Donohue has announced his find- ing and award in the case of M. Pas- ciera of Old Mystic, claimant vs, the Mystic Woolen company of Old Mys- tic, employer, and the finding will be filed in the office of the superior court clerk in this city today (Thursday). The hearing was held in the commis- sion's office in the Central Building on Wednesday morning at 11 o'clock. While in the course of his employ- ment the claimant sustained a per- sonal injury to his right arm on Ap 16, 1916, May 19th a voluntary agree ment between the parties was ap- proved by the commissioner. By the terms of the agreement the claimant was to receive compensation during disability at the rate of five dollars weekly, together with medical, surgi- cal and hospital services. Compensation was pail weekly to the claimant on the basis of the agree- ment made, during his disability which covered a period of about four weeks, and the hearing was called for by the attending physiclan that his bill for medical services rendered the claimant might be passed upon, as | the same was objected to by the re- spondents. The question over which there Commissioner Donahue Makes Award Heard Case of Old Mystic Man Against The Mystic Woolen mise With Respondents at Commissioner’s Suggestion. Called by Attending Physician Upon—Entered Into Compro- seemed to be some doubt was as to whether or not there was a fracture of the forearm of the claimant, it be- ing claimed by the respondents that there was no such fracture. The re- spondents agreed that if it could de- finitely be shown that there was such a fracture of the radius the objec- tions to the bill would be withdrawn. A statement was submitted by a physician who examined the forearm to the effect that he believed there was a fracture of the bone. The a tending physiclan did not mako the | claim that there was a complete frac- ture of the radius but that it was a sreen stick fracture of the forearm. An X-ray photograph of the in jured arm was taken on the morni of the hearing by an expert in radi graphy and the picture showed some | bowing of the radius but it did no: show a complete fracture of the fore- arm. On account of the fact that the fracture was not a complete fracturs the attending physiclan agreed to a compromise which was sugsgested by the commissioner to make the first aid charge one-half of what was ori inally claimed, that is, five dollars in- ead of ten. The commissioner then made his finding that Dr. Small'y Lill to the amount of $21 be approved for payment.

New London, Conn. Mr. J. Willilam Knappenberger, Niantie, Conn - Dear Sir: Your letter of Junme 27, addressed to the war department, has been referred to me for reply. The order of the war department dated Jan. 20, 1916, to the county of New London, requires that on or before Dac. 31, 1917, the following alterations be made to the Niantic bridge: To provide a draw span with a clear Width of at least 45 feet between fen- ders, and a _clear height of at least six feet above high water when the draw Henry Caron who is on a two weeks’ vacation caugbt a fine string of bass o T umday, is closed; also that the draw span be centrally located with respect to the waterway, and that the alterations be designed tarough the removal of abutments, piles, riprap or otherwise 50 that the net area of the waterway at the bridge will not be reduced to a smaller area than it now has. Section 18 of the river and harbor act approved March 3, 1899, provides that if within the time prescribed the persons, corporation or _assoclation owning or_controlling a bridge shail wilfully fail or refuse to comply with the order they shall be deemed guilty of misdemeanor and on conviction shail be punished by a fine not exceeding $5,000; and :hat every month that such persons, corporation or association shall remain in default in Tespect to the removal of alteration of such bridge shall be deemed a new offense and subject the responsible parties to the penalties above described. 1t an opening is made in compliance with this order and within the time limit stated therein, it is immateriaf, 0 far as this department is concerned, whether a new bridge be built or not. 1t would be proper for the county au- thorities, if they wish to delay build- ing a new bridge, to remove the pres- ent one in compliance with the order, and postpone the construction of a new bridge until they could make satisfac- tory arrangements with the state legis- lature. So far as known in this office no application for an extension of time limit has been submitted, and T have no reason to suppose that such an ap- plication would be favorably consid- red.
