THEY SETTLED WITH BOGUS BILLS.
How sharpers Showed the Queer on Minis
ters That Married Them.

MIDDLETowN, CoNN., November O.
A clever swindle has been worked in
this section this week. Last Tuesday a
dapper-looking, well-dressed young man,
evidently about 90 years of age, and a
handsome. distinguished looking lady
presented themselves at the Town
Clerks Office in Old Lyme, asking for
marriage license. They gave their
names as Andrew S. Hartwell and Lii
liam Summers. The license was grant
ed and then the couple called on min
lister, who married them. Hartwell
handed the minister new SEQ bill, re-
marking that he would like TO pay fee
OF s.. The minister returned the Sl5 In
change.
The same day the same couple went
through the marriage form in Saybrook,
Old Saybrook, Wcstbrook and Clinton,
paying in each case new $50 bill and
receiving SIS in return. All OF the
ministers soon ascertained that the $40
bills were excellent countcrfeits and
each of them was out SIS. No trace Of
Hartwell and his much married wife
can be found. 1t is supposed they re-
turned to New York that evening.

SENATOR VEST ON THE RESULT.
The Missouri senator Advises Attacking
the rari6 by Special Bills.

ST. Louis, November 9.-Senator
George +. Vest, who will be elected at
the coming session of the Missouri Leg
iSlature TO succeed himself in the United
States Senate, said this evening; "'The
lesson of the recent election is simply
that the American people will not toler-
ate any political party that will pass
such an OutrageouSly unjust measure as
the Mckinley bill After the defeat of
Mr., Cleveland lSSS the Republicans
concluded that the people would sub
nit 20 ANY Increase ia the tariff. II was
was the rule for Republican leaders to
refuse 10 discuss the schedule OF the Nc
kinley bill, simply saying that the peo-
pie had given their verdict for such in
creased duties as the party leaders saw
ht 20 make. The idea was that the de-
feat Of Cleveland meant the endorse
ment of the Chicago platform written by
Mckinley, on which Harrison was
elected, declaring for tariff high
enough 70 exclude all foreign products.
In plain language, the Republicans had
a severe attack of the big head and
thought they could do as they pleased.
This election is the result"
senator Vest then outlined what he
thought the Democratic party should do.
He said: ''The Democratic party should
proceed deliberately and cautiously 10
attack the outrageous taxation of the
Mckinley bill by the enactment by the
next House OF special bills. These bills
should be sent 10 the Senate and let the
Republicans there take the responsible
ity of defeating them II they dare. No
general tariff bill should be passed. Let
the House put salt. lumber. and other
articles on the free list by special bills
and then let the Republican Senate
wreStle with them"
In concluding a lengthy interview he
said; III our party does not catch the
same disease which destroyed the power
OF the Republicans, we vii elect the
next President. and in Il few years con-
troll the senate. We must convince the
people of the United States that we do
not propose TO injure the interests Of
any class. but that we are simply at
tacking the unjust and unequal legiSla-
tiOn which has created partnership
between certain favored classes and the
Government at the expense OF the tax
payers. The Democratic party is right
on the tariff question beyond all doubt,
and that the people are fast learning
this is shown by the result OF last Tues
DAYS election all over the country.

are without funds and the trunks have
been attached for board. Miss Herndon
has husband in Chicago. THE Fa-

actors a benefit Tuesday night.
Miss Herndon was born in Green
brier county, West Virginia. Her
maiden name was Edmond. She is wei
known to many people in this city, who
will be surprised at her escapadc. Hel
sudden resolve, however, can be traced

dungeon. In an hour he had kicked a
round path to liberty and is still at

Worcester, Mass, but Putnam doesn't

on him. Still there is popular curiosity
to know how he managed to kick hole

hole by which he made his exit is about
two feet in diameter, and on the irregu-
lar rim of 1t are the marks of his boot
toe. Curious crowds inspect the wreck
