, The authorities are still diligently in-
vestigating the death of the Italian
woman.who was found murdered along’
4'
side the railroad track in East Norwalk.
Wednesday night. It now seems pro-
bably that within twenty-fear hours the
mystery will be solved. and that the
police will be hard on the track of her
murderer.
.Auother clue. and a most important
one, has been found. It comes through
the trainmeu and passengers on the ac-
commodation due in South Norwalk at
9:41. On the night of the murder Robert
M. Russell, one of the brakeman on the
train, noticed an Italian woman. who
answers in every essential the descrip‘
lieu of the dead woman, and two men
get on the train at Stamford. The men
went forward into the smoking car, and
the woman took a seat in the couch fol-
lowing. The brakeman took particular
notice of the woman because she would
frequently getup from her seat and look
into the smoking car, as if to keep the
two men constantly in sight. They had
tickets for South Norwalk, but asked the
brakeman if they could not go on to
East Nlirwalkltthey paid the addition
fare. He replied that they could. and
they remained on the train until it
reached the East Norwalk station. Here
the girl appeared in no hurry to leave
the train, and the brakoman asked her!
if she was not going to get off. After
sum 3 hesitation she followci the men.
Policeman Pennington and Hall, of
South Nor-walk, lrought Policeman
Foley and Nevins from Stamford lato
last night; also the brakeman who was
on the train that left Stamford at 9:21
Wednesday night. They all identified
the murdered woman as ulll‘ they had
seen Wednesday evening. Nevins said
she and two men passed him going tow-
ards the railroad station at Stamford
about 9 p. m. Foley, who was on duty
in the station. saw them go aboard th‘.
0:21 cast-bound train.
The brakemau remembered that tho
men not in the smoking car and the
Woman sat in the front of the following
our. watching them. They all had lick-
ots for South Norwalk. One of the men
paid cash fares for the three from South
Norwalk to EaetNorwalk. They all gel
off at East Norwalk at ilzli p. Ill. The
woman seemed to hesitate about leaving
the train. but the men [a'l'suudod her.
The Stamford police say that all thrml

Yesterday afternoon Medical Examin-
er Burke performed an autopsy on tho
hotly of the woman. Ho found that her
head hull been literally jabbed full of
wounds. which had not before been dis-
cernablc on account of the thick matted
hair. The physicians found all her or-
gans in a normal condition. There was
no evidence of an assault having been
committed. Dr. Allen assisted.

William Sachtier. who lives not far
from the White High bridge. testified
that about to p. 131.. Wednesday. whi'o
ouhis way home. he saw a man and a
woman under the hitch street bridge.
They were nottllking loudly or doing
anything remarkable. but his attention
was attracted by using them in such
aplaceatuueb a time. It is not an
likely that these two were the mar
Mr and his victim.

' mbaukment towards the railroad track.
Mr. Phillips returned a short time later
and saw the same man up on the bridge
again. He had his hands in his pockets
and was walking back and forth.
Constable A. W. Allen. of Bangatuck.
testified that he went to the place where
the body lay as soon as the alarm was
given. He took alautcra from one of
the brakemen and hello to examiu’
the footprints in the snow. Then he saw
a young man running through the out.
He ran and caught him, and asked
where he was going. The young man
explained that he had just got off the
train: that his'home was in First live
one, East Norwaik. and he was hurrying
there because his mother was sick
Allen let him go without taking his
name. '
Then the constable went back to the
footprints in the snow and the sparse
soil that clings aniougthe ledges of the
great boulders. First he found six foot-
prints made by small feet running up
of two small hands in the snow and
earth. It was as if a woman running
up the bank had slipped and fallen. She
had clutched desperately at the earth.
pulled herself half erect and started
again. u
On either sideoi the footprints were
splotches of blood. The woman \vont
two paces further, then fell or was
struck down again This time she fill
limp and senseless. for there was no
further sign of struggling.
The testimony of Policeman Walter
Hall. of South Norwalk. who accompan-
ied Medical Examiner Burke to the
scene of the murder yesterday morning,
showed how the woman had gone to her
death. Hall took with him the shoes
worn by the woman, thick soled, elastic
sided gaiters of Italian make, but small
and shapely. One heel was much worn
down at the back and side.
Hall found tracks leading from'thc
White High Bridge westward along the
southern embankment of the railroad.
The dead woman‘s shoes fitted them
exactly. The tracks led from the bridge
westward for more than two hundred
yards. The woman evidently had been
followed by a man. Hi; wore broad-
soled. heavy nailed shoes. twelve inches
long and especially wide at the toes.
The tracks showed that the woman
was in the lead. At the point mention-
ed she turned and walked diagonally
down the bank towards the track. Tho
man still followed. They went along
astone retaining wall. which forms a
sort of plateau at the foot of the slope
The wall is there to keep debris from
rolling down into the ditch beside the
rails. r
Josiah H. Jones, who lives about sov-
enty yards from the place wherefbo
body was found. stated that he thought
he heard a woman cry out “fire," about
9:45 o'cloek. lie got up and went in the
door but everything was still at that
time.
Ernest Bruudnge also testified.

of nyouug ltalian girl who got on his
train at Stamford at out on the night of
February 17th. She appeared to be
alone when she got on. His attention
was first attracted to the girl by hm-
looking into the smoking car. At the
East Norwalk station she came out of
the much and chard on the platform.
Banned if she was going to get off.
and she [saluted into the smoker and
said. “The man. the man." He knew
that the tun men in the smoker were
to get on at East Norwalk from
remarks thny had made to him.
At Rowayton. the short man asked
where they were. Mr. finssell told him
the next stop was Booth horwuk. The:
said. “The next siniiou?" The brake-
mau replied, "You mean East Nor“

five feet five or six inches. He had on
a black Fedora hat. His complexion
was not very dark. and he had a black
moustache. He was smoking a pipe. He
had on a short black sack coat. He
would weigh 145 pounds. and was
about twentyvsevcn years of age.
The other man was four inches

small round cap. He was dark complex-
ioned.also wore a little black moustache.
He appeared about the same age as the
other man. and was tall and cloud-
or. The man had on a sack coat,
and neither were overcoats. The
tall man had two tickets and the
short man one for South Nor-walk. The
tall man gave the conductor fifteen
cents, from which to take out the fares
to East Norwalk. The men remained
in their seats, and he had to go in and
tell them that that was the place to get
out. The woman stood behind him. and
he stepped out of the way to let her get
off. She hesitated. and the short man,
who was on tho platfl‘irm,said“()onie onl’
She had on a pair of clumsy shoes, and
acted as if she was very near-sighted,
and he helped her get off the train. The
girl stood close to the train and the two
men stood near the station. He remark-
ed to a gentleman. whom he after-
ward found out was a reporter on a Nor-
walk paper, that it was unusual for
Italians to pay their fare for such a
short distance. He Was in the car orn-
ployecs’ house at New Haven when the
brakemen from the 12 o’clock train came
in and told of the finding of the girl
When he read yesterday that it was
thought the murder was committed by
someone from Westport or Bridgeport.
he deemed it his duty to set the officers
on the right track if possible.
Elton B. Baker, ticket agent at South
Norwalk. said he noticed the two men
in the depot. They came in the west
door of the west-bound station. They
were apparently Italians. The shorter
one asked. what time a train went to
Glenbrook. He replied. that there were
no more trains that night. but that
one went to Stamford at 12 25:5
At i2:i.‘. he heard a noise in the
waiting room, and looking out
saw those two men sitting in a dark
corner. The smaller man then bought
two tickets for Stamford. left the larger
man and took a seat on the west side of
the station. The tall man had on a cap
'nnd the short man a soft hat. He did
not see the man get on the train. but
the conductor had told him they did
and that at Stamford the short man
started up the track toward lenbrook.
while the other man went inthooppo‘

dead girl. and identified her as having

and sat down near the door. She
appeared to be near-sighted. She eat
our the window. and as he went out
he saw two men standing outside, but
ill-did not see them speak to the girl.
He left the depot then,but he heard
:lftorward that the employees at the
station took notice of the girl. and the
agent said that when the train name in
one of tho men bought one ticket to
South Norwalk, and the other bought
two. Officer Nevins told him he had

are E. B. Fitz and Kathryn Webster.
A great deal of original and tuneful mu»

production. ‘fl‘A Breezy Time" ifaver-
itable mint of mirth, and it depends for
success on legitimate ability on the part
of the performers rather than upon ”sug-
gestiveness." like and Webster have
added many new and original features
this season worthy of note.
Edison’s Winner.
The Edison Vitascope, a grand enter-
tainment in itself, will not be the only
feature of Saturday evening’s attraction
at Iloyt's Theatre. A refined and high-
class vaudeville. by the best metropoli~
tan vaudeville artists. will be given in
conjunction with the Vitascope. thereby
presenting one of the strongest attrac-
tions presented in this city this season.
The magniflcient life motion pictures
from the Vitascope is alone worth the
admission, and the vaudeville portion
worth the price of another admission.
Wherever this company has played.
they have been greeted by large and
appreciative audiences, and no one can
well afford to miss this grand exhibition.
Every man, woman and child owe
themselves the duty of seeing the nine-
teenth century wonder, and you may
not soon again have the opportunity of
witnessing so scientific an exhibition of
the greatest animated picture machine
in the world. Popular prices prevail.
Seats now on sale at usual places.
Cosmopolitan Concert Company.
A rousing reception was given Miss
May Lyle Smith at the end of each of
her flute solos. These solos included
Terschak's “Favorite do Vienne" and
Kolxler‘s"Barcarole“ and “Dapillion.”
In response to storms of applause they
were supplemented by two other pieces.
The rather unfamiliar sight of witness-
ing a young woman play the flute‘did
not explain the reason for the ovation
tendered her. The real cause for it was
plainly due to her superb performance.

The committee on Railroads, as stated
in yesterday’s Sentinel, had another ‘
steanrtmlley hearing yesterday after».
noon, and the great crowd which was
present was surprised when, at the very
outset. Chairman Kendall ‘mnuunced’
that the committee had decided to strike
out of such charters and amendments as
wore to be granted, the clause exempt- ‘
ing the roads from the operav .
tion of section eight, Which is
that parties contemplating the autism ‘
tion of a trolley line must appear hetero
the Superior Court, if the proposed‘linu
is to parallel any established road. and *
prove that public convenience and 116-.
cessity demands the new road. ,-
The committee’s decision is a victory
and a just one for the Consolidated nilv ‘
road and augurs well for a further div '
play of justice and common sense when ‘
the real question of repeal comes up. '
The Sentinel correctly stated it yes»

The proceedings in both branches was
decidedly uneventful today. The Sun-
ate sat twenty-five minutes and the
House seven minutes. Both adjourned
to meet Tuesday at 12:30. No business
_of importance was transacted. '
