‘Ao'ouooil oi Shooting Willi in'
tool to Kill. Granary.

, iiiiicii malicious

Motorman Hanlon. Conductor Webb
And Frank van Boron, Also Tooti-
fy—Tlic Cans Adjourned Until
Next Week Saturday.

The trial - of‘Phiiip L. Wheeler.
charged with assault .with attempt to

’ , kill Stephen S. Gregory. on the night

, of Septemb . 28.,camc up. this morn-
ing. before Judge H. W. Gregory. in
the Town Court. at Norwalk. Tho ac-

~ cased pleaded not guilty. A large num-
ber of spectators were present.

The shooting took place in West ave-
nue. in front of hit. Mary's Church.
about. 8 o'clock in the evening. The
facts. as they appeared at that time,
were that Wheeler stood talking with
Miss. Emily Englehart and Mrs. Win-
field Scott. when Gregory rode by on
his bicycle. He stopped abruptly, ap-
proached the trio. and. it was alleged.
struck Wheeler. when the latter pulled
a revolver, and fired twice in rapid suc-

cession. Gregory had kept company
with Miss Englchart, and it was sup.
posed that he had attacked Wheeler
through jealousy, it being reported
that the two men had before quarreled
over the woman.

Attorney Edward M. Lockwood ap‘

peared for the state, and Attorney
John J. Walsh conducted the defense
of Wheeler.
. The charges were three in number,
breach of the peace, assault. and as-
sault with intent‘ to murder. Upon
the latter charge. the prosecuting at-
torney said it lay with the court to
hear the evidence, and that if in his
opinion there was not sufficient evi-
dence to warrant me charge, he might
find probable cause for the lesser
crime of assault with intent to kill.

Attorney Walsh objected to this
method of procedure. and Attorney
Lockwood at. once amended his com-
plaint with an additional clause of as—
sault. with intent to kill.

The case is in any event a binding
ovcr case if probable cause is found.
If the court should find the prisoner

,n‘cted in self defense, it will end with
his discharge in this court.
, Dr. W. J. Tracey was the first wit-
ness called. wiic testified to the fact
that he was called to take care of the
injuries of Stephen, S. Gregory at the
Norwalk Hospital. Dr. Tracey stated
that be accompanied Gregory to the
hospital in the ambulance on the night
'of the shooting. He then described
the injuries as already printed in The
Sentinel. As a result of the bullet
wound through the lip and cheek.
Gregory. the doctor said, has been on-
ablo to open his mouth as he should.
This is caiiscd by an injury to the mus-
cle of the check and jaw. Dr. Tracey
said ,he could not state positively how
this factor of the case would result.

' He thought the troublc arose from a
contraction of the muscles due to the
injury healing. but believed in time
this would be overcome.

The second wound was in the back
of the neck and was evidently fired at
his back. as the powder marks were
around the wound. The wound in the
face must have been fired in the face.
as this wound was also marked by
powder.

in the opinion of Dr. Tracey. the per-
son who did the shooting must Have
been right over him to have inflicted
the wound in tho wound in the back,
or the shot might have been ilred’as
Gregory stooped over or toll forward.
It might be possible that the injury
could have iiccn inflicted while he was
standing crcct. .

'i‘llo biiilcis taken from Gregory‘s
wounds were idontificd liy Dr. Tracey"
and marked as an exhibit in the case.

When asked about the result of the
powder wounds. Dr. Tracey said there
was no danger at, present. though at
the time of tlic injury inflammation
might havc not in. and caused death.

Attorney Walsh did not care to
cross-examine Dr. Tracey at this time
and owing to the nature of the testi-
mony. Judge Gregory gave the defense
permission to call him in later, if it
Was desired.

James P. ”union. the motormau on
n Rod Linc car, which passed at the
time of the shooting. was the next wit-
ness. He said his attention was first
attracted by two pistol shots. followed
by groans. as if someone had been in-
:liiroii. Ho judged there was, perhaps.
three or five scconds'intorval botwccn
the shots. Mr. lluulon saw two womv
on and a man standing near the main
entrance. to tho church yard. He
could not identify them. The time of
tho shooting be placed at about ten
miiiutcn punt. olgpt. From hint-obser-
vation. he did not cool Gregorywwho
was probably lying on thcgroundt.

Attorney Walsh did .not'hoarcint
crossoxamino. " "

Frank Van lluren. a passenger on
Motormsn Huiilon'a iir. also heard
the shots. Ho wanffipt examined at
length. and tbcre wa 'no cross‘cxamv
lnntlon. ,

Conductor Ralph A. Webb. of tho
8:07 down car, said his attention was

, attracted by the shots. He had passed
Motorman Hanion'n car near Elm
street. and was too far away to dis-
cern what the shooting was. He saw
(the :llasbcs. however. The first flash
homo. looked as if if was just south
, :the midqio guts to the church. The

rot flash was horizontal. and the sec-

mull was on an angle towards the

‘ d. but in the some direction.

ington was hastily summoned, but Mr.
Guthrie had passed away before he ar-
rived. Tho death was due to heart
failure.

Mr. Guthrie has been prominent in
Silvermine affairs. and was a worthy
citizen of that section of the town.
He had been engaged in the lumber
business for many years, and conduct-
ed the large Guthrie saw mill.

Mr. Guthrie is the father of Claude.

SPECIAL Tiflil Nill lilil

Sign-Post at Rowayton to be Discon-
tinued—Petition for Sidewalk Re-
pairs in East Norwaik Laid
Upon the Table.

for a special tax to pay for the work.
was laid upon the table. and the ex
peace will be included in the regular
budget at the" annual town meeting.

in the matter of discontinuing the
sign-post at ltowayton. it was stated
that the sign-post Was not necessary.
because of the newspaper notices. and
that the notices on the. sign-post were
rarely. if ever consultcd. it. was voted
that the sign-post be discontinued.

The pctition asking the scicctmcn to
repair the walk on the east side of
East Washington street. just this side
of VanZundt avcuuc, was laid upon
the table. as the town is not rcspon‘
sibic for sidewalks.

The meeting tlicn adjourned. There
were upward of sixty voters present.

der way.

NEW FACTORY IN DANBURY.

Three Hundred Men to be Employed
in Soft Hat Factory.

What is considered in trade and bus
incss circles one of the most import-
ant announcements that has been
made in Danilury for the last five
years. was made yesterday, when J
W. Green. one of the largest hat maiiu
factiirci's in the city. announced that
he had completed negotiations for one
of Beckie & Co.‘s factories. and would
immediately equip ii. for the manufac-
ture of soft hats. The new factory
will have a capacity of 3,000 hats a
day, and it is expected that upwards
of 300 men will be given employment
Mr. Green states that he is hopeful
that Danbury can bemade as import-
not a center for the manufacture of
soft hats. as it is now for derby hats.

FATHER'S MEMORIAL ARCH.

" A grandson‘of Muses Rogers. and

cousin of the late Mrs. General William
P. Van Renssnlaer. of the Albany
Patroon Manor. was in town yesterday
and, much pleased with the memorial
ircii project. made his contribution.
and will at once proceed to call the at-
icniion of the families of President
and Eva King. to the descendant claims
of our ancient cemetery.

ll‘rom the fact that Mr. Solicck has
now the influential acquiescence of the
l.udiow. Gov. Fitch. Rogcrs, Plait and
probably King representatives. it may
fairly be argued that the worthy enter-
prise of erecting an historic stone col-
umn to the memory of the first parents
of this old plantation is on the high
road to successful consummation. A
room! ciiccry communication from (‘Iii-
cage is to the point in this direction.
