S. McMahon, New Britain's well known theater magnate, appeared in the town court this morning and, owing to the fact-that he had not had time to consult a lawyer, his case was continued until Tuesday, December 5, by Judge George G. Griswold. Mr. McMahon was charged with inflicting ynnecessary cruelty on his cattle and swine by not providing shelter, food and dr for them. Dr. William Love and H. S. Wells of Hartford ap- peared for the State Humane society and both were willing that the case go over until next week providing that McMahon would go with them to the farm and make such improve- ments as they thought necessary. #TTis he agreed to do but tnat fact will not have any bearing on the case when it is tried on Tuesday next. Dr. Love told the court that all he wanted was to secure proper protection for the cattle. Since the fire that destroved “the barns on the farm there has been 10 new structures erected to take their place and the cattle were being housed in=the cellar. Mr. McMahon stated that he had several hundred bags of grain on the place and also plenty of other feed. W. H. Gibney again acted as prosecutor. Literary Soclety Meeting.

Bull Has Suspicion As to Source of Typhoid Cases i | DISEASE CLAIMS ONE VICTIM Rosario Pettinato Dies at Hospital— His Sister Critically Ill—Alcorn to Ask for Salerno’s Indictment—IRe- ception to Rev. F. L, Grant, Following the death of Rosario Pe tinato, which occurred late yesterday at St. Francis’ hospital, Officer J. N. Bull has re- his efforts in the hope of of the typhoid cases which have been reported during the past two weeks. Dr, Bull has been working industriously \for a of days examining milk and water supply and food sour 15 well and while he was not prepared this morning to staté positively that he had located the cause of contamina- tion he admitted having a well founded suspicion which he believes his investigation will determine to be correct. Although the town appears to be somewhat alarmed over the prospects of an epidemio of the dread disease, the health officer declares that posi- tive dlagnosis of typhold has been made in but three cases. Reports are heard on the streets daily of the out- break of the malady in several homes but the physicians attending the cases have not pronounced them as typhoid fever, although in some instances symptoms of the disease have de- veloped. Doctors apparently do not give much credence to the theary that the disease has its source in the water supply. They of course discount the claims of the water company regard- ing the pufity of the water as de- termined in the weekly analysis be- cause of the faot that the examina- tion is not made for the purpose of locating disease germs. They hald to the opinion that should the reservoir water be contaminated with typhoid the cases would be far more numerous. Soda fountains have been visited by the health officer in his search for the typhold germ. The proprietors have been questioned at length as to their syrups, milk, etc.,, and marketmen have also been examined. Dr. Bull is taking every precaution to prevent a further spread of the disease and he hopes to be able to positively locate its source. The Pettinato boy isithe first victim of the disease. He had been 111 for several days and had been a patient at the hospital for nearly a week. He was seventeen vears of age. Besides his parents he leaves three brothers, John, Louis and Harry and two sisters, Mrs. Louls Conforti and Miss Mary Pettinato. The latter is also suffering from typhold. She Is in St. Francis’ hospital, where it is reported her condition 1s critical. Rosario’s funeral will be held to- morrow morning nl 9 o’clock from the Church of Our Lady of Mercy. A high mass of requiem will be celebrated. Interment will be in St. Joseph's cemetery. ‘Will Ask for Indictment, That Joseph Salerna may have to face a jury whioh will determine the punishment to be meted out to him for the murder of his wife or declare him to be insane is now the general belief, State’s Attorney Alcorn hav- ing made arrangements to present his case to a grand jury next week, ask- ing for an indictment. Salerno’s case has been put on the docket of the December term, which will apen on the first Tuesday in December and it is seemingly the intention of the state’s attorney to have the case come up for trial. - Insanity will be the prisoner’s de- fense.

Members of the Plainville Ministers’ association and their wives gathered at the home of Rev. W. A, Goodell last evening to tender a farewell reception to Rev. Frederick L. Grant and Mrs. Grant. They spent a very pleasant evening and were entertained in most hospitable fashion. During the session they adopted the following resolution: “The members of the Plainville Ministers' association wish to place on record their sincere regret at the re- moval from town of the Rev. F. L. Grant and family. Mr, Grant is one of the original members of the asso- clation and has always shown a deep an dabiding interest in its welfare. The members also desire to express their appreciation of the soholarly sermons and papers which Mr. Grant has from time to time delivered at their meetings, always feeling sure of hearing something interesting and in- structive when it was his turn to pre- sent a subject for discussion. Thoy furthermore regret his departure be- cause of the lively interest he has al- ways taken in town affairs, he having worked hard and faithfully in every movement for the betterment of con- ditions, bath spirftually and socially. He for several years served with great satisfaction to the people on the school board, board of library directors and on important committees of the Plain- ville Business and improvement as- sociation. “We wish Mr. Grant and his fam- ily Godspeed as they leave us for a new fleld of labor, hoping that they will will be happy in their new home and abundantly sue- cessful in the work they are tot un- dertake. It was voted that these min- utes be spread upon the records of the association and published in the New Britain Herald, and a copy pre- sented to Mr. Grant.” > Mr. Grant and his family left today for Windsorville where they will spend some time before moving to [Bast Hampton. The parsonage which they are to occupy in'that town is at present rented and will not be ready for them for a few weeks. They will remain in Windsorville until it Is vacated. Foresters Lease Rooms.

London, Nov. 28, 6:12 a. m.—Ger= man newspapers regard the declara- tlon of war by the provisional gov- ernment of Saloniki as neglible, ac- cording to an Amsterdam despatch to Reuters. The despatch quotes the Koelnische Zeitung as saying: “This government or rebellion has not yet been recognized by us. Tt does not exist to us, and therefore its declaretion of war is nothing to us but a blank paper requiring no reply. Although we need not and shall not take notice of M. Veniselos" declaration we cannot disregard it in principal. The so-called army of the provisional government will act) ggainst the Bulgarians and us, and we shall make them prisoners. These prisoners are rebels as long as we dis- regard the declaration of war and must be treated as such.” “Venizelos must not believe that his so-called government and his franctiereurs will be recognized by Bulgaria or Germany as belligerents."
