ARRESTED IN ITALY.
Two Suspects in Murder of Henry Ward
at New Haven.

Vergennes, April 1.-Two Italians
were arrested in Italy Tuesday who are
believed to have murdered and robbed
Henry Ward, well known resident OF
New Haven, on the night of Dec. IL,
1912. Information Of the arrests was
received yesterday by States Attorney
Tuttle from representatives of the Wood
Morgan detective agency who with Tut
tie have been instrumental in bringing
the two alleged murderers to Justice.
The prisoners are Guiseppi and Clio.
vanni Colombo. formerly employed by
the Rutland railroad as section hands be-
tween Salisbury and Burlington.
Mr.. Ward, who was murdered lived
alone a short distance from the railroad
station at New Haven and was reported
to have between $4,000 and $1,000 about
his person.
States Attorney Tuttle, who has been
at work on the case-for long time, re-
ceived information two months ago that
the Italian laborers at work for the rail-
road were talking about the Colombo
brothers having so much money when
they went away from the place. This
started an investigation by the official
in which the following facts were gained.
II was found that the two men had
worked on the road just before the muir

loney was the petitioners attorney.
In the case of George Il. Lawrence VS..

sour Wrecked Diplom ccy."

The current Outlook discusses the de-
moralization Of our diplomatic service in
an article written by San American Di-
pdomat," who manifestly knows what he
writes about. In setting forth just what
the functions OF our diplomatic service are,
he clears away the widespread regard of
it as system of frills and furbelows,
something purely ornamental, that may
properly be employed for the payment
of political debts.
A most admirable reorganization OF
the service has been in progress for the
last ten years. It has been bearing
splendid fruit The service, reconsti-
tuted upon business principles, had be-
gun to inspire corresponding respect
abroad. Young men had been encour-
aged to enter it after examination and
Systematically work their way up, ac-
cording to merit, the highest posts as
ultimate goals. We had made good pro-
gress toward a corps of trained diplo-
mats, of invaluable account in our deal
ings with other nations.
The service had practically been taken
out OF partisan politics. 1t was efficient
ly performing its true functions; per-
manent corps maintained at foreign gov
ermment's business with other govern
ments to supervise the rights and inter
ests of our country in those countries
and. with the equipment of experience
and acquaintance with language, law and
usage there, to create a continuous at
mosphere of Cancellation, good feeling
and friendly relations, in which interna-
tional Misunderstanding can readily be
avoided or dispelled."
Mr.. Bryan, a professional spokesman,
is not particularly to blame He knows
no better, and the president is respon-
sible for him. The Outlook writer adds:
mir. Wilson has bought the Bryan-con-
trolled votes of Congress with the pat
ronage which he has turned over to the
secretary of state. If the president has
thus secured the legislation which he
desired to have enacted, he has bought
it with tainted money" Boston Herald.

der and had resided in New Haven dur
ing the preceding year
For some two OF three months before
the crime they had lived in Burlington.
The night before they left the city and
did not return until the day after.
Previous to the murder the two men
had been hard up, but afterward it APP
pears they paid up number of bills in
Burlington and then went to New York
City, purchasing tickets for Havre,
France, en- route to Italy, arriving at
their home in Pozzalo Dec. 27. Shortly
after which they purchased a lot Of real
estate.
The men will be tried in Italy, and
States Attorney Tuttle will send over
the affidavits setting up the circum-
stances of the crime and the evidence
against the Italians.
