A BLACKMAILER AT WALK•ERTON (The Telescope) Tony Zuber, a teamster living in the West Ward, was found guilty by a jury at General Sessions,last week of.sending a threatening letter to an old and highly respected citizen,. Dr. B. T. Porter. It ryas brought out that pr. Porter', was not the only citizen on whom'Zuber .used his blackmailing •tactics; ` 'tuber's scheme waste accuse decent Ma's of having. `irnp'roper relations With his house -keeper, Mrs. Emma Helwig, and then try to• frighten them to "come •and Settle." The letter written to Dr. Por- ter on November 21st:, read as follows: —"Mr. Porter; Dear' Sir, you will re- member the 30th. day of Octpber, 1916,. what was you doing at my 'place that. day, and I now give you to understand unless you come . to settle, I will take proceedings against you at once: I remain, yours truly, Anthony Zuber, Box :176. ' The letter was written by Mrs. Helwig, at Zuber's dictation. Dr. Porter met Zii,ber on the street just-, after receiving the' letter and invited him to explain what the letter meant or ; to come and Flay a charge in _ police court, but : Zuber ' walked ' away. The Doctor then had Chief Ferguson' visit the Zuber place to interview Zub r and his housekeeper. Mrs. Helwig acused the Doctor, .to Chief Ferguson, • and Zuber said the Doctor would have to. "corne aril settle". Doctor Porter' then lard a charge in Court against Zuber•. At the trial the Doctor swore that he had not been at the Zuber place in four years and was able, to prove by witness- es that tie was elsewher•i jlwhen, Zuber claimed he was at his p age, on Oct. 30th. It' was brought:: put that Mrs., (Dr,) Porter -holds. a•, mortgage of about 6200 against Zuber's property and. if. Zuber 4ogld' have wheedled a clear' re• receipt out of the Doctor it would haye , been "easy money." Evidence was giv- en that Mrs. Helwig bad :written' an- other well-known citizen to tonne up and settle, and three others had received ver hal -notice to dei the "settling" act;. but,in every case without effect. ,..‘She tried to "squeeze". one man for $200- forsowing undue familiarity in a sample to* at -a local'Hotel. , Later she reduced ller de- mand to $50 but was unable to get him to liquidate.' M4•s. Helwig ralso wrote intimidating letters to a. prominent Han- over.citizen which were ignored by the recipient. "The prosecution brought' a witness from .Mrs. 13elwig's home village of Allen Park to give evidence as to her general i eputatipn there but it was ruled that his .evidence was not 'admissable. County Crown Attorney Dixon was 'assisted in ' the prosecution by Davits Robertson. K C. The prisoner;was de- • fended by Mr. 0. E' Klett,; who put' up a great fight. The jury did' not take long to find a verdict . of guilty. Both Zuber a'nd' Mrs: Hal•wig -went in the witness box, ' but their story was not one that would convince any jury, and . if it influenced the jury in any way, ,it, ho doubt, infiueneed them, againstthe ac- cused, 1t r►ould be well tor patrons. of • the rut -al mail system to take not of Sections; 1'6 and 17 of the Ruial Moil °Delivery •I gitlatinns:—(t6) '"Ailmail natter c eposi ted in:• his" box by the .patron to be collected by the courier, must be'fully prepaid, The practise.of .placing money in the box to pay, the'p-istage whichhas hitherto.prevailed"is to be discontinued and the courier shall not be required to collect any -mail matter that does not bear!the requisite : amount' of -Postage.
