ti t, has confessed an indebtedness
I to anks, commercial institutions and
statutes of which be had charge, which
or . aggregate between $2,000,000and
‘08. 00,000 and, based on biscotifes.
slop, a voluntary petition in bankrupt.
oy lute been filed in the United States
'Disgrict Caurt which contains the
names of as many of Mr. Bigelow's
editor: as he can remember, togeth-
7.5.615 'iyith,» a list of assets on which his
_ valuation is $1,419,000. His creditors
are: scattered all over United States.
Cine estate has been looted, the indebt~
. ‘eduess to the Brodhead estate being
$100,000. This debt. is unsecured. it
“(isalsmbeiievod other trusts held by
the; former banker have suffered.
Those familiar with the situation fear
‘hisiliabilities will be considerable
‘more than the present estimate, as
they believe subsequent revelations
will reveal transactions of even more

, startling nature.

Attorney Charles P. Spooner. who

filed the voluntary petition In behalf

. of Mr. Bigelow was compelled to make
up the petition in such a short time
it is far from complete and will neces-
sarily have to be amended. So far as
could be ascertained, the banker had
no system of recording his financial
transactions. and the schedule had it)
be made up from a list made in pcu-
cii on half a sheet. of notepupcr in
Mr. Blgelow‘s handwriting. He was
not positive as to the names of some
creditors nor of the nature of some
of the companies and had nothing to
hand to refresh ills memory. so the
attorney was obliged to use his best.

.. judgment. in figuring out what con-
‘cerns were meant.

The fresh revelations and filing of
the petition in bankruptcy will neces-
sitate the withdrawal of the securities
which were turned over to the First
National Bank as having been mmle
within four months of the filing of the
ptition in bankruptcy, the act constitu-
ted preference of creditors. The

' amount, estimated at $300,000, will be.
equally divided among all the credit-
ors. ‘ This will in no way affect the
bank, however, as the guarantee of
the directors and stockholders more
than covers the tlt‘ltlli'alltfll.

HOME GOOD ENOUGH FOR THEM.

m

My: Glad Enough to Get
suck to Danbury.

Mr. J. Keefe. father of Frederick
Keefe, one ofthe Danbury boys picked
up in Stamford, Tuesday, by Police-
man McMahon, came to Btamfordld
man McMahon, went. to Stamford,
train time Mr. Keefe had his son and
Master Charles Conkiin. .lust before
train time Mr. Keefe. and his son and
Conklin brought up front the lockup
to police headquarters. ,

"Well, Fred, are you ready to go
home?" he asked. “Aren‘t you sorry
fotl' your conduct and ashamed of your.
se i?" . . .

“I didn‘t send for you." was the
boy's reply. “I don't care whether or
not you take me back. In fact, in
rather not go home."

"Guess you’d better leave him here
with us, Mr. Keefe," suggested chief
Brennan. “‘We‘ve got enough against
him to send him away to the Reform
School. It's a real nice place for had
little boys."

“l’il take Charlie back home to his
parents, and you can keep Fred," rc-
spondcd the father in seeming serious-
litriis "

Then the flood-gates opened. Police
headquarters has never had such a
drenching as Master Keefe gave it.
He subbed couvulsively. He threw
himself on his knees before his fath-
er, and begged and begged to be In»
ken home. His chum, who appeared
to be. built more on the lilies o. llli‘.
boy of the world. and up to this point
scuttled to regard the performance as
a joke, begun to weep in sympathy.
Mr, Keefe and Chief Brennan took ad.
vantage of the. opportunity to impress
upon the youngsters the folly of their
conduct. When the parent finally told
his son to get ready to go back to
llunbury, the boy had lost all of his
air of bravado, and was a very mock
youngster,

During the afternoon, Robert Mo
Laughiln. who Is subbing for l’olit-t»
man iiyland in the latter's illness,
picked up a couple of revolvers that
were in the boy's outfit when they
were taken in. While under confine-
ment in the detention room, the boys
managed to throw the revolvers out of
it window. They were six-shooters.
and were loaded with .22-culihre curl-
ridges. McLaughlin found them on
the ground beneath the window. The.
boys admitted (IWIlt‘l'SIIID of the r"-
yolvors. They said they bought int-in
in Norwalk, yesterday, and paid $2 for
each.

Mr. Keefe mid the police the two
boys and Tony Creighton. another
youngster, left home Monday after-
noon, ostensibly to go fishing. Young
Keefe took $19 of his father's money
from a bureau drawer, and bought
tickets for all three into Bridgeport.
There, friends of Creighton saw the
boy and sent. him back home. it was
about 10 p. m., when Mr. Keefe heard
of his son's flight. Then he set out
to find hint. He said the boy never
had given him any imultic and always
has been wolf behaved, The (lonklin
boy is one of a large family supported
by a mother. He is a mischievous boy
and his mother had made arrange-
ments to place hint in a home.

"i didn't want to go to any Home,"
sold the youngster. “and lup and run
away."

All the boys want to go toEA'l‘

All the beya would say about their
destination was that they Intended to
go to New York to 50,0 the nienugerie.
They would not tell what they intend-
ed to do with the revolvers.

out Water 'ltlia Summer.

Supt. F. E. iluhbell, of the West-
port Water Company, as received
word from Newton Jackson, the owner
of the present company. that the wa-
ter must be shut off from the tanks
as the town of Westport has not paid
a certain back bill.

This will be quite a deprivation to
many particularly those who live on
the outskirts of- tlie townand who
have been in the habit of watering

. their horses at the tanks, prior to set-

ting out for home. -

Mr. Jackson says that if the town
desires to have water in the tanks,
they will have to pay an annual ren-
tal of $300 or $150 for each tank. it
is understood that there will be . a.
special town meeting called to de-
:ide whether this amount shall be
paid for the use of the tanks.

THE PASSOVER ENDS.

_._._—.-

Difference in Practice of Orthodox and
Reformed Jews.

The Feast of the Passover, the most
important festival of the Hebrews, will
come to an and tonight. The festival
commenced Wednesday night of last
week.

According to the practice of the re
formed sect of that people the holiday
closed last night, but the orthodox
Jews observe two holy days at the
commencement of the feast. and two
at the close, so that with them the fes~
tivai will not end until Thursday
night.

This is one of the points of differ-
ence between the ,two,sects of Heb-
rews. The orthodox observe two holy
days for almost every feast or fast and
the. reformed only one.
