The Wrentham tragedy.

The disappearance of George Showers
seems to implicate him in the murder of
Agnes Long. Mrs. Showers claims to have
no knowledge of his intending to leave and
was much prosprated at the blow. Tuesday
at IL o'clock she returned from one of the
neighbors where she had been on an
GRAND and on approaching the house was
seen by Mr. Fisher to act rather strangely
and he went to her assistance, when in
abe back door of her house she stood
still for few seconds, and, with scream
and leap into the air, fell senseless,
and has remained unconscious the greater
part of the time, crying for George and
saying, You did not do it, did you
Gsorge?" Drs. Holden and Sanford
are her attending physicians and express
little hops of her recovery. The opinion of
Mr.. Fisher is that Mr.. Showers has commit
ted suicide. The skeleton is recognized be-
yond doubt as that of Agnes Long.-BoSton

REPORTS OF THE TRUSTEES.
Eight of the Trustees Deduct the Official
Funds Lost in the Bank Failures.

The County Commissioners yesterday ap
proved the reports OF Trustees Solomon Klepfer,
of Lawrence township, and j. L. Hunter, Of
Warren township. They will demand that all
the trustees show the amounts of indebtedness
of their respective townships, though there is no
law to compel them to do So All the trustees
who lost by the bank failures have
deducted the amounts lost from the receipts,
thinking the act of the Legislature justified them
in doing SO. None Of the reports of those who
sustained losses, excent that Of Hunter. of War
rem, will be approved, because of this deduction.
The remedy for their action in paying them
selves in some cases. out of the school and road
tax and other funds will be for their successors to
bring suit on the official bonds of their predeces-
sors for the money they have failed to turn
over. Warren township had some general funds
in the treasury. When this is the case the trds-
tee Is legally entitled, by the act of the Legis-
lature, to enough of them to make good his loss.
Trustee Kitz, in his final report, submitted yes
terday, made no report Of the township indebt-
edness, although it is known to be over $18,0 900.
