The bulldnlg committee of the
town, which has the responsibility of
erecting the new central town high
school in West'avcnue. is now iiwalt-
lug the result of tlio figuring on plans
and specifications by Wilson Potter,
who the committee chose as architect

_for the new building. At the last
meeting of the committee, Mr. Potter
was particularly impressed with the

. fact that he must draw up plans and

”specifications that will complete the
structure for the appropriated amount,
883.500. The land cost $11,500. which
will bring the total cost of the school.
up to $95,000.

The committee proposes to hand the
building over to the town and ready

NEW YORK. Nov. li’i.~b‘oriiiei'
Governor B. B. Odell. Jr.. today re»
quested Chairman Armstrong, of the
insurance investigating committee. to
call him before the committee and
give him an opportunity to testify un-
dcr oath in reply to the testimony of
Mr. Hyde, given before the commit-
tee.

James Hazeu Hyde was the first
witness today before the Armstrong
committee on insurance investigation.
He asked to correct his testimony of

'yesterday relative to the offers for his
stock. He said he dlii i'ecoivc four
offers besides that of Mr. Ryan. Two
of these came front Mr. Harriniau and
Mr. b‘rick. He was offered 35.000.000
for his entire holdings. and $2,500,000
for half of them. George Gould also
made such an offer. but them: were
all declined because witness did not
think one man should control the so
clety. Cage 19. Tarbell also made an
offer anti said he had a. syndicate
ready to buy it. George W. Young

Those Were all verbal offers.

The largest price offered was 37.-
000.000 by (lungs W. Young, former
president. of the United States Mort-
gage and Trust Company. Mr. Gould's
offer was made first. "That, was in
the beginning of the row." said Mr.
Hyde. "must have been in the first
part of February; the second offer was
made by Mr. l-‘rlck a few moments be.
fore the first. board meeting in Febru-
ary of five million dollars for the on-
tlre holdings or of two and one—half
millions for one-half of the holdings.
l declined both of these offers. as 1
did not think it was for the best iii-
terest of the society that I should then
part. with my stock. or if i did part
with it, i didn't think it best interest
of the society that our individual
should control it. i had no idea of
parting with my stock at. that time. i
offered to trustee it to the society for
five years. That was at. the begiir
plug of this trouble. i first offered
to trustee it for five years and then
afterwards offered it to the society. to
buy it. and then i afterwards discov-
ered the society didn‘t have the right
to buy it.”

"What was the third offer?"

"The third offer was an offer of one
million dollars from Mr. Tarbell. He
informed me that he. had a syndicate
of gentlemen ready to purchase it.
This was some time in February."

"What was the next offer?"

"Then i also recelyeil an offer from
George W. Young of 87,000,000. i
should say that. was at the end of Feb-
ruary. or the beginning of March. i
am not. sure of the exact date.”

Hours After Going Out to Set
. Boundaries for Oyster Ground

m

The residents of Rowaytiou and Dar~
ieu were shocked yesterday, to learn
of the sudden and somewhat. tragic
death of George Williamson. one of
the oldest and most respected of the
people who live on the west side of
Rownyton harbor, which is in the town
of Darlen.

Mr. Williamson owns seine valuable
oyster ground in the vicinity of his
home, which is on the shore, and he
went out in his sailboat, yesterday
morning. for the purpose of buoylng
some of the ground. in this purpose
stones were to be used. had whether

Mr. Williamson over-exerted himself,
or had a stroke of apoplexy.is not
definitely known. but the latter is be
lieved to have been the immediate
cause of death.

, He was found lying in the bottom of
his boat. which was partly filled with
water. during the forenoon by George
Davis. also a resident of Rowayton.
who was out working on his oyster
grounds.

Mr. Davis called for assistance from
Harvey Minor and Frederick Cakes,
and the men succeeded in getting Mr.
Williamson's bout ashore. Here med-
ical aid was summoned. but it. was
learned that he probably had been
dead about three hours when found.

Mr. Williamson is survived by a
wife and two sons. Samuel and Judson
Williamson. and they have the sincere
sympathy of many friends in their be.
reavoment.

The deceased was our of the best
known steamboat engineers who ever
ran a vessel. For a number of years
he was employed on the Sandy Hook
stesuiboats, and later was engineer on
the Jupiter. Laurel. F. C. and A. h}.
Rowland, and other vessels. He could
always be depended. on was llllllitt-
trioiis tutti conscientious and hail the
respect. of all with whom he canic‘lti
contact.

Judson Willlniiisoii was on I‘”lg ls-
liind, yesterday. having gone over in
his sail boat. and u launch was (les-
puichoil for him. and he returned home
later in the day.

Mr. Williamson was a nephew of
AluiisonWilliamson. who sustained a
broken hip a few days ago, and has
it brother. Frank Williamson. who re~
sides in Darlen.

The funeral will be held Friday uf~
ternoon at 2 p. 111.. from his late resi-
tlt'iioo. The. interment will be in I'll-
ion Coniotery, Rowayion.

of another Norwnlk lt‘al'lnii. and while
he was there the conversation turned
to llll‘ subject of Gaspdriuno’s absence
from Norwuik.

wav remarked in ltulinn:

"Well. i guess Joe has gone to Cain

”He has not." quickly responded
Kelly. ‘

The cobbler onipiiatrcaily returned
that. ho bud and said lie further. up-
parcntly clinching the argument:

"i know that he has, ifor tho day be-
fore he went away, he came in here
and told the that ho was going there."

This statement moved Kelly to ex-

intend to Have Penny and:
Nioklo-in-the-Slot Machines
Removed, and the Liquor
Laws Rigidly Enforced in the
Future ‘

 

 

 

A number of the clergyman of The
Norwalks have handed themselves to-
gether in a crusade which they pro-
pose to shortly launch for civic right-
eousness in the two cities. Their )n-
tention is to have certain laws. par-
ticularly those in regard to penny-in-
the-slot cigar machines. niokel-ln-the-
slot machines, which pay money, and
the liquor laws in regard to Sunday
selling. and the selling of intoxleants
to children. rigidly enforced.

To that end a delegation of five

ministers. the Rev. George Drew Eg-
bert. pastor of the Norwalk Congres
gattonal Church; the Rev. W. Wofford
T. Duncan, pastor of the South Nora
walk Methodist Church; the Rev. Lew-
is K. Moore, pastor of the Norwaik
Methodist Church; the Rev. Edward
W. Cunningham. pastor of the East
Avenue Methodist Church. and the
Rev. Hugh B. Carpenter, pastor of the
South Norwalk Baptist Church. called
on Mayor George B. Buxton. at the
Norwalk Hotel. where he resides. last
night. to secure his cooperation in
havin'ir the laws referred to strictly ad~
bored to.

The clergymen had quite an extend-
ed conference with the mayor and he
assured the reverend gentlemen that.
he would assist them in every way.
as mayor of Norwalk. to see that the
laws are obeyed in the city.

The clergyman had a similar con-
forcnce with Mayor Charles E. Dow a
few evenings ago. and the executive
save them the same assurance that.
Mayor Buxton had in regard to Nor-
walk. He will do all in his power to
have the laws enforced to the letter
in South Norwaik.

The clergyman have prepared an op-
en letter to the citv officials of built
cities. the police and prosecuting offt.
ciuls. and as soon as this is signed by
as many clergyman of The Novwalks
whose signatures can be procured, it
will be published in the local papers.

Out- of the pastors who was epres-
ciit last evening at the conference
with Mayor Buxtou said:

“We. propose to start a crusade for
civic righteousness. and will do all in
our power to see that existing laws
are complied with. in regard to the
slot iiiachlnes, they disappeared for a
time after an arrest was made awhile
ago. but they have been gradually
creeping back again until now they
are in operation again about the same
as they were before they were taken
out. Children play them as well as
men. it is true that laws in regard
to these matters will always be brok-
cii. but unless we keep at the offend-
ers continually they will soon be en-
tirely disregarded."

it is reported that an especial effort
will be directed against the Sunday
selling of liquor in one' particularly
well populated section of South Nor-
walk.

Several days ago the machines disv
appeared from South Norwalk stores
and today the tip went uiuuuu ivor~
walk that there was a reform wave
due and the machines were placed
in back rootns for a few days.
