Clarke presided at the regular monthly meeting of the Westerly town council Monday, with these councilmen present: C. Clarence Maxson, William Culley, Horace C. Burdick, Maurice J. Flynn, Albert H. Langworthy. The records of the last regular and special meetings were ap- proved as read by Clerk Everett E. ‘Whippel. The bills of Overseer of the Poor Barber were approved and ordered paid, as were the other regular bills of the town. Attorney Henry L. Burdick, repre- senting John F. Davis, claimed that by reason of a brook running into Paw- catuck river a bar was formed in front of Mr. Davis’ dock and making it im- practicable for his business. Mr. Bur- dick set forth that this obstruction was due to the faulty layout of some of the streets, as the sediment fills the pockets and flows on and injures Mr. Davis’ property. No claim for damage was made at this time, but the attor- ney asked that the judgment of the council be furnished as soon as possi- ble. Mr. Davis is willing to assist the town in every possible way to remedy this defect. Councilman Flynn asked if the brook was used for any purpose except to Rhode Jsland? We are direct importers | ol v _Water from the brook and sur- face water; whether it was used for sewerage. 'Mr. Burdick said he had no information on that subject. In response to a query from Council- man Maxson, Mr. Davls said that for- merly large sloops and tugboats were able to come to where his dock is now located. Mr. Davis saild the expense to the town to remove the bar would be about $200 and that he planned to construct a pocket that would care for the sediment in the future. Chief of Police Bransfield made re- port of the work of the police for No- vember, which showed four arrests for intoxication, four stores found open and two liquor raids. The doings were reported in detail, approved and order- ed on file. Lewis Stanton, health officer, report- ed that during the month there were three cases of diphtheria, all in one family. Notice was given of the proposed sessions of the state taxation commis- sion and invitation from the commit- tee was read asking that the town of Westerly be represented at the ses- sions. Councilman Langworthy, Asses- sor Carney and President Clarke were suggested -as suitable representatives of the town at these sessions, which will be held in Providence during De- cember.

Chapman Land Damage Ver- dict of $300—Balks at $600 :respass Award—Leath of Mrs. Abel Cartwright—Unknown Man Found Dead —Suicide Theory—Wm. H. Sisson’s Death at Solcier’s as the direct representative of ,the town council. The bill of former Town Solicitor Everett A. Kingsley of $100 in the Conway case, which was referred back to Mr. Kingsley at the previous meet— ing for more particulars, was again presented. On motion of Councilman Langworthy the bill was ordered paid. Councilman Flynn was not opposed to the payment of the bill, but be- lieved that such cases should be thor- oughly discussed before being taken into court. He believed that there was a time when the Conway case could have been satisfactorily settled. Councilman Langworthy said the Conways have no case against the town and therefore should not be set- tled. He would rather pay a few hun- dred dollars to settle such cases in court and thereby prevent frequent claims. - Councilman Flynn said that it was set up that Courtland P. Chapman had no claim for damage, but the jury de- cided otherwise. Councilman Langworthy declared that Mr. Chapman had not yet re- ceived any money from the town in connection with that judgment. At this point Attorney Kingsley sug- gested that the Chapman madtter be considered in secret session. Everett A. Kingsley was appointed enumerator of births, marriages and deaths for the present year. Town Solicitor Agard made report of progress in the matter referred to him relative to the power of the gas and electric light company of laying ser- vice pipes in the streets. He was un- able to complete report owing to diffi- culty in ascertaining action of the council by reason of lack of idnex to the records. The Westerly Light and Power company, however, had all the rights and privileges of all former gas and electric light companies. So far as known there is no authority given the light and power company to lay pipes in the street, but that cannot be determined until after a thorough search of the records for the past for- ty-eight years. On motion of Councilman Flynn the report of Mr. Agard was accepted as a court of progress and the committee continued. , The council then went into execu-— tive session for the purpose of discuss- ing the various phases of the cases of Courtland P. Chapman against the town of Westerly, in which a jury last week gave judgment for plaintiff of $600 in alleged trespass case and $300 in land damages. This matter was discussed by the councilmen for over an hour and it was finally decided to settle the land damage case, but it was voted to have consultation with Attor- ney Walter H. Barney relative to draw- ing up an appeal to the supreme court from the verdict of the jury awarding $600 for trespass. In the John F. Davis claim it was voted to refer the whole matter to Town Solicitor Agard to ascertain whether the town is liable for the al- leged obstruction in the Pawcatuck river at Mr, Davis’ property. westbound Gilt Edge express train had trouble Sunday night after the customary stop at Mystic, After starting ahead the train had gone only a short distance when one of the piston rods broke, and in attempting to back the other piston rod was broken and the locomotive was helpless. The train was held up for nearly half an hour, awaiting the arrival of a spare engine | from Midway. The air brakes on this engine became clogged and caused | trouble at stations. The train was due to arrive in New York at 11 o'clock, but was delayed an hour and forty minutes. The Master of schooner L. A. Plummer, from Newark for Portland, which ar- rived Sunday at Martha's Vineyard, reports that when ten fniles off Watch Hill Saturday night the Plummer ran into an obstruction and the schooner’s stem was split, but she does not leak. In the dark the obstruction appeared to be about one hundred feet long and is supposed to have been part of a ves- sel. It may be a portion of the schooner Merrill C. Hart or the bark- entine John S. Bennett, which were sunk in that vieinity several weeks ago. It was supposed these derelicts had been dynamited by government divers and daager to navigation pre- vented. Elizabeth, fe of Abel Cartwright, who for thirty-four years has been a resident of Pawcatuck, died Monday morning at her home in Liberty street in her 76th year. She was a member of Christ Episcopal chunrch, Westerly. Besides her husband she is survived by two daughters, Mrs, Willlam F. Loudon of Pawcatuck and Mrs. Carrie Sisson of New York. The body of an unknown man, who had evidently committed suicide, was found in the pine woods between the highway and the Wood River branch railroad and half a mile from Wood River Junction Sunday afternoon by Jesse Whaley of East Greenwich, who was walking through the woods with a companion. Dr. Rouse, the medical examiner, made an investigation, but there was nothing that would lead to identification. The body had been where found probably a year or more and the cloth- ing indicated that the man was re- spectably dressed. A razor beside the body indicated suicide to the medical examiner, but some are of opinion that the man was murdered. Nothing of value was found at or near the body. Two letters were found, but the eie- ments had affected them beyond recog- nition. Dr. Rouse is of the opinion that the man was about 50 years of age, five feet three inches in height and had dark hair. The clothing was of dark material, including a rain coat, and the shoes were heavy soled and nearly new. The body was removed to the rooms of Undertaker Avery in Hope Valley. ! Si of Westerly died William H. Sisson y in the National Sol- G )h,u:hm he went about nth . was n'elrly “nmyoelrs old and served in the First t Heavy artillery.

Ex-Governor George H. Utter of Westerly delivered the Elks' Memorial address in Newport Sunday. The Osbrook house has been moved from Osbrook grove to a location in lower Pawcatuck near the thread mill. » Local amateurs are rehearsing a min- strel entertainment for the benefit of the Church of the Immaculate Concep- tion. Frank W. Coy, seriously injured in a team collision recently, was able to be out for a carriage ride Sunday after- noon.

TAFTVILLE Third Company’s Basketball Team Plays Here Wednesday—Goes to Wil- limantic Hospital—Visitors in the Village. The local followers of basketball will see a fast exhibition of the game on ‘Wednesday evening in Parish hall, when Manager J. B. Benoit’s Taftville five meets the Third company, C. A. C. The militiamen’s team will probably be Mullen and Sheehan, forwards; Sulli- van, center, and Rydholm and Rankin | guards. The home team’s lineup has not been selected, as Manager Benoit, although making his first game a vic- tory, is planning to try out two new men for the center position, Arthur Brooks and Henry Ensling from the city. Theodore, better known as Pomp Morrissette of Wijllimantic, one of the ctars of the Taftville team of two sea- son’s &go, may be seen here again in the game also. The Olympians and the Mighty Five also play at Parish hall Wednesday night, the first half coming before the main game and the last during inter- mission. Elzear Goderre of Plainfield was vis- iting in town Saturday. Eliodore F. Grenier of Moosup was recently visiting local friends. Miss Anna May Benoit of Provi- derce sircet is visiting in Pawtucket, R. L . Mr. and Mrs. Joseph D’Avignon were guests of Willimantic relatives Sunday, the latter remaining for a short visit. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Ogden have recently moved from School street to Louis Wunderlich’s house in Blissville. It was Alva E. Grimes who, shot the deer in Maine and presented it to the German Shooting club for their supper Saturday eevning. Miss Delia Arseneault of South A street, entered St. Joseph’s hospital, ‘Willimantic, Saturday, where she may undergo an operation. 3 Alfred Dion of South B street and his son-In-law, Hormisdas Germain, were recent visitors at the home of the former’s brother, Pierre Dion of Web- ster, Mass. Miss Eva Flynn of South B street returned to work in the finishing room of the Ponemah company Monday, aft- | er a two weeks’ absence. Miss Flynn has recovered from a touch of pneu- | monia. Senda Fortle and Mr. and Mrs. Dupont took an tomobile trip to New London eariy Sunday afternoon, spending the rest «f the day at the home of Mrs. Will- 1am Bennett. Miss *Lena_Fortin, Edward Robinson, from Michigan, is visiting his friend, Arthur Candlish of Blissville. Mr. Robinson is the son of Samuel Robinson, a former well known resident of Taftville, who died in Ashton, R. I, about twoe years ago. Unclaimed letters in the Taftville postoffice_are addressed to Emile Ber- thiaume, Michele Dupilippo, Miss Clara Eckhart, Thomas Eagleton, Euclide Gravelle, Emmanuel Lavigne, William MacDonald, Miss Madge O’Hearn and Misg A. Paricee, John Nolan and Thomas Hendrick walked from Taftville to Schofield's Hill, Greansville, and back Sunday aft- ernoon,and later with W. White walked to Franklin square and back. The first two have been thinking of a walking trip to New London. A number of Taftville people walk- ed to Versailles Sunday evening, and others went up by car, after they heard the whistle and bell at 8.45 but all were disappointed in their hope of see- ing a big fire, for everything was dark and hardly a light in one of the tenement houses could be found. YANTIC HAPPENINGS. e Mrs. Arthur Tucker and daughter of Brooklyn, N. Y., were guests Sunday of Mrs. William Tucker. Master Ernest Sherman, son of Mr. and Mrs. George Sherman, unierwent a slight surgical operation at the Bacikus hospital Saturday.

'Railroad Dividends. Payment of the Pennsylvania rail- road's 3 per cent. semi-annual divi- dend calls for the distribution of $9,735,608.50 among 52,270 stockhold- stockholders.

The stock of the Pennsylvania is widely diffused. Other rallroads have immense lists of shareholders, but none of them equals the Pennsylvania.
