FUNDS SPENT FOR
DETECTIVE WORK
in Windham County Was
Much Less Than Average-Item
of SCI Yielded $500 in Fines.

The Brattleboro correspondent OF the
Springfield Sunday Republican sizes up
as follows the expenses In Wlndham
county for detective service IN the at
torney general department, which IS
a subject of some criticism just now:
" Windham county makes remark
ably good showing in the statistics
recently published by State Auditor ii.
f. Graham in regard to funds eXpendedi
throughout the state for detective ser
vice. There are IA counties In the
state, so that Windham s share for de-
tectiye service out of the $35, 900 spent
in the last nine months would be s., 800
if all spent an equal amount The sta
tistics as published show that the total
amount paid for work in Windham
county was $928.32, and as a result of
one expenditure of $61S9 the state re-
ceived in fines 5000. The residents of
the county will recall several instances
which called for the expenditure of
funds in order to properly carry on the /
work of the prosecuting department.
1.-The Halifax tragedies several miles !
| from this village necessitated the hir-
| ing of several automobiles in order to /
| investigate the affair promptly and to /
| take testimony for the trial to be held
| in the future. 1t is doubtful if there
| is a person in this section who was not
| shocked by the triple tragedy and
| murder week later in that little ham
| let and who would have seriously criti-
| cized county officials if they had not
made every possible effort to see that
| the law was enforced. In order to
| cope with the situation the officers
were obliged to go there by automo-
| biles. During this same period it viii
| hn iDI hon n
| made by the sheriff 5 department Of
the county to Nottingham at the Iii
rection of Acknowledgement r. T.
Brown to investigate the mysterious
disappearance of Mr.. Kingsley. When
the crimes for the past nine months in
this county are considered in cOnnec-
ton with the funds expended as shown
by the data given out by the auditor
| Of accounts it looks as if officials had
kept expenses down to reasonable
figure.
There is not resident in the
county who would regret the expendi-
, ture of any reasonable sum in the fur
therance of Justice in such affairs as
those i'll Halifax and Nottingham 1t
| is true that those eases could have
been handled with much less expense
If they had occurred on IA line of rail
, road, but the prosecuting department
had to cope with the situation as it
was. The statistics show that some
funds were evidently used by the of
F ficials in this vicinity in the suppress
sion of the Illegal sale of liquor. but
the state has no grievance on this ac.
count in view of the fines which were
secured, amounting to several times the
money paid for detective services"

WOOD ARRESTED FOR
MURDER IN HENNIKER
Known to Have Had Grudge Against
Peaslee, Who Was Killed Fri
day Night.

HENNlKER, \. H.. May -. Eu- /
gene Wood, aged 40, who has been in /
the employ OF Walter Barnes. a farm. /
er, for Il number Of years. Is under ar !
rest on the charge OF murder of
Howard Peaslce on Friday night last. (
The arrest was made yesterday aft
ternoou after a long examination of
the suspect by Attorney General Tut
tie, who drove up from Manchester in
the morning, and County Solicitor Muir
chic. The examination was held behind
closed doors, and little knowledge has
leaked out Of what occurred at the
hearing.
Wood has been resident of Hcnui-
ker for about 20 years, the greater
part Of which time he has been in the
employ Of Barnes in various capacities.
1t is understood that he was cua-
incurred Of Barnes 5 daughter. Miss
Ida. and that he was intensely Jealous
of PcasIee, who had been calling at
the house for a long time.
1t has developed that when Peas
lee was at the Barnes house Wood
was always hanging about in the
shadow, which caused the family as
we'll as Peaslee great annoyance. At
one time, it is stated, that Miss Barnes.
as Peaslcc was leaving the house to
drive to his home. told him she did not
| like the actions of Wood.
| Peaslee recommended that he be
discharged. but Miss Barnes said that
she disiked to take such step, as il
| would cause a row.
1t is known that Peaslee was afraid
of Wood. and that IN incident which
occurred several weeks ago served to
| highten his fright At that time he
was driving home from a visit at the
Barnes house late in the evening and
when on a lonely part of road a
large rock, thrown with great force
missed hitting him in the head by q
matter Of inches only.
| This so disturbed Peaslec that he
told his son, Morrison. the next morn
ing that ii anything happened to hin
at any time or in any place the MAJ
responsible would be Wood.
The wording Of the note found he
side the shop the morning after tn,
murder furnished strong clew. Thi
has been held in secret by the authori
ties, and the published versions Of i
are incorrect. 1t was printed OF
heavy, coarse paper, with several o
the words misspelled, and was as fol
