M4Y BE MUELLER.
Man Arrested In NnugatucE for Murder
of the New on Family.

Naugatuck, April 13.-A man who
gives the name of Gustav Hubba is un-
der detention here, noninally charged
with breach Of the peace, but, according
to the opinion of Deputy Sheriff w. A.
Booth of Wallingford, who occasioned
the arrest, the man is the much-wanted
Mueller who murdered the Newton
family at Brookfield, Mass, January Z,
1898. Sheriff Booth has been working
on the case for some time and feels rea-
sonably confident that the man now
locked up is the man that the Massa-
chusetts authorities are so desirous of
finding. Hubba talies with the descrip
ton of Mueller as sent out by the police
officials, excepting in a slight modifica-
tion in the color Of the eyes and the
color of the moustache.
Hubba has been occupying a hut in
lonesome place near Straitsville, about
three miles from here, and has been en-
ployed as a farmland and woodchopper
at different intervals In this vicinity.
When questioned he clairaed to have
been employed about the time the
Brookfield murder was committed by
Ely Brothers of Thomaston as wood
chopper, and he has resided in this vi
cinity more or less for the past six
years. The chief of police here does not
entertain the belief that Hubba and
Mueller are identical, but nevertheless
the Massachusetts authorities have been
notified.

ERE At THE POMFRET SCHOOL.
Frame Structure Used Principally as a
Dining Hail Destroyed.

Putnm, Conn, April 19.--One of the
buildings connected with the Pomfret
school for boys was totally destroyed
by fire shortly after 5 o'clock this morn
ing. The building was a two and one
half story frame structure used prin-
cipally as a dining hall and contained
also all the cooking utensils. The loss
Is variously estimated between $4,000
and $4,000, but nothing definite could be
learned from the principal as to the ex-
tent of the loss or the origin of the fire.
Fire engines were sent from this city,
but they arrived too late to save the
building. There are six buildings in
the group connected with the school,
which is an Episcopal institution, but
none of the others were damaged to
any extent. The school at the present
time has upwards of 100 pupils.

A Plan TO Form an international Trust
Among Enrmera

Minneapolis, April 13.--The Journal
says: "All the farmers of the world in
sort of international trust to restrict
the production Of wheat and raise
prices" is the plan which it Is hoped to
carry into effect at the international
agricultural conference in Paris July
GIG. 1t is proposed to ask the farmers
of the world to reduce their wheat out
put by 20 per cent and not to sell a
bushel for less than a dollar.
]. G. Hanley of St. Paul, executive
agent of the Farmers's Alliance and In
dustrial union, the National Cotton
Growers association, the Farmers fed
Grafton of the Mississippi valley and
the National Grain Growers association
Is the chief promoter Of the Internal tional
agricultural trust IN America.
Professor G. Ruhland OF the Univer-
sity of Fribourg, Switzerland, is the
chief promoter of the plan in Europe.
The idea was conceived by these two
men Independently. Mr.. Hanley has been
interested in many "hold-your- wheat"
schemes and is prominently associated
with the farmers elevator and various
cooperative undertakings. He has long
come to an understanding as to limit
ing production, and agree to sell only
when their price could be obtained they
could easily master the situation.
AS a professor of economics, Prof.
Rutland had come to the same conclu-
sion. His study of the agrarian prob
lens Of different countries led him to
believe that the only cure for the wide
spread troubles Of farmers, which are
much more severe in the old world than
in the new is to restrict production.
Both were hard at work getting the idea
into practice when the encountered each
other through correspondence. Since
then they, have been working with a
common idea, viz To persuade the in
ternational agricultural congress to en-
dorse the plan and recommend it to the
various national associations present
for application next year.
