East Norwallt People
lrying to find Out Who' Is
Doing lndisoliminate Shoot-

[wanes liolna Stru‘ok

East Norwalk people are complain-
ing of the fact. that bullets are being
tired which land indiscriminately In
East Norwalk, and it Is believed that
they come from somewhere on the
South Norwalk side of the river. Sev.
erai instances have been spoken of
lately where people have had narrow
escapes from being hit by bullets, and
the latest one was yesterday evening.

Mrs. Theresa Waldron, of ii Han-
ford Place. was sitting in he. house
when she heard a crash in the psntry.
which sounded as if there was some-
one in there rattling the pans and ket-
tles about. She hurried there and
.found on the floor a bullet, evidently
from a .44 of .48 calibre rifle. it had

, ploughed its way through the walls

of the house and entered the pantry,
where it struck one of the shelves up-
on which were a number of tin puns.
The rattling of these was what. attrac-
ted her attention. Further search

, showed the hole in the wall where the
bullet entered. A corresponding hole
in the roof of the next house showed
. that the bullet had ploughed its way
through a number of inches of wood
before it entered Mrs. W aldron' s house.
The bullet, notwithstanding the fact
that it had passed through c-onsidera
hie wood was not flattened as injured
in any way and it is believed to bed '
steel tipped bullet.

Several days ago while some child
ren who live in the neighborhood of
Hanford Place were playing in the.
yard. another bullet, similar to the one
found in Mrs. Waldron's pantry fell in
the show. This one was evidently
spent before it struck the ground.

At neither time was any report
heard, which leads to the belief that
the shooting must be some distance
away probably Mimi triver mote
where between the iron Works and tho
Norwaik Banach Works.

Efforts are being made, to ascertair
who is doing the MM and the res
idents of Hahfofii Place andt vicin
ity in East. Noiwaik are mild dxer
cised over the matter. if there is a
repetition of Is, the police will be no
titledwand. every effort will be made to
flnd out about the matter

MORE INDUSTRIES MAY COME.

 

Promoter Bennett Showing Property to
New York Manufacturers.

M. R. Bennett was busy snowing
New York business men about Nor-
walk. yesterday. Mr. Bennett will
make them propositions within a day
or two, and it is quite possible that
the negotiations will result in two
more industries for Norwalk.

The project being in such an early
state. Mr. Bennett does not care to
give the details just yet. ’

One of the gentlemen is desirous of
locating a typewriter factory, while
the other was a lace manufacturer. -

Several desirable sites were lucked
over. These men were ‘evidently well
impressed with the city. Should they
decided to locat here, it wduld mean
a large additlo to the industries of
the place.

Hearing in Reed Smoot 3
(Base domes Up Again—
Question of Plural Mor-
riagos After September

26. |890

WASHINGTON, March 3.——So great
has become the interest in the lows-
tlgatlon of protest against iteod Smodt
of Utah, retaining his seat in the Unit-
(d States Senate, that it was necessary
today to post a policeman at the door
of the room of the committee on priv-
ileges and elections, where the bear—
ings are progressing. All persons ex-
cept, those directly interested were
kept out the room, though outside
the door was impossible almost to
'lnalntuln a passageway through the
corridor of the capitol.

Just before the hearing was begun
today. Mr. SmOut received a telegram
front Provo, Utah, stating that his sis-
trr. Mrs. George S. .aylor, is dead as
the resultof an operation. He had had
no previous notification of her illness.
and exhibltwl plainly the effects of
thr‘ sudden shock.

When the committee was called to
order seven senators were present.
Chairman Burrows gave the ruling on
the questions asked of President Joe.
9le F. Smith: relating to the polyga-
lnoua cohabitation of George F. Tease
dale, a Mormon apostle, Objections to
such questioning had been made by
the defence. A no committee ruled that
testimony bearing upon plural mar-
riages of any members of the twelve
Apostles, of which Mr, Smoot is one, is
competent, so far as it relates to such
polygamous cohabitation since Septem-
ber 2d, 1890, the date of President
Woodruff‘s manifesto, withdrawing the
order of the church commanding plural
marriages.

Senator llcvcrldge stated that there
had been a misunderstanding as to
whethtr Mr. Smoot was being tried
on charges of polygamy and with how
Eng lllkl‘ll an oath incompatible with
his oath as a United States Senator.
Now, lll‘ said. it is apparent that those
charges are not pending in this inves-
ligation.

Stuator lillbols dissented from the
ilfllellltlll that there had been truth a
misunderstanding, and said the real
cimrgc is that. Mr, Smoot is a member
.-t a Mormon hierarchy which sub-
scribes to vows in cdntlict with the
".lWS of the country, and was bound to

upport such vows.

“For the first time in fifty years."
.slld Mr. Dubols, "rue relations of this
organization toward the United States
.re to be tried."

Senator Pettus made a protest
.1galnst the debate between members
if the committee and Chairman Bur-
cws directed Mr. Taylor to prooeed.

Questions were then directed to as~
certain Mr, Smith's knowledge of the
polygamoua marriages of Frank Can-

‘on, and whether Mr Smith had per-
armed the service uniting Mr Cannon
ind Lillian Hamlin.

Mr. Smith said he ..ud seen aerospa-
per representations saying that he had
done so, but he denied the truth of
the statements,

Then Mr. Taylor asked a number of
mentions which brought out a state-
ment from Mr. Smith regarding .his
-.wn position under thoilan's covering
polygamy. He acknowledged that he
‘lad violated them continuously since
he manifesto of 1890, and is ready
.‘tOW and always had been ready to
race the laws of the land.

Mr. Taylor asked: is cohabitation
with a plural wife contrary to the
nice of the church?”

Mr. Smith asked and received; per-
mission to make a statement and' then
answered the question in his own way.
He spoke with great feeling and di-
r,ectnesa just the reverse of his atti-
tude on the stand at yeaterday' s hear-
ing. saying: In regard to the status
of polygamy at the time of the mani-
meato, I want to say that after the
hearing before the Master of Chancery
I understood that we should abstain
from relations with our plural families.
and that rule was observed up to the
time the enabling act went into effect
admitting Utah as a state. Under that.
act the only prohibition was that plu-
ral marriages should cease. Nothingf
was said about cohabitation with our
wbwlvoa.”

"With the wives you had married
previouh to the manifesto, you mean?"
interrupted Mr. Hoar. - -

Nine People are Dead.

field Darlington. in New
York City_

NEW YORK, Marlh msfl—lnvestlga
tion was begun today by the Coroner,
the District Attorney, the Building Do.
partmonl and the police for the pur
pose of placing the responsibility for
the collapse yesterday of the Darling-
ton apartment. hotel building, on West
Forty- -slxth street. and the accompany-
:oss of life.

The number of dead cannot yet be
stated, even approximately, though
twenty-four hours have passed since
the building's collapse, so slowly has
the work of removing the wreckage
proceeded. lull the list of known (load
has reached ninc. two of the bodies
being still plnnui fast under piles of
debris, though plainly visible to the
searchers.

Five men are known to be missing
and as the tangled and interlaced mass-
es of beams and masonry are cleared
away, the bodies of these, possibly nth»
era, it is expected, will be recovered.

Sixteen iniurcd men were .tnkcu to
the hospitals last night, several of
whom are reported to be seriously
hurt.

Amid the pile of twisted iron girders,
masses of stone, brick and debris that
marks where- the big iron frame stood
the police and the enrployces of the
building department. assisted by fire
men are working to extricate the bur-
loll bodies, (‘hlof Croker, of the Fire
Department, and Coroner Scholer be-
ing in charge. Coroner Scholer stat-
ed that Charles it. Allison, head of the
Allison Realty Company, the general
contractors for the building, has dis-
appeared. He was seen last night, but
since than. the corner said, he has dis~
appeared and efforts of the police and
the coroner's cities to find him are
fruitless. Foreman liaipin, who was
in charge of the iron construction
work, is the only man now under ar-
rcst.

Little progress was made ill clearing
away the debris of the wrecked Hotel
Darlingwu during the night. owing to
the tangled conditions of the wreckage
and the lack of facilities for moving
the heavy girders and fragments or
masonry. At daybreak a hoisting en-
gine and derrick were secured and with
their aid the work went on more rapid
ly. -
in addition to the five bodies found

before daylight, but. for several hours
it was impossible to extricate any of
them. so tightly were they pinioned be-
neath hcaVy beams of iron. The first
one removed today was ident1tled as
that of Adam Durwalder, the boss
plumber for the flrnt which had the
plumbing contract His wife and sev-
en year—old son had remained on the
steps of a neighboring house all night.
waiting for news of the husband and
father, and when the body was identi<
tied Mrs. Durwalder became hysterical
and collapsed.

The other-Awe bodies, though in plain
sight, had not been extricated at 10
o'clock. One of them, which was ly-
ing in that part of the ruins nearest
the street, was clothed in garments of
good material and better out than those
worn bylaborers, and was thought to
be that of Frank Allison, the missing
member of the Allison Realty Com-
pany, propretors of the wrecked build.
ing. The body was resting face
downward, however. and as the search-
ers could not get near it. positive iden-
tification could not be made.

The third of the bodies had been cut
in two cleanly. as if by a knife, having
evidently been severed by a falling
girder.

The second body recovered today
was that of a man about six feet in
height, evidently a bricklayer. The
head was badly crushed making iden-
tification at present practically impos-
sible.

Man. Two Women and a Child Rescued
From Sinking Craft—Panic
on Board Vessel.

NEW YORK, March 3.—Navlgatlon
in the rivers and harbor is tied up to-
day by a heavy fog which settled down
on the city and suburbs from the ear-
ly morning. Ferryboats paid no at~
tention to schedules but made inter-
mlttcnt trips, feeling their way and
being guided chiefly by bells and
whistles. It was impossible to see
the length of the piers and on the riw
era the ferries loomed rip out of the
fog suddenly, throateningly but by care
iul handling and because of the entail-
er number of vessels that ventured out
the accidents were reduced to a mini
mum.

During the morning the Pennsylvania
fcrryboal Chicago sank a coal nurse.
and the statcn island ferryboat West
field was badly damaged by a collision
with an unknown vessel.

The Pa, R, R. ferryboat Chicago, on
her way from Jersey City to New York
today ran down and‘ sank the Henry
M. Trier. one of a tow of canal boats
in the Hudson river. A man. two wo-
men and a child who were on board the
canal boat were rescued. The ferry-
boat. which was crowded with passen-
gers, sustained but little damage. and.
though a slight panic occurred. the ex-

when their safety was assurred. The
collision was due to the heavy fog.

Later in the morning on a trip from
Manhattan to St. George. Staten is-
land. tha ferryboat Westdeld was in
collision with an unknown vessel, the
forward part of the ferryboat being car
ried away After safely disembarking
her fifty passengers at St. George the
Westflald was towed by two tugs to
Clifton for repairs.

The Westfleld had just avoided a
collision with the ferryboat Robert Gar-
rett whenvshe‘ crashed into a schooner
at. anchor near Robbins’ Reef, the
schooner'a bowsprit catching the West-
fleld‘s upper works and crushing
through the frame work and windows.
ripping a hold a quarter of its length.
The damage to the schooner is un-
known.
