The huge stone which was tak- en off the woman's body while in the mud hole, was brought lnto the court room and placed gn the lawyers' table as an exhibit. 2 Witnesses Heard. George E, Pitcher, civil engineer, was the first witness and testified to the loeality, which is secluded. He explained a map of the place, Sheriff Sidney A, Brown testified to goins fo the farm on September 19 and searching with C. B. Smith, Sher- iffs Tubbs and Martin. He found a shoe near the wall. There was a gap in the wall and it looked as if several stones were missing there.. He un- derstood the mate of the shoe had been found in the house. On Monday, September 21, another visit was made at which time there was @ large par- ty who searched the swamp thorough- 1y end the body was found. When he arrived at the spot, he said, the stone hafl been removed from the body and one knee stuck up through the water. The body was taken out and about 126 feet from that slough hole was the place where the rock was taken from. Dr. H, M. Lee of New London, who performed the antopsy the day after the body was found, told of the con- dition and of the wounds, there belng one on the right side of the head near the nose four and g half inches long and one two Inched long on the right eyebrow, She was a woman in good health, and death did not result Ly drowning_ Both wounds were fatal and death instantaneou He was shown a flat stone and said that the wounds ‘might have been caused by any side of the stone. Dr. Josiah G. Ely of Lyme, medical examiner of the town, testified to be- g called to the Jergowitz farm on eptember 21 and was conducted to the edge of Evergreen swamp, where the body was found. It was in a good state of preservation, the water being cold. He recognized her as Jennie Yerkiewiscz. He described the wounds which he sald were fatal.

Half Million Lost By Shannon Building Fire, (Continued from Page Five.) station in the Boston store annex will | probably not amount to over $200, as F. J. King managed to save some of them. “The mail was removed from t! two boxes in front of the emtranc uninjured except slightly by water. Postmaster Caruthers having notified | Washington, expects an inspector here from Boston today to adjust the mat- ter. The sub-station is In the mean- time transferred to Smith & Engler’ pharmacy in the Wauregan building. Reservoir Lost But Little. Together with the regret for loss of property there was much regret at the amount of water being taken from the reservoir and from the comment upon it there would be a possibility of drawing the reservoir dry. A measurement showed that the reser- VO was but quarter of an inch lower Tuesday forenoon than on Mon- day morning, so the loss was smal Superintendent Burnap of the water department made this _statement to The Bulletin Tuesday afternoon. The reservoir at 11.30 o'clock Mond morning registered 204 1-4 inches | down from high water mark. At 9 o'clock Tuesday morning the reservoir | showed 204 1-2 inches down. This shows a Joss of one-quarter of an inch | the regular consumers and for | used at the fire in the Shannon | ding. The loss in pressure was caused by the break when the walls fell in the watér services in the Chel- sea Savings bank, Shannon building and Boston store. The greatest los was from the six-inch cast iron main which enters the nnon building breaking off, causing a loss in pressure of Y0 pounds. This main was shut off | as soon as It was possible to get at it | and the pressure Immediately rose so | that it registered 73 pounds per square ineh, the normal pressure. The hy- drants at thi= point in the city were | all In first class condition, they hav- ing been recently inspected. Mesers. Lester and Geer, F. W. Lester and Charles Geer had a studlo In the building, and their was total, with no insurance, Mr. ster had a violin there worth $100 which he treasured highly and which was destroyed, together with his oth er instruments and music, Mr. also lost much musie. There were several explosions in the buflding “during the progress of the Geer fire. In the northeast corner there seemed to be a box of cartridges while in the basement of Steiner's pharmacy the soda tanks burst with loud reports. The falling of the sev- eral safes throvsh the floors to the cellar caused big commotions, but it | is believed that all will be found in- tact and the contents preserved. The fire did not get into the photo- graphic studio of W. R. Stevens, but when the east wall of the Shannon building fel] it went through the roof and his studio is filled with brick and plastering. There was some wal there, but his loss will not be heavy He carries an insurance of $1,000. Pulled Down the Walls. Early in the afternoon, as soon as the fire had been quenched so that it was possible to work about the walls, Henry Davis, an artist in the business, began the work of pulling down the walls. At the rear some of the wall had fallen, but it took the tugging of an_engine several times to get the remainder to earth. The brick fell across the rallroad track into the riv- er. the splah reaching to the other side, ie climbing of the walls was no easy job, but Mr. Davis is thoroughly at home at such work and had the capable assistance of Ernest Latimer. He was witnessed by a large crowd in his work, The two front walls were pulled in and fell without any damage to adjoining property or person. The east wall was next razed and fell just where it was wanted. A New Yorker, watching Mr. Davis and his work, re- maked that ho was a man any city should be proud of, and Instead of be- ing here he should be drawing a good fat salary in some large city. The walls were pulled down to guard againet the danger of their falling and injuring any passers by. The walls ‘were down by 3.80 o’clock. The brick at the back falling across the track were tackled by a gang of men during the afternoon and thrown over the wall by the riverside where they can be cleaned. The raflroad track was covered to the depth of sev- eral feet, and it was impossible to reach theé freight shed. Many Telephones in Building. The fire caused the discontinuance of 43 telephones, there being & branch ext in the Boston store, while the were distributed In the | fand W ] many offices and stores. These were cut off during the day from the cable manhole. All the instruments were burned. he electric service to New London, West Side and Laurel Hill was block- ed, as the current was shut off soon after the fire had gotten underway. Montville cars were sent as far as hames square, but the other lines were not cpened. There were many who had to walk to their work on Tuesday morning. The single track rvice to Greeneville was maintained ! afternoon when the double track seriice was started, The Yantic line opened 9.30 a. m, The Montville st Side cars were running as far as Moran's store during the day, unti] 4.45 when the first Montville car when throush, it being possible to clear up the hose by that time and at five o'clock the West Side cars be- gan going through. A car was al- Io through on the Laurel Hill run and did service there, only not pass- ing the burning building. Bulletin Brought the News. _To a very large number The Bulle- tin brought the first news of the big fire and there was a wild scramble then to get a peep at the damage done. Many failed to hear the alarm and slept through it all, while there were a_few who, not coming into the city unti] afternoon, were surprised to find the corner a mass of wreck- age. It was impossible to draw water on the hills in the early morning, owing the action of the englnes, but that 500n overcome as soon as the re was returned by shutting off reak in the building. e burned in the ceilar all night and firemen stayed there, playing wa- ter on it. An attempt will probably be made today to get at the safes by me of the owners. Water penetrated through into the Thames bank building at the rear, coming into the law offices of J. J.
