GRAHAM TRIAL
GOES TO JAN. 20
Attorney : General Archi-
bald Asked for a Con-
tinuance To-day
IMPORTANT WITNESS
COULDN'T BE PRESENT
The Respondent Warmly
Greeted by His Many
Friends To-day

The case of State VS.. II r. Graham
charged with embezzlement and larceny
from the state of Vermont, will not be
commenced until o o'clock Jan. 90 ac-
cording to an order made in Washing
ton county court this morning, after
Attorney General f. c. Archibald and
X. f. Brown had spoken on the matter
As has been stated heretofore, it was
expected that the attorney general
would ask for continuance of the case
on the ground that his principal wit
ness, F. S. Pratt of Brattleboro, could
not be present.
When court convened to-day Judge
H. NJ. Butler inquired relative TO the
case of State vs.. Graham, which was
set for trial to-day. Mr.. Archibald
took the floor and explained that he
had expected TO be ready, having been
informed that Mr.. Pratt would be pres
ent, but he found last week that Mr.
Pratt would be engaged in another trial
in New York, so that he could not be
here until next week at least and Mr.
Archibald added that Judge Stanton
has advised him to be ready to try
homicide case in Burlington the week
| following Dec. 90, after which the at
torney general appears in an adultery
case in that court, and he has also been
advised that special grand jury has
been called in that county TO inyesti-
gate another homicide matter, so that
he could not do much with the Graham
trial until about the first of the year.
Judge Butler then suggested that he
| expected two weeks work in Orange
county in January. Mr.. Brown stated
that continuance would be agreeable To
the respondent
The court continued that w. B. c.
Stiekney, one of the defending attor-
neys, had written him, asking for a
continuance on the grounds that he was
away and could not be here this week
but that the court declined to continue
the case at that time, because he did
not think the request should be grant
ed after so much delay had occurred,
and that he wanted 20 clean il up this
term and not allow the case 10 90 into
| the March term of court, for both sides
were entitled TO have it tried now
Now, however, situation had arisen
and Mr. Archibald assured the court
that if he could not have Mr.. Pratt at
the date to be fixed by the court, the
state would be ready by the engaging
of another accountant. The court then
discussed whether TO set the date for
Jan. ~, which is Monday, or the fol-
lowing day, and the latter was de-
cided upon.
Following this decision that the case
would be commenced Jan. 20, the court
stated that it wanted to clean up all
the rest of the criminal docket before
the jury had been allowed to 60.
Mr.. Graham was in court this morn
| ing ready for trial lie was greeted
warmly by many friends,

MONEY is INVOLVED
In Divorce Case Heard in Washington
County Court.

Ihe testimony in the case of Clara
Stevens VS.. Howard Stevens was heard
in Washington county court Tuesday
afternoon The petitioner was on the
stand for a short time, telling of the
trouble she had in an effort to live with
her husband. Then followed the peti
tionee's brother who explained relat \
to mortgage notes, after which the "
titled copy Of the records in Chit'1Ns n
county court, in which the pl.< ace
IS recorded in proceeding, were given
to the court. The petitioner asked for
the property which was held jointly
after certain obligations are paid off in
the form of notes. This will give her
about 1900 but she has asked for the
care and custody of five children and
the sum of money is not large when
this is considered.
The evidence which was introduced
in the case of G. Fl. Eddy VS.. Edith
Eddy produced the contents of letter
read to the court to which were at
tached 26 kisses. A man named Rob
inson appeared in the case, according
to some of the testimony. The letter
had to do with Mrs. Eddy's meeting a
man in Burlington. Adultery is set up
as the claim for a divorce.

der of non-suit was struck off and the

PHYSICIANS FINED.
Two in Burlington Asked to Pay $500
Each for Violation of Drug Laws.

Burlington, Nov. l9.-The internal
revenue bureau upon which deyolyes
the enforcement of the anti-narcotic
law IS now levying more severe pen
alties than those imposed in Vermont
at any other time since the law went
into operation. Interpretation of the
law has become so strict that many
physicians have announced their in
tentions of not renewing their licenses
to handle opium and druggists are
showing the same disposition.
As the result Of the arrest for va
grancy Of two men, one in Massa-
chusetts and the other in New Hamp-
shire some time ago, two Burlington
physicians are being asked to pay $500
for writing prescriptions which contain
drugs and one druggist in this city has
also paid $3.50 in settlement of his case
for filing prescriptions, 1t was evil
dent in all three cases that there was
no malicious intention to evade the
law and it was plainly evident that
the violation was not made for gain.

most excellent showing, an eXtraordi-
nary showing when it is considered
that very large percentage of the
large subscriptions, in fact nearly all
were previously obtained at the meet
/ ing at the st. Johnsbury House Sun
day night. st. Johnsbury women are
certainly to be congratulated on this
splendid result of their work.
