Hhe petit jurors for the March term of Rutland county court, who have been discharged provisionally, tried 11 cases, an unusually small num ber. There were six criminal cases and the respondent was found guilty in each instance.

Arthur Gravelin, who lives near the Jones Bros, plant on North Main street, had a narrow escape from serious in juries on Granite street Saturday night, when he was thrown from the wagon which he occupied. Mr. Gravelin was standing in the wagon, when his horse became frightened and gave such a jump that the sole occupant pf the vehicle was thrown to the ground. Bystanders witnessed the affair and ran to Mr. Gravelin's help. A physician was sum moned from a nearby office and an ex amination showed that the man had been painfully injured on the right leg. He was removed to his home and was made to rest as comfortably as possible. It was stated today that an X-ray examination srvjld be necesary'to de termine the exact extent, of Mr. Grave lin's injuries.

City court cases which have been con tinued from time to time were cleaned up to the number of five this forenoon by Judge II. W. Scott and the prosecut ing oflicers. The case against the liquor seized at the home of Iragnutin Babiih of Ahem place last week was nol prossed and six bottles of beer taken by the oflicers at the time were ordered re- Just as Consolidated Company Was Remedying the Old. The tie-up in local manufacturing cir cles caused by the grounding of a wire in the Consolidated Lighting company's turbine at the Pioneer plant in Mont pelier last week was somewhat relieved this morning when all but eight of the twenty-six firms affected by the break down were allowed to resume operations, Electricians from Boston working with the company's local corps were engaged at the plant for several days and nights and late yesterday with a new turbine installed it was thought that plenty of power could be supplied to the Barre patrons'. Consequently this morning, every firm depending upon the Consolidated Co. for power resumed work, but fifteen min utes after the first whistle sounded at 7 o'clock, a small proportion of the twenty-six was deprived of power. Inves tigation of the trouble revealed a cracked valve in the piping at the Pioneer plant and owing to a resulting decrease in pressure, a part of the load which the wire were carrying was taken off. Lat er in the forenoon the condenser was connected with the Montpelier city pres sure and a force of men was set to re pairing the broken valve. At the Consolidated offices in this city in noon it was felt that all repairs to' the plant would be completed in time for a general resumption tomorrow morning. The new turbine and its connections were put into service before the com- negro boy near here lust Saturday. The men are Henry McC'abe, a Central Vermont railroad section foreman, James Sweeney and John Kenni-on, who worked under Foreman MVCabc, and two tramps. The authorities are said to be lookiiur for Henry Goodrich of Burlington, a woodchopper. It is alleged' that tho boy was beaten and thrown into the riv er because the men thought he had stol en their dinners. The arrests were made by Deputy Sheriff A. G. Stevens aftor one of tho men, Kennison, is said to have lot his nerve and, going to the deputy's 4iouse early Sunday morning, to have told the officer the whole story, declaring he couldn't sleep because of the affair. An investigation was begun yesterday morn ing, as a result of which" warrants were issued and the arrests made. Under ex amination by Deputy Sheriff Stevens and Deputy Sheriff Murphy, MeCabe is alleged to have wilted and to have told of the occurrence, although declaring that he himself had nothing to do with throwing the boy into the river, but admitting that he threw a stone into the river and told the other men to "throw the black in there." The boy was 1!) years old and was said to have been working on the dam construction in Essex. One feature that is troubling the authorities, inasmuch ai no body has been found, is that a negro youth was seen late Saturday making his way through Jonesville. The au thorities, clinging to the helief that the body of the beaten negro is in the riv er, declare the negro seen in Jonesville must have been a companion of the otner. A near as can be learned, the story of the occurrence started with the de parture of the railroad workmen from their lodging place to place known as the "ledges," where they placed their dinner pans in a little building near the track. At noon the men returned to the building for dinner and discov ered the pails were gone. They had to return to Bolton for their dinner. Go ing back to the work in th? afternoon they spied a negro boy in a mill wann ing himself. The boy disclaimed all knowledge of the theft and finally broke away from his captors. The men are al leged to have given chase and to have caught and beaten the boy. Several children 'are alleged to have been attracted by the sounds of the beating and to have seen the men tor turing the negro, after which the chil dren are alleged to have gone to Bol ton to enlist the services of grown men in stoping the torture. When the men went to the scene it is alleged they saw Goodrich on the bank of the river. Ad dressing McCabe, the foreman, as to the whereabouts of the negro, they are said to have been informed that" he'd "gone to Kalamazoo." Thinking that the boy had fled and escaped, the Bolton men returned, and nothing more was done about the ca-e till Kennison called at Deputy Sheriff Kennisott's early Sunday morning, rout ing the officer out of bed and tilling him the story which resulted in the ar rests made today. There are several features not explained as vet. chief of which is that no body has been found in the river. TO MEET IN BARRE. Protestant Episcopal Diocese of Ver mont Convention.
