PRIEST rs UNFROCKED
CONFESSION MAY BE SECURED
FROM HIM AFTER ALL.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, August S.-Father Levont
Martoogessian. the Armenian priest now in
the Tombs charged with having sent black
mailing threats to rich Armenian merchants,
and who is suspected of knowing much Of
the plans for the killing Of Hovhannes s.
Tavshanjian, has been unfrocked
1t is feared by Mr.. Manley and others
that Father Martoogessian has frightened
little Bedros Hampartzoomian, the actual
murderer. Certain it is that the little muir
derer has changed, while a week ago he
appeared willing to tell a lot he is now
most stubborn and even refuses to look at
persons brought in to see him. He won't
say a word.
Priest May Confess.
One thing that is considered to be not Of
great improbability Is clean breast of a
lot Of things by no other person than
Father Martoogessian himself. The priest,
it can be said on good authority, has about
made up his mind that he was hoodwinked.
The man that the priest Is bitter toward Is
Arzueuian. the real head OF the crooked
Hunchakist organization. This Arzueuian
hasn't done stroke of work In years. poses
az a consumptive and travels much. He
spends his winters in California and his
summers in Switzerland. On the occasion
of his last trip abroad he took two good
looking American girls with him. This
Arzueuian was living in Bath Beach few
weeks ago, and many Armenians are of
the belief that he is still there.
The district attorneys Office, or the CEN
trail Office police. have done nothing to bring
him here. 1t was learned today that the
defense Of Father Martoogessian for the
charge against him will be that he col
lected the money in good faith to be for
warded for patriotic and charitable pur-
poses by Arzueuan. The latter was known
to have lived high in this city on the occa-
sion Of many trips here, and when here put
up at high-priced hoted uptown.
Bishop Sarjian will deliver a memorial
service in honor Of Tavshanjian in the
morning, and will say some things about
Armenians that he has refrained from mem
ttoning heretofore.

AsSAssIN'S NERVE IS FAILING

NEW YORK, August Bit by bit the
police and the district attorneys Office
are gathering together the threads of
what they believe to be one of the most
gigantic conspiracies ever discovered in
New York, and which was brought to
ago of Hovannes s. Tavshaniian, the
wealthy Armenian rug importer, who
was shot down in Union Square by an
Armenian named Harmpartzoomian or
Khavadorian.
Today 1t was declared that the assassin,
through his attorney, made overtures to
District Attorney Jerome which may lead
to a full confession on his part. Mr..
Jerome replied that he could promise
nothing in the way of clemency, but
urged the prisoner to tell of the plot and
those who are responsible for IT, The
assassin believed that in killing Tav-
shanjian he was doing patriotic act.
but as he gradually becomes convinced
that he was only the tool of a band of
blackmailers it Is believed he will d.
vulge the entire plan as well as the
names of its instigators.
Confession Expected.
Garabed Boghoosian of Lynn, Mass, a
cousin Of the assassin. came to New York
today and spent several hours In confer
ence with Assistant District Attorney
Manley. Later he went to the Tombs and
talked for long time with his cousin in
an attempt to induce him to make a full
statement. He also saw Father Martoo-
gessian. whom the police believe was at
the head of the blackmailing band. and
positively identified him as the man he
mad seen In conference with his cousin
five or six times in Massachusetts, cities.
Mr.. Booghoosian added another name to
the two by which his cousin had been
known to the police. saying that his real
name was Bedros Hogopian.

COLONIAL BEACH. Va, August 8, 1907.
While there have been more people at this
delightful resort this summer than in the
same period in any previous year, and
things have been lively enough and suf-
fciently imbued with the vacation spirit to
warrant the nickname of "Washingtons
Atlantic City" the height of the season Is
not yet reached. Every day the midsum-
mer population is increasing and larger
crowds coming down on the one-day
excursions. August bids fair to gladden.
the hearts of the promoters OF the river
town as well the hearts of the seekers
after rest and recreation who flock this
way.
The advantages Of frst-class and reason
able accommodations for visitors and OF
the excellent saltwater bathing. grabbing,
fishing and boating are being realized more
than ever this year. It seems. and in fact
they are greater than ever before owing to
improvements Of all kinds that have been
made. Persons who have not been here
for a couple OF years would scarcely know
the place, so much has 1t changed for the
better.
There are many reasons which justify the
opinion that there is a great future before
Colonial Beach as a summer resort and
watering place. Its ideal location, fine
beach and the ease with which II Is reached
from the Capital city; the improvements of
all sorts made by the officials of the town
and by Capt. E. 8. Randall. president of the
washington and Potomac Steamboat Com
pany. and the increased interest manifested
In the resort by people of the District of
Columbia and the surrounding country all
strengthen the opinion.
Part Of Colonial Plantation.
Colonial Beach Is in Westmoreland coun-
ty, one OF the most interesting portions Of
the historic old state of Virginia 1t was
originally part of one of the colonial plan
tations and was known for many years
prior to the civil war as Classic Shore. The
site of the town was purchased about TWEEN
ty-fve years ago by the Colonial Beach
Improvement Company. made up of Wash
ington people. and excursions were started
from the city. Among the steamers which
used to make the trip were the City of
Richmond the Jane Moseley. the George
Leary the Excelsior the John Sylvester
and T. v. Arrowsmith.
The interest of theimprovement company
was purchased in 1901 by Capt. E. s. Ran
dali OF Maryland. Judge c. E Nichol of
Virginia and r. o. Hoffman Of Washing
ton Two years later Capt. Randall bought
out Messrs Nichol and Hoffman and later
transferred the property and improvements
to the Washington and Potomac Steamboat
Company, of which he became president
and general manager.
The company owns the passenger and

ing In town.
A Catholic chapel was erected In 1905 and
services are held there every Sunday. There
is also a union church. where persons Of
other denominations worship, and an Epis-
copal chapel will be erected before the sea-
son Of 1908 opens. II present plans do not
miscarry.
Another feature Of Colonial Beach IL that
1t has all the pleasures Of q watering place
and Of rural retreat as well. There are
fine drives in the country back Of the Beach
to Wakefield, the birthplace Of washington.
and other interesting and picturesque spots.
Wakefield can also be reached conveniently
in small boats, being only five miles dis
tant.
Ideal Place for Campers.
The Beach has always been regarded as
an ideal place for campers. and this year
Is no exception to the rule There Is
large camp colony at the lower end Of the
town, near the entrance to Munroe bay.
and another at the other end. Many Of the
campers are wearing picturesque costumes.
