general denial. She testified that on the
night of the murder she was not on the
street, but that after eating supper she sat
by the fire and read a newspaper until 500
O'Clock when she went to bed. She said
she knew nothing of the killing of Mrs
Munson and did not know of the Illicit re-
lations existing between her husband and

The streets of New Britain Full of
Drunken Men.
New Britain, Nov 1.-The licenses of
all liquor dealers in the city expired at
midnight last night, and as they cannot be
renewed, the town having voted mo Ii
cense" in the last election, it was the last
night liquor could be legally sold in the
city. The selectmen have decided not to
establish liquor agencies, and threaten to
seize all liquor found in the city after to-
day.
Most of the liquor dealers of the city
accordingly turned their saloons into con-
cert halls last night, orchestras and bands
were engaged, and after midnight liquor
was given away by the gallon. Early in
the evening the saloon keepers began to
dispense liquor free. with the result that
there were scores of drunken men on the
streets.
The night was one of the widest cele-
brations of "Hallowe en-" ever known here.
There were numerous rows, but no serious
fights were reported.

Two Attempt. at suicide.

STAFFORD SPEINGs, Nov Mrs George
Scripture. it has been learned. has twice
attempted to take her life within the last
week. She is now dangerously i'll at her
home. Mrs Scripture has not enjoyed
good health for some time and has fire.
quently threatened to commit suicide.
She made an attempt last Friday, taking n
large dose of morphine. Doctors were
summoned as soon as her deed was dis
covered. and she was pulled through all
right. The next day while the attendant
stepped out of her room for a moment,
Mrs Scripture repeated the attempt. She
was nearly successful and it was only after
electric shocks had been administered that
she recovered. The indications are that
she will live.

RAILROAD AFFAIRS.
Plans of the New York 4 New England
For Reaching the Metropolis.

For Reaching the Metropolis.
At a meeting of the directors of the New
York & New England road yesterday J. T.
Odell was elected vice-preSident in place
of F. H. Prince. Mr. Odell was previously
general manager of the Baltimore & Ohio
railroad.
The directors authorized the president
to make traffic contracts with the New
York, New England & Northern, also for
the construction of line between Mill
Plain, near the New York state line and
New York city. also an agreement with the
Manhattan Railroad company for an en-
trance into New York city for the New
York Il New England railroad for both
passengers and freight. The Ryan &
Macdonald Construction company will
build the new road and turn it over COM
pleted to the stockholders of the New York,
New England & Northern. Fifty-one per
cent of the stock of the company will pass
to the treasury of the New York & New
England company. The Ryan & MacDon-
aid Construction company furnishes all the
money to build and equip the road.
The connection of the New York & New
England road with the Manhattan elevated
will be Just above the New York. New Ha-
ven & Hartford freight terminals near
Third avenue and One Hundred and Forty
ninth street. The Sixth avenue elevated
will probably connect with the new line
in a union depot for passengers and
express at that point. The freight termi-
nails will be Just eastward at Port Morris
and Hunters Point. President Mcleod
says:
Looking over the ground broadly it
must be plain to every business man that
it means an additional independent line
between the two great cities of Boston and
New York. including all intermediate
points, with independent facilities for both
passenger and freight business. 1t is we'll
known that the New York & New England
road is surrounded by several roads paying
from to 10 per cent dividends.
Naturally the question would be asked
why is the New England road unable to
pay dividends: The answer is plain. II
has no entrance into the great metropolis.
