the Supreme court today. The action
is brought by Whipple, Sears 8: Ogden,

the company.

The suit, in which the attorneys re-
cently demanded that the directors
join. is designed to force restitution
from those responsible. of funds sl-
leged to have been illegally expended

Judge Brady issued an order of no-

STAMFORD, July 17.-—-Mrs. Helen
M. Angle, who is held without bail
pending the outcome of the coroner's
inquest on tile death of Waldo n. Bal-
lou which occurred the latter part or
last month, collapsed in her quarters
at the local lockup last night and is
now in such a nervous condition that
her physician, Dr. J. H. Stanb. has
strongly advised her immediate re-
moval to a sanitarium. Mrs. Angle
spent a good part of the day with
her father. Leonard Biondel, in the
office of the chief of police. '
in the evening she was taken back
to her quarters and her father left
lfor dinner.

I Later he returned to the lockup
Iand on going to his daughter's quar-
ters he said he found her hing on
the floor. She apparently did not

 

recognize him and one of her arms:

bore a mark as if she had bitten it.
Dr Staub was called and said she
must be placed in a sanitarlum at
once. As this could not be done last
night. a trained nurse was secured to
spend the night with her

Cartoonists and editors of laughter
should have been in the town court
this morning, for there abounded
many side splitting situations worth
reproduction. Louis Teick was the
humorist of the day. and he was up
before Judge 1-1, Iii. Lockwood on the
charge of breach of the peace. His
wife testified, through (an interpreter.
that he was intoxicated yesterday and
alter chasing his daughter out into
theistreet. proceeded ‘to pummel her
with his fists. She fought back in
seit‘ldefense, she said. and brought an
iron‘collender into play with the re-
sult that Louis exhibited evidence, by
marks on his head. that she aimed
well. Louis took the stand and said
that when he is out of work. he takes
to drinking. The judge inquired of
Mrs. Teick,if she would wint her
husband sent to jail, and he received
an. emphatic “No." The court then
suggested that Louis take the pledge
for a month. Louis cannot understand
English sery ’w,eil and either he mis-
understood the judge, or was mer-
011an with remorse. for he said he
would spear off for three months. The
court made him take the oath 'for
that time. and susppnded sentence,
continuing his case from day to day.
