army, hut got into debt and was obliged
to fee from Germany in consequence Of
his connection with bill Of exchange

He was next heard Of in New York,
and later in Chicago, where he was en-
deavoring Ia earn living as cabman
and porter. His relatives cleared off his
debts. secured the suppression of the
charges made against him. and brought
him home.
He then married rich widow and went
to live with her upon her estate in Gros-
senheim, Saxony. For while he APP
pearsd to bc,eonducting himself properly.
and became an active member Of the local
Conservative association. He spent freely,
but as his wife had plenty and it was
known that he was living upon her
bounty, nothing was thought of ii.
He finally got into debt again. and this
was followed by more serious charges
against him. Conservative leaders tried
to hush the charges and subscribed 20, 600

uttered
Further investigation showed that his
case wac beyond help, whereupon those

In referring to the possibilities of the
names already mentioned for presidential
nomination. he said; Il think all the
gentlemen mentioned in connection with
the nomination are remarkably well
equipped men and worthy OF the honor

Vermont Republicans, rs a rule, were not
in favor OF the nomination of Reed, MIR.
Proctor smiled, and, after some hesitation,
replied very deliberately: Il think that
the people of my state would favor New
England candidate"
"Do you think the Democrats will re-
nominate Mr.. Clevelaud?'
II shall have to refer you to the Demo-
Gratis for an answer" said Mr.. Proctor.
Personally, think not. l do not believe
that Mr. Cleveland would allow his name
to be presented TO the Democratic conven.
ton. do not think he believes in third
term"
In speaking of the business situation
Mr. Proctor took n hopeful view of the
effect of the enormous subscription for
the new bond issue. at should have a
stimulating effect" said he, showing, as
it does, the great wealth of the coun try
and the confidence of the people in the re-
sources Of the nation and the stability OF
the government. Yes, think there is q
prospect of the present congress passing q
tariff bill. But as to the bill becoming
law, there is MIR. Cleveland to consider
OF course l don't know what course he
might take.
There is not the slightest doubt but
what every Vermont man favors and
hopes for the unanimous nomination OF
Hon. Thomas B. Reed of Maine for the
Presidency.

Governor Thornton Will return to Santa

tainly prevent the carnival from taking
place on United States soil near this place,
if the principals should think Of trying
such Il thing, which is not likely. Fitz-
simmons and Mnher both state that they
are not candidates for the penitentiary.
