Trott of Derby, who it was alleged in the complaint alienated the affec tions of Dr. Marvin's wife, Judge Wil- liam L. Bennett in the superior court yesterday afternoon granted the mo- tion, throwing the action out of court. Attorney Carmody, representing | Trott made the motion after the attorneys for Marvin rested their case. Judge Bennett heard the ar- guments on both sides and at the conclusion agreed with Mr. Carmody’s contention that there was no case | established. The plaintiff introduced witnesses | who testified that on several occa- sions they had seen Mr. Trott kiss Mrs. Marvin and embrace her. But this evidence was offset by Dr. Mar- vin, when he was on the stand. Under cross examination he admitted that Trott was familiarly known as “Uncle Fred” and had been in the habit of kissing his wife for year: being an intimate friend of the family. He further stated that on those former occasions he thought there was nothing wrong in “Uncle Fred’s” affection for his wife. It was only when his wife became | estranged from him and demanded that he leave the house, he became | suspicious that there was something | wrong and that the affections were more than a mere rriendly attach- ment. Dr. Marvin said that he and Mr. Trott became acquainted in Cornwall, where defendant was engaged in the following business: Bakery, bottling, ice cream and as representative af a biscuit company. Witness added that defendant had been his patient for some time ang that in this way the families became acquainted. The re- lations between the Trott and Marvin familics became cordial and intimate, cach calling the other by his or her first name. When Dr. Marvin was in financial difficuities Mr. Trott ad- vanced money to settle action against him by persons who held Dr. Marvin's notes. One was for $175, another for $400, a third for $1,000. Dr. Marvin testified that nearly all his creditors were patients. Mr. Trott, he said, has always until the trouble came, proven | himself a ‘“splendid, loyval friend.” Frequent trips were taken by the fam- ilies, always in Mr. Trott’s automo- bile. A letter written by Dr. Marvin to Mr. Trott was introduced in which the former recited the turn events had taken and in which he reproached the latter for alleged unbecoming conduct. On cross-examination, Dr. Marvin gave the following facts about him- self: He was born in Wilton, Conn in 1877, and since then has lived in Newington, Middlefield, Yalesville, New York City, Cornwall, Derby, Waterbury, in Canada and North Da- kota, Lyme, New London and New Haven. During the time spent in these places he has been a student, groceryman, keeper of a general stare, traveler, ranchman, osteopath, fac- toryman, farmer, and first-aid man at the hospital at Winchesters. RUMANIA RAIDED AGAIN Austria Hungary Seizes More TYerri- tory Under Pretence of “Rectify- the Boundary. Washington, March 14.—The state department was advised late yester- day afternoon in a dispatch from the American legation at Jassy, the tem- porary capital for some months of Rumania, that the Central Powers, considering Rumania to be complete- ly at their mercy, were making de- mands of an increasingly exorbitant nature as fast as other demands of Berlin were satisfied. The newest of the demands made Berlin and Vienna call for a fur- ther ‘rectification” of the boundary between Rumania and Austria-Hun- gary The word “rectification”™ cov- ers a multitude of things. The un- by is a boundary rectification that ilienates territory from Rumania and adds it to tho Austro-Hungarian em- | pire.

Beale, acting ogent, made at the March meecting of the board of directors last cvening. AMueh more than ever is brought to the attention of the public is accom- plished in a quiet manner and the greatest good, too personal for pub- lication, is not appreciated because it is not known. Sidelights on this situa- i{ion are afforded by Miss Beale's re- port, which follows: “To the Directors 6f the New Britain Charity Organization:— “How often we hear it said, ‘Figures never lic.’ True enough, yet neither do figures tell all of the truth concerning the work of the Charity Organization. As usual the Charity Orgzanization offers ths public a sta- tistical report for each month but it is not easy {o cover hy statistics the part of our work we consider the most valuable. “How can figures explain the work necessary to accomplish our aim? 1, to be a real friend to those in trouble; 2, to restore self-respect and independence to those who have lost either; 3, to build up family life in broken homes; 4, to organize the whole ety into a committee of friends eager to help those who have not had a chance. “Can figures ever tell of results ob- tained from such forms of service as these? 1, friendly and sympathetic werk with families; 2 rengthening church connections; 3, providing edical care in home, sanatarium or bospital; 4, securing advice and aid from court officials; 5, finding and reconciling relatives; 6, obtaining em- plovment; 7, making possible co- operation of all the charitable socie-. ties of the city; 8, giving material re- lief in emergency cases. “Although our new families for February number less than in the same month last year we have come in touch with a greater number of persons needing council or aid mak- ing a total of 108 for the twenty- eight days of February, 1918. “As a result of these many prob- lems arising a convalescent father was encouraged by the promise of a few week's aid till he was working again; rhoes were provided for his children so that they need not Le absent from school; the disheartened mother was encouraged and cheered by the proper food provided; hospi- tal care of a week was secured for one little tot who returned showing in that short time a hint of healthy color under his skin due to proper medical and surgical treatment. “Important instruction in home sanitation was continued this month regarding baths and care of the .chil- dren’s teeth. New tooth brushes pre nted pleased many a mother who sometimes confessed to owning one brush for hersel Twelve year old biggest brother or sister was instru ed under Mother as Captain to be Lieutenant of the tooth brush bri- gade and to see that the several younger ones remembered each night and morning to perform faithfully their duties. One such valiant offi- cer hauled three sleepy little slack- ers ou of bed the other night to fin- ish the day as per order. “How often a weary mother, sick and worn from lack of food, from worry and beatings, comes at last to the point where everything else hav- ing failed she will go when advised and place a complaint against her fhusband, who has Dbecome through drink, wild and careless, stupid and brutal, wholly unmanageable, spend- ing all he earns for more drink while his family suffer. Then while the father is deprived of freedom for a season and retires from society for a time to rid his system of alcohol the Charity Organization finds provision for the wife and little ones. Always by iving employment to the mother if she is able to work, s by strengthening church connections whenever they exist. This we feel is of vital importance to the family's welfare and throughout the city the Charity Organzation finds that with- out fail the ctergy of our man churches show a feeling of cordial and sincere co-operation. “Bvery month numerous inquirics come from out of town regarding proper homes for babies with rela- tives, wayward girls boarding aw from home, need of financial aid from brothers and sisters, addresses of pos- aible relatives to be verified, finding of relations who have drifted away and reconciling them to others. “Our monthly meeting of all the including philanthropic private organizations, church visitars, factory welfare nurses and public officials who visit in the homes, tends to establish an even firmer friendship among a group of those eager to help all those who have not had a chance. This conference of social workers is making possible a splendid ca-operation of charitable workers for the good of our city. Few of the societies represented furnish any material aid. The Charity organi- ation meets the needs not already covered and gives material aid at once in emergency. Our office Is open daily from 9 to 12 and 1:30 to for the benefit of co-ordinating with any so- ciety or others interested in the wel- fare of our city's needs. “In , February, 8 such requests ama for our services 121 of which were from applicants themselves. things and can and 134 visits were made in behalf of famil Eleven more outside calls regard to the business routine of the office. Messages were received and given by telephone, bringing about satisfactory results amounting to 247 calls. As a result of requests both from consultants re- garding our families’ needs and froml ! der to r applicants themselves, we found it ad- visable ta give aid to 27 families; 15 of these received emergency aid, anid 12 temporary weekly aid. Clothing was supplied to 21, medical attention to two, and special dental treatment to one. One person secured a perma- nent position through our efforts and a day's work was supplied to six others. “Out of our 21 new families for con- sideration, vagrancy was the cause in five cases, illness made it necessary for four to apply for temporary help, two were hindered by mental handi- cap fram being able to support them- selves, two widows needed assistance, two families, through shiftlessness, had been unable to continue progress | alone, two wives were deserted, four others, from various 1 needed counsel for the first time. ““Our treasury fund supplied the ne- | cessary aid to the amount of $107.92, | and from the agent's fund, $75.60 was expended.

Martford and Vitchfield County | Church Lecaders to Mect. i Hartford, March 14.—The ptist church of Hartford and Litchfield counties are planning to co-eperate in | a project to raise $1,000,000 for missionary and war purposes before March 31. Governor Marcus H. Hol- comb, who is a member of the Bap- tist church of Southington, has given bis approval to the plan and has sent cut over his signature, an invitation fo the pastor and lavmen of all the | Faptist churches in these two (‘mmf-i fes, to meet him at the City club in Hartford, next Monday evening, at! 7 o'clock, to form plans for the cam- paign. There will he a banquet and spcaking will follow. The governos himself, will preside. The churches of Litchfield counties will contribute $6,500 to this sum. The raoney will be raised with as little ! rganization as possible. Bach church vill be asked to appoint a campaign committee, consisting of chairman, campaign director and treasurer. This committee will arrange to have the church membership canvassed in or- ise the amount desired. The money will be in excess of the usual contributions of the churches and | will be used in maintaining the work of the denomination up to standards which have prevailed in the past. | Some of the money will be spent for work for Baptist boys in the can- tonments. Other denominations are yaising generous sums for such ef- forts and the Baptists are determined to do their share in this important field The plan to raise one million dollars in a quick, determined drive, is one which was proposed by Ambrose Swa of Cleveland, a well known manufacturer of telescop: At one time Mr. Swasey was a resident of Hartford county and helped to build the Asylum Avenue Baptist church of Hartfcrd. The pastor of this chureh, P. C. Wright, is now chairman of the state committee, which is raising the money. Baptists in other counties have already held railies in which much enthusiasm for the enterprise was manifested. With the governor himself, aiding and encouraging the work of the denomination in Hart- ford and Litchfield counties, there should be no doubt as to the outcome of the campaign.
