Miss Carrie Bennett of Berlin Pulled Out of Team-Her AssalIant Proved to Be a ColOred Man Formerly Employed by Her Father-FOund Under Bed and Cap tured.
 Berlin, Jan. 1O.-Wolcott B. Williams, a eolored man, aged thirty-one, was arraigned before Justice Gilbert this morning on three serious charges, namely, highway robbery, burglary and attempted rape. He pleaded guilty to each charge and was bound over to the superior court, Hartford county, under $1,5OO bonds, in default of which he went to jail.
 The story of Williams crime and ar rest is a thrilling one. As Miss Carrie Bennett of this town was driving home from New Britain about Q o'clock last night, she was stopped near the town farm by a man who pulled her out of the carriage, took $1O away from her and attempted to ravish her.
 She screamed and struggled fiercely and frightened the scoundrel off. In the darkness she could not distinguish the features of her assailant, but she felt confident that he was a colored man.
 As soon as Miss Bennett reached home and told of the outrage her father notified Sheriff Taylor and Con- stable Roche, who at once started after the fellow. It was thought by Miss Ben nett that her assailant had started toward the Berlin depot, but after de- velopments proved that he had rot done so. With unheard of daring he went to Miss Bennett's house, which he entered through a rear window, reaching the house before she did, it is thought.
 The idea of searching the house oc- cured to Sheriff Nelson Taylor, and the wretch, who turned out to be Williams was found under MT. Ben nett's bed.
 When he got out from under the bed he made a dash for liberty and got away and the officers after him. Roche fired at him, but he did not stop. Then Sheriff Taylor jumped into his team and followed Williams, whom he soon overlook and captured.
 Williams said the reason he attacked Miss Bennett and entered the house was to get some money, as he was go- ing to be married soon and needed some ready cash.
 Miss Bennett was formerly a well known school teacher, but of late has not done any teaching, owing to ill health.

New Rlcycle 1ndustry for connectlcut.

Thompsonville, Jan. 10.-The Wooden Frame Bicycle company of Boston will probably locate its plant here within a short time. Representatives of the con- cern have been here to confer with the board of trade, and the chances for a new industry seem to be bright, The representatives of the company propos- ed that a stock company be organized here to promote the business. but this idea is not received with favor by the board of trade. The site selected by the company is a good one, and they are very enthusiastic over coming here. The bicycle which they will manufact- ure is of a new pattern. The machine can be made for $20. The frame is of wood and is said to be as durable and good in every way as the steel frame.

WILL MEET THEM HALF WAY.
Western Lines Will Lift the Union Pacific
Boycott for q Consideration.

Chicago, Jan. 23.-The general meet
ing of the Western Passenger officials
reconvened this morning, to again at
tempt the formation of an agreement
on passenger business. 1t was expect
ed that General Passenger Agent Lo-
max of the Union Pacific would be pre-
sent but word was received that he
could not be here before Friday. The
meeting then began the work of form
ing a provisional agreement which will
be submitted to the Union Pacific il
that road is not prepared to take up
the matter of directly joining the asso-
citation. This provisional agreement is
meant to be temporary only and will
continue in force until such time as the
Union Pacific is prepared to enter into
a more formal agreemet The chief
proposition of the provisional agree
ment as far as tine Union Pacific is con-
cerned, provides for the acceptance by
that line of all Montana and Northern
Pacific coast business at Denver instead
of at the Missouri river as heretofore
and the resumption Of the interchange
of round trip business at all points.
This is lifting the boycott against the
Union Pacific provided that line will
agree to allow the other roads that por
ton of the haul between the Missouri
river and Denver.

THEY WILL CLEAR THE WAY.
Union Pacific Foreclosures Preliminary to
REORGANIZATION.

Omaha, Jan. 23.-The Omaha Bee to-
night locally says: There is a great
deal of unwriten history connected with
the recent foreclosure suit brought by
the trustees of the first mortgage
bonds OF the Union Pacific in St. Louis
last week. AS early as last July Judge
Sanborn intimated to the trustees Of tn
first mortgage bonds that an action in
foreclosure would have to be brought
in order to keep the stockholders in
terest in the property subject to the
direction Of the court, otherwise the
court might decide TO transfer the di-
rection of the company.
There are so many contracts which
in the present condition of business OPP
Union Pacific system, that IL has be-
come essentially necessary to receive
these contracts amended or revised
along lines favorable TO one of the
parties at least to the contract This
could not be done without foreclosure
and in order TO clear the decks for re-
organization. it was decided To bring
suit in foreclosure. which would have
been necessary under any cIrcumstan-
ces if readjustment of present difficult
ties was at all desirable.
AS these suits in foreclosure are
brought up on various lines and the
present receivers are appointed under
the bills of complaint. the old suits
brought by the stockholders begin to
grow less burdensome and finally the
receivers under the new suits cease TO
have any interest in the old cases and
they are removed from court so to
speak. Under foreclosure suits the ear
nings are kept separate, the court di-
reefs what use is to be made OF certain
funds and gradually the end approach
es when the property is TO be offered
for sale. So the grind of the court re-
duces the many complications until
the final run is made, when the proper
ty is in position to be taken for its
actual value in reorganization II Is
pretty generally understood that all
the foreclosure proceedings brought on
the various properties formerly con-
stituting the Union Pacific system Will
be pushed rapidly TO final adjudication
in order that the reorganization COM
nnittee may have something TO work
upon in reorganizing what was once
the greatest railroad property In the

DAY LONG TO BE REMEMBERED.
Wheat Lower Than Ever for the Season and
Pork Nowhere.

Chicago. Jan. 23.-The liquidation of
wheat longs or the board of trade
which commenced few days ago con-
tjnued today and prices broke all for
mer records for this season of the year,
Nav having touched 54as cents. The
lowest price a year ago today was oS9s
cents. 1t is estimated that fully 2,OC0,-
600 bushels OF long wheat has been
thrown over during the last three days.
A small failure was reported-that OF
J. T. Nellwegen & Co. Exhausted mar
gins, stop loss orders and the general
discourag cement of holders brought more
wheat on the market than the trade
could absorbe and hence the weakness.
But the sensational decline Of the day
was in May pork which went off 90
cents barrel and this too, in the face
of smaller receipts of live hogs than eX-
pected and higher prices at the yards.
But holders of the product were bent
on liquidation and there was bear raid
ing which broke the price. Everything
recovered however before the close.
