A st. Paul Letter Carrier Saves So Cents
and May Go to Prison for Three

and May Go to Prison for Three
Years.
ST.. PAUL, Jan. 3.-Edward Pannell,
charged with using cancelled stamps,
was arrested recently by the United
States marshal at the instigation of
Postofiice Inspector James Woods of
Chicago.
1T tseems that Pannell thought his
salary was not sufficient, and eo set about
to increase his stipend at The expense of
the government. He was not as bold as
Kamp, who was recently arrested for
stealing letters, and his method is far more
modest, and good deal more secure
But the wrongdoer will sooner or later
be found out, and thus it was with Pan
nell, it SCENE. Last Saturday he was
charged with forwarding package ad-
dressed to Seattle. The postage
amounted to 50 cents, and it was here
that the opportunity presented itself.
Instead of purchasing the stamps at the
stamp window it is claimed by Inspector
Woods that he quietly pocketed the SO
cents and made use of four Cancelled 10
cent stamps. In doing this he laid him
self open to punishment of crime which
is punishable by from one to three years
in the state prison at hard labor. Not
to be detected in the fraud il
is said he took the package down stairs
which he had no right or business to do
and there placed it in the mail pouch
westward bound. Before he did this, il
!. is said, he recancelled the stamp himself

in the postoffice.

COUNT JAMES MARSHALL.
He Was Arrested For Defrauding His
Partner With the Help of "a
Pretty Cashier.


Pretty Cashier.
New YORK, Jan. 3-James Marshall,
who styles himself count of the holy
Roman empire, is prisoner in the Hud-
son county Jail, jersey City, accused of
defrauding Francis Jean Guittienne, a
wealthy Brookl Ignite, out of $4,000 in
cash through the medium of pretty
but not overscrupulous cashier. Mar
shall formerly conducted restaurant in
Fulton street, Brooklyn. Gulttienne
was one of his customers and three years
ago made the acquaintance Of the cash
ier. She captivated him. and he was in
the habit of leaving s. bills on her desk
1t was not long before Marshall con-
vinced his customer that restaurant
was bonanza. Arrangements were
quickly made for joint partnership and
a cafe selected on Broadway, New York,
for the new firm was elegantly fitted up
and christened the "Angel.' a singularly
appropriate name. said Mr.. Guittienne,
with an ardent look at the fair cashier
Business seemed good, and Mr.. Guitti-
enne was happy. One fine day, however,
the pretty cashier was missing.
"Where's she gomez" he gasped.
Married." his partner replied, and
Mr.. Gutienne felt lump in his throat,
and walked off without saying another
word.
He did not return to the cafe for few
days, and when he did 90 he found to his
amazement that someone else was in
possession of the place. In response to
his anxious questions he was quickly
informed that an execution had been
levied on the stock and fittings on ac-
count of the rent and other charges. Mr..
Guittienne also found that his partner
had contscated all the receipts, and
when paying out became necessary took
French leave.
Mr.. Guittienne realized that he had
been duped and. procuring the aid of a
private detective, started out to hunt up
Marshall, whom they finally located in
Taylor's hotel, Jersey City. A few days
ago Mr.. Guttienne and the detective
visited the hotel and asked for Mr.
Marshall They were shown up to Room
}6, and as the door was partly open, sit
ting at a table in the room they saw
Marshall and the pretty cashier enjoying
roast chicken and bottle of wine.
While the detective remained on guart
over the couple Mr.. Guittienne went be
fore a justice of the peace, who issued ;
warrant for Marshalls arrest for fraud
A few minutes later Marshall was in tn,
county jail. If the count should escap
he will be rearrested on another charge
John Smith, to whose daughter he be
came engaged, and of whom Marshal
borrowed $4,000 on false pretenses, want
him. 1t transpires that the youn
woman, who sees HIM every day in jai
the pretty cashier, was some years ag'
the wife of young son Of a prominen
Wall street broker. He heard som
stories about her and hunted up he
; record in Germany, where she was borl
. He found that, in company with tn
count, similar little schemes had bee
worked there, which made the fathe
land an undesirable place OF residence.
