is by forcing her 10 scratch, and work

force her TO throw of disease, force her

Attorney O'Neil Not Satisfied With
 Judge FenH's Decision.
 Judge Fenn yesterday awarded S1 ,000 damages to Mrs Ellen McElligott of this city in her suit against Randolph 6 Gloves. Mrs McElliaott's husband was killed last June, while in the employ of the defendants, by the fall of a heavy casting. Suit was brought for $5, ,000.
 Apropos of this case we'll known lawyer said to-day that the Connecticut system of allowing judges to fix the amount of damages, was wrong. He knew nothing about this particuler case, but declares that in every such case the amount of damages should be determined by jury.
 Attorney O'Neil, counsel for Mrs Mo Elligott, is not satisfied with the de- cision of Judge Fenn, and considers $50 a year, the interest at five per cent upon the amount of damages awarded, a very small yearly allowance to family de- prived of their support by somebody's negligence.

WORK ON THE WRECK.
Grave Charges Made By a MIddletow
 Papor.


 Paper.
 A wrecking train has been sent to the scene of the wreck on the Meriden, Waterbury & Connecticut River road, and the work of removing the engine from the river is we'll under way. It is thought that it will be over a week be- fore cars can be run over the road at that point. The river is about 100 feet wide and at the present stage of water there is at least 10 feet in depth. The bridge cannot be replaced until the en- zine is removed.
 Speaking of the accident the Middle town Press saysE ''It is said that the bridge has been in an unsafe condition for some time, aud if this is so it would seem to indicate that the company was responsible to the extent of contributory negligence at any rate. It is told that iron ropes have held the center of the bridge in place for some time, and It was owing to these ropes that the bridge was not swept away yesterday morning. The bridge has been considered more or less unsafe for the past two years" The fact that the railroad commission CTS recently pronounced the road in good condition discredits the above statement.

Trouble over the TransFer of a
 Bank Book

Bank Book.
 Ernest Bernardo and his wife wore ar- rested last night,at their home no South Leonard street, charged with obtaining a bank book at the Waterbury Savings bank, by false pIetences. It appears that the couple were indebted to Nicholas Rouette and gave him their bank book as security. A few days ago Bernardo went to the bank and by representing that he had lost the original book, a new one was issued, Mark S. Chipman furnishing the required bond. Last Monday Bernardo drew from the bank most of his money and was preparing to leave the country when a warrant was issued for the arrest of himself and wife, for fraud, Rouette having produced the the original bank book which he held as security for the money due him. In the court room this morning Clerk Webster, aided by M. J. Brzezinski. who acted as interpreter, succeeded in unrSveling the tangled case and learned that the bank book was given to Rouette as security for a loan to the woman before her marriage to Bernardo, amounting to only Sl4. After the above deal had been made it appears Bernardo became indebted to Rouette in the sum of S51 and the latter tried to hold the bank book for the en- tire amount. The claim being contrary to both equity and common law was not allowed and the prisoners were dis charged upon payment of the amount due Rouette by the woman.
