Stratton is the owner and occupant of the threo-story brick dwelling, 124 Gutes avenun, near Cambridge placo. Hs also owns other property worth be tween $200,000 and $100,000. He is 83 years old, of fine physical appearance, measuring an inch or two over six feet in stature. He has gray hair, muus- tache und side whiskers, and is noted for his decidedly military bearing. His eldest son is about 55 years of age, Five or six years ago Mr. Stratton’s wife died. Throe years ago the colonel, ns lie is familiarly called, murriod lignin. His wife was a woman of 35 years of ago. In January last Mrs. Stratton was taken sick with peritonitis. Dr. Cooper, of 235 Gatos avenue, wus called in to attend her. About a mouth ago he stopped calling at tlie house, and Dr. Rushmore, of Montague nnd Henry streets, hus since been attending her. Tho reason why Dr. Cooper ceased his professional calls was explained by him during a short conference lie had with Superintendent Campbell at police head quarters. The Doctor’! Story. The story told by Dr. Cooper to super- tendent Campbell was to the effect that Mrs. Stratton was not only suffering from peritonitis, hut also from lack of proper food and nursing. He said that lie found her alone In- the liouso, with no servants. Her sole attendant was her husband, and Dr. Cooper said he was by no means careful in administer ing to her. Tho rouson why tlie doctor ceased attending tho sick woman was because Mr. Stratton hail usked him what was the best way lie could get rid of her. He thought then it was a case for police investigation. Superintendent Campbell detailed Detective Sm eeani n..i-i - ■ tlie house; and there was no servant oi nurso to wait upon her, nnd that she was compelled to wait upon herself us best slio could. She Had to Make Droe.ee. Mrs. Stratton said that shortly after tlieir marriage her husband refused to furnish her any money, although he was well able to do so.

When she was taken sick tlio husband ordered the sister to leave the house, although tliore were no servants there and slio needed help. She told her husband that she required tho ser vices of a nurso to wait upon her, hut he replied tlint he would get a servant, who would do this as woll ns the house hold work. He did not do so, however. Mrs. Stratton showed Detective De- lahnnty her arm. He said it was mere ly skill nnd hone, nnd proved tho truth of the woman’s words that slio was starving. Nclghhore Toil Ilcr. Mrs. Stratton said she would have starved had it not been for the kindness of tlio neighbors, especially Mrs. Jed- win who lives in the adjoining house. Mrs!

Atlanta, Juno 16.—Tho Constitu- tion’s Washington special has the fol lowing about fourth class postmasters: Postmaster Goneral Bissell lias re scinded his order that no Republican postmasters should he removed Without charges being tiled against the incum bent. When the ruling was made, doubt •nd dismay were carried into the rank* or the senators nnd representatives. Then* is no law limiting the term of fourth class postmasters to four years, 1 hough that has been the rule hereto- fore adopted in all administrations.

Mr. Bissell inter posed the now ruling. Mr. Hipo argued tlio question. Finally, Mr. Bissell, who thought Mr. Sipo was a nowly elected congressman, with a quizzical and aggravating smile, inquired: "How long have you been a member of con gress?” “A d—d sight longer than you havo lieon postmuster genoral,” replied Mr, Bijie ungrily.
