KIMBALL HERE.

John III. Kimball of Randolph, who was
arrested in Boston the latter part OF July
on the charge Of bigamy and adultery and
who has been confined in the Orange coun-
ty Jail at Chelsea since August T. was
brought to this city Friday evening under
Whitney OF Chelsea and f. b. Tracy of this
city and lodged in Jail. FL. X. Darling,
States attorney for Orange county, accom-
panied the party.
AS the respondent was desirous of having
bail fixed in his case and there being no
session OF court in the county in which he
was confined, The habeas corpus proceed
ings were brought in order that he might
come before the Washington county court
for that purpose.
This morning Judge Rowell fixed kim
balls bail at SIC, 900 which will undoubted.
ly be furnished either today or the first of
next week, ss Klmball Is said to be possess
ed Of considerable property.
States Attorney Darling in speaking of
the case today said his attention was called
to 1t last April by being called to Randolph
and notified that Mrs. Kimball, nee Lii
liam Stoddard had filed petition for di-
vorce from the respondent in Chittenden
county short time before. She claimed to
have married Kimball in 1893 Kimball ad.
mits his marriage with the Stoddard wom-
an and claims the two children az his own.
His trouble arises from having lived in Ram
understood he married in 1895 and by whom
he has had two children.
He now alleges that he and the Read
woman were never married but admits the
children to be his and, according to Mr.
Darling is willing to marry the Read wom-
an as soon as divorce is granted the Stod-
dard woman. When Mr.. Darling arrived
in Randolph in April Kimball left by the
same train. Kimball kept his residence in
Randolph but did business in Boston and
possesses those external evidences Of
wealth such as maintaining yacht on
Lake Champlain After some correspon-
dence Kimball was arrested in July in
Boston and his case was carried along un-

by requisition proceedings he was convey

MIR. SIBLEY'S CONDITION.

The condition Of Representative-elect A.
j. Sibley remains unchanged except that
today he has been in less pain than for sew
eral days past. His present illness is but
the continuation OF his old trouble of long
standing, which was decided on Monday by
conncil physicians to be the presence OF
gall stones in the bladder.
The physicians advise, as the only per-
ment means of relief, that Mr.. Sibley un.
dergo surgical operation. But they also
advise this operation TO be delayed until he
is stronger physically. Although at inter-
walls suffering from intense pain, Mr.. Sibley
b' ars his illness with great forttude and
even cheertulDess and keeps in daily touch
with his business interests. His many
friends are hoping for his speedy recovery
Certainly we can't afford to spare Jack now
we need him ia our business.

to-day he knew of absolutely no foun-

chased IL controlling interest in the

tiers. We have never given the Penn
sylvania any trouble on rates. and the
policy of the company could not be
more conservative If it were controlled
by that company. We have always
tried to get good rates for our traffic,
and do not carry freight at unprofitabIe
rates
I'VE have never been n disturbcr of
rates, and the control of the Norfolk
and Western by Il larger company
could not improve the traffic situation.
as might be the case if we pursued a
different policy in rate matters We
practically retired from the COMPETE
