Says Washington Author
tiles Knew Nothing
About "lnCendiary
Circulars"
SAYS LAW HAS BEEN
STRICTLY OBSERVED
Explains Differences Be
tween McClellan'S POStalS
Last Year and This
Years Letters.

Charges made by Max Ihmsen,
political manager for William r.
Hearst to the effect that Postmas-
ter Wilcox, of New York city, al
lowed "scurrilous and incendiary
circulars attacking Mr.. Hearst TO
so through the mail upon specific
orders from Washington, were en-
phatically denied by Postoftice Of
ticials today.
Ihmsen said thousands of the cir
culars. builded upon Secretary
Roots speech at Utica, were mailed
on Saturday night and released for
transmission yesterday. He eharg-
ed that the clerks held up the cir
culars because they were objection
able, but later let them pass
through the mail because they were
so instructed by Postmaster Wilcox,
whom he alleged received specific
orders from Washington"
McCleHan's Circulars Burned.
AR Hearst's political manager pointed
out- 10 his charges that circulars sent
out by McCleuan's supporters last year
were held up and later burned because
they were objectionable. but Jhis year
the Postoflce Department instructed
Postmaster Wilcox TO let the anti
Hearst literature so through.
The POstoffice officials say the cases
are not similar because the circulars
last year were printed on postal cards
while the ones this year were mailed
in envelopes.
The statement that "the whole affair
was done under direct supervision Of
Postmaster Wncox, and with the au-
hority of Postmaster General Cortel-
fos," is characterized as "nonsensical
md without foundation"
Postoftiee Department officials said
they had no knowledge whatever Of the
circulars having been mailed. and were
not advised about them until this morn
Ing, and then through the newspapers.
Cortelyou Says Nonsense.
Postmaster General Cortelyou said:
ITS all nonsense. Nothing was known
OF this matter until after the Incident
was closed. and therefore there could
not have been any specific orders from
Washington The matter rested in the
hands OF Postmaster Wilcox, of New
York city. and he has not communicated
with the Department In regard TO it.
Mr.. Wilcox explains in the New York
papers that the reason the circulars
were allowed TO 81 through the mail was
because they were inclOsed in a stamped
envelope. ana there was no violation of
the law. The envelopes were uusealcd.
and the circulars bearing the heading
-fra
Murder" were examined by officials OF
the New York city office and found 10
contain nothing Objectionable or for
which they should he held up.
Reference has been made to Circu-
lars being heldup and afterward burned
last year. The difference between those
last year and the ones just handled by
Postmaster Wilcox is that the former
were printed on postal cards and the
latter inclOsed i'm envelopes The law
governing the two eases is different"

Party Rates to Be Same.

There Is nothing in the new railroad
law prohibiting the railroad making spe-
cial contracts with the War Depart
ment. as has been the practice in the
past, hut Il IS debatable whether the
railroads have a right. for instance, to
transport nifty soldiers cheaper than
they would fifty members of a theatrical
company under the party rate priv
iIege.
The railroads may make party rates.
according to q recent ruling Of the
commission. but il was also decreed that
they shah not give one party a cheaper
rate than they do another.
War Department officials declare they
know OF no legal reason why they may
not continue the contracts for the trans
portatlon Of troops now in force. but to
be on the safe side they have asked the
Interstate Commerce Commission for an
opinion. II IS understood that the rail-
roads desire TO have the contracts con-
tinued. but they also want tho approval
of the commission.

Personally, I do not see how any
person could be injured II the railroads
did make a cheaper party rate TO the

it would for carrying any other party.

Word comes from Manila that the
Government is already feeling the ef-
feet OF the law: that the Great North

has given notice TO the insular authorl-

ernment employees at contract prices
east of Tacoma. The company now de-
nands $3.50 for the trip from Manila TO

BURNING OF HoYALToN.
Narrative OF the Event that the Mon
ument Commentaries.

The burning OF Royalton took place Oct
Is. 17S0. 1t was the act OF the last incur
sion of an armed force from Canada 10 the
Revolutionary war consisting of party of
about 200. ali but seven Indians. Lieut.
Horton OF the British army commanded.
The guide was one Hamilton, who had
been prisoner in the hands OF the Ameri-
cans, held at Newbury and Royalton.
The party came up Lake Champlain and
followed the course Of the WInooski river.
II had been the plan to attack Newbury
on the Connecticut, in order to capture
an American officer who had killed and
robbed a British general some years be-
fore. When the party reached what Is
now Montpelier they fell in with some
hunters from Newbury, who told them
that town was expecting them and was
prepared for them. This was untrue, but
served the purpose Of averting the attack
from New bury.
Unwilling TO return without striking
blow. the party made for Royalton, going
through what Is now Barre. Orange,
Washington, Chelsea and Tunbridge.
They encamped during the Sabbath at
Tunbridge, on what is known as the
Adams Rowell farm.
Before daybreak Monday they fell upon
the scattered settlers and surprised them
in their homes. The first place visited was
that OF John Hutchinson on the farm now
occupied by Fred smith, where John
Hutchinson and his brother, Abijah, were
taken prisoners, and the buildings were
plundered. Crossing the branch. they
came to the home Of Robert Ravens, which
stood on low hill ia the meadow Of what
Is now the Lester CorWin farm. Ruins Of
this house are still to be found there. Mr.
Ravens had heard a disturbance and had
dressed and gone out, 50 was absent when
the Indians came, and escaped capture.
Mrs. Ravens was III and was left on the
bed in the doorysrd unframed. Thomas
