The Last Turnpike.
JSpecial Correspondence.l |


New HAVEN, Oct. Sl.-One of the i'm
portant bills to be presented for passage by
the next legislature will be for an act ap
propriating money for the purchase of the
only surviving turnpike or toll road in
this state. This road extends from New
Haven to Derby and is about ten miles
long. It is travelled a good deal and Is o
profitable investment TO the stockholders
The road is controlled by stock com
pany with q capital of $4,000. 1t is divided
into shares of 500 each, and at present
there are twenty stockholders, the majority
of whom are women. The company has .
board of directors composed of women.
To travel over this stretch of road costs
the driver of a horse twelve cents. Foi
team a charge of fifteen cents is made
A foot passenger is charged two cents
1t is monopoly against which the peo
pie have protested for years, but which
has been sustained through the influence
of the stockholders. The stock pays {
per cent, and there is none of it for sale.
The people have declared that, unless
the road is made highway, they will
build one parallel with it, and fearing that
such an act would ruin the value of theii
property the stockholders have agreed tt
sell to the state for 5000, and an effort
will be made to get an appropriation fol
that amount. If this is done the act will
wipe out of existence the last of the olo
toll road system in this state.

FALSE INFORMATION.
A Census Clerk CompIicates tho Bering
eeR Question.

A Census Clerk COmplfcates tho Bertnn z
sea Question.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 13.-The Post to-
day published an article to the effect
that Ivan Petroff, special agent of the
state department, and formerly in the
census bureau, has been detected in the
act of furnishing false information to
this government in relation to the seal
industry in Alaska, which has been en-
bodied ia the preparation OF the Bering
sea case for arbitration. Continuing,
the article says:
When the state department began
preparing the Bering sea case, the inves-
tigation disclosed the name of Ivan
Petrof more frequently than any other
author of literature on the resources OF
Alaska. Upon inquiry for him being
instituted, he was found to be a special
agent in the census bureau. 1t was also
learned that he had taken the census in
1880 and 1890, and written monograph,
issued by the bureau of statistics OF the
treasury department, on Alaska. In
addition, he also assisted Bancroft in
the preparation OF the latter's history
of Paraguay. Petroff was summoned
from he census bureau to 4the state de-
partment aud entrusted with an exami-
nation into and compilation of certain
facts relating to the sealing industry.
Some time after his work was submit
ted to the department. One of the gov
ernment's special attorneys, while ex-
amining data, discovered an error. A
closer examination showed that nearly
the entire information furnished by
Petrof was falsified, ard in manner
which left no doubt of his wilful intent
to deceive. The information was al
ready incorporated in the United States
case as sent to London, and
formed part of the arch upon
which the government claim rested, al
though it was not the keystone by any
means. The British government was at
once notified that the United States was
led into errors of statement, and in
formed that correction would be made
when the counter case, as the supple
mentary papers were termed, was sub.
mitted.
The discovery created considerable
excitement in official circles. The ques.
ton has naturally arisen, if Petroff's
work was falsified in one instance, are
not his census figures also unreliable?
This is an inquiry that can only be
after tedious and perhaps
expensive investigation. Curiously
enough, there is no law upon the statute
books touching the case, and Petrof
will simply lose his government posi-
ton. He is a Russian ysbirth and 60
years old. He lived 40 years in Alaska.
The officials of the state department
and the interior, when shown the article
this evening affirmed itscorrectness, but
declined to say ANYTHING further ]

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MILWAUKEE, Nov. 49, Society circles
were startled by rumor which spread
like wild6re that Col. Gustav Pabst,
eldest son of Capt. Fred Pabst, president
OF the world-famous Pabst Brewing
company, was married at San Francisco
to Miss Margaret Mather Wednesday
last. Captain Pabst admitted that he
was informed by his son OF the wedding,
but declined to say anything further.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 13.-Two days
before Margaret Mather began her en-
gagement here three weeks ago, G. A.
Pabst. son of the wealthy Milwaukee
brewer. appeared at the California
hotel and engaged suite of rooms,
numbers 600. 6O2 and 604. When Miss
Mather arrived the rooms were occu-
pied by herself and niece and Pabst
1t was reported then that Pabst and
Mather had been married, but both
denied the story. Miss Mather's niece,
however, confided to friend that they
had been married near Chicago shortly
after the actress secured a divorce from
her husband, Emil Haberkorn.
While here Pabst has been very de-
voted to the beautiful actress and was
constantly in her company. He attended
every performance, and when Miss
Nather was taken i'll was unremittent
in his attentions to her. The papers
have commented on young Pabst's de-
votion to the actress, but she said Pabst
was merely friend and that they were
not married. Pabst expressed himself
rs willing and anxious to marry her,
but said that so farshe had refused to be
united to him.
They could not have been married last
Wednesday in San Francisco, as reported
in Chicago, as Miss Mather left here
last Sunday to play an engagement in
the southern part of thesstate, and has
appeared in Fresno and Los Angeles
during the week. If the couple were
married here, they kept the secret we'll,
as the newspapers could obtain nothing
about it.
The fact that Miss Mather's niece,
who accompanied her on the trip, had
admitted that her aunt was married to
Pabst was ascertained late tonight after
rumors of their marriage had reached
here from Chicago. The niece confessed
the marriage to friend while here, in
explanation of the intimacy existing
between her aunt and Pabst.
1t was learned at the California hotel
that Pabst registered there October 22d
and engaged rooms, as before stated.
Miss Mather arrived with her company
next day, October 23d. Pabst remained
only two days, and left October oath on
. business trip to the east, as was stated
at the time. He returned here Novem-
Der 9th, and on November 9th left, in
company with Miss Mather, for Los
Angeles.
