THAT FLAT RIVER MAIL ROUTE
Post Office Department Thinks Rock
Springs Route Would be
Much Better.

The Post Office Department has
finally been heard from, and the
officials are of the opinion that Il
route to Rock Springs would be
much better than the proposed one
to Flat River, as the following
letter received by Post Master
Doughty shows;
Posr OFFICE DEPARTMENT.
Augrst 10, 1908.
SIR Referring to the Petition for the
establishment of route from Farming.
ton to Flat Riger, Mo, you are inform
ed that the Department fails to under.
stand why, if the patrons OF your Office
are seeking better connections with ST.
Louis and points on the,Mississippi Riv-
er and Bonnie Terre Railway, they should
suggest a route to Flat River, eight or
nine miles distant, when connections
with the same railroad and the same
trains can be had at Rock Springs Sta
ton, only three and one-half miles dis
tant.
You are requested to submit a schcd-
ule for twelve times a week service be-
tween Pennington and Rock Springs
Station, that will make the desired CON
nections with mail trains at the latter
point. Very respectfully,
w. S. SHALLENBERGER
2nd Asst. i. NJ. General.
Post Master,
Pennington, Mo.
The reason why the patrons of
the local Office desire route to Flat
River is very evident. Such Il
route would not only connect with
the Bonnie Terrc railway. but it
would also connect directly with
the Southern Missouri railway.
However Post Master Doughty will
make out the schedule for the
Rock Springs route and forward
it at once. The new route may be
within one week

Rev. Reichlin Denounces Arrest
Of Brother Priest.
DOES NOT BELIEVE HIM GUILTY.
Clergyman Accused of Staying Sister
of His Host is Taken From Lorain,
O., to Elyria for Safe Keeping.
No Motive Yet Found.

Lorain. o., May 4.-The Rev. Charles
Relchlln, pastor OF St, Josephs
church in this city and brother of Aga
tina Reichlin. who was murdered last
Thursday night, made a sensational
denunciation of the authorities for the
arrest OF Rev. Ferdinand Walser, on
the charge of numbering his sister
The occasion was at the services in
that church and the place was from
the altar steps. Rev. Father Reich
lin was greatly affected over the hap
penings of the week and could hardly
speak. Several times his voice was
husky from emotion and he paused fire.
quently to overcome his feelings.
Father Reichlin's statement was as
follows:
u am sorry to see that Father Wal
ser is connected with the murder of
my sister. am sorry because know.
| am convinced before God that he is
absolutely innocent, and that no mat
ter how strong public opinion is, how
spiteful how atrocious that public
opinion may be, it can not make him
out a murderer, the slayer OF my sis
ter. The time will come when | will
give my version Of the blood hound
story, upon which the character Of
public opinion seems to be based. MY
friends, believe Father Walser in
nocent until he is proven guilty. Per
sonally, | must say that | do not know
which assault is nest brukaI. the as
sault of the murderer upon my sister
or the assault upon the reputation of
Father Walser, the assault made by
public opinion on that good priest
The scene of the murder was a point
OF interest for callers at the Reichlin
home, where the body was in view un.
TIL 1t was taken into St. Joseph's
church at o'clock, where the vespers
for the dead were sung by Rev.
Charles Reichlin and two assisting
priests. The congregation was so
great that 1t entirely filled the seats
and all the standing room.
Father Walser, who is confined in
the county jail at Elyria, was not &C.
cessible to visitors. He is treated as
any other prisoner, except that he has
the freedom of the corridor. His pre-
liminary hearing will be held tomor
row. There is no excitement at Elyria
and no sign of unlawful action.
