ANOTHER EXCITEMENT

I'm WaIlingford-J. '. Redmond. The Wallingford Correspondent of The Register, Is Arrested On The Charge of Libel.
 Wallingfsrd, right in the midst of the murder mystery, has another sensation in the way of $1, ,000 libel suit. MT. William M. Hall of w. M. Hall & Co.,, fire insurance agents of Wallingford and a member of the water commission, was the man who had the papers issued yesterday which charge J. J. Redmond, bookkeeper for Simpson, Hall, Miller & Go. and the Wallingford corre- spondent of the Register, with HDeling him through the columns of that paper in seven different counts. Redmond was arrested by Constable Austin and released on $1 ,500 bail furnished by MT. Simpson of Simpson, Hall, Miller & Co., It is set forth in the counts that Redmond had through the Register col umns slandered MT. Hall by stating that in his capacity water commissioner he, out of spite because the latter company changed the fire insurance policies from his office to some other, caused a water meter to be placed on their grounds. That Redmond through said paper called the man who placed the meter on the Spencer com pany's property, plg-headed dictator, meaning the plaintiff. The counts also state
 
 had desk room in the burgesses' office, over heard everybody else's business and that he should be turned out. The sixth count states that Redmond caused to be published I the fact that beautiful fountain still rests | in the rear of Mccormack 6 Cashens store, | and that it should be put up opposite the
 new borough building and labeled to the | laziest and cheekiest man in Wallingford,
 meaning the plaintiff, thereby melting him ! to commit breach of the peace.
 Mir. Redmond, when seen by COURIER re- porter last evening, stated that he had no ill | feelings toward Mir. Hall, but thought the 1 matter originated nearly three years ago I when MT. Hall first came into office as water l commissioner. "About three years ago my fa, her, Mr. Redmond, had four faucets enter ing his strawberry patch. had an under l standing with MT. Newton, the former water commi sipner, that we were to be charged $3 ! for the water year. When Hall took the 1 office Le charged S3 for each faucet. went to see Mr. Hall abbnr it. He was very abu : sive about i', and said the board womb Set 1 tie the matter. I w cut b, fore the board and ] they relnred the hll. That is all the fuss ever had with Hall. and have hal nothing since against him "
