ROBBINS ARRESTED.
Charged With Sending Threatening
Letters Through Mails at Lincoln.

Lincoln. Me-, Aug. 10-Smith L. Rob-
bins, i farmer about so Years old. liy-
ING with his family about five miles out
CT this village, was arrested. yesterday
afternoon. by State Detective Timothy
L. iartnett of Portland, and Post Of
fce inspector c. l. Jennings, on the
charge of sending threatening letters
through the mails, assault and arson,
and probably other counts will be de-
vcloped.
lhcre mas been reign of terror here
lor TWO months. during which time Eli
flhkhanl, prominent citizen and bus
mess man, has been the target of Va
rlOuS prosecutions from someone nm
known.
About two months ago an attempt
was made to burn his mill. but the fire.
was discovered and extinguished before
much damage was done.
A little later two huge stones were
thrown through the windows of his
mousse. Inc next move was a warning
letter sent to the tenants of a store
building owned by Pinkham, advising
them to move out, as the place was to
ne ploWH up Win dynamite,
This letter caused much alarm. as tho
building was near several others.
Next the lumber camps owned by Mr..
P'nkham at Caribou lake, were burned
causing a loss of $500.
Since that time the unknown persecu-
tor has contented himself with posting
placards in various parts of the town
denouncing Pinkham in ridiculous Ian
guage.
Detective Hartnett has been at work
upon the case for about 10 days. 1t was
known that Robbins had some trouble
with Pinkham over a business deal
and it is said had threatened to get
even. Robbins has also been seen about
the town very late at night. Suspicion
had pointed to him for some time, but
evidence was lacking. Inspector Jen-
nings was called here, yesterday morn
ing, to assist in the arrest. Robbins
takes the matter calmly and will say
nothing. He will be arraigned before
