BONDSMEN CAPTURE ITALIAN.
Hon. L. b. Finn Figures in Case in
Windsor County Court.

Springfield, Dec. 21.-F'idele Coru-
sio, an Italian wanted at the Wind
sor County Court at Woodstock, was
brought to Springfield by Hon. E. B.
Finn last night after an extended
search on the latter's part through
nearly all of the surrounding towns.
1t seems that Mr.. Finn and an Ital-
ian named John Barbette had fur
nished bail for the appearance of Coru
sio to the amount of 5000. When 1t
became time for the Italian to go to
the court he was nowhere to be
found. Several men were put on the
track but no trace of him could be
found until Saturday afternoon.
At that time Mr.. Finn received
communication from Boston that the
Italian was held in detention in that
city and he went there at once. There
he found Corusio under detention but
was unable to secure him until he
should have been taken into court in
that city This was finally brought
about and after some trouble the Ital-
ian was returned to Vermont. He will
be obliged to appear at Woodstock
on a charge of assault and breach OF
the peace.

tees of said village. The plaintiff

COOK AN IMPOSTER
Report Of Committee Delegated to
Investigate Records Of Brooklyn
Physician Shows Him to Be Gil
gantic Fraud-PrOOfs "Ludicr0us
and Impudentr-Honors to Be
Stripped From Him.

Copenhage-, Dec. 22.-The claims
of DR.. Frederick A. Cook as discover
er of the North Pole were not only
shattered by the committee of scien-
lists which reported, after an exam
ination of the explorers" records,
to the University of Copenhagen yes
terday, but the members of the COM
mittee individually branded Cook
as an imposter without qualification
and described his treatment of the
university in putting forward his
claims and submitting his so-called
records as "impudent' and Shame
less"
The university officials, accepting
their view of his conduct, are nov
considering plans to strip him, so
far as the institution itself is con-
cerned, of the honors conferred upon
him when, early in September, he
was heralded as the discoverer of.the
Pole.
The people here were prepared
for a verdict of mot proven" from
the committe, but when the positive
finding of the body practically brand
ing the recent hero and imposter be-
came known the feeling of suspicion,
which has been growing with the
days, turned to chagrin and anger.
The most charitable view that can
be taken of the episode is that Cook
labored under the relusion that h.
had really found the Pole and hon.
estly claimed the honor which he be-
lieved to be his, but the people gen.
orally side with the committee which
reported.
Explorers and scientists have al
most to a man, lost faith in the hon
esty of the late hero. Knud Ras
mussen, who may perhaps be said TO
have been DR.. Cooks stanchest sup
ed draw the adverse report made pub
lie today.
The press of the capital has turn
ed savagely upon Cook, who is re-
preached for hiding in the hour OF
his supreme test and denounced az
the man who made Denmark tht
laughing stock of the world. His fail
ure to present himself here in per-
son is regarded as the direct result ol
guilty conscience.

ESCAPED PRISONER RETURNS.
Man Who Decamped From Orange
County Jail Gives Himself Up.

Chelsea, Dec. 20.-Weak and en-
aciated from sickness, and with one
arm in a sling as the result of an ac-
cident, Charles E. Davis, alias Jack
Mcmahon, of Thetford, sure ndered
himself at the Orange County Jail
Saturday night and expressed HIM
self as ready to take such punish
ment as is due him for escaping from
confinement last spring Davis was
at once locked up and he is likely to
remain so for some time, as the Of
ficers of the State have been search
ing quietly for him for more than six
months.
Davis was arrested and convicted
of furnishing liquor last winter ana
was given a Jail sentence. His time
would have expired last June but not
until after the session of the Grand
Jury. The States Attorney had been
furnished information from Davis
under which other prosecutions un-
uci INC IHuol ld" Htu uteu DtS uL
and his testimony was needed before
the Grand Jury
Under this condition of affair i.
Davis was employed under the pres
ent convict labor law by w. A. Reed
farmer of Chelsea. Reed sent Davis
away one day with team to get a
load of feed and sent by him a
creamery check endorsed in blank tc
pay for the feed and bring the bal
ance back. Neither Davis nor the
money returned. Mr.. Reed found his
team in South Royalton the next day
and later found where Davis ha
cashed the check.
Jailer Adams was notified and tn:
sheriffs department has been watch
ing for Davis since then. 1t was
learned that he went to White Rive,
Junction and thence to his home il
Thetford, where the officers arrived
but few hours after he had lef
for parts unknown.
1t now appears from the story o.
Davis that he went from Thetfort
directly to place in Canada abou
800 miles north of Ottawa and re
mained there until recently.
Leaving there he was involved In
a wreck of some sort on the Cana
Do
and sick for some time. When hi
arrived Saturday night, he had EC
overcoat and was so weak he coult
hardly stand, though he had appar
emily braced himself with fire-watei
to endure the long stage ride. 1t il
expected that before Davis complete!
his former sentence. he will be re
arrested for breaking Jail
