Marland of the town school tommittee has been - in- | structed of the. state board of education the matter of ascertaining whether town will be required to keep South Killingly school in session suffi- cient number of days after the close of the school year in June to make up for the time lost through closing the school on account of scarlet fever. The school is to reopen Monday. The state board may decide that the town is not entitled to the state allowance for each pupil unless the school has been in ses sion the required number of weeks, it is said. ELLIOTT STRONGER FRIDAY. Still Refuses to Talk—Now Believed That He May Recover—Probability of Early Trial. At the Brooklyn jail Friday it was said that John Elliott, being held to answer to_a charge of murder in the first degree, seemed slightly improved. His temperature was down to within half a degree of normal and he was taking some nourishment. During the morning the prisoner, who is kept closely guarded in the hospital ward, received attention from Dr. George M. Burroughs, who dressed his wounds. He sat in a chair while (hlu was being done and when the bandage: had been replaced about his batterod ‘head he was able to stand up unaided and walk to his cot. Dr. Burroughs afterwards expressed the opinion that the chances now seem somewhat more favorable that the prisoner may re- cover, - Elliott continues to. maintain ephinx-like silence. ~He bas barely spoken_ since he_was brought . to the jail, “Bvery effoft-to get him to talk has met with failure. It is now be- lieved that he can talk, but he will neither discuss the case nor talk about anvthing else, no matter how far re- moved. A jail attendant, who = has studied him closely says he doesn't be- ileve that it will be possible to get El- liott to say anything about his crime for an indefinite period. This theory is in keeping with what | people who know the prisoner well say about him. One of his chlncterlltic; 5 always has been taciturnity. Once while employed at the Ream estate in pson as a laborer he badly in- Jured hll hand in handling a dynamite blast.

There are those, however, who are inclined to the belief that Elfiott was hurt by a fall from some rocky cliff in the rough country where he spent his time after escaping’ the Pettis place. There is little question but that there will be prompt action in dispos- ing of Elliott’s ease. _With the com- pletion of Coroner Bill's inquest _no long delay s looked for in summoning @ grand jury to pass on the matter of indicting Bitiots for murder in the Arat degree, His trial may take place this month, during which the superior court will be session.
