DANIELSON At sesslons of the town court heid Monday—afternoon and evening—an ac- cumulation of cases that marked thé passing of Sunday were neard. Peter Ennes and Slya Staenk were in to tell the court about a misunderstanding in which they became involved over a game of cards, Simday afternoon, at the Ennes hoghe at Connecticut Village. ' The disturbdfice became so loud as to an- noy the meighborhood, so Officers Martin Wolfe was called to take the men into custody. They spent the night at the police station. In court they admitted the chargest against them; a fine and costs in the case of Ennes amounting to $11.74, while the / assessment against staenk, who comes from Jewett City, figured $13.74. Ennes had the money and pald, but he would not come to the aid of his erstwhile friend Staenk and the latter had to borrow enough to add to his own small store—from an outside source—to satisfy the clalms of the court. Another man wng encountered what might be termed a real case of hard luck was Frank Corizau of Chicopee Falls— the town that figures in so many inte- resting stories. Frank came to this town to visit over Sunday with his brother- in-law, who innocently suggested a lit- tls fishing party at the Middle reservoir sbove East Killingly. The idea struck Frank as fine, so the trip was made. Frank hadn't caught a fish (they havea' been bitting real well up there for a week), had barely wet his line in fact when he was accosted by Game Warden Harry E. Battey and informed that as a non-resident of this state he was violating one of its laws by fishing in its waters without having a license to do-so. Frank told his story to Judge W. Fen- ner Woodward In court. Ths court was sympathetic and fined Frank only 35, which was remitted, but the actual costs in the case amounted to $16.34, and these the mccused bad to pay for what was an innocent' but illegz! outing. A emse to have been heard Mendsy afternoon was that of Walter Wells of this town. He will face a charge of operating a motor vehicle while he was in an intoxicated condition. Wells' ma- chine figured in an accident early Sun- day evening at a point near Fall Brook on the state highway between Danfelson and Wauregan. The machine crashed with & horse-drawn vehicle owned by Jo- seph Bedard, who lives in the nelghbor- hood. No one was seriously hurt in the affalr, which was the means of bringing 2 long line of automobiles to the vicinity, Chiet John McFarland said that one of Wells' friends was leading him away when officers arrived. The chief, how- ever, got in touch with Wells and told him that his presence wouid %o required in court Monday. The case was fixed for 2 p. m., but there was a misunder- standing as to the time between court officers and the state police, so the case was put over until Thuraday.

The diversified dealings, mainly at substantial gains, aggregated 1,225,000 shares. \ Speculative interest continued to cen- ter in the transportations, the wage cut by the railroad labor board evidently be- ing regarded as a decided offset to the forthcoming reduction in freight rates. Numerous railway issues were lifted one to two points during the forenoon, but & considerable part of this gain was cancelled or materially reduced later on exXpectation that maintenance of way and railway shop employes might order a strike vote on the wage question. The market was put to another test of its endurance just before the close on news that United States supreme court had declared that Southern Pacific-Cen- tral Pacific combination illegal. This precipitated addltional selling' and ac- centuated the irregular tone at the end. Other prominent features of the early and intermediate periods embraced many domestic and foreign oils, notably Mexi- can Petroleum and Standard Oils of New Jersey and California, Phillips Petroleum and General Asphalt. Steels, motors and equip- ments rose one to six points while the advance was under way, rubbers, tobac- cos, sugars and the usual miscellaneous stocks also meking pronounced gains, but for the most part these, too were sub- Jecte dto sharp impairment on heavy re- alizing sales. General news over the week-end was favorable to the market’s constructive side. Railroad tonnage showed gains and April earnings of leading roads were mainly favorable. Copper prices hard- ened and statements from authoritative sources regarding the steel merger were more reassuring. Belief that defnite results will follow the meetings of the allied reparations commissidn infused further strength to ihternational exchanges. Sterling remit- tances held at last week's average quo- tations, but all the allied bills were higher with German marks.

CHICAGO GRAIN Chicago, May 29.—Wheat suddenly be- came a drug on the market in Chicago today, burdening owners and smashing prices at the last more than 10 cents a bushel as compared with earlier in the board of trade session. Nearly 650 car- loads had arrived here today, and with prospective further heavy receipts tomor- row and next day adding to a big accum- ulation already at hand, seemed to put an. overwhelming weight on prices. The market closd unstable at 2 l-!l cents to six cents net decline, with May and July both $1.18 3-4 to $1.18 7-8 and ‘September $1.16 3-4 to $1.16 7-8. Corn finished 7-8 to 1 1-2 cents down, an doats off 3-8 to 3-4 cents, In provi- sions, the outcome varled from unchanged figures to 12 cents higher. Although it was definitely known befors the opening that new arrivals of wheat here today would exceed 500 carloads, the tracts, fact that deliveries on May con 595,000 bushels were of less magnitude than had generally been looked for led to a temporary upturn_in prices. Talk about Germany getting a billlon dollar loan ‘tended also to stimulate buying on chance the final settlement of May wheat contracts would force the wheat market into wild jumps in price. cemetery.
