In addition to the more mild cases he had five or six cases that were considered very serlous as well as a surgical case, i fact two surgioal cuses, while he was at the hospital. As far as cun be ascertained, not another physiclan in the city or town could have been induced to take the place at the isolation hospital at any figure and 3200 per week is consid- ered little enough for the services of an expert on smallpox. The town of Windham paid its health officer, Dr. F. B. Wilcox, something like $500 or $600 besides his salary as town health officer for the part he took in the care of the smallpox patients during the epidemic. A few of the town's patients were also sent to the isolation hospital and cared for by Dr. Keating. The cases that were reported to the town au- thorities numbered somo eight or ten and those reported to and cared for by the city were approximately 100, or at least ten times as many. Dr, Keating’s many friends feel that he is warranted in presenting the bill he did at the meeting of the board of alderman Monday evening, $4,469.90. TO NORWICH TOURNAMENT. Rogue Club Chooses Two Delegates, Spellman and Fenton. The Willimantic Roque Club at its annual meeting elected officers as fol- | lows: President, A. D. Spellman; vice- | president, Dr. R. C. White; secretary | and treasurer, A. W, French. The members voted to send their president, A. D. Speliman, and Frank P. Fenton as the club’s representatives in_ the national tournament at Norwich.” Mr. Spellman is a very good player and has shown marked improvement in form over last year. Mr. Fenton is what might be termed and “in and outer,” playing in remarkable form some days and on other occasions playing very poorly. The members feel confident, however, that Mr. Fen- ton will make a most creditable show- ing in the tournament and for that reason chose him as their second rep- resentative. POMOLOGICAL FIELD DAY, State Experts in Apple Culture Ga- ther at Storrs. The Connecticut Pomological society held its annual field meeting' Tuesday at the Connecticut Agricultural college at_Storrs.

Woodward Candidate for Vice President of State Financial Miss R. Firemen's Wickersham Wants to Know Whether the Practice Violates Law. ‘Washington, Aug. 13.—A collateral phase of the so-called money trust. it developed today, is being investigated by Attorney General Wickersham. The inquiry, which may affect clearing house associations throughout the country, revolves about the rule of the New York Clearing House asso- ciation requiring its members to charge a specified sum for the collec- tion of out of town checks drawn on certain parts of the country and at the same time giving them discretion whether to make charges for similar collections in other localities. A care- ful and thorough study of the working of this rule is being made by the at- torney general, it is said, to determine whether the Sherman anti-trust law or the national bank act is being vio- lated. 1If action is taken, it will stand as a precedent for all clearing house asgociations having similar rules. While officials of the department of justice are reticent in regard to the inquiry, it is learned that the attor- ney general may refer the whole ques- tion to the secretary of the treasury for remedial measures through tht Belonged to Summer express, or steam railroads.
