to Bave Paid.

Mddlebury, Sept. 27.-Furtbcr develop
mcnts in connection with the case of l.. c.
Sturtevant. who has brought suit against
General Mccullough, prove conclusively
the existence of a political conspiracy in
the interest of r. w. Clement The publ
cation of correspondence between q. NJ
Barber and Sturtevant in the Rutland Her
aid was the only thing needed to complete
the chain of evidence. but Sturtevant has
gone step further than was needed in
this direction ~ telling that he sold his
claim to "a man in Rutland" The cor
respondence shows what a friend of Nc
C'ullough says was the case that this man
Sturtevant was requested to ascertain the
situation in various towns in Addison
county as regards preferences for the gov
crnorship, and it was expected. of course.
that this would involve some expense.
When Sturtcvant scnt bill including
items purporting to represent monies paid
various individuals. payment was refused
for he was not authorize d to pay anyone
money outside Of his individual expenses
while canvassing. If the Mccullough
managers had thought best to submit 20
political blackmail. they could very easily
have settled with this man, for he sent a
telegram stating that unless he re- eived A
prompt answer he would sue tomorrow.
He was not paid and no further attention
was given him or his claim after this tele-
gram was sent
That SturteVant was not only not au-
thorized to pay money for the purposes al
legged in his bill but also did not make such
payments is shown Conclusively 10y afhda-
Wits secured to-day from all the members
of the band In WeNbridge by A. W. Sturte-
want. by Leggett, by Brown and by Others
named in Sturtcvants bill on which the
suit purportS to be based.
| 1t now transpires that this Is an old
game of SturtcVantS that he has been
pursuing for ten years and that some have
paid him money rather than have any
trouble with him. SturtcNant has told rep
utable mon in Nergcnncs and Middlchuly
that he had received money for his claim
from man in RutlLnf' and the fact that
/ the bill and correspond appear in the
/ Rutland Herald would Seem to need nc
further comment regarding the present
ownership of this claim.
| Another evidence discovered tending tc
show y political conspiracy is the fact thai
CnanGcS have been made in the bill flee
with the writ as compared with the orig
inal bill so as to increase the amount al
legged to be due ana thus take il out of the
jurisdiction Of a justice of the peace t.
try and determine and make it county
