Treasurer MersiCk's Bond-Board to In-
 vestigate Annex Nuisance.
 The ,selectmen examined the bonds of the constables and other town off, cials last evening and all were accept ed with the exception Of Treasurer Mer- sick. A communication was received from him stating that he did not care to ask any of his friends to go on his bond this year, so he had procured a bond from the MaCyland Fidelity com- pany for S50,0O0, which was offered to the board. As his bond was $100000 last year the matter was referred to the finance committee.
 F. w. Selewski of S9O Quinnipiac street stated that he had received a notice from the board of health that he must abate a nuisance on his premises, consisting of an overflow of sewage into the street. He petitioned the board to contruct g. sewer i'm the street, as there is none there at present and the road and bridge committee will investigate the matter tomorrow.
 On an adverse report of the road and bridge committee, the petitioners for a crossing on Center street, Fair Ha- ven East, were given leave to with draw. Selectman Beecher called atten- tion to the dangerous crossing at Grand avenue in the annex, but no action was taken, although it was the opinion of several members that a fence should be built there at once.
 
 tery desires the board to sell him a strip of the town land to use for single graves, but no action was taken. All the members of the board were present but Selectman Stahl, who is suffering from a severe cold. The board adjourn ed at S:15.

MORE ASSAULTS REPORTED
CITY NOV PATROLLED BY POLICE
 MEN IN PLAIN CLOTHES.

Many Women Assaulted in Various Parts of the City-Hinhouse Avenue Partjcu-
 Detect tho Ruf1ians-Extra Precautiop for the Holidays.
 The epidemic of crime now prevailing in this city has in no wise abated and the number of complaints received by ] the police of assaults, thefts and rob- berries has now reached alarming pro- portions. The assault eases are almost entirely upon women and while they are reported from various parts of the town the neighborhood of Hillhouse avenue and Orange street seems to be particularly infested by the ruflians.
 Within two days there have been no less than four eases of assaults on wo- men reported from Hillhouse avenue alone. There have also been several cases on the dark cross streets running from Orange to State streets, These streets are i'm most cases poorly lighted at night, quiet and with trees growing | directly in the sidewalks, admirably adapted to conceal a thief ready to bounce upon a passer-by and grab pocketbook or other property. l The exposed manner in which most women carry their purses is a great l temptation to a tramp With an empty | stomach or a bum With a craving foI a drink, He sees a lady approaching | hc1 in p,ytA Al h. l fore her in an inviting position and with a quick motion the desperate 1 wretch has the purse in his hand and is away safe from pursuit The people robbed are often averse to reporting the | fact as they dislike the publicity at 1 tendant.
 Some of the assault cases reported are not so innocent, however, and ir many cases the women attacked have suffered various indignities and have only avoided serious harm by cries ol struggling. Nor are the cries of rob | bery confined to dark streets as in two known instances purses have beer snatched on Chapel street in the early evening.
 It has been a matter of much com
 ment that the uniformed police have little success in detecting the perpetra tors of these outrages, but hast night 2 new order of things was inaugurateC and some of the thugs may be appre hended As the desperadoes can de
 tect the approach of an officer by tho 1 glitter of his buttons or shield long be l fore he can see them an eXperimen
 will be tried of having the city patrol
 ed by policemen in citizens clothing 1T addition to the regular force. Las
 night there were twenty men out il
 plain clothes. their places being filled by supernumeraries in uniform. Thi$
 arrangement will be kept up during tn, holidays
 l is the opinion of the police and oth
 CTS familiar with crime that the pres ent influx of crime is due to the pres ence of buns and tramps and not pro fesslonal criminals. This is of cours
 very gratifying to the person robbed
 but as no one has as yet been appre hended as being connected with tn
 assaults 1t is of little moment, excep
 as showing that the city is now reapins the benefit of the sWarms of tramp
 that flocked here upon the approach O
 cold weather and have been harboret
 in various quarters since.
