THREE "TRAIIPS" CONCERNED. An Old Haa Who Is Incarcerated 'on tbe Charge of Intoxication Tells of the Plot -Is It True or Ghost Story. What might have been a jail delivery was disclosed this morning. Tho transaction was given away by an honest old farmer, who was arrested Saturday and placed in jail on the charge of intoxication. The man's name is Matthew Hogcncamp.

He came to this city from "Waverly with tho intention of visiting a relative, who resides in the country. not far from JMtmra. ihe old man statement was given to the police this morning. He stated that he knew of soma thing that was going on in the jail but he did not want to tell of it, but upon being pressed he finally con sented to p-ive tin what information he had. IT.

The description the farmer gives of the men concerned in the plot tallies with that of the tramps who held up the freight train near Eldridge lake, and who are believed to be the same men wh.0 were in a shooting affray at Bingbam- ton last summer.

AVhatever the differences ara, that exist between Messrs Fassett and Wright, they have evidently reached a result Just what those differences are, is the subject of much speculation and comment at the present time.
