Town Offices.
RUTLAND, March !


Kditor Rutland Globe 1t will give
pleasure to many of our citizens to learn
that some of our town officers, who had
expressed desire to be relieved of the
offices to which they had been elected,
have, at length, yielded to the arguments
Of their fellow townsmen, and will dis
charge the duties of their respective offices
the coming year.
This is particularly gratifying at the
present time, inasmuch as Rutland is at
tempting reform in the matter of compen-
sating her ofiicers-a most worthy attempt,
and should receive the support of all good
citizens. To decline town office, at this
time, without reasons prominently Visible,
would be to cast a stone at this reform.
which am assured no good citizen will
do, after he has deliberately Investigated
the subject. CITIZEN.

A Gold Chain LITTER Caught.

| In the various attempts to rob jewelry
stores throughout the country, one of our
Rutland firms had an experience Saturday.
About noon person of good address STEP
ped into BIessrs Marshall & Cadys estab-
llshment, No. Merchants row, and asked
TO see some gold chains. Mr.. Thompson,
the clerk, proceeded to show several from
their elegant assortment, and soon after
went to dinner, when Mr. Marshall waited
on the customer. -
The supposed gentleman stated that he
was from Montreal, ON his way to Boston,
and stopping at the Bardwell house, wait
ing for remittance from Montreal, and
that he wished to buy watch and chain
worth about $500. Some one happening
to come in and call for watch that had
been left for repairs, Mr.. Marshall turned
round to reach it down. While thus occu-
pied the customer quietly made his selec-
ton of gold chain and put it in his pocket
After some further conversation the GUS
toner having remained half an hour, left
the store. Mr.. Marshall proceeded to put
up the chains, and after the man had been
gone some minutes, missed one.
| AS soon as he could get relieved Mr..
Marshall started out to find the thief, visit
ing tho Bardwell, where the clerk stated
that no person of the description was
stopping. Mr.. Marshal then went to the
depot, the eating saloon and various places,
and finally secured warrant and the aid
of the officers. While all hands were con-
| eulting what to do next, the person sought
after came along and was arrested.
Deputy Sheriff George W. Crawford in
following the prisoner up stairs saw him
take something from his pocket and put in
his mouth. In the sheriffs office Mr..
Crawford requested the fellow to spit on
his hand, and thus recovered the chain.
He was then taken by Mr.. Grand Juror
L. W. Redngton before Justice Henry
Hall, where he gave his name as VIM.
Thompson, aged 38. Justice Hall bound
him over for $500. Not being able to fur
nish bail Mr.. Crawford mdrshaled him 10
that heaven which no epic dream has yet
depicted. the county Jail. "a AA1 2
IL is understood that States Attorney
Everts will file an information against him,
when he will come into court plead guilty
and take his sentence at the present term
of the county court.
He inquired the character of the work
done at the Vermont state prison, and
when told shoes were manufactured he
remarked 81 shant have to learn new
trade them"
Special commentator is due Deputy
Sheriff Crawford for his prompt action and
management of this case

Bristow Now Assailed.

NEW York, March 10.
A Louisville letter to the New York
Herald states that before the close of the
war ore Taylor delivered 10 mules out of
100, said to have been contracted for with
Henry Rowland, quartermaster at Nash
vile in 1865. He was paid for the "a
some years after. John II. Thompson of
Kentucky, claiming to be the principal for
whom Taylor was the alleged agent, sued
the government for the loss of $40 mules,
which they alleged were purchased under
contract with Rowland, and which they
sold at loss of 1925 per head. Benjamin
II. Bristow, the present secretary of the
treasury, was attorney for claimant. BY a
bare majority the court gave the whole
amount claimed, ordering the payment OF
$10S,75 for $40 mules never delivered to
the United States. The sum was paid in
80 days after the judgment, which was a
few weeks before Mr. Brstow became sec-
rotary. The letter says there is no similar
case on record where the government failed
to appeal TO the supreme court The letter
also saws the statement is made that Bristow
received one-half of the judgment, $54, 1916,
for his fee, and 5000 additional for pre-
venting an appeal.
SECRETARY BRIsTow's SATISFACTORY Rx-
PLANTATION.
WASHINGTON, March 10.
The charges printed in New York Satur-
day morning that Secretary Bristow some
years ago participated in collecting fraud
uent mule claim, and took half the pro-
ceeds, is pronounced by the secretary to be
wholly false. He did argue the case re-
ferred to before the court of claims in the
regular practice of his profession at time
when he held no public office, and the
court adjudged it just claim, Judge
Drake dissenting on the legal grounds
alone, and not because fraud was anywhere
charged, and the claim was paid by the
treasury upon the order of the court. The
secretary did not take half or anywhere
near one half of the claim, but was paid a
very usual fee in such cases. He had
nothing whatever to do with the case in
any of its stages before the department or
in its preparation, but after the proofs we're
taken he arranged the case, and argued it
before the court. 1t is reported at length
in volume 7, opinions court of claims.
