MORE INCENDIARISM.

Liberal Application of Kerosene
Yesterday. to a House on Straw-
' ‘ berry Hill.

 

 

Sunday afternoon at 4:30 fire was
discovered in a small outbuilding close
to the dwellingon Strawberry Hill
known as the Cook house, owned by
Raymond Brothers and occupied by
Harlem H. Gorham, a boss painter.
The incendiary had supplied himself
liberally with kerosene Oil, and evident-
ly somethiiiglike a syringe with which
he injected kerosene under the build-
ing and into joints in the wood work
which could not be reached,apparently,
in any other manner. After doing this
he threW‘the remainder of the oil on
the outside of the building, Before
the fire had made much headway it
was quenched by the efforts "of Mr. J.
William Saunders and others living
near by. The incendiary seems. to be
growing bolder in his operations, but
his capture'it is hoped, is only a ques-
tion of time.

<O>
A Hustler.
Hon. James W. Hyatt returned Sun-

 

day morning from western New York, _

where he has been since Friday looking
after manufacturing industries to locate
at Tallapoosa, Georgia. He _'has se-
cured, under Written contract, the
Hayes Chair Co. , of Cortland, N. Y., to.
move their business there and erect a
two story factory, 600 feet long, which
will give employmentto 280 hands. The
factory is to be in full operation within
six months. Also the Howe Ventilating
Range 00., of the same place,willerect
a factory employing 260 hands. Foun-
dry and store roOm to .be 60x250; main
machinery building 60x250; moulding
room 9021300, the factory to be in opera-
tion within 4 months. Also the C. D.
Hiscock Wagon Mfg. Co., employing
600 hands, the factory to cover 10 acres
and be in operation within eight months.
The above industries will bring into
Tallapoosa 1140 skilled workmen. The
factories when completed will extend a
little over three quarters of a mile in

length. The Georgia & Alabama In- ,_

vestment Co. will immediately com-
mence the erection of 250‘cottages to
accommodate the workmen.

HAD HE A' RIGHT TO KILL?

Two Judges of the Supreme Court
Said to Have Rced Affirmativey.
Concerning SOheele, who is senten-

ced to be hung in Bridgeport six weeks

 

hence, State Attorney Fessenden said .

Monday: .

“You know that at Scheele’s second
trial I offered the old._man a chance-to
'plead guilty to murder 'in the second
degree. It has been erroneously sup-
posed that I was actuatedby a desire
to save expenes, to the state. The real

, motive which prompted me was occas-
ioned-bye conference whichI had with
the supreme court.‘ ¥0u_probablyknow
that there was a divis10n of opinion
amon the 'ud'ges as to whether or not
Schee‘ e ha _ .
stablc’s life, the ’attern'ot being armed
with a warrant. for felony. Jud es
Beardsley and Pardee firmly held t at
the officer had. no right to invade
Scheele’s house, when. he -.was. provided
only with a warrant alleging a misde-
meanor. A majority of the court held
and decided the other way, but I
thought it Wise to consult With them
uponthe matter, and it was at their
suggestibn that Pglave Scheele the
chance thatI dida e, as you know,
refused to accept it.

I shall 0'0 before the board of par-
dons, ”and state the facts and circum-
stances just as they are and were.
I will not palliate or condone the of.
tense in any way, nor will I _express
my individual opinion. I believe the
man perfectly sane. TWO juries .of
twelve intelligent men each found him
guilt ,, and I cannot see that there is
the ightestrchance for him to escape
his fate. To secure a commutation of
the sentence, there must be unanim-
ous action by the board of pardons,
the same as by a jury. One man can
block the matter completely. .

Collene—Collins.

Cornelius Collins, a brotherof “ Un-
cle John” Collins of the; American
House in Main street, (who was 'also a
valiant soldier of the. 17tth. Vols. and
nearly killed- at Gettysburg.) died I .re-
cently atl "Towner’s-f‘Station, - N. :",‘Y.,
where he was postmaster. _ He previously
had been postmaster at Tanner’s Mills
in Dutchess county,for nearly 30 years.
He was 70 years of age, and of a family
of three brothers and one sister, all of
whom were born inDanbury, and all
now dead save our good “Uncle J ohn."
The father of ‘ these children came here
from France, with Jerome Bonaparte
in 1803, 'and spelled his name Collene,

in English, Collins. The parents of the
Collins children died when their Ofi‘-.

spring were very young. and they be-
came separated in difi'ercnt parts of
the country and “Uncle John,” the
youngest of 'them' all, now alone sur-
vives,’_‘ 'His health has been quite poor
for-(several years, sOmuchEo that he
had to giveup his hotel business and
- remove to Danbury. But hishosts of
friends will-rejoice to know that he is
sufficiently recovered toresume his
".proprietorship of‘ the “American ”
' where the li" ely DAILr Gut-rm re-
“ echoes the hope that is in every, ,one’s
' heart, that the
. “may live long and prosper.

Old veteran and patriot

BURGLRMRIURER "

The Wilton’Ti-‘hiey‘eSHavea House
-- Full‘oifP‘l’under.

 

Owners Identifying, T‘neir Goods.

Detective Cronin and Officer George
Arnold of Bridgeport, arrived in town
Wednesday “having in custody Henry
Ludington and Dora Conroy. The
prisoners were taken to the oflice of
Attorney E. M. Lockwood and this
afternoon will be conveyed to Wilton
where an examination will be held be-
fore Justice Chichester, Mr.'Lockwood
prosecuting.

For a long time past burglaries and
robberies have been committed in
Westport, Bedding, Easton and Wil-
ton, and about two months ago Detec-
tive Cronin went to work on the case.
Following up a clue, obtained early
in his search, he had reasons for' sus-
pecting two men named Brown and
Ludington, living in Bridgeport. At
3 a-._'.' --., Wednesday, .Dctective Cro-
nin and Officer Arnold went to' Luding-
ton’s'hou'se and arrested him and a wo-
man named Dora Conroy with whom
Ludington had been living and by
whom he has had five children. Brown
escaped. The house was filled with
stolen furniture of every description.

Selectman Ambler of Wilton Thurs-
day went to the house of the arrested
"sneak thieves and burglars, and exam-
ined the mass of stolen property heap-
ed up there like some immense second
hand furniture auction store house.
He found all the goods stolen from the
summer residences of Mr. Charles
Jones, Mrs. .Hickok and Messrs. Ban-
gart and Disbrow of Wilton, all of
which were restored to their owners.

Among other stolen property are
eight pairs of new heavy woolen blan-
kets with the Minneapolis tag on them.
They are said to be worth from $5 to $8
a pair and were no doubt stolen from
some store, as the bale had not been
undone. There is a large new Brussels
carpet, rolled up, that looks as if it had
been taken from some one’s parlor soon
after having been laid. . There is a
roll of nearly new oil cloth marked “C.
Swartz, Bedding Station.” A linen
cufi' was also picked up marked with
ink “C. Swartz.” This would lead to
the suspicion that the residence the
Ex-Sheriff leased in Redding last sum-
mer had been raided.

The heuse occupied by the thieves
and raided by the detectives is situated
in a secluded spot in the northwest
corner of the town of _ Fairfield, near
the Westport line, and is about a mile
southeast. of Greenfield Hill. ‘ The
thieves have lived there for six years
and the building is said to have been
owned at one time by a German living
in Norwalk. Detective Cronin and
Officer Arnold are in charge. They
allowed people to take away such things
as they were enabled to identify.

The officers took to Bridgeport a
number of articles used by the burglars.
Among them were 150 keys of all ”sizes
and shapes that would fit almOst any
lock manufactured. Some of themhad
been stolen and on the checks were the
initials. On a number of bunches were
the initials "‘D. & N.” and had been
stolen from. the .Danbury & .Norwalk
R. R. Co. Another contrivance was
what might be styled an “incendiary’s
friend” or “fire lighter.” It contained
two‘ separate parts connected by tubes.
The upper one was over a foot long and
similar in shape to an egg. It was in-
tended to hold light fuel for starting a
fire which was started by a bellows, the
air passing through the tubes. At one end
was a hole from which the blaze could
be blowed against whatever the . opera-
tor desired to set on fire. Thus when
it was desired to set a house or build-
ing on fire all that was necessary was
to press on the bellows and drive the fire
against the woodwork or inflammable
material. Again when a'lock bothered
them in a few minutes they could burn
it out. The “lighter” is of convenient
size to carry and if it is the invention
of Luddington he is a genius.

The ofiicersalso found 500 yards of
dynamite fuse. It was probably stolen
from a quarry.

An important discovery was that of
an Allen revolver with long barrels,
which implicates Luddington and his
colleagues in one of the boldest robber:
ies ever committed in this Section of
the state. About a year since Col.
Bradley of Greenfield Hill wasaroused
early one morning to find burglars in'
his house. "' y

One of them pointed a pistol at' his
head andpautioned him not to move Or
rheuwould shoot. him. They , then . .took
géverthing valuable that could be‘ car-
:.ried away.- Therobbers fiwore'r’ maSks.

:Whilein‘ the house a ball was dropped

from the Allen revolver. _‘:Wh§n they

left Col. Bradley picked-itfup. IHe

visited Luddington’s house yesterday
and found that it was of the kind used
'in the revolver. Thisis sufficient to
give Luddington a king term .-.at

They are "probably the burglars that
have several times entered the cellar of
our patient friend Walter Fitch, and
stolen his pork, hams, butter, lard,
preserves; pickles, cajkes and'pies, and
who have annually raided his chickens
and stolen them by” the hundreds,

FIRE AT SOIJIII NORWALK. _ .

The Nelson Taylor buildingon the
steamboat wharf, occupied by Builder
Samuel Sherwood and Stair-builder
George Norvell, was discovered to be
on fire, about 8:30 o clock Saturday
night. The bell on the schooner Eva
L. Ferris was rung, and the Old wel
Hook and Ladder company was quick-_
ly at the scene. A few .moments later,
Box 3 on the station platform was,
pulled and the fire department prompt-
ly answered the summons, and in a
short time had the flames in subjection.
When first discovered the fire was on
the first floor occupied by Mr. Sher-
wood, and the flames quickly flashed
upward and the whole front of the
building was a mass of fire which lurid-
ly lighted up the whole pier and near-
by stores, and threatened destruction to
adjoining buildings and the coal sheds
of J Ohn H. Ferris, which was averted
by the prompt and excellent work of
the firemen. Mr. Norvell estimates
his loss at 3500 on which he has an in-
surance with O. E. Wilson for $400.
Mr. Sherwood estimates his loss at
$400 which is covered by an insurance
of $500 with Taylor & Golden. John
H. Ferris’ loss will reach perhaps $200
and is also covered by insurance with
J. M. Layton. There was no insur-
ance on the building. Three chests of
tools' belonging to Mr. Sherwood’s
workmen were saved by Hank Stafi'ord,
who rushed into the burning building
and at great risk pulled them out of
the flames. The fire was unquestiona-
bly of incendiary origin.

—A—T IT AGAIN.

The Incendiary Uses the Kerosene
Can Again, and on the Same
House.

The house on Strawberry 'Hill occu-

 

 

was found to be saturated with kero-
sene and on fire Sunday afternoon,
was again treated to a dressing of ker-
osene Monday. The; discovery was

guished.._.the .;fifre§thdt.;was set Sunday...

Oil-soaked house sat up all night, last
night, hoping to catch the incendiary.
He didn't show up, but if he had it
would have gone hard with him.

A Big Fire.

Wednesday night 11 o’clock fire was
discovered Eby the watchman of Don-
caster’s foundry, in Long Island City,
between'the foundry and a lumber pile
in the lumber yard of H. F. Burroughs.
He quickly gave the alarm, and the fire-
men were soon .On the ground, but
seemed to be powerless to ‘cope with
the flames. ' ..

The foundry was soon destroyed and
the flames spread to Burroughs lumber
yard.

The streams of water cast by the
three steam fire engines, which are all
that Long. Island City own, seemed on-
ly to quicken the flames, and the fire
soon crossed to the hay and feed sheds
of Clark & Sampson, the Whiting Lum-
ber Company on Newtown Creek,
Hummell’s stone yards and Tunis,
Sims & Co.

The fire burned with almost incred-
ible fierceness amid the masses of lum-
ber and other inflammable material,
and step by step the firemen were driv-
en back. Then from other points the
men resumed the attack, only to be
again forced to retire with blistered
hands and faces. It wasiian awful
struggle with a terrible foe.

Next the vessels moored to the docks
on Newtown‘Creek were threatened,
and the brigantine Levi T. Andrews
was pulled out by tugs and towed away
to a place of safety. The brig Teniofi‘
was next towed out. , '

The flames spread to the ~ lumber
yards of McClave &.Co., adjoining the
Long Island Railroad depot, and the
yard of Macintosh, across Vernon -ave4
nue, near the Greenpoint bridge.

The fire is supposed to have been

started .by a spark from a casting which '

had been made just before the shop in
Doncaster’s foundry was closed.
At three a. m. the fire was still raging.

Several casualties had been reported
and the loss was estimated at fully 31,4

.000.

Earlythis morning it seemed as if
the whole city must be blazin close at
hand. 'The tall down-town 'uildings
