South , Norwa’ik’s Water Pipe
Line Threatened-by a Blaze
on Highland Avenue Struc-
ture, Yesterday Afternoon

, .

South Norwalk’s new chemical wag-
on responded to another fire yesterday
afternoon, the call taking it to what is
known at Gainer‘s bridge, in Highland
avenue, Rowayton, and the object be-
Iug to save the bridge from destruc-
tion, and prevent any damage occur-
ring to South Norwnlk's ten incll wat-
er main, which passes over the bridge
to the homes of the Inhabitants of
Rowayton.

Tlle office of the water commission-
ers was notified shortly after 2 o'clock
that the bridge was on fire, and that
steps should be taken at once to pro-
tect; the city’s pipe line. Chief Engi-
neer Winchester was notified and he
called out. the chemical wagon, and
with 'Second Assistant Harold F.
Clark, Richard Creagh, M. A. Ready
and Michael Dougherty want to the
scene. They fou d that the prepared
covering of the p pe, which contained
a bar and felt substance, had caught
fire from sparks from a passing loco-
motive, and that the woodwork on the
bridge was also burning in good shape.
One tank of chemicals was judiciously
used, and the danger of a confiagrntion
was over. Many of the boards of the
bridge were badly charred, and In a
number of places burned through so
that passing over the west side of the
bridge was made dangerous.

The team of horses took the chemi.
cal apparatus and men up the West
street and Roton Hill roads in good
time, being at york on the scene atjust
3 o’clock, fifteen minutes after the call
was sent in. While the firemen were
at work a. switch engine came down
from the South Norwalk freight yard.
having been summoned by the alarm
signal from another locomotive, which
had passed eastward. The train crew
attempted to throw water from the ten-
der to th bring, butthc distance was
too grea , and ”towns finally given
up. The trainm'en, however. remained

Has Only $1,000,000 on Hand
to Meet Bills of$4,000,000——
Cannot Sell Bonds

NEW YORK, August l7.~——Adnlisslon
ls made today that. the city of New
York is hard pressed to pay Its bills.
due to the present tight money market
and as a consequent inability to dis-
pose ot city bonds.

As was feared. the action of contrac-
tors who had taken bonds in payment
for work done by them and who sub
sequently sold them lit the bond mar-
ket below par, has caused a slump In
the sale of city bonds directly to the
public, a method devised by the con—
troller when the financial institutions
failed to absorb the issues.

The result is that one of the richest,
cities In the world is poor, so for as
ready cash is concerned, for the first
time in the memory of living man. It
is said that there in about $1,000,000
on band to moot nearly $4,000,000 of
pressing obligations.

Contractors who have long waited
for their mouoy threaten to quit work
on public inlprovelnellts. find the alt
nation ill this respect ls said to be so.
rious.

Another result of the shortage Ill
cash is that. new contracts, except for
absolutely necessary work. are held
up pending an easement ill the show
iioll. Unless the bonds find a market.
howcvor, illi'l‘c Will be no relief until

ANBONIA, August its-Fifteen cases
of typhoid fever which have developed
in the city, in the past few days,‘have
given rise to fears of an epidemic.
Most of the cases thus far reported
have been found by City Health Olli-
cer Wilmot to be in families served
with milk by a man named Reeves.
Reeves secured a portion of his sup
ply of millt ~ in Samuel Clark, a
Woodbridge ,ener, and pending a
further investigation both Reeves and
Clark have been ordered to discou-
tinue the sale of milk.

The health officials say they have
found that a case of typhoid existed
on the Clark place last winter, but
the trouble is believed to come front
an infected spring or well. Among
those taken III with the disease thus
far are some of the most prominent
people in the city and concern is ex-
pressed thot the malady “will spread
through the entire city.

lti APPLICATION BLANKS

County Commissioners Have
Decided on Additions to Meet
New Law

The commissioners of the county
have been busy preparing the new pn-
pers and application blanks for the
coming license year, made necessary
by the new law passed at the recent
session of the general assembly. Com-
missioner Pcase has had the matter
in hand and he has about outlined
the idea to be conveyed.

There are two very important
statements that the future applicants
will have to make oath to when they
ask for either a new license or a re-
newal. 1n the first they will have
to state that they are the lions-tide
owners of the saloon that It is pro.
posed to license. In the second they
‘will have to swear that there are no
booths, stalls or side rooms connected
with their places.

Then those who sign the applica-
tions have got to afilrm that they are
owners of real estate and pay taxes
on it and that they have not signed

Dealer Af-

 

 

 

 

 

on any other application within a
year.
There is still a question as to

whether the county commissioners or
the town clerks shall keep track of
those who .sign'llquor applications.
Somé‘ or“ the ‘town clerks,”nol.ably
those In Stamford 'and Danbllry, have
said right off that they would llook
after the matter. The commissioners
have been in consultation with others
and some arrangement is likely.

But this will not save the commie»
sloners work, for they, too, will have
to keep a book of records. and the
first work in it will be quite exten-
slvo.

The commissioners have not yet
decided upon what action to take
in regard to the booth and side room
law. There Is to be a conference
with the attorney general in Hartford
on Monday, the board from this coun-
ty being represented by Commission—
er l‘oase, when the entire new law
will be discussed.

The opinion of the commissioners
from this county has been that the
matter should be handled with com-
mon sense and that men who have
places which will take some time to
change. ought. to have a reasonable
chance to do the work. The commis-
sloncrs feel that It is not up to them
to look over the 700 places ill the
county to see whether the law Is
obeyed at this time. They think it is
the duty of the prosecutors and police.
to see that the law is enforced. if
they think that it should be at this
time. When it comes to Issuing new
licenses the board will see that no
application is granted unless the law
is compiled with.

 

 

Unsettled State of Politics in
Patna, and illness of Empress
are Depressing Features

"I‘OKIO. August i7.»~i’rivnte dis-
patches from Pekln fol-coast ll gloomy
fllturo owing to the unsettled state of
politics there. caused by the absence
of a ruling mind powerful enough to
cope with the situation. The empress
dowuger, who heretofore has been solo
mistress of affairs. is now in a critical
state of health. Her policy so far has
been to play one minister against an-
otbcr in order to prevent the conrew
lratlon of power in any single band.
inasmuch as the empress Ill lncnpu~
cltated by an Incurnblo disease and
as the historical animosity of the Milly
aims and wondering is increasing, the
prevailing state of affairs in the Pckln
government constitutes a baffling prob-
cm. , ~ -
Whatever compmmlse'msy be effected
between the progressive Van Silt Kai
and the conservative Changr’l‘u Tong,
there appears: little hope realizing
the complete stability of Pa in autumn
ity no Impcratlvoly necessary to the
integrity of the empire. and the peace
of the Far East in general.

While a fresh guarantee of peace
has appeared in the form of the Rus-
olnndapanese cutouts. peace will be
constantly subject to disturbance until
some decided measures are taken to
reestablish order in Pekin politics.
This. however. is deemed impossible
of accomplishment. so landfill a Man

 

cult and a mandarin survive.

Less Then one M nth's Supply
in the Reservoirs, and the
City will Soon Have to Buy
from South Norwalk

Owing to the continued drought, the
City of Norwalk water department
faces a serious condition.

At the present time the system has
less than thirty days' supply on hand,
though it hopes that before the ex-
piratlon of this period there will be a
heavy downpour. One hard rain would
put the supply In prime condition
again.

Practically the only source of supply
left at the present time is the Crupe
reservoir, which yesterday showed Ill-
dlcatlons of lowering rapidly. At that
time the water was nine feet and three
inches below the overflow. The upper
or Scott reservoir Is practically empty.
Last Sunday it was down two-thirds
and the little left there has been run-
ning steadily since to the Grape reser-
voir, so that no further reliance can
be placed on this quarter.

When full the Grape reservoir con-
tains 62,000,000 gallons. The average
amount of water consumed by the
system is 2,250,000 gallons per day.
The system can be supplied from this
reservoir. therefore, for 27 1-2 days.
The distributing reservoir on Spring
Hill Is good for 2 1-2 more days, bring-
ing the total up to 30 days. '

The water supply of the city is new
lower than it has been for many years,
though old timers remember the year
1879. when the water was turned on
but five hours a day and a man was
stationed at the distributing reservoir
on Spring Hill, to turn the water on
there, ill case of fire.

The water commissioners have al-
ready notified tlle public that water
must not be used for lawn sprinkling
except between 7 and 9 a. ill. and 6
and 8 p. ‘m. City Engineer Charles
N. Wood stated this morning that on.
less rain comes very quickly, it will
be necessary to prohibit lawn sprink-
ling entirely.

Mr. Wood also stated that notwith-
standing the long lack of rain. he does
not believe the South Norwnlk system
to bejn any danger of a shortage. He
said tlle city has. practically unlimited
facilities for obtaining water, and
thought that there is fully 600,000,00i
gallons at the water department's com‘
mand at the present time.

Tile City of Norwalk. he added. has
excellent sources of supply. but the
storage capacity is not large enough.

It is expected that the city of Nor-
walk will begin ‘buylng water front
South Norwalk shortly, unless a cop-
ious ralp,.occllrs.

Three Men, at Point of Revol-
ver, Secured Valuables, bui
One was Caught

PHILADELPHIA, 'Augusi 17.w—'l‘wo
daring hold-ups at the point, of pistols
occurred yesterday ill the crowded
central ‘part of file city, both crimes
being committed by the saute men. H.
C. Norman, who says ho is a stronger.
with two accomplices. entered the of-
fice of D. H. Tolman. a money lender.
in a Chestnut street office building. and
while his ocnfederates stood at the
door, covered two women clerks with a
revolver and took 847, all that he could
find In the money drawur of the place.
Backing off with the revolver still lov«
oled at the terrified woman, he cut. the
telephone wires, and escaped with his
accomplices. When the young women
gave the alarm the men were lost in
the crowds on the streets.

The trio next turned up at a Market
street Jewelry store. Norlultn asked to
one some diamond brooches and us a
salesman laid several before hint, Nor-
mun pointed his revolver at hlln. The
salesman obeyed the command to hold
up his hands and as he did so Norman
started for the door with n brooch.
Another salesman coined him all he
was about to go into the oil—tan and
hold him until a policeman arrived.
Norman's accomplice escaped.

THAT CORN EATING CONTEST.

The. hot corn eating contest which
took place last night. at. lioyi‘il theatre
was a most laughable affair. Ears of
corn were suspended byll string and
the contestants‘ bands were tied. Some
of the contortions which the boys
went through in gettingthfl garnets off

was won by Johnnie Bipk, 'l‘llo otllot-

‘ for citizenship-slicers have been dis.

appointed to findithuttthey would be
unable to obtain their second papers
In time for‘votillg at the coating fall
election unless a special session of the

As yet there has been no movement
towards asking for a special session,
and possibly uo'steps will now be
taken, but it is plictiy sure to be ask-
ed for a year from now when the
presidential stood a is pending,

All the law ndwls no man receiving
second papers in file of 30 days be-
fore the nations election can . be
made a voter. ‘ the’Octobel- term
of the superior c all does not begin
until the middle offline month. and
as all applications must be filed at.
least three months before hearing on
the second paperll, a person desiring
to vote at the fall election must have
application in, March, seven months
before the election.

It has been suggested that the
time of the full term should be
changed, so that it comes In the last.
at September. Ail; there would be
little regular count businessready at
that time the judge would have am-
ple time to hearnll applications for

At the present time there are 38
applications on hand that will be ell.

The changing character of the lm-

The late. cold spring had much to

Paul MncCormac, the wealthy young
New Yorker, who raced his automo-
lllle through Connecticut avenue Tues-
day afternocn with such frightful re-
sult. is still hovering between life and
death at the Norwalk Hospital. His
condition is? still considered very criti-
cal, though it. is apparently a little
better than yesterday.

During the early part of last night
MacCormsc was getting along, nicely,
but he had a. turn for the worse and
had a bad night. This morning he
began to ImproVe again. though he is
very Irrational. He talks almost con-
tinually. and lrratlonally.

His internal injuries are serious and
will be some time, should be live, and
it can not be definitely stated whether
his left leg will( have to be amputated.

An uncle of ,MacCormac, William
Dawson, of New York, accompanied
by the Rev. Newton Hall, pastor of the
Collegiate Church, in Twenty-third
street, New York. came to Norwalk.
yesterday afternoon and called on the
injured man at the hospital. Tile two
men also called at Raymond and Son's
undertaking establishment in Norwalll
and viewed the remains of Mrs. Mac-
Cormack, who had been instantly kill~
ed In the. deplorable accident. The
clergyman said that Mrs. MncCornlac
was a member of his church and he

Ing the afternoon, Mrs. MucCormac'a
colored maid, from the MaeCormac
summer residence at Liberty Hill, near

TRAINED BEAVERS HERE
SOME CLEVER ANiMALS

The trained beavers which have
been exhibited at the corner of Water
and Washington streets for sorera‘
evenings past by .l. Spiegol, of Albany.
N. Y., son of Dr. M. Splegel, proprietor
of Dr. .loues‘ Beaver Oil, have attract-
od much attention from those who
have learned to look upon the beaver
as industry ill all incllrnated form.
They will remain ill the city a few
days more. after which they will go
in Norwalk. where they will be placed
on exhibition.

The animals are housed in a large
metal tank. which so far as Interior
arrangement ls concerned is modeled
as nearly as possible after the beav-
er’s house in his native wilds. The
upper chamber is used as sleeping
quarters. while the lower is filled
with water, access from one to the
other being by means of a stairway.
There are three. beavers in the cage.
Harry. a full grown one. fifteen years
of age, weighing about forty-fch
pounds. while two companions. two-
year-old animals. born ill captivity and
weighing about twenty pounds each.
Harry was trapped ill l‘lritlsh Colum-
bia ten years ago. when Dr. Bpiegcl
started his beaver form In New
York state. From a lllllltll beginning
the farm has grown to quite large
proportions and at the present time
Dr. Spioitoi has five different exhibits
of those animals touring the country
in the interests of his hoover oil.
A branch farm is now conducted at
Coorla. It. C. .

Tho beavers generally raise one lit-
ctr of young a your, three to live be-
ing comprised in ll litter. Wlloll full

and they are dilution] to gnaw off the
bark themselves with their long sharp
