 In the superior court, civil side, yes- terday morning Judge Robinson render ed judgment for the appellant in the case of Hyman Flshs appeal from pro- bate, the attorneys in the case having agreed upon such judgment.
 Some of the creditors of Elin & Go. of Meriden filed a petition in the pro- bate court there asking that the com pany be declared inSolvent.
 Hyman Fish is another creditor, and he objected to the proceeding, claiming that the probate court did not have jurisdiction in these cases since the United States bankruptcy law went in to effect. The probate court did not take his view of it, declared the conn pany insolvent and appointed Attorney Merirman trustee.
 Fish took an appeal to the superior court and since then courts in various parts of the country have decided that the probate courts do not now have ju- risdiction.

 Receiver Beers of the Baldwin & Lam- kin company of Milford applied to Judge Robinson yesterday morning for an or der reducing his bond. Mir. Beers stat ed that he had on hand only $l,l29'23 and that the only other assets Of the company were two suits in Massachu- setts of problematical value These suits could not be settled within two years. He thought that the cost of maintaining the S35, ,000 bond during that term would eat up the money left on hand for the purpose of trying the two eases. lie felt that a bond of $1,500 for the pres ent, and a larger bond when the cases drew near trial would be a proper meth cd of arranging it. Judge Robinson will consider the question and the or der prepared for his signature by Re- ceiver Beers.

VERDICT FOR $I2, ,55O AGAINST THE
 CONSOLIDATED ROAD.

Motion Filed by Insurance Commis-
 sioner Betts In His Case Against the
 Connecticut Indemnity Co.-One Di-
 vorce Granted Yesterday-Judgme ment
 Foreclosure in Common Plens.
 In the United States court yesterday Judge Townsend heard the case of the handler Adjustable Chair company of Boston against the town of Windham, this state. The suit is over an adjusti- ble support for school furniture. It is alleged the town of Windham is using an infringement of a support on which the plaintiff company has a patent.
 In the United States district court at Boston on Thursday a verdict was giv- en in the case of Miss Ruth Hyde of Preston vs. the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad company that the plaintiff recover $12,250 damages and costs. Miss Hyde is the ten-year-old daughter of George M. Hyde of Me chanic street, Preston. She was making a visit to Danielson on June 25, 1898, and coming to the railroad crossing near the station in that place hesitated about crossing the track as freight train was standing on the siding. Being told by an employe of the road that there was no danger she started to walk across and the train was backed down upon her and ran over her leg, which was so badly crushed that it had to be ampu- tated.
 Suit was brought against the company and at the opening of the trial they of- fered to settle for the sum of $500 but this was refused by the plaintiffs coun- sel. The case was tried before Judge Putnam and a jury and is one of the largest verdicts every recovered in this court for such suit. Brown and Per kins of this city were counsel for the plaintiff and F. A. Farnham appeared for the company.
