FOR LATULIP
Is Charged With BigaIny in
Montpelier
CAUGHT NEAR CANADA
State Alleges That George Latulip Has
Two Wives. He Skipped His Bail
Bond Last January, and Young
Senter Went After Him.

After six months Of freedom following
his arrest for bigamy, George Latulip IL
back III Washington county jail, and it il
said that hts arrest in Derbyline yester-
day morning was brought about through
q letter To woman, who is alleged to be
prospective number three ON bis list.
Georges affections are said to fit about
as lightly al does he himself. The state
claims To have evidence to prove his
marriage to two women, No. / being a
town charge in Huntington, with two
children, and No. being stilI in Mont
pelier with her child.
Latulip, alias Tanner or Thomas, was
first arrested in the case III Montpelier
On January 30, last. He was placed un-
der bail Of $500, while awaiting hear
Ing, his attorney, John Fl. Senter, being
recognized in that amount. Latulip em-
braped the opportunity to take q vaca-
tion and he has been on it ever since.
He was finally located at Hardwick, be-
inc employed by u. G, Brigham, as driv-
Ell of d milk cart That was last week
"Wednesday. Constable ". WI Rand's
services were enlisted BY Clarence Fl.
Senter who went on a still hunt for their
man.
They made the mistake, however, Of
teIephoning ahead to the Brigham house
to make sure Latulip was there. Latu-
lip was there and he was near the tele-
phone also, for when the seekers got
there he had flown. They lost track Of
him until Yesterday when young Mr..
Senter and the same officer were scout.
ing around the Canadian line in an au-
tomobie and discovered Latulip unex-
pectedly. Latulip was bundled into the
automobile and transported to Mont
pelier yesterday afternoon. The prisoner
expressed his appreciation Of the noyeity
of the tour.
1t Is hardly probable that he win be
able to furnish the bail Of $500, and will
therefore remain in jail until granted 4
hearing One Mrs. Latulip, said to be
the second, Is now in Montpelier. When
her husband took leave Of her and his
bondsman she was in the Heaton hospi-
tal dangerously III from childbirth While
IN Hagdwiek he went under the name Of
Tanner, but bio now says his right name

The respondent was up in city court
In Montpelier this morning, but hadn't
got any lawyer, so the case was put
over until tomorrow morning at nine
o'clock.
