After conducting an Investigation in- to the death of o man who was iden- tified by his traveling companion by initinls tattoed on his body, and by Frank A. Bliss of this city, who was formerly acquainted with him, as Thomas H. Brackett of Worcester, Mass, Coroner Franklin H. Brown found that the loss of life was acci- dental. Brackett was sitting on one of the cars of the Central Vermont freight train, northward bound, passing through Norwich at 7 o'clock on Fri- day morning. His back was toward the engine as he sat upright and his it Side head crashed into the bridge. Death was probably instan- taneous from the fracture of the skull that he received. Ac fed Thomas Bennett, by who said North Attleboro, Mass., was | his home, and that he had first met Brackett in New London on Thurs day, he “hopped” the frelght from the latter city on Friday morning. There were 26 cars in the train, and between two cars they had no trouble in escap- ing the notic: of Conductor Vickery. At Thamesville Brackett left this po- sition of safety, and his lack of ac- quaintance with' the road resulted in!| the collision between his head and the bridge, People on the bridge heard the Impact, and Officer Frank Hen- derson sent word to Bergeant Mat- thews, who telephoned to Yantie sta- tion to have the train_stopped there. This was done, and Brackett's dead Thomas H. Brackett, 35, of Worcester, Mass., Was Stealing a Ride on Central Vermont Freight—Sitting on Car, Back of Engine, West Side Bridge Fractured Skull—Identified by Companion and Norwich Man. ¢ v —tesasin ) Tk caness body was found on the roof of one of the care. Medical Examiner Rusi M, Kimball was notified by the station agent of the man’s death, and His exafitiation tended to show that death cafme in- stantaneously to the man who was rid= ing the freight. Then Undertaker Charles A, Gager was given charge of the body and he conveyed it to his morgue on Franklin street. Thomas Bennett, who was oh the train with Brackett, gave his story to the med- ieal examiner and later to the coroner, | and the detalls that he could supply | coineided with the initials T, H. B. ini- toed on his arm. Also attoed on his right arm was a pieture of u soidied gnd a gun with the words (‘uoa, 1908, and Phillppines 1800-1502, The body wags about § feet In height and weigh- ed 175 pounds, and was dressed after the usual manner of traveling men of | that class. | With Brackett was an umbtrella mending kit, which indicated his busi- ness, but there was nothing on his per- son to confirm his identity. On Friday evening, however, Frank A. Bliss of ‘Washington street, who formerly was a resident of Worcester, called at the morgue of Undertaker Gager and iden- tified the man. The Worcester police | were notified early in the day of the { man's death and were requested to | communicate with his relatives, but notieing had been heard by the coron- er or undertaker last night and noth- g by the police department at 3 o'clock this morning.

Light has given Tax Commissioner Willlam H. Corbin an important opinion relative to the taxation of bonds issued by bus- iness corporations in the state. The opinion is as follows: “In your favor requesting’ my opin- fon you say: ‘There seems to be an idea in some parts of the state that bonds issued by business corporations organized under general or special laws are exempt from taxation in this state. Will you kindly at your early convenience give me your opinion rel- ative to the taxability of bonds issued by mercantile and manufacturing cor- porations in this state? “In this state, unilke many of the states, we have na constitutional pro- vision limiting and defining the power | of taxation. Hence, an answer to your question must be found in our statutes, Mercantile and manufactur- ing corporations are taxed under sec- tions 2328 and 2320 of the general stat- utes on all of thelr property in this state, and the stockholders are ex- pressly exempt from assessment of taxation for their stock therein, when the whole property of the corporations is assessed and taxed in the sorporate names. And section 2323 provides, among other things, that all notes and bonds, not as issued by the United States, belonging to any resident of this state shall be set in his list in the town where he “resifles at their then actual valuation, except when otherwise provided. Here is unmis- takable authority for taxing the bonds of mercantile and manufacturing cor- porations in this state. “Therefore, I am of the opinion that all such bonds are taxable as the property of the persons holding them, except when otherwise provided by statute.” HOPE REBEKAHS AT DRAWBRIDGE.
