Mrs, Barto gave the chief a package 8% inches long 3% Inches Wide’ and about five inches gave her husband in this city, Friday, representing that it contained 82 000 in green goods. Her husband. she said, paid $160 to the man because he was assured that the “money” could not be distinguished from the genuine. Something for Nothing. “You wanted to get something for nothing, didn’t you?" asked the chief. “Yes. sir,” ”And the man has all your savings?" “0h. m," Mrs. Barlo answered. "Frank got more yet." Chief Gunn opened the package and gound. that it contained the pages of a concordance. neatly cut in the size of an or money. “Th re was a cloth around It ” said Mrs. Barto. . ch“Where is it now?" inquired the let “Frank threw it ilwuy." she replied. “0h pshaw!” exclaimed the chief.

According to Mrs. Harte “the gentle- man“ first called on her husband two months ago. and afterwards made twa visits. He spoke in Barto's native tongue. 'and said he had all kinds of money. Before he breached the sub- ioctof green goods he offered to pay Mrs. llarto's expenses to and from the old country. He said that he lived seven miles from Hartford. When he explained what his business was and how easy it was to get rich, Barto fell into the net. He agreed to meet the man on Market street. near the police station, Friday noon. Lost a Day's Pay Too. Dario is employed as a grinder in a Collinsyille shop. To keep his ap- pointment with his "benefactor" he took' a day off. The man appeared somewhat excited when Barto an preached him, and said that he had ur- gent business out of town, "Here's your money," he said to Barto, after. receiving 3160.

Its duly as at present defined and under- stood by the commission will cease The cxeculhc work of the llthmian canal ionimlssion has been much sim- piiiicil by the retirement of Mr. Wei iuco as chief engineer. Previous to that limo lilt‘ duties of the commission as an executive body were distributed botwwn Chairman Shouts. Chief Engi ncor Wallace and Governor Magoon. Chairman Shouts having a general su- purvisioll of the work of the other commissioners. Wallace was a mem- ber of the commission, but when John F. Stevens was made his successor as chief engineer he was not made a member of the commission. but was onlploycd by Chairman Shouts. and the engineering and construction work is under the direct instead of the gen oral supervision of Chairman Shouts. Chief Engineer Stevens, unlike Mr. Wallace, is not a member of the ex- ecutive board of one commission. While the engineering work’bf the ow nal will be. under the immediate su- pervision of (‘Jlitli Stevens, he will he assisted by a rmnmittse on ansineer- lng. consisting of Generals llnlns and thrust.

The problems which will he submitted to the engineering commit» too will not be numerous until after the type of canal has been deter- mined, although it is expected that the board which is to meet today will avail itself of the advice of the engi- neering committee on ascent of the connection the latter have. had with the canal since the United States gov ernment took not! of the enterprise.
