Farrell against the Norwich and Westerly Traction company, arguments - were heard on defendant’s motion to strike out portions of the plaintiff's declara- tion before Presiding Justice Tanner in the superior court at Providence, Attorney Albert B. Crafts arguing for the plaintiff and Judge Edward M. Burke for defendant. Justice Tanner took the matter under advisement. The suit is in connection with the accident ac the Wequetequock crossing on the afternoon of Sept. §, 1914, when an automobile driven by Farrell was wrecked. The passengers were Mrs. Clara H. Stanton and Mrs. Anne S. Burnett, and they were o severely in- Jjureq that they died a few weeks later. Farrell was injured and alleges that, his injuries are of a permanent nature and he seeks to recover $15,000 in damages. The arguments before Judge Tanner were on the declaration of the defend- ant that it was the custom in the TUnited States, before and at the time of the accident, for steam ‘and trolley roads to maintain flagmen at grade crossings; and for the flagmen to warn drivers of vehicles of the approath of trains or trolley cars, and to keep track of the time when cars are due 0 as to give warning; and have shan- ty near the crossing for flagmen when they are not engaged in duty; and it was the custom of drivers of automo- biles and other vehicles to rely upon the warnings given by the flagmen. It was alleged that Farrell saw the shan- ty, at the crossing beyond the crossing where the accident occurred, but saw no- flagman "and, presuming that all was right, continued on to the track, relying upon the flagman for his safe- The waiting station at Wequete- avock ‘was_evidently mistaken for a flagman’s shanty. The defendant desired these points in the plaintiff’s declaration stricken out,"as it ‘would be some task for the plaintiff to prove and the defendant to disprove the custom that prevails at grade crossings all over the United States, as conditions differed at grade crossings, where all drivers of vehicles are supposed to use their eyes and ears and take due precaution to pre- vent injury, and there is no_ general custom that covers every. grade cross- ing on the steam roads and trolley roads of the United States. There- fore, the defendant should not be put to the expense and trouble of con- vincing the trial justice on that point. Hence the motion to have it stricken out of the plaintiffs declaration. It is hardly possible that Judge Tanner's ! decision will be handed down In time to have the case ‘assigned for hearing at the session of the superior court STONINGTON Henry Taylor, in Town Court, Fined $50 and Costs on Charge of A sault—Careless Hunters Penalized— Appeal in Miller Case. Four cases were disposed of by Judge Frank H. Hinckley in the Ston- ington town court, Thursday, which included the adjourned case against Henry Taylor, of Wequetequock, charged with indecent assault upon a four -vear.old girl. By arrange- ment with Prosecutor Benjamin H. Hewitt and Attorney Ledwidge, coun- sel for accused the charge was changed to simple assault. Taylor was ad- judged guilty and ordered to pay a fine of $50 and costs. He was siven a specified time in which to settle with Clerk Martin, Elmer Erkes and Elmer Brown were charged with violating the game laws in not having their licenses with them while engaged in hunting and with breach of the peace. The case against Brown was nolled on payment of costs and Erkes was fined $2 and costs. Charles Miller was accused of com- mitting a breach of the peace in in- sulting Mrs. Edgar Delagrange and in threatening to ghoot those who resent- ed his action. 'He was ordered to pay a fine of $10 and costs. From this judgment Attorney Herbert W. Rath- bun, . counsel for Miller, gave notice of appeal.

The feature of the meeting was the presentation of a paper entitled Old Time Lotteryville, by Mrs. James O. Babcock, a section of the town of Westerly now-known as Avondale. -Perhaps a more_appropri- ate name would have been Pendleton- ville. The owner of the lands whereon most of the village is located, Colonel Joseph Pendleton, in consideration of losses suffered by himself and his kin- dred, received from the state a lottery grant, in which house lots previously laid out by him were drawn. Thus the place received the name of Lotteryville. The Jand was laid out in 126 house lots, under a grant given Feb. 27, 1749, executed by Isaac Sheffield and Elias Thompson, aided by W. Babcock, sur- veyor. The original plan was on ex- hibition at the meeting, as were also Other relica of historical interest in connection with Mrs. Babcock’s in- structive paper. The early inhabitants of that vicin- ity were farmers and fishermen, and then came mariners of the Pendleton and Hall type, who engaged in the whale fisheries, the right whale of the Arctic and the sperm whale of the Autarctic. The storekeeper of _the place were Benjamin Barns, Nathan Barber, Gilbert Pendleton, John Frank- lin Hall, Samuel A. Chapman and George W. Stephens. Near 1820 Rev. Benjamin Shaw, a minister of the Methodist Episcopal church, came from Cumberland, R. L, to Lotteryville, and he enlarged and lived in_the house later occupied by Russell Hinckley. Meetings were held in the schoolhouse and baptism was by immersion. Mr. Shaw remained in Lotteryville for 18 years. He then went to Vermont and accepted the views and practice of the Wesleyan Methodists. He died In 1839. A branch church of the First Baptist church in Westerly was formed at Lot- teryville in 1843, and the constituent members were Lyman Hall, David Pendleton, Ethan Pendleton, Jesse Brown, Abby P. Hall, Sarah Pend] ton, Phebe A. Pendleton and Eunice Brown. The meetings were held in the schoolhouse until 1848, when a meetinghouse was erected at a cost of $1,200. In the summer of 1349 the branch. became an independent body. with 33 members and Rev. Nicholas H. Matteson as first pastor, a young preacher who was ordained Oct. 18, 1849, The deacons were Lyman Hall and Nathan Fitch. This meetinghouse was destroyed by fire in 1851, and a second one was built in 1852. Bein without a pastor, this church on Dec. | 1, 1855, returned as a branch church to_the parent church. Mrs. Babeock’s paper was well re- ceived and the members of the soclety expressed appreciation by a unanimous vote of thanks to Mrs. Babcock. The state board of public works has revoked the operator’s dicense of Ed- ward Fowler, on the ground of reck- less driving. The car was owned in Pawtucket and on October 24 was in Wickford.

George N. Marshall. alias George Morgan, of Wyoming, Richmond coun- ty, arrested by Deputy Sheriff William H. Casey, in North Stonington, for Chief of Police Fuller, of Richmond, was before Judge Oliver H. Williams of the Third district court Thursday in Hope Valley. Marshall was ar- rested for abandonment and non-sup- port of his wife and two children and when located he was found living with his_sister-in-law, Sarah Martell, age 14 and her three weeks' old baby boy. Marshall was charged with abandon- ment and non-support of his family and the even more serious crime of rape. Marshall pleaded not guilty and wanted time to engage a lawyer. In order to give him time to secure cou: sel, he was held for trial in the su- perior court for Washington county at the December term. He was unable to furnish bail of $3,500 and was com- mitted to the Kingston jail Dr. Peroy A. Senior o to_practice profes: dence where, it is said, he has secured an office and posted a slgn to the effect that -he was to succeed Dr. C. F. Mohr, who was shot to death while on an automobile trip from his office in Providence to his home in Newport. When Dr. Gardner T. Swarts, sec- retary of the Rhode Island state board of health, became cognizant of Dr. Senior’s purposed plan, the Westerly physician was summoned before the state board at Providence, Thursday afternoon, to show cause why his cer- tificate as a. practicing physician in Rhode Tsland should not be revoked. Some time ago Dr. Senior was arrest- gd on a serlous charge, but, after prial by a jury, he was declared not & and was discharged. So long as he Temained in Westerly the state board of health wis disposed not to make | any investigation. Dr. M. H. Scanlon. was selected to represent the Westerly Physicians’ association at the hearing and Dr. Russell B. Smith and Chief of "Police Thomas E, Brown were also summoned to the hearing.

Chancellor of Exchequer Says All Re- quirements Will Be -Met. London, Nov. 11, 7.10 p. m.—Earl St. Aldwin, former chancellor of the ex- chequer, during the debate on the ne- cessity for greater economy, which was resumed this evening in the house of lords, declared that whatever the financial requirements were they would be met. He believed the country would find the money and that there was no reason for faint-heartedness in these matters, g iving the foes of the nation cause to rejbice, but the government was bound to exercise far more than it had yet exercised the means of econ- omizing at its disposal. Earl St. Aldwin protested against delay in raising new taxation for the war. Large as the increases were which had been made, he said, they were not large enough, especially in regard to the indirect taxation. BALFOUR WILL NOT REPLY TO CRITICISMS, Declares the Facts Are Not and Can- not Be Known. London, Nov. 11, 540 p. m.—During the course of debate in the house of commons today, A. J. Balfour, first lord of the admiralty, laid down 'the prin- ciple that he would not reply to critic- isms on the conduct of the war on the ground that “all criticism of the con- duct of the war must, until after the war is over, and, indeed, long after, be a matter almost impossible to deal with, because the facts are not and cannot be known.” The endowment is $4,000." sufficient time to place non-combat- ants in a place of safety, and that the fact that a vessel previously attempt- € to escape does not invalidate that right. Many phases of the question were discussed informally by officials dur- ing the day, but with the reservation that formal comment or .action neces- sarily must await detailed reports from Ambassador Page at Rome and Amer- ican consuls in Italy and north Africa, who have been instructed to obtain af- fidavits from survivors. So far it has been impossible to ascertain definitely the number of American citizens lost. Conflicting reports concerning the colors raised by the submarine which attacked the Ancona attracted much attention. If one report that the sub- marine flew a German flag is con- firmed, officials said this would be con- sidered as an act of war sufficient to serve notice that Italy and Germany were in a state of war. There never has been any declaration of war be- tween the two countries, so far as the state department is advised and the custom has geen in cases of this kind to await some overt act as an evidence of the state of hostilities. Should it develop that the subma- marine was manned by a German naval force and flew a German flas, it is considered certain that the question will be made the subject of immedi- ate diplomatic correspondence by the United States with the German for- eign office. Every means of clearing up such points through American dip- ROOSEVELT BROUGHT INTO TESTIMONY AT N. H. TRIAL, Could Not Promise Immunity if Law Was Violated. U. 8. STEEL CORPORATION TO IMPROVE ITS PLANTS. To Outlay $10,000,000 to Meet Increased Business Requirements. New York, Nov. 11—To meet.the increased requirements of its business, the United States Steel corporation announced proposed improvements at its plants in Indiana, Pennsylvania and Ohio_involving an outlay approximat- ing_$10,000,000. “We have decided,” said Elbert H. Gary, chairman of the corporation. “to make additional improvements at Gary, Ind., copsisting of two blast furnaces, several bpen hearth furnaces, blooming mills, duplexing plant, etc., costing over ‘seven and a half millions, the ex- act figures of which are not yet deter- mined, and will probably commence work in the immediate future. ‘We have also decided to make addi- tional improvement at Youngstown, and at Pittsburgh, which will cost be- tween one and two million: New York, Nov. 11.—Former Presi- dent Roosevelt was brought into the testimony today at the trial of the eleven former New York, New Haven and Hartford directors charged with violating the Sherman law, as having given assurance to Charles S. Mellen that the New Haven need have no fear of federal action during Rooseveit's administration if it rejected a propo- sition to dispose of its steamship prop- erties to Charles W. Morse. The testimony, which was given by Mr. Mellen, was adduced by the gov ernment to show that Mr. Mellen nev- ertheless recommended the sale of the properties and that the New Haven directors, in pursuance of their alleged purpose to maintain a monopoly of the transportation traffic of New England, declined to consider their president's Tecommendation. ‘While it was a twice-told tale, as Mr. Mellen gave similar testimony at the interstate commerce commission inquiry into New Haven affairs, Mr. Mellen added to it today by saying that Mr. Roosevelt felt that it would be inimical to public interest for Morse to consummate his purpose of getting control of the Atlantic ~coastwise steamship lines through acquisition of DISSATISFIED WITH BRITISH NAVAL AIR SERVICE Large, New Aeroplanes for Offensive Asked for in Commons.
