The desperadoes’ career of terror
started on Tuesday night. by the
“shooting up of the saloon of Winter-
ston and McManus, on Washington
street, Jamaica Plain. Shortly before
the closing hour, when the bnrroom
was full of men, three men, apparent-

found that Frank J. Drake had been
killed, Patrick Daren had received a
bullet in the abdomen, and Thomas
Winterston had been shot at the base
of the skull and in the left arm.

The police of the city made a care-
ful search all night long, without re-
sult. Early yesterday two of the men
made their appearance at a house on
Rooms. street, and at the point of a
revolver demanded that they be. given
food. Later they were seen in Cal-
vary Cemetery, but they eluded the
officers. Throughout the rest. of the
dpy there was no report of any one
having seen the dosperadoes.

About 7 o'clock last night they were
discovered in Calv ry Cemetery.

When the deans adoes found that
they were so closely pursued, they
drew their revolvers, and with a yell,
began firing on all sides. The first
persoh hit was Mrs. Delia Fallon, Who

. was walking down South street. Officor

Ingliss then received a bullet in the
leg. ,The men passed through Cun-
ningham.field, Lee street and onto
New Reyes street, down which they
ran directly into Washington street.
0n Washington street, where electric
cars are passing almost incessantly.
and hundreds of people were standing
about the corners, the two men yelled
at the top of their voices, and fired
shot after shot from‘ their automatic
revolvers. They commanded every-
body to hold up their hands, and even
ordered the motorman of an approach.
ing car to stop. The motorman drop-
ped behind the dashboard, and the
conductor, Thomas Moore, who step-
ped off the our to see what was the
trouble, received a bullet in the leg.
Michael Flynn picked up a stone to
hurl at the bandits, and received one
bullet in the head Over the right ear,
and another struck over the left ear,
knocking off his hat, Patrick McGlinn
was shot in the riot, Thomas Flem-
ming In the hand, and John Nolan re-
ceived a bullet in the arm, while John

surprised to learn last night that the
reservoir supply had not been Increas-
ed by the great amount of rain which
fell Tuesday night:

All the brooks and streams about
here were swelled, as was the Nor,
walk river, and they expected that a
large amount of water went into the
reservoir, but official measurements do
not show that to be the case.

There was practically no water run
into the Scott storage reservoir, and
yesterday morning when the men wont
to work t Grupe‘,s the water was
measured, and was found to be just
one inch higher than before.

It was rather expected that the
streams would continue to fill and
Well all day. but last night at quitting
time it was again measured and the
inch was gone again. leaving it the
same as before the rain.

It was stated frfm the water com-
missioners' office that practically no
effect was felt at the reservoir, as us-
ually the water is used at the rate of
seven or eight inches a day. Yesterday
it went down between six and seven
inches.

It evidently did not rain much on
the water sheds, and through New
York state. and the people are wish-
ing that a _litle portion of what fell
here would have been up in that
vicinity.

There was of course some rain last
night. and what this will do is not yet
known.

ter, Mrs. Frederick hi. lanes,
East Norwalk

A sad and tragic accidental death

befell Mrs. Matilda Coleman about
1:40 this morning, when she fell down
the front stairs at the home of her
daughter. Mrs. Frederick M. Jones, at
10 Cove street, East Norwalk.

Dr. Frederick ll. Baker was called
with all possible haste, but by the
time the physician arrived, life was
extinct. Mrs. Coleman never having
recovered consciousness. She ceased
breathing within four or five minutes.
though everything within human pow-
er was done to revive her.

Dr. S. H. Huntington, the town med
ical examiner, on account of the na-
ture of the case. was summoned, and
he gives the causeof death as frac
lure of the cervical vertebrae, or brok-
en neck.

Mrs. Coleman is survived by six
children. 111 addition to Mrs. Janos,
these include Miss Bertha Coleman,
of East. Norwalk; Frederick ll. Cole»
man. the South Norwalk stationer and
newsdenler; Theodore Coleman, of
Fall River. Mass: .lohn Coleman, of
New Milford, and Charles E. Coleman.
of 10 New street. East. Norwalk, with
whom she resided.

Mrs. Coleman was visiting Mrs.
Jones for a short time when the un-
fortunate accident, which is deeply
regretted by a large number of friends,
occurred. Just the circumstances of
her fatal, fall will probably never be
fully determined.

Yesterday. Mrs. Coleman was in
good health and when the family re-
tired last night was in 1111 unusually
cheery mood. in fact, she exchanged
a number of jokes otteréall had re

 

 

open on account of the. hot weather.
The household was next awakened
and startled by her fall down the front
stairs. She was picked up by Mr.
Janos. who found her Just breathing.
Neighbors also kindly came to the
assistance of the family.

One theory is that she had gotten
up from bed to get a drink of water
and made :1 mlsstep as the top of the
stairs. Dr linker thought it quite pos-
sible tlrnt she lrnri adhered a stroke of
paralysis. About a year ago Misfit‘oie-
man had several dizzy spells and it is
now thought. that they may have been
caused by a slight stroke.

Mrs. Coleman was a heavy woman.
making her fall a severe one but the
only outward indication of her injury
was a slight bruise on the fore end.

ller whole family has been lunged
into deep grief by the unfortunate 11c
cident.

Mrs. Coleman was 71 years of age
on January ill. She was the widow of

'- the late Theodore Coleman.

Funeral services will be, ht'IId Sat
urday afternoon at 2:30, from the
honre of Mr. and Mrs. Janos. The Rev.
Charles M. Sellct‘k will oiliclnte and
interment will follow in Norwnik cem-

COUNTRY CLUB.
Mid-week Dance a Success—General
Layout of Grounds Nearly Com-
pleted—Other Improvements.

T ere was a large attendance at
the Country Clrrb. last night, at its
first mid-week dance, many out~of~town
guests adding to the gaicty of the oc-
casion. Speldel's orchestra provided
the music and played with their usual
acceptability, were very liberal in their
responses to enthusiastic encorcs, and
11 o'clock came all too soon for the
merry dancers. The regular dance
will take .place Saturday night to item

The general layout of the. grounds
of the club is about completed, having
been most satisfactorily rrrade by
Finch Brothers, of East Norwalk, who
have not only pleased the committee
having the work in charge, but have
been highly praised by the club mem~
bership generally. The recent rains
have placed the earth in conditlorr for
seeding, which will probably be done
today. and under favorable conditions
grass may be expected soon. when the
beauty of the general design of the
layout, under the ungineership of Sam
uel W. Hoyt. Jr., will be more appar-
ent. in the house a plate rail has
been placed around the dining room
and surmounted with appropriate dec
oratious. Electric fans have been so
located in this room as ,to very mark
edly reduce the temperature when
necessary. At an early date screens
will be placed in this .roorrr and in
the kitchen. A rearrangement of the
pictures adds to the attraction of the
general assembly room. Under the
direction, of Mrs. Carl A. Harstrom
the general interior of the clrrb house
has been very much improved by the
artistic arrangement of the decora-
tions.

BRIDGEPORT IAAII
TOUII HIS‘OWII LIFE

George L. Buiteriield Was in
Poor Health and Wes Stay-
ing with Friends in Westport

WESTPOIIT, July 23,-«Georgo 1..
Butterfield, cashier of the Untied il-

luminating company, and secretary of
the Park City Yacht Club. of Bridge-
port, committed suicide by shooting
himself through the head Tuesday nf~
ternoon at Westport. Death was in
stantaneous. His body was not dis-
covered uutil some time after the
shooting.

Mr liutterfield had been in poor
health for a long time. suffering much
of late and it is supposed that pain
drove him to take his own life. He
had given no intimation of his intend-
ed act. and the news of his suicide
came to his friends as a thunder-clap.

Overwork was the cause of NIL-But-
tertieid's illness and he was on s. vaca-
tion, staying with friends in Westport.
He was a'ldne for a while Tuesday af-
ter noon and aparently on the spur of
the moment, shot himself through the
head. He left no farewell message of
any kind and the discovery of his body
shortly afterward was an astounding
and horrifying affair for the other in-
rnptes of the house.

Mr. Buiterileld was a man of about
middle age and had resided in Bridge-
port for the greater part. of his life.
making many friends throughout the
city, all of whom will be greatly shock-
ed to hear of his tragic death. For 19
years he had been employed by the
United illuminating company in an
important position, and was a popular
member of the Park City Yacht club,
holding the office of secretary.

Mr Buiierfield was no bachelor and
boarded at 60 Park street, Bridgeport.
