WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS.
Secured by Mrs. Richard M. Irwin to
Get Pessesaion of Child.
Mrs. Richard M. lrwm has prayed
out a writ of habeas corpus, which
was served this afternoon by Deputy
Sheriff John W. Sculley on Mrs. Phoe-
bc Clock, of Dorian. The writ is to
secure possession of Nellie E. McDon’
old. a child of Mrs. Irwin by a former
husband. The writ alleges that the
child is unlawfully held from the plain-
tiff. The writ was issued by‘Judgc
Howard J. Curtis. oi the c0urt of com-
mon pleas. Mrs. Clock has been sum-
moned to appear in the Common Pleas
Court in Bridgeport on Tuesday. Au.
gust 9. to answer to the complaint.
Judge Joseph R. Taylor is counsel
for the plaintiff.
HATTING SITUATION BRIGHTER.
All Difficulties May Be Adjusted This
Week.
The batting situation assumed a
much brighter aspect yesterday and it
Is now believed that a day or two at
the most will be sufficient to settle all
of the difficulties at present existing
between the batters and the hat manu-
facturers. It is understood that all
the shops have signed the bills of
prices with the exception of the J. C.
Wilson shop. Crofut & Knapp have
settled the matter by signing the bill.
and it is believed that the Wilson shop
will follow suit today or tomorrow.
This being the case it will probably be
unnecessary to leave any of the mat-
ters to arbitration.
LORENZO FlORI ARRESTED.
Another Chapter in the Springwood
Property Dispute Case.
A body writ was served today upon
Lorenzo Flori, brought by Mr. and Mrs.
Michael Lubrano in a suit asking dam-
ages of $200 for alleged trespass in
building a fence upon property alleged
to be owned by the plaintiffs. The
matter is another chapter in the legal
feud between the Flori-'s and the Lu-

The dualntest town we saw was Old
Nuremburg. the old part is still sur-
rounded by the accident wall aur-
mounted by great towers in good state

stood for six hundred years. Deep
channels are worn in the hugh stone
blocks simply by rain running down
from the Joints of the blocks above;
the andent moat outside the walls is
largely intact and is bridged Dyer by
many bridges connecting the streets
running from the old to the new city.
The old castle on the berg built in the
thirteenth century has apartments still
occupied by the Emperor on his visits
to Bavaria. and its pentagonal tower.
the oldest structure of the city has its

Under the old Rnthnus we went

to Germany under the terms of peace
and now has a garrison of 20,000
troops. The parade and drill ground
is a great field on which thousands of
soldiers can maneuver at the same
time. We saw several regiments on-
gagcd in drills and evolutions without
interference. The day was warm. the
troops wore in heavy marching order.
and the work was hcnvy. but the cf-
licers spared neither the men nor

the soldier of the Latin countries.

cipal speech in French was that of M.

in English, that of Consul General Gow-
dy. The French Ambassador at Wash
, ington. M. Jusserand. then visiting his
home, made a. speech in French. and al-
so one in English. The enthusiasm
was fine; French and American com-
pliments were abundant and assurances
of friendly relations were lavish. The
French government paid a compliment
to the occasion by sending a large de-
tail of dragcons in full- dress uniform
to act as a guard of honor; they were
stationed from the street through the
corridor. up the stair case and around
the reception room and banquet hall.
Also a military band of seventy-live
pieces was sent to furnish the music;
they played through the entire pro-
gram of exercises. and a final march
when the guests left the tables after
midnight. 0f the dinner itself, it
will be enough to say that it was a
French dinner of twelve courses with
the kinds of wines besides coffee and
liquors. and took three hours for its
service.
The most interesting event to me
was the review of the French army
stationed at Paris on the Iongcbamps
racing field in'the Bola de ,Boulogne on
the 11th of July which is called athe
French Republic's 4th of July. The
review was by M Loubet, President of
France. who was accompanied by the
Boy of Tunis. Through the courtesy
of Consul General Gowdy I secured
one of the much priced and sought for
tickets to the ceremony.

Our trip back on the Kaiser Wilhelm
II, was our fastest ocean ride. five days
and a half from Chcrbourg. She is
the finest passenger ship afloat, and
the fastest. having broken the Atlantic
record this summer. iler engines
which the Chief Engineer took us down
to see. are the most powerful marine
engines in the world. One first cabin
passenger died. one second cabin pas-
senger committed suicide by shooting,
and one became violently insane. 'i‘lvo
babies were born in the sicernge and
one child died and was buried at sea.
One engineer had his arm terribly
crushed in the machinery and received
a. purse of two hundred and fifty doi-
hire from the passengers. Such are
the incidents aboard a steamer carry-
ing passengers enough to populate a
goo sized Conectlcut town. Off the
banks of Newfoundland the sun was
