Several matters of considerable im-

South Norwaik Board of Councilmen.
at their meeting, last evening, chief of
which was the condition of Monroe
street. as left by the ”trolley company
at the present time. Last night the
street was blocked, and it was brought
out at the Council meeting in case of a
fire the condition of‘ affairs in this
thoroughfare might prove disastrous.
After a good deal of discussion it was
unanimously voted to have the Street
Commissioners keep a passageway un-
der the Monroe street and Washington
street bridges at all times,

The walk in front of the. library is in
bad condition, and Mayor Cavanagh
thought it ought to be attended to
promptly. No action was taken, but
it is probable that the Street Com-
missioners will have the spot repaired
and put in proper shape shortly.

Councilman John E. Paul. the
"standby of the city fathers." was the
only absentee when Mayor Cavanagh
called 'the meeting to order at 8:15
o'clock, having been compelled to go
home after going to the Council rooms,
on account of illness. The reading of
the minutes of the last four meetings
was dispensed with. and Clerk Taylor
immediately proceeded to the bills, of
which there was a geodeslzcd batch.
These were ordered approved, and the
semi-annual report of Chief of Police
Voilmer was next in order. This was
promptly accepted.

The report stated that at present the
Police Department consisted of twelve

City of Norwaik Council Considers
Stuart Avenue Matters—William
Mitchell Elected Assessor.

The Norwalk City Council held its
first meeting of the month last night,
at the Council Chamber, in Wall sir-.eet
and for the first session in three weeks
it was a brief one.

William Mitchell was elected to the
office of assessor to succeed Goold S.
Hoyt. whose term expires this year. it
was also voted to instruct the clerk to
publish the usual notices in regard to
the annual city meeting or election,
which will be held on the first Monday
in October, four weeks hence.

The improvements proposed for
Stuart avenue were discussed, and it
seemed to be the opinion that they
should be started.

The meeting was called to order by
Mayor Glover, with Councilmen Clov-
er, Riordan Weed. Reynolds and Lock-
wood in their chairs.

The minutes of the last meeting were
read and approved, and the bills of
the seVeral public departments were
ordered paid, as follows: Highway,
$264. 02; Police, 3:. ’4l. 50; Library
S174. 89; Fire, 8226. 77; Administrative,
$65. 02; Lights, 3600. 30; Sewer 82. 25;
total.11,574.’lb.

Councilman Lockwood stated that
Henry M. Stanton wished to connect
with the private sewer running
through the property of a relative ad-
joining. Mr Stanton wanted to know
if he could make the connection by
paying the fee of 85. The point was

 

he desired to make another connection

should be small it was liable to clog
up easily. Councilman Lockwood was
of the opinion that that would make
no difference to the city, as the city
would not have to remedy the matter.
No action was taken. but Mr. Stanton
will probably be able to get the nec-
essary permit.

The matter of the proposed improve—
ments to Stuart avenue came up. and
was discussed at length. Councilman
Glover thought that something should
be done immediately. it was brought
out that the city engineer had been so
busy lately that he could not strike a
grade. Councilman Riordan said that
if the work of repairing the avenue is
to be done. the improvements should
be made before cold weather sets in.
The point of whether there is not now
a grade was raised. it is likely that
the overhauling of the roadbod will
soon begin.

Councilman Glover stated that he
had borrowed the sum of $5,000 for
the water improvements since the last
meeting.

it was voted that the clerk publish
the usual notiie in regard to the an-
nual city meeting.

The matter of appointing an assessor
to succeed Goold S. Hoyt. and to serve
a term of three years, was the next

of making the autopsy on the remains
of Mr. Morehouso and stated that there
was no sign of disease in the internal
oigans, heart. kidneys, etc. being in
perfectly healthy condition as far as
he could ascertain. Neither was
there any evidence that an electrical
shock had caused death. He could
not positively state what had caused
Mr. Morehouse'a death, as the autopsy
report was negative. Dr. R. L. Hig-
gins was present at the scene of the
accident when Dr. Huntington first
viewed the body, and Dr. Jean Dumor-
tier assisted in the autopsy and con-
curred with Dr. Huntington in so far
as the observations made in the outer.
sy were concerned. although at that
time no decision was made as to the
cause of death. The well developed
and normal condition of Mr. More
house's heart tended to dispute theory
that Mr. Morehouse died of heari
failure and still there was no evidence.

, A Hartford Humane Sooiety agent
went to Greenwich yesterday to in-
vestigate the case of George Edge.a
man whose busincs it has been to buy
up diseased or aged horses in Port
Chester. N Y., and other towns just
over the bound my line. and take them
to the farm which he has hired in
Greenwich, there to skin them and
obtain the hides and bones or to
devote them to whatever purpose be
deemed profitable. Edge was away
when the agent arrived at the farm
yesterday, but the agent found a horse
there, tied to a tree. which had died in
that position, of the glanders. Other
horses were found about the farm and
in the stables. suffering from various
diseases and the wretched animals
which were found at work were put in
i the stable by the agent.

Attention was called to the case by
the fact that the owners of a large
stock farm which adjoins Edge's place
notified the state of affairs and became
exercised lest disease should be com-
municated to their own animals. They
notified the local. agent of the Humane
Society, who laid the case before the
board of health. Edge has been in
Greenwich forum or three years and
is reputed to be a hard-hearted ne'er-
do-well. Unless he speedily ‘remediu
the state of affairs on his farm he will
be prosecuted.

of doubt upon the matter unless the
lots are sold shortim The offer is from
a New Jersey town and the money
necessary has already been raised. if
the people of South NorwaIk want to
ensure having this concern locate here
they should hasten to purchase the
lots and raise the necessary money
for that purpose

as possible here. hey desire to have
their factory built and ready for or-

More Sailors
Bodies Found

Willie l. Newton Probably
floated Ashore at Port
Jeffersonzfivuflthorliodios
at St. James. long Island

The crew of the schooner Willie L.
Newton, which sunk off Norwallt
three weeks ago. and also the crew of
the schooner Lillie 0. Welles, which
foundered off Bridgeport a day later.
have been accounted for in the find-
ing of eleven bodies on the Long is-
land shore.

Harrie Morehouse, of the firm of
Penn & Morehouse, in Bridgeport. re-
turned to his East Norwalk residence,
last night, after a stay of several days
at his summer cottage at Port Jeffer-
son, Long island. Mr. Morehouse was
Interviewed by a Sentinel reporter.
and was informed that since last Fri-
day six bodies had been washed ashore
at Port Jefferson, and five at St.
James. One of the men found at Port
Jefferson had a large lump on one
knee, and appeared to have been de-
formed in some way. Mr Morehouse
thought this might prove a means of
identifying him. All the bodies were
in a had state of decomposition, and
several had been eaten by fishes, and
were buried as quickly as possdbie.

The last body found was that of a
man of good build, but the features
were unrecognizable. They were dis-
covered Labor Day lying on the beach
at Port Jeflcrson by a woman and her
son. who were walking by. As soon as
they recovered from the shock they
went to the cottage settlement, and
notified Mr Morehouse; also Samuel
Swan Julius Skldmore T. F. Vase, and
C M. Gardinier. of Bridgepoit. The
proper authorities were later notified.

it would appear as though the six
bodies which were found at Port Jef-
ferson were those of the crew of the
Newton, as they were expected to float
sometime last week,‘ and the currents
probably carried them to the Long is-
land shore. The finding of the bodies

Stolen Automohio .
Recovered in Wosiport

Machine Was Taken by Two Mon in
Greenwich. Sunday, and Wes In
Nor-walk During the Afternoon.

 

 

A big twenty horse power Toledo
gasoline automobile, manufactured by

, the international Motor Car Company.

at Toledo, Ohio, was stolen in Green-
wich, Sunday, and was recovered in
Westport, yesterday afternoon. The
machine was taken by two men whose
identity is known by the owner, C. H.
Gillette, of New York City. who intends
to prosecute them to the full extent
of the law for the offence. The ma-
chine was in Norwalk Sunday emer-
noon and the two men now being
sought were operating it. Before that
they had been seen in Stamford.

Upon their arrival in Norwalk the
operators made a brief stop at the
Hotel Norwalk and started out i ir the
eastward. They stated that they had
had two hours sleep the night before,
and it was supposed that they were
merely taking the big car to some
point to the eastward for an owner. it
was thought somewhat peculiar, how-
ever, that they were not dressed in au-
tomobillsts‘ garb.

One of the men was apparently
about twenty-five years of age. was
smoothly chaven and wore a rain coat.
His companion was apparently be-
tween thirty-iive and forty years of age
and had a mustache: When they drovo
away, the young appearing man was at
the wheel.

The car was noticed particularly be-
cause of its size, there being very few
cars larger or even as large. it was of
the Tonneau variety and painted a
dark red.

From all accounts the pair had a
glorious time and finally abandoned it
near a farm house in Westport. The
big car was then all out of order. Mr.
Gillette had been looking for the ma-
chine since Sunday, and finally learn-
ed that it wan somewhere in Connec-
ticut. He came up from New York
yesterdav. and was accompAni'ad by
George B. Adams and two machinists
and automobile operators. Frank Far-
riner. of New York and Frank Bonshy.
of Toledo, where the car was made. it
took the mechanics three hours to put
the car in working order again. The
steering gear was deranged and other
parts of the working machinery were
out of order.

Mr. Gillette took out a warrant for
the arrest of the guilty men. but does
not expect that they will be found
within many miles of Westpnrt. The
men were traced with the car as far
as Milford and they evidently and
started to return and were prevented
by their mishap, This gives riae to
the belief that the guilty parties did
not intend to get rid of the machine.
but simply were. out for a good time.
The Bridgeport police were notified.

After repairs were made Messrs
Gillette and the machinists came to
Norwalk in the car and bad supper last
evening at the Hotel Norwaik. Messrs.
Adams and Gillette returned to New
York on the 7:55 train. while the. ma-
chinists started for New York with the
car.
