There Is much talk of the possibility of escape from punishment on the part of those American prisoners when the new government takes hold. but so" far as can be ascertained there is no grounds for that talk except the usual doubt bout the quality of Spanish Rathbone particularly Is known to have made many friends among Cubans by his lavish expenditures of money. Official advices received by the post. cmce department this afternoon from thu director general of posts of Havana In dicate that Rathbsre Neely and Reeves who were sentenced yesterday to ten tars Imprisonment each and heavy lines as the result of the Cuban postomce frauds will appeal from their sentences to the supreme court of Cuba. the high- tribunal In the island.

Ex-Director General Rthbone however is believed to have been absolved front the charges as to trips and general personal expenditures.

PETS Her Dogs Lived In. Sumptuous Elegance While She LivedAlmost Like a Pauper She I Said To Be a Dog Mono- 4 maniac. Officer George Long arrived from Philadelphia yesterday afternoon to pt Mrs. Julia Eirdsall the woman who embezzled 515015 and he gives a very wonderful account of the way in which the woman spent the money she stole. Evsry dollar of it went on dogs.

Herdor lived like canine kings white she lived like a pauper. This explains why she was so much concerned bout the little dog site had with her In Atlanta. The story of her infatuation for dogs Is a remarkable one when read In connection with ler embezzlement of thousands of dol- ars from her employers. Officer Long says the warrant for Mrs. Birdsall was sworn out in Philadelphia ast May and for nearly a year the authorities were trying to locate her.

They knew of her love for dogs and they ulU. rnately hoped through that agency to catch her. and their calculations proved correct for It was a pet dog that led to her arrest in Atlanta. Mrs. flirdeall secured the money which she stole by raising checks.

She used acid with which she obliterated the figures on the checks signed by the firm of Bsrnsttjo. KautmAn Co. and then inserted other figures for larger amounts. Some of the checks were raised from 151 to 10110. The firm had Implicit confidence in her as she appeared to live the most economical style.

They never suspected while she was dressing In cheap clothes and eating common food that she was clothing her dogs in velvet and satin and feeding them on the fat of the land. Row Rev Dogs Lived. Officer Long stated to a reporter of The Constitution last night that he believed the woman was a monomaniac about dogs She had a costly cottage at Melville. W. 4.

seven miles front Philadelphia said. and there she had a tot of the Quest dogs. Her don must have been worth In the neighborhood or 00000. She. kept t1iem In rooms and made theta sleep She.

had two servants kkep the houi whom' she paid' 13 a week he same amount as her own- salary. She- also had sT white man. a barber named Duff whotnlllhe palda handsome salary- to wash her dogs' and trim and comb their hair. The dogs wet' dressed In silk and velvet robes and wore gum boots made to order when they went. out to walk In damp weather.

The little dogs were ridden In small coaches handsomely fitted up. Gas stoves warmed the rooms In winter and once every day she had her pets bathed In costly bathtubs. She had a. dog cemetery in which she burled tint dogs that died and over them she erected marble tombstones. Au the money she stole went on the dogs.

Whit they were living In such sumptuous style she was eating flve-ent lunches and dressing In the cheapest of garments. No one ever suspected her of having a dog- family and it was not known until after her embezzlement was discovered and site had run away. Site carried a few of her dogs with her and sold some of them to get mon while hiding from the officers. I understand he sold one bun dog for several hundred dollars. She Is altogether one of the queerest characters in the way of a criminal we had to dtal with.

Officer Long will leave for Philadelphia with his prisoner today at 12:50 o'clock. She has signed a paper agreeing to accompany him and promising not to give him any trouble. Ithas not been decided yet whether or not she will be allowed to take her Maltese dog with her. ts On That Date Uniled i Will Turn the Island to Halim ALL.
