Tne woman is now confined to her bed in a weak- cned condition. At Mrs. Frommer’'s home her hus- band stated that she had been 11l for some time with a growth upon her neck, and this coupled with the fact that she has relatives in Germany, about whom she has been worrying of late brought on a temporary spell of despondency and loss of mind. Her husband has also been confined to hig home lately due to an injury to his foot received at his place of employment. His wife has alse showed much concern over this. New around ‘The West Haven police and Coroner Mix are conducting an investigation to determine whether the death of Harry Platt of 817 Washington ave- nue, found with his skull crushed, in a barn at 164 Orange avenue, was the result of foul play or the kick of a horse. The body was found early vesterday morning by Frederick Cunningham, son of Edward Cunningham, contrac- tor, who emploved Platt as a team- ster. The man’s skull was badly crushed and he was lying in a pool of blood. There are marks about the man’s face which would lead to the belief that they were probably in- flicted by a horse’s hoofs, but the body was found at quite a distance from where the horses are tied, which gives the case its air of mystery. The only conclusion, which the po- lice have reached, is that Platt was & NIVEN NEW WAR BOND. London, Oct. 19.—Since the lssue of the new five per cent war bonds, the applications received by the Bank of | England have totalled £37,991,550. The average daily sales have been | nearly £3,500,000. During eleven days | in which the five per cent exchequer bonds were on sale applications amounted to only £12,000,000. The last named bonds have now been suspend- ed. ANNOYING SYMPTOMS { John kicked by the horse and had strength enough to crawl that distance away before he collapsed. More Blackmail. Hartford—A recurrence of black- mailing letters sent to wealthy Hart- ford persons is in evidence here again. Two such letters have been received within a week by Mrs. Ralph W. Cut- ler, widow of the late president of the Hartford Trust company, and by L. Talcott, president of the Strand moving plcture circuit. In the case of Mrs. Cutler, $25,000 was demanded under pain of death. Mrs. Cutler was told to leave the money in Simsbury and Mr. Talcott was or- dered to leave $2,500 at the ‘‘four cor- ners’’ in Albany avenue. Mrs. Cutler has also received message by tele- phone urging her to make haste or suffer. The letters sent by the black- mailers are written illiterately"and re- semble closely a series of similar mis- slves sent to prominent Hartford peo- st summer at which time State n Goddard was one of those who received threa Kreisler In Waterbury.

Waterbury—Manager Paul Prent- zel, when asked whether Kreisler, the renowned Austrian violinist, and Frieda Hempel would appear in his subscriptions this winter, as adver- tised, replied: ‘“Most certainly they will. There is absolutely na reason why they should not. I have the of- ficial formal statement that Mr. Kreisler has caused to be published over his name, and I also have a clipping from a Youngstown, O., pa- per about Miss Hempel which should convince all doubters of their proper attitude toward the United States. Only two persons have approached mec regarding their appearance here—one directly, the other through an anony- mous letter. If all will read Mr. Kreisler's statement and the clipping about Miss Hempel, their scruples will surely be set at rest.”” A Bogus Check. sStamford—Mrs. E. R. Thompson or . K. Thompson, Brooklyn, N.

She purchased a traveling bag for $14.75 and gave the check in pay- ment, directing that it be sent to her room at the Hotel Davenport. Playing With Matches.

Thus the total trade with that continent in the cight months of 1817 was $620,000,- 000 against $222,000.000 in the cor- responding months of 1914. To Argentina, Chile and Peru the exports have more than trebled: and to Uruguay guadrupled: while o Brazil, Colombia. Ecuador and Vene zuela the exports are nearly three times as great as in 1914, To Argen- tina the total for the eight months ending with August, 1917, is $62.- 6,000 against $19.649.000 in the same months of 1914 to Brazil, §40,- 157,000 against $15,973,000; to Chile, $32,971,000 against $10,800,000 in the corresponding months of 1914. Imports from each of rican countries show large . es, but especially those Argentina, Uruguay, Chile and From Argentina the imports of cight months of the current vear are $138,869,000 against $40,752,000 in the me months of 1914; from Chile, D 6.000 against $15 4,000: from Uruguay, $28,389,000 against $8 000: and from Brazil, $106.3 against §62,633,000 in the corres- ponding months of 1914. This increase continues down to the latest moment for which figures are available, the August, 1917, exports to all South America having been $24,888,000 against $5,312,000 in Aug- ust, 1914, and the imports from that continent in August of the current year $49,386,000 against $15,096,000 in August of 1914. The share which the United States is now supplying of the trade o? South America is very much greater than before the war. The bank’s compila- tion shows that merchandise from the United States formed about 30 per cent of the imports of all South America in 1916, while in 1913 we supplied but 15 per cent of the total imports of that continent. The United States took In the calendar year 1916 approximately 30 per cent of the ex- ports of South America, and in 1913 but 17 per cent.
