O'clock—Not Known flow it-
Started
A fire which started from some on-
known cause, gutted a. large section of
the home of Mr. and Mrs. Chester S.
Selleck, at 4 lanes Place, Norwalkh
shortly after 8 o’clock this morning.‘
it is estimated that from 8400 to 8500
damage was done.
The firemen reached the house with-
In a very few minutes after the alarm
was turned in and their prompt ar-
rival and efficient work after getting
there undoubtedly saved the house
rorn much greater damage. Smoke
t the seat of the blaze was very in-
tense and the lack of respirators hamp-
ered- the firemen to no small extent.
Chief. J."1‘homas, of the Fire De-
part t." stated this morning that he

informed that these useful articles

but they persistently refuse to arrive.
The first was discovered just as Mr.
Selleck was about to start for the
Fairhald County National Bank. where
he is teller. After breakfast. Mr. and
Mrs, Selleck and the farmer's brother.
Dr. iii. Edward Selieck. had been sing-
ing in the parlor, and while they were
still in the latter room, Mrs.‘ Seilecli
became atvare ofthc odor of smoke.
It was thought at first that it emanat-
ed from the furnace and Mr; Selleck
went down in the cellar to see. He
found everything all right there and
came upstairs again to further investi-
ate. He hustled up the front stalls
d was met at the door of the sitting
room .on the second floor by belching
fiamss. which it was evident started in
the clOset. ' -
Mr. Selleck immediately realized
that the only- s‘alvation for the house
was the getting are of the F1 De-
partment withcu a . cat's clay.
He shouted , 3, rs.“ k and Dr.

men. started In in do Wha ‘_ ly could
with the liniitsd means at hand. A lad-
der was plaoel'idgainst the front porch
and a passalebroken into the room
_ where the names were by smashing a
window. Abbot this time the firemen
arrived. Simultaneous with their ap-
pearance was noticed the lack of a
good sized chemical tank. such as is
planned for the new truck which the
city is about? to purchase. The fire
fighters usedithe small hand chemical
tanks. but they were too small for ef-
fective use. it was found necessary
to shoot a heavy stream of water into
the names and as a result, a considerate
ble amount of the damage to the house
is ascribed to water. The firemen are
confident that a stream of chemicals
from a good sized tank would have
been effective and more expeditious.
The fire’s course was confined to the
closet. where it was first seen, the sit-
ting room adjoining and the front
hall on the second floor. Everything
in the closet and sitting room was eith-
er entirely consumed or completely
ruined and the'wcodwork of the hull
was scared and charred. The closet
was a large one and contained most
of Mr. and Mrs. Selleck's wearing ap-
parel. That it should have started
in this closet was-a great surprise to
Mr. Selleck for less than five minutes
before smoke was discovered, he had
been to this closet and taken out a
spring overcoat.
While the flames were being fought
.much of the furniture on the first fioor
was moved and'thus saved from dam-
age.
The house is owned by Mrs. Emily
Lynes. insurance was carried on the
building by Mrs. L net! and on the
contents by Mr. an Mrs. Selleck.

CARMI, 111.. March 23..-—Hehenrnal
of closing exercises at a country school
house of Carml yesterday ended in a
tragedy and the arrest of a farmer for
the. murder of a man who had been his
friend and neighbor for years.
George Nicholson and John Kurd
were seated together listening to and
criticising the recitations given by the
children. Both had “the daughters
taking part in the program. and there
was no hint of trouble until Nichol-
son's little girl started to say her piece.
Kurd made a. remark on her ner-
vousness, which Nicholson resented.
Their anger startled the little audi-
ence and efforts were made to get the
children away before blows ' were
struck. Before this could be done
Nicholson drew a revolver and pres-
sing it against Kurd’s side. fired. Kurd
died instantly. Women and children
fainted or became hysterical. When
Nicholson saw what he had done he
dropped on his knees beside Kurd. and
wept.
The children and wives of the two
men in their holiday clothes stood
moaning nearby. Nicholson was plac-
cd under arrest.

Another Norwalk saloon proprietor,
John Mahoney, who has a place in
Main street, is shaking in his boots
with fear that he will lose his license.

Proprietor Mahoney, on a charge of
violating the screen law on Sunday.
came up again this morning before
Judge Edward M. Lockwood. who
of 810 and costs. Attorney'John Keogh
counsel for the defendant. immediately
took an appeal to the Supe‘rIOr Court.
This conviction is a. serious thing for
Mahoney, for it means the loss of his
license,_nccording to the autumn, for
it is the second time he has been
laws. The first offense occurred seve
ral years ago.
Judge Lockwood holds practically the
same opinion in this class. as he does
in that of Daniel B. Slam. Whose
Superior Court. The statute allows
the judge adoption of~giving~the tie
fendant a certificate that in his opino
ion the offence was not of sufficient
gravity to merit the taking away of the
license by the county commissioners.
The laws saysthat for a second con-
viction. the license shall be taken
away. Judge'riinckwood holds that it
makes no difference how long a. time,
whether less or more than a year, in-
tervenes betwetin convictions. '
in pronouncing sentence this morn-
ing, Judge hockwood stated that he
had visited the premises of the de-
fendant. as Was agreed by Liquor Pro-
secutor Clark and Attorney Keogh. of
the defence, and he found that the
screen law was being violated.
The case against Mahonoy was
brought at the same time that similar
charges were made against his bro-
ther, Thomas Mahoney, owner of a sa-
loon in Water street and James ' F.
Plunkett, whose place of business is in
River street.
Thomas Mahoney and Plunkett were
each fined 810 and costs and through

NEW YORK, March 23,—The Thaw
trial stands adjourned until Wednes-
day next as directed by Justice Fits-
Gerald at the brief session of court
yesterday but by 2 o'clock this after-
noon. in accordance with the justices'
prior instructions, counsel for the de-
fense must file affidavits and other
evidence controverting the affidavits
submitted by District Attorney Jerome
to the effect that the prisoner is of
unsound mind and incompetent to con-
sult his lawyers.
The defense is already prepared with
\ this evidence. and this afternoon it
will file with the clerk of the court.
along with the affidavits, a letter of
Thaw's bidding Delphln M. Dolmen
, take charge of his case and follow such
a course as he deems best in present-
ing it to the jury. The defense con-
siders this letter strong proof that
Thaw is capable of advising his law
rs.
The circumstances under which the
letter was written are said to have
been these: .
The second day of the defense.
which was shortly after the trial he
gan. it almost broke down owing to
the district attorney’s savage on-
slaught upon its‘first medical witness.
Dr. Wiley. Differences ensued among
the Thaw lawyers and it was reported
. at the time that Mr. Delmas told Thaw
that if the then confused state of his
defense lasted he would not be res-
ponsible for the outcome of the trial.
Upon this Thaw wrote to Mr. Delmas
from the Tombs. making him his lead-
ing trial lawyer. Mr. Dclmas will ac-
company the letter today with an affi-
davit by himself that his client is
well able to consult his counsel and
that he has done so daily since the
trial began. Manners Hartridge, Glea-
son. lilcl’ikc, and Peabody. and O’Rcll-
ly will also submit similar affidavits.
' All the alienlsts for the defense will
offer affidavits inklud. One of ihciu
has made an examination of Thaw as
late as last Wednesday.nnd his con-
clusions will be tombodldd In his affl-
davit. Among the ‘ alienlsts affida-
vits will be one by Dr. George H.
chef who has nct'tesriftett in-the
case. but harlot with Thaw during
the trial. ' ‘ '
To further strengthen their conten-
tion that the prisoner is sane and
competent. counsel will file‘ a series of
notes and memorandni'written by Thaw
to them during the trial:r It had been
thought that. some of-‘Thaw‘s relatives
would make affidavits but it was learn-
ed last night that they will not do

were written prior to White's death
and some subsequent. to it. They were

Arnold Martin, a colored man, was
sent to jail this morning for sixty
days on charges of obtaining money
under false pretenses from Mrs.
George Gainer, of 83 Cedar street.
Some days ago Mrs. Gainor ordered
some coal from B. Hershfleld and in
some way Martin learned that she in<
tended to pay for it yesterday. lie
accordingly went to her home, reprc~
settled that he came from Mr. Hersh-
field. and wanted the money. Mrs.
Gainor gave him 82, but later tele-
phoned to Hershneld and found out
that she had been humbugged.
Martin was arrested from a descrip-
tion given by her and confessed that
he took the money. ‘As he could give
no excuse of any kind his sentence
was made sixty days in jail.
