THE DEXTER MYSTERY.
A Statement by Mr.. Wheeler of Dexter
Mr.. BIRRON'S FINANCES.

DEXTER, May lG The evidence given in
the late dispatches to show a deficiency in
Barrons accounts, has called out from Mr..
Wheeler, of Dexter n statement that at the
time of Barrons death, and for a long time
previous thereto he had Sll00 in United
States bonds, deposited with Barron for safe
keeping; that he instructed Barron to con-
vert them into money and use the same for
himself or loan to a third person whenever he
desired to do so, and could make the money
do better than in bonds.
Some of Mr.. Barron's friends, while admit
ting the damaging nature Of the Straw and
Crafts entries, claim that the above facts will
show that Barron had available funds at hand
and that there was little necessity for him to
charge off in the manner alleged, for the want
of cash.
