Take Foley's in time. Lee & Osgood Co. lents within one year from date of al- In a finding announced Friday after- neon Commissioner James J. Donohue of this city has disallowed the compensation claim_of Mrs. Lizsle Bibik, widoWw of the late Michael Biblk, of North Grosvenor- dale, claimant, agdiist The Grosvenor- dale Company of North Grosvenordale. The hearing was held at the ‘commis- sioner’s office Wednesday, Jan. 9. At the heafing the following facts were brought ut: An injury is claimed to have been re- ceived by Michael Bibik, the decedent, on or about Sept. 14, 1818; said injury being claimed to have been received by him Guring the course of his employ- ment with the respondent company at their plant in North Grosvenordale. It is ciaimed that the injury comsisted of bumping his elbow on the under surface against, a fly-wheel in the carding room. Tt js found that the decedent continued working, up to July, 1919 at the same em- ployment ,after receiving this alleged in- J®y, and ‘during ‘41l ‘the’ intervening time he sought no medieal’ attention of any escription. . .. . . - ot e evidence shows that the decedent was obliged to quit” work in July 1919, about ten months-afier:it is claimed he roceived an_injury, on account of a growth developing on the apposite side of.the arm. from that on-which it is claimed he: redeived an injury. A short while after he quit work, it| is found that-he sought the advice of & physician and received treatment up to the time of his death, which occurred on Sept.” 18, 1920, ¢ 1t is found that some months previous to May 1920 the decedent went to Wor- cester and had an operation performed on_his arm te have the sarcoma removed | (the growth on the arm having been found to be a sarcoma) and at that time he cvidently. had it removed, or a part of it, but it quickly recurred. All of this ‘was done on the decedent's own volition and ‘without the knowledge at that time of the respondents. It was later sug- gested to him, upon the recurrence of the malignant - growth that the only thing to do would be to have the arm ampu- (ated at the shoulder joint, but this the decedent did not see fit to do, and the fatal result eventually followed . The decedent left surviving him his wifa, who is the claimant, and three ml-! nor children, with mhom he was pre- sumably living at the time of his death and supporting regularly ;these features of the case not being raised or disputed by the respondents; it therefore is pre- sumed that sald widow and ‘minor chil- dren were dependents of the deceased e; ploye at the time. of the alleged intury and subsequent death. Although no claim was made by the respondents, it is found that no notice of the injury or claim. for compensation was made by the emmloye or the depend- leged injury as required by the statutes. Tha first knowledge which the company | had of any injury being claimed was March 18, 1320, and the claim for com- pensation was brought to the attention of the commissioner by the claimant in her letter of December 22, 1920. The hearing was called that it might be determined whether or not.the dece- dent received any injury arising out of and in the course . of his employment with the respendent company, and, also, whether the cause of deatn could in any way be attributed to any injury or em- ployment in which the decedent was en- gaged at the time of said alleged jnjury. In view of the evidence, it is found that the cause of the decedent’s death was sarcoma, and Yor the reasons fully set fogth in a memorandum which is at- attacheC to the finding, it is found that said sarcoma could in no way be attrib- uted to any injury claimed to have been received by the employe, in questiol and if such an injury were received, n notice of same or claim for compensation was made within the statutory period. ‘Whereupon the claim for compensation is hereby disallowed. S In-the memorandum the commissioner makes a lengthy review of sarcoma and says in part: Although there are several features of this case Which come up for determina- tion, such as the fact to be established that an actual injury was received aris- ing out of and in the course of employ- ment, lack of notice of same and claim of compensation within the one-year pe- riod allowed' by the act ,the main fact is the cause (f death (sarcoma) and the possibility of attributing that disease to injury or employment. The really im- portant feature of this case is the medi- cal question iavolved relating to cause of death dnd whether it could be attrid- uted to injury As already stated the cause of the de- cedent’s death was sarccma. A sarcoma is a tumor composed of connective tissue cells thought to be of-embryonic origin. It is a fact that many persons afflict- ed with sarcoma ca~not and do mot re- call any injury to the affected part, agd of the great mass of injuries and bruises Which are received by various persons, an infinitesimal number is followed by a malignant growth, but while this number may be small it is possible that an in- tensive injury may occasionally induce or produce a sarcomatouy growth. In the present case we have the his- tory of an alleged injury occurring on the outside of the elbow. and the ‘em- ploye continued at work for about ten months and made no report of having re- ceived an injury and mo claim for com- Densation was made within one year from date of glaimed injury (as a matter of fact it was over two years before a claim was made) and even when the cm- ploye quit work he made no regort of having been injured, and ‘up tu this time no medical attention had been sought or Teceived. This malignant growth also occurred on the opposite side of the arm from which the injury is claimed to have been received. or could have been re- ceived according to the testimony. - All the above facts show that an in- jury, such as is claimed to have been received, as the length of time elapsing between alleced injury and sarcoma is so great,"and the whole history of the case was so inconsistent that the sar- coma could not have been catsed by the injury as claimed. The claim for compensation must nec- essarily, therefore, be dismissed. PROPOSES SALARY NOT FEES FOR SOME PROBATE JUDGES Judge Artaur B. Calkins of the probate court of New London will be placed on a definite salary, instead . of obtaining his income from the court through fees. in ease a bill now before the general assemdly Is adopted. This bill provides for compensation of the probate judges of the etate In the larger districts on a salary instead of a fee basis. Judge Calking' salary as judge of the New London prebate district would ameunt to $4,000 a year. The present in- come varies according to the size of the estates and the hearings held in con- nection with them, and cannot. readily be estimated but it has been supposed that in the case of the local probate court the fees have amounted to a sum con- siderably in excess: of $4,000. ‘The bill fixes a salary of $7.500 for the Hartford and New Haven districts. $4500 for the Bridgeport difstrict and $4,000 for the New London district. to be paid by the cftate aud provides that all fees collected in. such probate dis- tricts be transmiitted to the state treas- urer. monthly. Necessary office expenses, clerk's ralaries and cost of supplies would be allowed the state, Other judges who would be affected by such a change are L. P. Waldo Mar- vin. Hartford district; John L. Giison, Bridgeport district; Paul L. Miller, of Bridgeport district. It fs estimated that in some of the| districts the judges reseive over $15,000 annual compensation under the fee sys- tem. MT. CALVARY CHURCH TO " RAIBE $4,000 BY JUNE Mt. Calvary Baplist church on High street\ is ‘planning ' to raise $4,000 by June first to enable the church to thoroughly remodel the building which is greatly in need of repairs. ‘The present building is.sald to be about one hundred years old and there is an absolite need of a.general.overhauling or 2 rew building.

FLEMMING LAST SEEN AT NORWICH TOWN FRIDAY Up to p time this (Saturday) morn-' ing the mystery surrounding the disap- pearance of Mrs. Willlam A. Flemming of No. 312 Boswell avenue remained un- solved. Neither Mr. Flemming nor the police have only the slightest clue upon which to work. v The only development in the case Fri- day was the discovery of the fact that Mrs. Flemming boarded a Yantic car at 30 o'clock. It was learned that a Nor- Wich man saw her on the car and that two Greeneville women, acquaintances of the missing woman, also saw her on the car: One of the women talked with her on the car. Mrs. Flemming remarked to this wom- an that she was going to Norwich Town to meet a woman and that the two were then going to the Glen woolen mill of- fice to buy cloth. .The two Greeneville women got off the car at Wightman's switch and Mrs. Flemming remained on the car. It is not known where the miss- ing woman alighted from the car. The motorman’ of the car’said Friday that he made a stop near the Kilroy residence, just the other side of Wightman's switch, but he could not say who got off the car, 1t later developed that two ‘women, one wearing a light coat and the other. a black vplush coat such as Mrs. Flemming had. were seen togéther on Otrobando avenue. It also developed that two Women, one answering the description of Mrs. Flemmiing, were in the office of the Glen woolen mills during the aftermoon and that they purchased two blankets. There- the trail ends. In spite of a persistent day and night search kept up by the police, Mr. Flemming and Reuben Ladd, father of Mrs. Flemming. not the slightest clue of the missing woman's whereabouts has been discovered. = ~ © further telephone call has been re- ed from the unknown woman who notified. Mr. Flemming through R.' F. Smith at Mr. Smith's store on Main street about 3 o'clock Thursday after- noon that Mrs. Flemming had fallen and Russell's home.” The woman who sent in the telephone message remains silent. Why, nobody knows. One theory is that it was Mrs. Flemming herself who did the telephoning. The search will be continued. The po- lice are on the alert for any information | that might lead to some clue they can | follow. ~Every effort is being made to solve the mystery. Any person who has any information that might lead to the discovery of Mrs. Flemming’s where- abouts should immediately call police | headquarters by telephone or notify Reu- ben Ladd, No. 449 Hamilton avenue, by 'phone. ) Mrs. Flemming (Mary Ladd) is She was last seen by Mr. Flemming at noon Thursday when he went home to dinner. She was in her usual good spirits at that time. When seen by Miss Shea on Broadway about 1.30 o'clock she comnlained of not feel- ing very well. Mrs. Flemming has been subject to dizzy spells at various times. Sudden iliness and loss of memory is one theory advanced by her physician that might account for her mysterious disap- Ppearance in her present state of health.
