HIS WRITING OR NOT?
The Defendant In a Suit For sIander
Doubts His Signature.

PARIS, March pa small audience gath
house to listen to the referee hearing before
Judge Walker of Bridgton. This, says the
Oxford Democrat. was an action for slander
brought by Simeon Briggs Of Paris, against
E. III. Austin of Buckfeld. At the death of
his mother, Mr.. Briggs was appointed by
the probate court administrator of her es-
tate. His bond as administrator was signed
by himself, Mr.. E. FL. Austin and Mr..
Charles A. Warren. Mr. Briggs claims that
some time after this bond was given, in at
Robinson Dean of Bucktield, he was in
formed by Mr.. Dean that he could not let
him have the money on account of the
"scrape" which he (Mr. Briggs had gotten
into.
Mr.. Briggs ased to what he referred and
was informed of a report coming from Mr..
Austin that he (Austin) never signed Briggs
bond and that If his name was on IL, 1t was a
forgery. Mr.. Briggs wentIto Mr.. Austin and
asked him what he meant by such story,
know | never signed that b0nd~ and was
ordered with threats off Mr.. Austin's prem
ises. He claims that Mr.. Austin repeatedly
made the charge that the signature was a
forgery and Mr.. Briggs either committed the
crime or was the means OF having the for
gerry made. Even up to the time of service
of the writ upon Mr.. Austin it is claimed he
branded MI. Briggs as forger and threat
ened to have him arrested.
Mr.. Austin claims in defense that he has
no recollection of signing the bond and has
denied that he ever signed it, but upon being
shown this signature besides others which
he admitted were his, he said, "The sigma
ture looks very much like mine, and l would
not swear either that it is or is not my own,
though have no recollection of signing this
bond" Mr.. Austin also claimed through his
counsel that the words were not actionable
under the law as no one believed that Mr.
Briggs was guilty Of forgery and hence no
damage was caused him by the charge. De-
ciSiOn was reserved.

MR.. BRIGGS VISITED PORTLAND.
The Man Whose Travels Helped to
conplIcate sawtelIe's Case.

Boston, March 25.-rhe Globe has spec.
ial from Dover, N. H., which says that Geo.
III. Briggs, ex-treasurer of the Dover Shoe
Company, who fled to Montreal for protec-
tion at the time of that corporations imam
cial difficulties last February, has been dis
covered living in retirement at hotel In
Berwick. Maine.
The despatch further says that the pres
ence of Briggs within the limits OF the Uni
ted States will be gratifying news to many
New England business men.
Mr.. Briggs said that his lawyer advised
him to leave town for few days, and he un-
derstood the legal gentleman meant for him
to take flight. He said: ~ w n directly to
Montreal. and stepped at the balmoral HO-
tel, where l registered In my own name and
address. No sooner, however, had passed
over the line than became sorry for my act,
but now was there, and nothing could be
done except to watch the progress Of events.
Finally, however, decided to come ba k to
the States, and did so. was In Portland

and inquired about him. He thought /
might be stopping there under that name.
The fact was, however, l was In lodgings

over to Berwick to avoid liability which, un-
der the laws Of New Hampshire, might have

WELL SUPPLIED WITH CASH.
canton's Missing Treasurer Took
With Him About s 600.

CANTON, Mass, March 25.-There does
not seem to be much doubt now in the minds
Of many people, although they are 10th to be-
lieve it, that William E. Mcpherson, the
missing treasurer Of the town of Canton,
who disappeared March IA, is a defaulter,
his defalcation amounting to about $500.
The selectmen are the authority for saying
that the shortage will not vary 500 either
way from $500. When he went away March
IA he Is thought to have had about $1,000 of
the town funds In his possession. The night
before he went away at a meeting of the se-
lectmen he told them he had In his pocket
5000. The collector paid him afterward
about $500, mostly In checks, but about
800 In cash. The morning he disappeared
before he went to Boston he deposited the
checks in the bank, keeping the cash paid BY
the collector, and drew 1888 besides. This
would give him nearly S1100 which he had In
his possession. He left at home Sl21, and
the balance would not vary far from $1,000
he took with him, probably to furnish him
self subsistence during his temporary aber-
ration of mind. He left In the bank, when
he went away, about $4,000, which he might
have drawn, but the selectmen have stopped
payment uf all checks at the bank, SO that it
will be impossible for him to draw any more.

WASHINGTON, March 25.-Some time ago.
Congressman Buchanan of New Jersey pre-
ferred charges against Superintendent Kim
ball, of the life saving service. Today, Mr..
Kimball appeared before the House commit
tee of commerce and answered the charges.
which related to regulation requiring the
men to wear uniforms, to the methods of
purchasing supplies. and to changes made in
llfe-saving apparatus. Superintendent Kim
ball presented large number of affidavits,
showing that the uniforms supplied to the
men were necessary to distinguish them from
the beachcombers and tv protect them prop
erly from the weather; that in making pur-
chases of supplies he had always advertised
for proposals whenever practicable, and that
the changes he had made in appliances were
all in the direction of greater simplicity.
The committee will pass upon the charges
next week, but there seems to be no reason
for believing that their verdict will result in
anything but complete exoneration. Mr..
Kimball, who is Maine man, has brought
the service to a high state of efficiency and
has kept 1t out of politics. 1t is limited that
bottom of these charges, and that they were
trumped up merely for the purpose of re-
venge.
