Take plain bitro-phosphate is the ad- vice of these physicians to thin, deli- cate, nervous people who lack vim, energy and nerve force, anil thers seems to be ample proof of the etficacy of this preparation to warrant the rec- ommendation.

Swirling winds that piled the snow into drifts 19:‘ the trolley tracks in various places added to the troubles of the Shore Line Electric railway in this. city and on the suburban lines in this neighborhood Wednesday. Trolley service was uncertain as car crews struggled with the snow .that the wind heaped over the tracks, and difficul- ties were further increased when the snowplows that were sent oyt to keep the lines clear were themselves caught in the grip of the unyielding snow that packed down hard on the tracks and lifted plows and cars clear off the rails. On the West Side line bevond Ma- ples corner the drifting snow eom- pelled an abandonment of the service to Backus corner and bevend. On the Taftville line, the snéw drift- ed =0 hadly that attempts to use both lines of the double iron were given up. and the service thréugh Tafiville and Greeneville was maintained by using only the easterly rail. The westerly rail was buried under snow. The Jewett City line also suffered from drifts, but possibly the section of the road worst crippled by thel masses of feathery whiteness that were piled up by the wind was the Montville line.! where the chief trouble was encount- ered ali day long in the cut near Wa- terford switch. The 8.45 car from herse had its troubles when it reached this point for it found there a snowplow stalled and a car off the track. The plight of the car had a far reaching effeet, for among the passengers which it car- ried were the largest part of the at- torneys and v sses in the trial of the Craney vs. Donovan case whjch was due. to begin in the superior at New London at 10 o'clock. attorneys on the ear included ..J. Desmond, Roderick M. s and John H. Rarnes. while witnesses included Joseph D. Har- John A. Yeomans, Dr. George A. Comeau and George R. Bruce. After a jong wait the passengers were noti- fisd that there was a car on the other e of the hinckade into which they could transfer to compiete their trip to New London. In making the trans- fer to the other car, a gugt of wind grabbed the hat from the head of one court The Mayor Dougls the of the witnesses and sent it flving down over the snow covered fields with its owner in pursuit after it. When the vagrant hat had been re- ‘covered the eonductor rang the bell and the trip was finishea 10 New Lon- don without further incident. but the legal party reached court .about an hour and a half late. Court ings had necessarily been held up till they could get there although beth liti- gants and other witnesses in the case were on hand. having selected other means of travel to reach New lmdnn in time. Another trip on ‘the Montville trol- ley line that reached New aft- er various vicissitudes was:the 11.45 trip from here. It ieft on time. but had its first troubles just south of Fitch's corner where the line car had the track blocked because it was stall-! ed with the snow so tightly packed under it that the car could not move. Shovels were brought into play by the line car crew to dig themselves out but before this had heen accom- plisned, a can was sent up from the Uncasville switch and the passengers transferred into this and proceeded on their way, leaving the line car crew still struggling with the snow. Everything went well until the fa- tal spot in Waterford was reached. Here the snow plow and a car were found still blocking up the cut. After another wait, there was another trans- fer to the car on the other side of the blockade. « In ordem to get into the second car, the passengers had to climb down a\ five foot bank of snow. Most of the women passengers had to be lifted from the top of the snow bank and swung onto the platform of the car. ©n this irip two of the passengers most interested in the progress of the car were a bride and groom who were on their way to cateh the 1.20 train from New London for Boston on their honeymoon trip. Th had caught the car only after a despérate chase down Thames street and West Thames street in an automgbile, blocked frequently by, teams that got across the track and compelled the automobile to do .acrobatic feats i climbing snow hanks. so that fhey thought they had had their share of difficulties, without the performances by the trolley car. They reached New London fifteen minutes after their train time but hustled down to the New London station in the hope that good luck might possibly be with them in making their traln a trifle late.

Saun- ders of Hope Valley, R. L, for com- pensation under the tworkmen's com- | pensation act has been disallowed by i Compensation ~Commissioner J. J. Donohue after a thorouzh investiga- tion and hearing on the matter, Com- missioner Donohue’s finding is as fol- lows: & . On Dec. 22, 1919, while working as 2 wooq choprer in the town of North Stonington the claimant received an injury of a cut on the left leg, caused by striking same with an axe while chopping down a tree. Said injury resulted in a disability covering a period of about weeks, and the claimant resumeq work the latter part of January, 1920. laim for compensation was made on Jan. 20 1920, against the respond- |ent as employer and no agreement having been made between the nar- es t linterest and the respondent claiming that he was not responsible, a2 hearing was roquested that the matter might be heard and deter- mined, From the evidence it is found that the respondent runs” a saw mill, that he made a contra¢t with one Mal- colm Thompson to cut a woed lot for him in the town of North Stonington. Aceordingly he moved his saw mill to the lot anq arranged for the drawing of the logs to the mill and the saw- inz of the logs by his own men, whose operations he intended to su- perintend personally. The cuiting of the timber was a_separate and dis- tinct plece of work and he made a contract with a man by the name of George Gagnon to take care of this part of the work. It is found th#® this Gagnon em- ploved several men to cut down the trecs in the wood lot in question, among them being the dlaimant, and was while claimant was emploved ¢ said Gagnon that he received his injury. The testimeny shows that Saunders | had no control over claimant or any of the men empinved by Gagnon, and that Gagnon was an independent coh- tractor. \ Gagnon hired the claimant and paid him for his services and had the pow- er to discharge him, and he also di- recteq him a work, and he was the only who exercised these powers. It is also found that said Gagznen did not have at the time of claim- ant’s inijury a sufficient number of men in his employ to to bring him ! within the scope of the workmen's compensation aet. The contract made between the re- spondent and said Gagnon was that the wood lot should be cut for cer- tain specified sums, 80 much “Per thousand for the lumber and so much a piece for each tie, according to, specifications. The arrangement subsequently made between Gagnon and the claim- ant was that he should be paid $4.00 per da\ for his services. In view of the testimony, it is found that Saunders was not the em- vlover of Morin at the jury, aed that the man for whom he was workinz did not have a suffi- cient number of men in his employ mlb ing him within the scope of the act. ‘Whereupon, the claim for compen- sation is hereby disallowed. BEGINS THIRD TRIAL OF CRANEY VS. DONOVAN Trial of the suit of John F. Craney of this city against John Donovan, also of Norwich, for $10,000 damages for libel and slander, was begun in the superior court at New London on Wenesday morning before Judge John H. Kellogg and a jury. The beginning of the trial was delayed about an hour and a half owing to the non-arrival of attorneys and witnesses from Norwich who had been delayed on the trolley line by snow blockades. Joseph D. Harris, John A. Yeomans, Dr. Georze A. Comeau and George R. Bruce were the witnesses called to the stand in the morning in the order named by Atterneys Roderick M. Douglass and Joseph T. Fanning, counsel for the plaintiff. Their testh mony related to what had been told them by Mr. Donovan of an incident on July 3, 1912, when he claimed he caught Mr. Craney and Mrs. Wjllard Church {n a compromising pesition in Mr. Craney’s office in the Alice build- ing. The witnesses were cross exam- ined by Attorneys John H. Barnes and Mayor J. J. Desmond, counsel for Mr. Donovan. In the afternoon session of court Charles F.
