SAYS MILNE NEVER
WAS IN THE DEAL
To Clear Himself, He Laid
Blame on Guiltless Man,
Who Served Sentence.

VANCOUVER, B. c., Dec. 16.-Two
years ago two firemen of the British
Columbia Electric company, named
Maynard and Sherman, were arrested
here charged with padding the pay
rolls of the concern with names of
dead men, securing in this manner
thousands of dollars. Both men for
feited their bonds and disappeared.
Yesterday Maynard reappeared here
and was arrested.
Before disappearing some months
ago, Maynard 'made a statement in
volving James Milne, superintendent
of the company. Milne. a man of
large private fortune and good stand
ing, was prosecuted and sentenced to
1S months in Jail, which he served.
Three months ago he completed his
sentence Maynard has now made a
confession generating Milne, whom he
saws he falsely accused to save him
self.
