was much surpleed upon receiving a let-
trr from the Council regarding ”to Train-
way tracks on South Main street. He
thought that a cobble pavement would
be better under the circumstances than a
block pavement. it would also be im-
possible too get the block pavement here
within the time-pacified by the Council
He wanted to macadamize alongside the
tracks wherever necessary and give it six
months' or a year’s trial.
Councilman Volk believed in making
tbe'l‘ramway company live up their con-
tract. He said they should be made to
place block pavement for a space of two
feet outside their rails. They had abused
the privileges they had been given by the
city and left the street in a very bad con—
ditiou. A block pavement wu better
than any other kind that could be put
down. and the company should be made
to place it there.
Councilman Judson thought it would
make very uneven‘traveiing to have the
street macadamined for one of the wheels
and paved for Mothers.
Councilman McMahon said he was in
favor ‘of enforcing the resolution passed
by the Board last Thursday night. No
street in town needed more protection
than South Main street. It required a
block sot close to the rails to keep wagon
wheels from being caught and broken.

Wallace Pelham is a fugitive from
justice. if he is arrested, and the prob
abilities are that he will be in a few days,
he will serve out a sentence in Wethers-

sist him further. ' .
Yesterday afternoon, soon after 3
o’clock, young Pelham’e parents, Mr.
and hire. Marcus L. Pelhain, of 14 Taylor
avenue, went to William P. Smith's
funeral, held from his late home on
Cedar street, leaving their son and a
man named Callahan at work about the
place. Mr. Callahan says that immediate-

important business, be started off.
When the young man‘s parents return-
ed they discovered that their rooms had
been ransacked and 377,150, which was
hidden ina trunk, was missing. The
rooms as well as the trunk were securely
locked. Young Pelham, itis supposed,
had made keys to fit all the looks. The
one on the trunk is very complicated,
and as the trunk isch strongly con_
structed, Mr. Pelham, So, had often re.
marked that it would be impossible for
enyoneto break it open. He was very
much surprised when he found ithad
been unlocked and the money stolen.
His son were a pair of shoes which Mr.
Pelham bad just purchased.
Mrs. Emma Stevens rentstliesecond

of her husband, the lots Charles C. Stev-
ens. was stolen. llrs. Stevens had over
.100 in her apartments, but Pelhani did
not discover its hiding place.
Pelham. it is said, was seen on the‘
depot platform about 8 o'clock, and it is
supposed he took a train cast, as he has
worked in Bridgeport, Waterbury and
