Hartford, March 13.—Five oughbred horses, three of hunters, were burned in a fire which destroyed the large barn on the estate of ex-Senator Walter 1. Goodrich, Woodside, No. 1,204 Asylum avenue, early this morning with a loss of be- tween $30,000 and $40,000.

The blaze was spec- | tacular, lighting up the so that | it could be seen for miles around. | The blaze was discovered shortly | after 12 o’clock and an alarm was | turned in from Box 624, Asylum ave- | nue and Girard avenue. In the barn | were provided sleeping quarters for | C. Clark and his wife and two chil- dren, and James Mears and James Hynes, all help about the estate. The ! | last had a narrow escape, being burned on his face and hands in his | efforts to get the horses out in safe- ty. The Glenwood, Headlight and Simplicity. Two other thoreughbreds, Freedom and Sinbad, were also burned. IFiv other horses owned by Mr. Goodwin ! were not in the barn at the time. Six Carriages Destroyed. Besides the horses six carriages and a large amount of harness and gther aparatus was destroyed. The fire also threatened an ell in the rear of ! the barn, in which were stabled up to last Monday a number of valuable polo ponies. These ponies were shipped on that date to Aiken, S. C. | The firemen had to stretch hose over 250 yards, from Asylum avenue through the grounds to the north of the house. Sparks Set Fires, In the hollow below the stable the sparks, wafted to immense distances by the strong northerly wind, started | a number of grass fires which for a | time threatened to start a genuine | forest fire in the grove about the | grounds. Firemen with hand extin- guishers discovered the most serious of these just as it was creeping close to a handsome closed car which its owner had abandoned on the lawn. Just beyond the south end of the stable were hothouses and flower frames in which many rare and valu- able plants were houses. These the firemen paid little heed to in their endeavor to keep the larger blaze | from spreading, but a couple of gard- eners with small garden hose kept these wet and prevented any further ! destruction. Employes Employes tried while the firemen long lines of hose. It is the opinion that the fire started from an overheated stove kept in the saddle room in the center of the building. The blaze worked quickly to the south of the barn where the butler, his wife and their children had their sleeping quarters. The two stablemen were in the north end. They were awakened and ap- prised that something was wrong by the restless stamping and whinnying | of the horses. They ran to the door separating their quarters form the stalls, to be greeted by a burst of flame. Then they ran to the house and gave the alarm. | % ! hunting horses burned were | | Fight Fire. to fight the flames were stretching the ADMITS HE KEPT dl’IU)l.

New Haven, March 13.—With all of | the evidence which the United States ! officials have accumulated to show that | Wong Lin, alias* Lin Kee, proprietor | of the Shanghai Chinese Cafe on State street, Hartford, was engaged in the | manufacture and sale of opium at the time the restaurant was raided by the federal authorities last fall before the States district court, was adjourned until Monday morning at 11:30 o’clock by Judge Edwin S. Thomas. United States District Attorney Frederick A. Scott also summed up the case for the prosecution and all that remains is for Percy S. Bryant, the lawy for the defense, to present his sum- mary, followed by the rebuttal of the prosecution and Judge Thomas’ charge to the jury. Wong Lin, the accused Chinaman, vesterday admitted that he had kept opium in the store, but merely for his own use and not to sell. He declared that he had nothing to do with Room 3, where it is alleged the opium was made. He rented it, he said, to Charlie Sing, who has since disap- LAPLANDER CHASED, London, March 12, 2 P.

If it is admitted that Connecticut acted wisely in establishing formatory for first offenders of the male sex, then there can be no valid objection to the propc institution for women who come into conflict with the laws of the state. Jails are poor places to attempt reform. We have never heard of a single case wherean offender emerged from jail a better man than he went in. Jail influences are vicious. Many a young man has learned there habi of evil of which he ight have re- mained ignorant had not he come into contact in jail with others more a hardened in crime and with all taeir | moral faculties stunted. And this is even more true of girls who are making their debut into the offender class.

Instead of throwing them into influences worse than those to which they have been | accustomed, as a means of reform- ing them, the state should try to im- prove their environment, The re- formatory is a means to that end. The question of the state's finan- | cial condition should not influence the decision of the legislature in this matter, If the people of the state of famine, or if they were suffering from fire, flood or other disaster, the state would not hesitate to open the treasury to give them relief. The situation as to wom- | en offenders is comparable to this in | its seriousness. It is a real emer- | gency, none the less real because its | existence has been officially 1gnore(1‘ | | | | as for ure ned for a girls if se for many years. This is a proper expense for terity to share, Future will use reformatory of this as much as the present. It is classed with permanent improvements and | it is a proper matter to be provided for by a bond issue. If the present legislature for an institution of this kind be at least two yvears before it could | be completed and that will be by no | means too soon. If the present leg- islature postpones action the matter | will be delayed not merely two years | until the next legislature meets, but for such 4 period in addition as quired to construct the plant once provided for.
