When walking through the woods he
noticed a spot where the earth had
been recently dug up, and it had the
appearance of a grave. He did not
make any examination at the time.
but later it came back strong to his
mind. In the fall of the your 11108 be
was about Darlen. and heard for the
first time of the disappearance of Her-
gamo. There were hints about that
he had been murdered. When he heard
those things he recalled the supposed
grave that he had seen in the woods
several years previous. He. and sev-
eral others went to the weeds and
they dug away the earth, uncovering
a body. He informed the authorities of
what he had discovered. latter he
visited the spot again. accompanied by

several nionths he was searching for

year be heard about the discovery in
the woods between Duriert and Nor-
wulk. He examined the grave with
the officers as mentioned by the pre-
vious witness.

remains were taken from the grave.
He identliicd the shoes that were oiY

Medical Examiner Talks.
Thefflofii inlportlnt. witness of the.
afternoon was the testimony of Medl~
i
l
cal Examiner 1-2. 1.. House, of liarien.
He testified how he was called tip by
th late Coroner lioteu ill September
to last year, and instructed to take
charge of the case. The doctor testi-
iil‘ti how he Wulit out in the Woods
on the night of September it, ut‘t‘tllll-
panied by (‘hief Brennan, of Stam-
ford; Mr. l)onalel|c,0111cer Heifer-
umn and two others. He described
his search iii the woods, until ilnnlly
they cattle to a spot marked by stones.
'l‘hey liiid considerable didiculty in
getting to the. spot. on account of the
thickness of the woods and the thick
underbrusli at places. In order not
to tiisloenie the bones, the witness
said that he took charge of the die
gins. ’l‘he skeleton was tiually tin-
eovered, and first the skill) and then
the rest of the bones were placed in

The next day the doctor and two
assistants went out lit the woods. The

substance inside the ribs of the
skeleton, which he took for the lilies—
1lnes. They had almost turned to
dust inside this mass be found a
shot gun wad am. .32 shot, all in
the space of two inches in diameter.
In his opinion the shot were what is
known as No. (1 shot. in his opinion
the presence of the shot and the wad
in the. body would cause death. He
cold not tell whether the shot was
fired in front or the back, but he
was .sure that the shot was fired into
the body at. close. range, because the
shot found in the intestines were not
scattered, and the wad was in the
body.

FREED FROM THE 105 PACK.
Steamer Mongolian Sails Down the
Coast to Bay Bulls.
ST. JOHNS. N. I-‘., May 2:1. The Ai-
laii Line steamer Mongolian early to-
day freed herself from the lee puck
oil‘ the entrance to St. Julius llnrbor.
in which she had been imprisoned for
two days.
The Mongolian. after releasing Iter-
celf from the lee puck, (lid nottmnke
any attempt to enter St. Johns liar-
bur. ice conditions making such a
course apparently impracticable, The
steamer worked off shore and at b it.
ill. was making slow progress towards
the south through the heavy drift ice.
The heavy easterly swell which set
in last night broke up the ice pack and
enabled the Mongolian to sliakthher
sell free. The heaving nnd grigdlng
began about dark and all night there
was constant commotion iii the great
lleld. the big hergs twisting and turn-
lug, while the pressure on the steamer
was greater than ever before.
Dawn revealed open water within a
few miles of the steamer and a little
later a lead Opened out through which
the Mongolian steamed to comparative
Iy safety.
For the first hour or two it was slow
work as the ice was.still heavy and
continually driving iti on the steamer.
0n getting further off shore the. iioes
opened out more and 8 n. m. in fairly
clear water. the Mongolian swung
around and headed down the coast and
around Cape Spear in the direction of
Iiay llulls. It was thought at first that
the Mongolian might try to run intr
Petty Harbor, five miles south, but
her captain decided to keep on to the
more sheltered harbor of llay Bulls
where it is expected that the Mongol
ian will remain until the mouth of St
Johns Harbor Is cleared of ice.
The weather today continued favor-
able. the wind holding light from the
north with a cloudy sky. The. titer
morneter fell to freezing during the
night. but rose to :18 at 7 a. m.
in shipping circles here the releasr
of the Mongolian is looked upon as
particularly fortunate. as the condi
lions last night Were very lbreatenlnr
and any easterly gale. would have ser
iotisly injured the vessel.

STATE HEALTH CONDITIONS.
———.-
First Biennial Report of the Board Has
Been issued.
NEW HAVEN, May 21.» The first
bieiiiiail report of the (‘onneciicnt
State Board of Health for the period
ending September :10. 1908. says that
during the past twenty years the root-
tallty from tuberculosis has decreased
about 25 per cent. due to better modes
of living and to u more general know
ledge of its Infectious character. in
the case. of typhoid fever, while the
loath rate has not varied greatly dnr»
ini: thc.pust seven years, there has
been a iU‘t‘ill rudticQon In the mortality
is compared with. the preceding :12;
years. In diphtheria there has been a
great decrease since 1889._due to the
pse of anti-toxin and the laboratory
method of diugnosi .
in contrast with t e almost uniform
decline in death rates from infectious
disease there is an. Increase in the
loath rate from ll’rlght'a disease. upo-
p'lexy and cancer. This is explained
by more accurate diagnosis of those
diseases and the fact that these ad»
:ances in surgery and medicine have
so lengthened the duration of life that
many people reach the period of life
when they are liable to those diseases.
The board says that Connecticut
needs a law similar to that of Massa-
chusetts. which makes it unlawful to
deposit sew e. factory waste or any
polluted wat er into streams or rivers
.is Connecticut's main waterways are
already becoming open sewers. The
board says that it is convinced of
the value of Inspection of summer re-
sorts. and will ask the legislature for
tile funds to continue it.
