DOVER. Del.. April 24.-Fra.nk H.
Butler, employed as a deckhand on
the steamer John P. Wilson, was taken
into custody today and held for a
hearing tomorrow, charged with the
murder of Horace N. Marvin, the four-
yearold son of Dr. Marvin, whose dis-
appearance on March 4 aroused the en,
tire country. The theory of the de-
tectives responsible for the arrest is
that. the boy was murdered or cool»
dentally killed, and that Butler knows
som hing about the case.

Bu ler was arrested when the steam-
boat was at the landing at Bowers
Beach, Del. He denies knowledge of
the disappearance of the child, and
reiterates that the boy was sitting on
a haystack on the Marvin farm when
he and several other men who were
moving the effects of the former owner
of the land, left the place

The arrest of llutler was made prin-
cipally upon a. statement given the do
tectives by a man horned Caldwellr
who was working with Butler the day
the child disappeared. Butler, he
says, was ordered to go to the barn
.and load up wheat. screenings In bags.
Thla'he did. and when Caldwell later
entered the barn he found that Bullet
had loaded three bags into a wagon
and a fourth was lying on‘ the floor
of the barn. Caldwell says he lifted
this bag into the wagon himself and
found it heavy, although Butler said
it was filled with corks such as are
used by fishermen for nets. This bag.
Caldwell says, disappeared. Acting
on the theory that this bag contained
the body of the child, the detectives
decided to charge Butler with murder.

The opinion among the residents of
this city and the farmers Is that But
ler knows little if anything about the
case.

Senator Doonvan Cannot Bee How the
State Derived Any Benefit
Pram It.

HARTFORD, April 24.—Senator
Donovan indulged in sharp criticism
of the excursion of state officers and
legislators to Jamestown. in the Sen-
ate, today, when a motion was made
to send a large number of matters
starred for action to the foot of the
calendar to await the return of some
senators. Senator Judson presided
during the first half of the session and
was replaced by'Senator Brooks. Sen-
ator Donovan said it was to be regret
’ ted that so many members of the Gen-
eral Assembly had 'gone’sway on plea-
sure.and neglected their duties. “it
is a serious thing to do," said he, ”and
they should take the consequences (re-
ferring to the wish of severed to have
, action delayed on bills until their re-
turn). There is nothing in the consti-
.. tutiou or the statutes which gives the
members the right to leave the state
or to incur expenses such. as will be
incurred by the, party. The governor

for Judson called the senator’s atten
tion to his inconsistency in having
voted to send the delegates. Senator
Donovan at once replied that no vote
on the matter was ever taken. A near-
by" senator whispered to the senator,
and Mr. Donovan said that”he had just
been told that the trip to Jamestown
was for the state’s good. "i don't be-

lieve so, but let's hope so." said he.
Senator Donovan, when Mr. Brooks
was in the chair, moved that a commit-
tee of two wait on the acting governor
,(Judaon). and inquire if he had- any
communication to send to the body
' He did not believe that the senator
could act in two capacities, that Is. as
a legislator and us an executive. (Sen-
ator Judson was In his seat at the
time). - Mr. Judson rose and said that

Testimony given In Stamford, Mon-
day afternoou, in the contest of the
will of the late John W. Crlasey, whose
heirs are trying to prevent the Pres-
byterian Church of Noroton from get-
ting his 020.000 estate. after they have
had life use of it, revealed some in-
teresting things. . ‘

The witness who gave most of the.
Interesting information Is Mrs. Ada
'I‘ryon, the daughter of Mrs. Sands
Bishop. and granddaughter of Mr.
Crlssey. Under the will, Mrs. Tryon
Is to have life use of the estate after

but as the children are very young.
the church may not come into Its own
for a great many years. even if the will
be not set aside.

One interesting bit of testimony giv-
en by Mrs. Tryon was that, while her
grandfather considered the will a
"cast Iron Instrument" that could not
be broken. Judge H. Stanley Finch.
who draw it. said that it could easily
be broken. Another witness said,
however, that what. Judge Pinch real-
ly said was that If Mr. Crissey Were
Incapable, as Mrs. Tryon represent/ed
him to be, the will then could easily
be broken.

Could Draw Checks All Right.

Another interesting bit of testimony
given by Mrs. Tryon. one on which
Mr. Scolleld. counsel for the proponent.
dwelt a good deal. was that. while
she and other heirs of Mr. Crissey
considered him incapable of making
a will, they believed him perfectly ca~
pubic of drawing checks in their in-
vor. Mrs. Tryon testified that she
drew four checks for $100 each. two
made payable to her mother. and two
payable to her; uncle.“ Payson E. Cris-

them. they were‘cashed. She did not
consider this unusual, and said almost

MR. QUINTARD’S BILL PASSED.

 

 

Nor-walk Representative Scores An-
other Legislative Victory.

Representative Frederick “. Quill-
tard. of Norwalk. was gratified in the
House. in Hartford. yesterday. when
his bill regarding the taking of brook
trout was passed, despite the unfavor-
able report of the committee on fish-
ories and game.

The Hartford Couraut, this morn.

ing, In its re rt of the matter, print-
ed the follow ng:
House bill No. 293. amending an act
concerning the taking of small trout.
The bill, which had been unfavorably
reported last week. placed the mini.
mum length of trout to be taken at
seven Inches.

Mr. Cruttenden, of Norwich, opposed
the report, saying hemaught seven
trout on Monday and the smallest was
eight Inches long.

Mr. llarnes, of Plymouth. favored the
report, saying that no state has as
large a limit as seven Inches.

Mr. Vibberts of Wallingford thought
the bill had Its merits and said he was
Indifferent to the action of other
states. \

Mr. Knight. of Salisbury, supported
the report of the committee. .Mr. Aller-
ton. of Middletown, said he had caught
trout twolves inches long in thchfleld
county and Mr. Knight unkindly sug-
gested that they wore suckers. The re-
port was rejected, 76 to 81.

Mr. Higgins then protested against
the passage of the bill. because It
would cut out fishing in Taliaud coun-
ty, and Mr. Vlbberts. of Wallibgford.
said that was a good argument for the
bill. The bill was then passed. .
