New Britain Police in the Dark Regard
ing Killing of Boaworth.
NelW BRITAIN, August 3.———'l‘wcnty-
four hours after Eugene Boswortb had
been beaten to death in the room
which he was equipping for gambling
purposes in Ward‘s block, on Main
street. the police are without scarcely
a single tact additional in reference to
the crime than was in their possession
as many minutes after its discovery.
That Bosworth was beaten into in-
sensibility by one man and robbed of
his two and one-half carat diamond
ring. and whatever money he had in
his possession, is practically the limit
of their knowledge.
Whether the. man was a confederate
of Bosworth of someone of the many
victims whom he had undoubtedly
fleeced in his career of twenty years
of policy promoting, remains an un-
solved question. The thoery of the no
two is thattbe murderer was an as-
sociate oi‘ Bosworth, a man who knew
just how he was located. and what
money he had in his possession. who
camr- to New Britain within a few hours
of the time of the murder with the dc.-
libcrate intention of robbing him if
not committing murden Tht police
however, have not as yet a single fuel
to hear this out.
They have learned, - however, that
Boswerth had a “pal" in Danbury, and
his identity ls being investigated.
Chief of Police Rowlings says this
IIIOI‘IIillg that be was satisfied nothing
could be gleaned from Bosworth' s wife.
She seemed to be as much in the dark
as everyone else.
One tact discovered today is mater—
ial It is le'atned that the murderer
waited long enough after beating h'ls
victim lnsenslble to wash his hands.
There Is a sink in the adjoining room
and while no towel was found, the
soap was bloody and there was a
bloody imprint on the wall or a man's
'hand.
The murderer wits evident weak.
giving the impression that he had had
a struggle and had put out his hand
.. to brace himself. A stove pipe leading
into a fine which connects‘wlth Olcott's
saloon below. may have given the mur-
derer the opportunity todtspose of his
weapon It will be necessary to tear
out part of the building to get into
the chimney, and the police were work-
ing about it today. One effect of the
murder predlc is the cleaning out

One of the topics was the presence

sire any present but employees and
the members of the union who were
apprised of this 'fact looked about the
hall searchingly for faces not familiar
in their regular sessions. At least a
dozen were asked to leave the hall and
all Imt one did so reluctantly. but with-
out objection. The exception was ush-
ered to the door and had it stint in his
face.
ltev, Mr. Irvine mid President Burke
mounted the stage and a few minutes
before Mr. I’underford, and throughout
the meeting were the only occupants
of the platform besides him.
The session began at 2:30 o'clock
and Mr.- I’unilerford. after prayer by
Rev. Mr. Irvine. proceeded to make the
following statement to the men after
which he read to them the rules of the

his own. The 8500 in each class will
be divided equally among the men

pcrlntendent's books for any viola-
tions of the rules during the term 0.

no man in either class who has not
had his name one the records for some
trivial offense. I have adopted a do
merit system for the several violations,
so that if there be no clean i-m-orvi.q

number of marks against them WIII

had become very Meant and their ef‘
forts to sell forced the market down
and about wiped out the rise.
