New Attitude Taken About
Mrs. Julius Wells, Ac-
cused of Murder
NO OUTSIDER MAY SEE
HER BUT ATTORNEY
Franklin County Grand Jury
Is Expected to Take Up
Case Tomorrow

st. Adams, March l0.--On the opening
of the March term of Franklin county
court tomorrow, with Judge Willard
w. Miles presiding, it is expected that
the grand jury will take up the charge
of murder, of which Mrs. Julius Wells
of Swanton stands accused in causing
the death of two of her children by adj
ministering arsenic. If true bill is
returned it is expected that the case will
be tried at the present term of court,
probably before the end of March.
The situation respecting the woman
has changed materially, and there is an
undercurrent of secrecy on the part Of
the officials. States Attorney G. +.
Ladd and Attorney General Brown are
to have charge of the prosecution, and
the former, who came to st. Albans to-
day, was very uncommunicative about
the case. refusing to make any state
ment. At the Jail the same attitude
was maintained and three or four news
paper men, who tried to see the ac-
cused woman, were met with the an
nouncement that an order had been IS
sued forbidding anyone to see Mrs.
Wells except her counsel and the Of
fcials OF the Jail. Her attorney, Mr..
stated to-day that the woman
was bearing up well.

THROUGH GRANITE TRAINS
To Be Resumed Over the Central ver-
mont Railroad Tomorrow.

According 20 an announcement made
at the local Offices of the Central Yer
mont railroad this morning, the through
granite trains to Port Huron, Mich, and
other western points will be resumed to-
morrow night. The news that the road
is to renew its excellent service of last
year viii be met with approval from
every granite manufacturer in the Barre
belt. Last year during the height of the
season, as many as thirty cars day
were sent northward to form a long
train of granite cars made up at st.
Adams. Stock cars going north will
connect with trains going south over the
Rutland road. the main train proceeding
to st. Albans, where the granite special
is made up each night.
Beginning tomorrow. il is expected
that ten cars will be dispatch from
Barre each night, the number increasing
as the output is augmented through the
spring and summer. The service has
been abandoned through the winter
months. when the output is not large
enough to warrant extra provisions for
shipment.

DEATHBED CONFESSION
Said to Have Been Made by John Babbitt
Already in Prison.

Poughkeepsie n. y, March l0.-Sheriil
W. b. Shaw of Portsmouth, y. H., called
the Poughkeepsie department on the tel
ephone last night and said a prisoner in
his Jail had confessed yesterday that he
murdered Miss Emma Brooks, in her
home near Poughkeepsie July a. 1909.
The prisoner is held under arrest on a
charge of grand larceny, under the name
OF John Babbitt. He has consumption.
Sheriff Shaw said he made the confess
sion in the course of two-hour inter
view in the Jail yesterday.
Miss Brooks, who was y, lived alone
IN her cottage on the Paltz turnpike,
three miles from the Hudson river. She
was found dead with her throat cut.
The knife with which she was murdered
was found under the veranda of her
house.
The crime was attributed TO tramp
berrypickers. Ii was supposed at the
time that Miss Brooks had about $500 in
the house but Babbitt told the sheriff he
got only SIS, it is claimed.
As the crime was committed in Ulster
rounty, tn, Poughkeepsie police referred
the New Hampshire sheriff to the au-
thorities at Kingston.
sheriff Shaw said Babbitt is not likely
10 live long, and that the realization Of
this fact prompted his confession. Bah
bitt was under the impression that a re-
ward was offered. and as Sheriff Shaw
had been very kind to him he sought to
help the sheriff to get the reward.
Extrsdition proceedings will probably
BE- begun.

VT. LUMBER VILLAGE
LOST $4,000 BY FIRE
Mountain Mills Near Wilmington Wis.,
tied Sunday by Third Large Fire
in Five Years.

Wilmington, March 10. - Mountain
Mills, lumber hamlet about two mile.
south OF this village, had $4,000 fire
Sunday morning which is the third large
blaze that has visited that place in five
years. The Office building containing the
store and postoffice, the boarding house
that accommodated about so people and
two dwelling houses were destroyed.
The large MILL. which stands only about
a hundred feet from the burned build
ings. was saved by fortunate wind
which swept the sparks away.
The fire was discovered at 4 As o'clock
In the basement of the store and it was
eight o'clock before lit was under con.
troll. The Wilmington & Hoosic Tunnel
railroad ran special train from Will
mington to carry men to the scene.
Some of the furniture was saved in the
dwelling houses but scarcely anything
was saved from the store, postoffice or
Office. The loss is covered by small in
surance
This property was bought about year
ago from the Deerfield Lumber company
BY the New England Hardwood com
pany, which owned all the buildings
burned. w. w, Follett is postmaster at

TO STAY ANOTHER WEEK.
Rev. Mr.. Prindle to Preach at First Bap-
tist Church.

Large and appreciative congregations
greeted Rev. Prindle in the Baptist
church at both of Sundays services.
The morning sermon was timely warn
ing against carelessness in the matter
of things pertaining to the spiritual
realm. The evening discourse on The
Four Handwritingsn was perhaps the
most impressive message of the series
delivered thus far.
Probably for the first time in Yer
mont Baptist work. the Baptist pas
tor.at large has been granted the right
to remain in Barre for one week longer
than the time arranged. Although this
disarranges his schedule for the rest Of
the season, he is glad to inconvenience
himself that those who have been kept
from hearing him thus far may have
the opportunity. So there will be meet
ings at the Baptist church each ,veE-
ing this week (except Saturday at 1880
p. m. As last week both piano and
organ will be used in the singing, Il
choir will lead and special music will
be arranged for each evening.

ONE ARREST MADE
IN STEAMER DISASTER
Assistant Foreman Of Stevedores Is Held
But Theories OF Experts Tend to
Combustion as Cause.

Baltimore, March l0.-Athough vii
liam j. Bomhardt, assistan, foreman O
the stevedores employed in loading th'
dynamite ship Alum Chine, which blew
up in the lower harbor her Friday, II
under arrest charged with the act that
caused the disaster, dynamite experts
still incline to the theory that spontane.
Gus combustion in the coal bunkers OF
the vessel caused the disaster.
Bomhardt was arrested early yester-
day morning after Coroner Russell had
taken the statement of Morris Price, a
steverore, who said he saw Bombardt
stick a hook into a box of dynamite and
cause its explosion. The coroner says
the statement of Price is supported by
other stevedores, who were in the imme-
diate vicinity.
Bomhardt denies the use of the bale
hook, but admits the box OF dynamite
exploded while he was handling il. His
theory is that the friction caused by the
blisters on two adjoining sticks produced
the explosion.
Contrasting with these stories are the
statements of Others aboard the Alum
Chine that they heard no explosion what
ever before seeing smoke and flames pour
ing from the hold of the ship.
Attempts to reconcile the stories of
Bomhardt and Price with the views of
possibilities held by the experts have
been made. One is based on the idea
that fire in the bunkers of the Alum
Chine ignted the dynamite at the time
the stevedores thought the explosion oc-
Cured.
The second theory is that the bale
hook was not thrust into a box of dy-
Mantle, but into box of percussion
caps. This would have produced, per-
haps, minor explosion.
The hospital reports yesterday added
the names of two stevedores to the list
of casualties. One of the men died late
Saturday night and the other yesterday.
Others of the injured showed improve
ment.
Memorial services were held in most
Of the city churches yesterday for the
men who lost their lives in the tragedy.
Engineers of the United States army
under command of Col. l.. II. Beach will |
take full charge of the wreckage of the
Alum Chine and attendant barge. They |
will set to work TO remove the debris !
from the channel. The engineers are in
,lined to think that large proportion
If 600 cases of dynamite are lying un-
exploded where they fell and vessels are
warmed to avoid the scene of the dis
lster.
Three men who had ben listed among
he missing were located yesterday.
Nelson OF the crew Of the col
ier Jason, who jumped overheard from
hat vessel when she was struck by dy
lamite from the Alum Chine. was picked
lp by launch and yesterday came to
Baltimore to have badly sprained ankle
reated. The other two were stevedores,
vho were not on board the Altm Chine
t the time.
