This is the first instance for some s, announced appearance had order of the mili- |t Vienna Newspaper Says We Aim to Annex Central America Vienna, Tuesday, June 27, via Ber- lin, June 28 and London, 12:30 p. m. —The Tageblatt, the first Austrian newspaper to comment on the Mexi- can situation, expresses the opinion that the United States is committed irretrievably to an imperialistic policy which aims at the annexation not only of Mexico but of all Central America. It regards the present situation as merely the logical outcome of the imperialistic policy which, it says, was begun under the Cleveland adminis- tration and to which the United States became wedded by the Spanish-Amer- ican war. The Tageblatt suggests that the unrest in Mexico since the Diaz re- gime has been fomented secretly by American money in order to create a situation which appears to warrant interference, ostensibly in the interest of peace. To whatever causes the succession of revolutions may be traceable, says the Tageblatt, the American policy in any event is little short of “a bouquet of poisoned flowers” for President Wilson at this time, handed to him just at the mo- ment he desired to begin his cam- paign. ®The newspaper gives the president credit for desiring to main- tain peace. The whole situation, the Tageblatt continues, may mean the inaugura- tion of a doctrine.to parallel the Monroe Doctrine, ™ namely: “Latin- America for Latin-Americans.” Having establish#d, as it believes, the existence of an gverwhelming im- perialistic and annexationist policy in the United States, the Tageblatt pro- ds to criticise it severely—not be- ause it is wrong but because the United States is unprepared for war and because typical American haste in this case has become premature precipitation. Regarding Presldent Wilson, Tageblatt says in conclusion: “The professor of great and good ideas and his country are about to be gravely disappointed. He believed possible to make Mexico his prey by peaceable means. Now he stands in danger of an incalculable war. Who knows whether it can be pre- vented ?*" the WOMAN KILLED BY GAS.

Bears the fignature of LAWYER FOR MASONS ATHEARING OF WILL Court May Decide Claims of Neal’s Relatives Tomorrow ESTATE WITHOUT A LAWYER Executor Named in Document Does Not Believe Counsel Necessary—Ex- pects Will to Be Admitted—Few Ap- plications Made—Other Matters. That there will be no lawyers to represent the estate at the hearing to be held in the probate court tomorrow concerning the validity of the will of Judge Frank S. Neal was the state- ment made today by A. H. Condell, representing the Plainville Trust com- pany, the executor named in the doc- ument Officars of the bank believe that there is not a chance of breaking the will, and they do not propose to burden the estate with any unneces- sary expense. Consequently counsel hsa not been engaged. Attorney Wallace Moyle of New Ha- ven, yesterday entered an appearance in the case as counsel for the Ma- sonic Charity Foundation, which is named as one of the beneficiaries of the will. Other heirs are not expected to be represented by lawyers. The Masons under the terms of the will, are to receive the residue of the estate after bills are paid and the other legacies distributed. As any ex- pense entailed in preventing a break- ing of the will will fall on the estate, thereby reducing the value of the resi- due, officers of the foundation be- lieved it would be well to have a lawyer look after their interests. Attorney P. F. McDonough of New Britain, will appear in the interests of Henry Neal and Albert Bradley, first cousins of Judge Neal, who were not remembered in the will and who are expected to contest its admission. Representatives of the trust com- pany claim they have no idea as to what grounds the disappointed rela- tives hope to advance as proof of the illegality of the wlil They declare that the document itself will show the men- tal condition of the testator to be per- fectly sound and they claim to have plenty of proof that it was properly signed and witnessed. Chief among the witnesses for the executors will be Dr. J. C. Tanner, Judge Neal's physician and one of the signers of the will, George D. Mastin and George Fait. They also attested to the genuineness of Judge Neal's signature. First cousins of the testator who re- celve legacies under the terms of the will are anxious to have it admitted, although practically all of them would benefit financially if the estate was settled as intestate. There are eight first cousins and as they are the near- est of kin their shares would amount to about $8,000 each, providing the estimates that Judge Neal'™ estate will inventory at from $62,000 to $64,000 are correct. Ixcept for Mrs. Good- rich, who was given $10,000, the other relatives recelved less than §5,000 each. In case the will is admitted tomor- row and the contestants take an ap- peal to the superior court the settle- ment of the estate is liable to be de- layed for several months. In the document Judge Neal directed that all his property be turned into cash. This will necessitate the sale of land and buildings, including the Neal res- idence on East Main street. k2 Can’t Pay Fine, Jailed The transfer station at the local freight yard. continues to contribute business for the grand jurors and jus- tices of the peace, hardly a day pass- ing without a session of the court to dispose of the cases of one or more of the men either employed or hope-to- be-employed by the railroad. THis morning Patrick Moriarty made an appearance in response to an earnest appeal from Railroad Officer Charles Grace and Constable Downing. They arrested him last night on the charge of intaxication. The accused had little to say for him- gelf this morning. Justice Prior, be- fore whom he was arraigned, imposed a fine of $§5 and costs. Moriarty was short on funds and Canstable Downing took him to jafl. “The Irish Revolt.” recent revolt in Dublin, Ireland, and the causes which it Is alleged led up to it, will be told of by Cornelius Lehane, the socialist crator and Irish patriot, at Central Square this evening. The speaker will give an address on ‘“The Irish Revolt” at 8 o'clock. Lehane is regarded as ane of the hest speakers engaged in expounding socialistic doctrines and he invari- ably attracts large crowds. This has been particularly true since the mun- successful Irish rebelllon, Lehane devoting a considerable part of his addresses to condition in that country Few Applications Made, There is apparently no great haste on the part of prospective cler and carriers in the local post office to file applications for permission to take the civil service examination which is to create a list of eligibles, very few having yet signified their intention of seeking the positions.
