Hall, re- ceiver of the Thames Loan and Trust company, explained a substituted ap- plication to pay a final dividend to the commercial and savings deposi- tors. According to his statment filed with the clerk of the court there is a total of $99,49 ready for final dis- wribution to both classes of depositors. There is a’total of $50 888.40 to be dis- tributed among the commercial de- positors who number 678 and $48,608.17 to be divided among the savings de- positors who number 1.523. In his statement to the ecourt Mr. Hall estimated that it will take from €0 to 90 days to get the checks ready ?nd to pay the correct amounts called or. The total assets on the confmercial side was $323.509.38 and on the.sav- ings” side $399,225.24, making a total of $722,734.81. On the commerecial side there have been dividends of 40 per cent. that amounted to $99,427,28 and. Mr. Hall :m pay 111 per cent. as a final divi- lend.

Believed to have gone suddenly in- sane, Salvatore DeMartino, a laboref of 219 Wallace street, New Haven, grabbed up his 8 year old daughter in their home Thursday afterncon and, with a long butcher knife, endeavored to cut the child’s head off. Other members of the family, hearing the child’s screams, rushed in and over- powered the enraged father, while a call was sent in for the police. Fortunately, the knife was dull and the father had inflicted only several superficial wounds in the child's neck. The police had arrived by this time. ‘When_arraigned before Judge Hoyt in the New Haven city court Friday morning a continuance until Saturday was made in the man's case at the re- quest of Prosecutor Sheridan Whita- ker. In the meantime he will be ex- amined by physicians. DeMartino, according to the police, was committed to the Norwich. insane asylum some time ago. Recently, how- ever, word reached his family that he was in a precarious condition and would probably die. . Steps were then taken for his release and he was finally allowed to return to his home. Domestic _surroundings apparently invigorated the man, it Is said, for in- stead of sinking lower in health he improved wonderfully and was appar- ently himself again. It was believed that the man had recovered his. full mental bearings until his , rampage Thursday afternoon. In court Satur- day he will probably be committed again to the Norwich asyhmn.
