Donohue, compensation commissioner,” flled on Tuesday with the clerk of the superior court of Windham county a decision disallow- ing the claim brought against the town of Brooklyn by Willlam K. Arnold cf Danielson on behalf of his deceased wife, Julietta K. Arnold. Mrs. Arnold was a school- teacher. Her death from pneumonia occurred on Dec. 5, 1914, and the claim was made on the ground that her illness arose out of and in the ccurse of her em- ployment. In summing up the evidence by which he reached his decision, Com- nrissioner Donohue said: . Mrs. Arnold’s age and the fact that sHe had a previous attack of pneumo- nia some four or five years before which Dr. Todd testified he had treated her for, and the fact that there is a powerful tendency to recurrence in this disease, the fact also that Mrs. Arnold was weak and ailing and had a lowered vitality due to pre-existing disease, having suffered in the springtime from an iliness, and considering that there was no initial chill, which is so pro- nounced in pneumonia. and also that . Todd stated that he did not know en she contracted the disease, also considering that Mrs. Arnold had been indiscreet in taking care of herself in regard to wetting her feet and other indiscretions, and considering all the predisposing factors which were pres- ent in her case, such as the long period of sytemic depression preceding this aftask of pneumonia, the testimony fafled to show any casual connectlon between the disease which caused the death of Mrs. Arnold and the occupa- tion in which she was engaged.

PLANT BUHNEuF Loss Estimated Between $60,000 and $65,000—Insurance of $45,000—Fire Started Early Tuesday Evening, Probably From Dyeing Room—Fire Companies Sent From New London—Company Had Factory Building and Stockhouse Both Destroyed. The factory of the Thames Dyeing and Bleaching company, situated on the Thames river, in the town of Wa- terford, about one and one-half miles south of the Uncasville station, on the Central Vermont railroad, was totally destroyed by fire Tuesday night, and the loss is estimated at between $60,- 000 and $65,000, with insurance of $45,- 000. The origin of the fire is not| known. | The fire broke out shortly after 6.30 | o'clock in the evening, and in a few minutes the flames had spread to all| parts of the factory. Help was asked | for from New London, and two auto| companies, the Niagaras and _the Northwests, were sent from New Lon- don at 7.15 o’clock. They were unable to render any effective assistance, as| the water supply was poor, and the flames had gained such headway by the time they arrived that the plant {orders ‘on hand to keep them rushing Heavy Orders on Hand— was doomed. Indications point to the drying room as the source of the fire. The factory building was two stories high and of brick and frame construc- tion. The plant had been in opera- tion for four years past, and about al vear ago the company doubled its op- erating capacity by building a large addition. Lately the company had been working night and day on rush orders, and it was stated on authority last night that the concern had enough until January, 1916. They did no dye- ing of any note at the plant, devoting their entire time to bleaching cotton Zoods. J. C. Geary of New London, who is one of the principal stockhold- ers, stated Tuesday night that he did not know whether the company would rebuild immediately or not. The stock- house, containing a large amount of cotton goods, was destroyed with the factory building. The company em- ploved about 50 hands.

Fitchville Herd Killed—Symptoms Among Herd of 28 in Preston. The foot and mouth disease has been discovered in the herd of BErnest Fargo of Fitchville, and on Tuesday Dr. Kinerman of the U. S. government, Deputy Commissioner Dr. F. A. In- gram and Dr. Becker went to the farm vith Dr. N. G. Gray and killed by shooting flve cows, two heifers and three pigs.
