Mrs. Mofat Indicted by the
Grand Jury.
MEARS HAS TOLD STORY
Young Man Sentenced to Prison for the Crime
Nov duplicates Mrs. AOhat
in the Case.

Sheriff Wilson went to Sandgate
Monday morning and arrested Mrs
Alice Moffatt wife of Philander MofT-
att, who was indicted at the recent
session of the grand jury for at
tempting to kill her husband by put
ing poison in whiskey Of which he
drank. Mrs Moffatt, who claims to
be innocent Of the charge, was brought
to the county jail here
Tuesday afternoon she was brought
before Judge Mattison who held her
in $1,000 bail for her appearance be-
fore the court in December.
II will be remembered that at the
last December term Of the court Joseph
Mears was sentenced to serve not less
than twelve or more than fifteen years
in the state prison for putting poison
in the whiskey which Philander MotT-
att drank. AT the time of his trial
Mears refused to testify, and it was
the general opinion that his refusa
was from desire to shield Mrs
Moffatt with whom, it was claimed, he
had been quite intimate.
After his conviction Mears made
partial confession to his counsel, and
others. Some other important tes.
timony was found. so that the case
came before the grand jury. He was
brought from Windsor to testify, his
evidence being the most important.
In his confession Mears says that at
the suggestion of Mrs Moffatt he went
to shushan, taking two bottles to have
filed with whiskey. These were exact,
ly alike. He also secured the poison.
On his return home he gave one of the
bottles and the poison to Mrs Moffatt
who was then stopping with the Con-
key family.
After his arrival home he and Mof-
fatt had a drink from his bottle, and
he put the rest in a cupboard. The
next day he met Mrs ,Mofiatt, told
her about what quantity was gone
from his bottle. She emptied hers to
correspond, went to the house, chang
ed the bottles and afterward told him
what she had done. She wanted to
get rid of the old man and get Mears
instead.
When Mrs Moffatt heard that Mears
had been brought before the grand
jury she left the state and did not
return until Sunday. She had heard
nothing and thought she was safe.

General Manager Geo. r. Jarvis
Made Vice. President.
DUE TO WEBB'S HEALTH
DR.. Webb Wished to be Relieved from Active
DUTY for Time Road Passes
rs Dividend.

The semi-aunVal meeting Of the Rut-
land Railroad Co.'S directors was held
in Rutland Saturday morning Eleven
of the thirteen directors were present.
General Manager George r, Jarvis
was elected president to serve
during the absence of Dr. w. Seward
Webb, the president, who is abroad
Judge H. H. Powers, of Morrisville,
a director of the road, said that
rumors about theroad changing hands
and about a receivership are entirely
without foundation. Such reports may
be most emnhatically denied, said he.
Percival w. Clement, former presi-
dent of che railroad and now a director
in the company, when asked if there
was any foundation for the rumor of
a receivership or of the roads pass
ing into the hands of the Vanderbits,
said;
''There is nothing to the receivership
stories whatever, nor do | understand
that there is anything to the idea that
the road is to pass into the hands of
anybody. The directors had meeting
this morning and considered the ques-
tion Of expenses and income They
concluded that it was the wise thing
not to declare any dividend in July
The directors also had letter from
Doctor Webb now in London, saying
that his health is not very good and
asking to be relieved from the duties
of president The board accordingly
made Mr. Jarvis, now the general
manager vice-president as we'll and
gave him authority to transact during
Doctor Webb's absence such executive
functions as would devolve upon the
president under the circumstances.
