the charge of adultery and lodged the

also have Mrs. Rose Pelky of Granite

her condition with the restraint over. She
told a story last week relative to seeing
Mrs. Broadwell at the Mrs. Belle Parker
house the night of the murder, but after
she told the story and when the officers
wanted her again they were unable to To-
cate her. It Is understood that like Mar
tinez she has been in Massachusetts since
she left Graniteville.

MAY Be VALUABLE WITNESSES
Mrs. Pelky and Martinez Admit Being
at Parker House Night Of
BroadSve1l Murder

Montpelier, May 19.---Mrs. Rose
Pelky who was arrested Monday morn
ing, was brought into Barre city court
on the charge of adultery, to which
she pleaded guilty and was given a
sentence of two years in the House of
Correction, after which she was
placed on probation. II was expected
that Francisco Martinez would be
brought into Barre city court during
the day on similar charge, but up to
late hour In the afternoon this had
not taken place. Martinez is named as
the correspondent in the case against
Mrs. Pelky. 1t is alleged the crime
took place at the Parker house the
night of May 3. which was the night
that Mrs. Broadwell was murdered.
Mrs Pelky Is the mother of four
children, it ia said. Martinez has been
employed as quarryman in Granite
vile and it is alleged that he and
Mrs. Pelky have been together dur
ing the time they have been gone
from Barre. Both are considered i'm
portant witnesses to the State and 1t
is understood that much valuable in.
formation was obtained from them.
Little of note took place during the
latter part of the day and this eve
ming there was but little change in the
case. The States attorney has ask ed
Judge F. l.. Fish not to adjourn court
for a while, but he has not asked for
the calling of a grand jury.
It Is understood that the date of the
hearing on the charge against Fran
cisco Martinez is uncertain, which in
dicates that he may be a principal
witness in the case. Mrs. Rose Pelky,
who has been placed on probation. is
still held as an important witness. She
| is 81 years OF age. Martinez says he
| left the Parker residence at $3.50
| o'clock the night of the murder and
| that he Knows little about the hap
penings at the place. Mrs. Grace

some days. has gone back to Lynn,
Mass, but the authorities know where

To-day has been largely spent in
investigating robberies that have

career of Long has been raked with a

Some erticies that were taken from
these places including clothing has been

information that he bought a fish rod
of Long. This came from Reynolds
| camp on Perrin Pond. Other minor
| robberies that have taken place in
Barre IN the last few months have
also been under investigation. 1t is
also reported that the authorities are

was assaulted about a year ago on a
lonely road leading out of Montpelier,
