New York. March 29.-Upon Katie
Muller, the SO called wife of Albert w
Wolter, the supposed murderer of
Ruth Wheeler, rather than upon VOL.
ter himself it depends whether or not
the prisoner will ever tell what took
place when the little stenographer
went to VOTERS rooms in East Sew.
enty-tifth street looking for a position
While Wolter was being grilled by
Inspector Titus note was brought tc
the Tombs prison from Katie Muller
for Wolter. Inspector Titus handed
the note to Wolter, who kissed the
missive passionately, then read il
through, with hysterical outbursts
"Oh. my God" he sobbed as he finish
ed reading the letter, "she loves me
still"'
Then why not tell the truth and
save herr" asked the inspector.
Il will write her" was the sobbins
reply When | get an answer from
her saying she forgives me I'll tell the
truth"
And with that the police had to be
content. Not another word would VOL
ter say except to add: Come see me
Wednesday. | shall have her answer
by that time. Then | will confess ALL"
Then, turning to Inspector Titus, who
had been very gentle with him
The citizen. (Honesdale, Pa.) 1908-1914, 1910-03-30

throughout all the questioning, Vol
ter said. What | tell will tell to you
alone"
Later developments strengthen the
police in the belief that Wolter had
something To do with the white slave
trade.
This belief of the detectives is
strengthened by the finding of post
cards that Wolter addressed TO Il num-
Der of young women.
Still another link in the chain OF
circumstantial evidence against Wolter
was added when the police found Ruth
Wheeler umbrella in VOTERS room.
This umbrella was identified by the
murdered girls mother and sister, who
said that Ruth had the umbrella when
she left home last Thursday. Katie
Muller said that it was one of three
that she found in the closet when, in
accordance with VOTERS order, she
moved their few belongings. One UNI
brella was VOTERS, she said, one her
own, and the other was unknown to
her. But finding it in the closet, she
took it along
Another find that strengthens the po-
lice in their belief that the dead girl
was burned in the open fireplace was
the discovery OF brick In the hearth
to which We're adherlng piece OF
burned flesh and bit of ribbed un-
derwear. This underwear was like
that worn by the dead girl. Two tow
els partly burned also came TO light.
Likewise Wolter admitted that the
shirt found wrapped up on the fire es-
cape was his. This shirt was in
separate package under the body.

can not be kept free from water with
out giving it so great a pitch cross
wise as to expose vehicles to the
danger of overturning On a level
road every rut will hold water, which
will soak into the road and soften it
whether it be earth or broken stone:
whereas with even a slight Longitude
nal grade, every wheel track becomes
channel to carry off the water. II
Is common observation that earth
roads running up hill and down are
better to travel upon than level ones
The harder the road material the
less necessity for longitudinal drain
age of the surface. In filling up a
hollow or cutting down a hill, the
employment of a light longitudinal
grade may decrease the cost of con-
struction, and also the cost of
maintenance. The important princi-
pie to remember is that a slight
longitudinal grade is an advantage;
although over a long stretch of level
country it may not be practicable to
secure it,
After your road is once graded
and crowned one of the best ways
to keep it in good condition is by
frequent applications of the split
log drag. This work should be done
by farmers along the road. They
should be regularly employed and
provided with drags. Usually this
work is to be done when the fields
are too wet to work in, and plenty
of farmers can be found who will do
1t for little compensation. 1t is plain
that if this work were carried out it
would not be necessary to use
large road machine on the road once
in ten years, and rivalry would be
encouraged among the farmers as to
which would keep his road in the
best condition for the least money.
When this condition is reached the
problem of cutters is solved A
farmer should have three or four
miles of good road or less-what he
is willing and able to take care of.
If the work is done at the proper
time, Immediately after a rain, and
done well, the earth road will pack
smooth, and the traffic will spread
all over the road, and there will be
no ruts. When there are no ruts in
the surface of well crowned road,
the road is smooth and dry within a
very short time after it stops raining,
and the water is in the cutters.
When the township roads are all
put in good condition and are being
well maintained, then let the town
ships buy stone crushers and road
rollers. There are plenty of stone
all along the highways, and in ad-
Joining fields, which can be gotten
with but little expense, and after
that, with capable men the main
tenance of the roads is only ques-
tion of patience and pay roll.

Supreme Court Justice Sue
CumbS In Bath.
WAS SEIZED WITH APOPlEXY
Wife Hears Sound of Falling Body.
Death Cripples Court on Pend
ing Oil and Tobacco
Case Decisions.

Washington, March 29.-David Jo.
siah Brewer, associate justice of the
United States supreme court since
1889. dropped dead from apoplexy il
the bathroom Of his home here in his
seventy-third year. Up to the time OF
his death he had been apparently in
good health and spirits.
Mrs. Brewer heard his body fall and
went to investigate the cause. A ply.
sician who was hastily called said
death was almost instantaneous.
Close application to the work of the
supreme court in the Standard Oil and
tobacco cases undoubtedly haStened
Justice Brewers death. He had been
devoting himself ever since the recent
arguments to the study of the oil trust
case, and he had volume of the rec
ord of the case in his hand when
death overlook him
1t is probable that his death will
have farreaching effect on important
cases now pending before the supreme
court. He was one of the progressive
members of the court and inclined to u
liberal construction of the laws.
He sat i'll both the tobacco and
standard Oil cases. both of which are
on the eve of being decided. II has
been the general expectation that the
vote of the court in these cases would
he close. There is strong likelihood
now that conditions may be reversed
one way or the other over the deci.
sions as they would have been rem,
dered had Justice Brewer lived.
Justice Brewers passing makes the
second vacancy by death on the su
preme bench since the beginning of the
Taft administration. The first death
was that Of Justice Rufus w. Peck
ham, who was succeeded by Horace
II Lurton.
David j. Brewer had been a Justice
of the United States supreme court fol
more than twenty years. He was ap
pointed by President Harrison to sue
ceed Justice Stanley Matthews, and
he was sworn in on Jan. G, 1890.
The son of a missionary, he was
born in Smyrna, Asia Minor, in 1887
but was brought 10 America before he
was year old.
Like his father, his grandfather and
his grandfather and a number OF
his uncleS, he was an alumnus Of Yale
having taken his degree in 1856.
After leaving college young Brewer
studied law in the office of his uncle
David Dudley Field, in New York and
was graduated from the Albany Law
school in 1858. The next year he re
moved TO Leavenworth, Kan, where
he became United States commissioner
and judge Of the probate and circuit
courts.
In 1868 he was appointed a United
States district judge and remained on
that bench for four years. In 1869 he
became county attorney and from 1876
TO 1884 was justice OF the supreme
court of the state of Kansas. From
1884 TO 1889 he was a judge of the
United States circuit court.
He was the author OF several books
among them "The Pew to the Pulpit
1897; THE Twentieth Century From
Another Viewpoint" 1899; "AmericaI,
Citizenship 1902; "The United States
Christian NatiOn," 1905.

MEETING OF
ROAD SUPERVISORS
FARMERS SHOULD HELP

a Reduction in the Cost of HauIinp
From 25 Cents to IL Cents Would
Mean an annual Saving of Over
$3.50, 100000.
At the meeting of the supervisors
of Wayne county at the court house
on Monday afternoon at the court
house. A. w. Long, of Scranton, de-
Ilvered an interesting address on
Earth Roads" 1t should be read
by every person interested in the
making of good roads, and we are
glad that we can give the address in
full. The address follows:
Of the different kinds of roads. the
earth road is the cheapest in first
cost, and is by far the most common.
BY the term earth road is meant one
whose surface consists of the native
soil.
There are 2,15l, $50 miles of pub
lie roads in the United States. OF
this, mileage statistics show that
about Z per cent. are improved. We
may infer from this that 93 per cent.
OF the roads in the country are bad
roads. In Pennsylvania the total
road mileage is 99,O41, of which
about 700 miles have been improved
During the crop-year 1905-O6, S5,-
4S7, 100000 pounds of farm prod
ucts were hauled over dirt roads
from farms to shipping points. 1t
Is evident from this fact that the
slightest saving in the cost of haul
ing per ton would assume striking
proportions when considered for the
entire country.
Investigations have established the
fact that the average cost of haul
ing per ton per mile is about 25
cents; on stone roads in ordinary
conditions, y cents; on earth roads
containing ruts and mud, 29 cents;
on sandy roads when wet, 33 cents;
and on sandy roads when dry, ga
cents.
A reduction in the cost of hauling
from 25 cents to IL cents, would
mean an annual saving of over
$3.50, 100000. Sometimes the state
ment is made that the cost necessary
to build these roads would increase
taxation, but the reverse is true. If
the present cost of moving farm
products to market is 25 cents per
ton per mile, and by improved roads
il is reduced to IL cents per ton, we
have a net saving of 13 cents on
every ton hauled. 1t is estimated
that the average farmer lives five
miles from market, including his
return trip there is, therefore, a loss
of $l.3O to the acre, cost of moving
his crops TO market. If he farms 80
acres the tax of bad roads makes a
loss in the moving of his crops to the
farmer of over 500 per year. The
cost of steam transportation in this
country is about three quarters of
cent per ton per mile. The cost in the
Old country, where they know the
value of good roads. is cents per
mile.
In all forms OF road construction
the most important consideration is
that OF drainage, since no road,
whether earth or stone, can long re-
main good without it. Drainage
alone will often change a bad earth
road TO a good one, while the best
stone road may be destroyed by the
absence OF proper drainage. Water
is the natural enemy of earth roads.
for mixed with dirt it makes mud,
and mud makes bad going; no road,
however well made otherwise. can
endure II water collects and remains
on it. A perfectly drained road will
have three systems of drainage. un-
der drainage, side bitches, and sur
face drainage.
