D'Onoirlo Walks lntolhe Armani
South Norwalli Police.

HM] BEEN HllllNG IN WILTON

Willingly Accompanied Captain of Po
~l|ce Gladstone to the Headquar-
tern, Where he Made a Confes-
sion to Chief Vollmer.

Benedetto D'Onofrio. the murderer-of
Garrett Barry. walked into the hands
of the police. somewhat tired and foot~
Bore, last night. about 7 o’clock, and
after he was lauded behind the bars
he apparently appeared happy. That
he was able to elude the officers of the
law for three days and three nights
seems almost incredible. from the man—
ner in which the ground was covered.
There was hardly half a mile within a
radius of thirty miles from South Nor—
wulk, outside of the woods. that was
not under police surveillance. '1 be ing-
itive from justice would hme certainly
been captured in a very short time. as
the police were slowly. but surely
weaving a net that. would eventually
bring the murderer within its meshes.
. Yesterday afternoon was the climax.
when Chief of Police William Voilmer
went direct to the vicinity where the
assassin was located. and found the
Italian who was trying to raise a sum
of money to aid D'Onofrio. in all
probability this is one reason why the
murderer consented to give himself up.
Rather than he arrested in trying to
flee the country. D‘Onoi‘rio concluded
that it would be much wiser to walk to
South Norwalk and yield himself to
justice.

Ever since last Monday night. when
Barry was shot down in apparent cold
blood. D’Onofrio has been roaming be-
tween the South Norwalk reservoir
Wilton and Ridgefleld. This is the
section of the: country that the officers
did not scour thoroughly. They did not
think that. he had gone in that direc»
tion. for nobody Trad come forward to
give the information that he had been
seen. while on the other hand. several
who claimed to have-veeen him in other
parts of the country. ‘kept the police
searching in the wrong direction. At
one time the towns of Norwalk. West-
port and Danica. churned thaman. 00l-
cere were in each place. The woods
were searched. barns were. ransacked
and every nook and corner Vwhere a man
would be supposed to hide was gone
over. Not in one instance did the
murderer seekers run across a man
who in any way resembled D'Onofrio.

Men who were personally acquainted
with him. said they saw him in certain
places. The police would at once insti-
tute a search. but when thtI clue they
received was fer-retell out. they would
be, just us filr from finding the mar.
derer us ever. it wan very discoura g»
ing work. and from Monday night up
to last night. (hief Volimer and his
men hardly got slit hours sleep each
They were all nearly worn out. and
were not sorry when they saw Captain
George W. Gladstone marching the
murderer to the police station. it is to
him the honors of capturing the man is
to be credited. if capture it was.

After getting tired of being hunted
like some wild animal. D’Onofrlo left
the woods in South Wilton about 5:30
o‘clock. He went out on the railroad
tracks and started towards. Wilton. He
only went a few hundred feet. when he
met a man. who was presumably a ho-
bo. D‘Onofrio asked the stranger if he
had heard anything of the man who
had been shot. He was told that Barry
was dead. “Dead." said he. in surprise.
Hardly able to keen back the tears
from his eyes. he suddenly made up his
mind that he would be a fugitive from
justice. no longer. Without saying a
word. he turned upon his heel and
started down the tracks towards South
Norwaik. He walked the entire dis-
tance. arriving in South Norwalk at
6:30 o’clock.

Never faltering he entered the heart
of the city and started down South
Main street. As he went under the
Washington street bridge. a small boy
noticed him. and full of heroic ideas
over what he had heard and read about
the murderer. he thought that this

. might be the man. Quickly resolving
‘ what to do. he hastened across the
etreet to the front of the Mnhackemo

The Decorations of a Unique Charac»
fer, and Very Effective in Their
Detail of Arrangement—
Gueste in Attendance.

 

The Hullowe’en phantom party last
night. in Lockwood's Hull. proved to
be one of the bigrzcst aoclal successes
so for this season. The attendance
was good and beside being such a de-
lightful social affair. the attendance
warrants the statement that the Nor
walk Golf Club. for whose benefit the
party was glv.eu will realize quite a
neat sum.

Music for dancing was furnished by
the Jerome May Banjo Club. of Bridge
port. who contributed their part to the
evening's enjoyment in their usual
fine utyle. There was no regular order
of dances and the program was given
as desired.

The hall \va: t'istilv decorated with
ripe grain and sheaves of straw,

The chief decorations were on the
stone. where the musuc‘luns were sent-
ed bchind stocks of etruw. corn. wheat
and other grains. Around the edges
of the stage was a row of luck lanterns
made from hollowed out pumpkins and
on the walls Wt'l’t‘ rlaiutilv arranged
festoons of grain. The electric lights
were covered With paper in order that
they might give a mellow light. The
effect of the decorations was excellent
and the work does credit to the mem
bers of the club. who went to the hall.
yesterday morning and arranged them

Dancing began at 9 o‘clock and it
was arranged that the masks should
he removed at if o'clork. but because
of the excessive heat in the hell it was
necessary to remove them at 10.

The meek costumes conaisted of
white pillow cases over the head and
white sheets twined around the body.
fled ribbons were worn as decorations.

About ll oclock a quarter oi an
hour intermission was taken during
which sandwiches. ice cream cake and
cocoa were served the guests of the
evening. from a booth in the corner of
the ball by the dressing room opposite
the entrance. There were also can
dies of different kinds and chestnuts
in plenty at the booth.

The party broke up about 12:30 and
many exclumations were heard on all
sides to the effect that it was the pleas-
anteat social function in many a night.

tyreat credit for the success of the
party is due Mrs. Reed 6. Haviland

the committee which had charge of

A IllSBRIBE ill THE TOWN

Suggests that Temporary Repairs be

Spring the Work of Macadam-

'l‘lw eelcclnicn are in receipt of the
following lcttcr from liigllwuy Com~
miseloncr James H. Macrlonuld regard
ing Armorv iiill:

Hartford, Oct.
llonrd of Selectmen.

Norwalk. Conn:

lcnllemcn: it seems to me that
Armory iiiil is destined to bcfuntil illi-
ully completed. always a lively bone
of contention. The. discussions that
have bccn had. the meetings that have
been held. and the controversies that
lmvc arisen from the text “Armory
Hill.“ are past numbering. l have
howcvcr a fond bone that ultimately
that even Armory ilill will be removed
from making any future trouble to the
minds of all those who have bad to
do with it for all time. Lot on all hope
that this end may be accomplished in
the hour or far future.

1 am fully mindful of the necessity
of buying a good road smooth. firm and
convenient for travel at all seasons of
the your in every town and in every
place where a good road can be laid.

i am deeply solicitous to have such
a condition prevail where any road in
to be used to carry the unfortunate
over it who have met with on accident.
and i would be the last one to refuse
to assist in uuv war the accomplish-
ment of such an object. l am still of
the opinion. however. as expressed in
my last letter. that it is the duty of
every town official to iii-islet in road rc-
formation with as much economv as
nogslblc, and having that mind in ref
Ward to thc obligations of the town of.
iiciale I can not be unmindful of my
own duty as“ iiighwav Commissioner
of the State of Connecticut, If the hon.
jiital authorities have stopped unlnv
that road it is a shame and a disgrace
not only to the city authoritloo. but
Wanamaker-go of town
affairs, when the reason asserted for
their action in the unsafe. dangerous
and rough condition of the road.

if ever a road should be smooth and
unit it is a road over which people who
are in i‘ccble health have to be carried
‘JI‘ those who have met with an accr
dent hnvc to use.

i would suggest that the town or
city authorities put on a few loads of
trove-l so as to make the maxi passableN
for the winter. and in the spring time
at the curlicet possible moment we. can
proceed to permanently macadamize
the road. I do not take this position
to bc dictatorial or dogmatic: my only
interest and purpose in remaining firm
in my original decision is that we
may not pay an cxorbtant price for the
improvement of the section in ques-
tion.

While, the road is a town possckslon
and will always remain ouch under the
urcscut condition of affairs. in the ho
provcment of said section the state
contributes the larger portiOn of the
expense. and being custodian of state
funds for highway improvement I
would not feel like cstabllshinit a pro.
cedcnt that would nugget-rt that i coun»
tonnnco the. price submitted for doing
the work for the reason that if i accept
the price of seventy-five cents I"
square yard for this contract. it makes
a standard from which we shall have
to continue in future work.

The state of Connecticut is willing
at all times to assist in every reason
able wav that we can to a betterment
of the highways of the state through
the means of state assistance. but It
is always conditional with the work
being properly done, and at fair prices:
another reason which perhaps does not
appeal at first glance to your Board of
Selectmen. as to why we uhould not do
the work thin fall outside of the ob-
iections named. In the fact that fall
built roads never give Miiefactwn. and
are aiwcys the objects of great care
and a large bill of expense in keeping
them in a proper state of repair to ac
commodate travel. In every instance
this fall. except here it was unavold.
able. 1 have with old my approval of
beginning macadom work and have
only up to the present time let out
eight tbntracts, some of which were
for work other than macedem. prefor-
ring to wait until next spring before
taking no mncodem work generally.

i would suggest that. a temporary
treatment be given the road for the
bolence‘of the fall and then we will
let out all of the work which will ox-
boult the entire appropriation at one
and the some time. for i believe that
we shall more better price: and bet-
ter work thereby.

Very respectfully yours.

Committee of Four ppolnted to Con-
fer with The 8 and District
Members of the Party at
Tonight’s Caucus.

 

The [)eruooraiic convention of the
First and Third Voting Districts met
for the purpose of nominating a candi-
date for the position of delegate to the
Constitutional ConVcntion was held
last night n the Norwalk Town Court
room There were nighteen delegates
or their representatives in attendance
and an everything had been pro arrang
«L “mulls “abomination won of but
short din-won late than ten minutes
being «rammed

The party leaders have planned that a
committee of four from these two dis
trlcts be chosen to meet a similar com-
mittce of three members of the Second
or South Norwalk District, and for the
combined committees to choose the
candidate to represent the party.

The ('illilvcntion was called to orilcr
by affix-Selectman Frank H. Merrill.
who at once unfoldwl the plans as giv-
on above. He stated that each party
was to nominate only one candidate.
the present convention would be on
abltl to nominate the Democratic can-
didate for the rcufon that the South
Norvv alk district would have to be ink
on into consideration .vlf‘. Merrill said
that the down town Democrats had al-
ready agreed to stand by the choice of
the Norwalit convention. .lohn .l.
Walsh was chosen chairman of the
convention and then business was pro-
ceeded to.

Mayor Charles L. Glover stated that

he had heard what Mr. Merrill had
said and wanted to know if the course
given by Mr. Merrill was necessary
and asked if it was not usual for the
convention to make nominations. He
thought as South Norwalk did not gen-
erally fall in the plans of her brethern
she might not in this case. The chair-
man replied to Mr. Glover that the
present was an unusual election in
that generally each party had more
than one candidate in the field, while
in toe present each party in the town
is to have a candidate apiece.
- Assessor Jame: Toner proposed that
Mr, Glover be chosen a. member of the
committee but the. chairman consider
cd this not in order as no motion had
yet been made to appoint such a com
mitten.

Attorney John Keogh then moved
that a committee of four be appointed
to confer with the oouth Norwulk com
mittee and that it be instructed to err
douse Hon. Asa B. Wodward as the
Democratic candidate. This was pose
and Mr. Toner again presented
Mr. Glover for a member of the com-
mittee. James Story nominated Clar-
ence F Osborn, Attorney Keogh Attor-
ney J. 3. Welsh and E. F. Duffy Dr. T.
F. Clune. an other members of the com-
mittee. The candidates for position on
the committee were unanimously
elected by noel-mutton.

Upon motion of August Billingsteln.
the convention ujourned.

The members of the committee will
80 to Booth Nervous to confer with
the committee appointed by the South
Norwnlt Democrat: at their convene
than this evening. The matter will
probably be settled directly after the
convention Idhume.

WASHINGTON. November i—JI‘he
report of General John F. Weston, com-
misaary general of subsistence. shows

that the total expenditures for the sub-.

slatence of the army during the fiscal
year were $15,022,228. The receipts
from the sales of subsistence stores
during the name period were 83,290,234.
An interesting feature of the report is
a statement from Colonel Woodruif.
chicf commiasary of the army in the
Philippines. in which he says:

During the first three months of the
period Mir/cred by this report. stores
herr- hud. fur var-lone entries. become.
greatly reduced. but owing to the grand
i‘oi-epoiii-rc tirade by the commieaary gen-
eral to every call from this office and
the energetic action of the purchasing
commlesarlcs in San Francisco and
New York, this was speedily corrected,
and this division was soon supplied as
no other army of its eizc has ever been
supplied In the world's history.

During the period covered by this re-
port the command to be supplied ex—
tended from the great wall of China on
the north to the island of Borneo on the
south. and the island of (loam on the
cast. There were 480 stations in this
archipelago. bt‘h'ldes the, trmpa in China
and the prisoners in Guam.

In addition to the 08,000 troops and
3,000 officers in this division. the sub-
sistence department supplied the deli-
cat-ice for the nick. rations for 4.000
prisoners of war. 1.800 marines. many
of the stores for the navy, rations for
1,000 civilian employees. and sales
stores for the army. navy and marine
officers. Philippine commission and at-
taches. and Americana employed by the
army and by the government in its
treasury. post office. interior and edu-
cational departments metropolitan po~
lice native police and scouts. tranc-
porte. etc. in other words nearly 100
000 persons occupying 9. country al-
most destitute of meat and vegetables
and other food supplies suitable for
Americans were supplied largely from
a single base. I ”.000 miles distant

After the stores reached Manila they

railroad. by cascos and burritos poled up
narrow rivers. by wagon and carabao
cartn along nlmrst bottomless made. by
bark mules and malice over mountain
trails. often through a hostile country
and some of the poets supplied were
more distant. in point of time from
Manila than is the capital of our coun-
try.

Colonel Woodruff says that during
the period covered try the report. 35.000
men have been returned to the United
States and about 18.000 hill/e arrived in
the Philippines. and that not. a single
serious complaint has been received
concerning the food supply. There has
been some deterioration of stores. due
to poor storage and climatic condi'
lions. (‘oloncl Woodruff refers to the
charges against the subsistence depart-
meat. and tak'm occasion to say that
such charges were greatly exaggerated
and he reviews what has already been
published concerning the losses by dia-
honest officers and commissary oer—
geants. together with the trials and
conviction of those concerned. fie de-
nies any illegal purchases of cham-
pagne. and says the purchases that
were made were necessarily for sick
and debilitated troops, 82 cents a pint
being paid for it.

General Weston'u report deals quite
extensively with the Chinese campaign
and quotes from officers who were in
that expedition to show that the troops
were wall supplied.

lent exhibition of Messrs. Walter Clou-
nan and Thomas McGarry. who re-
~elvcd great applause for their char-
icter sketches. ballads, and cakewalk
parody.

The full troupe of minstrels, twenty
voices. and full orchestra. will again
appear tomorrow evening, and give
another of their splendid exhibitions
of vocal and humorous art. that. gave
«rich great pleasure to the audience on
Wednesday evening. The "Unique"
\llnstrels have leaped at once to great
popularity. and won the favor of all
who heard them at the Fair.

The special feature of this evening‘s
entertainment. and one looked forward
to with great plcnsurc by the patrons
of the Fair. is thc singing by Mr. Har-
ry Pepper. assistml by the Male Quac
tcttc. consisting of Messrs. Whittaker.
Force. Wehlc and Main. Mr. Pepper
will sing by request the beautiful bal-'
‘ad. “Daddy.” and other selections. and
his immense popularity as a vocalist.
his genial sympathy with every good
cause, are all sufficient to pack the
Red Men's Hall tonight. if is: hinted
by knowing ones that Mr. Pepper's
friends will not allow McKinlcy's
splendid portrait to adorn any other
drawing room in The Norwalke. but
the one on West avenue. where the
popular artist dispenses so cordially
and generously his kindly hospitality.

The vote last eve-nine: for the most
public spirited man of The Norwalka.
is as follows:
Harry Pepper.
Richard Golden.

satisfied air of the canvassing com-
mittee that a large vote for the candi-

of which may not be recorded publicly
before Saturday or even Monday even-
ing. interest In such popular tourneye
is intensified by the concealment of

part of the representative workers un-
til the close of the contest. The last
ballot. at 11:00 o'clock. on Monday

lie Farrell. 24; Edgeworth Williams.
