ANCIENT MILLSTONE IS TAKEN TO YALE Dates Back Tw>07 Centuries, Link- ing 0Id With New New Haven, Oct. 8.—Drawn by a team of oxen, a wagon bearing a millstone with a history reaching back more than two centuries entered the Harkness Memorial quadrangle at Yale university today, and the mill- stone was deposited in Branford court, the central campus of the new group of dormitories at Yale. The millstone, a link between the ancient and pres- ent day Yale, came from the town of Branford where it undoubtedly was used to grind corn eaten by Abra- ham Pierson, father of Yale's first president. The millstone was in use when Yale was founded at Saybrook in 1701 and when it was christened Yale college in 1713 in New Haven. Two other millstones with historic connections are in the quadrangle arena now and eventually all will be placed in pave- ments in the courts of the structure. The other millstones came from Killingworth and Saybrook, Conn. That from Saybrook is believed to be a survivor of the Lion Gardiner wind- mill, built in 1636, and which for 175 years thercafter ground the grist for the Saybrook farmers. It is cut out of granite, five feet in diameter and elght inches thick. Frederick S. Chap- man, Yale, '94, and a selectman of Saybrook, was instrumental in ob- taining the Saybrook stone. The Killingworth millstone was the nether stone of an old grist mill run by the water of the Menunkettesuc river. It was donated by Everett E. Lord of New Haven at whose an- cestral home in Killingworth the stone was preserved. This is to be placed in Killingworth court and the Saybrook stone in Saybrook court. These relics are to impart the fipal historical touch to the quad- rangle buildings the gift of Mrs. Stephen V.

Posting ot 'thes reduced rates fol- lowed the breaking off of ‘megotia- tions which have been in progress for months between representatives of the board and of the British lines. In a formal statement explaining its ac- tion the board last night declared the compromise offered by the = British was unacceptable because it awarded only 50 per cent of the “sailings” from Alexandria and made no refer- ence to any proportion of the ‘cot- ton”; and, further, because existing contracts between the British, lines and an' Alexandria shipping organi- zation gave the former undisputed ad- vantages over their dompetitors. The statement also commented upon the awarding of these contracts to theeBritish after ‘competitive” bid- ding in which the American offer was materially lower. New bids were sought without the board being in- formed, it was declared and when the British lines lowered their charges to the exact figure of ‘those submitted by the Shipping Board, the contract was awarded to them.

Page). ling violently, the police say, and in response to questions mumbled, “aw- ful, awful.” Early today young Kluxen was taken to the county jail at Morris- [town and submitted to further ques- ed States and Alexandria ten shillings | tioning. He did not waver in his story. “They haven’'t a thing on the boy” his father, Francis Kluxen, Senior, de- clared after the examination was over. fhe elder Kluxen owns the wooded strip in which the crime was com- mitted. “How could he come into the house after a crime like that, eat supper quietly and afterward go to bed and sle€p soundly? It would have been im- possible. I am satisfied he is perfectly innocent. He told a straight story to the police. They questioned him for four hours and got nothing from him but a perfectly reasonable and straight story.” The boy is held on a warrant Which The word murder is not used in the body of the .complaint. Responsibility for young Kluxen's arrest was disclaimed this morning by County Prosecutor John M. Mills. He said the borough council of Madison had ordered chief of Police Ryan to make the murder charge against the boy. “T'm willing to be convinced Francis is guilty” the prosecutor declared “but until I am convinced I will go ahead investigating clues that I think will unmask the real murderer.” Mr. Mills asserted that.examination of the boy’'s clothing and pockeknifo for bloodstains and of his movements Thursday were the basis of his disbelief in young Kluxen's guilt.
