T. L. Ledwidge was counsel for the plaintiff and Grills conducted his side of the case snd also posed as a witness. Both sides agreed as to the amount, but the plain- tiff also sought interest, which brought the amount due up to $113.32. . Mr. Grills said she never refused to pay the amount due the plaintiff, but that he agreed to pay him by installment, fust as he was paying his other cred-. itors; and without interest. He said that Siracisco’s total -account was $293.88 and -jt- has been reduced to $56.33, which he was anxlous to pay just as soon as he could.

Theré were a number, of wit- nesses on both sides, Mrs. Amelia Ar- congle, mother of Mary, being the only ne. who' testified. positively that-Mary rcongle was .named In . connection with the objectionable utterances. Six witnesses for the_defense, who were present at the time of the al- leged slander, testified that Mrs. Rossi did not make the remark as claimed by the plaintifr, but that Mrs. Arcongle used vile words. against Mrs. Rossi.

STONINGTON Four Hundred at Special Town Meet- ing, but Selectmen Could Not Pro- duce Copy of the Call—Meeting Not Legally Posted—Protest Against Trolley Fare Incre: In response to petitions the select- men of the town of Stonington called a meeting for Friday night, in the town court room in the borough to consider a protest against the advance in fares on the Groton & Stonington Street railway; to consider a propo- sition to extend the construction of the cement state highway to Mystic river bridge, at a cost of $6,000, the state to bear three-quarters of the expense and meimburse the town four years hence, less the interest on the money to be advanced by the town for the extension of the work, and also to provide for painting the fences *| of ‘the approaches to the Lord's Point KII'IG GEORGEL: KING CONSTRNTINE. | AND MAP QF CYPRYS) - Cyprus, an important and. large <s- land lying in a strategic position at the extreme easternend-of ‘the Medt-| terranean .sea, mear the coast of Asis Minor, has ‘been offered:to. the price of Tier atd: o the allies in 1 bridge. There were fully four dred interested citizens in attendance and the town courg room was inade- quate for the meeling. Adjournment was taken to the Borough hall. Se- lectman Boulter called the meeting to order and on motion of Benjamin H. Hewitt, Henry A. Stahle was chosen chairman and Judge Elias B. Hinckley was in nis place as town cierk. The chairman . called upon the clerk to read the official call for the meeeting and he called.upon the selectmen for a copy of the call, but none was pro- duced. Clerk Hinckley then threw a bomb that exploded with mwuch force, but not enough to completely check the persistency of Benjamin H. Hewitt, ‘who was the apparent spokesman for the assemblage. <Clerk Hinckley asked the selectmen if the call for the meet- ing had been posted as the law directs and was informeq that it had been ad- vertised in newspapers. “Then;” said Clerk_Hinckley, “we have come here on a Tom Fueols errand, as the meet- ing has not been legally calied ana that therefore.no business couid be transacted legall; Immediately there were motions to adajourn, but no action taken thereon. - Mr; Hewitt said that while the meet- ing may have not been legally called, he believed action ought to be taken on.a matter than did not involve the expenditure of money. He referred to the propoged raise in the fares of the hun- ‘| trolley company. and he believed that the action of a large body of represen- [ tative citizens would haye weight in contesting this matter which is sup~ ed to in effect next Monday. hether the meeting is legal or mot the people can file their protest.

Mr. Hewitt objected for in a sense the fown meeting was legal and he did not want to disturb that legality. He sald it was a de facto town meet- ing and should continue as such, and that @ town meeting action would have more weight than the action of a mass meeting. He wanted the ma- chinery set in motion in opposition to the -trolley company action. Chairman S tanie nere announced tifat no notice hed been posted and that_ therefore the town meeting was not legally called and that there could be no action in regard to expenditure of money. If no objection was raised he would consider zction on the trol- ley road matter in order. Mr. Hewitt then presented a reso- lution. with a preamble, relating to a town meeting legally called and duly warned, which set forth that the res- idenfs of the town of Stonington reg- istered their opposition and protest against the raise in the trolley fares. and that it was the sense of the meet- ing tht the present rate is adequate and that the raise was unwarranted. Coples of the vote were ordered for- warded to the _interstate commerce commission and to the Connecticut utilities commission. The resolution was unanimously adopted, at the sug- gestion of Frederick Burdick. That part of the resoluticn that made ref- erence to the legal meeting duly warn- ed was unpunged. Mr. Hewitt then made a long talk in support of his claim that the raise in fares would be an imposition on all patrons of the road and that it meant an increase of 20 per cent. over the present rate. He said the only reason for justification in the increase of fares was that the earnings are not Sufficient to pay dividends, and _this claim could not be made for the Grot- on & Stonington company. He said the people ol Stonington should set up a howl that could be distinctly heard at the state and national cap- itals and which would result in pro- tection from imposition. He suggested that every man at the meeting write letters to the commissions In protest of the action of the trolley com- any. U, Hewitt then submitted another vote which was seconded by Eli Gled- hill that the selectmen be instructed to protest, and contest the rais 1ng of fares to the Conmecticut Utali- ties commission and the Interstate commission. The mesting then ad- Journed. LEGAL NCTICES NOTICE TO CREDITORS. AT A COURT OF PROBATE HELD at Norwich, within and for the District &f‘ gorx"!le‘h. on the 29th day of Octobe: Present—NELSON J.
