MIL wAuREE,s SCANDAL.
Father Gulski ExOnerated by Pufalslki's .
Marriage and Flight.


Marriage and Flight.
A Milwaukee dispatch to the New York
Sunday StGt says The recreant ex- priest,
Anton Pufhlski, charged with attempted
blackmail, and the woman who was his
partner In crime fed from this city last
night, Before starting the two went through
the form of being married, although they
had previously claimed to be man
and wife. Rev. Father Gulski, the priest
who brought the charge Of blackmail,
has been In charge of the Polish Church,
which has the largest congregation in this
city. The fact that Pulaski, aided by the
woman, had been committing various crimes
came to the knowledge of the priest, and it
was determined that they had better leave
the town. It was also agreed, after some
consultation with the clergy here, that GER
tain funds be furnished them for the pur-
pose Of having Pufalski return to France or
Rome and The woman TO go further West,
all of which was agreed to.
Pending the effort to accumulate suffl.
cient funds to furnish Pufalski with money
to return 10 Europe, 1t seems that at the
instigation of several malicious persons
Pulaski ahd the woman presented one
morning In September last Father Gulski
with an account, apparently against the
reverend father. 1t purported to be claim
for the maintenance of q child of the priest
The priest Kicked Pufalslxi out of the doors
and then had him and the woman ar
rested. The original fall of Priest Pufalski
from grace and his alliance with the woman
caused the greatest sensation ever known in
this city, and his arrest on a charge of black
mail renowned the sensation. Pending
trial Pufalbki and the woman addressed a
confession to Father Gulski, asking forgiv-
eness and promising to leave the city If re-
leased. The matter was presented to the
Court and sentence suspended.

chased for 81, 500 and a contract entered
into with Thomas B. Hizar u Son for the
brickwork and Newman g. Company for
the inside work for total of IS, sos. so. The
furniture, which was principally obtained
through the efforts of the ladies, had cost
1915 and perpetual insurance on the build
ing 500, making total cost to date of
~, 1880. About 5000 would yet be needed
for grading, curbing, paving and fencing,
which would make a total cost when en-
tirely finished of $40, ,573, so. He closed by

TIE BURRELL OUTRAGE.
A Belief that the Girl Cut Off her Owl
Hair.

Belief that the Girl Cut or her Own
Hair.
A Newport (R. L. dispatch to the New
York Times says: The Burrell outrage case
continues to be the sensation of the day. No
one will be surprised If the girl confesses
within "a hours that she cut Off her hair her
self. Within a day or two evidence has
accumulated to show that she is the only
person who knows anything about the
outrage, and In view of this general
belief much sympathy is expressed for
her father, who has been imposed upon by
the girls strange stories. A janitor of the
school building where the girl attends has
been discharged by the school committee
for having written obscene letters to her.
No evidence has come to light to show that
the girl has ever resented the questionable
attentions shown her by the janitor,
and no one believes that he so far forgot
himself as to cut off her braids.
The Mayor of the city was confident that
he had plan which would be the means of
unraveling the mystery. He made all the
necessary arrangements to have her call at
his Office in the City Hall, where he proposed
to cross-examine her. At the last moment,
however, her shrewd father saw that such a
course would not be advisable, and SO he
sent word to his Honor that he was unwill-
ing to have her appear unless she was ac-
compahied either by himself or his wife.
The Mayor refused this proposition, and SO
he abandoned his plan to solve the mystery of
the "rape Of the locks"

present one is at 8 65-1OO. The an
nual interest on the old loan was
$l99, 605.02; the annual interest on
