SMITH The Drug Man, Franklin Square, Norwica, Ct. Probable Cause Found in Shapiro Matter—Trial of the Levine Charge Started and will be Resumed this. Morning—Some 1rouble Getting Bail. There was an all-day session of the city court on Monday, there being a number of matters for comsideration, but the chief one was the case of the state vs. Joseph Swatzburg, Jr., in which there are three counts, all charging fraud. In the first count probable cause was found and he wi held for the September term of the superior court under $500 bonds,which he secured about § o’clock in the even ing. The trial of the second count is under way and the prosecution will probably finish this morning. Deputy Judge J. H. Barnes is on the bench and at the opening of the case a demurrer was entered which the court was inclined to sustain, but upon the complaints being changed the de- murrers were denied and the trial pro- ceeded. The accused is charged with getting $100 from Mr. and Mrs. Ber- nard Shapiro, $600 frem Bertha Levine and $400 from Mrs. Frank T. Maples, all under false pretenses, it is alleg Jt is claimed under the first count that he secured $100 from the Shapiro couple, representing to Mrs. Shapiro that Mr. Shapiro sent him for $200 and directing that she give it to him. As she had but $100 she gave him tha The second count alleges that in tak- ing the $600 from Bertha Levine he promised to get her a husband, but had failed to do eo, while the money obtained from Mrs, Maples was se- cured under the representations thal he had an exceptional opportunity to secure some rubber stock at a bargain if the money was available. It is claim- ed that later it was learned there was no rubber transaction. As witnesses for the state Mr. and Mre. Shapiro, Aaron and Dora Shapiro testified, the evidence showing that the accused secured §100 from Mrs. Shap- iro, claiming that Mr. Shapiro had sent him for it. The aecused denied ab- solutely that he borrowed the $100, but sald that two years ago he bor- rowed $200 from them. The wife of the accused testified regarding the se- curing of money by her husband. Prob- able cause was found and he was held for the superior court under _$500 bonde. It was expected that Jacob Gordon would come to furnish the same hail as previously, but he did not show up and at 9 o'cloek Abraham Cramer was secured and he furnished satisfactory security. Following the Shapire count the Le- vine count was taken up and Mrs. AT- thur Swataburg, sister-in-law of the accused, was the first and only witness of the afternoon in that matter. Her name is Annie Swatsburg and before her marriage it was Annie Levine. She testifled that since December of last year her husband had worked for the accused, but now they are living in New York. Upon her recommendation she testified that her sister, Bertha Levine, gave the accused $600. FHe promised to be a good friend to her and be her protector. He ulso prom- ised to get her a husband. She at first gave him $300 and later gave him 3300 | more, the first sum being four year: ago. She advised her sister to let him | have the money, as he had always done right by her. She had never asked him for the money, as she wanted 1o have a good friend. The money was not in a bank but was kept for her by her cousin. J. Frank. in Brooklyn. Mrs. Swatzburg admitted that had received some money for her si ter and thought she was told every time her sister or mother received an: as they cannot read or write in an language. She told of notes being giv- en and taken up and Interest being paid. Fe paia_her $5 at times and later gave her $6, saying he wanted to do better by her. 'No account was kept, as they trusted him. At the conclusion of her testimony it ‘was desired by City Attorney Hall to call the other two witnesses for the state, but it was 5.15 o'clock and At torneys Shiclds and Thayer asked tha the matter go over to some other da It was decided that the two witn, for the state would be heard morning at 8 o'clock and the d will_come later, as the attorneys will be busy In the other courts. Court Stenographer Smith took a report of the case for'the defense, while Clay Court Clerk Tibbits covered it for the state. Many were in attendance throughout the hearing. Other City Court Cases. In the vases where the accused were charged with frequenting a disorderly house, No. 15 Elm _street, Amanda Langlais was fined $15 and costs as keeper of the house. She sent for someone to pay her fine, but no one responded, and she went to jail. The frequenters were fined $10 and coses. which Ralp Malazi of Williman- tic, Eugene Casey of Lowell, Charles Dion and George Trombleyfi paid,whils Joseph McGrath paid and cost ha Gugere was fined $10 and cost: which was pald, while the case agalnst Louise Carige of Baltic, aged 16, was moiled. She claimed that Mrs. lang- lais had been to her home in Baltic that afternoon to call. She had asked Louise to come to the city and attend the dance Saturday night, and the girl’s mother consented. The girl went to No. 15 Elm street after the dance, but the young man accompanying her aid not go in. She had been there but a short time when the police came. She testified that she did not know t nature of the place. A Greeneville boy pain costs for tak- | ing $8.50 from the dress of a Greene- ville woman. The boy’s father seemed anxfous that the boy be punished, as he saiq he could do nothing with him, but later he paid the costs. NEW ROAD FROM WILLIMANTIC TO NORWICH Survey Will Be Started at Once and Contracts Le Highway Commissioner James H. MacDonald gave out some good news during his visit to this end of the state. He went through here in_his automobile, accompanied by his dep- uty, Mr. Kelsey, and inspected road work in progress alons the territory at Willimantic. He stopped at Engi- neer Mitchell's office and before he de- parted gave orders to Mr. Mitchell to survey immediately every part of the road between Willimantic and Norwich not already under construc- tion. Just as seon as Mr. Mitcheil sends him the survey. said the com- missioner, he will see that the con- tracts are let and the work started. | He feels certaln that work will be begun and completed before the sum- mer is over. The sections which will receive attention are betw ‘Windham and Williams Cro: anon, and from the ri Rockwood in North Franklin, over and down Franklin Hill, to Smith's Cor- ners, just above Yantic. This will mean a fine road for the whole dis- tance of seventeen miles, the other sec- tions all being newly completed. FAREWELL BANQUET TO ADELARD MORIN.

The vaudeville bill was put on at the Auditorium Monday afternoon _under aifficulties, owing to the non-arrival of bageage, so that three of the numbers had to be put on in ‘street clothes and without their regular music, but in the evening the costwmes and music were all here, making a gerat contrast in the way the bill hit the public. At the evening performances there were yarge and applauding houses. Queen Mab and Casper Weiss, the smallest performers on the vaudeville stage, are the headliners dn their Lil- liputiap act, which is a swinging com- bination of vocal and instrumental melody which makes a bif hit, and is nicely’ costumed. The two Langweed sisters present a grotesque comedy musical and talking act which is a novelity and has the crowd taking notice every aninute, so that the sisters share the topline ho ors of the bitl.

The annual diocesan convention of the Episcopal churches of Connecticut opens today at New Haven. Judge Gardiner Greene and H. H. Gallup are the delegates from Christ church, C. B. Chapman and Henry F. Parker from Trinity church. It is practically assured now, it scems, that when the convention' is held today and Wednesday and consid- ers the question of the division of the ajocese of Connmecticut into two dio- cesses, that the proposition will be r jected. The matter has been under consideration of a comunittee appoint- ed for that purpose when the suge tion was made and advocated by Bisl op Brewster, and it is practically c tain that the committec’s report wi be unfavorable to the division of the diocese. As to the Jutor to appointment assist Bishop Brewster, committee will not have any r mendation on that matter in s port because the matter cannot be con- sidered under canonical rules the bishop first suggests, and thi: has not done, and it is thought unlikely that he will do it.
