CHARGED WITH INoENDIARIsM.
billing Clerk Corwln in Count.

SAtiN W. W SOur.
Waterbury, April S.-David j. Corwin,
billing clerk at the freight depot OF
the New England Railroad company,
was before the court here this morning
to answer a charge of inoendiarlsm.
He is suspected of having set the fire
which destroyed nearly hundred thou
sand dollars worth of property recently
in this city and which started in the
yards of the City Lumber and Coal
company
Corwin was arrested last night, as the
police they believe they have sufficient
evidence to warrant taking him into
custody.
After some evidence had been put in
this morning the case was continued
one week. and bail was fixed at $500.
Corwin lives in Bristol and travels in
and out of the city daily. On the night
the fire started he remained in Wtter-
bury. This fact and others connected
with it led the officials to make an in
vestigation. The accused man is forty
years old and has wife and two chill
dren. John J. Jennings has been en-
gagged as his counsel.
