Moh: vening_ in the -town, ball re- celved a decided jold about ten min- utes after;the meeting had been call- ed to orderby Chairman Henry H. Pet- tis, when :an. altercation arose be- tween Herbert M. Lerou and Michael J. Curran, clerk of the sessors, over certain- {ntimations, which Mr. Curran élaimed Mr. Lerou made on the floor while explaining his course in introducing ‘'an amendment to a resolution intro- duced by Charles D, Noyes. This res- ‘olutien -fixed - the salaries of the as- sessors at $1,000 each with $300 extra for the clerk of the board. ~ Mr. Le- rou's amendment.fixed the salaries of the assessors at ‘$1,200 each with' an extra. $200 for the clerk. making the latter’s salary $1,400. Words flew back and forth across the ‘room thick and fast' ., and. i several instances Mr. Curran and Mr. Lerou were taking at the same. time, necessitating interfer- ence on'the part of Chairman Petils. Mr.. Curran contended that Mr. Le- rou, in the touse of his remarks. had “insulted” the committee agpointed by authority of the annual fown meeting last fall to investigate conditions in the assessors’ office as to. equipment apd salary and to report their recom- mendations at the adjourned annual town meeting held Monday night, by intimating that the salary recorn- mendation embodied in their report was for the benefit of the clerk. Mr. Curran also took exception to Mr. Le rou's statement that if the committee salary recommendation and Mr. Noyes' resolution on the salary question went through that the harmony in the board of assessors would be seriously dis- turbed over the question as to who would serve the board as clerk. As there appeared to be no abate- ment in the altercation which on the contrary grew in inte #3ity, while the voters gathered in meet watched with undisguised interest the course of events, the chair finally took a hand in the matter. reminding the two gen- tlemen at odds that the question be- fore the house was the adoption ‘or re- jection’ of the amendment. When the question was put the chair and every- hody else were décidedly in doubt as t.. the result of the acclamation vote and it was decided to appoint tell~~s and count the vote as the voters r 4 ~d in front of the ‘desk. ~The amendment was lost and 'Mr. Noyes' resolution wds at once adopted. The only other matter before the meeting was the laying of the town tax which was fixed at ‘17 1-4 mills, three-quarters of a mill less than the tax of last year. With a fair sized representation of the voters of the town in attendance, the meeting was called to order at o'clock by Chairman Pettis, committee on the neers of the assess ors' oTce' which was read hy Town Clerk Charles S. Holbrook. The meet. ing accepted the report of the com mittee which consisted of Town Clerk Noyes; Thomas H. Reckley, Arthur.E. Charles 8. Holbrook.

RUMORS THAT MUNSEY WILL BUY IN NORWICH Photographers who took pictures a short time ago of the Strand bullding on, Main street, Frankiin equare, ana said they were working for Frank A. Munsey of New Yo ‘who was think- ing of buying the building, are respon- gible for reports that this fine business property on Main street, at the cor- nor of Rose place, was to be bought by Munsey. Peter Sellas of Main street, who | with Mr. Constantine of New London bouzht the Strand: building recently, says there is nothing in reports of the purchase, but from other sources it is stated that there are very good pros- pects of the sale belng made to Mun- at a good profit to the present owners. § The predictions of the future of the building in case Mr. Munsey buys it are that it will furnish a location fo the Mohican store on the ground floo: and that the rest of the building will be turned into a hotel with the build- ing raised to provide added room.
