TWO HORSES PERISH.
Incendiary Origin Suspected in Disas-
trous Fire Near Burlington.

Burlington, Jan. 2S.-A disastrous
fire destroyed a barn on the old Mel
chior farm on the Agency road. The
property is owned by Will Carson. Ihe
origin of the fire is a mystery and be-
fore il was discovered the entire
structure was in flames. Two valuable
horses which We're stabbed in 1t, per-
ished. In addition to the loss of the
barn and horses, about 800 bushels OF
oats, the harness and farm machinery,
We're consumed.
About three weeks ago, similar
fire was discovered in this same barn,
but it was found in time to prevent
serious damage. 1t is thought that
probably some incendiary agency
might have been at work.
There were two other fires in the
country last evening, one to the south
and the other to the north Of the city.
The three con1agrations, lighted up
the heavens for several hours.

FRENCH COUPLE ARRESTED
ON SERIOUS ACCUSATION
Man and Woman Are Charged with
Importing and Horribly Mistreat-
ing Girls in Chicago and
Elsewhere

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 15.-Henry
Lair and Lucine DarYaille, a French
woman who passed as LARS wife, were
arrested in this city today accused of
importing and harboring alien women
in Chicago. They were arraigned i'm
mediately before United States Com
missioner Heacock, who fixed their bail
at $4,000 each, the greatest sum ever
demanded in a similar case in the west.
This was done at the request of Fed
eral Attorney Sims of Chicago, who de-
sired bail placed at almost prohibitive
figure to insure their return to that
city, where they are alleged to have
been at the head of one of the largest
combinations of white slave" dealers
in the United States.
The arrests were made through the
efforts of E. J. Brennan, a secret SER
vice agent of the department of JUS
tice, who came from the east for the
purpose and who has worked in con-
junction with Detective w. ]. Burns
without consulting the local police.
The couple were found on Commercial
street. The particular charge on which
they are held is that of importing and
harboring in Chicago an alien woman
who has told the federal officials a
story of horrible cruelty alleged to have
been suffered while detained against
her will by them after they had
brought her from France.

SENATOR CARTER SPEAKS IN
FAVOR OF POSTAL SAVINGS

WASHINGTON, Dec Ex-senator
Carter spoke today in support of the
postal savings bank bill. After re-
ferring to the various Endorsements by
political conventions and other organi-
cations of the people of the postal saw
ings banks, Mr.. Carter said that while
there were only 1852 savings banks,
there We're more than $1,000 post offices,
40 900 of which were money order offices
He declared postal savings banks
were in operation in practically all CIV
ilized countries of the world except the
United States.
He purposed, he said, to offer amend
ments to the reducing from $1,000 to $500
the amount any person might deposit
in postal banks with interest and from
5000 to $100 the amount that might be
deposited in any one month, and also
to strike out the provision allowing any
person to deposit money as trustee.
These amendments, he said, would re-
move three objections that have been
made to the bill.

FINDS WOMAN GUILTY OF
DYNAMITING JUDGES HOME
Jury in Oakland Returns Verdict in
Ten Minutes Against Mrs. Isabella
Martin-Sentence Will Be
Pronounced Saturday

OAKLAND, Dec. 15.-Mrs. Isabella
J. Martin was convicted at 2:35 this
afternoon of dynamiting the home of
Judge Frank b. Ogden of the superior
court of Alameda county on the night
OF March 10, 1907
On that evening a bomb was explOd-
ed on the front porch of the judges
residence.
The jury was out just ten minutes.
Judge Wells set 10 o'clock next Satur-
day morning as the hour for sentence.
1t was nearly a year after the ex-
plosion at the ogden home that 1t be-
came known who set off the bomb.
"Baby John" who was an adopted
son of Mrs. Martin, confessed to a dep
uty sheriff at WeaYerVille that he set
the bomb off at the instigation of his
foster mother, who, he said, sought re-
venge upon Judge Ogden for sustain
ing the demurrer of the Westchester
Insurance company in the suit she had
brought against it to recover insurance
for houses she is said to have set on
fire herself.
Mrs. Martin then was in custody on
a charge of arson in Trinity county.
When she learned that Baby John"
had told the authorities of the dyna-
hitting, Mrs. Martin claimed he had
committed perjury. She also declared
him to be the son of the Princess Chi
may, but the assertion was subsequent
ly eonelusively disproved.
"Baby john" who, as nearly as can
be learned, was taken from a New
York founding asylum when he was
an infant, by Mrs. Martin, also has
confessed TO number of crimes 10
the commission of which he asserts he
was driven by the woman-among
them arson, grand larceny and at
tempted wholesale murder. His cor
fession was sensational story OF
crime
