LITTLE EVIDENCE
Against Father Walser for Miss
ReiChIin's Murder.
Mayor Of Lorain Says There's Not
Enough to Hold Him.
Unlimited Money and Attorneys to De-
fend the Priest.

Lorain. Ohio, May Aft Father
Walser was to have his preliminary
hearing right here in my Office now
and 1 had to use the evidence l now
possess against the man, in my judg-
ment | think | should let him co. was
the remark made by Mayor King, to-
day, when asked what he thought of
Father Walser's guilt. Coroner French,
Chief Braman and Prosecutor Stroup
held like view. Prosecuting Attorney
Stroup stated, today that in his opin-
ion the evidence at hand was not suffi-
cient to warrant holding Father Wal
ser to appear before the grand jury
However" said he, 1.-The officers are
working upon the case along a line
of which they are very secret at this
time and developments may result be-
fore the inquest, tomorrow"
Mr.. Stroup had some criticism to Offer
to the relatives of the murdered girl
for their criticism of the authorities.
1T is we'll known" said he, that
the law holds a county liable for any
harm that may come to person at the
hands of a mob, hence our action in
placing Father Walser under arrest
was perfectly justifiable, even if his
guilt cannot be proven"
The inquest over the remains of Miss
Reichlin will be held, tomorrow morn
ing, and it is expected the hearing to
be given Father Walser will follow the
inquest. Father Walser will be a wit
ness at the inquest.
Father Horst of Vermillion, who as
sisted in the requiem mass at Miss
Reichlin's funeral, made the statement
today. that five attorneys had volun-
teered their services to defend Father
Walser and an unlimited sum of money
will be forthcoming to help him in the
event that his case goes to trial

SPARKS FROM MAINE WIRES.

A seizure of liquor was made by Sheriff
Gilman and his deputy, Joseph A. Stevens
of Lincoln. in that town, Saturday even
ing. Complaints had reached the sheriff
that. William l.. Clapp. who keeps a board
ling house near the Maine Central station
there, had been selling liquor freely and
to minors. 1t is said that he had been
asked by the people of the town to quit
selling to boys and that he had laughed
in their faces. The matter was left with
the sheriff and with the above result AL
though the house is but few steps from
the station, Clapp managed to get his door
locked before the sheriff and his deputy
could get there. Sheriff Gilman told him
that If the door was not opened at once
he would make short work of it and go in.
The door was then unlocked and the Off
GERS entered. An effort had been made to
conceal the goods but it was not success
full. A good haul of bottled goods was
made and libelled by the sheriff.
The British schooner Delta NJ. which
drifted down on the water pipe last
Saturday noon, was fined by Collector
MOulton 500. for violation of the har-
Dor regulations which are that any
lished limits is subject to a fine of 800
for such violation. Vessels passing
through that part of the Kennebec
river within which anchorage is pro-
hibited, must be under command of
enther sail or steam or be in tow. Drop
ping with the current is not permitted
and is subject to the same penalty
anchoring therein. This shows that
all precautions are being taken to pro-
tect the city's water supply from pos
sible damage by vessels.-Bath Times.

COURAGE FAILED.
John Cochran Of Caribou Sent
Bullet Through Brain
Rather Than Face Charge Of Incen-
diarism in Court, Monday.
Out on Bail-Had Been Drinking-Set
tied the Case.

Caribou, Me-, May 4.-(SpeciaD.-
John Cochran, a well-to-do farmer of
Caribou, committed suicide, this morn
ing, by firing bullet from a 32-cali-
bre revolver through his head. Death
was instantaneous. Cochran was in
dicted at the recent session of the grand
jury at Houlton for arson. His trial
was to have taken place, today. The
witnesses for the government and for
the defence, numbering nearly so per-
sons, We're at the station of the Ban
gor & ArooStook Railroad in Caribou
to take the morning train for Houlton.
AS Cochran did not appear at the time
the train left and as numerous stories
were aflOat that he had attempted to
leave the country during the night
only the witnesses for the government.
some 25 in number, went to Houton.
Cochran's witnesses did not take the
train.
1t was subsequently learned that he
had committed suicide as stated.
Cochran was under $4,000 bonds for his
appearance at court, today, and his
bondsmen, J. o. Bubor and Henry
Cochran, had been endeavoring, for the
past week, to get a mortgage from John
to secure them. The matter was
brought to a climax, early Sunday
evening. when the bondsmen went to
Cochran's house to have him go to the
lawyers office to complete this bust
| ness. Cochran agreed to go with them.
but at the last moment made an excuse
to go back into the house. Escaping
from the house by the back door he dis
appeared in the woods. The bondsmen
became alarmed at his actions, pro-
ceeded to the village, where they Sc
cured the services of Deputy Sheriff
Small and Constables ST. Pierre and
Jordan and began to scour the country
in search of him.
He was found on the New Sharon
road about $50 o'clock and was cap
tured. He got away and again disap-
peared. At 1 o'clock, this morning, he
was found at the house of his brother
Albert Cochran, about three miles from
Caribou village. He refused to go with
the bondsmen or the officers, displayed
a revolver and threatened to shoot any
one who attempted to lay hands upon
him. He remained at his brothers I'M
til about 3 o'clock, compelling the Of
ficers at the point of his revolver to
stand aside and allow him to pass out
of the house. He was next seen at 5
o'clock on the Caribou bridge going in
the direction of his own home. He
must have gone straight there. When
he arrived, there was no one in the
house, his family having stayed at the
home of the oldest son Charles, over
night. He went up stairs, took off his
coat and vest, placed the revolver be-
hind his right ear and fired. His body
was found on the floor in the chamber
by his son, Charles, shortly after 6
o'clock. Life was extinct.
Cochran was about so years of age,
and leaves widow and four children.
He has served one term in States
prison, and was arrested, Jan. %, 1903,
on complaint of State Insurance Com
missioner Carr, charged with burning
the barn of a neighbor last November.
