King of Eastford was heard by a delegation from the local G. A. R. post and by members of the local camp of Sons of Veterans, when he gave his Gettysburg address at the Congregational church here Wednes- day evening. The address is one of the finest things of its kind being deliver- ed, as Rev. Mr. King is a veteran and uhas lived in Gettysburg. There was evidence in Putnam Wed- nesday that led the police to believe that the burglars that visited here Monday night tried their game in that place Tuesday night. Commissioners to Meet Wednesday. County Commissioners E. H. Cort- tis, B. H. Hall and F. O. Davis will be in Danielson next Wednesday for the purpose of granting licenses. Tues- day the commissioners are to meet in Putnam for the same purpose and Friday they will be in Moosup, where they go to grant druggists’ licenses for the town of Plainfleld. The dates that the commissioners will be in Sterling and Windham two other license towns of the county, have not been announced. Send Holiday Parcels Early! At the local postoffice as at all offices of fmportance in this section of the state the parcel post business is grow- ing by leaps and bounds. Postmaster C. A. Potter has already recelved noti- fication from the postoffice depart- ment to request patrons to ship Christmas packages 10 to 12 days be- fore the holiday, as Indications are ‘that the department will be swamped 1s required to insure timely delivery. ‘What {8 true in the postoffices must wheré many clerks are getting loads of parcel post matter to handle and oft- en have more than they can cope with. On a recent evening a train through Danlelson was carrying parcel post matter in a baggage car of the train on account of the crowded condition of the malil car. Retrenchment or Higher Tax Rates. “Killingly will be in the hands the usurers within a few years unless retrenchment is practiced in expendi- tures or more money is produced revenue through increased taxation” is the way one prominent citizen sizes up the local situation. At present the tax rate in this-town is 12 mills and the assessment basis on the grand per- centage of property is full value of property. Many citizens advocate a careful study of the town's financial condition that it may be Kept in proper standing. Their belief is that expen- ditures must positively be limited or the tax rate raised: that there are no other solutions: There is a bright spot in the consideration of this question, though, for there will be a material in- crease in the grang list of the town this year, it is understood, which means an increased amount of revenue. Thoughtful and Practical Charity. From the Congregational church, where a special collection was taken and from the Baptist church and from generous and thoughtful individuals there has come to Warden W. I. Bul- lard this week gifts of money to be useq in charitable work among needy persons in Danielson who are con- fined_to their homes by illness. War- den Bullard has been using the mon- ey for the purchase of fruit and other things that wwould prove tempting to persons in ill health and for toys with which the children shut- ins may amuse themselves. This is a feature of relief work that is being ac- cepted with gratitude by all of the beneficiaries and is applauded by all interested in their fellow men. Watching Out For Thieve: The police in all the towns in thls section are now on the alert to capture the perpetrators of a series of burg- |laries, or near-ones that have oc- curred in Danielson, Dayville and Put- nam during the present week. No losses of a serious nature have oc- curred as the result of the breaks, but there has been some slight damage to property and the creation of an un- rest that is not relished. It is a pe- cullar fact that the places where at- tempts to enter or where entries have actually been effected are ones where a person could not hope to get much money, but the officers feel that there s no ‘telling where the next breaks are to be and they have decided to make a special effort to catch the thieves, .

No More Arrests Just Now. It is not expected that there are to be any more arrests in the Moosup | case that is interesting county people until after the trial of Greenler and' Vallont who pleaded not guilty in the superior court at Putnam Wednesda: These cases will follow the arson case, which commences next Tuesday. More rumors are afloat this week over the establisfiing of a trolley ex- | press service between Norwich and | Danielson and Putnam but nothing defi- nite has been given out on the matte; The roll call and supper of the West- fleld Congregational church is set for this (Thursday) evening. The D. and P. Gas and Electric com- pany has completed the building of its lines to Brooklyn and is now supply- ing light to that village, which never has enjoyed electric lighting privileges. Sore Arm Week. Warning: Don’t slap and pound your friends by way of greeting or in exultation over some particularly joy- ous thing. There are hundreds of sore arms in town just now and it doesn't do them any good to be hammered. PUTNAM Grand Jury Fails to Find True Bill Against Mrs. James P. Lawson—At- torney Howarth Pleads Not Guilty —State Prison for Minerva—Moosup Men Deny Serious Charge, Amanda Ulrika Lawson, brought from the jail at Brooklyn on Wed- nesday to have her case considered bty a grand jury, the charge being murder in the first degree, walked out of the superior court room a free woman early in the evening. The grand jury did not filnd a true bill, 80 reported through the foreman, Attorney Elbert torney Charles E. Searls nolled the case. This result was achieved after the jury had been out for about six hours and a half—from 11 a, m. t, about 5.30 p. m. While nothing was given out as ‘o what occurred before the grand jury during the time it was in session. there were certain indications to point to the nearly unanimous belief among the grand jurors that a true bill in against the accused. 3 The outcome came as something of a startler to the spectators who had been walting about the ceurt room sll the afternoon for a report on the case. Mrs Lawson, wan and pale and a fradl little woman, smiled faintly when the announcement was made to her, but made no statement. Soon after necessary had been taken by the court she left for her home in Woodstock. Mrs. Lawson was arrested in Sep- that she had murdered her husband, Jonas P. Lawson, at their home in Woodstock on the night of Saturday, August 14, Mrs. Lawson suffered a severe attack of heart trouble soom after her husband’s death and was Il at her home for several weeks and under the care of a nurse Since she was formally charged with the crime there has been a world of sentiment for her in Woodstock, where she has always been regarded as an honest, hard-working woman. The testimony given at the inquest conducted by Coroner A. G. Bill tend- ed to demonstrate that Lawson, on the night of his death, was struck over the head with a club, probably as he was coming up the stairway from the cellar and that the body probably roll- ed back down the steps, A trail of blood led from the cellar out the bulk- head exit and over the ground to the barn, where Mrs. Lawson found the body lying on the floor and a horse, released from his stall, walking about. It was at first belleved that the horse had kicked Lawson to death. Mrs. TLawson summoned aid from neighbor- ing homes, as she was all alone at the place when she found her husband's body, their son and daughter being away At Wednesday’s session the grand jury heard various witnesses as to certain facts connected with the case, but it was evident from the finding that they did not feel justified in bringing in a true bill. The grand ju- rors, the list of which was printed in Wednesday's Putnam news, was con- sidered as able a body of men as has been assembled in the capacity in which they acted in this county in years. Mrs. Lawson stood the strain of the day well, though her physician re- mained.in the court building to give her any ald that might be needed. PLEADS NOT GUILTY. Attorney Frank E. Howarth, Charged with Arson, to Be Tried Nov. 4 and at Willimantic. Attorney Frank Howarth plead- ed not guilty when presented in the superior court here Wednesday before Judge Williams, the charge against him being the setting of a series of fires in this city, the first of these belng on October 80, & year ago t day, the last on April 25 of this year There were 15 counts in the long complaint read to the prisoner by Clark Edgar M. Warner, these counts being the same as in the one on which the bench warrant for the arrest of At- torney Howarth was issued a few weeks ago. Lindley H. Cain, former messenger of the superior court, named jointly with Attorney Howarth in the charges preferred by the state, was In the court, but was not put to plea, The trial of the case of Atterney Howarth was set by the court to com- i1 the jury up with the court the matter of the ass| ient State Attorney Charles E. Bearls said that the case would prob- ably require considerable time for trial perhaps a week, and he felt that it should be commenced on a Tuesday. Attorney Searls expressed himself as being in favor of trying the case In Putnam, as nearly all of the witnesses are residents in or near this city and this fact together with the convenience of the witnesses and the saving of expense to the state were considera- tions leading him to advocate trying the case here Instead of at Williman- tic, unless there be some very good reason for going to the latter city; the attorney for the state sald also that he realized there is a feellng in Willimantic that cases should be tried in that city during the time the court is In session there. Attorney Samuel B. Harvey, repre- senting Attorney Howarth as counsel, said ‘he understood that the state at- torney had already agreed with him to try the case in Willimantie, and also Attorney Harvey expressed him- self as favoring Willimantic owing to the natural degree of excitement that had been caused in Putnam by the arrest of his client and by reason of the nature of the accusation. “I am | much surprised to hear:the state at- torney suggest Putnam,” said Attor- ney Harvey. Attorney Searls, in reply, stated to the court that he may have had some talk with Attorney Harvey relative to trying the case at Willimantic, but that he had not entered into a formal agreement to do so. I belleve” con- timued Mr, Searls, “that there is no untoward sentiment or hostility against either Howarth or Cain in Putnam, but rather a feeling of uncertaimty, astonishment and waiting. I do not believe this would have any effect on a jury In the case. I do not ca particularly where the case is tried, but there is no reason to believe that the prisoners would not get a fair trial in Putnam. I would favor hold- ing the trial here on the grounds of economy to the state and for the con- venience of the witnesse: Attorney Harvey, following Attor- ney Searis, stated to the court that| he belleved it almost impossible to get | a fair trial of the case in Putnam un- | closest supervision by the ing all of the trial the inference being that Attorney Harvey feared that many of the stories that circulate gbout the case in thi8 city might come to the ears of the jurors. Judge Williams suggested to Attor- ney Harvey that the matter of econ- omy should be considered. Attorney Harvey replied that he believed that there were other considerations that overbalanced economy in this case. Judge Williams said: “It is barely possible that stories might reach the ears of the jury and in view of the importance of the case I assign it to be tried at Willimantic, beginning next Tuesday. Howarth and Cain listened with in- terest to the discussion as to where the trial should be held. Both are familiar th court procedure, so lost none of the points made by either at- torney. The voung men were not al- lowed together, but were kept at a considerable distance from each other all of the time they were in the court room. They were brought from- the jail at Brooklyn, where they have been in separate parts of the jail since a few days after their arrest, in dif- ferent automobiles. Cain seemed to have been more af- fected by his few weeks of confinement than did Howarth, though both de- clared they were feeling well. Howarth said to a friend “I never felt better in my life” To another he stated that he expected to be at liberty again within a few days, now that the date for the trial has been fixed. Howarth gave no indication of be- ing under any nervous strain during the time he was in court. He chatted with a few persons before the open- ing of court, a function that he had many times participated in at Putnam, as has Cain, and during the reading of the long complaint against him was as calm as any_spectator. At the recess hour he smoked a cigar while chatting with various persons that came over to talk with him. Cain w nearly as well composed as Howarth, but did not come so much into prom- inence on account of not being put to plea. He had nothing of interest to say about the case. Both young men are anxious, however, for the trial that the case against them may be disposed of. They were returned to jail during the afternoon. MINERVA CHANGES PLEA, Sentenced to State Prison for Man- slaughter—Given Light Penalty at State Attorney’s Recommendation. Joseph Minerva, charged with the murder in this city on August 23 of Cresesto Esposito, alias Frank Roze, pleaded gullty at the close of the read- ing of the complaint against him. At- torney Michael Cangiano of Boston, Minerva's home town, acted as inter- preter for the prisoner who was rep- resented by Attorney Carmine Gara- falo, Boston. The plea of guilty came as a surprise to v in the court room, which was filled to capacity ow- ing to the number of important cases up for consideration. State Attorney Searls the court the story of the Kkilling of Roze, who was mortally wounded in a revolver duel between members of two parties of Italians, who developed a grievance while in a Livery street saloon, later went out into the street reviewed for | Ryan the following sums: 11912, $1,000: and started shooting at each other un- der ‘the Front street rallroad bridge ~T Les & Osgood Co, Druggists. Roze died at the Day Kimball hos- pital the following day. Mr. Searls said- to thecourt that the testimony secured at.the inquest, and given principally through inter- preters by Italian witnesses, was a conglomeration of uncertainties, and he could not feel satisfied. what the outcome of a trial would be. The facts seemed to be that, under the bridge, a fusilade of shots had been fired. Minerva was in the center of the danger zone, though taking no part as far as had been learmed, up to the time that a’bullet from someone's revolver had passed through his coat; then he pulled his own gun and fired several shots into space. There was no positive proof, however, that any one of the bullets fired by Minerva caused Roze's death. Neither is thers any evidence that Minerva had troubies with Roze at any time. No one knows for a certainty that a bullet from Min- erva’s revolver killed Roze, the attor- ney- stated to the court. Mr, Searis recommended that Minerva be shown great leniency by the court and his advice was followed. Judge Willlams sentenced the man to serve not less than one nor more than two years in the state prison. Contractor Leo Pleads Not Guilty— Howarth Was His Counsel. Tony Leo, a contractor who has lived in this city and Thompson, pleaded not guilty to baving obtaimed money un- der false pretenses from Thomas Ryan a_former selectman of the town of Thompson. Various counts in the complaint allege that Leo secured from May 28, June 6, 1912, $1,000; July 19, 1912, $2,000; August 1912, 31,5085 August 9, 1912, $600. It was set forth in the complalnt that Ryan endorsed notes of Leo's upon the false representation of Leo that he owned a perfect title in road building machinery, 23 horses, wag- ons, etc., when he had no ownership in the property. Mr. Leo. was repre- sented by Attorney William A. King of Willimantic. An interesting cir- cumstance in connection with thi case, to be tried later, is that At- torney Howarth, who a few minutes before had pleaded not guilty to an arson charge, was Mr. Leo's attorney at the time the Leo case first was heard of and that the case was one of the first that Attorney Howagth had taken charge of after belng admit- ted to the bar. MOOSUP CASE CALLED. Greenier and Vallont Plead Not Guilty in Scandal Where State Police Act- ed. Among other prisoners put to plea during the day in _answer to criminal complaints were Peter Greenier and Edward Vallont, both of Moosup, and both charged with having carnally known and abused a female child, Regine Blanchette, 15, Moosup. The men had been brought up from Brook- 1yn, where they have been held at the jail in default of bomds of $1,500 each since they were arrested earlier in the month by State Policemen Bridgeman and Flynn. Both prisoners pleaded not guilty. Greenier was charged with criminal conduct with the Blanchette girl on ‘two counts, May 1 and July 19 of this year, and Vallont on two similar counts, May 10 and September, 24, Both the prisoners, men of mid- dle age, are represented by Judge A. G. Bill of Danielson as counsel. Whittled at Three Doors. The police were interested Wednes- day in the fact that someone had whittled at the doors of the Mark Wilson, Putnam News company and Waolworth stores, all in a row on Front street, some time during Tues- day night. The cuts on the doors were all near the locks and the assumption is that attempts at breaking and en- tering were made, but how much basis there is for this belief had not been established during the day. Fire at Handle Factory. The fire department was called out at about 3.20 Wednesday morning for a fire at the Tatem ,handle factory. The blaze was a small one and was extingulshed without doing any ma- terial damage to the plant. FUNERAL. Joseph Tetreault. Mary’s church Wednesday morning funeral services for Joseph Tetreault were held. Rev. Charles F. Bedard was celebrant of the requiem mass, which was attended by a large number of relatives and friends. Six grandsons of the deceased, sons of Henry and Charles Tetreault of this city ,acted as bearers. Burial was in §t. Marv's cemetery. L. E. Smith was \n charge of the funeral arrangements.
