IS GEN. FAULKNER ALIVE?

A Startling Rumor Regarding the Dansville Bank Wrecker

Albany, Mar. 18 - The Evening Journal publishes a story this evening to the effect that Lester B. FAULKNER, the wrecker of the Dansville bank, supposed to have died January 27th, is still living in Mexico. He availed himself of the death of his gardener to have the body buried as his own, and then quietly left the country. The Journal got the story from a United States Court official, who says it is true and the matter will be investigated at Utica at the meeting of the court.

The story current as told a Journal reporter is to the effect that Lester B. FAULKNER is still in the land of the living, and enjoying both liberty and life in Mexico. He availed himself, it is said, of the opportunity of the death of his gardener, to have the body buried as his own, while he, in perfect disguise, was speeding away from home and friends, to become an exile in a foreign country. It is said that the government officers have become aware of the cheat and at the present term of the court in Utica, which convened to-day, will proceed against FAULKNER's bondsmen for the amount of their bonds.

HE DON'T BELIEVE THE STORY

Utica, March 18 - Colonel D. S. ALEXANDER, United States district attorney, was first informed of the Albany story that Lester B. FAULKNER is alive and in Mexico, to-night. He does not believe it and says that he received the details of FAULKNER's death from Dr. BACON, of Dansville, in whose house FAULKNER died. He also says that the indictments against the banker still stand, no order of nolle prose-qui having been entered in regard to them. FAULKNER's bond of $30, 000 has not been canceled. No credence is given to the story here.

SAFE IN JAIL

Charles J. Rieger Will Not Go to Germany Just Now

In a white house down on the Wakelee Farm, at No. 36 Third street, for a long time lived Charles J. RIEGER, his wife and family. Their home was far from peaceful, and from the affidavits of Mrs. RIEGER and the neighbors, the quietness of home life was often disturbed by Charles, whose temper controls him. Trouble brewed from the first week of wedded life, and continued until a few months ago when Mrs. RIEGER left her unamiable spouse in solitude, to grumble at himself.

The RIEGER family consisted of six children, RIEGER, Sr., being a tailor. He did work for the large clothing manufacturers, and at time employed considerable help. He was stingy and save up his earnings, being at the present time worth about $7,000 - at least Mrs. RIEGER says so.

Yesterday Justice ADAMS issued an order of arrest and an injunction restraining RIEGER from disposing of his money and property, as Mrs. RIEGER, as plaintiff, demanded maintenance, and had reasons to believe that RIEGER intended to return to Germany, he having drawn a large sum of money from the bank. The papers were given the sheriff, and Deputies HAWLEY and SALYERDS went to the house and placed RIEGER under arrest. He denied having any money in the house and was taken to jail and locked up.

After being in jail an hour or so, he told Jailor CAWTHRA that there was a large amount of money hidden in a trunk in the house. Deputies HAWLEY and SALYERDS went to the house again and found RIEGER's son and two other men there. They found the trunk and in it $2,155, which sum was taken in charge by the sheriff. The order of arrest calls for a bail bond of $1,000. RIEGER says he cannot give such a bond, and will no doubt be in jail until he does.

The retirement of F. B. MERRILL as manager of the Canandaigua Lake Steamboat Company is sincerely regretted. By hustling hard work he boomed Canandaigua Lake last season more than it had been in the ten previous years.

He also induced them to issue through tickets from any point along their lines to any point on the lake. This arrangement brought to the lake more excursion parties than under the old system, and proved to be a very excellent means of advertising the beauties of the "gem of the inland lakes."

The Mysterious Disappearance f Harvey Johnson Finally Accounted For.

The body of Harvey JOHNSON, who had been missing nearly two weeks, was found yesterday morning in the canal about one-half mile west of Albion. It was in an erect position, floating about eight feet from the tow-path, and was in a good state of preservation. Mr. POWELL and Amos CLIFT, passing by, discovered the body and secured it until the coroner be notified. The Democrat and Chronicle at the time of JOHNSON's disappearance contained a statement of the attending circumstances. He and a companion drove into a ditch in the night and JOHNSON alighted and started for a lantern, and had never been seen since. The canal had been so thoroughly dragged that it was thought impossible for JOHNSON to have fallen into it, yet his body was found not more than a half mile from where he probably fell in.
