BOYS BOUND OYER,
Charged With Murdering a Companion
 Threw His Body Into the River.

Antonio Angelic, aged seventeen, and Joseph Rome, aged sixteen, both of Shelton, were yesterday bound over to the October term of superior court, charged with murder in the first degree Deputy Judge Clark of Shelton bound both boys over yesterday afternoon just before the close of the court. The boys are charged with the murder of Thomas Laville on June 29. Judge Blydenburgh of this city defended An gello and ex-Congressman DeForest of Bridgeport defended Rome.
 The murder, 1t is alleged, took place on June 29. Laville, who was a shop mate of Angelic, had been drinking and became involved in a dispute with him. In their company was another Italian lad named Siglior. In the heat of the disput the boys strangled Laville and when they found life was extinct they threw his body into the Housatonic river. It was found floating there July 2. Rome, who is a bootblack, was ar rested in Shelton. Angelic was traced to Brooklyn, N. Y, and from there to this city and later to Providence, R. I. He was finally arrested in Bris- tol, R. l., about week after he left Shelton. Siglior has not been cap tured.
 The trial was begun and partly heard by the late Judge Platt, who held two days session of the court in hearing the case. During the progress he was taken i'll and died after a short illness Deputy Clark then heard the case and bound the boys over.
 Siglior, Rome and Angelic are ItaI- fans, Laville was French.
 The boys claim that they did not intend to kill their victim, but in the fight they choked him to death. An gello, Siglior and the murdered boy were employed in the Derby silver works and on the day of the murder went with Rome, who is a bootblack, to Birmingham. It was while return ing from there the quarrel was begun. which resulted in murder.

 Springfield, Mass, Aug. 26.-The first Springfield during this and the next week was the meeting of the Society for held this evening in the high school
 building. This society is small and ists, and its papers are always held in
 high esteem.

 In his absence Professor William IT.
 Brewer of Yale university was elected to preside Professor Brewer is 8 well known authority and has been presi-
 dent of the economic section of the American association The only paper l was read by the secretary in the ab- sence of the author, Professor A D. Hopkins of the agricultural experiment station at West Virginia, on Varieties of Timothy" The essay detailed the results of the cultivation of timothy
 during the past two seasons. Some ex- traordinary varieties were exhibited, one with spike thirteen and three eighths inches long and another stand | ing five feet three inches high. Profess sor Hopkins selected several different varieties and planted them in thirty five rows. He finds a marked difference in the time which timothy natures, ex- tending over nearly a month, and the early varieties are better for hay. This was regarded by Professor Brew CT and others as an important discov- cry. inasmuch as it will enable varieties of timothy to be cultivated which reach the proper stage for cutting simultane- ously with red clover, with which it is 1 grown.

FACING 1T FLEETWOOD.
The Opening Day Was Not Very Promis
 ing One.

The Opening Day Was Not a Very Promis-
 ing One.
 New York, August 26-The sixth meeting in the grand trotting circuit opened to-day at Fleetwood with three spirited harness races. The weather was fine and the track fast, while the attendance was fiattering for Monday fully 2,500 persons witnessing the sport. Betting was carried on under the Eng fish system in vogue at the running tracks, but no ready money changed hands, all wagers beingon credit
 The first race furnished the sensation of the afternoon. Fl Rami, four-year- old that was purchased two years ago for $560 at auction by P. J. Radeker of this city, and that has won upwards of 1000 thus far this year, started a hot favorite over the big field that opposed him. Roetta Soap, driven by Ed Geers, forced him to trot the first heat in 2:14A and Nomad an outsider from Long Isl- and, made him go the second in 2:15A,
 but the favorite did it easily and looked like a winner when he started in the third
 Going down the hill near the first quarter he made break, and getting tangled in his hopples suddenly fell with the horses close behind. Burlin- game, driven by John Dickerson, was lltrailing the leader and went right over
 him when Fl Rami fell, throwing Dick l,;r T into the wreck and Isaac Fleming, his driver, was thrown violently to the ground but escaped with a severe shak- ing up and was not hurt at all. Nomad ran away through the field until stop ped near the half by mounted police man.
 Frank Howard, the driver of Fl Rami, lay stretched on the track after the dust cleared away, his horse having fallen upon him. An ambulance was called and he was taken to the Harlem hos pital badly injured about the body and legs. He will recover. None of the horses were hurt. Old turfmen said it was the ugliest looking accident they ever saw on track and much surprise was expressed that nobody was killed.
 King Albert and Charity were interfer-
 ed with in the wreck and pulled
 The judges distanced Fl Rami, but permitted all the other horses to start again. With Fl Rami out of the way
 Prince Purdy gathered in the next three heats in gallant style, taking a record of 2:1514 in the fourth round. Moonstone, the second chance in the 2:10 pace, won cleverly in straight heats, cutting her record down to 2:09 in the second heat Paul was the favorite, having defeated Moonstone at Buffalo | last week, but the chestnut horse was unsteady and was badly driven, and he was never in front. Darkness came on before the third race could be finished. Benton Wilkes. a fast youngster, owned | by John Shepherd of Boston, started an odds-on faVorite, and at nightfall he | had the race at his mercy. Benton Wilkes lowered his record from 2:15H to 219 in the second heat and he show ed speed enough to warrant the belief | that he will trot in 2:21 this season. Joe Patchen. Robert J. and John R. Gentry. the three famous pacers that
 are to meet in the free-for-all on Thurs day. were exhibited on the track to-day. All are in fine condition.

His Health Has Improved Since His Arr
 rival in France.

Paris, Aug, 26.-Newton B. Eustis, son of the American ambassador, and Mir. Alexander, counsel of the embassy, returned to-day from Clairvaux prison, whither they went to see John L. Wal Ter, ex-American consul to Madagas- car, who is in prison there. They were allowed to converse with MT. Waller practically alone. The rules of the prison provide that no prisoner shall see person except in the presence of an official. In this case, however, though the rule was technically obey ed, the governor remained in the next room to that in which MT. Eustis and MT. Alexander saw MT. Waller. Wal ler's health has improved since his ar rival in France as prisoner from Mad agascar. He was suffering upon his arrival from the effects of fever that prevails in Madagascar. He seemed to be greatly cheered by the visitors. When asked whether he had any com- plaint to make regarding his treatment in prison, Waller replied:
 "No, but I would like to have chair and a table"
 This, however, according to the rules governing prisoners sentenced to solitary confinement, is not allowed | The American ambassador will apply to the foreign office for the relaxation of the rule in Walters case.
 Waller has a wainsootted cell. He | is allowed an invalid's diet, that Is | whatever he requests in the way oi | meats or vegetables is furnished. He furnished a full account of the events leading to his arrest and the court mar tial This statement has not been ! transmitted to Washington,

 Cause.
 Gaporte, Ind, Aug. 26.-Three hun dred persons were poisoned while in attendance at Lutheran church festi- val at Tracy yesterday. One thousand communicants assembled in a grove where services were held. At the con- clusion of the morning services the peo- pie gathered about the tables. A half hour later fully 300 persons, men, ,wo- men and children, were suffering terri ble agony Entire families succumbed to the disorder.
 The grove was converted into hos pital, Beds were improvised and every attention was given the unfortunates. The unusual scenes terminated the re- ligious rites and the congregation scat tered to their homes where physicians cared for the sufferers. In number of cases the symptoms of poisoning did not develope until last night, and to-day there were numerous additions to the list.
 The cause of the malady is not known. The most widely accepted theory is that the potatoes which were eaten in large quantities were either impregnat- ed with poison or cooked in a copper kettle. Others believe the water was pol luted. Physicians say tonight that all the sufferers will recover.
