The grand jury has Indicted Mrs. Jo hanna Walter, otherwise known as Jo hanna Medics and Maygies, for perjury. The indictment was returned last Friday, hut was -not Riven ont -with the others mailt public at the time for the reason that it was desired to arrest the woman before she had notice of the grand jury's action. A bench warrant was issued and placed in the hands of Deputy Marshal Cusiclt. Mrs. Walter was taken into cus tody by that official Saturday night, when she was found in the locality known as "Cabbage alley." in the indictment it is set forth that March 1. 1805, Mrs. Walter tiled suit for divorce from her husband, alleging cruel tieatment anrl failure to provide the neces saries of life. March l.'l of the same year the defendant in the divorce suit filed an swer, and September 2.S filed a cross-bill asking divorce from his wife on the grounds of adultery, naming Fritz Schlas 7.us, alias Michel Bertuszles, as corcspond 1 nt. The acts complained of, it was alleg ed were committed at Mr. Walter's home c">'. E street northwest, and in Baltimore at 11:! Harnmerbacher court. ^a-lter. it is said, was a servant in Mr. \\-alter s household before he married her.

No Proof Submitted. Some time between the y?ars 1878 and lfcfcO, the paid Jurs Schlaszus suddenly dis appeared from liuss, leaving no trace. T here is no proof of his death, it is charged, and Johanna, whose true name is said to be Anna, has never procured a divorce from him After his disappearance, Johanna lived eight consecutive years, it is said, at Russ with one I>avid Bertuszies as his mis tress. This same David Berthuszies had a sen ramed Michel Bertuszies, whose moth er was named Arina Kaivies prior to her marriage to the said David Bcrtuszies, and is now dead. i here developed, according: to the charges, an intrigue between this young man and his father's mistress, the said Johanna, and in consequence of this the two left Russ ar.d came to America. Whether or not they c:.me together tne petitioner has not yet ! een able to lear n, he says, but he will be able to prove that they lived together as man and wife in this country, and that she frequently spoke of the said Michael Ber tu>zies as her husband. It is on the answer to this cross bill, which denied all the charges made, that the indictment has been found, it being al leged that Mrs. Walter swore falsely, felo niously -nd corruptly. Committed (o Jail. Mrs. Walter, a decrepit old woman, seem ingly sixty-odd years of age and able to walk, but slowly on account of her infirmi ties. was brought before Justice Cole in chambers shortly before 12 o'clock, and at the suggestion of the assistant district at torney was committed to jail in default of bail.

Meeting AddrcMwed by Col. Pcarrc and Mr. Gould. Special Correspondence of The Evening St:ir. ROCKVILLE, Md., October 3, 18!>8. A republican meeting was held at the Opera House, this place, Saturday after noon. The meeting was purely informal and no presiding officer was appointed. The stage was occupied by prominent re publicans of the county, and addresses were made by Ashley M. Gould of this county and Colonel George A. Pearre of Allegany, the republican candidate for Congress from the sixth district. Mr. Gould, who was a prominent candidate for the nomination for Congress at the Fred erick convention, and who afterward, by his declination at Oakland, secured the nomination of Colonel Pearre, in his re marks paid a high tribute to that gentle man. and urged that all past animosities be laid aside, pledging the nominee the full vote cf the party in this county and predicting his triumphant election in No vember. At the close of his remarks Mr. Gould in troduced Col. Pearre as tlie next repre sentative from this congressional district, and as that gentleman stepped to the front he was greeted with rounds of applause. He explained^) the auiience that the meet ing was purely informal, and that as the democrats otfrthe restrict had so far failed to secure a nominee or uroinulgate a plat form of prin<?Yple^.J he should not enter into a discussion of issues that might arise in the future. He complimented Mr. Gould for his unselfish action in withdrawing at Oakland for the sake of harmony in the party and pledge# the good feeling of Al legany for Montgomery in any future con tests that may arise. He paid a glowing tribute to the republican party and Presi dent McKinley and claimed that its prin ciples were the only ones suited to great emergencies, such as the civil war of 18G1 and the war with Spain, which last has cloged with such glorious results. At the close of his remarks Col. Pearre was greeted with three rousing cheers, giv en at the instance of his former competitor, Mr. Gould.
