THE FUDA TRIAL.
The first witness called when court
reconvened in the afternoon was Officer
Walter Hall of South Norwalk. He was
the person Who found the hatchet with
which the deed was committed and also
rendered valuable assistance in work-
ing up the case against the two men.
Mr. Hall described the finding of the
weapon, and gave a description of the
appearance of the scene. He told of
footprints discovered by him, evidently
made by a man wearing a large shoe
with a low heel. The prints were along
the stone ballast close to the shoulder,
and were pointing toward White High
bridge. His investigations were made
Saturday morning and afternoon. He
did not know how far they extended.
As there were seven or eight people
around the place at the time, he could
not swear that the footprints were not
made by them, but to the best of his
belief they were not. Previous to. his
visit some 200 to 300 persons had visited
the scene.
On the cross-examination by Mr. J ud-
son considerable opposition was mani-
fested by Mr. Fessenden, and Mr, J ud-
son accused the state’s attorney of hav-
ing something in the testimony of the
officer which he did not care to make a
part of the case. The accusation was
idenied. Mr. Judson continued his cross-
examination amid numerous objections
and finally got the officer to admit that
he had discovered women’s footprints
near the scene of the murder. He fol-
lowed the footprints along the banks by
the side of the track for 300 yards. '
Conductor O’Neil, of the Washington
express, stated that on the night of
Feb1 uary 17, at South Norwalk, two
Italians boaided the train. One of
them sat at the front end of the car and
the other stood up between two of the
seats toward the rear. To all appear-
ances they were strangers to each oth-
er. To the best of his knowledge they
did not hold any conversation. At
Stamford the men got ofi'. Imapassino,
who at the order of State’s Attorney
FesSenden had been brought into the
court room, was at this juncture ush-
ered to where Fuda sat, with his coun-
sel. Both of the men stood up while
Mr. O’Neil subjected them to a close
scrutiny. He identified the men. In
reference to Imapassino he said: “He
looks a little paler than he did when I
saw him on the train, and he didn’t
have any beard then.”
He had taken’careful observation of
the men and could not be mistaken.
Fuda had sat in the front of the car
and Imapassino was the one who stood
up. At Stamford the men got off the
train. He followed their movements
as much as possible. The little fellow
(Imapassino) went down the tracks and
the big fellow (Fuda) .went up the
tracks, said the witness.
On cross examination the testimony
was not shaken. Mr. O’Neil reiterated
his story and was sure that he could
lnot be mistaken.
Mr. O’ Neil was followed by James E.
Cook, who is head brakeman on the
“Wash,” and who was fulfilling his
duties on the night of the murder. He
was called in confirmation of the testi-
mony of the preceding witness. Mr.
Cook stated with a few prods from Mr.
Fessenden in the way of questions that
his attention was called to two men,
Italians, at the South Norwalk depot.
He was talking to a policeman at the
time. The two men appeared very
suddenly from between two cars and
came toward him. He directed them
to the car and then impelled by curi-
osity, caused by the suspicious» actions
of the men, followed them into the car.
He saw that one of them was sitting in
the front seat, while the other had
ensconced himself in the rear of the
car, where he was standing up between
two of the seats.
Here Fuda and Imapassino were
brought forward for inspection. Mr.
Cook identified the men and said that
he knew them as being the same Ital-
ians who boarded the train at {South
Norwalk. Both of the men were paler,
he thought, and Imapassino had grown
whiskers, yet he was perfectly sure
that they were the men.
Continuing his testimony the wit-
ness stated that after leaving the sta-
tion he thought that he would take a
closer look at the men. He had his
lantern with him, and setting this on
the floor, very close to where Fuda sat,
he took a good look at him. He
noticed that the man’s pants, between
the ankle and the knees,were spattered
with mud.
Young Palmi was then called. He
testified:
“ My name is J ames Palmi, I live in
Stamford and have resided there for
the past two years. I was born in Italy
and am 18 years of age. I know Fuda,
the prisoner, well by sight, but did not
know his name. I know Imapassino
well. I knew Mrs. Fuda. Yes, that is
her picture, (indicating a photograph
handed to him by Attorney Fessenden.)
,I saw her last at the Stamford depot.
That man (pointing to Fuda) was with
her. They were inside the depot.
Imapassino was outside and I talked to
to him. I was going to Portchester.
That night was the last time I saw Mrs.
Fuda. A couple of days later I heard
she had been murdered. I left the
three of them at the Stamford depot
and boarded the train for Portchester. ”
“George H. Jacobs, the ticket seller
at the Stamford st1tion told of an Itil—'
in coming to the window where he
’ -.<
trains. There were two of them. He
thought Fuda was one, but could not
say that Imapassino was the other. He
saw Fuda on that night about a quarter
after 9 o’clock in the station. There
was a woman with him. Fuda pur-
chased one ticket and the man with
him bought two for South Norwalk. ”
The second day of the Fuda murder
trial concluded shortly before 5 o’clock
Wednesday afternoon, and the evidence
introduced during the closing hours of
the session left no doubt in the minds
of the court attendants and spectators
that the representatives of the state are
slowly weaving a web of circumstantial
evidence around the accused from the
meshes of which it will be extremely
difficult, even for the astute counsel for
the defense, to extricate their client.
During the entire day of the session
it was difficult to surmise from the evi-
dence introduced on the part of the
state just what objective point reached
for would show the plan of the prosecu-
tion; but late in.the afternoon, when
the attorney for the state finished with
two of his witnesses, it was made mani-
fest beyond peradventure that three
persons, Italians, two men and a woman,
the'latter with a checked shawl, pur-
chased at the ticket office at the Stam-
ford depot three tickets for South Nor-
walk.
The shawl found on the murdered
woman and produced in court was
identical with the shawl worn by the
Italian woman who was in the party of
three at the Stamford depot and se-
cured tickets as stated for the 9:21 train
east.
James Palmi an Italian lad 18 years
of age, but exceedingly bright, was one
of the star witnesses for the state. He
established the fact and his testimony
was corroborated later in the after-
noon that Fuda was in the' depot with
his wife shortly before the arrival of
the 9:21 train. He was called out of
the depot by Imapassino. The lad
knew Fuda and his wife and could not
be mistaken. He saw the two men
talking earnestly for a few moments
and that w as the last time he saw Mrs.
F uda alive. He v. as shown a photo-
graph of the murdered woman and
identified it as the woman with Fuda
when he saw the party together in the
Stamford depot. .
Another important witness for the
state and the last one to be called, was
Martin Ryan of Stamford, who has
worked for the N. Y., N. H. 8.: H. R. R.
for the past seven years. In answer to
the questions of the attorney for the
state the witness said: "Yes, I was on
duty at the depot on the night of Feb-
"ruary 17 last. I saw an Italian and a
woman sitting on the bench in the de-
pot before the departure of the 9:21
train. I saw another Italian call the
man from the woman in the depot. In
the course of a few minutes I had oc-
casion to speak to the men and they
went over to the west side of the depot.
“Could you identify the man who
was with the woman that night ‘9”
“Yes sir, I can.”
“ Fuda, stand up 1” said Attorney
Fessenden.
“That’s the man that I saw Sittinor 1n
the depot with the woman,” said the
witness.
Mr. Fessenden told the sheriff to bring
the other prisoner, Imapassino, before
the witness. “ That’s the man that
called the other one with the woman
from the station,” said the witness
without hesitation. The state, as may
be seen, established the prima facia
fact that the prisoners were last seen
in company with F uda’s wife and they
were the last persons to see her alive.
They will now have to account for their
actions between that time when they
boarded the 9:21 train and the subse-
quent finding of the body and what he-
came of the woman. t is believed that
the state will take up the thread of evi-
dence from the time the trio bearded
in the vicinity of the murder.
the state introduced evidence leading
up to the above points.
Much of the testimony introduced
was to corroborate the preliminary evi-
dence secured the day before showing
the circumstances surrounding the find-
ing of the body of the murdered woman.
The shawl wrapped about the shoulders
of the dead woman and the hatchet
found on the scene which was used to
inflict the terrible gash on the head,
were introduced and offered in evi-
dence. The medical examiner testified
that no less than 12 wounds were inflict-
ed upon the woman.
The bloody footprints along the tracks
and on the retaining wall above the
bridge in East Norwalk where the body
was found, was testified to by Charles C.
Ross a conductor and others.
Dr. William C. Burke, the medical
examiner, testified as to the autopsy.
He said that any one of the 12 wounds
on the body was suflicient to prove fatal.
The most extensive wound extended
from the crown of the head to the neck
back of the left ear. This gash severed
the spinal cord and chipped off a piece
of the unfortunate woman’s skull. The
organs of the body were all found to
be in a healthy condition.
Martin Ryan, the man who identified
Fuda and Imapassino as being in com-
pany with a woman at the st .1tion on
I the night of the murder, and spoke to
them, was the last Wit aess to testify
'and the court orler ed an aujournment.

R. W. Lewis of NaugatuCk, abrother-
in-law of the late S. C. Patterson, who
died suddenly at the N orwalk hospital,
arrived here yesterday afternoon and
gave instructions in reference to the
care of the remains which are at the
undertaking establishment of J. D.
Jennings. They will be placed in a
casket and sent to Botsford Station, to
morrow morning, and from ghence
taken to Monroe, where the deceased
has a brother living. No word has yet
been received from Mrs. Patterson.
Mr. Frank Selleck was in receipt, last
evening, of the news of the death of his
mother-in-law, Mrs. Ellen Sherwood,
at the Sanitarium in Stamford, of which
institution she had been an inmate for
some months past. Some years since
Mrs. Sherwood bought the Spencer
property on Belden avenue, and it was
while living there that her daughter
married Frank Selleck, but died soon
after giving birth to a child, which sur-
vives. Mrs. Sherwood was the widow
of Francis Sherwood, and was about 65
years of age. One daughter, who lives
in Binghamton, New York, survives
her. The remains will pgobably be
taken to Greenwich for interment. Mr.
Selleck is in Stamford to-day making
necessary arrangements for the funeral.
The work of putting in the switch
connecting the Street Railway line
with the Tramway line to Westport at
a point near St. Paul’s church is nearly
completed, and the stringing of neces-
sary wires for the furnishing of power
by the Street Railway company will
probably be completed so that cars will
be run through from the Norwalk club
house to Westport on Memorial day.
The matter between the two roads
had been practically settled some time
since, but the work of completing the
connection has been somewhat delayed
owing to legal questions that arose in
reference to the signing of papers by
the two companies.
It is understood that the cal s 1 unning
to VVestport will 1 un on a schedule with
the N orwalk club building as the start-
ing point at this end of the route.
N ow let the company establish a five
cent fare to Westport and we may all,
who wish to visit Westport, be happy
yet.

BETTER WEATHER PBBDIOTIONB.
Important Developments From Bloom
Experiments \Vlth Kites.
Washington, May 27.-——The most sig-
nificant development in weather fore—
casting for years, making it possible to
forecast for a period at least 16, hours
longer than at present, and more ac-
curately, has been attained by the
weather bureau and soon will be ap-
plied practically. It is the result of the
experiments with kites flown’ at dis-
tances one to two miles above the sur-
face of the earth. Daily readings have
been taken for some time at this alti—
tude, and the fact has been established
that shifting of the wind takes place at
a mile level above the earth’s surface
from 12 to 16 hours before the same
change of direction takes place on the
surface. This is due to the same forces
which operate to cause wind shifts to
produce a. storm, one condition being
dependent on the other.
Secretary of Agriculture Wilson has
taken great interest in the experiments.
which were made by Chief Moore of the
weather bureau, and his consultations
with Professor Moore have resulted
in the formulation of ‘a policy which
will make weather predictions more
valuable in the future.
The most imperfect part of weather
forecasting now is the prediction as to
rain or snow. Meteorologists for the
last ten years have been impressed
with the fact that future data as to
storms must come from a knowledge of
upper air conditions. The aeroplane in-
vestigations, as announced today, have
reached that point where it can be safe-
ly stated that within six months the
government weather bureau, for the
first time in the history of any meteor-
ological service, can construct a tele-
graphic synchronous chart based on air
conditions one mile above the earth.
This chart will cover the conditions be-
tween the Alleghanies and the Rockies
at the outset.
Chief Moore says this step probably
will mark a new epoch in the weather
forecasting problem. With these high
level readings the bureau will have the
moisture contents of the upper strata
as well as the lower. It will be seen
how important this double information
is when it is considered that the two
strata of air may, by shifting of the
wind, become mixed within 24 hours.
and that the precipitation will depend
upon the average moisture of the mass.
A Remarkable Man~or Story.
Luigi Erba, a remarkable Italian
from Perugia, about 40 years of age,
started out some time ago to pick up
wives of all races. With them he re-
tired to Polynesia, and word comes from
his retreat that he is now the happy fa-
ther of 370 children. He set up his
harem in 1889.
m wasmfit‘innlni: the "Theatre.
The late John Stetson, the shrewd
but illiterate American theatricai man~
ager of whom so many stories are
told, once had a business manager un-
der him whose name was Sharp. One
day Stetson came to the theatre and
saw a big sign above the door that
said: “Matinee .to-day at 2 o'clock
sharp!” “Hallo,” said Stetson, “seems
to me that fellow’s putting on airs!
Take in that sign and put out one,
‘Matinee todlay at 2 o’clock. Stetson}
I am running this theatre.”
