Searls announced at the short calendar ses- sion of the superior court in this city Friday that Tuesday, May 13 a grand Jury would hear the evidence in the case of Willls D. Lambert, of Killing- ly, the negro who has confessed to the murder of his wife, and an indict- ment will follow. From the present facts in the case, State’s Attorney Searls is of the impression that he ask for an indictment of mur- der in the second degree, involving the penalty of life imprisonment. Lambert is 60 years old and It is thought that life imprisonment would hardly ‘be more severe than the penalty for manslaughter, which he would be likely to receive’ If Lambert enters a plea of guilty, as is anticipated, the case would probably be tried in_ this. city directly after the session of the grand ju If he pleads not gulity, the state’s attorney may ask to have the case tried in Putnam.

DANIELSON Rhode Island Company to Get a Prod from Town Officials—Burial of Dr. In the opinion of some local officials the time for an ultimattim to the Rhode Island company relative to the daily blockading of a section of lower Main etreet by express cars and teams that stop opposite the freight station of the company in the Winkieman building is at hand. For several months past efforts have been made by the Business Men's association and by others to have the difficulty abated. Conferences with trolley road officials were held and it was assumed by the local men who participated in the same that the cause of complaint would be remedied by the erection of a trolley freight station at a point where there would be no complaint about congestion. The business men who are injured in the way of trade by the blockading of street and sidewalk at the freight station have waited patlently for the relief they feit confildent would be given them, but nothing has been done by the trolley road people. ‘Warden W. I. Bullard sald Friday that he has written a letter to the lo- cal representative of the Rhode Island company setting forth that he has re- celved a number of complaint about the obstruction of the sidewalk where the cars load and unload at the trol- ley freight station. Unless the re- quests for a discontinuance of the nuisance is abated within 30 days, or action to abate it started within that time, Warden Bullard says he will place an officer on duty to see that the walk is not blockaded and will also ask for an injunction restraining the company from the practice that has been the cause of all the complaint. FUNERALS. Dr. Putnam Brinley. The body of Dr. Putnam Brinley, aged 87, who died Wednesday night at the Hartford retreat, where he had been for 27 years, was buried Friday at noon in_the cemetery at Trinity church on Church etreet, in Brooklyn. Rev. James H. George, Jr. paster of St. Alban's church, officiated at the services. A number of relatives and friends came here from Hartford te attend the funeral. Dr. Brinley was the son of George and Catherine Brinley. He was grad- uated at Trinity college and took & physician's degree at the University of Pennsylvania. Later Dr. Brinley studied in Paris. He leaves H. K. Morgan of New York_and Dr. William D. Morgan of Hartford, nephews, and Miss Emily Morgan, a niece; also Charles A. Brin- ley of Philadelphia, a nephew, and Miss Ellen Brinley of Colorado Springs, a niece. John Drabble. Funeral services for John Drabble were held at his home in the Elmville section of the town Friday afternoon at 1 o'clock. Rev. James H. George Jr. officiating. The quartette of St Alban’'s church, Mrs. W. C. Bacon, Miss Clara Brooks, Alfred L. Reed and Earl Winslow, sang at the service. Burial was in the cemetery at Da ville. Loufs E. Kennedy was in charge of the funeral arrangements. Committee Organizes. The manufacturers’ cofmittee of the Board of Trade has organized with Warden W. I. Bullard as chairman and | Nathan D.” Prince as secretary. This committee consists of C. W. Youug, W. E. Fitts, Charles A. Hyde, repre- senting manufacturing concerns, C. A. Young, Damase Boulies, George S. Brown and F. A. Kennedy. The committee's programme is to en- courage the extension and improve- ment of the business of manufacturing concerne at present located here, to ald In securing new industries and to do all possible for the industrial wel- fare of Danielson. A sub-committee composed of Messrs, Brown, Young (C. W.) and Boulias has been appointed to secure @ lst of plants and sites available for new industries. The com- mittee is not to exploit promotion schemes or individual ambitions, but will work along conservative and practical lines. MURDERED WOMAN BURIED. Wife of Willis B. Lambert Finds Grave in Town Cemetery at Dayville. After funeral services held at the un- | dertaking rooms of L. E. Kennedy Fri- | day afternoon, the battered and muti- lated body of Mrs. Julla Lambert, | kliled by her husband, Willis D. Lam- | bert, was laid at rest in the town's | cemetery at Dayville. The selectmen | of Killingly made the arrangements | for the funeral, the expense of which will be borne by the town of Pomfret, where the Lambert family lived for years. Life Sentence Probabl. There were no developments relative der during I'riday, but much spe: Lat penalty Lam- | bert wiil be calied upon to pay for his | heinous crime. Men of legal training | hazara the opinion that Lambert will get a life sentence, as a conviction of " murder in the second degree is looked | for, this opinion being based on the {lack of premediation on the part of the prisoner in connection with the | crime, which was one of the most ‘brutal in the history of this county. A long trial is not looked for. At | no time since hig arrest has Lambert attempted to deny that he is guilty of | the crime with which he is charged. He has admitted the act to the vari- | ous efficers who have questioned him | &bout it, to the coroner and to others | whe have had an opportunity to ques- tion him on the subject. > | A peculiar quality of Lambert's at- | titude since his arrest is his willing- ness to be questioned about his crime, yet, while he answers, and directly, anything, however persenal, about the affalr, he always does se as briefly as possible, though mot curtly. On some Qetalls he is uncertain as to just what did occur, this very prebably being due %o his condition at the time the crime was committed, his brain not accurate- Iy retaining a record of all that trans- pired during the night of horrer, lLambert expresses regret mechanic- ally, though it is undoubtedly genuine. "These who have known him for years say he Is a peaceable man when he is | himself, and his looks give much weight te that statement. His face has none of the degenerate details that one expects to find and is apt to as- soclate with a person who could be guilty of such a crime as that for which Lambert is to be tried. The Putnam Brinley—Murdered Mrs. | Willis Lambert Buried—Prisoher Quiet at Jai prisoner’s is a pleasant face and indi- cates a normally sunny nature. Lambert has shown little or no in- terest in the fate that awaits him. After his night in the local police sta- tion he admitted in answer to a ques- tion that he had not slept well and he was manifestly under a severe ner- vous tension. At the county jail in Brooklyn Friday afternoen an officlal said that Lambert had had little to say since he arrived there. He had slept well and was taking his meals regu- larly. However harshly he may be judged, Lambert is not a whimperer. At no time since his arrest has he attempted to lay any part of the blame for the murder on other than his own shoul- ders. He has shown no incHnation to plead for mercy. He blames his wild Jealousy and intoxicated condition and the alleged (on his part) infidelity of his wife for the abhorrent situation in which he finds Himeelf. ‘The man seems stunned by his own horrible act of viclence and destruction.
