MRS. BOTN4Y ON THE STAND.
To Save Her Brother She Testifies Against
Her Husband.

Bridgeport, Dec. 9-The startling
revelations in the trial of Charles Boin-
ay, charged with the murder of George
Marcus Nichols of Daniels Farms.
We're continued to-day when the wife
of the accused took the stand and as
sisted in swearing away the life Of her
husband, which her brother commence
ed yesterday by turning states evil
dence. Her story comprised the con-
fessions her husband had made to her
after his return from his adventure Of
robbery and murder, together with SUBJ
sequent conversations which occurred
at different times UP to the night he
was captured by the Bridgeport Off
GERS. She did not seem to be telling
the story for motives Of revenge, but
as she herself expressed it when ques-
toned by counsel for the defence: 'T
thought that if my brother threw him
self on the mercy Of the court there
might be some chance for him. / could
see no chance for Mr.. Boinay because I
realized the terrible nature of the
crime"
From first to last she made a Won
derfully effective witness for the state.
and her evidence goes far to shatter
the last thin straw that was left for
the defense Boinay's demeanor did
not change in the least and whatever
might be his feelings towards the wo-
man, the love for whom resulted in his
arrest, he carefully concealed them and
appeared the same composed man.

J. L. Hubinger Returned Yesterday-Acci-
dent to Yacht STARLIGHT.

Joseph E. Hubinger who has been
duck shooting on his steam yacht Star
light through Pamlico sound off the
North Carolina coast with party of
friends returned to New Haven yester-
day, his shooting trip having been cut
short by an accident to the yacht.
The crank shaft broke and the boat
was taken to dock for repairs, and
when these are completed she will re-
turn to this city. Mr.. Hubinger had
expected to be gone on the trip several
weeks longer, and to return to New
Haven shortly before starting for Cal
ifornia, about February /. He now ex-
poets to remain in the city until he
starts on the western trip.
Accompanying Mr.. Hubinger on the
duck shooting trip on the Starlight
were his brother J. J. Hubinger DR..
Stetson and Frank Brazos. The party
reports excellent sport while the hunt
Ing lasted, and very enjoyable time.
The only thing they complained of is
the weather. which was very change
able, the fogs sometimes being very
heavy. During the trip they met ]. B.

THE ST7X Days BICYoEE RACE.
Miller Seems Absolutely Tireless-Hnle
Beating His Own Record.

Beating His Own Record.
New York, Dec. 9.-Hale's record in
last years big bicycle contest will look
ridiculous when the figures in fun of
this race are placed up against it. In
this contest Hale has outstripped his
own figures and was twenty-four miles
ahead of them at the end of ninety-two
hours. Last year he had 1906 miles to
his credit and tonight he had covered
1880. The rapid pace has forced out
Stephane, the French rider, from whom
so much was expected. He was official
ly declared out Of the race tonight.
He has not been on the track since a
few minutes after o'clock this morn
ing. He was thoroughly exhausted.
Miller seems to be absolutely tireless
when on the wheel. He is fast ap-
preaching the automatic state. His
eyes stare. and were it not FOR his oc-
casional great sprints he would seem
to be lost to all consciousness Hale and
Elkes are looming up as dark horses.
They are the freshest men on the track
with the advantage in favor of the
Glens Falls youth. The score at lis a.
m. was:
Miller, 1880; Rice 1903, 4; Rivierre,
1904, 5; schtnner, 1,4S2, /; Waller, 1898,
a; Moore, LAPS; Hale, 1887; Pierce, 1883;
Elkes, 1870, Z; Golden, 1,24S, 2; Enter
man, 1928; Cannon, 1,21o, z; Kinse, L.
1888, /; julius, ,157, 2; Beacon, 937; Jonn-
son, S99, 4: Gray, s9s, 3; Miller was 229
miles ahead of the record for 81 hours.

So Decided by Board of Finance-Con-
troi,er VIII Borrow TO Meet Deficiency.
The board of finance held a three
hour session last night and after sign
ing the usual weekly bills devoted the
remainder of the meeting to a consid-
Grafton of the matter OF town bills,
which have been turned over to the
city. and the rules of the board Of ed
ucation relating to finance. 1t was
finally decided that the city would ac-
cept all the towns assets and liabii-
ties, and the controller was instructed
to begin paying all bills against the
town presented after 10 o'clock this
morning. 1t is thought that the debts
of the town will exceed the receipts by
between $4,000 and 100000, although the
amount Of the deficiency in town funds
cannot yet be exactly ascertained. The
board of finance also voted to author
ize the controller to borrow such
amount as may be needed to pay town
bills in excess of town funds. Such
action Is said to be authorized by
provision of the voluminous new char
ter.
The board last night also appointed
Burton Mansfield and Controller Brown
q committee to confer with the board
of education regarding rules to govern
that board in it's financial transac-
tions.

noon says: William Ueavitt, the Com
petitor prisoner of whom his brothers
and sisters sought information, has
been restored to his family after an
absence OF nearly twenty years and af-
ter being given up for dead by his peo-
pie. When the five Competitor prison
ers landed in New York from Cuba
November % there was reported to be
among them a William Leavitt, who
said his home was In Bangor, Me. A
statement in the papers to this effect
was seen by several persons who were
looking for William Leavitt, who had
lett the old farm where he was born.
in Newburg, near Bangor, nearly tWen-
ty years ago.
Among these people was George
Sewall Of 40 State street, who Is
brother-in-law of Mr.. Leavitt. Mr..
Sewall and his wife, a sister of the long
missing Leavitt, went to New York.
Tuesday morning they went to the Sea-

Leavitt, the Competitor prisoner, had
been in there. Towards noon Leavitt

Mrs. Sewall back to Boston, where sew

side. After recuperating here Leavitt
says he will go to his old home in

BRI7AIN'S MILITARY POLFCY.
Lord Lansdowne Says That Three Army
Corps Ave EequLred.

London, Dec. 9.-The Marquis Of
LansdoWne, secretary of state for war,
speaking tonight at Edinburgh, out
lined the military policy of the govern
ment. Lord Lansdowne after remark
ing that the country had been confront
ed during the last few months with diff
ttculties in every part of the globe, not
of her own seeking, and specially men
tioning the Bering sea and Venezuelan
controversies, said that three army
corps were required; adding that two
must be available for offensive purposes
abroad. He asserted that he was still
of opinion that only moderate service
with the colors was expedient, but he
hoped to be able to increase the estab
lishment of each home battalion, thus
securing a larger margin Of seasoned
soldiers by contracting with small
numbers of reservists who, for extra
payment, would agree if necessary to
rejoin the colors during the first year
of reserve. In summing up the policy
of the government. he said: "Our in
tention is to maintain what is good of
the system and to supplement 1t where
deficient"

THE CONN NECTICUT RIVER.
improvements Recommended to Congress
by the Surveying Board.


by the Surveying Board.
Washington, Dec. 9.-The report of
the board that surveyed the Connecti-
cut Tiver between Holyoke, Mass, and
the foot of the Enfield Rapids was sub
mitted to congress to-day. The por-
ton of the river between the foot of
Enfield Rapids and Hartford was in
cluded and the plan presented provides
for securing between Holyoke and
Hartford channel nine feet deep and
$50 feet wide at extreme low water by
constructing three locks and movable
dams.
The cost is estimated at $1,S2500o, but
this total would be increased to $2,075,-
900 should the Chanoine type of dams
be used while the cost of maintenance,
etc, is estimated at $4,000 per annum.
The plans involve no injury to the ca
nal on the west bank or to water pow
err and the existence Of eleven bridges
between Hartford and Chicopee which
would not permit traffic under the pro-
posed project, is referred to. Water
carriage to the United States arsenal
at Springfield Is cited and the imrove-
ment urged in view of the estimated
cost and the commercial Importance of
the river.

RELATIONS Committee.
Annexation of Hawaii Proposed In ynrio us
Measures-Suzer's Bill.


Measures-Suzer's Bill.
Washington, Dec. 9.-Much interest
was shown in the initial meeting of the
foreign relations committee, as it was
felt that it might bring out an indica-
ton of the general line of policy toward
Cuba and the other subjects before it.
Except, however, in the announcement
of the Cuban and Hawaiian sub-com-
mittees no reference was made to
either of these subjects, as all the time
of the committee was given to the ques-
ition of sealing in Bering sea. The an
nexation of Hawaii Is proposed in va
rious measures before the committee.
Mr. Sulzer has bill making Hawaii
territory, assuming the Hawaiian debt
up to four million dollars and providing
for five commissioners to recommend a
plan of government for the islands.
Mr.. King of Utah has a bill on the
same line, Mr.. spalding Of Michigan
proposes the creation of Hawaii as a
state of the union with one representa-
tive in congress for the present.

UNREST IN RUSSIAN ASIA.
Slightest Pretext Would Suffice to Plunge
Country Into Serious Trouble.


st. Petersburg, Dec. 9.-Throughout
Russian Asia there is general unrest
among the Moslems. 1t is attributed
to exaggerated reports of the Turkish
victory over 1.-THE Great Greek EN-
pire," which have spread through the
length and breadth of the continent.
The authorities even fear that the re-
vival of brigandage recently noticed in
the caucuses is directed almost solely
against the government officials and
the unprecedented phenomenon of
Georgians displaying hostility toward
Armenians has become manifest.
The danger is so serious that con-
ference of Caucasian governors has
been convoked to concert measures of
pacification. Travellers in Central Asia
report an extraordinary ferment among
the Moslems of different races. They
are sinking their animosities and de-
clare that they are first Of all Moham-
1nedans with the sultan as their COM
mon chief. 1t is evident that the slight
est pretext would suffice to bring about
an uprising and to plunge Russia into
the same sea of troubles as India
