documentary nature. James F. Towel,

them. The case will be argued today.

Lieut. Col. Henry Commits
Suicide.

Paris, Sept. 1.-Great as was the
shock to France few days ago when
Lieut.. Col. Henry was arrested after
confcssiEg that he forged one of the
most important letters against Captain
DreNfus, ii was as nothing when com
pared with the sensation caused by the
announcement last night that Henry had
cut his throat with a razor he had con-
cealed in his valise.
1t is now evident that Henry forged
the letter to paralyzc Col. Picquar's ef-
forts to expose Maj. Count Esterhazy
and get n re-hearing in the Dreyfus case
The most important event thus ta1
caused by the exposure of llenry's per
fidy is the resignation of Gen. lie Mou-
tin de Boisle1lic, chief of the general
staff of the French army.
tits insinuated now that Lieut. Col.
Henry was assisted in his suicide by
French army authorities. AT any rate
it occurred soon after the prisoner had
received a visit from staff officers.
1t is generally believed that all staff
officers will resign and Colonel Patty Du
Clam be arrested. 1t is reported thai

day.

tario and Western Railroad, was wreck
ed this morning near Fulton. The pas
senger cars were burned and three peo-
pie were killed and many more injured.
The train was an hour late and the
wreck was caused maliciously as the
switch luck had been broken and thrown
away.
The dastardly dead was doubtless
committed by tramps who threw three
switches open while the train was 60
ing 60 miles an hour.
The engine was thrown 20 feet and
blown to pieces; the tender was invert-
ed and the baggage car was telescoped.

.C.E.TAYNT0R&C0
SOLD OUT.
THE MOST IMPORTANT
TRANSFER IN BARRE
FOR YEARS.
William E. Calder is the
Purchaser.

One of the most important transfers Of
property that has taken place for many
years in Barre occurred today, when
the large firm of c. +. Tayntor a. Co.
sold out all their granite interests in
Barre to William +. Calder of this city
The business was owned by Charles
E. Tayntor and Rufus n. Tayntor, two
brothers, of Brooklyn, n. Y. and the
purchaser is partner in the well
known firm of Burley and Calder.
The papers We're signed today and
Mr.. Calder has taken possession. 1t is
understood that the business will he
conducted by Burlry a. Calder.
1t is rumored that the Tayntor Bros.
will erect in the city in the near future
large granite plant for the sole pur-
pose of getting out large work, such as
mansoleums and the like. This will be
a great advance for the granite industry
in Barre if this rumor should prove true
and it is likely that it will.
The recently purchased plant is To-
Gated at Tayntor's crossing in this city
and covers an area of about four acres
and the buildings are divided into
several departments in which the var
ious operations of cutting, polishing,
grinding and boxing are respectively
carried on.
The firm of c. L. Tayntor IL Go. has
finished numerous monuments for the
battlefield of Chickamauga. and has
erected several mausolums of the first
class and largest size at Greenwood.
BROOKLYN Woodlawn and other noted
cemeteries.
The firm has been doing business in
Barre for the past IS years.
The firm of Bulrley Il Calder was
formed in 1894, the two partners James
Burley and William Calder coming to
America about 1 years ago from Aber-
deem, Scotland and by their industry
in short time they became known as
prominent granite dealees i'll Barre.
1t is understood that the purchase was
made for a sum somcwhcres in the
vicinity of $17 100000.

The Last Review.

Camp Olympia, Sept. l.--Yestcrday
was probably the greatest day that has
ever occurred at Camp Olympia since
it was set aside as camp ground for
the Vermont Volunteer troops, unless
possibly the Sunday when the boys re-
turned from Chickamauga, should have
that honor.
Not since the days of 'G5 have the
people of Vermont had the pleasure of
witnessing last grand review of a Yer
mont regiment while on the eve of be-
ing mustered out of the United States
army.
The ranks of the regiment, as it came
up to the parade ground, and united in
formation for review, presented sad
decrease in numbers from what they
were when they boarded the train for
the South few months ago. Yester-
day there were 500 men, little more
than half the original number, but they
were as hardy looking set of men as
ever wore the blue. They were dressed
in blue shirts, brown duck trousers,
leggings and campaign hats, and looked
Us though they were in excellent condi-
ton for service, as indeed they are.
A vast difference could be seen in
their drill from what the old National
Guard was. The men stepped off in
perfect cadence, their guns were carried
at the right shoulder in systematic
manner unknown to the National
Guardsmen, and there was never ii
break in the platoon lines and each in
tcrval betw cen platoons and companies
was kept with precision.
The regiment was in command of Col.
o. ID. Clark and was headed by the
Montpelier Military band and the regi-
mental bugle corps, the latter in com
mand of buglcr Mercer who rode his
famous steed.
Company f was the banner company
and was exceeded by none in its appear
ancc. This company turned out the
largest number of men of any in the
regiment
Lieut., I. G. Carswell had the dis
tinction of being detailed to command
Company l. of Newport, owing to the
fact that all the officers of that company
were on the sick list.
When the regiment passed by the
Governor and his guests it was a no
iircablc fact that he uncovered his head
in respect TO the boys.
After the review the companies mass
ed before the reviewing stand and sew
eral speeches were made to them by
distinguished ciizcns of the state. Gov
ernor Grout spoke first, followed oy
General Howard, Senator Proctor, Con
rressman Powers, Col. f. Z. Smith
x-Gov, Woodbury., and Ex-lieut.-Gov
Mansur.
Probably the men will not be out OF
furlough before Monday as considerable
time must be spent in turning in the
ordnance, but some of them Will leave
for their homes tomorrow.
In regard to the matter OF the way the
trC OBS have been cared for, Major
.Jocelyn was heard to remark yesterday
that had they remained in the service
very short time longer they would have
received the best Of usage but that
was an impossbiity for the governmen
to arrange everything satisfactory tol
