Connecticut e e e s company at Thamesville, was driving his two horse dump cart across u.e tracks of the Central Vermont railroad into the yard of the radiator com- Ppany, when the northbound passenger train’ due into this city at 813 o'clock,| struck the cart. The cart was empty | and was struck in such a manner as to be carried along on the. fender of the engine. The horses, which had passed over the track, were unhurt, but Mr. Shea. sitting on the wagon seat, was carried along with the cart for about 25 feet, when he fell off and landed beside the track. He was picked up and taken into the plant of the radiator company, and Dr. P. J. Cassidy, who was called, ordered ‘his removal to Backus hospital in the ambulance. Mr, Shea sustained a pos- sibie fracture of the skull and suffered considerably from the shock.

Before the trial began the state's attorney had all minors excluded from the court room, and at the request of Attorney Geary all the witnesses for the state were excluded from the court room except when testifying.

I, and Mystic for'the last 30 Years. 'He denied that there was ever any wrongdoing between him and any of the girls. He had known the Rathbun girl for about 4 vears he thought. He had known Helen Roscoe only recently. He used to let groups of the boys and girls go upstairs over the junk shop separately fo change their clothes when they were going in bathing. He went up afterwards to mop up the floor, but never with any of the girls, He denied absolutely all that the girl witnesses had testified fo as to any liberties he had_ taken with them and he told of having warned Leah Barraclough never to come to the shop again after one cer- tain immodest action on her part.

The wit- ness sald they might have been helped but he hesttated to tell whe he thought might have helped them. Counsel for the mccused objected to having this question asked and the state’s attor- ney did net press it, although Judge Shumway ruled that the guestion was permissible. The accused denled the Bpecific instance in which it had been testified that he took the Roscoe girl upstairs while Leah Barraclough waiched downstairs. Testified to Good Character. E_ F. Willlams, 10 vears selectman in_ Stonington, testified to the good reputation of Mr. Chute and said he had never heard of parents forbidding their children to go to the Chute place for several years before the present trouble because of its reputation.

Cornelius Miner, a teamster resident in Stonington all nis life, testified to the good reputation of Mr. Chute Postmaster Courtland C. Potter of Mystic gave similar testimony, but denied he had taken an active interest in these cases. He denled putting the Barraclough, Wierch and Roscoe girls out of the post office lobby on the day they were waiting for a trol- ley to go to Norwich for the trial of some of these Mystic cases. He ex- plained the circumstances under which he had told them the post office was no place for them to lounge around. Witness for the State. William Bendett, keeper of a Cloth- ing store in Mystic for 10 years. was put on the stand by the prosecution after the defense rested upon the con- clusion of Postmaster Potter's testi- mony at 4. He testifled to a conversation he heard in his store about 5 years ago against the reputation of Mr. Chute, but he could not tell now who it was. Both sides rested at 4.25 and Judge Milton A.

JORDAN TAKES LEAD IN ARCANUM POOL. Game From Tilly Put Him in First Place—Pierson B s Harweod. There were two interesting games at the Arcanum club In the handicap pool tourney since three of the scratch men, A. W. Tilly, F. C. Harwood and E. E. Pierson were engaged. Tilly was link- ed up agamst Alexander Jordan who is in the 90 class. The handicap proved too much for Tilly to overcome al- though he made some remarkably clever shots that puled him out of bad holes, but Jordan counted up his need- ed 90 and ran out when Tilly had just completed the century. This gives Jordan the lead in the tournament. In the Harwood-Pierson game, both men started rathe rnervous, showing it by slipping up on single shots. Har- wood got on his feet first and led Pler- son In the early stages of the game. But the West Side man was always in dangerous proximity to the leader. Both were scratch men, needing 120 to win. Approaching the 100 mark, Har- wood opened a gap of ten balls on his opponent, but plerson refused to lose his nerve again and kept plugging along so that he finely nosed out Har- wood at the finish and won by two points, 120 to 118. The game took nearly two hours. The Standing. The -following i sthe standin Won Lost Pe. W. L. Stearns.... (80) 1 8 .250 C.C.Smith ...... (80) 0 5 000 John T. Young ..
