The Union School district 11 still with
out a site for a new school house. The
special meeting held last night. although
it 1.101111111111111 a larger attendance than
any of the series, did not result in a much
nearer solution of the problem than was
obtained at the previous meetings.
There was present. however, a strong
delegation in favor of a school-house in
Graniteville. and as they took the credo
of impressing their claim upon the com-
mittee, they Were in exceedingly jubi~
lan’t spirits. They “hunched" for
Graniteville until they vverc all hoarse;
also for S. C. Palmer, the leader of their
forces. and for each other.

Ell-Mayor it. B. Golden presided at
the meeting, and Clerk Nelson Dicker-
nlun read the call. The following reso-
lution was presented byJ. Donovan:

Resolved, That an informal ballot be
taken upon 11 site or sltes in the diil'cr-
ent parts of the city, each one to vote
upon the locality or site he prefers, and
that the meeting after the informal bal-
11 11; is declared shall mowed to vote upon
the two sites which receive the greatest
number of votes.

P. L. Cunningham objected to this

‘ procedure. claiming that a tmrthirds

vote would not be secured for any site,
and consequently nothing would be ac-
complished.

called, on five times to discredit one of
the sites mentioned in the call; namely.
the city lot. He thought the proceed-
ings to secure a new school-house were
allwrong. We should do our duty. he
said, to the 100 citizens of Graniteville
who had asked the committee for a
school. Their wish Was not expressed
in the call.

Mr. Donovan explained that his rose.
lotion would not prevent the expression
of a preference for any site. whether
mentioned in 11111 call or not.

At this point Peter Benjamin. a real
dent of Greniteville. secured the floor
to state that he was not a foreignerhbut
was the son of 11 foreigner, and wanted
the petition from Granitevillc citizens
recognlzed by the committee.

John J. Barry said he doubted if the
committee would consider any expres-
sion of the citizens for a site in Granite-
villc. John H Light. of the committee,
replied that they would.

Edward Quitner spoke favorably to

placing a fourvrooln addition to the

Franklin street school, and erecting a
four or live-room school in the vicinity
of Taylor avenue. He made 11
motion to that effect. and S. C.
Palmer oil‘el'ed 11s 1111 amendment that
“a committee of three be appointed by
this meeting to select a site in or near
that section known as (iraniteville, and
that this committee be requested to in-
form the school co‘mmitteo of their selec-
tion and that the school committee be
directed to call 11 meeting of the district
to vote 011 the adoption of said site."
Robert Pearson oll'ored 11 further
amendment that “11 school-house also be
constructed ill Woodward avenue."
Nelson Taylor slated that Mr. Pal-
mer’s motion and 11111 alllendmcnt were
not proper 1;) come before the meeting,
as they were entirely new 11111ttcr, not
in them“, and therefore could not be
acted upon

Edwin Adams oil'erod another 11111111111-
ment to the ed‘cctthat “it is the sense
of this meeting thal a comluitts be ap-
pointed to find out the needs of the dis-
trict.“

This was 11111111111111 to be out of order.
and with lilr.l‘.1bner‘e resolution was
so ruled by the chair.

John J. Barry thought the petition of
Grunlteville citizens should have been
recognized, and had 11 place in 1.1111 111111,
and be than expressed his opinion sev-
eral times.

Joseph .Popp attempted several times
to get an audience. but his remarks
caused no 111111111 laughter among the
people from his 1111111011 that the chain
man had to call for order, and did not
recognize the speaker.

A motion was made by Howard Ii.

The death of a Woman in a cell at the
South Norwalk station-house, last night,
awakened unusual interest and excite-
ment in the city, causing the customary
morbidly curious crowd to collect about
police headquarters in Havilnnd street.
and later in trout of Undertaker D. W.
Raymond's rooms in Washington street.
to which place the body was removed.

About 7 o'clock two women were found
under 11111 railroad bridge at Monroe
street. One of Liveryman Solmans’
coaches, in charge of George Knapp. was
summoned from the depot by William
N. Urnw.a11d011e of the women, who
appeared stupid from over-indulgence in
liquor, was placed in it. The other wo-
man refused to enter. She swore feroc-
iously, and struck Knapp when he. with

Her companic 1n could be heard moan-
ing inside the coach. At the station
house she was lifted out and carried in~
side, where she died almost immediate-
1y.

Medical Examiner Burke. was called,
and lift or a hasty examination expressed
the belief that death was due to upo-
plexy.

The woman who ran into the hotel
was pllued under arrest on a charge of
intoxication. At the station-house she
was recognized as Mrs. Samuel Gaylor.
wife of the former proprietor of well-
kuown hoslelries at Weslport, Ring's
End Landing at Noroton, the Fairview
House at ltownylon. and now a residenl

fused to give the name of her compan-
ion until about 1) o'clock, when Rev.

Pennington was permitted to speak to
her.

To Father Winters she said that her
friend was Mrs. Sweet. whose husband
is employed in Fitch‘s Soldiers' Home,
Noroton. and that they had come to
South Norwalk on the loll} train in the
afternoon to do some shopping.

M111. Gaylor, while conversing with
Father Winters, appeared sober, and ex-
pressed great concern for her two small
children, whom she hurl left llloue‘ at
home. She was afraid her husband,
who isiu business in Stamford. would
not return last night.

The news of his wife's sudden death
first came to Mr. Street through a Son-

Superintendent Coo the circumstances,
and from him learned that William W.
