The jury retired at 4.35 aft- er Judge Shumway had completed his charge, and returned with the ver- dict at 5.25. The trial of the case was resumed at the opening of court Thursday, fol- lowing its consideration during all ot Wednesday's session. Peters was re- called to the stand to undergo his cross-examination, conducted by Mr. Searls. Peters indicated in his testimony that coolness had arisen toward him on the part of Miss Longo, more on his part toward her. He was ques- tioned as to having been friendly with another young woman. but not much was developed from this line of inquiry excepting that the witness declared he had not paid attention to the other young woman until after Miss Longo has instituted her suit against him. In charging the jury, Judge Shum- way pointeq out that they might con- sider, in giving attention to awarding costs, if costs were to be awarded, the plaintiff's injured feelings, her morti- flcation at being discarded by the de- fendant, the law taking that into con- sideration in such cases; that they were also to consider her lost wages from the time she gave up her place, in November, 1915, until she returned to work in July, 1916, and such actual useless expendifure as she has been put to in providing a trousseau. 1t has developed during the day that Peters, in 1915, had a bank account of something over $700, and that this account had been attached at the time the suit was istituted. The jury was<excused until Tues- day, January 28. Officers of A. C. Warner W. R. C. Following are the newly elected offi- cers of A.

C. T. U. Already half of the towns of Connecticut are under no-license, and there would have been a number more dry towns had the women had the right to vote on the question in the elections last November. men were sure of this fact and the opposition to Avoman suffrage in the ranks of the’labor unions, as shown in the convention of the State Feder- ation of Lebor last September, came from the Bartenders’ union and other unions interested in the liquor trade. The speaker for the Bartenders’ union plainly stated that he opposed woman suffrage because the women would put the liquor men out of business. At the beginning of 1917 there were nineteen states under total prohibition. Of these six were states where Wo- men vote and thirteen were man-suf- frage states. Prohibition therefors does not depend on woman's votes alone, but it is noteworthy that more than half of the eleven states where women vote were dry, while not much over a third of the _man-suffrage states had gone for prohibition. In the election four more states adopted prohibition by popular vote of which one was a woman suffrage state—hith- erto known as the wettest state in the Union. This was Montana, where the omen had had the vote only two years and where they used it in the first election to vote the state d Anoth- er woman suffrage state voted dry in- directly. In_the last session of the legislaure a dry law was passed and _vetoed by the governor. The election turned on whether this _governor should be re-elected or another man, pledged to prohibition legislation should be chosen. The result was in ver of prohibition and it is expected that Utah will be in the dry column before the end of the present sessior of the state legislature. This will mhke eight dry states, where women vote, out of eleven—a very much better showing for prohibition than is made by man-suffrage states. Only Cal fornia, Nevada and Wyoming remain wet. and in California much more than half the state is dry under.local op- tion: and the wine industry and wine growers make the passage of a pro- hibition amendment very difficult.. In Wyoming and Nevada the proportion of men to women is more than double —greater. than in any other state. [ TRANSFERRED TO MERIDEN. Reov. James McGettrick to Succeed Rev.
