Great Seal of State Not Attached. At the secretary of state's office it was sald that the pardon papers had not passed through that department as is required, therefore the greai seal of the state could not have been attached to them according to the usual routine, Unofficially it was stated the gover- nor's privy seal was substituted for e great seal.

Sept. 2.—The scene at the offices Coroner Mix, wha had spent the at the wreck and making @ round of the hospitals, when he returned this evening to pre- pare a list of the dead, was similar to that Rome years ago, when the Charles Kdwa shooting inquest was on. A score <of newspapermen besieged his offices trying to get something aefinlie.

A number of witnesses were present, Including Dr Joslin of North Haven, who had talked with many of the infured while they were awaiting ambulances, George W.

The description of a young woman who wore the pin of Yale's senior. so- clety of Scroll ‘and Key at once came to the attention of many Yale men. Burnside Winsiow, _former basebali captain, and Morin S. football piayer, with Deputy Coroner Ely and oshers, called upon the cor- oner.
