Supposed Post office Robbers.

Edward Hart one of a gang of four ar
rested at Vergennes last Wednesday on
suspicion of being implicated in the nu-
merous post Office robberies that have
occurred in Vermont during the past
few months, was arraigned before U. S.
Commissioner Johnson In Burlington
Friday. U. S. District attorney John NJ.
Senter of Montpelier prosecuted. After
the testimony of two witnesses had been
taken the hearing was continued until
the End. H. II. Gardner told of the Sc.
GREETING of tools, drills, powder and fuse
which are in the hands of the officers.
Adm Perkins testified as to seeing Hart
hide the tools under stump fence not
far from his place of residence, half
mile or more out of Vergennes, and as to
his finding them and notifying Of
ficer MiddlebroOk of Vergennes. Mr..
Middlebrook got the tools and returned
with Constable Bates to arrest the fell
lows just as they also returned to the
place looking Cor their hidden nipple
ments, Two of the gang made no at
tempt to resist arrest but the other two
ran off across the lots. The chase con-
tinued for two miles or more, the officers
being in hot pursuit AS fast as they
passed farmers house he joined in the
race and finally the two, Eldridge and
his pard, were surrounded by 20 men,
and captured. Eldridge, Driscoll and
Williams will probably not have their
hearings until Harris case is disposed of.
In the past nine months p post offices
in the State have been burglaraized.
Among these were those at North Ben
nington, Poultney, Castleton, Morrisvllle,
Williamstown, Glover, Williston, Yer
gennes, Fairfax, Mount Holly, Hartford,
Windsor, West Berkshire, Guilford and
Ludlow. Hart, Eldridge, Williams and
Driscoll are suspected of having hand
in several of these burglaries. Deputy
Marshal Stearns thinks that they belong
to the same gang as John Ryan, alias
''The Badger Kid" who is now in the

OUR MONTPELIER LETTERS.
MoNrrE11ER, Nov. 18th, 1894.

MONTPELIER, Nov. 18th, 1894.
The bill to promote uniform legisla-
| ton to conform with all the States, al
though reported favorably by the Judic-
larry Committee. was refused a third
reading in the House, through the deft
| and able efforts of Mr.. Ladd of Alburgh.
The following day, Mr.. Foster of Cabot,
| moved to rescind the vote, but there
were more "noes" than the day before.
Able counsel are of the opinion that the
Legislature lowered itself number of
rounds in the ladder of high class legis-
| lation, by not making this conformity
measure law. But all men do not
think alike. After the bill was twice
killed, and hammered after it was dead,
with the evident purpose of letting it
know there was a hereafter, then Mr..
Laid offered resolution, that should
any exigency or necessity occur whereby
commissioner is required to meet with
commissioners in other States, on mat
teTs pertaining to conformity in the
laws, the Governor shall have power to
appoint, which was adopted. Mr.. Ladd
commended that this would Obviate the
necessity of creating another State office,
with writing between the lines" and
a majority of the House agreed with him.
number of the "SolOns," although ''wise
men and true" do not know how to vote
on so weighty measure without more
time to give the matter thought and con-
sideratiOn.
Ten more petitions from as many
towns were offered Thursday forenoon,
for female suffrage. There has been an
unusual pressure at this session to give
women the right of franchise. The
honorable body" does not favor the
measure.
A little later:-This Thursday, after
noon, House bill, 1866, IAN act to extend
municipal suffrage to women who are
tax payers" was called up. 1t was the
''war-note" for lively and earnest dis
cussion of the "tender subject" however
it was handled without gloves by some.
The bills most earnest advocates were
Mr.. Mann of Wilmington, Mr.. Parker of
Vergennes, Mr.. Fuller of Barton, Mr..
Lord of Montpelier, while many others
opposed it. The yeas and nays for
third reading were demanded, which re-
suited in 100 yeas to 107 nays, hence it
will be seen that this is nearer woman
suffrage" than ever before. But there is
chance for the third reading to be re-
fused and the bill "killed" tomorrow
morning, as that is the time set for the
third reading.
House bills 40, "An act to incorporate
the Green Mountain Club" 141, IAN
act to incorporate the Bennington and
Woodford Construction and Improve
ment Company" have passed; 127, AN
act to incorporate the Bennington and
Woodford Electric Railway Company"
with amendments, will have third read
ing tomorrow morning; as will also the
Bennington Electric Railway bill.
