The Connecticut Railway and Light-

at work, yesterday, replacing the ties

Suprsmo Court of Errors Decision,
Handed Down Yesterday. Favors
E. H. Bush, of South Norwalk.

 

At a conclusion of the iudges of
the supreme court of errors at New
Haven yesterday twentyono opinions
wore flied with the reporter. Five
cases from Hartford county were am-
ong the number. being the Berlin iron
Bridge Company against the American
Bridge Company C. S, Mersfok. trus
tee against the Hartford & West Hart-
ford Horse Railway Company Clara
A. Loomis against Wesley Hotlister
W. S. Wells and others against the
Hartford Manila Company and Nathan
Shmllovits against Nathan Bares. The
one of Norwalk interest follows: r

"Temple against Bush, action for
money had and received to the plain-
tiff's use; heard by Judge Curtis and a
jury In the Fairfteld county court of
common pleas. ‘When the plaintiff’s
evidence was all In the defendant mov-
ed for a llonfillll, which was granted.
and motion bseuueiitiy made to set
aside the non- -sult was denied. No
error. Opinion by Judge Baldwin."

This was an action brought by Char-
lotte Temple against Edwin H. Bush
for money which she claimed he had re-
ceived for her In the settlement of the
South Norwalk lint Co., with Its credl
tors after the fire which destroyed the
factory in 1898.

Mr, Bush denied that he ever receiv—
ed any money for her. and when the
{rise was tried before Judge Curtis and
a jury in Bridgeport she was unable
to produce any evrdence tending to
show that Mr, Bush had received any
money for her.

The Judge took the case away from
the jury and granted a non-suit, render-
ing judgment In favor of Mr. Bush to
recover his costs. From this judg-
ment Miss Temple appealed to the su-
preme court of errors with the result
as stated above. ,

Judge Light appeared for Mr, Bush
and Attorney Walsh for Miss Temple.

COMBINED SUNDAY SCHOOLS.

Had a Most Successful Excursion to
Lecust Grove, L. I.. Yesterday.

The combined picnic of the Norwalk
Methodist and Baptist Churches with
the East Avenue Methodist Church
Sunday School, of East Norwalk. was
a grand success. There were over a
thousand people present and all had
a fine time. The steamer John Syl-
vester took the party to Locust Grove,
L. l.. where the day was pleasantly
spent until about 4 o'clock when the
return trip was made. One of the
features 'of the occasion was a game
of baseball which was between the
East Norwalk people and the South
Norwaik people. These ball games
are an annual occurrence and a great
deal of interest is taken In them. For
three years the East Norwalk aggrega-
tion have kept the prize ball and they
still hold it. The score at the close
of the game was 9 to ii. in favor of the
lflflst Norwalkers.

Lyst and Arnold were the battery for
the South Norwalk team during the
first three Innings, then King and Ar-
nold succeeded them. The game was
only five innings long and In the fifth
the score was tied. There were two
outs and Charles Moffatt was at the
‘bat. Two strikes were called on him,
and It looked as if the game were to
end In a tie. Moffatt swung at a ball
and planted a home run. which won
the game amid wild cheers of enthu-
siasm. It will be hard to find another
Sunday School picnic wnrcn can com-
bine the pleasures found in the one
held yesterday. There-was nothing
:0 mar the occasion and everyone on-
Joycd the day from the time the boat
left the dock until the lines were cast
for the return landing. The music by
the Y. M. C. A. Orchestra served in a
great measure to liven up the affair.
and they were roundly applauded. after
each number. The refreshments were

whole affair that apparently could have
been improved upon.

BASEBALL IN THE WATER.
Norwslk Young Men Had a Lively

Game and Lots of Fun at Comps.

There was a number of young men
from Norwalk. at Compo Beach, the
other evening, and they amused them-
selves and also those on shore, with
a game. which to many is new. that of
water: ball. These young fellows
numbered enough to form two teams,
which they named the Lobsters and the
Crabs.

Usually In a game of ball the most
important players are the catchers and
the pitchers, but not so with “water
ball," the first baseman taking the
lead. He stands out in the water ata
d rig, base, sometimes mode of a
life reserver. Generally the first base-
manna good swimmer. which to quite
necessary.

The game was a good example and
resulted in a victory for the lobsters.

Artists were heard

Rarely indeed has South Norwaik
had such a musical treat as was pro-
vided last evening at Thomas I. Buy-
mond's handsome residence, "Hillside."

This affair, which was of a select na-
ture the proceeds to be devoted to
the South Norwslk Public Library, had
been looked forward to with pleasure
by lovers of music in South Norwalk
and their expectations failed entirely
to come up to the reality. The artists
were enthusiastically received and
were compelled to respond to encores
after almost every number. The artists
were of high rank musically. They
were Edmund hinder, pianist: Alfred
Rollo tenor; Miss Mary Peddle, cou-
traito, and Mrs Rollo, accompanist.

The program rendered was as fol-
lows:

 

a. “Spinning Sung" ...... Mendelssohn
li. "Butterfly" .................. Grieg
Edmund Ender, Pianist.

."At rarting" ............... Rogers

“Sweet Blue-Eyed Maid' McDowell
Alfred Rollo, 'l‘enor.

The rendition of Mendelssohn's

on loose. It brought out his clear, true
vo co and showed Its merit to a degree.

Miss Mary Peddle's singing of “Em-
barques Vous" was more pleasing
than the first piece, as it gave a better
realization of the merits of her voice
The song had more vivacity and tested
her technique and expression which
came through the test satisfactorily

The selections from the song cycle
of Von Fieliu of “Ellland and limit-
garde" was new to South Norwalk
music lovers and proved a revelation.
Von Fielits‘s compositions, though lit-
tle known in this country. bid fair to
rival any of their character, and so far
the song cycle of Eliland is his best,
though he grows daily more famous.
The cycle deals with the thoughts and
longings of a beautiful nun called Er-
mlngarde, who falls In love with Eli-
land and who writes her story. It is
discovered by the other nuns and is
buried in a casket deep In the woods
to be discovered later after hundreds of
years

it is seldom that songs have such a
wonderful accompaniment as have the
parts of this song cycle. The music
tells the story almost as fully as the
words of the singer, so perfect is the
harmony between the two. This was
Mr. Rollo‘s triumph of the evening,

Mina Paddle pleased greatly in “The
Maeklntoah'a-Lsment.” which is sup-
posed‘to be written by a bride whose
newly wedded h aband Is killed on his
way to her horn y a fall from {A horse.
It is in the quaint style so readily reo-
ogniaed as belonging to the more an-
clent of the Scottish and lrlsh songs
but full of heart interest and pathos.
Rendered by Miss Paddle in her clear.
rich voice. which is pregnant with sym~
pathy, It left nothing to be desired. "0
Can Ye Sew Cushions" was another
quaint folk song which showed true
art.

When the program closed all were
sorry that It could not have lasted long.
er. Mr, Raymond invited those pm
eat to enjoy a social hour. Refreshing
fees were served and many took ad-
lvantage of the opportunity to meet the
artists.

FRESH NEW YORK YOUTH.

He was a very "fresh" youth of about

not boasted so loudly of thd fact. He

Caught in South Norwalit
by Detective Cronan last
Night __._

For a couple of days past. a young
man who claimed to he a newspaper
man and an Elk, has been about town.
apparently waiting for the arrival of
money from home to help him on his

way . He gave his name as Malcolm G.
Hughes. of New York, and by his
specious manner and nerve gained the
way to the pocketbooks of several
South Norwslk people. He went Into
several places and represented him-
self as being a newspaper man, He
said that hehad secured a temporary
position on The Hour, while one of
the employee was away on his vaca-
tion. He was to be the city editor of
The Sentinel on the completion of that
work. He expected a check from his
home at almost any minute. and sev-
eral kind hearted men went down In
their pockets to aid him in paying his
board. and kept him supplied with
enough liquor to make his life fairly
passable.

Yesterday afternoon Detective Cron-
In. or Bridgeport. came to South Nor-
walk. looking for a man. He and Cap-
tain of Police Pennington went the
rounds looking for the man. He was
found In a saloon, using the long dis-
tance telephone to Bridgeport. Detec-
tive Cronin identified the fellow and
he was placed under arrest.

Hughes was charged with forgery.
and it was learned that he had beaten
the Windsor Hotel In Bridgeport out of
ii week’s board. He passed a check
on C. N. De Quittevilie. the proprietor
of the Bridgeport hostelry, It was a
fraudulent check on the Bridgeport
Trust Company.

Hughes was taken to Bridgeport lm-
mediutely after his arrest, and will
be tried on charges of forgery.

Ho- is locked up at the contra. po-
lice station in Bridgeport. Hughes Is
a young man and is said to belong to a
prominent New York family. He
claims to be a newspaper: man. He
went to Bridgeport on the evening of
July 9 and registered at the Windsor
and was assigned to room'2l. On July
17, he presented to the day clerk of the
hotel a regularly drawn check of which
the following is a copy:

No. 301.

THE BRIDGEPORT TRUST CO.
Pay to the order of M. G, HUGHES.

Twenty-five Dollars.

$25.00.

 

W. A. REDDEN.

The day clerk deducted from this
check the amorrut of Hughes’ bill,‘and
gave him the balance in cash. Whén
the check was presented to the Bridge—
port Trust Company. for payment, as
it was In due course of business, it was
pronounced fraudulent. in the mean.
time Hughes. whom the hotel people
say was a book agent. left the house,
Manager do Quittville laid the case
before the police authorities and Detec-
tlve Cronan was put upon the case.
Inquiry last night revealed the inter
motion that another man is implicated
in the case. and his arrest is likely to
follow.

port Trust Company called his atten-
tion to this check it bore his Initials,

in the handwriting, and decided to in-
vestigate. Attorney Redden said he
has an account with the Bridgeport
Trust Company, but how Hughes found
it out he cannot imagine. When asked
lm he had any previous acquaintance
with Hughes, he said that that he met
him several days before having been
introduced to him by a third party.
Last week Hughes asked him. he says.
to cash a draft for him. but Lawyer
Reddsn concluded not to do so. He
says that Hughes' parents live in Ut-
ica. N. Y.. and are very well off. Last
week Hughes wired there for funds

The police received a telephone moa-
ssgo from New Rochelle. N. Y... at
midnight, stating that a brother of'
Hughes would arrive in Bridgeport,
this morning.

HAVE BEEN CAPIURED

Expected That Their Incarcsratlon
Will Stop Mysterious Shortages
of Ticket Agents.

 

An explanation of the shortages
which have occurred quite frequently
of late in the accounts of the ticket
agents in charge of several of the sta-
tions of the Consolidated road on the
line between New York and Boston. is
believed to have been ferreted out by
Deputy Sheriff Bitch. of Greenwich.

On Tuesday night of the current
week two than giving the names of Ar-
thur Martin and Frank Stand were ap-
prehended while engaged in entering
the railroad station at Greenwich. On
being brought before the town court
the prisoners were found guilty of bur-
glary and bound over to the Septem-
ber term of the superior court, the
criminal side of which sits in Bridge-
port.

At the conclusion of the hearing
Martin. who asserts that be Is but
twenty years of age. and Stand. a
hunchback of about fifty. were taken
to Bridgeport and are now confined
at the county jail awaiting the disposi-
tion of the cases in the higher tribu-
nal.

Sheriff Ritoh engaged the prisoners
in conversation after their arrest and
they divulged to him the method of
robbing the ticket agents In a man-
ner which would not permit of their
being able to discover the loss until
the expiration of several weeks time
and therefore be unable to account for
the difference In their returns.

That they are a clever pair Is appar
ent from the method adopted to car
ry on the nefarious work. In the first
place they have entered stations‘ by
means of picking locks and left no
trace whatever of the manner In
which admission was gained and this
of Itself was sunlcient to bathe the
ticket agents who were wholly unable
to comprehend why there should be
a shortage in their accounts.

Martin and Stand assert that they
did not expect to find much money in
the stations and generally took long
distance tickets. They were aware
of the fact that the day agents gener-
ally place a blue pencil check on the
top ticket of each pile at the close of
the day‘s business and if the ticket so
market] remained the bunch was
counted Intact.

The thieves would therefore remove
tickets from the center of the pile.
make use of the dating stamp and dis-
pose of their Ill-gotten plunder days
before the loss was even discovered.
The announcement of the arrest of
these offenders has been received with
gratification by the ticket agents all
along the line.
