Siate streets, wil), e authorities believe, furnish invaluable clues in:solving the mw- tery of Charles A. Taft’s tragic end a { & lonely spot on Kensington lvenue, Although chauffeurs report they have seen her previously on streets of Hurt- ford’s old tenderloin, they c'aim to b unaware of her identity. It is the be- lief that she is not a resident of Hart- ford but of one of the nearby cities or towns. It is suspected that she ‘may have important information relative to Taft’s mysterious passengers on the night of the tragedy. From Hartford, it is rcported that Detective Sergeant John M. Henry, in chdrge of that end of the investiga- tion, knows the identity of the couple suspected of renting the “death car” THursday night but whether they were passengers at the time of the shoot- ing has not been ascertained. It has been learned that the two htred the car the previous™night in East Har‘- ford and made a return engagment for a trip the next night. According to Stanley Slater, another chauffeur, intimate friend of Taft, the lutter sald that the couple hailed him as he was driving his car on the Connecticut boulevard across the river. e is suid to have reccived $8 for driving them around for about an hour und a half. Taft thought that there as some- thing “‘queer” about the incldent and his passengers and s reported as hav- ing remarked that it was ‘“easy money”. According to the belief of Sergeant Henry, the couple did not patronize Taft’s car, as per agreement, the next night but this detail has not been determined. The woman is =ald to be.a patron of “ Hartford caharet shows. The mysterioug woman noted board- ing Taft’s car Thursday, night /clad in | the noticeable plaid cloak with large smmres in the design, is described as atfractive appearing, small in oulld and not a regular patron of haunts of Hartford’s uiderworld inhabitants. May Have Fled on Train. /Liklihood that the slayer of Taft and the com on made their escape by way of Berlin and the “New Hav- en” road has been subjected to the ‘closest of inquiry by local authorities. There was a New York train that left at 10:54, due at Meriden at 11:14 and a northbound train that left at 11:19, due’ in Hartford at 11:33. According to the authorities, the Berlin station- master noted no suspicious persons boarding these trains that night but, ‘because of beihg comparatively little acquainted in that neighborhood, weould have been unable to distin- gulsh between regular patrons of the road and strangers. / How Taft happened to be on Kens- ington avenue remains .a mystery. People in this city, Berlin and Kens ington know of no roadhouse between this city and Meriden. It is thought that his passengers may have wanted to go to Meriden and he took the “back road” upon their request. The distance is about the same as by the more frequently traveled thorough- fare. Until the :nm:ormes are able to trace.ownership of the revolver, from whont it was purchased and by whom, 1t is of but little use in solving the mystery. It is not believed that it was bought in this city or Hartford. Deal- ers in firearms have twenty-four hours’ leeway in reporting salks to the authorities. Records of the past year have been carefully gone through without the finding of anything that would give a clue as to the history of the revolver. This lends support to the theory that it was purchased in some distant city by a person who carefully planned getting Taft out of the way. 1 _— FOR SCHOOL LIBRARY.

Stanley bequeathed the sum of $1,000 to the Eccleslastical society of‘ the South Congresational church, accord- ing to the terms of his will filed in the probate court today. This bequest the will specifies, shal}f become a per- manent fupd, the income from which shall be used for the mbsic of the chutch, ° After the payment of all funeral expenses and just debts, Mr. Stanley's will provides that his wife, Sarah M. Stanley, shall have the “use, income and profits of one-third the estate during her natural life. At her death it is to go equally to his five children. Should Mrs. Stanley die within fifteen years of her husband’s death, the five children, Lawrence M., Theodore M., Marion M., Katherine A. and Fred Stanley will receive their shares outright in fifteen years. $3,000 Given to Sister. . To his sister, Isapelle Stanley, Mr. Stanley bequeathed $3,000, or such part of that amount as may be left from the sale of property at East Main and Wilson streets. This is to. be taken in full settlement of any claims against this property. The will fur- ther specifies that should any of the children die with issue their’ share goes to that issue in fifteen vears. An- other clause in the will states that the executor of the will shall lease Lin- wood farm to John H. Payne for $400 per year, the executor reserving the right ‘to designate the term: of the ease. Provides for 1.ong Settlement. Mr. Stanley suggested in his will that the executor of his estate hold all real estate for a peried of five years after his death, so that no sacrifices ‘will be made and =o that his chil- dren may take it over if they so de- sire. The executor is given permission to take several years in settling the | estate if neeessary. John H. Kirk- ham is named as executor and the New Britain Trust company as trustee, both to serve without bond. The will was drawn up in a hospital in New ; York on December 14, 1916, and was Wwitnessed by Charles H. Peck, Charles | B. Stanley and Charles B. Grimshaw. A codicil, drawn by Judge Kirkham on January 30 of the present year and witnessed by Mrs. James Thompson, [ James Thompson and Anna C. Malm- | feldt, calls attention to the recent or- ganization of the Cedar HiH Dalry company, and directs that the trustee of the wilk be empowered to advance ary reasonable loans to the company, securing each by a mortgage.

This morning the hureau was enlivened by the sudden appearance of a man of Napoleonic stature and pose. Walking up to an agent he demanded in a gruff voice that he be given a census blank. Fold- ing the paper, he turned abruptly on his rubber heel and stalked out, re- marking that he would return anon. Admits Being “Detektive.” Curiosity got the better of the agent and when the blank was .re- turned he looked it over. “What is your present occupation? A detek- tive,” was what he read. The modest and unassuming “detektive” admit- ted, further down in his list, that he is not qualified for any gruelling work for although he denied any serious physical disability, he just as stren- uously denied any ability to swim. drive an auto, drive a team or any {of the other accomplishments enu- merated. High School Pupils Help. Owing to the stormy ~weather of yesterday, with the exception of the assistants who make it a point to be on hand daily, there were but few volunteers: in the morning and after- noon. In ' the ovening, however, there. wds a large force on hand 'to perform the work in the office. As soon as it was apparent there were not a sufficient number of helpers to handle the work properly in the of- fice, Chairman A. F. Corbin. rushed the bulk of the work to thé Voca- tional High school. where under the ‘able direction of Professor 'J. C. iMoody a large number of the willing students carried out the task set be- fore them in a most business like manner. Too much credit cannot be given the High school students for the big part they are playing in this | census taking. Although yesterday was stormy, there were many can- vassers at work getting persons to fill out blanks, and an unusually large number came to headquarters to vol- j untarily make out theirs. ' An amusing incident of yesterday was a man who came to the office in | City Hall to fill out a blank. He said the reason he came in to make out the paper was owing to the fact that he had cold feet. ‘““But do not think,” sai e, “that ¥ mean I have cold feet in the sense of the common, everyday expression. Only my feet are really cold and I thought this a good place to get them warm, so I came in for that purpose and at the same time to fill out a blank.” Office Force on Job.

The will of the late Bernhard Can- zellarini, 'drawn up by H. E. Morton on May 3, 1916, was admitted to pro- bate today. In his will the testator directed his executor to mortgage any real estate, if necessary, to pay the following bequests: $200 each to Bernard and Andrew Cansellarini, sons, and a like amount to Emma and Ledia Canzellarini and Mrs. Bertha Wheeler, daughters. The remainder of the estate is left to the widow as long as she shall re- main unmarried. If the income from the estate is not sufficient to support her comfortably but economically she may mortgage property to gain the necessary sums. The will specifies however, that should the widow Te- marry she will forfeit all her part of the estate except that which would be legally her’'s had her husband died intestate. In such instance the re- mainder of the estate will be equally divided between other children, Mary, Paul and Alfred Canzellarini. TO OPEN RIVER TRAFFIC. to New York Boats to Steam Monday.
