Ask Selectmen of Connecticut Town to End Box Protest From Wester 7 ing Bouts in Pawcatuck—Chauffur Milford Must Pay Penalty for Careless Driving—Books for Library from Philip- pines—Meeting of County Medical Society. Although active in legal battle for more than eight months, John V. Wel- ford, chauffeur for McCrea, the Pitts- burg millionaire and Watch Hill suni- mer resident, must surrender and mit to the penalty imposed upon Welford took exceptions in the case brought against him for recklessly runnifg an automobile on the Watch Hill Toad on the night of August 1 last, The exceptions have been over- ruled in an opinion of the Rhode Is- land_syperior court, handed down by Chiet Justice Dubols, Wednesday, and the case was remanded to the superior court for sentence. That court.had imposed a penalty of $600 and costs, and appeal was taken to the supreme court on bill of exceptions. The complaint against Welford charged that he carelessly ran his automobile into an express wagon in which was Frank Collins, and that the man’s life was endangered. He filed & demurrer to the complaint, which was overruled and he was found guilty in the Third district court, Westerly. On appeal to the sup court the de- fendant's demurrer of the compiaint first count to the was overruled and sustained as to the second count. In its nion the supreme court refers to tions 11 and 12 of public laws, and says: daty of operators of mo- t0_obey th ws regulat- Disre- the use of such of or inattention to such duty stitutes unlawfulne: d reckless- words ‘unlawfully’ and ‘recklessly’ in the complaint are de- scriptive of the manner in which the def and dant drove the motor vehicle into against the team driven by the ainant in the highway so a: to r his life and limbs. They neg- ative any inference that the collision was innocent accident. The facts stated in the count do constitute the ce of operating a motor vehicle ot a public highway of the state so as to endanger the life and limbs of complainant. The demurrer was prop- erly overruied and the exception is ithout merit. Fhere is no doubt but the best mor- al”sense of Westerly is against the wrestling ‘and boxing bouts that have been permitted just over the river in the village of Pawcatuck in the town of Stonington, although these sport- ing exhibitions have been conducted as orderly as possible and attended | by many reputable citizens. So far as known, no objections to them have been filed by the citizens of Pawcatuck, but the ministers of Westerly have taken the matter up with the selectmen of Stonington by the presentation of a formal protest against these sporting events, on the ground that they tend to depravity of morgls and therefore are not conduc- ive to the genera] good of the com- munity of which Westerly is a part, | although located in another state, t minister in Pawcatuck and that the signers of the protest are Westerly, Rhode Island, citizens, and just what effect the efforts of Westerly people to regulate the affairs of another town and in another state will have with the gelectmen of Ston- ington is_problematical. While Westerly and Pawcatuck are practically considered as one commu- nity, receiving the same postoffice ser- vice, still they are under different state and town governments, and there are people on both sides of the Paw- atuck river who take advantage of the situation, both from a social and business standpoint, and not unfre- quently for criminal convenience. Both® places do not always work in armony and town lines are occasion- drawn very tight.

ALLEGED HARMONY IS SAID NOT TO EXIST In Connection With Hearings on Pub- lic Utilities Commission. Hartford, April S—It is a notewor- thy fact in connection with hearings on the public utllities commission measure which was introduced at the instance of the present commission that not a member of that commission has appeared in favor of the bill. The sec- rehary of the commission, Mr. Wells, has conducted the case for the measure, and ft was assumed that the men who drafted the bill favored its but making the fight for it has been left to the paid secretary of the\commission. Meantime it has developed that among the four members of the com- mission who drafted itj Mr, Willcox’s fllness and recent death having prac- tically taken him out of any active participation In the matter, there is not the harmony that been supposed to exist. One member of the commission hes wade no secret of the fact that he has done his duty and washed his hands of the matter. He has even said to members of the legislature that he should eave his connection with the bill where it stood, and certainly shouldn’t ask any member to vote for At There s little more evidence regard- ing the matter to be heard by the ju- diclary committee, and the argumemts will be made by the middle of next weelk. but it s not thought that a re- port will be forthcoming for some littls time yet. as the committee desires to o over the subject thoroughly in exec- utlve session, and will delay somewhat o await the outcome of Governor Lil- Jey's illness. There is little reason to expect, however, that it will report in favor of this bill, or. indeed, any meas- ure creating a public service commis- sion.

Here in New Haven, says The Un- ion, the water can be shut off-from houseg where the,water bill remains unpaid, In Waterbury a fight is on nnmn such”action, Today in_that city members of the Real Estate Deal- ers’ association will appear before a Jjudge of superior court and ask an injunction restraining the city of Waterbury from cutting off the water from any consumers who are In ar- rears in their rents. A prominent member of the associ- ation said today: “The order of May- or Thoms is an attempt to place us in a false light. We are ready to com- promise and he is not. Before many hours we hope to have an injuncti in force. It is amusing to ‘see Mis attempt at bravery, That old ‘injunc- tion hag been of no value for two years. “As the situation now stands May- or Thoms has ordered Supt. of Water William B. Kennedy to shut off the water of all consumers who are in arrears on water rents on April 15. Mayor Thoms, with all his bravery, will not take the matter into the couris for he knows <we would be highly pleased if he would do so. He has always claimed the old bills should be paid at the old rates and yet it was upon his express recommendation that the unfair rates were changed to what they now ar BRIDGEPORT PATROLMEN Get $9,600 as Result of Recent Suit. There was distributed to Bridgeport patrolmen over $9,600 Tuesday after- noon, which was back pay due them for a year, and s the result of their legal victory over the board of ap- portionment, says thg-Bridgeport Tele- gram. The men marched into Clerk Smith's Toom with an outstretched hand and e smile, and took what was handed fto to them, minus the 10 per cent. deduction for attorney’s fees. By taking their case to court and refusing to resign, as did the officers, the patrolmen win a decided victory over the officers of the department. It will be recalled that the increased pay of the men went Into effect in April, 1908. By the actlen of the board of apportionment and the legal obstacle that the commissioners encountered, the entire force was denied the in- crease. The officers of the department, in- cluding the superintendent, the cap- tain, the lieutenants and sergeants, all tendered thelr resignations last De- cember and were immediately reap- pointed to their old positions. This is how they evaded the charter clause and became entitled to the increased salary. The patrolmen had no char- ter clause to evade, but took their case to the court and won out. By this action they get e full vear's pay. The officers, who had their pay in- creased at the same time as did the patrolmen, have only enjoyed their in- crease for the past four months. DISPLAY SIGNS. Waterbury Busine Men Instrumental in Having Prices Reduced. Through the efforts of the Postoffice Square Business Men's association of ‘Waterbury, the Connecticut company iseabout to make a big cut on electrical display elgns. They have practically agreed to reduce the cost per light of these signs from elght to five cents. They will give for $1.80 per year a four candle power Mght to be burned five hours each night. One merchant at present pays $96 a year for his sign, which he burns only two nights a week. Under the new price he can have the sign going every night in the year for $108. WANT NEW SCHOOL TAX LAW. Attempts Being Made to Reach Class That Pays Nothing Yor Support of Sohools at Bhelton. The fact that the people hfiving the largest number of children who are being educated in the public schools of Shelton pay absolutely nothing for the support_of these schools has caused many of the taxpayers to endeavor to attempt to secure the passage of some law that will reach these people. As It is at present there are in Shel. ton over one thousand who pay abs lutely nothing, directly at least, tow- ard the support of the public schools, A Town Boomer. A good citizen of Hardwick, Mass, seems to have known how to leave his money for the benefit of that town. The will of Calvin Paige, after leaving $40,000 each for four nieces, bequeath- ed $25,000 for the improvement of the public schools of Hardwick, $30,000 for improving the town of Hardwick cem- etery, $100,000 to the same town for the establishment of a fair ground to en- courage improvement in farming, and 25,000 to the First Universalist socie- $ ty of the same place. \‘ BRIEF STATE NEWS Middletown.—Dr. C.
