Barre evening telegram. (Barre, Vt.) 1898-19??, 1898-12-12

London, Dec. IA wretched, mid
die aged, wild looking man was discov-
cred at II o'clock Saturday night in the
Bank of England, to which he managed
to gain admittance in some unexplained
manner. He offered as an excuse for
his presence in the bank the statement
that he wanted to cash a check and
made frantic resistance when taken
into custody. In his pockets were found
a loaded revolver, a dozen silver and
gold foreign coins and some jewelry
The man speaks English with for
eign accent and it is suspected that he
is an American. When questioned, he
refused to give his name or to say how
he entered the bank. The news of his
discovery spread rapidly through the
neighborhood. and crowd quickly sur
rounded the entrance to the bank.

Major Muhlenburg Not to blame.

Washington, Dec. 12.-The officers Of
the pay department of the army say
that Major Muhlenburg, the paymaster
who is engaged in paying off the Second
Virginia regiment of volunteers, is en-
tirely innocent of blame for any delay
in paying off the men who have chosen
to burn him in effigy as reported. The
regiment was ordered to be mustered
out on the 10th, and the pay department
was prepared to do its share, so that no
delay might follow. At the last mo-
ment, however, the accounting officers
of the United States treasury found
that nearly all of the men in the regi-
ment were more or less indebted to the
government and under the law and
regulations this Indebtedness must be
settled in full before the muster out and
the final payment. This discovery ne
cessitated the making up of new pay
rolls and delay in making payments.

General Merritt's Future,

Washington, Dec. 12.-General Wesley
Merritt recently notified the war de-
partment that he probably would sail
Saturday from Havre by one of the
French liners His return will be of
special interest at this time, owing to
his service in command of the first ex-
petition to the Philippines and later as
military governor general of the island
and also from the fact that he will be
the first of those prominently identified
with the work of the peace commission
at Paris to reach here. No decision has
been reached as to General Merritt's
future command. but he probably will
resume control of the department Of
the east, with headquarters at New
York, now temporarily held by General
Shafter

Sad Case of False ImprisOnment.

Columbus, o., Dec. 12.-Assistant
Deputy Wells has struck a peculiar
case in the penitentiary which raises
the question as to whether a man is not
doing life sentence for a murder that
never was committed. John Tongass
was reported for fighting, and during
the investigation the deputy asked him
what he was sent to prison for and
whether he was guilty Tongass re-
piled, Il was convicted for murder in
the second degree, and no person knows
better than you do that l am not guilty
of the crime for which 1 was convict
ed" why, l never saw you before in
my life" replied the deputy. THAT is
true, but you know the boy I was con-
victed of killing, and you know that he
is alive and well. I was convicted for
killing Albert Van Ripper of Kenton,
and you know that he is alive at this
time" Young Van Ripper is we'll known
to Deputy Wells, who asserts that he
is alive and working at this time in
Kenton. He recently visited in Column
bus. Tongass was convicted on circun-
stantial evidence. A boy travelling with
him disappeared, and supposedly hui
man bones were found in his campfire
afterward. He has been in prison since
1890

The Rights Of Women.

While we do not desire to reopen any
discussion regarding the subject of city
water vs. spring water, yet it has been
stated in certain circles about the city
that the young women who signed the
petition which was read at the last city
meeting showed poor policy in taking
such methods to express their views on
the question. Is there single taxpay-
er in Barre who dares to question the
good intentions of those womenp What
other way did they have to express
their opinions The good state of Yer
mont has not yet given the fair sex the
right of voting in city meeting, but in
this matter the ladies were most vitality
interested and this was the only means
they had of speaking their wish to those
who were favored with the right to cast
a ballot. Why should they be criticized
for simply giving expression to their
views' Were they not as much inter-
ested in the subject as many of the male
citizens How ridiculous to question
the sincerity of their motive! Were
not most of them prominent in promot-
ing the improvements to the city park,
and were they not responsible. by their
untiring labors in bringing about this
good work of which every loyal citizen
in Barre is proud today. On that petit
ton were the names of women whose
husbands are among our largest
taxpayers. On that petition were
the names of the most highly edu-
Gated women in our city. Whether
they endorsed the best water or
not is no concern at this time, the
TELEGRAM however defends those wo-
men from any slurs which rabid adj.
vocates Of either party may attempt to
throw. Did anyone condemn Harriet
Beecher Stowe for her ''Uncle Toms
Cabin ?' Whoever condemned Flor
ence Nightengale for her charitable
work? Where can we find a slur
against Clara Barton and her Red Cross
band9 Was not the bcautyfying of the
city park likewise public benefit ?
Were thor nha brought it shout to have
no voice in the matter, and is it possible
that any person is so narrow minded as
to deny them the privilege OF intimating
their wish in any part of ,he work ?
Whether the petition had favored city
water or spring water the right to sub
NIT it is still the same. and no sane man
should say word in disrespect towards
onr homemakers, our school teachers,
our outspoken law abiding women who
have worked so long and we'll to carry
out the purpose of which they signified
their intentions about one year ago, that
of improving the park and the streets
of Barre which certainly were in need
of helping hand.

fus affair all tend in favor of Dreyfus,
and public opinion in France Is un-
doubtedly veering to his side. The de-
cision of the court of cessation which
postpones the Picquart court martial is
damaging blow to the military party
and the attempt to discredit his evil
dence has failed. A few violent anti
revision organs shrek against the de-
cision as a judicial coup detat, but its
general reception in Paris was favora-
BILE. Great efforts are being made to
secure Picquart'sl provisional release
but the court Of cessation has no power
to order it.

good many thousands of dollars.
There is some serious talk of running

The Paris Exposition.
Very discouraging rumors are af1oat
regarding the prospects of the Paris
exposition of 1900. But little real prog
ress has been made on the huge build

position may be postponed until 1901,
though the latter course would meet
with intense opposition and inflict Sc

Faure has personally visited the site
and endavored to stimulate the work,
but with the recent strike and certain
difficulties between the municipality
and the government the prospects of its
completion in time are none of the

A Startling Episode.

The first startling episode in the Sc
cret history of the case was directly
after the fire, when Fanshawe's alleged
wife told him that she had set the
house on fire to get the insurance and
help him tide over his temporary en-
barrassment. She, too. wanted money.
infatuated with the woman, young
Fanshawe did not betray her and went
to prison to suffer for another's crime.
1t is said that another reason why he
was so quiet after the incendiary fire
and so reluctant to fight was his fear
of bigamy proceedings. 1t is claimed
that he had married Miss Heart under
the impression that the decree divorce
ing himself and wife had been granted
Later he discovered that his second
marriage took place two or three weeks
too early and before the divorce had
been granted.
