Axel Johnson, the. celebrated bicycle
rider, who intends to resign his posi-
tion at Councilmairelcct Albert M.

Ponimaii's barber shOp in Washington
street, Saturday, to become Scandinav-
ian reporter on the Bridgeport Host,
,has had many exciting experiences
while riding about the country on his
wheel making novel trips and records,
but none quite so peculiar as one
through which he passed last night.
Axel Is peaceabie and good natured
and was therefore stunned with amaze-
-ment shortly after 8 o'clock, as he
was going home from work, to have a
woman come up to him In South Main
street, near the corner of Ilavilnnd
street, with umbrella poised in her
,right hand. backed up with a decidedly
angry and aggressive expression on
her face, and blurt out, he says:
“You dirty —~— ~—- —— , you're
entirely too fresh." .
Axel was dumbfounded. for he was
totally‘unawarc of the cause of such
an angry outburst and thc licking the
woman evidently desired to inflict.

“Why, woman, what‘s the matter
with you?" inquired Johnson, but he
did not have a chance to wait for a
verbal reply. The feminine right hand
was working overtime with that um-
brella and he grabbed it by the wrist,
In order that it would not put his hat.
at least. out of commission. The. wo-
man still had her left hand in good
working order, and Axel also put his
bicycle-developed grip on this. to'keep
her from bringing it into play. She
turned and twi ”ligand gaVe Johnson
quite a struggl9_v’before he could see
his way clear td make a getaway, but
finally succeeded. and lost no time in
making down South Main street. The
woman did not. follow. ,

1t develo ed that Axel had had his
little (5er once with-ajRoWayton we:
man, Miss Sarah Jack, who has been
very conspicuous about the South Nor.
walk streets for several weeks, and in
the opinion of most people who have
seen her, a woman who should be talk
on care of.

It is understood that she is mentally
unbalanced. Some,time. ago, her ac-
tions were such an to require the at-
tention of the police. though she was
not detained long Iii police headquar
ters. where she was taken to quiet
down. 01' late, though her patrolling
of the business streets of the. city
has caused a great deal of comment.
she has not. done anythingr violent. be
fore last evening, for several weeks.

Mr. Johnson was so affected by the
episode that, he sent, a complaint to
the board of solectmon this morning.

From. what. can be learned today.
Miss Jack mlsttiok Johnson for one
of three young men who had been for
menting her in South Main street.
previous to his passing along on his
way home. It is said that the woman‘s
mind is only temporarily unbalanced
and that at times she is entirely ra
tional. _

Miss Jack is a woman upwirently
forty years' of age. dark haired. and
not a great deal over live feed tail
Of late she has been wearing a brown
suit. has a troubled expression on her
face. and may frequently be seen
mumbling to herself.

A ior interest on His Bonds

 

 

The New England Food Company.
makers of “valra.”a patent break-

fast food, has appeared in the civil
superior court as defendant in an ac-
tion instituted by the Bridgeport
Trust Co.. bemusc ()l’ a failure on the
part of the food concern to meet In-
terest payments on builds it issued.
The trust company is suing as trus-
tee holder of the mortgage, to secure
the bonds of ille company, and' has
Instituted the action at the request of
the bond holders.

The complaint recites that on Oc-
tober 1, 1904. in accordance with a
vote of the. directors of the concern.
the New England Food Company is-
sued $20,000 worth of gold bonds, ox-
piring on October 1, 1819, hearing in-
terest at 6 per cent.. the interest being
payable scmlrannunlly on the first
days of April and October, and the
amount of each bond being $500.
There was a provision also that if the
interest was defaulted for more than
six months at, a time, the. bonds
should immediately become due and
payable.

In order to secure the bonds, the
Bridgeport Trust Company was made
trustee, and to that concern was
mortgaged all the land of the New
England Food Company, in East Nor-
waik. the plant, machinery. boilers,
mixers, rollers, ovens, engines, and. in
fact, all the property of the concern.
All of the bonds were purchased by
Thomas C. Stcarns.

Mr. stearns has not received any in-
terest on his bonds for 1906, 1906, 1907
or 1908, and after therlast payment
of Interest, due the first of this month,
had been skipped, he. made a written
request. of the trustee to bring an ac-
tion which will insure the payment
of his bonds and interest. or will
secure him possession of the property
mortgaged. The action ls returnable
to the November session of the court.

Bad Loans the Cause. oi Collapse oi

NEW YORK, Oct. flit—«Charles W.
Morse, the promoter and financier.
whose has time great. fortune. was
swallowed up in the‘“crash one year

ago, and who. with Alfred H. Curtis,
former president of the National Bank
Of North America, now is on trial on
a charge of violation of the national
banking law, may gt) on the, witness
stand in his own defence today. Cur-
tis already has told the main portion
of his story. and in many instances
sought to place the responsibility for
bad loans upon Morse. Unless his tes-
timony is markedly altered as a result.
of tlie'questionlng which has assumed
the nature of a cross-examination
when court, adjourned last night, by
counsel for Morse, the one time “Ice
King." will have a serious task before
him when he goes on the stand as a
witness in his own behalf. Curtis had
sworn that. Morse was the real con-
trolling form in the institution; that
he. as president. had protested to
Morse against certain acts which he
believed imd endangered the bank's
stability; and that. he himself had nev-
er mnde a dollar beyond his salary as
president of the bank through any of
the operations in connection with the
institution. It was expected that Our-
tis Would be subjected to exhaustive
questioning, today, both by counsel for
Morse, and the attorneys for the gov-
ernment. but there was a possibility
that. this might be. completed, and
Morse called'to the stand before ad-
journment tonight.

When the trial was resumed today,
Mr. Curtis was recalled to the stand.
and was taken In hand by United
States District Attorney Stimson, for
cross-examination.

» In tellin :01 innocent-routes at the
National ank of North America. at
about the time Morse. is alleged to
have ovordrawu his account by $210.-
000, Curtis said many things which
were discussed by the. directors at
meetings of the board were not. enter-
cd in the minutes of such meetings.
While none of these. remarks which
were omitted from the minutes could
have been regarded as material to
themselves, said the witness. undoubt-
edly. as a whole, they influenced the

bank‘s officers hf their" actions. He
said that. Charles Barney and Mr.
Morse were cIOSe friends. They fre-

quently discussed “the ice" situation.
and were optimistic regarding the com-
pany's future. .

Mr. Stimson next took up the liqui-
dation of the. $00,000 Whiting loan
through the purchase by the bank of
2,000 Ice at $.30 per share and the
making of a loan to Mr. Morse of $40,-
000 on the 1.000 shares of copper that
had been put up to strengthen the
original Whiting loan.

Mr. Curtis was asked to explain how
the. transaction improved the situation
of the bank, inasmuch as it had not
received a dollar In cash, nor an addi-
tional share. of stock in the deal. He
insisted that. the 2,000 “Ice" purchased
by the bank from Morse at the 830
per share could have been sold In the
market for ready cash, and the pro-
ceeds would have liquidated the loan.
He thought. that this materially im-
pr0ved the bank's position. The stock
was not sold, however.

Mr. Curtis declared that not until
long afterwards had he known of. the
withdrawalof 900 shares of Copper.
originally put up in addition to the
1,000 shares as collateral on the mak-
ing of the Whiting loan.

Mr. Stimson producod a letter signed
“C. W. Morse, per W."' written in re-
sponse to a notice sent to Mr. Morse.
of the $40,000 loan made on the 1.000
copper. In this letter Mr. Morsc‘ flat-
ly repudiated the “0.000 loan. and de-
clared that the bank had no right to
add it to the loans of $270,000 then
standing in his name in the bank, say-
ing that the bank well knew the con‘
ditlons under which it had been made.

Curtis declared that he was much
surprised. indeed, when he first heard,
through a "third party," that Mr.
Morse had repudiated the loan.

While Curtis was testifying with
reference to these-called J. R. Elliott
loan, which appeared tohave some
connection with the Arizona Smeltlng
Company loan, it developed that. Unit-
ed States District Attorney Stimson.
who is conducting the prosecution in
the present case. was at one time coun-
so] for the bank, and in close business
relation with Morse and Curtis.

"I did not. like the Ariaona Smelter
Company loan, as it was so far away.
and so stated," said Curtis. "Then I
went to the counsel of the bank and
laid the matter before him. He exam-
ined the matter carefully and render-
ed a written opinion. He did not re-
gard the stock as good collateral and
his opinion was against the loan.
