The world is a pretty big territory, but the places on the globe which equal this city in the . amount of traffic in the much sought after bivalve can be counted on the fingers of one hand and there are then some digits to spare. Many hundreds of thousands of dol- lars are invested in the business here and thereonditions of the trade, the set, the storms and many and varied intricacies of cultivating and harvest ing mean a great deal to tho planters The fall season and trade is just in its incipient stage, but the outlook is a bright one and the belief is that , the coming winter will be a decidedly prosperous one. Some of the open ing places have already begun busi ness and it is expected that by lIli middle of the month everything wil, be. in full swing. . The opening plants and establish meats all along the shore have becl undergoing their annual overhauling painting and slicking up and every thing is spick and span, including tm many vessels employed in the trade. Opinions as to the new set differ somewhat, but this effects the futun entirely. set which fastens itself ti the shells this year does not develoi into matured oysters for four 'or fiv< ' years. ' Some dealers cling to theft assertions of several Weeks ago that the set has been a very fine one, tht' best in years, while others are inclin ' ed to the opinion that it is but ordi nary. But whatever the condition 0 the set. the oy “that are helm caught now are ' eautlful'specimens They are hard and fat as pigs am of the healthiest sort—just the Rim that are most sought after. ...,,.., A visit, tothe .various 1 oyster “establishments is well wor ll taking for there than air of business every where. At the mammoth plant of tin Standard Oyster Company it was Still yesterday afternoon: "Trade is rather slow at present owing to thewarm‘wenther. but re ports received today from the west state that it is getting cooler and indl cations are that next week there wil be a. decided increase in business. Tht European trade will not begin anti November. At present we have twen tysflve openers at work. but what business improves we will employ about one hundred inch." There is a unanimity of opinion that the warm weather has been the canal of a little sluckness during the ins ‘. few. days. The Standard Company : made its first. shipment Tuesday, thl first day of the month. The ground of this big concern extend from tin , Norwalk Islands to the westward a: far as Greenwich, while its priuclpa field is between Greenport and Nev ,' Suffolk. The Standard Company doe.- ” not speak greatly in favor of thc' nevi set. On this point. it was said: 5 “Those who planted shells earl) 1‘, have met with fair success, but olt shells left on the ground, with mom dsys' stirring. are about a failure; St the set, we would say, is only fair -' That is our experience and we gues' , that is everybody's. At some location: .'it is better than others." For the benefit of the uninitiated i' might be mentioned that the set an ' the tiny, embryo oysters, in size iron . the head of a pin to perhaps half 1 . dime,~that affix themselves to ihi ‘ shells that are placed for them to ad here to. From this minute size the} ‘ gradually grow until they become fully developed oysters, unlesa destroyed by storms or other agencies. . The Standard Company has a fleet of nine vessels. one, the Standard. be ing the largest-ever constructed pri- marily for the oyster trade. She and her eight sister boats have all been going through a thorough overhauling The others are the Mural, H. S. lsock 'wood, Alice, Petrol,,Curlew, Isa M. Dean and Guess. . The Northport Oyster Company. In corporated, proposes to begin its open ing season the 16th of the month.

The oyster carriers have given a great impetus to the Opened oyster business. The system is now so per- foot that oysters can easily be ship ped. perfectly iced, to California.

The movement is gaining a good' headway in The Nor-walks and much” interest is shown. Dr. Haskell and Dr, Donaldson. who are well up in the work, were present yesterday after- noon and gave interesting talks and explained matters in regard to the or- ganization. The purpose of the people interested is to get. as many members as possi‘ hie. The dues of the organization is but 31 a year, and after enough. money can be secured, it is proposed to erect two sanitariulns in this county. One is to be used for cases that are curable and mild and the other is to be for the incurable cases of the dis- case. This same movement is on foot all over the United States. and ill New York city organizations have been formed. and good work is being done. What. is needed and what is being done is to make the work a county movement. and not of any one or two towns or cities. Besides opening these two sanitar- lums in this county it is proposed to open dispensaries ill each of the larger towns, like Bridgeport. Stamford and hundreds of other places, where a per- son who has but a slight case of ab- erculosls, but which will soon run to all incurable case, can go and receive treatment, without having to be taken to the larger sanitariunl. A prominent physicist) stated today that there is not a place in Norwalk, nor anywhere around as far as that 'goes, where a person can go for this disease. He stated that not long ago he knew of a case of it. and it of com-Se was refused in the hospital as it is everywhere, and the person died with it. The movement should receive the hearty and enthusiastic help of every- body in The Norwalks. The matter will be made realy all international movement. Miss Elsie Hill, of Norwalk, is the chairman ol‘ the membership commit tee. and there are probably about. twenty-five or thirty members in Nor- walk thus far. Another meeting will be llebin the near future when the plans will be further discussed. Everybody inter- ested is welcome to the, meetings.

Jordan, of Boston, ..Ca‘tmly Admits the Murder, ’and Slicing Up of the Body. Preparatory to Dropping Par- ticles Into Long Island Sound BOSTON. Sept. d.-—But a few points in connection with the most horrible and gruesome murder recorded in the annals of crime ill Greater Boston, that of Mrs. Honorah Jadon, an act- ress, who was known on the stage as lrene Shannon. by her husband, Chea- ter S. Jordan, remained to be cleared up by the.pollce today, although the severed portions of the wonlans body were discovered only last night. The confession of the husband to the po- lice, following his arrest after the ac' cidehtal discovery of the mutilated tor- so of his wife in a trunk, which he caused to he placed in a room at. 7 Hancock street, this city, was believ— ed to be a substantial recital of the incidents of the brutal crime, but sev- eral minor details of his confession conflicted with each other, and his story was unconnected ill parts. As a result of his examination by the police officials at headquarters ill this city that night, be disclosed all the apparently important facts in con- nection with the murdcr and new the information which led to the discovery of the thighs and sculped head of the murdered woman, the only parts not cantained ill the trunk at his home at 509 Mdford street. Somerville. lie al- so gives a plausible reason, in a re- mark by his wife which was incited. according to his story, by her belief that he was unfaithful. He stated that following her epithet he struck her, knocking her down a flight of stairs. He claimed that this blow was the only cause by which he is repsohsible for, so far as he. knows, for her death, as following his strlk’ I'lig her he remembered nothing until the next morning, when. on awakening he found her body at the foot of the stairs. At. this latter. time. however, ills wife's neck was slashed from ear to ear. On this portion of his confession. the police place. the least credence, and‘tbeir efforts in today's investiga- tions centered in a search for another stronger motive, while the medical 0x iiIIlIIlt-‘I‘ carefully examined the body for marks of the blow which caused her death. The evidence of the flush Illg of the neck was plain. and it was believed that this caused the woman's death, but Jordan‘s denial of any know- ledge of this not. made the matter one for close attention. .His story of up basin following the blow whick knock- od Mrs. .lordan down the stairs is al— so a point upon which the police have laid particular stress in their instruc- tions to the medical examiner during the latter‘s oxmninntion of Jordan him- self. as it was supposed that he might be a. victim of drugs. This latter idea he deities. Attorney William S. Schar ton, who has been procured for the defense of Jordan, by his brother-in- law, Jesse L. Liverpool, tllc cotton market operator of New York, states that. he already has evidence of Jor- dan's mental derangement several weeks before the murder, and in tilt; case the murderor's insanity may ac- count for some of the lapses in his confession, although. as a whole, it was remarkably clear. Ill anticipation of a pica of not gull- ty when Jordan was arraigned before Judge Butler ill the Somerville Police court, today, the police had arranged to ask for a continuance of the case. while a plea of guilty would mean his committal to the net Cambridge jail, to await a hearing by the grand jury. The court room. which is located on the floor above the jail in the police court, was crowded when Jordan was brought into court. Jordan showed no signs of nervousness, and looked quietly about the room. “You are charged with the murder of your wife. Honorab Jordan," said Judge Butler. “Are you guilty or not guilty?" “I am not guilty, you honor," re- plied Jordan calmly. Counsel for Jordan then asked that the case be continued for one week. Judge Butler granted the motion. and announced that the case would come up for a hearing on Friday next, Sep- tember 1. In order to avoid the crowd, the oitl care who had brought Jordan into the court room, escorted him out through a rear door, along a corridor and downstairs to the hill, where he was placed in a cell. * SILVERMINE LAWN PARTY.

Internal commerce move- ments, says the report, continue to show improvements over the preced- ing months of the year. There is a considerably heavier live stock nibve ments, reported for the seven months ending in July than for the corres‘ ponding periods of either of the two immediately preceding years. Grain receipts for July increased over the preceding month, and also over July of last, year. Lumber alld coal move- ments, as well its the production of iron continue to show marked advan- ccs over the preceding months of the year, although the total is still below the heavy figures of July, 1907. More than 70 per cent. of the report- ing car associations show gains over tin; prI-(‘Pdlng months of the current year. With rcturns from 45 leading cities, the building operations for July show- ed improvements. a small gain over the remarkably large business of July of last year being reported, Trunk line, grain shipments of “£333,000 bushels for July largely exceed those for July of last year, the grain also showing gains for the 31 weeks ending with July. The cast bound trunk line movement of provisions during the 6 Weeks ending with July. 97.057 tons. while Ill excess of a like period of June, fell below the figures for the corresponding period of 1907. Packing house products, receipts of southern pine at New York, pig iron and other productions showed gains over the, preceding months.

The increase over the June figures is largely due. to the one million ton in crease in shipments of bituminous coal. . MR8. MEAD'S SCHOOL.

One thing is certain, he will always. for the remainder of his time on earth. be absolutely paralysed item the point of injury. about the middle of the back, to the tip of his toes. At the time of the accident, Rob and several other men were engaged ill unloading a carioad of ice from New Hartford.
