The police are investigating an in-
cendiary fire which took place last
evening In Ely avenue. There is every
probability that Fire Marshal Rusliug.
of Bridgeport. will he called Into the
case by the seiectmcn and if possible
the ilt'obug will be arrested and placed
where he belongs.
It was bolls-veil that the fire in lloyt
street sevtlal days ago was of incen-
diary origin. and it is thought that this
is the work of the same flrcbug.
At 11:15 last night an alarm was
rung from box 23, at the corner of Ely
avenue and llouton street The tire-
men responded quickly and found It
.o be in the house occupied by All-
drew Kling car inspector for the New
101k New Haten and Hartford Rail-
road Company. Tlte fire was extin-
guir- 11 1d before it had done great dam-
age to the house and it is probable
that the, (‘illitll dmnage will not be
.noic than $100.
in the basement where the fire start-
cd it was found that kerosene had
been copiously applied an there were
burned matches around which showed
that it had been started. It also start-
rd 3 few moments later in another
place. on top of the sink among a num.
111': of paint poll; and other inflamable
articles. Chief Luther M. Wright in-
vertigated the lite and believes that It
.1; ol' incendiary origin. He asked Mr.
Kling about it. btit he could shed no
light. on the subject, and saw no one
about the place near the time the fire
started. Mr. Kling carries $1,500 in-
surance on the house and $5100 on the
furniture. The .l. M. Layton Agency is
now adjusting the loss.
N'orwalk Men Made a Mistake.
When the South Norwalk fire alarm
rang last night. some of the members
of the Norwslk tire department mis-
took it for the uptown alarm. James
H. M‘agner, driver of the Hope Hose
wagon. started out and got well down
West avenue before he discovered the
mistake. First Assistant Engineer F.
W. Smith was another Norwalk fire-
men who mistook the alarm and stare
ed out. It is supposed that the wind
was just right to carry the sound or
the bell.

lines To Jail.
Must Serve Out a Sen-l
tence of four Months for
Slashing William Silk. who
will Bear Razor Marks as
long as lie lives
Annie Morgan starts this afternoon
for a four months' visit to Bridgeport.
Annie. or Mrs. Dohcrty, is the woman
who seriously slashed William Silk
with a razor a week ago in a fracas
on Taylor avenue. Annie was tried
this morning and found guilty. Judge
Taylor imposed the above sentence up-
on her.
The court room was crowded. all the
seats being occupied and a crowd of
the curious standing on tip too In the
doorway. A couple of men "rubbered"
ill at the window. Silk. the wounded
man, was a little late in arriving, but
when he came in" a carriage from
which he had to be assisted. It was
readily seen why he was late. The
right side of his face. was swelled tip
to the size of a small football and a
great gash covered with yellow Iodo
form extended from his eye down to
his chin. Ills left arm was in a sling
and he sta'tqcred front weakness as he
walked, Ilia face was a horrible sight.
Even the ilnhcrtv woman appeared to
be shocked at what she had done.
though she pleaded not guilty to the
charce a few minutes later.
Silk was first put on the witness
land. He said that on the night in
question. he and Andrew Oldfield were
walking along Taylor avenue, when
they saw a man namedSmlth who lives
with the Doherty woman. They went
up and took hold of him for the pur-
pose of talkin? to him. Silk did nOt
know the lioberty woman, he said.
They commenced to talk and Smith
struck him. knocking him down. Old-
fleld grabbed Smith and held him.
In the meantime the. Dohcrly woman
had shouted “Wait a minute, he's my
husband. I'll get something that will
fix that follow." She. ran into the
house, came out again in a. minute.
threw off her coat, rolled up her
sleeves. went over to where Silk lay
on tho ground. She kicked him and
leaned over him. When Silk arose, he
“cited blood dropping from him and
discovered that he had been cut. He
then ran for a doctor. The weapon was
a sharp knife which Smith used to
shave with. She sustained a cut on
the left arm and the little finger of
iiidficld's hand was also cut.
The same story was told by Olds-
tlcld, who was the next witness. The
coat which Silk were showed that the
cutting had been done by some very
sharp instrument.
Dr. Francis I. Darnell was the next
witness called. He described the in-
furles which Silk had sustained, stated
that he would carry the marks of the.
wound as long as he lived and that the
cut went right through his cheek. He
said that a section of tissues about an
Inch and a halflong. half an inch wide
and half an Inch deep had been cut
from Silk's arm.
Bernard Lee. a boy who lives near
the scene of the fight, told what he
saw of it and practically substantiat-
ed the evidence given by Silk.
Smith was put on the stand and tes-
tified slightly In favor of the. woman
She herself proved to be the best wit-
ness for the state. for she admitted hav-
ing said that she would fix Silk. The
fact that Silk was fixed was evident
from his appearance.
Attorney Tammany summed up and
arizued the case for the state and At
tomey Louis Beers for the pi isoner
Judge Taylor found the woman gulltv
and sent. her to jail for four months,
together with the costs of the case,
which must be worked ottt in jail.

Ior. from calling on Mrs. Lavinia H.
Foy, an aged and wealthy resident
1f Dwight Street, or from communion
ting in any manner with her. was hdld
today In the common pleas court. Gen-
eral George M. Harman. son of Mrs.
Foy. appeared as one of the petitioners
for the Injunction, the others being
the. trustees of Mrs. Foy's estate.
After Seymour C. InutnlB. attorney
for Mr. Hard, had made a formal mo-
”Oil for the dissolution of the Injunct-
Ion. William H. Ely, counsel for Gen-
oral Harmon and the trustees, addres-
sed the court. Mr. Ely said the peti-
tioners had hoped that a settlement
might be arranged In this matter with-
out annoyancc to Mrs. Foy. but since
the defendant chose to tight. the no
tltiouers would meet the Issue square-
ly. He said the intention was to make
application for the appointment. of u.
conservator for Mrs. Foy. and he asked
for a postponement of the nearing on
the motion to dissolve the Injunction,
pending the completion or the proceed-
ings for a conservator. “Hurd is not
suffering from this injunction unless
the allegation Is true." said Mr. Ely,
"and if true, he should be made to
suffer."
