YALE GETS S154,GO1.54.
Board of Arbitration Decision in Yale
Storrs' Matter.

Storrs' Matter.
Hartford Jan. 20.-The state COM
mission appointed to arbitrate the
disputed claims between Yale univers-
ity and Storrs Agricultural school,
growing out of the diverting by the
state of the government fund for agri-
cultural colleges from the former to the
latter college held a final meeting to-
day and made thte award. The COM
mission consists of ex-Chief Justice
John D. Park of Norwich, ex-Judge
Dwight Loomis and the Hon. Henry c.
Robinson of this city. The commits
sion awards Yale college $154,6O4.54 as
damages. The award is only signed by
ex-Judge Loomis and the Hon. Henry
c. Robinson. as eX-Chief Justice Park
dissents from their conclusions. He
says that there should only be nominal
damages, if any, awarded. Judge
Park holds that Yale college has re-
ceived adequate pay for instructing
students in the art of agriculture un-
der the provisions of the act of con-
gress, and that the state law by which
the income of the fund was paid to
Yale is not required to educate agri-
cultural students free as formerly. To
rebut this view, Commissioners Loomis
ana Robinson argue that Yale was
compelled to expend much money in
erecting buildings and equipment for
the special instruction of agricultural
students, and is greatly damaged by
the transfer of the fund from her to
Storrs. The items of the award are a,s
follows: Accumulation of the fund and
damages to October l, 1894, $135, 300;
balance due Yale as agreed, $40, ,472.42;
interest to January 20, 1896, 1882 .03
The money must now be paid by the
state to Yale university. The COM
mission has been considering the case
for over seven months under the act
passed by rthe General Assembly,
April 81, 1898.

The above dispatch was investigated
last evening, and it was found that
Frank HI. Luesman, a carriage body
maker living at 62 Greenwood street,
had left his home about two weeks ago
saying that he never would be seen
again in New Haven. He had some
difficulty with his family over the rent
of the upper story of the house in which
they lived. He had been in the habit,
so said his family, of collecting the
rent and not contributing to the sup
port Of the family, which consists of
a wife, married daughter and son.
When the family demonstrated with
him for not contributing to the house
hold fund he would behave in not
very mild and gentle manner. and on
the last occasion told them that they
would never see him again. He took
with him an old black handled razor.
When told Of the possibility of the
Tompkinsville attempt at suicide being
the head of the Luesman household
they did not sem to be much surprised
or otherwise affected.
