Remains in Chicago. G. W. W. Hangar, third member of the board, remained in Chicago to look after possible developments, though none are expected. If the president cannot persuada the employes to arbitrate a strike will be called Wednesday or Thursday, it is said. In addition to the engineers and firemen, 100,000 oilers and wipers and other railroad employes may be involved indirectly. Futility Was Realized: Mr. Hanger asserted last night that after the board had met separately with the employes and employers for three days the futility of a ‘“settle- ment” by meiation was realize. The commissioners continued to meet with the committee seven days more in the hope of finding some grounds which the men would agree to arbi- trate. Hope, he said, was abandoned Wednesday and the mediators noti- on | fied President Wilson of the situation. | The president immediately invited the factions to Washington to meet with him. ‘Would Paralyze Traflic. About ninety per cent. of.the engine crews voted to strike when the ballot was taken recently. Their leaders de- : Saturday | [E SPECIALS AT THE | them would obey the order to strike and that steam traflic west of Chicago would be paralyzed. With the railroads facing the move- ment of the largest agricultural yield of vears a strike at this time would be unusually unfortunate, the media- tors felt, and they asked the president to intervene.

Wakefleld of Middlebury, convicted by a jury last night of mur- der in the second degree in partici- rating in the killing of her husband, William O. Wakefield, at Cheshire, on June 23, 1913, was sentenced to state prison for the rest of her natural life by Judge Reed of the superior court today. The sentence was in con- formity to the law. Her senior coun- sel, Thomas F. Devine of Waterbury, in addressing the court before sen- tence was pronounced moved to set aside the verdict on the grounds that it was against the evidence. The form of the motion was not acceptable to the court and counsel was given op- portunity to present it in different verbiage, which was done. State’s At- terney Alling demurred to the motion. The court overruled the motion with- out passing upon the demurrer. Asa preface to the sentence Judge Reed made a brief review of the case from manuscript during which he said that Mrs. Wakefleld had had an absolutely had been safeguarded at every point, and that the verdict of the jury was a just one. On Point of Collapse. Mrs. Wakefleld was on the point of | collapse during the session and was | unable to stand when Judge Reed gave her sentence. The reason why Mr. Devine was asked to change the wording of his motion was its non-compliance with the form prescribed in the practice act. Attorneys Hold Conference. The opening of court was delayed while the attorneys in the case had | a conference. Mrs. Wakefield sat | with her father, and cried audibly throughout the session. The court | did not ask her to stand when at! 11:12 he gave the sentence. Judge Reed read a prepared state- ment, saying in substance that the prisoner had had every advantage in the matter of defense, and that al- though the jury might have returned a verdict of murder in the first de- gree, they had given her the benefit of a doubt, and that he was “glad | they did.” He characterized the conduct of Mrs. Wakefleld on the night preceding the murder, when James Plew, who has been hanged as the actual slayer, and her husband quarreled, as unnatural and not that | Live Native Spring Ducks, Home Dressed Broil- ers, Home Dressed Fowl, Fancy Native Veal, Calves’ Liver, Genuirie Spring Lamb, Sweet Breads.

Judge Pronounces Sentence. Amid the deepest silence Judge Reed asked Mr. Devine if he wished to be heard further, and after re- celving a negative answer, said: “The sentence of the law is that you, Bessie J. Wakefleld, be impri- soned in the state prison for the rest of your natural life.” The prisoner was almost in a state of physical collapse when led from the court room, supported on one side by Deputy Sheriff Bradley and on the other by her father. It is expected that Mrs. Wakefield will be taken to Wethersfield either this afternoon or tomorrow. DROPS DEAD IN STREET.
