yesterday forenoon. Yesterday after

at almost precisely the same hour that
his son died to-day.
HARTFORD HIGH SCHOOL INDIG-
NANT.
Hartford, Oct. 27.-Among the Hart
ford high school students, and especial
ly those who are players and substi-
tutes on the football eleven, there is the
greatest indignation at the treatment
received by the Hartford boys in and
after the game with the New Britain
high school at the latter city. During
the game, according to the Hartford
boys, the Capital City boys were treat
ed very ungenerously and there was
much smuggling. After Hartford had
won by a score of % to II there was a
first-class row. Captain Bryant of the
visiting tenn undertook to carry away
the ball as a trophy. He was set upon
by the New Britain youngsters and han
died roughly. The solitary policeman,
who happened to be in the vicinity, be-
came imbued with the idea that Bryant
was trying to steal the ball and jump
ed into the fracas and gave Bryant a
emboldened by the presence of brass
buttons, went at the Hartford team
and one New Britainer drew knife
and a Hartford boys coat was cut. The
feeling is very high at Hartford and it
is doubtful if Hartford consents to the
arrangement of another game with New
Britain.
NOT MOBBED.
New Britain, Oct 27-The story to
the effect that the members of the Hart
ford high school football eleven were
mobbed after Saturdays game is vigor-
ously denied in this city. 1t is stated
by those who We're present at the game
that there is not the semblance of truth
in the story, and that any reports of
rough treatment received by the Hart
ford boys by the New Britain boys is
made out of whole cloth
SUNDAY LAW IN MERIDEN.
Meriden, Oct. 27.--For months the po-
lice have been tryirSS on successive Sun
days to detect violators of the Sunday
LIQUOR laws and the city ordinances.
To-day their efforts were much more
energetic, but the only victim was in the
person of Joseph Sattler, a barber, who
was arrested for shaving a customer.
The cigar stores and drug stores are
open every Sunday, but a city ordinance
provides for the closing of all barber
shops. To-day the police caught Sattler
and he was arrested. His friends be-
came surety.
NO TRACE OF HIM.
Danbury Oct 27.-There is no trace
of the missing John Baizely, the book
keeper who, it lis thought, robbed his
employers safe last week The Dan
bury police are at work on the case and
in the opinion of the officers Baizely is
IN New York. The amount of money
taken from Smith & Benedict is only
$500. The family of the missing man
are heartbrokent over his disappearance
and they, together with Danbury people
in general are unable to account for
his act. 1t lis believed by Baizely's en-
ployers that the man was insane or at
best temporarily deranged. Theamount
of money taken by him was too small
for the seriousness of the crime. His
books are in first-class shape, and no
reason can be assigned for the strange
act
