BABY IS THROWN
FROM PULMANN GAR
Railroad Men Find Infant Dead
Along Tracks at Terra
Alta.

CUMBERLAND, Nov. 9.-The au-
thorities are investigating the death,
of child who was evidently thrown
from a Pullman car some time dur
ing Thursday night. Wrapped in a
bed sheet with shoestring tied
tightly about its neck the little boy
was picked up along the tracks by
railroad men at Terra Alta, so
miles west of here. Apparently the
babe was only about two weeks old.
1t has not been determined defin-
itely whether the infant was dead
before it was thrown from the car
or the fall and subsequent exposure
caused death.

the possession of the father and they
are living happily here, where all
wish for them a, most successful and
happy residence after the unfortu-

lives that have resulted from the
unnatural conduct of the wife and

To Give Bond.

An alleged postoffice burglar is in
jail here. He is a stranger but
gives his name as Charles Moller.
He is ordinarily dressed and has the
appearance of tramp. 1t is believed
he Is one of the worst crooks in the
counry and the postoffice dficials
congratulate themselves that they
have made an important capture.
MoIIer was brought here from
Fairmont Saturday morning by
PostofFice Inspector Edward I. Allen,
who took him before United States
Commissioners Thomas s. Spates on
the charge OF burglarizing the post
office at Opekiska the night of Mo-
vember 5. Accompanying Mr.. Allen
as witnesses were Cornelius Heston,
postmaster at Opekiska; c. w
Walker, assistant chief of police Of
Fairmont, w. G. Gould, a Fairmont
policeman; w. H. Brand. assistant
postmaster at Fafrmont: and Ed
ward G. Grapes. clerk at Murphy's
restaurant at Fairmont This array
of witnesses evidently convinced
MolIer that it would be best not to

W wed examination. Col. Spates
fixed his bond at $4,000 to appear ut
the federal court in Parkersburg
the second Tuesday in January for
trial, and in default committed him
to jail.
The burglay at opekiska was ac-
complished by taking a panel out of

breaking open a drawer of a roll top
desk. From the drawer were taken
stamps in value about $50, a post
masters book and about Sc in mon
ey. Two and half pairs of shoes

The arrest of Moller was made at
Fairmont the following night by

there had been apprised of the burg
larry and, were on the lookout.
Moller's act of offering stamps val
ued at $1.3s to Edward C. Grapes,
clerk at Murphy's restaurant, for
but SO cents. soon resulted in the
strangers arrest.
Searching MIN at the police sta
tion the officers found on his person
$2O.32 in stamps and the postmas-
ter's book, which latter Postmaster
Heston identified as his. Mr.. Hes

public, although he stated in interviews
that he would probably do so. IT Is not
strange that the Governor would shrink
from the public criticism that would
undoubtedly be directed against him,
if those letters were made public. The
Governor does not, fancy, relish any
more public criticism just at present"
