STOCK.AND PRODUCE REPORT. The following Quotations of the leading Connecticut Man Accused of Breach of Trust Arrested This Morning In Waterbury. Edgar M. Glossey, of Wiusted, was arrested at Waterbury this morning br Sheriff Graves on the charge of hav ing embewsled I2.51M from the estate of Louisa M. Gillette, of Wlnsted, or.

which he was the administrator. Glossey has been stopping in Waterbury for six weeks at the home of William bis brother, of Rlcker Mountain. He left Wlnsted when pertinent inquiries were being made about the money left in his charge for the estate. When Glossey saw the officers coming this morning he attempted to escape by running out the back way. He was fol lowed by Sheriff Oaves who sprained on ankle running after him.

Kellis to this city last night to brlug Glossey back. The money which Clossey is charged with having appropriated to his own use was left in cash by Mrs. Gilette. When inquiries were made in court he gave evasive answers. His crookedness was not found out until it had been learned that he had made false statements in tbe probate court as to where the intrusted money was placed.

He claimed it was in a certain bank. On investigation it was found that not one cent of the money was In that institution. He was then pressed hard and left town. He departed from Wlnsted about six weeks ago. He was a communicant of the Second Congregational society in that place.

He went around among the members of the organization after the Sunday services and borrowed small amounts, enough to enable him to leave town. Two weeks ago Sheriff Collins received a letter from Sheriff Kellis, of Wlnsted, asking about a one-armed man, who, he believed, was in Waterbury. Deputy Sheriff Graves, of Waterbury, remembered seeing such a man there, and word was sent to Wlnsted, which brought the sheriff and Clossey's former partner on the train which arrived here at 3 o'clock this morning. Tbe papers were placed In Sheriff Graves' hands this morning, and he went to Waterbury. After Graves captured bis man his foot pained him so that he could not return to the city, but intrusted him to Liveryman H.

C. Welsh. Clossey was Interviewed by the Connecticut sheriff immediately on his commitment to county jail at 8 o'clock this 'afternoon. He stated his willingness to return to Connecticut without going totbetrou ble of securing extradition papers. Clossey has been on tbe shifting sands, both politically and religiously.

He was formerly a Catholic, and later joined the Congregational society, as he also changed from the Democratic to Republican faith. He was a justice of peace. He left Connecticut by riding to New Boston in a team and from there to West-field, where he boarded a train for Northampton, coming from that city to Waterbury. In addition to the charge of embezzlement he may also be arraigned for perjury. MONTPELIER AND VICINITY.

Until the safe now buried In the cellar under tons of debris Is removed and the books examined it will not be known how many perished.

The estimates of the dead, which run up to 25. may ba cut down as the men report for duty or to the police. It is known that 60 did not show up at the mines, though many of tbese doubtless are with friends, recovering from their fright. The lire stnrud In the basement and was soon beyond control. The halls were Ailed with smoke, and It was Impossible for many to have escaped that way.

The escapes were mostly In the rear ot the building, and these were usod hy the men who could reaoh them. Those In front, however, crowded to the window. Many of these were taken out by means of ladders put up by the firemen. Others Jumped and were more or less Injured.

A PENNSYLVANIA PRACTICE. Norristown, March 22. The trial of James A.

Considerable difficulty is experienced by the carriers in the delivery of mail, particularly on.Prospect, Berlin and North fluid streets on Berlin side, by reason of the lack of system in numbering these streets, they having been numbered years ago without any regular system, so that with the building up of the past few years, iu many cases where the numbers do not me in proper rotation, half numbers are used, and sometimes two duplicate numbers ou one street and many of the houses are not numbered at at. This annoyance has Increased to he extent 'that Postmaster' A.

J. Sibley authorizes the statement, that uuless the residents of that side of the river care enough for the free delivery they are now enjoying to have these streets properly bered so as to remove the annoyance now existing, he will be obliged to recommend to the department a discont inuance of the free delivery. From this, ItrwttuKl seem as if our neighbors across the river would do well to get-together and have these st rents properly numbered, particularly as the expense would be very slight for the benefits received.

The Dog Is a Nuisance, But Gauthier Is Under Arrest. City Sheriff Charles DeF. Bancroft served papers on George Gauthier last even ing. Before Justice E. Smilie at 7 o'clock he pleaded not guilty to having committed a breach of the peace.

Gauthier was arrested at the instigation of Mrs. Tolini Passra. The trouble was caused by a dog. Mrs. Passra owns a big bow wow.

Gauthier, who is employed by the Consolidated Lighting company car ing for the street -lamps, has occasion daily Jo pass the house where Passra's lives. Gautheirclaims that on several occasions be has had narrow escapes from leaving the seat of his trousers in the dog's jaws. Yesterday he loaded his pockets with stones so as to be prepared if the animal came for him. It appeared on the scene. It ran for him.

Then the bombardment commenced. It was so fierce it brought out Passra, and she started for Gauthier. He claims that he ran when be saw her coming. She claims he pulled out a revolver from his pocket and pointedit straight at her, and she has several friends to prove the trnth of what she claims. It is the general belief that the dog is a nuisance.
