NEW PROCEDURE IN WILSON
CASE.

'Point Passed on by the New York Au-
thorities Makes a Precedent.

BRIDGEPORT, August 8.——Wben
Annie Wilson is arraigned before the
local city court on August 24, on the
charge of being implicated In the theft
of $800 from the You Poo Low restau-
rant in this city, a new course of pro
tiledure will be tried by the prosecu-

on. .

Incidentally the local authorities
are much rejoiced in securing the we.
man's extradition from New York,asa

 

inew precedent has been established,

which may be very useful in the fu-
ture to Connecticut authorities in ex-
traditlng prisoners from New York.

It is alleged that the Wilson wo-
man accepted 3600 from Joseph Lee, a
Chinaman, who is said to have robbed
a local eats of $800. The only witness-
es against the Wilson woman will be
Police Captain Kane, of the 18th dis-
trict station in New York, and Lion-
tenants McLaughlin and Miely, of the
New York Central ofilce.

To these men Mrs. Wilson is said

.to have made damaging confessions

concerning the money which she is
said to have secured as her share of
the safe rubbery.

in endorsing Mrs. Wilson’s extradi-
tion, Recorder Golf, in New York. de-
cided that the Connecticut method 'of
issuing warrants through an empower-
ed prosecuting attorney would hold
good in New York state; although the
only method of issuing such warrants
there is through a grand jury.

it was on this point that Mrs. Wil-
son's‘lawyer in New York fought her
extradition, and held up proceednigs
for a month. Now that a precedent
has been established. the Connecticut
authorities do not anticipate any more
such trouble.

Mrs. Wilson was arraigned in the
city court, this morning, and through
her counsel. Attorney Frederick A.
Bartlett. secured a continuance until
the 24th under bonds of ".000.

suing year. He said the nominating
committee had held a session and has
prepared a list of names for officers.
which was then read by Congressman

Curtis, L. C. Green, Horace E. Dana,

Mr. Hill stated that these nomina-
tions had been made unanimously. and
a motion was made and seconded that
the report of the committee be swept
ed. thereby electing them as olllcers
for the ensuing year.

Toastmaster Wheeler then thanked
those present for their attendance.
both for himself and in behalf of the
association, and told oi the good of
the organisation.

He stated that he had hoped to have
Congressman-at-lorge Llllcy, and also
Congressman Cockerham. of New
York. present, but be read letters from
each of the gentlemen expressing their
regrets that other business engage-
ments prevented their attendance.

Mr.'Wheeler slated. however. that
they were fortunate to bare the other
noted speakers present, and amid
great applause he introduced Goverv
nor Woodruff.

Mr. Woodruff made a nmch apprec-
iated address. which was listened to
with great interest. lie stated that
in the past two years he had talked
to many meetings of this nature. and
had talked to all classes of people.
but the class which he liked to ad-
dress best was the business men. be-
cause. he stated, he was a. business
man himself.

He said: “This is the first time i
have had a chance to come to Norwalk
since I was elected governor of Con
nectlcut. but Norwullr is not new to
me. i used to come here many years
ago and sell goods."

lie stated that each time ire camr
here he always walked from South
Norwalk to Norwalk because hc
thought West avenue was one of-tbe
prettiest streets in the state. He then
told. of the good of business men's as
socialions and. in his remarks told oi
a western town which spent $20,000
in a year just to advertise the town
and he thought It would be a good
thing for some of the New England
places. ,

He stated that government was but
a business proposition and that the
recent hard times were due in his
opinion to careless legislation. “We
have let corporations have rights
which they ought not to have. i be
lieve in public corporations. but they
should be restricted by law. and made
to live up to them. Corporations should
be conducted on a sound money basis.’
continucd the governor. “and watered
stock ought not be allowed. He hoped
that a public service commission
would soon be established in Con-
necticut. Governor Woodruif then ex-
plained by a commission and when
he, closed his remarks there was loud
applause.

Mr. Wheeler proposed that every
one arise and give three cheers for
Governor Woodruif. and the responst
was a hearty one.

Toastmaster Wheeler then lntroduc
ed Lieutenant Governor Everett J
Lake. and he. like his predecessor, in
stantiy won great favor. and he gavt
a number of good jokes, for which he
is famous. He then spoke on busi
ness associations, and fully endorsed
the holding of their meetings. at which
the good of the towns represented is
talked over and freely discussed. He
said they were nearer to the old town
meetings which were held years ago
and which in these years have lost
all their spirit. as individuals have at
say in their doings at the present day
A man is put up from the Democrats
and from the Republicans. We must
vote for one or the other. and that
is all we can have to say.

Mr. Wheeler then introduced E. J
Hill in glowing terms. Mr. Hill open
ed his talk with a few introductory
remarks. as is his usual custom. and
the attention of his listeners was held
from his first word. until the last.

He said he had been thinking as to
what subject to speak on and he decld~
ed that the business line of the Unit
ed States was the thing which might
be interesting to the gathering. HC
said "We have not had just the kind
of times which we like; we have been
through a business panic." He went
on.to say that it had not been Just in
the United States, as some people
supposed, but all over the world; to
use his words. "a world-wide business
panic."

He said at the time the panic broke
out in this country. he was in Egypt.
and he and Mr. Bishop had engaged
a man for two weeks to take them
through the country, and they asked
him if he would be willing to forfeit
the two weeks' contract. and he said
he would. as he wanted to get to Paris
to draw his money from the banks
So the United States was not the only
place where the money was drawn
from.

it was not the past the-men present
wanted to know. but. the future, he
stated. and he had made an investiga
tion into the matter. The future but
look was very bright. He stated that
the panic of 1894 was tifferent than at
this time. Then, he said, there was
no money in the country. We were
in debt to Europe for $18,000,000 for
trade. etc. A few days ago our credit
in Europe as balance of trade was
$666,000,000. which at e an enormous
dilierence‘in our coun y.

He stated that when the fiscal year
opened July 1, we are new in th(
year of 1909. and have a very favor
able situation before us. He said:
"Never have we had so much money
in the country, nor have the banks
been so well off. There is 8889.000,
000 for bank reserves in the country."
Besides these figures. he stated. the
crops for the coming year were at
good or better than ever before, and
with much higher prices. and this was

 
 

1'03

lars. He said there was no reason
why the country should not come for-
ward with times Just as good as ever.
Continuing Mr. Hill said: “We our-
selves are to blame for the. panic
which we haVe just passed through:
We were spending money faster than
we made it. There is only one small
drawback to the present situation. and
that is the $200,000,000 shortage in
the government treasury. caused by
the panic." ,

He said the appropriations and es-
timates for the running expenses of
the United States are now being made
up for 1910. but when they were made
up for this year. the panic was not
counted on, and consequently the.
shortage. He spoke of Connecticut.
and said that Congress had to cut our
appropriations and cut to the bone.

Congressman Hill told of the rural
free delivery system. and stated that
in 1898 he begged to get 850.000 for
an experiment in this line, and finally
he got a route started In New Canaan.
and he said today there are 38,000 sim-
ilar routes in the United States. The
cost of these is $35,000,000. and is paid
for by the rural routes by two-cent
stamps. Another fact that many peo-
ple do not realize is the- number of
carriers in the country. and Mr. Hill
stated there were 25,000 of them in
the service.

He gave many other increases and
told the reason for the increase. one
of which was the pension bill, with an
increase of $17,000,000 this year. He
spoke of the n which has an in
crease of $24. . . and be said we
now have the third best fleet in the
world. Great Britain has the best.
France second, and we are third. lie
said that we want second place. (Ap-
plause). He said that we arc now add
lug two battleships n vow to our
fleet. which cost. 810.0000'0’) each
which of course accounts fm- much of
the money. The army. with an in»
crease of 817000.000 and its 03.000 en-
listed men. is another big source of ex.
pense.. Mr. Hill gave many more fig-
ures in regard to. tlm flunrnnsof the
country which sniprlsed a large num-
ber of people ‘pr nt.

He then dwolton the federal gov-
ernment. and ita‘right to do certain
things. lle snid‘thorc wurc hundred
of bills each year and petitions to have
the federal government build high
ways, stop child labor. grant a federal
automobile license which would take
the cars all over the United States.
and various other things, all of which
the federal government has nothing to
do with. as they are all purely matters
of the state. ‘

Mr. Wheeler stated that he would
like to have other speakers for the
evening. but owing to the fact that
Governor Woodrulf wished to retum
to New Haven. the affair would have
to be cut short.

All arose and sang “America." and
a talk followed on the veranda of the
house. A, special jumbo trolley car
left there with all the guests in it
for Norwalk at 10:45.

ty sheriff for the town of Westport

are bobbing up serenely at every turn.
Just why the impression-has gotten
out that Fred Kemper will not seek
reappointment is not known.

The W. T. l. A. decided to 'lay a con-
‘crcte walk on imperial avenue with
tho cooperation of the residents of
that vicinity. The activity of these
ladies ’in town improvement projects
results in rmrch good. Evidences of
their disinterested work is seen in
every part of the town.

Constable Hezekiah Allen has suc-
ccodcd in paying for the house he re-
cently bought from the town. After
offering the money to the sclcctmen
and being refused, he went to the town
treasurer. W. E. Osborn. and tender-
ed the price of the building. which
Mr. Osborn accepted and gave a re-
ceipt therefor. This probably ends the
incident.

The building on the site of the new
town hall is rapidly disappearing. Jo-
seph Morton, with a force of men, is
doing the work. The building was in
much better condition than any one
suspcctcd. and the frame is as good as
it was the day it was erected. Heze-
kiah Allen. who purchased the build-
ing, has been unable to find any one
who is willing to take the pay for the
building. and is holding it subject to
the orders of the sclcctmen.

E. T. Redford is having a ditch dug
on his property in Greens Farms.
which is expected to drain a large
section which has heretofore been a
marsh or swamp. The ditch is six
feet wide, and runsfrom the tumpikc
through the low lying land, and con-
nects with the Sound through the reg-
ular waterways. Adjoining property
owners will benefit by the ditch. be
cause it will carry off the water
that stands on the land in the vicin-
lty after every rain.

State Highway Commissioner Mac-
Donald passcd through town, Wednes-
day. in his motor car, and was greet-
ed by his many friends here. He in«
sists that the place to spend the state
appropriation is on the main road.
This will complete a link in the eye
tern of state roads, which will eventu-
ally extend from Greenwich clear
across the state. The gravel road re-
cently built from Bulkclcy's garage to
Maple avenue gave him much satisfac.
tion. lie regards it as a good read,
and a bargain at the price.

Dr. McArdle's trotocr. is ry much in
love with the horse. on account of
her line showing. He has been work-
ing her at the Bedford track in
Greens Farms. and every one who has
seen her go is enthusiastic. The colt
Dr. McArdle recently sold to Bridge-
port parties has made a fine showing,
and horsemen here are sorry that she
was allowed to leave the town. in a
trial heat. yesterday. the bark did the
mile in 2:25; the half in 1:10 and the
last quarter in 34 seconds,‘ a feat
which no one believed she would ac-
compllsh.

Contractor Oscar Smith 'has put in
his bid for the new town hall. He is
within the appropriation. butssays“ if
he gets the contract he will..dtrvthe
work, but considers that hev‘wlil‘be
lucky if he does not get it. it isrevi-
dent that the term will gets l0”

who have looked over the Plans and
specifications, say that it will require
close figuring to keep within the lim-
it made by the special town hall com-
mittee. The architects, Brown a; Van
Baron, of New Haven. have planned
for a line structure which will be a
credit to the‘town. ‘

The recent storms have done more
damage than any that have visited this
section in year's'. Wednesday's show-
er was a veritable cyclone. it uproot-
ed trees. broke telephone and tele-
graph wires and tore up the 'town
generally. in the outlying districts
the corn fields are laid Just, and the
damage to crops cannot be estimated.
Trees falling across the tracks pre-
vented cars from rpnning on the trol-
ley lines. and for.several hours com.
munlcatlcn with neighboring towns
was cut off. A bl locust tree, over
four feet‘ln diame r, which stood in
front of the Bulkeley place at Turkey
Hill, was blown across the tracks.
and blocked the whole road until it was
removed. An elm in the yard of Wil-
liam Staples. at the corner of Compo
and State streets. was blotvn down.
toking with it several yardage! earth.
which covered the,roots. This tree

HOW TO GET ON TRAINING SHIPS

 

Rules Regarding Residence Are Not
Hard to Comply With.

A number of inquiries have been
resolved lately as to how boys can
secure cadctships on the U. S. train-
ing ships. The information is for that
reason givcn herewith. 'l‘hc Newport,
whch has replaced the St. Mary's Is
is largest of the school ships. She is
directly under the direction of the
board of education of the city of New
York. and to get a cadctshlp on her it
is necessary to have a residence in
New York city.

This is not as much of a diiiiculty

s'ron STORE?

 

as it would seem at first. and, like

 

i

most all similar rules, is easily com-
plied with. The usual procedure for a
boy from another city of state is for
"'“ ‘0 have a New York lawyer act
as his guardian, which meets the re-
quirements of the residence rule.

After. the residence clause is com-
plied with, about all that remains is to
signs the necessary papers. With the
other school ships it is the same, the
only difference being that of course
residence not in New York. but in
whatever city the school ship is con-
trolled, is necessary, for instance, the
school ship controlled by the Boston
Board of Education requires a resi-
dence in Boston from a boy desiring
to secure a cadetship.
