The case has occupied five court weeks LI e s ST G jury. At the afterncon sesslon, after every seat assigned to spectators was occu- pled, no more were admitted, the au- dience including fifty women, or one- half the capacity of the court room devoted to the public. Mr. Fitzgerald made the opening argument for the defence and for two hours told the story of the Bradford wreck, and re- viewed and explained every bit of evi- dence of Importance in the case. He was followed by Mr. Phillips, Who spoke for two hours more, and ex- plained all the materlal points of the case as viewed by the prosecution. Coroner Everett E. Kingsley, of Whs- terly, was the first witness called B | rebuttal when court opened Frida: morning. He denied telling Fireman King that his testimony would not be used again. .By Mr. Fitzgerald—He sealed the testimony so that it could not be opened or read.

The judge asked for the letter and, af ter reading it, he decided acainst its admission, as it was not framed with- in the rules required. Mr. Fitz objection was sustained. In response to a query from Mr. Fitzgerald, the witness said he came to court by di- rection of the attorney for the rail- road company at Providence.

Both King and Paterson came to New Lon- don.” He called King into his office first and after a while, he received a card from Patterson asking that he might see Mr. King and he was ad- mitted. He said he had nothing to say to Mr. King that he would not say_in the open and td Mr. Paterson's presence. The wit- ness talked over the evidence of Fire- man King and the fireman reiterated his testimony that the distant siznal was green and persisted in it. To Mr, Fitzgerald—The distant sig- nal is an advance indication of the position of the signals to the engineer. A green distant signal advances a clear block and permits proceed, to g0 right along at speed, as it Indicates a clear way. The distant signal surely indicates the position of the other sig- nals, and an engineer would be justi- fled 'in coming up to the home signal as soon as physical conditions permit- ted, como to a stop if the home sig- nal is against him. After passing the distant signal and the weather so dense that he could not see the home signal a stop should be made, but of observed as train gets to the signal, the engineer is permitted to_continue at speed. The distant signal at cau- tion requires a slow-down, but when at green the train is to zo along. as the block is clear, but he must ob- serve the other signals in advance. Witness was now assistant to superin- tendent of transportation, but not with 2 division superintendent. Mr. Litchfield admitted that a train passing a distant signal at clear could continue on to the speed to the home signal, and if then thet signal was at danger the train would be then stopped as soon as poss le. Charles H. Motsell, supcrintendent of the New London division, successor of Mr. Litchfield, succeeded him on the witness stand. He been superin- tendent since July 10. The rule which lates to fogsy weather is in effect whether there is a distant signal or not. The distant signal indicates the condition of the other signa He never qualified or instructed Enzineer Shaughnessy or Mansfield. The distant signal at caution means to slow and look for danger, and is not different or changed by weather conditions. After passing a distant signal and an en- gineer gets the home signal, when at it, he would be all rizht to stop as soon thereafter as possible, even if he went by the sign; Mr. Motsell said he came to court upon request of Mr. Phillips, the request being received by telephone, but he s ot . sure whether by Mr. Phillips of the railrsad legal department or.the Mr. Phillips who w th: s conducting the prosecut se. = state rested. _After a brief recess at the conclu sion of the argument by Mr. Phillips, Judge Rathbun made his charge to the by from the indictment eld.

Then assistance was requested from the Pawcatuck fire district, just across the river, and the Peleg S. Barber H company responded with their White motor-chemical and hose wag- on. On the run down there was tire trouble, as pneumatic tires are used on that machine, as are on the motor apparatus of the Westerly department. After the fire had been in progress nearly two hours a call was made for the American-LaFrance pumping ma- chine of the Hoxie company, Mystic, and the auto record run from Mystic to Watch Hill was made. Then the Narragansett hotel was about to break out in flames and the whole of Bay street was endangered. Up to this time there had been lack of water bronchitis, asthma, quinsy, Sore throat, croup, pleurisy, rheumatism, erysipelas and neuralgia. 3 Why risk having ‘any of these, when the use of “Seventy-seven"7at the first chill or shiver will break up the cold in its inception. “Seventy-seven” contains harmful nor injurious and bad after effects.

During the succeeding cen- tury and a balf there was a strong wave of imigration to the bleak is- and, and in addition to the Norse no- bles ‘and the vikings there came Queen Aud, widow of Olaf the White, king of Dublin, #nd numerous followers. Trade with the island underwent many cycles in_succeeding centuries, being confined first to Norway. then with the smugzling merchants of Bristol, England, and later the Han- seatic ' towns of Germany. Finally, Denmark established a governmentai monopoly which_was In force uatil 178 when all Danish subjects were permitted to enjoy trade relations. The island was opened to all nation- alities in 1854, and 20 years later, when the Danes sranted local government to the Icelanders, comercial life re- ceived a strong_impetus. “The chief industries of Iceland are cattle breedinz and fishing, the lat- ter activity having had a remarkable growth in the last few years. Her- ring, which constituted the sole cargo of the ship which arrived in New York recently, is one of the principal products of the neighboring seas, but cod and train-oil and the salmon fish- eries are also considerable. Other exports are Jive sheep, salt meat, eider down, wool, and hideés. Imports in- clude’ salt, metal ware, coal and var- ious ‘manufactured articles. Owing to tho long winters, which are ex- tremely severe, the islanders find am- ple time to devote to spinning, weav- ing and knitting at home and the tweed whic they make is the chief material used for clothing. Tourists, however, find ollskins invaluable as the climate is extraordinarily damp In half of the island, where nd principal city, Reyk- situated (population’ about Icelanders emigrated to America from 1872 to 1900, and sev- eral colonies have been established in y Manitoba, but during the last decade there has beer a decided tendency to stay at home.
