Ray Collins, the Burlington boy
whose pitching has largely been res
ponsible for the remarkable record
made by the Vermont University base
ball team during the past four years,
is generally considered TO be one OF
the best OF not the best college pit
cher of recent years. He graduates

could nave Joined the Americans last

university for another year ana nhish
his college course with the team ne

Collins. during his career as a col
lege pitcher, has been ably supported
by Marcus burlington OF Pownal be-
hind the bat. burlington is not only
an excellent backstop but he is one OF
the active, trappy catchers whose
work adds so much to the attractive
ness of a game of baseball. Collins
and burlington are both good batters
and their presence in the game Satur-
day is likely TO produce some sensa,

The baseball season thus n has
been unusually successful in the poinI

ITALIAN MURDER
CASE ON TRIAL
At WOODSTOCK
Necessary to Use Interpreter
in the Evidence
THE WUMAN IN THE CASE
Placer on Stand as Witness She SAID
She Had Borrowed Money of
Respondent.

Woodstock, June 30.-In tAe case
against Francesca Castillini, charged
with the murder of Castellini Ceppep-
RIM, in Reading June q, on trial IN
Windsor county court, the session was
opened about 1890 o'clock yesterday
morning.
Pasuuei Ricci came from Rutland to
act as Interpreter. The defence
cross examined Constable Don Hawk
ms of Reading, who found the respon-
dent under guard after the murder,
but not bound as alleged by some.
Mrs. Louisa Yherardi, the woman in
the case, took the witness stand dur
ing the morning She said she had
been in Reading about a month and
a half coming here from Waltham
Mass. She had also lived in West
Newton. Mass. where ner husband
committed suicide about six months
ago. The witness had roomed at the
same house with the prisoner but did
not come to Vermont WITH him. She
saw him about month after her ar
rival.
After her husband died the prisoner
asker ner to marry him, but she did
not promise TO do so. He came to
see her three tines after she arrive
at Reading and urged her TO marry
him, but she sent him away. 1t was
during tne last visit that Ceppeprini
was killed.
The cross examination brought out
the fact that the witness had had $500
of the prisoners money but she said
she had paid it back. She declared
that her three months old baby was
ner husbands child.
The jury was selected about 81
o'clock yesterday afternoon, two men
being rejected The prisoner appear
ed in court with bandaged head as the
result OF blows inflicted by himself
with stone.
The indictment charging murder
was read in English. no Interpreter be
! ing present. Judge Alfred A. Hall or
dered a plea of not guilty to be made
for him. The rest of the jurors were
excused until July 10 over Champlain
! tercentenary week.
| Eight witnesses for the state were
sworn. DR.. B. II. Stone of the state
| laboratory of hygiene at Burlington
described the autopsy performed. He
found the face crushed. the left cal
clipped and three knife wounds in the
back. two OF which went clear through
the body. The organs were normal
with the exception of the kidneys
which showed slight signs of Bright's
disease.
The prisoner interrupted the proc
eedings and Mr.. Bell, foreman of the
pulp wood gang at Reading. was call
ed in to explain to the prisoner the ma
ture of the proceedings. The bloody
clothing was exhibited by DR.. Stone.
Constable Hawkins told of finding {
bloody knife in the cellar, and of find
ing revolver. both of which were
exhibited.

AUTOMOBILE RUNS
BOWMAN old NAM
ON STREET
Was Crossing Road at Main
Street Corner
BOYS TURNED OUT FOR TEAM
Matthew Wetherbee Thrown to the
Grourd Striking and Oislocatlng
ShouIder-WilI Recover

Shortly before five o'clock yester-
dav afternoon Mathew Weatherbee,
aged II. of Pownal road was run down
in the middle of the street near the
bank corner by two young men in a
small runabout. Tne car which was
a Maxwell was driven by Leonard
Cultivate, son of Mrs. Philip b. Jen-
nings accompanied by George L.
Stevens, Jr., freshman at Yale.
The machine was coming up North
street at its usual rate OF speed
Near the corner, the youths declare,
they were forced to turn out for a
team and so lost their bearings. Mr..
Weatherbee, crossing the street with
the slow tread of age, was barely able
to throw up mis- hands when the car
bounding around the corner bore
down upon him. A number OF by
ISLANDERS yelled hoping to give warn
ing. Cultivate endeayored to crank
the car to one side and so struck the
aged man full in the side with the
mudguard which bent up double from
the impact.
The old man reeled and struck the
ground with sucn force as TO dislo-
cate his right shoulder. Cultivate
stopped the runabout in front of the
Shurtleff Pharmacy and springing out
was one CT those who helped Weat-
herbee to his feet The injured man
was taken at once to the office of DR..
F. j. Hurley where an anaesthetic
was administered and the dislocation
reduced. Cultivate accompanied
him together with the officers who
were on the scene soon after the ac-
cident. Both young men were con-
siderably frightened though tne
novelty of such a situation would
hardly appeal to Ted Stevens who
has already been a conspicuous figure
in several such incidents.
Chief Brazil took Cultivate in
charge until the arrival of States At
toreny William }. Meagher. who was
closeted for some time with young
Cultivate questioning MIN.
George H. Weatherbee, the son of
the injured man and an employee of
the Cooper Manufacturing Company,
was telephoned to and soon arrived.
The old man during the whole of
the ordeal preserved an expression of
compOsure, showing his Yankee
grit After the treatment of his
shoulder. he was taken to mis- home
in the Jennings touring car, accom-
panied by DR.. Hurley and the son.
Mr.. Meagher with Leonard Cultivate
followed in the latter's runabout.
This morning Mr.. Weatherbee was
much improved, having spent night
of rest and quiet
The majority of the eye witnesses
state that the car did not touch Wealth
erbee after the first collision but Mi
chael Kane who was perhaps the clos
est person at the time of the accident
states that the rear wheel .sed over
the rigat shoulder of the fallen man.

FIRE AT HOOSIck FALLS
Baptist Church Damaged to tn,
Amount of $4,000.

Yesterday morning Perrin B. Fisk,
sexton of the Baptist church, was
about to burn up a quantity of rubbish
which had accumulated in the rear of
the church. when sparks were blown
against the structure and before they
could be extinguished considerable
damage resulted. The fire began at
l1.5O O'Clock and it was until / O'Clock
That the danger was over. The flames
spread rapidly and at one time it was
thought that the entire church which
is a wooden structure would be com
pletely destroyed.
The damage will reach $4,000 which
includes the complete destruction OF
the organ, valued at $1,000. An insur.
ance of $4,000 was carried on the
building. valuable library and other
articles that could be reached were ia.

WH|TCOMb TRIED
TO ESCAPE FROM
CONSTABLE
Jumped From Team and Swan
Small Canal
is NOW IN COUNTY JAIL
Hearing Will Not Be Had Until Re-
suit of Injuries to Alexander
Bishop Is Known

Andrew Whitcomb, for whom war
rant was issued by States Attorney
Meagher for an assault upon Alexan-
der Bishop, road commissioner in the
twin of Searsburg, was brought here
early last evening by Constable Geo.
Briggs of Searsburg and lodged in the
county Jail A hearing in his case
will not be held at once, the length or
time intervening depending upon the
result of Mr.. Bishops injuries. Mr..
Bishop is so years of age and three
broken ribs is rather serious matter
for man of his years and complica-
lions may arise that will make Whit
combs offence more serious than it
appears at present.
Whitcomb's arrest which took place
in Readsboro yesterday afternoon was
a spectacular affair. The Searsburg
authorities had ascertained that
Whitcomb had started in the direc-
ton of Readsboro and Constable NJ.
o. Hicks was notified by telephone
that there was warrant out for the
fugitive's arrest.
Inc constable discovered WnltcOmD
on a Hoosac Tunnel and Wilmington
train evidently making his way out
of the state and started to arrest him.
but the man made a break for liberty
and in his fight sprang into and swan
across the canal at the box factory
When he emerged on the other side
of the canal some of the employees in
the factory captured him and turned
him over TO the officer
Constable Hicks later turned his
prisoner over to officer Briggs who
brought him to Bennington. Whit
comb is man of about 80 years OF
age. 1t was reported in Searsburg
that since the alleged assault upon
Bishop he has been endeavoring tC
dispose of some of ais property in
that town thus adding to the suspicion
that he was preparing to leave the
state for parts unknown
States Attorney Meagher has re
ceived no word from DR.. Page of vii
mington, the physician who is attend
ing Mr.. Bishop from which may be
| gathered that the condition of the in
iured man has not changed for the
worse since yesterday.

PLAYED A TIE GAME
East Arlington and Hoosick Falls
Quit to

Y. w. Phillips sends the Banner the
following account of the baseball game
played at East Arlington last Satur-
day:
East Arlington, June 26.-The Hoos-
lex Falls local baseball team gave the
East Arlingtons the fastest run so far
this season. Both teams put up a fair
article of baseball Mooney, the Hoo
sick Falls pitcher, was an easy mark
in the first inning Four safe hits
gave East Arlington three runs. Cath
cart, one of Bennington's last years
players, held down second for Hoos-
lex and was on hand with the big
stick but for fast outer field his
heavy hitting with several others
would have piled up a big score. The
crowd was not what was expected for
game of this kind. 1t was an inter-
esting game to watch, as will be seen
outside of professional ball park.
There is a series of games schedul-
ed with Rutland, Proctor, Granville
and Adams. Unless a better crowd
turns out Monday, July 5th to the dou-
BILE header with Adams the schedule
will have to be thrown up. All those
interested in good baseball game are
| asked to take their friends out to the
Monday game.
Graves of the Hudson River league
will catch for Adams, also the follow
ing twirlers will be on hand: McGlynn
the only man that has pitched win
ming game here; Bunce lost in an IL
inning game last year. score 4-3;
Barsdorf who held last Arlington for
five innings without a hit.
East Airing ton will have full team
ready by then to try for the amateur
state championship now held by Rut-
land and also to put Bennington S
crack team on the shelf which it looks
as II they might do. Score by in
nings:

TREASURY SENDS
OUT CALL FOR
S25,OOO,OOO
Reduction in Bank Holdings to
Strengthen Balances
TAKES NEARLY ALL DEPOSITS
Expected That Issue of Panama Bonds
viii Be Made Before End OF
Year

Washington, June 30-A call on
national depositary banks for re-
turn to the treasury of government
funds aggregating approximately $2o'-
100000 was made yesterday by Secre-
tary of the Treasury MacVeagh. OF
this amount 100000 has been call
ed for July 10 and SIG, 100000 for Aug.
10.
Balances in all active depositaries
are uniformly reduced to the lowest
amount which the daily needs of the
government will permit.
This call will practically wipe out
all of the deposits of government
funds in national banks subject to
check by the treasury of the United
States, except about $3700O,0 900 which
is held in active account and neces-
sary TO meet checks of government
disbursing officers, and 100000,
which will be allowed to remain in
81 900 lots in such of the 1000 smaller
national banks as desire to retain
their designation as national bank
depositaries.
The working balance at present is
more than $43,000,000 which will be
increased by the call to approximate
ly $6S,000,000. The low state of the
government working balance made
its strengthening necessity, and
thus augmented the treasury depart
ment will have ample funds for some
months.
1t is confidently expected however
that before the coming December an
additional issue of Panama bonds or
the further issue of treasury receipts
of Indebtedness will be found neces-
sary. No decision however, has vet
been reached on this point.

VISITED STATE PRISON
Sheriff Godfrey Noted Many Improve
ments at State Institution.

Sheriff Fred Godfrey returned Sun
day evening from Windsor where he
went on Saturday with Thomas Har-
ris of Pownal, who was recently sen
fenced at Manchester to 10 years IN
the state prison for the killing OF Os-
car Turner.
Because of train connections Sher-
IN Godfrey was Obliged to wait at
Windsor for some hours after deliV-
ering his prisoner TO the superinten-
dent and he thus had an opportunity
to make thorough inspection OF the
institution. While Mr.. Godfrey has
taken several prisoners to Windsor
during the past few years on previous
occasions he has been able to take a
return train soon after his arrival
and he has not made stay or any
length there since the execution OF
Mary Rogers.
During these years there have been
many improvements at the institution
and in the opinion of Mr.. Godfrey
there is not better appointed or
better managed prison anywhere than
that at Windsor. During the years
that he served as deputy under Sher-
in Wilson of Arlington and since he
has held the position of sheriff he has
visited a number of the penal insti-
buttons in the east and ne has never
yet seen a prison that in its appear
ance for neatness and careful man
agement could compare with that at
Windsor.
Sheriff Godfrey went over a large
part of the prison, the shops, the cells
and the workshop and was impressed
with the many advances in manage
ment that had been made since his
last visit.
There are not many prisoners at
Windsor who received their senten-
ces from Bennington county. OF
these Sheriff Godfrey saw but two,
Alfred Mahan, who is undergoing a
life sentence for the murder of his
| little niece at North Bennington, and
Eugene Sargood of Arlington who is
serving a sentence for poisoning.
! Mahan is daily employed in the shoe
shop and the superintendent stated
that ne was well-behaved prisoner.
Sargood is also employed in the
shoe shop, but in addition he also
acts as barber for the prison officials,
having a shop in a room near the of
| fee. Sargood, the officials say has
been model prisoner since his ar.
| rival at the institution. His barber
shop is fitted with all the parapner-
MALTA necessary for the business and
Sheriff Godfrey said looked as neat
and comfortable as any barber shop
he ever patronized.
Sargood is employed in the shoe
shop and has invented an improve
ment for some one of the shoe ma
chiens that is being seriously consid
cred by some of the large shoe man
ufacturers. 1t is claimed for the
invention that it prevents a waste Of
stock that has hitherto constituted
The Bennington evening banner. (Bennington, Vt.) 19??-1961, 1909-06-30

one of the large losses in the bust
ness.
Through his attorney, ]. X. Batchel-
der of Arlington, Sargood has an ap-
plication before the United States
district court for a release on the
ground that he has been improperly
sentenced and is hopeful that the
proceedings will result favorably. He
insisted to Sheriff Godfrey that he
was innocent of the colt-poisoning Of
fence for which he was convicted.
He did not desire a pardon but was
anxious that the habeas corpus pro-
ceedings should result In his release.
