drlfted to poor ending, which Pillsbury
dispatched In clever fashion after sixty
four moves.

TRAIN FIREMAN KILLED.
His Head Struck the Iron Work of
 Bridge With Great Force.

His Head Struck the Iron Work of
 Bridge With Great Force.
 Bridgeport, Sept 17.-John M. Leli- han, a fireman in the employ of. the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad, was instantly killed i'll a hor- rible manner yesterday afternoon on a freight train entering this city.
 At about 4 o'clock the extra freight, No 2S9, westbound, was approaching the railroad bridge. Lelihan was at his post in the left-hand side of the cab. As the engine entered the bridge he put his head out of the window, and from the appearance of his head when the body was examined, he must have turned around to look toward the rear of the train.
 In this position he struck the iron work of the bridge with tremendous force and was thrown to the back of the cab. The dead body was taken to the station and laid in the baggage room to await the arrival of the un- dertakers and Acting Medical Exam finer Godfrey.
 An examination of the body showed that the right side of his head had been frightfully crushed and the brains had been scattered. There was no other injury to the body. pr Godfrey per mitted the removal of the body and made an effort to find the mans name and address. No one was found who knew the exact name. though it was said to be Lelihan, or name of that sound. His address or that of any relatives could not be learned, though some of the railroad hands said that they believed his home was in New York.
 The death was purely accidental, and that will be the report that Dr Godfrey will make to Coroner Doten. The re- port will not be made until the acting medical examiner is able to ascertain more exactly the dead mans name and address.
 Edward French was the engineer of the train and George Hutchinson the conductor in charge of it, but though their names were taken for future reference, no blame attached to anyone as the accident was obviously acci- dental.

CONNECTICUT MOURNS. The following is Governor McLean's 
 State of Connecticut.


 State of Connecticut,
 By His Excellency,
 George P. Mclean, Governor,
 A PROCLAMATION. Whereas, The President of the United States has issued a proclama- ton, announcing the death of Presi- dent Mckinley, and appointing Thurs day next as a day of mourning and prayer throughout the nation, it seems fitting that the executives of the sev- eral states should give public response to this proclamation. and 1 therefore urge the people of Connecticut to ob- serve that day in accordance with the wishes of the president, and by appro- priate ceremonies testify their devotion to God, and their country; their hatred of crime, and their love and admiration for the heroic spirit that has passed away.
 Given under my hand and seal of
 the state, at the Capitol in
 Hartford, this sixteenth day
 of September. in the year of lSeal.1 our Lord. one thousand nine
 hundred and one, and the in
 dependence of the United
 States, the one hundred and
 twenty-sixth.

 ano from w. J. Rigney.


 ano from W. J. Rigney.
 The case which occupied the atten- ton of Judge Cowell and a jury was that of F. B. Thatcher against Sherlit William J. Rigney. The cause Of the litigation was piano which the plain tiff claimed Rigney wrongfully de- ta:ned in his possession. Bronson hnd Minor represented the plaintiff and Al torney Root the defendant. Technical ly Sheriff William J. Rigney was the defendant; the real party was John <: Gallagher, a we'll known resident or the Wolcott road.
 A year or so ago plaintiff went to live with his family in house on Gal lagher's farm. They wanted piano and Gallagher got it for them, buying it at Forbes's on South Main street. Gallagher leased them the instrument on the time payment system, but he claims they did not pay him. one night he heard they were trying to leave town and he dispatched Sheriff Rigney to recover the piano. The sheriff was successful. The Thatchers claim they bought the piano from Forbes.
