Walk railroad station. arid there noti-
fied the employees. Medical Examiner
Huntington was sent for, and be arriv-
ed about 6:30 o’clock, and gave as his
opinion that the man had been acci-
dentallyvkliled by a train. and he gave
Undertaker D. W. Raymond permis-
sion to remove the remains. The vic-
tim had the appearance of being a la-
borer. He was dressed in a black
shirt, with white stripes, white under

, short, faded dark brovt'n coat and
trousers. with heavy shoes and brown
socks. There were no marks on the
clothing by which the man could be
identified.

[struck by one of the westbound mid-
night trains. as the greater portion of

riding on a freight train and dropped

' asleep and fell off, the train running
over him. ‘ 4

Desks Ordered Last Ally for
August 15ih Have Not Yet
Arrived. and concern Writes
That a Mistake Was lads
and They Will Have is Is
Alade Over

The Norwalk high school building
committee held a meeting last night
in the parlors of the Norwslk Club.
and it was found that after all their
hard work and efforts to have the
school open on the 8th day of Sep
tember, as the others do, it will be
quite impossible, because of the fact
that the concern of which the desks
were ordered have made some kind of
a mistake and will not be able to deliv-
er them in time.

The committee deserve much credit
for their work. and: have succeeding
in doing their part. 'inasmuchu the
building will be completed by the
opening date, and now all the plans
are knocked in the head by the delay
in the furnishings.

When the contract was made for
the 325 regular desks and 50 common
cial desks. they were to be delivered
at the school without fail by August
15. The contract was made on May 6.
and it would seem that this should
have been time enough for a concern
of this size and reputation to have
turned out that order many times
over.

liut in last night's meeting a letter
was read fro. the concern that was
very indefinite. it did not state why
the desks could not be delivered. but
Mr. Golden has gone to their New
York office today, and will find out the
reason.

The whole building is practically
completed. except for the ties s. The
carpenters are finishing up i e odds
and ends. and will probably be through
within a day or so. The plumbing is
also about completed, and the electric-
ian is through, with the exception of
making the outside connections.

The telephone, electric clocks, and
the modern fire alarm system are com-
pleted, and it may be said beret t
the firsslarm’system is among t o
finest in the country. The telephone.
the fire alarm. and‘ all the electrical
work all operate from the same but,-
tery. and in that way it will be known
the instant anything goes out of (mut-
mission.

in all the halls and rooms there is
a fire box. and by taking a small haul-
mor which is suspended beneath each
one and breaking the glass. the alarm
is tamed in, and the boil rings in ev-
ery room, as well as turns in the big
alarm.

The seats for the assembly room,
which come from another firm, are al‘
ready at the school. as are the teach-
ers‘ and principal's desks.

The committee of course is unable
to give any estimate as to when the
school can be opened, as in the letter
it was stated that the desks had to be
made over again.

if a place could be fonttd where a
supply of gorrd desks were in stock. it
is possible that the committee would
purchase them. and let the other con-
cern alone in the future.

The committee dr-ply regret that
this unlocked-for thing has happened
to place them in such a position, and
they are looking around today to see
if it will be possible to start. the schol-
ars in their old quarters itntil the new
school can be fitted out with the desks.

specter McCalfcriy, of the New York
Detective Bureau. telephoned to Su-

found Galvin in New York city, and
would hold hitn until steps were talc

Galvin, alias Collins. figured in the
sensational swindle in which Holznag-

confidence game of Condor, one of the
ntost succesful swindiers in the coun-
try. as the prise fighter on whom Heir

There seems to be quite a little
been on in The Norwalks just now, in
the automobile garage business. Two
new ones are to be started Just as
soon as arrangements can be made.

Former Superintendent Wilham C.
Facts of the South Norwaik public
schoo s, is interested in one of these,
and with him in the enterprise are
Theodore S. Glover, of Winfield street,
East Norwaik. and Stuart Youngs, of
South Norwaik. Mr. Glover is the ma-
chinest, and was formerly master me-
chanic at the Yale and Towns plant
in Stamford.

Negotiations are under way for the
leasing of a part of Luther M. Wright's
building at the corner of North Main
and Union streets. if the lease is
consummated, the plan is to entirely
remodel the place, put down a con-
crete, door, and have a first class es-
tablishment for repair work, new our
agency and dealing in second hand
machines. The new concern expects
to hattdle the 1909 models of the Max-
well, Northern and Wayne companies.
Falling in securing the Wright build-
ing, they have their eyes on the roller
skating rink.

The other new garage will probably
be put tip by Dr. William J. Tracey
and Frank J. Donahue. on their joint-
Iy owned property at. the corner of
West avenue and Orchard street. Mr.
Donahue said this rnornlng that he
and Dr. Tracey were in earnest, and
that they expect to erect the garage
as soon as the arrangements can be
made. Their plans call for the most
pretentious etablishment of the kind
ever attempted here. They already
have their plans partially completed.
Both are very enthusiastic, and be-
lieve there is a good opportunity for
them In the line. Mr. Donahue propos-
es to manage the business. be having
no business cares such as occupy the
time of Dr. Tracey. Their idea is to
have a concrete structure. two stor-
ies in height. with all the machine
work to he done on the second floor.
an elevator being arranged in the
plans, to take the cars up. in this
wtl‘y they figure on having the first
floor a very neat and desirable place
in which to store cars and for the of-
fice. They are also confident of srt-
tlng the agency for several first class
cars. '

Central Railroad detectives investigat-
ed today what they suspect was an at-
tempt to wreck the Chicago Express
in a cut. at. Hyde Park near Fough-
lteepsle, N. Y., last night. A milk train
which entered the cut lust hetero the
express was due ran into a pile of
ties which blocked both tracks and
the locomotive threw the tics from its
pathway.

Around the curve less than a mile
down the track the rumbling approach
of the Chicago Express could be heard
running at top speed in an effort to
make up lost time.

Tralnmen swung the ties to one side.
and when the headlight of the express
flashed into the cut the way was clear
ahead and the train dashed by on-
harmed. , .

That the men who placed the ties
on the track were interrupted by the
milk train Is believed from the fact.
that five ties were on the uptrack and
only two on the other, indicating that
their preparations were not completed
when the milk train approached.
