II 'RicHARp" KEAR, WHO DIED AT nrxRRsvrLlR,
Pa, ABOUT TIE YsAR 1855 Was THE SANE
MAN KsowN IN ENGLAND A "B.xyAxrN"
xRAl, TEEN als GRANDSON n A MILLIONAIRE.
A letter Of inquiry, sent on the rounds by
Health Officer Townshend about Ave years ago,
may result In making VIM. Morris, an English-
man, millionaire. In September, 1885, Nor
ris, who resided d No. 81 Newlsnd street., Cole
ford, Gloucestershirs, England, was extremely
anxious TO learn the place and date of the death
Of his grsndfsther, Benjamin Ksar, an sccen-
trio old man, an engineer b. occupation, who,
about the yoar 1916, emigratsd to this country.
He had not been here long before he ceased to
communicate with his relatives and friends in
England, but IL was learned somehow that he
was engaged In coal mining. In his letter to
DR.. Townshsnd, Morris wrote.
II am quite aware that this 10 very meaRer
information. but unfortunately IL 10 all can
give. In England it would not be deemed suf-
fcient to find tho man, but % Americans are
do am not without hope that my quest will
be successful"
LOOKING ron THE Lost.
The health records of this city showed that
no person named Benjamin Kear had ever died
here. and the letter was sent from city to city,
but no trace Of the dead man was found. These
facts were reported to the grandson, but he
still cherished hope, and at last has received
information that may lead him to the last rest
ing place OF his maternal grandfather and to
fortune a. we'll At the time the first letter
was received the case attracted considerable
attention, and among those who saw the pub
lished mention of Il. were persons who claimed
to have known the Old man.
Morris in the meantime received q letter
from ID. L. Ronaldson Of New York giving the
information that man named Kear had lived
at Pottsville, Pa, where no was in the coal
mining business, and from another source he
learned that his grandfather had lived in Full
ton, Ohio.
WAS BENJAMIN KKAR OF ENGLAND RICHARD"
KEAR OF AMERICA?
Morris wanted the health officer there to look
for his grandfather's burial place and the let
ter was forwarded to Chief Burgess of the Potts
vile, Pa, police. With the assistance of Health
Officer Prick he learned that Richard" Kear
died in Minersville. Pa, about 1865. The rec
ords show that he was an Englshman. He was
q coal operator, aud 1t is stated left fortune of
81, SOC. 900. The papers, including the infor-
nation thus obtained were received by Health
Officer Townshend few days ago, and he for
warded them to the person who expects soon to
become q millionaire. Detectives have been
employed in the case to learn what became Of
benjamin" Kear, and it 10 thought likely that
they will be able to prove that Richard" Kear
was none other than the grandfather Of William
Morris

SELLING LOTTERY TICKETS.
Charles Thompson, Jr, Held In $500
Bail for the Grand Jury.

Saturday afternoon in the Police Court when
the case of Lawyer Chas. Thompson, jr., charged
with violating the mail and lottery laws was
called Mr.. H. L. West, city editor Of the Wash
ington Post, was called to prove that the de-
PENDANT made the statement contained in an
interview printed in that paper.
Superintendent jas. E. Bell OF the city de-
livery of the post Office gave evidence how the
mail had been delivered prior to the time that
the defendant was required to produce power
OF attorney for it's receipt from NJ A. Dauphin.
Witness told Of the disappearance of special
delivery letter that had been addressed to NJ A.
Dauphin and which was receipted for by box
clerk. IL was after that matter was investi-
gated that Mr. Thompson was required to OBJ
tain power Of attorney. Witness told of the
conference between post Office officials and the
Judge Miller remarked that this conference
looked az though Mr.. Thompson was vntrapped
into putting tbs moose around his own neck.
MIR. Armes replied that that was exactly what
they did and added that Mr.. Thompson was
blind enough to let them do it.
Judge Miller here took occasion to depounce
the means resorted to by the prosecution. De-
tectives he said, are to detect crime and not to
make criminals. The judge thought 1t singu-
lar that after Mr.. Thompson had furnished the
power Of attorney that he was permitted to go
right along and use the mails in o manner that
they thought were illegal.
Mr.. Armes expressed himself a. thoroughly
satisfied with the conduct OF the officers and he
did not desire in any manner to shift the re-
sponsibility He was willing to stand by the
case. az he had made IL ont

Judge Miller referred briefly to tho law aud
the evidence, and after speaking of the tangled
mass OF testimony said that il appeared from

Observation-Disclosures Changes.
Correspondence Of The EVENING STAR
ROCKVILLE, Sept 81.
Political affairs in this county are at present
very quiet. For some time efforts have been
made by both parties to hunt up all non-voters
who are entitled to registration and get their
names on the books. So far as present appear
ances indicate the campaign in this county
Will continue to be quiet one, with but
little change in the relative strength Of the two
parties. 1t in pretty generally understood
here among those familiar with the views of
the democratic leaders that Senator German
and his wing Of the party were strongly in
favor Of the nomination Of Mr.. u. II. Kcedy
OF Washington county for Congress and
that the nomination and final acceptance
OF Mr.: Mckaig was quite o surprise to them.
II Is also we'll known fact that the bad feeling
heretofore existing between the two factions
while IL has been partially allaysd during
the present national contest, IL NOS dead, and
that both sides are eagerly watching for points
OF advantage when the next contest for state
supremacy u inAugurated. The republicans Of
the county appear to be working along very
quietly and using their best efforts to get out
full vote Of the party. No public meeting Of
either party has yet been announced.
The following Is correct statement Of the
number of persons newly registered and
stricken from the list of voters in ths several
election districts Of this county at the septem-
Der sitting OF the registers: Registered First
district, IL; second, IS; third, 8; fourth, so;

In speaking Of the action of the
Grand Body upon the most important
question which came before it, the
Louisville Commercial Of yesterday
says:
A severe blow was dealt the Cerneau
branch of Masonry in this State by
the Grand Lodge in it's action yester.
day. After the report Of the Commit
tee on Finance had been adopted at
the morning session, the report of the
Committee on Jurisprudence, involv-
ing the Cerneau matter, came up,
and the remainder of the day was
given up to it's consideration. The
result was a rout of the advocates Of
Cerneauism. Grand Master Clarke's
decision on the constitutional amend
ment adopted one year ago practi-
cally nullified it's declaration that Ger
neau Masonry was cl..ndestine and
lille Ultimate. The jurisprudence COM
mittee appointed by him naturally
supported his view of the question,
but, after warm debate, which last
