GREENIEELLE NEWS Sixth Street Health Officer Lewis—Tenants Have Moved Out and Located Elsewhere— Notes and Personals. Six tide, W’ The city health officer is now em- powered to order closed or repaired all houses which endanger the health of the public by an act passed in the last legislature. The big brick block on Sixth street known as “The Ba racks,” which has been the source of a large part of .the scoriet fever cas discovered in Greenev recently, has been ordered closed by City Health Officer Lewis. Although the house was thoroughly fumigated by the health officer after each case, the fever germs Seem not to have been killed, and Di Lewis is of the opinion that the hous is too old for effective fumigation. As the result of the order house the several families quartered there had to find tenements elsewhere, Two of the families, in one of which the scarlet rever cases developed, have | moved from the building to 274 Central | venue.

The cruise will start today 40_mile run to Newport. Yachts began arriving with the dawn of day and the red and green lights of the late comers were twink- ling at the harbor mouth long after da Among the early boats were the Boston schooner Taormina and the bark rigged steamer Aloha from New- port, and at noon the black Corsair, the largest in the fieet, steamed into the harbor. The Larchmont fleet put in an ap- pearance during the afternoon in a long. slow race from New Haven with the Elena far in the lead, a winner by more than an hour over the drolita. The flagship Muriel won in the smaller schooner class, while the P. bBoat Stranger, owned by R. L. Jenks of Providence, defeated the New Joseph- ne, owned by A. D. Hanan of New York, by less than a minute. The Bos- ton Knockabout sloop Dorello 1T scored a_decisive victory over her rival, Medora, of New York. Commodore Smithers signalled for the dishandment of the Larchmont fleet at 6 o'clock, and just before that hour the flagship Sea Kox of the New York fleet sailed quietly into the harbor from Newport. For the next few minutes there plenty of firing, for all the New York boats had to salute the Sea Fox when she anchored, and as soon as the Larchmont fleet broke those yachts went through the ceremony of, firing more guns, hauling down the bhie and white flags and setting the New York colors. Commodore Pratt of the New in a York talns on board the flagship for evening reception, but principally settle minor details of the cruise. The race today to Newport to will | be for the cups offered by Rear Com- | | | Gr: modore J. P. Morgan of the sloop -ayling, and it is expected that near- 1y 50 vachts will join in the sport | The Larchmont fieet complained to- | da$ of the lizht winds against which ound. The brecze tronger than | runs from down the | today was somewh: | vesterday. but it was fully as uncer tain, and it was the skipper who first smeit the new breeze that won the ace. Commodore Pratt assured his New York yachtsmen at he had arranged for strong winds and clear skies for the next nine days and had every rea- s0n to believe that the club's weather expert would keep the agreement Progress in the War Game., At 9.30 Monday morning the battle- Mimic War in the Sound and Arrival of N Make Nearby Waters Center of Interest—Fort Wright's Searchlights Repulsed Night Attack by Sea the | club then set signals inviting all cap- | an | ew York Yacht ships Utah, Delaware, Florida and North Dalkota appeared in the offing and at @ distance of 10,000 yards opened fire on Fort Wright. With a roar like that of a thunder storm In the moun- tains the guns on the island fort re- piled. An advance on the part of the black fleet meant certain annihilation and after an hour's firing the battle- ships withdrew and peace settled down temporarily on the island. But how long that condition will last nobody knows save Rear Admiral Badger, in command of the enemey’s fleet, and he is not saying anything about it . A watch that does not cease for even a fraction of a second is |'maintained from the fortifications and it is doubtful if a sea gull could get by_without creating an alarm. Notwithstanding that . there are in | the neighborhood of 20,000 men on board the ships and at the island forts, no accident has been reported and every precaution is taken to avold mishaps. The health of the men is also carefully looked after. While the destroyers cruised back and forth in the evening a continual fire from their four and five inch guns was directed at the searchlights, the object of which was of course to put them out of business. It is doubtful if this could have been done under the | grilling fire from the forts, Blockade is Established. Monday afternoon a blockade was established by the black fleet to pre | vent els ‘from passing back and | forth to carry possible information ana | during the ensuing hours four dread- noughts passed and repassed Foris | Wright and Michie, carrying on a { bombardment at long range.

Searchlights Repel Night Attacks. Tuesday night soon after 10 o'clock two torpedo boat destroyers streaked in by Fort Wright, but the apparently | infallible searchlights picked them out, and the boats were thwarted in their attempt to pass the fortification: | Between 10.30 and 11 o'clock a group | of battleships went in by Fort Terry. | | The searchlights, detected them, and | that altempt, too, was unsuccessful. _ater two torpedo boat destroyers went to close the|they have had to conend in the two | by ort Wright, but again the powerful earchlights performed valiant detec- tiye duty ar d sighted the ships as they | tried under the darkness of the night | to_met by the defensas | “Fort Terry has figured but little in the game, and it was fgured that the | attack by the battleships last night was simply to give the artillerymen their | practice and to test the defense ap- { paratus at the fort.

A WOULD BE SUICIDE AT STATE HOSPITAL. This Man Dove Under the Wheels of a Norwich-Bound Automobile. Three passed insane, for in— an automobile state asvium for the Norwich the lat- ter part of last week and noticed just south of the hospital grounds that a stranger was standing close t. the roadside. As the car approached the man he doubled himself up for a leap and landed di- rectly on front or the automoblle. Be- fore ‘the machine could be stopped it had passed over the would-be sui- cld’s body. All three cf the oceu- pants of the car got out, expecting to find a case for the coroner. The man who had been tun over £ot up brushed the _dirt from his clothes -and inquired of the autoists: men the “Is your machine dwnaged?’ They told “him it was not. They reached the nearest telephone as quickly as possible and notified the hospital, which had already started attendants in a search for the stray patient. The man was found, put to bed and ex- amined. He was slightly bruised by contact h the automobile wheels. w Another Colony on Fishers Island.

Dimerio has been in the county jall since last week When he ‘was brought from New York by_extradition, i “Dimerlo was arraigned before Jus- tice of the Peace Marion R. Davis at Niantic, the case having been contin- ued from last wednesday night. He was charged with highway robbery and assault with intent to Kill.( Prosecuting Attorney Warren B. Burrows presented oniy one witness for the state, Phillp Feraci, a self confessed member of the gang Who turned state's cvidence at the trial of the others. Feraci testified that Di- merlo was one of the five Italians who held up Mason and, Messenger early Sunday morning, Aug. 4. of last year. The accused was not defended. Justice of the Peace Davis found probable cause and bound the accused over to the higher court. He ordered bonds of $3,000, in default of which the accused was taken to ail. Dimerio is the last of {he gang of Ttalian highwaymen participating in the holdup a yvear ago. Mason and Messenger were driving along the road toward the Niantic station for Sunday papers about 4 o'clock in the morning when they were held up by the gang. Mason and Messenger both put up a fight. Mason got.out of the wagon and was shot in the abdomen. Dimerio, it Is alleged ,is the member of the gang to have fired the shot. So close were the shots fired to Mason that the powder burned his clothing. All of the gang with the exception of Dimerfo was captured next day. Dimerio escaped and although officers were hot on his trall three or four times, he succeeded in keeping out of the clutches of the law. He was cap- tured geveral days age in New York by detectives at the Instance of State Policemen Vireli and Downing. He was extradicted last week WINTERGREEN POINT.
