 Superior, Court-Crimtnal side-Judge
 ,,.-. Granger.
 This court with jury came in yesterday af- ternoon at ? o'clock with Judge Granger and jury.
 Attorney l.. P. Deming addressing the court said that he had been informed by the State attorney that he intended to very soon call the case against Francis Carroll, of Wal ingford, charged with the murder of Mich ael Early. In. behalf of MT. Case, counsel for Carroll, he asked to have the case post poned until toward the end of the Legisla- ture, as Mr. Case would be engaged until the Legislature closed.
 Mir. Doolittle in reply made no strenuous after the case he intended to take up next week, "the case known as the Malley case or the Jennie Cramer murder case, feel that your honor will feel that you have been here sufficiently long" He did not think that there would be any case tried at the conclu- sion of that trial. Therefore he was anxious fer a trial, yet would not under the circum- stances make strenuous objections. Judge Granger then allowed the motion for post ponement, the date not being decided upon. The hearing on the Malley case will certainly begin next Tuesday.
 The cases against Alexander L. Goode, George Delaney and William Walter were stricken from the docket. Hackmen Bence and Unmack, charged with violating hack ordinance, will be tried o-day. Charles l.. Cutler was tried for incest on his daughter Fannie, aged 14.
 The first witness for the State was the wife of the accused. She was instructed that she would not be obliged to testify against her husband. She said she. felt it her duty to testify. The child upon whom it was alleged the crime was committed was in court, and also an older sister.
