prscoR1Eous AN2 INDECENT.

This is the Term Applied by an Ansonfe
Paper to the Waterbury Committee on
Trunk Sewer.
The Ansonia Sentinel says that the
members of the legislative committee on
public health who were looking up sewer
construction through the valley the
other day, were no doubt surprised to
find that Ansonia was so slimly repre-
scented. The Sentinel adds: Il should
be explained in this connection that this
trip by rail was a change from the ORR
to Warden O'Sullivan of Birmingham,
and DR. Randall of Shelton, secretary of
the committee, to complete. This pro-
gramme was for the committee to go to
Derby junction by train and then be
transported in carriages to Waterbury.
The committee was coming at the soil
citation of the remonstrants, the petit
tioners simply acquiescins in the invita-
ton. Until last Thursday it was ex-
pected by the secretary of the commit
tee that this plan would be carried out.
son that day a message from Colonel
Burpee to the committee requesting de.
lay in the matter was received in Hart.
ford. He said he would be over next
day and make full arrangements. There
had been no consultation with the re-
monstrants, no notification had been
served on them of an intended change in
the programme, and the change was
arranged by Colonel Burpee without the
knowledge or consent of the remon
strants or any one of them. The first
knowledge had of even a proposed
change came on Saturday and too late
for protest, cooperation or anything Of
the kind. The Waterbury crowd hac
simply gobbled up the committee, anG

action or interest in the visit of the com
mittee. This will explain to the com
mittee why those who had protested
against the sewer scheme at Hartford

THE. PRICE OF ICE.

why a Good Season Is Not Followed By
Reduction in Price.
Some surprise has been expressed that
although the crop of ice produced this
year was the largest and best for many
winters, yet there will be no reduction
in the price of ice from former years.
There are many reasons for this given
by the ice companies. One is that by
an agreement to which all the principal
companies are parties, standard price
is arranged which is intended to cover
all seasons, whether good or bad, except
in the case of famine, and from which
is believed to be just and equitable to
producers and consumers, doing away
with sliding or shifting prices, which
are difficult to adjust and cause much
dissatisfaction. When the crop is large
and easy to harvest, the advantage is
with the ice companies. When it is
short and difficult to obtain, the profits
Of the companies are correspondingly
diminished. -
Another reason why a large crop of
ice does not affect prices is that the
capacities for storage are limited and
enough ice to fill the houses is all that
can be utilized, all in excess of that
going to waste. The crop this year was
year, but it gives no more profit to the
dealers, as they had last year enough to
fill all their houses. The superior
quality of the ice over that of former
years is to the benefit of the consumer,
as no extra price is charged for quality,
Then, again, the expense of harvesting
was much greater this year than last
ON account of the continuous falls OF
snow, which entailed a large amount oil
extra labor in scraping and carting il
off

RoEHL,s BODY FOUND.

Discovered by Fishermen Floating in the
Hudson-A Bullet Hole in the Right
Side of the Head.
SING SING, May 10.-The body OF
Frank w. Roehl, the murderer who
made his escape from prison with Pal
lister, was found floating in the Hudson
river, near RockIand lake landing, at
$40 this morning by three fishermen.
The body was brought to Sing Sing,
where it was identified by Keeper
Connaughton and Detective Jackson as
that of Roehl.
A startling discovery was made when
the body was washed. In the right side
of the head was bullet hole. It is be.
lieved that after leaving the prison the
men quarrelled and PalIister shot his
companion. Another theory is that the
men seeing no hope of escape com.
mitted suicide.
The fishermen say that they saw
another body in the water, but were un.
able to bring it ashore because the boat
was too small. 1t is believed to be thai
of Pallister. The fishermen will receive
the reward offered for the murderer
body.

Charles Frohman has given Water

plays, but if report is true, it is doubtful
if any comedy farce he has yet pre-.
scented will prove IS successful as
"Gloriana" which has just closed a long
and highly successful run of nearly 100
nights in New York. 1t is not only a
funny and spirited comedy, but it is a
continuous laugh from beginning to
end. The situations are excruciatingly
funny, the humor clean, crispness and
naturalness of action, not always found
in plays of this character. 1t will be
