STEPNEY.

By order of Lockwood & Beers, attor- neys for E.M. Fitch of Moore's Junction, N Y., Sheriff $. E. Hayes attached the property at Stepney Depot, belonging to w. K. Benedict, last week, placing H. s.. Nichols of Shepaug, ,Southbury, in charge as keeper. The seven horses in the barn and the vehicles belonging to Benedict, as we'll as the stable above the depot, which Mir Benedict runs in his own name, were also attached. MT Fitch arrived, Tuesday night, with three car loads of stock, about 70 cattle and eight horses, which he will sell as soon as possible. When asked about the attachment, he answered, 'I don't wish to say anything at present. l have not yet consulted my attorneys, Lockwood & Beers, and can't say what will be done." ''lIow long has the firm of Benedict & Fitch existedg' ''There is no such firm. Mir Benedict was simply commission agent, selling the stock which l bought and paid for. He has not made remittances and wish to find out about it. That is all l have to say and don't care to have it printed.' Mir Benedict was willing to talk and, among other things, said, ''Yes, a keeper has been placed in charge of the proper ty here. Fitch says that the firm of Ben edict & Fitch never existed, but l can prove that it does. That sign was paint ed by his order. The firm has been in existence little over two and half years. When began, I had 5000 and my farm. Now l have only the farm and Fitch wants me to mortgage it and put the proceeds into the business here. Because l refused, he became angry and went off to buy this stock. He has never brought anything here that he has not received full value for, dollar for dollar. It was an equal partnership, but he has never paid his share of running expenses here; instead, he has drawn out money constantly. Yes, the case will be brought into court as soon as possible. Curtis X Wheeler will act for me and the case will be decided in the Superior court al Bridgeport"
 At the last meeting of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union, Mrs M. A Curtis was appointed delegate to the State convention to be held at New Lon- don.

ThA Directors Meet.

President Lewis J. Shelton, Vice Press ident k. M. Beardsley, M. D., Secretary J. Tomlinson, Directors George w. Knight, $. T. Palmer, w. IT. Brinsmade, Stiles M. Clarke, Alex Sinclair, Jr, and s. B. Wales, who remained but few minutes, met at the secretary's office on the Huntington fair grounds, Tuesday. The office was cold and stove was bor- rowed from John l.. Beardsley. The secretary's report showed $11S7 S5 re- ceived from tickets, entrance fees and o.her sources, this year, of which $577 34 has been paid for current expenses, etc. Regular premiums, awarded at the fair, call for over $500 and number of dis cretionary premiums were also voted. Ihe subject of borrowing 5000 to pay all indebtedness and place the society upon firm footing was warmly discuss ed and it will probably be done. The secretary Is to procure a number of life membership tickets, which will be sold for $l0. It Is thought that greater inter- est will be aroused in this way and that the fair will be more successful. A pro- ject to form stock company was also warmly discussed, but the society was hardly ready for this step. The meeting, after a short session, adjourned. The an nual meeting will be held Tuesday, De cember IS, in Trumbul's Town Hall.
