PUTER ARRESTED
THEN ESCAPES
THREATENS GOVERNMENT OFFICER
Levels Revolver at Detective Burns,
Backs Away and Gains His
Freedom in a Crowd.

BOSTON, March 26.-Stephen A.
D. Puter, wanted by the United States
government in connection with the
land frauds in Oregon, was arrested
here tonight by United States Mar
shall Burns of Washington, D. c., but
after being in custody less tnan half
an hour, Puter drew revolver and
succeeded in escaping.
Burns was detailed by the govern
ment to come here and search for
Puter. He located him, and waited
at the Fenway branch postoffice,
where 1t was learned Puter was in
the habit of calling for his mail, ad-
dressed to John H. Brownell.
Puter agreed to accompany Burns
to a private room in the postoffice.
Burns understood that Superintend-
emit Swift of the branch office, had
gone for the police, but it developed
later that Swift misunderstood Burns.
Supposing the officers were outside
the building, Burns placed Puter un-
der arrest and took him to the side
walk. After asking a question or
two about his removal to Washing
ton, the prisoner suddenly drew a
IONOlNCI duu, ICNCIlu6 az lHC oStCC-
tive, exclaimed:
"I'll kill you, Burns, i. you dare
novel"
The crowd about the two men was
quite dense, but the people fell back
rapidly at the appearance Of the re-
volver. Burns, although consider
ably older than the prisoner, jumped
at him and pushed up his hand. Pu-
ter struggled and succeeded in point
ing the muzzle Of the revolver at
Burns breast for the second time.
Again the officer closed with him,
but could not wrench the weapon
away. Puter finally got free from
Burns clasp, and gradually backed
away, with his revolver still pointed
at Burns. He turned suddenly and
darted down the street, followed by
the officer and many other persons.
The fugitive, however, escaped.

GREAT DAMAGE IN

Greenyile, Me-, Nov 10-The terrific
gales which have been causing disaster
along the Atlantic coast during the past
week have swept inland with little abate-
ment. until they reached the countless
bodies OF fresh water which cover so
large a portion OF this state. and on

Two steamers have been driven ashore.
several scows have been swamped and
much damage has been done 10 wharves.
At present the waves continued so high
that only the largest steamer on the lake
Is able to make trips. The gale on the
lake followed n snowstorm.

MEMORIAL TABLET
STOLEN BY SOME
n. !. VANOALS

New York, Nov. 1O.-Probably the mean
est and most despicable theft that has
taken place about New York occurred last
night when the bronze tablet on the mon
ument erected in Lutheran cemetery on
the outskirts OF Brooklyn TO the memory
OF the victims OF the burning OF the
steamer General Slocum was stolen.
The cost OF the tablet was about $3.50
The theft was discovered this mroning
and reported TO Charles Dersch, presi-
dent of the organization OF Gen. Slocum's =
survivors, which erected the monument
The tablet had been pried off the monu-
ment with crowbars the face OF the mon
ument being defaced in the operation. An
unsuccessful attempt was also made to
remove tablet from the back of the
monument The police OF Middle village,
where the cemetery is located, have in
formation that the theft was committed
by men who drove TO the cemetery in a
buggy from the direction OF Glendale
The stolen tablet was three feet square
and bore a representation of the burning
OF the Gen. Slocum and the story OF the
disaster.

KNOTTY LEGAL
POINTS BEFORE
SUPERIOR COURT

Two interesting points of practice were
raised in the superior court this morning
before Judge Stearns.
Counsel for defendant In the case of
Ernest Russell vs.. w c. Burt moved to
dismiss because in his print the notary
pu5lic did not write the words notary
public" but used instead the printed
words. Counsel maintained that the words
notary public after the attorneys name
were a part OF his official signature and
must be written.
Judge Tanner heard the petition OF
defendant I'm the trespass and eiectment
case of Clinton w Adams VS. Edwin T.
Banning that execution be stayed on tho
ground of improper service.
A copy of the writ was not served on
the defendant; but il is claimed that a
copy was left with some one at his home
Judge Tanner held the matter for con-
sideration.
IL has been held by the supreme court
that service on a tenants wife in a case
OF this nature Is a sufficient service; but
there Is considerable doubt as 10 whether
service on anyone else than the defend
ant or his wife holds tho defendant.
