he IS DEAD
". D. Poole Passed Away
This Morning
STILL UNCONSCIOUS
Thought To Have Committed
Suicide

w. D. Poole died this morning at
6.45 o'clock without recovering con-
sciousness. The three physicians,
Drs. Deziel, Reid and Chandler, were
In attendance all the time up to the
hour Of his death. Their statement
as to the cause Of death will be
''death due to an overdose Of mar.
cotic."
1t is generally conceded that this
overdose was probably taken with a
suicidal intent. Mr.. Poole has been
mentally unsound for some time and
it is thought the act was committed
while In this state.
For long time he has been trou-
bled with nervousness. so that he could
not sleep nights, or rest very we'll.
Recently his brother came here and
took him over to North Conway, N.
Y, to recuperate. He returned last
week apparently benefited by the
change, but was troubled with his old
complaint, nervousness and sleepless'
ness. He is said to have complained
to friend OF this tronble and said
that II be had pistol he would blow
his brains out.
The narcotic evidently was NOR.
phine as an empty bottle was found
in his room. The deed was evidently
committed early yesterday morning.
Mr.. Poole was known to be up at
IL so O'Clock Wednesday night and
at 1920 his light was out so that as
bis light was still burning when the
doostof his room was forced yesterday
morning 1t must have been turned on
later.
William D, Poole was about 43
years old and was born in Northum'
berland, N. H. He was formerly in
the boot and shoe business In Lyndon
vile. He came to Barre about five
years ago and formed partnership
with E. A. Drown under the name OF
E. A. Drown & Co., buying out the
drug store Of c. R. Denning.
Las. fall he disposed Of his interest
to Mr.. Drown and went into the shoe
business with w. J. Mclean under
the name OF Poole & Mclean. Re-
Gently this firm was dissolved and Mr..
Poole became interested in the firm OF
Badger, Mclean & Co. He was a
man of considerable means and was
| having a fine house built for him.
Report says that he was engaged to be
married this spring.
He is survived by several brothers,
one OF whom, Charles is on the way
from North Conway, N. H., to thi!
city. Mr.. Poole was Red Man ant
belonged to the tribe in Lyndonville
Until his brother gets here this after
noon no arrangements will be mad'
for his funeral.

CARELESSNESS
Was The Cause Of Death
Of
OLIVE MARTIN
And A|se In Case Of John
Levenda|e
Especial to Telegram.)

Montpelier, Mar. 2l.- The state
railroad commissioners today filed
their report in the cases Of Olive Mar.
tin and John Levendale who were
killed In Barre sometime ago, the for
mer as the result Of an electric car &C.
cident and the latter by being run
over by q train on the NJ. & W., at
the Barre station.
In the case OF Olive Martin they
find the following report:-"From
the evidence given the commission
finds that the rate Of speed Of the car
was not excessive. The occupants of
the sleigh could have seen the car
and averted the danger. The com.
mission is Of the opinion that
the accident was the result Of careless.
ness on the part OF the persons in
the sleigh. They knew that the car
was.to pass along the line. 1t is an
act Of negligence to drive from Ell
more St., directly upon the car track
without looking for the car"
In the case Of John Levendale the
commission reports: " The accident
was not due to negligence Of duty on
the part Of the persons in charge Of
the train. The boy was not pas.
senger and had no business on the
train. There is no evidence of bis
movements prior to the time he was
seen under the car.

TROOPS DESERTED

Hong Kong, March 2l. = Serious
alarm here is caused by the report
that all the imperial troops under i'm
perial Su, numbering 10000 have de-
serted to the rebels. Should the re.
port prove true it would mean that
the insurrectionists are now capable
of defeating any imperial force it is
possible to raise. Many anticipate a
revolt similar to the ai.Ping rebel
lion. Continued droughts have rails
ed the fears OF famine which would
cause great numbers of farmers tc

FOR VERMONT
Appropriation By Congress
Will Sc
ABOUT $4,000
For Public Buildings At Bur.
|ington And Newport

Washington, March 2l.-Vermont
will get about 800, 900 on the omnibus
public building bill, as reported to
the House of Representatives. This
is the program arranged in the com.
mittee on public buildings and
grounds. The bill has not even been
framed yet, but it has been blocked
out in the rough and the amounts for
each State have been pretty we'll
agreed upon.
Only two projects in the Green
Mountain State will be recognized on
the forthcoming measure. One OF
these will be at Burlington, where
the committee plans to allow 5000,
in place Of 5000, 900 asked for by Con-
gresham Foster. 1t is thought that
Burlington may need q little more
than this, but there is a disposition to
allow an amendment to the omnibus
bill In the Senate.
Tie other Vermont project to be
looked after is the increase for the
cost Of the public building at New.
port. Representative Haskins re.
Gently introduced a bill to increase
the cost Of the public building
there s25. 900, but the estimates re.
ceived by the treasury department in.
dicate that an appropriation Of $751;
900 will do.
