Continued from rage ID

around and undertook to get Parker away
from him.
Sheriff Wellman had gone to the supper
as patron without anticipating trouble
and was unarmed, but his son, Clarence,
was with him, and Constable Charles
Laughton of Dummerston were there and
assisted. The crowd was so dense, how
ever, that some of them got near enough
to aim blows at the officer, breaking his
glasses. Others let the air out of some
of his automobile tires and put sand in
the gasoline tank.
Things got so hot that a telephone mes
sage was sent to Brattleboro for help and
States Attorney f. w. Gibson, Police
man Ellis G. WGrden, Deputy Sheriff
Fred Cressy and Deputy Sheriff George
Z. Alexander of SaxtOns River, who was
here on business, responded to the call,
reaching the scene of the trouble about
$50 o'clock.
On their arrival some of the young men
We're on top of Clarence Wellman, who
had undertaken to unlock some leg irons
which were in the car, so that his father
could use them. The bunch started to
run when the officers came, and as Dep
uty Sheriff Cressy was chasing one of
them a Greenfield young man who said
his name was Snyder stepped out from
beside his car and grabbed Mr. Cressy,
who at once put him under arrest and
turned him over to Policeman Worden.
BY this time the man whom Deputy
Sheriff Cressy was after had disap-
peared. .
Parker and Snyder were brought
here, but only Parker was locked up, Man
ming being released on the promise of
Police Chief Manning of Greenfield that
he would have the respondent in court
here today.
Before the trouble started Sheriff Well
man discovered that overcoats belonging
himself nf oil
had been stolen from his car. He began
searching other cars to get trace of the
missing articles and found 10 drunks
slowed away in automobiles.

Governor Cox made public today let
ter from Herbert c. Spiller of Dayton, a
veteran of the World war, contributing
money to be used ''in distributing copies
of the covenant of the league of nations. .
The Governors reply said. ct is a sad
commentary of human nature that the
boys who offered their lives to end the
war for all time must still carry on the
fight to see that our pledge is kept.
Those who have an opportunity to read
the covenant will understand it and
when they understand it they will help
vote for it =

RUMoR IN GRAHAM CASE.
Story that Exceptions VIII be Waived
and Motion Made for Sentence.

MONTPELIER. Oct. %. - A report
was in circulation yesterday that when
ex-Gov Graham's case is reached in su-
preme court next week the exceptions
will be waived and motion made for
sentence An attempt was made to verify
this report through Gov. Graham's coun--
sci. Hale X. Darling in Chelsea, and
States Attorney Davis.
Mr.. Darling said he had no statement
to make beyond saying that he expected
the Graham case would be disposed of
at the November term. .
States Attorney Davis said he knew
something about the Graham matter, but
had no statement to make.
The belief is expressed that counsel
for the defense have indicated to counsel
for the prosecution what course will be
pursued. At the October term, a peu,
tion for new trial was filed by counsel
for Ex-Governor Graham on the grounds
that Northfield juror had expressed
an opinion before drawn on the jury
