The attorneys and their assist- ants made a complete recount of. thé ballots here on Tuesday in the state’s attorney’s room adjoining the superior court room. They began at about 10 o'clock in the morning and were fin- ished with the ballot boxes in all five districts at about 3.45 p. m. The recount was conductéd by At- to! Herbert D. Rathbun, represent- ing the republic, Henry Stahle, who has been declared elected, and by At- torney F'. L. McGuire, representing the democrat, J. W, Chesebro, who has been declared defeated and who is the etitioner for a recount. Each attorney ad two assistants. Guire did not concede that fact. Al- lowing that two-thirds of the new dis- puted ballots were republican, Attor- ney Rathbun still claimed that a big proportion of them were without doubt perfectly legally ballots and he ex- pected that the result-of the recount woulq show that Mr. Stahle was elect- ed by even larger figures than before. As an example of how so many more disputed ballots turned uyp in the re- count than in the original count, he made the statement that Byron: J. Peckham, who was the moderator, was now raising a question on 16 ballots in the Pawcatuck district where there had been none disputed before. By districts the disputed ballots rg- vealed by the recount were as follows: first, 20; second, 49; third, 3; fourth, ifth, 4.

Postoffice Has Received Rulings on Certain Classes. James D. Lynch of New York city, who has his summer home in lower Pequot avenue, New London, in a let- ter and petition presented to the court of common council there Monday night unfolded a plan for a direct drive from the union station to Ocean Beach. The proposition was referred to a com- mittee. The intent of the plan is to relleve the congested condition of Bank street in the summer months when the usual business traffic on that thoroughfare is increased by the automobile and carriage travel to and from the Pe- quot. Briefly, the plan provides for vehicles coming from the station, up State and down Washington, carrying Washington through to Reed street, removing the parklet on which stand the grocery store of the Edward Keefe estate and the saloon of the John St. John estate, cutting off Dart’s corner, making the curve at the Howard street cut less sharp and thus opening up a direct and safe route right through from the center of the city to the Pe- quot colony. AUXILIARY APPROPRIATIONS. Postmaster William Caruthers has received .a communication from the postal department at Washington con- taining some specific rulings regarding certain classes of parcels post matter. The most important concern the rates established on seeds and plants, and the classification of third class matter. Seeds, cuttings, bulbs, roots, sclons and plants will, when the new arrange- ments have been put in force, be per- mitted in the parcels post at a postage rate of one cent for each two._ounces or fraction thereof regardless of dis- tance. This apparently means that an exception has been made in the case of this particular class to the general scheme of dividing the country into zones. Another ruling decides that “all matter now classified as third class matter will not be permitted in the parcels post mails.” Third class matter, which includes what is known as miscellaneous printed matter, will continue to cost one cent for every two ounces or fraction.

The g was also given that tramps cep away from that city. The result is that most of the towns in Plainfield neighborhood are over h strangers who have drifted this way from other parts of the state and have crossed the line from Rhode Isl- and and Massachusetts. The railroad men are driving them off the tracks and out of freight cars and thisitends to send the tramps along the highways to the worriment of the farmers and their familie .

Of this it was voted to use 150 towards improving and furnishing the dormitories, $55 for fou redditional dining tables, table linen and silverware, $35 for a stere- opticon machine, which is to be pre- sented to the association.

B8 Frankiin Street nmflmhmuhnxm u don't know Cincinnati, Dec. 3.—A discussion of the “organization of a national high- way department” consumed the great- er part of the session of the sixth an- nual convention of the American Road Builders’ association here today.

Van. derbilt had promised an’endowment of half a million dollars for the Blg Sis- ters movement for the care of wayward and homeless girls was made today by the Big Sisters organization, It was declared that Mrs. Vanderbilt had been carrying almost the entire financial burden of the moyement from its start, Motion Pictures in State Prison, Jollet, Ill, Dec. 3.—Convicts eld"and young Jaughed and applauded lke.ehil. dren today when the first of a serles of weekly motion plcture entertainments was given at the state prison by War- den E. J, Murphy. Two comedies and one Swiss Alps scene were shewn, Only a few of the spectators ever had seen a motion plcture tajns that criminals should ordinarily. be punished by subjection to Bome form of suffering; the other than they should ordinarily not be made to suffer for their misdeeds except as nature forces it upon them through the mind, but that their treatment by the state should be almed primarily at their morgl improvement. “There is a certain crime of which one seldom speaks,” Governor Baldwin continued. “Its very name has come to be banished from our newspapers. Yet the thought of it is a daily terror to every woman in the south and brings a sense of uneasiness and con- straint into the life of her northern sisters. It is the cause of most of those Iynching cases which disgrace our civiiization. It is to be kept'down only by the severest methods. “Is it too much to say if the courts are not ready to apply these, the peo- ple will? The people who may thus bring some ruffian to his death will not be the best people in the commu- nity. They may occasionally seize the ‘wrong man. But has a conviction ever yvet been had in the United States of any one of a mob of lynchers for hanging a negro accused of rape? “Fhat crime does a wrong to a wo- man which many of them have deemed worse than death. Such a man is no fit subpect for an indeterminate sen- tence. He has proved his inherent ‘weakness of will power. In every clear case of rape, iir my judgment, there should be an operation of steriliza- tion.” 4 “A wife-beater, or the burglar who uses torture t6 compel his victims to produce their valuables, ought to suf- fer a certain punishment which he may know beforehand. It seems to me that the prospect of a whipping— of course a moderate and private one would often best answer that purpose. Particularly is this true of boys. A sound whipping is the remedy that the world has always recognized as belonging to their time of life. “There is a crime still meaner than that to which I have alluded, that a man can commit towards the weaker sex. It is when he lures a child into dishonor, The penalty to be measured out for any act must be partly deter- mined from ifs natural consequences. This act, thérefore, it might be ar- gued, is not ome to be punished as rape or murder-is. But a sentence to mere imprisonment seems to me a very inadequate one. If every such offender were also smartly whipped, I believe there would soon be fewer of them. BANK CASHIER GIVEN FIVE YEARS' SENTENCE. Disappeared from Earlville, N. Y, Leaving'a Shortage of $40,000, Utlea, N, Y., Dec, 3.—Guy H, Oldrk, former eashier of the First National bank of Earlville, Madison eeunty, te- day pleaded zum‘?' to grand lareeny and was sentenced to five years in the federal prison at Atlanta, - Olark disappeared in 1911, leaving a shortage of $40,000, and was arrested In Portland, Ore, last Novemier, Hickey Secured Loan from President of Boston W. C. T. U. Boston, Dec. Saying that he wanted to make himself “right with God,” J. Frank Hickey, the confessed boy murderer, went to the headquar- ters of the Massachusetts Woman's Temperance union on Nov. 11 and in the presence of Mrs. Katharine Lent Stevenson, president of the union, prayed for forgiveness. Mrs. Steven- son said today that she gave Hickey $3 to help pay his fare from this city to New York. He said that he had a friend in' New York who would fur- nish him with transportatien to Whit- ing, N. J., where a week later he was arrested, charged with the murder of Joseph” Joseph of Lackawanna, N. Y. * Hickey, when he appeared at the temperance union, told Mrs. Stevenson that he had been drinking for ten days and that he was sorry for his debauch. He presented a letter signed by the superintendent of an inebriate asylum at Whiting which showed that he had been an inmate there and that he could return if he wished. FOUND NOTHING BUT HOLE IN THE GROUND. Waterbury Man Visited Hawthorne’s Mines After Buying Stock. New York, Dec. 3.—Nothing but a hole in the .ground,” was what Johp M. Henderson of Waterbury, Conu., saw when he visited the Temaga Cobalt mines, one of the pro: promoted by Julian Hawthorne and others, on' trial for using the mails to defraud. Henderson, & mechanical en- gineer, so testified today, stating that he had paid $480 for 1,250 shares in Temagami Cobalt and also had sub- scribed for 1,200 shares of Elk Lake Cobalt, another Hawthorne property. The witness sald he visited the Te- magami mines in June, 1910, and found that work had ceased and that all the mining machines were being packed up readi for shipment. “What did you see in the way of mines or mining?” asked the federal prosecutor. “Nothing but a hole in the ground,” replied the witness, A prima facle case “that several persons were induced to part with real money for stock of the Temagami Co- balt mines seems to have been suffi- clently established,” was a ruling by Judge Hough after several.other wit- nesses had testified along this line. The court held it was unnecessary to put in further gimilar evidence.
