REUNITED AFTER 40 YEARS.
Wilmington Wife Seeks Pension But
Finds Husband Instead.

Wilmington. Del. Feb. 27.-Through
her application for a widows pension.
Mrs. Ward. OF this city, located her
husband. whom She had not seen since
the close of the Civil War, and finding
where he was. went to Pittsburg after
him and brought him to this city. and
the people are again reunited after for
ty years, during which time each
thought the other dead
1t appears that Mrs. Ward in going
to Washington to secure q pension,
found that a man by the same name as
her husband was also seeking one, and
learning the address in Pittsburg she
went there to make an investigation
and found that the man was her long
lost husband. Following the close of
the war the man left in search of work
and communication between the pair
miscarried and each was under the
erroneous belief that the other was
dead.

nastcd schooner George K. Vrecland
has been given up for lost. it being
considered that she has about one
chance cut of Il hundred to ever show

The Nreeland sailed from the James
River TOR New York almost four weeks
ago, and if she has been ever spoken
since that time that fact has not been
reported.
Shortly after the vessel went to sea
one of the gales which have been SO
numerous this winter swept the coast,
and it is more than likely finished the
career of the Vreeland. as it did several
other vessels. The schooner was load
ed with crOSs-ties.
; Th., crew of the vessel was composed
of about six men, with Capt. Forrest

100. 900 excess over 900 marked with
stencil were sample copies which were
sent out as regulars contrary to the reg
ulations of the department.
The witness testified to figures of new
subscriptions for Sawyer's Magazine Civ
en- him nv Superintendent Townsend for
the months from March to the middle of
October During that time there had
b4en received 1872 100 new subscriptions.
In his examination OF tie stencils for
the. Gem" and Nation" and Sawyers
the expiration marks showed that more
than Is per cent. of the names carried
on the Gem list had expired in 1904 or
previously; and that less than / per cent.
were current subscriptions; that more
than 80 per cent of the subscriptions Of
the Nation had expired in 1901 or pre-
vionsly. and more than 30 per cent. had
expired The lists of Sawyer's did not
Indicate that any of Sawyers subscrip-
tions had expired. All these compila-
tions were made from the publishers
records.
He saw Mr.. Terry the last of January
of thie~year. Mr.. Townsend was present
and Mr.. Townsend told him that the
subscriptions to Sawyer's had been de-
creased to 1000 by elimination Of all
the expired subscriptions, including those
of the Gem and the Nation.
The witness was not cross-eXamined at
length. Mr.. Philbrook asked the witness
if there was anything in the statutes or
postal regulations forbidding publishers
from carrying persons on the list who
owed for subscriptions.
'rb., witness rcDIit1 that
nothing in the statutes. bu. there was an
tons which allowed the
Mr.. Philbrook quickly interrupted: I'VE
don't want interpretations. The racstior
is, is there anything in the statutes on
the regulations which forbds the carry
ing of persons ON the mailing lists who
have net paid their subscriptions?'
The witness replied that there was no
provision in the regulations which for
babe it. On the contrary there WAS n
provision permitted subscriber to be
carried on credit for q reasonable time
for the purpose of obtaining Il renewal
of the subscription.
There was Il long discussion over this
point and it is evident from the course
| of the defence that it will he argued that
| much of the excess sample copies are
| copies sent TO subscribers who are in ar
| rears.
Just before leaving the stand Mr.. Phil
brook asked: "Bv tine way Mr.. Wimot
| you are a lawyer
II have been admitted to the bar was
| the nOn-cOmmittal reply of the witness
as he resumed his seat amidst laughter
| Just before the adjournment of court
| Howard Safer, a poStoffice inspector who
| worked on the case with Robinson, was
called to the stand. He had merely stat.
| cd his name and business when court ad.
iourned for the day.

he was more familiar with the details
of the business than any of the en-
ployeS. Mr. Robinson said that he de-
sired to make the investigation in his
own way and suggested To Mr.. Terry
that he had nothing to fear from an
investigation.
Mr.. Robinson then questioned NJ.
Terry III regard to the conduct of mis-
business. Among other things Mr..
Terry said that the circulation of
Sawyer's was 1,0oo.o0o copies. Of which
$4,000 were regular subscriptions and
the remainder sample copies. Hc new
or allowed the samples to exceed the
regulars. When the Inspector asked
for access 20 the records Mr.. Terry re-
piled that it did not seem right that
he should show his books or that the
inspector should question his employees,
when he, who know more about the
business than any other, was ready
and willing to answer questions.
AIR. Terry refused to allow the inspcc-
tor to examine the plant and in answer
to the question 'Do YOU have any OBJ
lection to my questioning the bookkcep-
er in your presence in regard to the ac-
counts" Mr.. Terry replied that he had
objections.
The following day there was another
conference. which was attended by Mr.
Weinschank. the New York attorney for
Mr.. Terry. and on his advice the inspec-
tor was allowed TO make the investiga-
ton, with the provisions that either Mr.
Terry or his agent should be present all
the time The witness was then uues-
toned in regard to what he learned by
the investigation of the circulation
He said that by counting the stenciled
wrappers for the November issue of
SawyeT's hefound that the total of sub
Scription copies was $4,000. and by adding
the daily reports accounts from the girls
who wrapped the magazine that e., 0OO
copies had been sent out as regulars or
subscription copies.
When he called the superintendent at
tention to this discrepancy the supern-
| tendent said that the witness had not
taken INTO account the new subscriptions
which had come in and for which no
stencils had teen made This made 1873.
600 copies, which the superintendent ac-
counted for to the witness by the state
ment that they were new subscriptions
which had come in since the stencils had
| been made.
The witness explained that the super
| intendent had told him previously that
| the subscription copies were directed
with stencil and sample copies by hand
writing.
