The Danbury Murder.

Danbury, April 1.-THE eases of
those implicated in the murder of
Frank Ketcham Sunday morning, came
up in the city court this morning. Mary
Fisher was fined S25 and sentenced
to thirty days in Jail for keeping dis
orderly house. Lizzie c, O'Brien was
given ten days and costs for being an
inmate, Charles Young and Thomas
Morasco We're given ten days and costs
each, and Theodore Vrendenburg and
Rufus Gaming were fined $40 and costs
and IS and costs respectively for dis
orderly conduct. These We're the men
who were with Ketcham when he was
shot. They were members of the party
that tried to break up Mary Fishers
place. From testimony of witnesses at
the inquest, which is now being held,
it seems doubtful if Flitcroft will be
tried for murder in the first degree on
which charge he was held without bail
yesterday. 1t is probable that the
charge will be changed to murder in
the second degree and it may possibly
be made manslaughter. The next term
of the criminal superior court comes in
in this city in May when he will prob
ably be tried.

New York, April 14.-The chief at
traction at the Central Park Zoo this
morning was a consignment of twelve
balloons of a rare variety. The new
arrivals are natives of Arabia and have
been in this country only about three
weeks. They belong to the class called
Hamadryas Students Of natural his
tory say that they are remarkably in
telligent In their new quarters at the
Zoo they tamely submit to being fed by
their keeper, Jacob Cook, but eye him

Joseph II, Stanford Missing.

Joseph H. Stanford, twenty-seven
years of age, a well known New Ha-
vener, disappeared last Saturday night
from the home of a friend in Brooklyn,
N. Y. Stanford who is in ill health, re-
turned from Florida Saturday in COM

pearance and he went to New York to
aid in the search.

New York CITY Interest Rates.

New York, April 14.-For the first
time in ten years the city of New York
is to pay So per cent interest on bonds.
The board of estimate and apportion-
ment at a meeting held in the mayors
office to-day authorized the comptroller
to increase the rate of interest from 8
per cent. to 81 per cent. This was
done because bonds at the lower rate
cannot be sold.
A sale of bonds amounting to more
than $4,000 was recently advertised
and the total bids received aggregated
$4,000. Under the original resolutions
authorizing the bonds the comptroller
can fix the rate Of interest on 100000
of them at 31a per cent. The board to-
day authorized that rate on 100000
more. To increase the rate on the re-
mainder special legislation will be nee
essary.
The comptroller will at once readver-
tise $3,500,000 of the bonds at 31a per
cent, and to-day he said he thought
they could be sold at a fair price. In
1894, under Mayor Gilroy, per cent.
bonds sold at premium some of them
going as high as 1.01.
Several times during the administra-
tions of Mayors Grant and Gilroy, ~
per cent bonds We're sold at par.
