CITY WINS TWO SUITS.
Brought on Account of Trouble With
 Chapel Street Bridge.

Brought on Account of Trouble With
 Chapel Street Bridge.
 Corporation Counsel Daggett received word yesterday morning that the city had won .wo suits. brought last June, one by the New Haven Towing com pany and the other by Charles S. Castle. These suits were tried in this city and brought for demurrage as the result Of the breakdown Of the Chapel street drawbridge. Corporation Counsel Dag gett and Attorney J. B. Ullman tried the cases for the city, while Attorney James D. Dewell, jr., was proctor for the plain- tiff in both actions. The decisions were handed down Wednesday afternoon in the United States admiralty court in Hartford by Judge James P. Platt.
 The claims against the city amounted to about $500. In February and May, 1900 and 1901, the machinery in the Chapel street drawbridge broke down and sor several days on both occasions traffic up and down the river was delay- ed. It was claimed by the towing com oany that their tugs, J. P. Sanderson and James H. Hogan, were held up one day and eolr days respectively by the refusal of the bridge machinery to work and that large sums of money were lost as the boats were unable to fulfil con- tracts. Both tugs were held up above the bridge.
 The other suit was that brought by Charles C.. Castle, whose claim was sim liar. His boat, was: held up several days it was claimed.
