After Mayor T. C. Murphy had call- ed the meeting to_ order, and Clerk Stephen D. Moore had read the call, the mayor- said he ‘wished to explain the condition Norwich was in tonight, and stated that the petition was the same as made in June for 38,500, but the city meeting then voted unani- mously for $5000 for this hassam pavement In Franklin street. The mayor gave these figures of appropri- | ations voted by the city meeting in | June: Paving Franklin street, $5,000; improving Lake street dump, $30 macadamizing or repairing Washing- ton street, $10,000; G. W. Carroll for Franklin street widening, $2,000; Sa- chem street paving, $3,850, a total of $20,950. In addition to this there was pald on December 26, 1911, the sum of $29,000 for widening Market and Bhetucket street, making a total with the other of $49,950. This petition tonight, he said, was not called for by the court of common council. We are about to pay the last instalment on the Stony brook reservoir and there is approximately $14,625 interest alone to be met on the Stony brook proposition. No one imagines that extra revenue from the reservolr will anywhere near pay the interest. All the water that we are now us- ing, he sald he had learned from the ‘water department, wag being supplied now by the old Fairview reservoir, and it can be seen that the city will go shy that $14,000 in interest this year. “It's up to you,” he told the 100 voters before him, and he awaited a motion. The first matter in the warning was upon the petition for an appro- priation of $3,500 to extend the Frank- lin street pavement from Oak street to Grove street. After a short wait following Mayor Murphy’s statement, F. J. Leavens moved that this peti- tien be denied. W. H. Murphy sec- onded the motion, which was passed by a viva voce vote. Mayor Murphy called for the vote twice to make sure of it and on the second time was satisfied to declare the motion carried. Corporation Counsel Joseph T. Fan- ning then offered and moved the adop- .

A footpath on which the men have been working for about three weeks has been completed, extending from the head of McKinley avenue through the edge of the woods parallel with Rockwell street up to the path which enters the park opposite the former Hoffman property, From this latter DPath thero has been completed a short path to the main Rockwell street en- trance. These new ways make a clean shady walk into the grounds frem McKinley avenue, and save the pub- lio from the necessity of walking up the poor path en Rockwell street.

While at work on the new building in process of construction at the Nor- wich State hospital Tuesday afternoon Joseph Grice, a bricklayer, known as “Scotty” by his fellow workmen, was struck in the middle of the back by a brick thrown by an Itallan, whose only known title is “Patsy,” and was rendered unconscious. The injured man was taken to the Backus hos- pital and {t was several hours before he regained consciousness. Appar- ently no bones were broken and it is believed that no serious results will be experienced. Late. Tuesday eve- ning he was reported as resting com- fortably. It 18 understood that the brick- throwing was the result of an encoun- ter earlier in the day. After some al- tercation, the other workmen stated, the Italian struck Grice and got the worse of the fight which followed. Beeking revenge, when Grice's back wag turned, “Patsy” threw the brick, hitting the former squarely in the back between the shoulders. The Italian at once disappeared, going up the Laurel Hill road. The police were notified of the occurrence and set out on the trail of the man, but up to a late hour Tuesday night he had not been’ located. “Patsy” was not known to the local police, and it is believed that he has been in town but a few months, at most. Grice has been employed at the hos- pital as a bricklayer for several months. He is about 25 years old: SUIT AGAINST PRZESTRZELSKI. Legal Proceedings in U. 8.
