovereign at a
critical juncture, a course which, it Is
held, testified to his guilty conscience.
Italians explain that the embassy was
not aware that Sellm Pasha meditated
flight. He requested the use of the
embassy launch, to embark his son
Nihad. who was coming to Rome to
take the post of first secretary In the
Ottoman embassy, and made use of the
boat to get away.
They say further that had Sellm
Pasha applied for the protection of
the Italian flag on the ground that his
life was in danger, he could not have
been refused. The whole Melhamed
family Is exceedingly unpopular, espe
cially Tenjib, who has not been seen
for several days. The constitutional
party is anxious to call them to ac
count for many alleged reprehensible
deeds In enriching themselves. Some
of the foreign Ambassadors are blamed
for the protection and friendship ex
tended to the Melhameds, without
which, it is argued, they never could
have attained the position and influ
ence they did. Two of Selim Pasha's
daughters married German officers,
while a third is the wife of an Italian
officer. .
No further, news has been received
of the fate of Habib Melhamed, who
while trying to escape from the coun
try was arrested by Toung Turkey of
ficers under Mustapha Pasha. Accord
ing to advices from Salonica, Isken
der Melhamed was condemned to death
by the Young Turk Committee, but this
sentence subsequently was suspended.
message received by the Turkish Consul
General was as follows:
Inform all fugitive Turkish citizens In New
York City and in all the United States. In
cluding political fugitives, without repard to
race or nationality, whether Greek. Armenian,
Turkish or Albanian, that after the prodmul
sation of a constitution for the Turkish Em
pire, his Majeety. the Sultan, upon request
of the government, has granted general am
nesty, and all political fugitives may go back
to Turkey . after having the necessary pass
ports verified at the office of the Turkish
Consul-General, 89 Pearl street. New York
City.
The reading of the announcement to a
number of his countrymen by the Consul
General was greeted with cheers. Mundjl
Bey said.
I regard, this as the most Important step
forward that has yet been taken, insofar as It
relates to Turkish citizens In the United
States. Thero are some 400.000 Turkish citi
zens in this country and more than 200,000
of these are political fugitives, men who have
often longed to return to their old homes, but
have feared to do so. These men may now
go back to their country without fear.
The amnesty appplles to political, not
criminal, refugees. I am sure that those
who have offended politically, and have
sought an asylum in this country, will now
return and help in the work of constructing
a united nation. Turkey will now be as free
as the United States. Bharlty, If 1 mistake
not. there will be a Turkish Ambassador
at Washington. Our aim will be to main
tain then closest relations wltli the United
States, as Indeed is natural, since the con
ditions of citizens of this country will be
our ideal for citizenship in Turkey.
The proclamation Is made In good faith
and there will be no repetition of the Czar's

Anions; the nations of the world.
The Consul-General said he would be
surprised if at least 100,000 Turkish sub
jects did not return to their native land
within the next month or so. Of the 60,
000 Armenians and other mixed national
ities In this country he estimated that
5000 at least would depart within a very
short time. Of Turkish refugees he said
there were none here, but a large colony
had settled In the provinces.
TOO EARLY TO FORM OPIXION
Irishman Says- Uttle Bloodshed
Was Caused by Revolution.
WASHINGTON.' July 80. American Am
bassador Irishman to Turkey, In a dis
patch to the States Department regarding;
recent events In Turkey and the procla
mation of a constitution, says:
"The change has been brought about
with comparatively little bloodshed, al
though It Is too early to determine
whether the new ministry of the govern
ment will run without conflict or disturb
ance. The constitution is limited and Is
the same as that granted at the beginning
of the present reign. Changes In the min
istry are taking place and efforts are be
ing made to have some of the palaces
entourage displaced."
Mr. Irishman says the populace openly
charge the palace camarilla with un
scrupulousness. The dispatch adds that a general amnesty
for political prisoners has been proclaimed
and that the Imprisoned are being released.
Swindler Gives Himself Vp.
fEW ORLEANS, La.. July 30. Moses
Schwartz, former president of the
SchwarVs Iron Foundry Co., has sur
rendered himself on a charge of obtain
ing money under false pretences, and
has been released under $10,000 bond.
Schwartz's financial trouble came to
light a few months ago, when he went
to Honduras with William AdleT, for
mer president of the State National
Bank. They were shipwrecked In sight
of the land they were headed for.
Schwartz soon returned to New Or
leans, but Adler Is still In Honduras.

capital the feeling is anything but fa
vorable to the Sultan. Even in Con
stantinople disloyal crlts were heard
duilng the recent street demonstra
tions. At a banquet given In Seres to
celebrate the re-establishment of the
constitution, the Sultan was hooted,
while the Christians at this place are
beginning to entertain misgivings as
to the sincerity of the professions of
the Toung Turks. Hardly any news
has been received from th Asiatlo
provinces, and this is regarded as dis
quieting. The Vail and the Military
Commandant at Smyrna have been dis
missed by the Young Turks, owing to
their hostile attitude toward the con
stitution. Forced to Quick Action.
The Toung Turkey uprising toward the
restoring of the constitution had been
planned for September 1. the anniversary
of the Sultan's accession to the throne,
but the meeting at Reval between King
Edward and the Emperor of Russia and
the Imminence of the Anglo-Russian re
form proposals precipitated matters and
forced the Toung Turks to take action
before this date, the object of the consti
tutional party being to forestall this pro
posal and render it superfluous. Every
body has been greatly impressed with the
perfect organVrntion of the movement and
the absolute discipline In all ranks. The
