sTRAFFoRu MAN ARRESTED.

st. Albans, Sept. 25.-The Messen-
ger gives the particulars Of the arrest
Of George E. Hyde son Of d. G. Hyde
of Strafford, who was indicted by the
grand jury for obtaining monev under
false pretenseS. He came to this
place July l4th, and registered as d.
ID. Stone and claimed to be detec-
tive. He found an old college class
mate Geo. Fl. Clafflin and had him
identify him at the bank to get a
check on a Tacoma, WASH, bank
cashed. The check was returned two
weeks later as worthless.
Mr.. Clahin Immediately reported
the matter to the authorities and an
investigation was set on foot.
Letters to the chief of police at
Washington, D. c., ELECTED the in
formation that George e. Hyde was
formerly employed in the geological
survey as clerk, at a salary of 81, 900
per annum, and was accredited to the
second district, Orange County, Vt.
He futher stated that Hyde was at
one time stationed at Tacoma, and
was dismissed from duty in Novem-
ber last for crooked transactions.
From Strafford information came
that Hydes wife and little eight,
year old son were living there with
his father, and that the wife supposed
him to be in Seattle, Wash; that
Hyde was accompanied by a young
girl Of that place, short Of stature,
fair, light haired, and good looking.
Here the chain ended for a time.
A short time after T. G. Cheney of
Morrisville received arcall from Mr..
Hyde. He, too, had been classmate
of Hyde's at the university.
He borrowed $40 of Mr.. Cheney be-
fore he left, promising to return it in
a few days. He did not do SO, but
Mr.. Clafiin happened to. be ia Norris
Vile and he and MIR. Cheney COM
pared notes, the result Of which was
the arrest Of Mr.. Hyde at Stowe, and
he was taken to Morrisville.
This brought on new developments.
Landlord Adams Of the Summit
House, Mt. Mansfield, came to town
and announced that Hyde had been
staying at his hotel for some time, un-
der the name Of G. F. Chaffee, and
that he had a bill against the prisoner
of ss5.
Nothing daunted by his arrest Hyde
commenced telegraphlng hither and
thither and communicated with "Mrs.
Chaffee. -, 1t seems that she had a
bank account with the National Bank
at White River Junction. This she
turned over to T. c. Cheney, who col
lected the deposit, a few dollars less
than his claim, and released bis hold
on Hyde.
Among the dispatches sent out was
one to Mr.. Robinson of West Rutland,
son. in-law Of Senator Redtield Proctor
who replied that check had been sent
for $50. This arrived on Saturday
morning and the Summit House land
lord accepted this for bis pay after
some hesitation.
Mr.. Clafin had been notified OF
Hydes arrest by Mr.. Cheney and
Sheriff B. f. Kelley went to Morris
Vile and brought him to St. Albans'
Hyde was seen at the jail yester-
day afternoon by Messenger report
or but refused to make statement
until the arrival of his father D. Q.
Hyde of Strafford who is his lawyer.
He said the matter could all be satis-
factorily explained and settled.
The prisoner is large man weigh
ing 225 pounds, red face, light mus
tache and thin hair apparently under
40 years of age.

SHORT INTERESTS GROW PRECARIOUS Influential Movement Continued
 in Stock Market. TENNESSEE GOAL SToCKLED The Steel Group With an Extreme Ad- vance of 41-4-Advance 4 in Su-
 gar Checked-The Bond
 Market Dull

New York, July 23.-The influential inter- ests which have taken the leadership in the stock market continued their efforts today to make rising market with the object of inviting public buying They were not dis couraged by the failure of outside interest to develop on account of last weeks ad- vance and then resumed their bullish manipulation from the opening this morn ing.
 There was much difficulty apparent in advancing prices or if any obstruction ap- peared in the shape of offerings in larger volume than could be absorbed the leaders deftly turned their attention to stocks whose upward course was easier. As the long interest has not yet attained large proportions, and as there stin remains a considerable short interest whose position grows daily more precariDus the technical conditions favored the advance. There was some accession of outside buying as well, which it is the ultimate object of the present buying to act as a reliance for ab- sorbing stocks at higher level. The ap- pearance of this buying encouraging pro- fessional bulls to redoubled efforts, and the days market as result gave an appear ance of greater activity and more strength than on any day last week. This was pret- ty true after Sugar had been checked i'm its first reactionary tendency and was found to move upwards easily on moderate buying
 Tennessee Coal led the steel stocks, with an extreme advance of A, but several of the group responded to the extent of a point or over. Metropolitan Street Railway rose 2& early in the day. but Brooklyn Transit took the leadership of the group with rise of 31s on favorable judicial de- cision in the 10-cent fare case.
