that the following is the manner in which
editor Stead gained his information

The Telegram publishes an interview with
the spritulastic medium, Mrs. J. William
Fletcher. in which she describes the origin
of the Gdfeae's investigations. She gave
private and public seances in London some
years ago, and her case became famous in the
newspapers, when she was arrested on the
charge Of witchcraft and sent to Jail one year
While there she became acquainted with
some Of the most depraved females in Lon
don, who endeavored. according to her story, +,
TO use her as u decay. The whole secret of
their vile traffic was confdesl to her, she
claims, and upon her release informed some
cergymen. They paid no attention to her,
aud she communicated with editor Stead.
That information, she SAYS. was the basis of
his subsequent Investigations. Mrs. Fletch.
er intends writing a book about what she saw
and heard.

Something over twenty years ago the
large stone building on the corner OF Kaa-
humanu aud Merchant streets, now occu-
pied by F. 4. sehaefer & Co., was con-
pected by stone wall with the corner Of
the alley-way that rms from Merchant to
Queen street, opposite Bethel street. Mr..
Thomas Spencer, then doing business as q
ship chandler on Queen street, put up a shed
roof from the inside face of this wall, and
used the building thus made as store
house. Afterwards Mr.. Frank Brown pur-
chased the lot on which the shed stood, and
has occupied it ever since.
During the present week the old building
has been torn down to make room for a
brick or stone building that Brown x Co.
intend putting mp. Just at present, to en-
able them to carry on their large business as
wholesale dealers in wines and liquors,
