Van Rappard, has been recalled by his government, and has called upon Secretary Lan- sing to announce the fact and to ask if Mr. Van Rayen, who has been named to succeed him, will be accept- able to the United States. Chevalier Van Rappard, who has been minister here for four years, will be transferred to a European post, possibly his own country. He said the matter of .his transfer had been broached last February ,but no de- cision was reached until recently. The new minister, Mr. Van Roven, was formerly secretary of legation here, and has had much experience in diplamacy. He married M Win- throp of Boston, Chevalier Van Rappard said the failure of his endeavors to obtain a release of foodstuffs for shipment to Holland had nothing whatever to do with his recall, and that his successor, who will not arrive here for a month or two ,would take up the negotiations with the aid of the Dutch Mission now in this country. When Count von Bernstorff was the German ambassador here, M. Van Rappard was said to be extremely friendly with the count and was criticised on that account.

Accused of stabbing his wife last night with attempt to murder, Per- nice Dierizio was arraigned in local police court at 12:30 today Judge Prior. He was bound over to the next term of the criminal superior court under bonds. Being unable to { furnish the bonds, he was taken to | Seyms strect institution in Hart- ford this afternoon by Officer Marino where he will await trial. _ Diorizio, who is of Italian extrac- tion was interviewed this morning by a Herald reporter and asked concern- ing the whereabouts of his wifc. On Being told that she was at the New Britain General Lospital in a serious condition, his only reply was “f don’t care if she dies.”” A mocking laugh which followed the sta‘>ment lends support to the helief of the authori- ties that he is mentally unbalanced. This morning officials at the New Britain hospital reported that Mnys. Dorizio was resting comfortably but that her condition was considered serirous The stabbing affray occurred last night about 10:30 at their home on Pearl strect shortly after Dorizio came home in a drunken condition. As far as can be lcarned, he accused his wife of having other paramours, which she stoutly denied. Going to the kitchen of the hous2 he seized a butcher knife and went again to his wife's bedroom, she having re- tired for the night. A scuffle ensued during which he stabbed her in the back with the weapon. In an attempt to wrest the knife from her husband one of the fingers on the right hand was cut to the bone. Although bleedirg profuscly from the wounds inflicted, Mrs. Dorizio i managed to reach the window where her screams attracted the attention of neighbors. Myron Rogers was noti- fied and he telephoned to+Collins’ res- taurant, eliciting the aid of the po- lice. Officer Marino. who was in the vi- cinity, was summoned and hurried to {the scenc. Arriving at the home he found the door locked and the lights {out. on knocking he was told that | Mrs. Dorizio was in Hartford. Know- {ing difforent, the oflicer had to brealk ) down the door to effect an entrance. He was cénfronted by Dorizio who was still on the war path and flour- ishing the knife. ~On refusing to throw his hands up at a command from the officer Dorizio was subdued by force and handcuffed. A search of the house revealed Mrs. Dorizio lying across her bed un- conscious. The room was a carnival of blood. Dr. J. C. Tanner was sum- moned and administered first aid after which she was rushed to the New Britain hospital by Officer Marino and Undertaker Allan Bailey Dorizio, who seems to be a habitual drunkard is well known in police circles and in the p ars has paid numerous V. the town lock-up. He also has the reputation of being a confirmed wife-beater whenever he succumbs to the tempta- tions of liquor. Officer Marino stated this morning that he was not sur- prised at last nights happenings as he expected such an occurrence daily. Game Canceled. It was announced this morning that the game between Plainville and the Pawnees which was scheduled to be played tomorrow afternoon at Allen’s field has been canceled. The rcason for the cancellation is that the Pawnee management has been unable to get their men together for vari- ous reasons. No game will be played. Next Sunday the local boys will ap- pear at Rockville. Mrs. Dow Improving Mrs. J. J. Dow, who was thrown from her husband’s car on Main street, New Britain, yesterday was re- ported as improving and resting com- fortably this morning.

Until last night when it was an- nounced by Harry Castle, chairman of the democratic committee that the democratic caucus would be held next Wednesday, it appeared as if the anti- republican party had been lost in the shuifle. However, little interest is manifested in the announcement and the session will prabably prove to be a tame affair. No contests for any of the nominations are locked for and it is expected that William Hart will be nominated to oppose First Selectman Johnson for tthat office. Two Injured in Auto Accident. As the result of a Ford ‘car over- turning last evening near Hart's cor- ner Alvin Nelson and Elizabeth Green, both sustained injuries, the seriousness of which have not been determined.

The 1917 General Assembly gave the right to the several school commlttees to arrange recreation of ' the The South ¥nd park has re- mained undeveloped for some time and there has been considerable need for amusement facilities in that section of the city. The athletic field of the High school will undoubtedly be laid out there. Public baths will he in- stalled. The co-operation of the Park Commissioners has been enlisted in the matter and the project will prob- ably work out with the fullest suce For many years the athletic teams of the High school have been without a home field of sufficient facilities to to accommodate them. - With the de- velopment of this tract and the estab- lishment of public baths, recreation conditions of the South End will be ex- cellent. Principal Marcus . White of the Narmal school presented the board with a set of sketches illustrating the proposed addition to the Camp school. The proposed addition will cost about $80,000.

Slight in- creases in the salaries of the instruc- tors of both schools iwere recom- mended. Judge Gaffney introduced the ad- visability of storing potatoes from the municipal farm in the basements of the schools which had room. E. O. Kilbourne thought that the ldea was not practical and that the potatoes might injure the health of the school children. Dr. Ernest Fromen doubted if the potatoes would affect the health of the school children. The matter was referred to the finance commit- tee. A written request was read from Dr. George Dalton one of the medical in- spectors of the schools for a leave of absence since he has joined the army. It was voted to grant the leave from the date that he is called to the end of the school year. It was also voted to grant leave of absence to Dr. Wa- terman Lyon a school inspector who has also joined the medical corps of the army.
