car-hook murderer, publishes letter, In
which he says that absence from the city pre-
vented his noticing the report that a(teen
thousand dollars had been paid Mrs.. Putnam
for her letter to Governor Dix, ln behalf of
his son. He says the story Ia entirely false;
he does moi know that he ever saw Mrs. Put.
nam. hui asserts that neither he nor any of
Fosters friends have ever offered or paid Mrs.
Putnam any sum whatever, as an inducement
for the letter.
Mrs. Putnam also publishes letter request
ing to be allowed to correct the statement
that she had received money for writing the
letter to Governor Dix begging for commu-
taiiop of Fosters sentence. She says she has
never received any money, nor been offered a
bribe 10 any form, and that the letter was ner
own and expressed her honest feelings.
The brother of the murdered Putnam closes
his published appeal for justice against lhe
murderer in these words "SileDce Ia not q
proof of irdiffsrehce, but oftentimes the re-
sult of faith and trust. Faith In our judiciary

By compelling Colonel l.. W. Spralt TO serve

Aaron Logan has got into hornets nest,
from which It is not likely that he will escape
Without feeling the sling of the law. In ad-
dillon to the warrant already spoken OF In
The NEWS as Issued by Trial Justice Levy,
Colonel Spralt has taken out another Warrant
against him at the Office of Trial Justice molo'
nv. The affidavit upon which this warrant is
based charges the coroner with onclal mis-
conduct in several particulars.
First. That there was no reason for the In
ouest, no suspicious circumstances being con-
nected with the death of the person over
whese body |. was held, 1t having been SHOWN
that the deceased had been sick for some time
and had been regularly attended by physl-
clan. The law provides for the holding oil ON
inquest only in cases where some suspicious
circumstances are coz nected with the death.
Second That the coroner, In arTesiing Colo
mel Spratt, and forcibly compelling him to
serve upon the jury, violated the law, which
expressly states that citizen may be fined,
but not arrested, tor refusing to serve on an
inquest.
Third. That the coroner, In abusive terms,
refused to allow one of the jurors on the in
quest to question witness, and arrested him
for 8, doing, thereby violating the law.
Fourth. That the coroner was guilty OF Off
cial misconduct in refusing 10 allow the jury
10 entertain proposed verdict, and declaring
that they should render no other verdict thar
one which suited him.
In this case, as in that one Wnicn came u[
before Trial Justice Levy, the coroner waived
an examination, and gave bonds to appear fol
