ANONYMOUS LETTERS.
WOMAN ACCUSED. By Telegraph— Press Association—Copyright. Australian and N.Z. Cable Association. BARIS, January 24. After a handwriting expert had examined th© 200 anonymous letters re ceived in the town of Tull© and compelled eight suspected women to writ© passages dictated from letters, he concluded that Mladam Laval, sister of a police official, wrote most of th© letters. Madam Laval has now' disappeared. (A reign of terror was established in the town of Tulle, owing to wholesale anonymous letters. At least a hundred letters, signed “ Th© Tiger** Eye,” were pushed under the doors of houses, making serious charges against husbands and wives. It was stated that in some cases so circumstantial were the details that homes were wrecked and two men bad gone mad. Big rewards were offered and special detectives engaged but they had up till then failed to trace th© writers).
