Mother Deserted the Waif
Very Frequently.
IT WAS IN MANY HANDS.
Unfortunate Mite Finally Seut to
The Dexter Asylum.
MOTHER ARRAIGNED in COURT.

\ young woman named Mrs. Emms
Burrows was brought into the District
Court this morning and arraigned on the
child. she pleaded not guilty and will
have "A trial on Tuesday next.
This case is one that extends over q per-
iod of many months. IL was in the lat
ter part OF 1895 that the attention of Over
seer of the Poor Cummings was called by
Mrs. Emma Burrows TO the fact that
her husband had refused to support his
family. At that time the husband was
living down the river, and when seen by
Mr.. Cummings he agreed 10 take the four
other children, but the baby he would not
have anything to do with, claiming il
was not his.
This arrangement was perfectly salts.
factory TO Mrs. Burrows and the four
children were placed in tho husband s
care. The baby's troubles then began.
shortly after this the wife took the in
fant TO tho house Of Mrs. Bessie Leonard,
on Richmond street. 10 board. Some time
went by and Mrs. Burrows did not put
i'm an appearance. Mrs. Leonard then took
the child 10 the home of its grandparents,
on Ihurbers avenue. They refused To
care for the baby and Mrs. Leonard then
took IL To Mrs. Wright's on Briggs
street As Mrs. Wright was not at home
she left the infant in charge or little
girl. Time went on and as the mother
did not appear the mattsr was rer orted
To the police and the child was taken TO
the charity building.
Mrs. Leonard was sent for and she sue
ceeded in locating the mother. Once
again tho baby was placed in her charge.
On Sept.24, 1896. the matron OF the Hope
Gale Nursery reported that child had
been left thero and tho mother had not
returned for il. 1t was the same baby.
Again it was returned to its mother
On Oct. Mrs. Edwin Duffy of Lime
street was called upon 10 care for the
child ana after boarding 1t for a few days
gave it To its mother.
Another woman on Lime street then
had charge of IL for n few days and finally
on Oct. 81, tho mother and child appeared
at the resiGcnce of Mrs. Susan Potter, 10
Friendship street with the request that
Mrs Potter hold tho babe for few min
utes while the mother went out and
bought some condensed milk. She never
came back.
Iiy tnis time Overseer Cummings de-
cided that the child had been living from
pillar To post long enough and to get a
case against the mother took possession
OF the infant and placed IL in the Dexter
asylum.
Since that time the police have been on
the lookout for Mrs. Burrows but she has
been out of town and was not located
until recently.

Will Be Made in the
Plans For Train Sheds.
LENGTH0F THE TRAIN SHED
II Will Be $50 Feet, and Will Cover
Train OF Eight Cars.
MATTER PRACTICALLY SETTLED.

The special committee on train sheds
finished up their conference this morning
in the office of the city engineer. The
result OF the conference differs in no cs-
sential from Tie facts in the case as they
were presented in The News yesterday af-
ternoon. The committee is satisfied with
the shortening of tho main train shed
from 1000 feet as set forth in the original
plsn 10 $50 feet as presented yesterday.
The $50 foot shed will cover train OF
eight cgrs aud as that Is longer THAN tho
average, and of sufficient extension to
meet all ordinary demands, the shed will
be the stated length. he sheds over the
stub tracks will TO connected with the
main shed, and they will extend to the
Gaspee street bridge OH the west and to
just beyond the river wall on the east.
This Is considered sufficient for ell prncti-
cal purposes by the committee.
City Engineer Ciapp stated that the
committees was not satisfied with all the
details and their change would necessitate
considerable alteration in the plan
that was presented at the conference yes
terday. The change however, was only
in detail and tho general scheme Of the
train shed plan rs now practically settled
would not be disturbed.
Mayor MEG uinness stated that the only
material cnange from the plan submitted
yesterday was the extension of the train
shed so that it would lap tho platform of
the fifth track SO that it would offer shell
ter should excursion trains Overrun the
capacity of the several stub tracks and
the rails row forming the four through
tracks. The change only means little
more shelter and does not alter tha gon-
eral plan The committee was not
exactly suited with t5e shape Of
the proposed sheds, and there will be
"a little alteration in this respect. He
said the matter was now practically set
tied as the railroad company would prob
ably not find any fault with the coDclu
sons OF the committee. There was moth
ing unreasonable in any part of the
scheme and it did not differ In any esscn-
tjal with the plan presented and agreed
TO by the railroad representatives yester-
day. The committee would now renort
TO the city council ana "a resolution would
be offered accepting the agreement and
then the Injunction would be dismissed
and the work of making the new station
useful to the public would be proceeded
with.
The railroad company could then occupy
tho promises for passenger service anu
build the sheds at the same time or could
keep the place closed until the sheds were
finished.
Meanwhile the city could go on with
the work of opening aud finishing the
approaches and the streets and the whole
surroundings could be put in shape for
traffic before the hard winter sets in. IL
the severe weather should come suddenly
IL would be more than likely that the
new station would be one Of the spring
openings
