IN CELL, JESTS At
CHARGE OF Theft
New Haven Bank Bookkeeper
Says the Property Seized
is His Own
WORTHLESS SECURITIES IN BOX
Frederick H. Brigham Talks Of His
alcatons-complaint Filed Now
Asserts that Alleged Shortage at
Merchants National Is 100000.

New Haven, Conn, June 16.-Fred-
erick H. Brigham, formerly head
bookkeeper OF the Merchants Nation
al Bank of New Haven, whose defalca.
tions were said by the bank officials
to total more than 100000, talked
with correspondent in his cell in the
county Jail here
Brigham, we'll dressed and appar-
emily not the least disturbed by the
charges, made it evident that he is
confident his plan to outwit the bank
officials will prove eminently sue
cessful.
"In the first place" Brigham began,
"the savings of my eighteen years
salary would, If wisely invested, have
amounted to enough to enable me to
purchase all the securities the United
States authorities have found in my
safe deposit box.
"In the second place, there is no
way Of proving, even If 1t be estab-
lished that l embezzled the funds Of
the bank, that made use Of any part
of such stolen moneys for the pur-
Cudoo VI tiiS oSSuii''So nv" hSAN ~
the Federal officers.
"As for this civil suit brought by
the bank to make me pay them $780,
900, that Is absurd on the face Of 1t.
l shall institute a counter suit de-
manding that the bank prove that the
property seized by the United States
Marshal was bought by me with
money stolen from the bank. Unless
they can prove this my right to the
property will be shown to be abso,
lutte.
LAS matter of fact. the bank Will
never go on with this civil suit. II
the criminal charge is disproved there
will be little l .fficulty in arranging
this civil action with the bank Off
GERS.
I'm any event and no matter how
long l am incarcerated my wife will
suffer no hardship financially"
Unless Brigham's resources are oi
a different kind than those already
discovered by the Federal authorities
1t is doubtful if Mrs. Brigham, who is
twenty-five years her husbands jun
ior, will find herself as we'll provided
for as Brigham seems TO think.

SNAKE IN BEER; 8 MEN DIE
Reptile Thought to Have Poisoned
Barrel! in Which He Lay.

Richmond, June 15.-Joseph NJ.
Staten, bridge inspector for the Chesa-
peake and Ohio Railway, who has just
returned from an inspection tour in
West Virginia, tells Of the remarka-
BILE death of eight Italian laborers on
the Piney Creel; branch of the road,
near the town OF Raleigh, following a
wild debauch with barrel of beer.
According to Staten, the men pur-
chased and set up the barrel of beer
in their shack in the mountains and
proceeded to drink their fill Later
all eight were discovered lying about
on the beds and on the floor dead.
To the fact that a considerable por-
ton of the beer was still left in the
barrel, the conclusion was reached
that overindulgence had not caused
the death, of the men.
The barrel was taken into the yard
and the beer allowed to escape
through the bunhole. None of the
beverage was allowed to be drunk for
fear it had been poisoned. A large
rattlesnake was found in the bottom
of the barrell after the beer had been
drawn off. 1t is presumed that the
snake, in its death agony, injected
enough of its poison into the beer to
kill the men who drank of it.

Work of Rescue--suppics Rushed

Marseilles, France, June 16.--From
IS to 100 dead and 100 injured is the
estimated total casualties as the re-
suit of the earthquake which devastat-
ed several towns and villages in the
southernmost part or France, particu-
larly in the Departments of Herault
and Bouches-du-Rhone
Great suffering is reported from the
remoter places, owing to a lack OF
bread and necessaries of life, before
the arrival of assistance. 1t is possible,
too that the list of casualties may be
greatly heightened, as the ruins have
not yet been entirely searched. The
villages of Saint Cannat and Rognes
were completely demolished by the
earthquake, and Lambesc, which is
which Is twelve miles from AK, suf-
fered heavily. According to advices
received here a number of the wound
ed are still imprisoned in the ruins,
and soldiers hurried to the scenes of
trouble are working desperately to
rescue them.
Survivors are sleeping in tents and
the streets are impossible. In many
places they have been torn UP and are
incumbered with masses of rocks.
Houses, public buildings, and churches
were crumbled to pieces. Among 9TH
er villages seriously damaged are Vau-
venagargues, Venelles, Felissanne,
Puy-Ste. .-Reparardi, and Arguyls.
The victims at st. Cannat and Rog-
mes were horribly mutilated. There
were evidences that several Of the
victims had lived for hours imprison-
ed by the debris before they died. The
people rushed into the streets when
the first shock occurred, crying out in
terror, but many returned to rescue
their families. At Rognes family OF
four were buried in the ruins. Their
cries could be heard throughout the
night, but all were dead in the morn
ing when rescu;ng party reached
them.
At Saint Cannat an old man and his
son were Watching billiard game.
They were instantly killed. The play
ers escaped with slight bruises. The
chateau Valmousse, near Saint Can
nat, was badly amaged. The COM
! munal chateau at Arguyls was split
in two. The historic village of Verne

killed. The momentary loss in the

Irene Go to Rescue of Cunarder
that Struck Rocks on Flores.
London, June 1.-THE Cunard Line
steamer Slavonia, from New York,
with about 410 passengers on board,
has been wrecked upon Flores, one
of the Azores Islands.
The Cunard company has received
no details of the accident.
The only information it has was
received through the North German
Lloyd Steamship Company, which in
formed it that the steamer Princess
Irene of the former company had TAX
en- off q hundred of the Slavonia's sa-
loon passengers and that the Batavia
had taken 800 steerage passengers
from the wrecked steamer.
1t is assumed that all the passengers
have been landed at st. Michaels.
The Slavonia lies on the southwest
of Flores Island.
No news of the wreck has as yet
been received direct from the Azores.
1t is stated that the steamer lies in
very bad position on the rocks and
that there is scarcely any doubt that
she will prove a total loss.
