PASTOR CHECKS FLAMES

Portsmouth N. H., April 27.-An at
tempt to destroy by fire the Church of
the Immaculate Conception was dis
covered and frustrated yesterday.
Three separate blazes were prepared
In the basement to spread the flames,
of which two attained headway and
one died out. lncendiarism was shown
in the latter instance, when oil-soaked
waste, newspapers saturated with kero-
sene and burned matches were found
The church, Roman Catholic edi-
flee OF brown stone and brick, is situ-
ated at Summer and Chatham streets.
Adjacent to 1t is the rectory. Rev.
d. Alexander Sullivan. the pastor, re-
turning from late call discovered the
fire, when the failure of the electric
lights and gas supply in the rectory
led him to waken T, 2. Regan, u. S.
n. chaplain and athletic officer at the
naval prison, who was his guest, to
trace out the cause.
They found blaze on the open floor
of the basement, In front of small
altar, htat had burned through two
layers of wood This was quickly
quenched, but smoke led them to an
other part of the basement, where fire
was found in a partition close to
gas meter. 1t had APPARENTLY been the
object of the incendiary to feed the
fire with gas from the feed pipe from
which it was flowing when the fire was
discovered.
After this b'aze had been extin.
guished, the priests searched further
and found in the boiler room oilsoaked
material for third fire. In ii were
two newspapers. one a foreign Ian
guage paper OF year ago the other
a Los Angeles newspaper printed in
English
Father Sullivan told the police that
he had no suspicion as to the incen.
diary. He said he thought he had
heard footsteps when he first entered
the church basement, hut he might
nave been mistaken. Fire officials ex-
press the opinion that the blazes had
been burning about half an hour when
discovered. The damage was not
great

Evidence Enabled States Attor-

tive in Adams
LEFT TELLTALE LETTERS

States Attorney Collins M. Graves
and Chief OF Police Patrick Brazell
were yesteray afternoon in Adams
where Edward w Gallagher, young
man who has been canvassing for the
Pictorial Review, is being held by
the Adams police on charge OK lar
ceny committed in this village.
From information gained by the pros
ecuting officer 1t appears that Gala
CHER made the acquaintance while here
of another young man, Arthur j. Vag-
neau, who has been acting as an agent
for a brush manufacturing company.
The pair shared room in the Brew
ster block for which Vagneau claims
he paid the rent.
Last Saturday night Gallagher dis
appeared and when his roommate arose
Sunday morning he found that foun-
tain pen, metal lead pencil and SIT
had likewise gone to parts unknown.
Vagneau made a complaint to the
states attorney who at once started
proceedings to run down the missing
Gallagher. From letters that came into
possession of the prosecuting officer
be concluded that Gal agher would be
located either in Schenectady, where
he formerly lived, or in Adams. By
communicating with the Adams police
Ga lagher was discovered at the home
of a young woman and was placed un-
der arrest
When the states attorney and Off,
Ger Brazell arrived at Adams yester-
day afternoon Gallagher had obtained
counsel and refused to waiv9 extradi-
ton He was held for hearing at the
Adams court this morning when Off
Ger Brazell was In attendance.
At this hearing Gallagher, who had
at first refused to waive extradition
proceedings, must have changed his
mind for he gave himself up to Chief
Brazell and accompanied by his al
torney Walter J, Donovan. came to
Bennington late this forenoon. He
appeared before Judge William J.
Meagher in municipal court and a
partial hearing was had with adjourn
ment to 2 o'clock this afternoon. At
noon it was understood that Gal
lagher would take an appeal from
the lower court.

LINDSAY RECITAL WINS
BENNINGTON AUDIENCE
Brilliant Poet Proves Himself Past
Master in Elocutionist's

The end OF perfect two-days' lit
erary banquet came to climax, Tues
day night, when Vachel Lindsay gave
his reading In the First Baptist church.
The recitations were delightfully."- pro.
longed over an almost two-hour ses-
sion, and the selections were as hap.
PLY chosen. In his recital Mr.. Lind
say demonstrated the truism uttered
by Longfellow, that next to writing
grand poem was to read it grandly
Mr.. Lindsay qualified well under the
Longfellow test He has a melodious
voice OF wide range, is master of the
elocut'onist's art and can rise, as the
occasion requires, to any demand Of
tragedy or comedy. In brief, Mr.
Lindsay is an accomplished actor.
Unlike most readers, Mr.. Lindsays
poetic menu was prepared from his
own writing. Tha the is a master poet
is acknowledged wherever his works
have been read. From the group of
his compositions served at Tuesday
evenings entertainment, few stood
out in bold relief. Among the latter
might be mentioned The Congo, Simon
Legree, The Two Crows and, last but
by no means least, the superb produc-
General William Booth Enters
Heaven. All were delivered with alb
solute perfection and produced a won
derful effect.
Professor Madison Bates Of the Burr
and Burton Seminary at Manchester
ofliciated as master of ceremon es, and
he distinguished himself by his in.
troductory remarks, which were keen
as they were brief.
BY Mr.. Llndsay's visit to the village,
Bennington has been distinctly bene.
fitted, hence the intellectual elements
.of the town owe debt OF gratitude to
the Poetry Discussion Club, through
whose activity the Lindsay engage
ment was made possible.
In reporting literary event of such
merit as that of Tuesday evening all
extraneous criticism should be aban
'doned, yet 1t does seem expedent to
say that the unusual worth of both
the program and the artist deserved
q larger audience. A more apprec.a-
tive one than that in attendance could
not be collected together.

Washington, April 27.-That the
United States in replying to Ger
manys counter proposals on repara-
tions would be guided almost If not
wholly by the decisions of the allied
governments as to whether the new
propositions put forward by Berlin
were of such nature as to form the
basis for further negotiations. was
clearly indicated by the course of
events here last night.
Secretary Hughes conferred with
each of the allied diplomatic repre-
sentatives. discussing with them
briefly the German communication,
which was received early in the day
from American Commissioner Dresel
at Berlin. The foreign ENJOYS imme-
diately reported to their governments
by cable, and it was understood that
the framing of reply to Germany
would await the outcome of these ex-
changes,
Should the entente chancelors de-
eide that the German proposals are
such as to merit consideration, Mr..
Hughes would inform the Berlin For
eign Office that he was transmitting
them, and negotiations then could be
expected to proceed. Should the Al
lies decide, however that the propo-
sitions were unacceptable as basis
for further discussion, Mr.. Hughes
would be expected TO inform Ger
many that -ha4a could. aot- isresent them.
1t would then remain for the Berlin
to come forward with
still another offer or submit to the
measures planned by the Allies for
the collection Of the indemnities
heretofore agreed upon by them.
