mailed at Bangor, addressed to Mary McLain,
of this city. After the letter arrived here it
was taken out of the Office by some other per-
son than the rightful owner. The case was
mentioned to the City Marshal, who placed the
matter in the hands of officer Derrick to work
up. After considerable trouble Mr.. Derrick
found that woman named Mary Ann Mclean
had told some one about getting a letter with
money In it. He traced her from place to
place, and finally succeeded in finding her re-
siding at Mr.. F. w. Clark's. The City Mar

yesterday and arrested the woman, and
brought her to the station-house. She owned
up about taking the letter, and will have an

agents. There can be hardly any doubt, but
that hereafter funds will be furnished so as to
secure the prompt payment Of the troops.
