street for 81.100; how he was under-
bId, and finally came down to 8800.
There Is yet an assessment to be col-
lected from that. Itreet and Mr. Hoyt
has not been paid because the assess-
ment has not been collected. Mr.

DANBURY, Oct. 10.——Tlte biggest

lieve tltat there were at least 100 men
in the house when they reached there.
Many of the people leaped from a roof
in the rear of the building to the yard
back of an Italian fruit store adjoin-
ing. a distance of at least twenty-five
feet. and some of them must have been
badly shaken up and bruised even it
they escaped without broken limbs.
Scores of men plunged down the. back
stairs in the darkness and rain and
.crambled across a ladder that had
been placed across Still River. which
rttns back of the building. This lad-
der was covered with planks and in the
darkness and rush to get away many
of the men fell into the river. which
was swollen from the rain. and were
helped out by their comrades who were
more successful In reaching the shore.

The men were released on cash bonds
of $15 each. Only sixteen of them ap-
peared in court. yesterday. They
pleaded not guilty. Only two of the
lot were local men and they were walt-
ers. They were fined $10 and costs

barges“ Sank Off Norwalk
but Will be Raised

Baxter Wrecking Contpany to Save
Two Barges of Coal Which Went
Down Yesterday in the Storm.

 

 

The two barges. which sank off Nor-
walk yesterday, will probably be raised
as it is believed that the cargoes and
boats can be saved unless the present
severe weather continues, attd should
break the vessels In pieces.

The vessels sank off this coast yes-
“terduy. the (I. W. Koles going down be-

posite Colleudar's l’uint. Captain

boats lit the tow ported and the barge
appeared to be drifting away. lumped
overboard. and swam for the tug liob»
crt Robertson, In command of Cap»
rain John Plant. Ilc succeeded In
reaching It safely, and was ltattled on
board, as Captain l'luut had brought
the vessel to anchor as soon as he saw
that the. barge had broken away. The
lilile dog was picked up some time lat.
er. having made a brave fight for his
life for about an hour. The barge was
loaded with 363 tons of chestnut coal
consigned to Wilson 0‘: Ilowe, of Bridge
port. The barge was owned by the
Hughes Transportation Company, of
New York.

The other barge. II. II. Doberty. went
down between Rotou Point and the
Greens Reef light. It was in tow of
the tug E. C. Luckenback. of the dilute»;
McWilliams Towing Company. and was
loaded with 146 tons of coal for Frank
Miller if: Company. of Bridgeport. Tits
sinking of the craftwas caused by the
heavy seas breaking over the vessel.
and completely swampinrz her. Thu.
captain and his family had barely time
to get on one of the other four barges
In the tow before his vessel went down.
The town were anchored inside of
Smith‘s Islands, and the tugs afterward
put In to Wilson's Point. where mes-
sages were sent to the owners In New
York city.

The Baxter Wrecking Company was
also notified. and one of the represen-
tatives. David Baxter. arrived at Wil-
son Point, last night. for the purpose
of making an estimate on raising the
vessels and cargoes. It Is believed
that this can be done so that the. own-
ers can realize a little profit on the
cargoes. There was no insurancd ot.
either one. .

Ends liis life by Shooting
Himself in a Hotel in New
York

Death by his own hand Itt a plalttly
furnished ltotcl room marked the end of
the career of Daniel Kellogg Baker.
three years ago rated among the mil-
llonairos of New York. and whose wed-
ding in an orchid-scented Fifth avenue,
New York. chttrclt, crowded with will-
known New York society folk, was one
of the events of the year. Deceased
was a brother of the late Taintarlge
New York. church, crowded with well-
kttown here.

Mr. liakcr shot himself in a room in
the Everett House some time between
daybreak and “:30 Thursday morn-
ing.

Ruined by Stool Stocks.

The reasons which prompted the not
had not been positively ascertained at
a late hour last night. Tltai Mr. Bak-
er'sentlrc fortune had been swept away
by speculation in steel stocks was. how.
ever. regarded by his friends as cause
sufficient for his suicide. Mr. Baker
was seventy-three years of age. He
was married for the, first time on Octo-
ber 11, 1000, His bride was Catherine
Ir‘arr Campbell. the charntlng and
youthful daughter of William Camp~
bell, of No. 36 West Ninety-first street,
New York.

At the tinte of his marriage Mr. Bak-
er was the general collection agent of
the National Wall Paper Company. lie.
was not only rich, but possessed splen-
did sot'liil connections. and was well

' known throughout the country.

Found Dead on Bed.

Broken In fortune and spirit. unsuc
cessful In the arduous labor of policllv
ing insurance. and with his wealth
gone beyond recall. he walked Into the
Everett llottsc Wednesday night with a
hand satchel neatly packed and was as-
signed to a room. He. was well known
In the hotel where he had formerly llt~
ed. He retired early. and nothing
more was seen of ltint alive.

in the morning a chambermald noti-
fled the hotel manager that she was not
able to get into the room. and his door
was forced. lie was found lying up-
on the bed, having removed only his
coat. vest and necktie.

The man about to die had evidently
spent the night in reflection. He had
been dead, according to the coroner.
not more titan five hours. On a table
were a short note to the coroner and
another to Lucien S. Bayllss.

Had Two of Wife's Letters.

There. were also two letters with an-
broken seals, addressed to his wife.
bearing Philadelphia postmarks.
These. it was said. he had taken front
the clerk at the St. James Hotel. No.
109 West Forty-fifty street. where he
had been living for two years prior to
his death.

Dr. George V. Poster. of 109 Easr.
Eighteenth street. was called by the au-
thorities of the hotel, but his attend-
ance was unnecessary.

Mr. L. S, Bayllss. to whom one of the
notes left by the dead man was address-
cd. arrived at the hotel within a short
time after the suicide was discovered.
Mr. Bayliss Is a lawyer. of No. .0 Wil-
llam street, and was the best man at
Mr. Baker's wedding.

Mr. Bayllss evidently desired to keep
secret so far as possible many of the
details connected with the affair and it
was not. until later that the dead man
was identified as the man who was
rated three years ago as a millionaire.

Mr. Bayllss denied last night that
Mr. Baker had been speculating in
steel.

“Mr. Baker had no money with which
to speculate when he. died," said Mr.
Bayliss. “He had lost all the money
and was a broken mom"

burglars At Work

MIII Edith Sanford Bollovcc Comono
Hold Door of Apartments When
She Tried to Got In.

 

it Is now believed by the police that
the burglars who ransacked the apart-
ments of John Cromwoll, itt East Nor-
walk. were In the rooms when Miss
Sanford returned there in the after-
Mlsa Sanford
states that when she went there she
tried the door to her room and found
that she could not open it, and she now
recalls that It felt as if someone was
holding it on the Inside She tried for
two or three minutes to get It open, but
without success. She went away again
then and returning a. few moments lat~
er found that the door opened easily.
it is believed that while she was there.
one of the burglars was holding the
door while the other one was packing
tip the goods preparatory to getting
mtt. She entered and stayed In the
back part of the apartment, not going
to her own room for some time. The
burglars probably went out at the front
as she. entered the rear of the apart-
ments. A bundle of her clothing had
been folded up all ready to take away.
and it is evident from that that they
were disturbed while at work.

Chief of Police Vollmer stated this
morning that no clue had yet been ob-
tained to the identity of the burglars,
but that there were hopes hat some of
the gods may be. recovered.
