HowGATE GOES FREE DECEMBER 20
Former Signal Corps officer Will
Come Here to Live.

A dispatch from Albany, N. Y, yesterday
says:
Henry W. Howgate, who has been con-
fined in the Albany county penitentiary
since November %, 1895, serving term for
forgery, will leave the institution a free
man on Saturday, December %. He will go
Immediately to Washington, where he will
live with his daughter.
Howgate is now an old man, past the
three-score-and-ten mile-post, and not a
vestige of his appearance is there to remind
one of the smart. active and exceedingly
cunning man who twenty years ago de-
frauded the United States out of several
large sums of money. At the time the
crime was committed he was connected
with the weather bureau in Washington.
Howgate was sentenced for eight years,
but good behavior on his part reduced 1t to
five.
