 Many selectmen from towns which appropriated money in 1901 under the state highway act are calling at the highway commissions office in the Capitol. They are planning to com plete the roads before April 1. The state will not pay it's share for roads provided for in 1901 unless they are completed before this time.
 The body of man killed by a train near Fairfield Sunday was yesterday identified as Martin McDermott, a molder, of Bridgeport. He had been mentally affected for some weeks and is believed to have wandered in front of the train while temporarily de- ranged. He leaves a wife and three children.

WILL SEE LABOR MEN.
President Plans Conference in the
 Miller Case.

F ;
 WASHINGTON, Sept. 22. It is learned that immediately after Presi- dent Roosevelt's return to Washington at the end of the present month con ference will be held at the White House between the chief executive and a num- Der of the most prominent leaders of organized labor in the United States with view to reaching an amicable settlement of the didlculties resulting from the presidents action in the now famous Miller case'' and for the pur- pose of preventing s recurrence of such situation in the future.
 It was announced from Oyster Bay. some days ago that the president would not announce his decision in the Miller case until his return to Washington. Then John Mitchell was informed of the presidents desire for conference with the representatives If organized labor. Mitchell is in Washington, and it is understood from wlat can be learned that he will use his powerful influence to prevent any acton by the executive council of the Ameiican Fad- eration of Labor or any hasF expres- sion of opinion through the medium of resolutions or otherwise, whidn would further complicate the situation.
 The prominent labor men now in Washington are much elated, although they endeavor. to disguise the ceiling over the apparent decision of ths pres ident not to Act in the Miller case untif after a formal conference with tn rep resentatives of organized labor. They appear to consider it as in the Hgt of a first step toward victory.

BOARD OF ALDERMEN.
Chief of Police Must Issue Permits for
 Street Parades.

The special meeting of the aldermen was called to order last night by Chairman Goss, but as only eight mem- bers were present no action could be taken on the recommendations of the board of finance relative to special ap- propriations for the street department It was agreed to adjourn until a week from Thursday night. The adjourned meeting was then called and consider able business transacted.
 The following petitions were re- ferred to the board of public works: Of James Croke ct al for the estab- lishment of building lines on Luke street; of J. T. Barlow for the layout of Myrtle avenue. An application was received from A. J. Sherman stating that his property on the WatertoWn road is not benefited by the layout of that street and asking that the assess ment of benefits charged against him be abated. It was voted to ask the petitioner to appear before the board at the next regular meeting and state his case more fully than it had been done in the petition.
 The ordinance regarding street pa rades was taken from the table and passed for engrossment. Mir Beach tried to tack an amendment to it pro- viding fors fee of 25 cents for each permit issued, but Aldermen Blakeslee and Murray kicked and the motion was lost. Then MT Murray wantedy to amend the draft by striking out the words lin writing" so that one could get license by calling upon the chief of police and telling him what you wanted. This was voted down too Nothing daunted by these two dlsas- ters, MT Blakeslee had the courage to try another amendment He thought the mayor should have power to issue licenses for street parades and made move toward that end which result ed in a tie vote, MT Blakeslee, MT Foley and Mr Murray favoring it and Messrs Beach, Stanley and Filling vot- ing "No." The chair declared the mo tion lost The ordinance then went through as submitted. It provides that all parades accompanied by bands or banners. except the police and fire departments, the c. N. G. and funeral processions, shall have to procure a permit from the chief of police.
 The ordinance giving the superin tendent of poor the same powerN.as Is vested in the first selectman of astown regarding the matter of giving consent to the marriage of minor females who have no parents or guardians, was passed for engrossment.
 A big batch of petitions for abate-- ment of taxes were acted upon, some being given leave to withdraw and others going through all right. Some of the members. kicked about abating taxes for people who have big equities in their property, and thought the law should be changed so that action can be deferred on the collection of such bills until after the death of the old folks and then let the city get what belongs to it out of the estate. instead of having it go to the heirs, who didn't have enough interest in the owners to pay the taxes on property which they knew would some day come to them

FOURTEEN PLATES OF CREAM.
Derby Lad Ate That Number at One
 Sitting.


 Derby, Sept 22.-A we'll known fruit man tells a story of a 16-year-old boy eating fourteen plates of ice cream in half an hour, few nights ago. The man said that one night an Italian boy, employed on farm in East Derby, entered bis store and asked for a plate of ice cream. He ate this and four more and his extraordinary appetite for the delicacy caused the wondering fruit dealer to remark on it. "Huh, that's nothing" remarked the young ster, "I haven't had half enough yet"
 To prove that his capacity for cream had not been exhausted he offered the fruit man half a dollar in exchange for which he was to eat all he could. The proprietor accepted the offer and for the next twenty minutes the clerks in the store were kept busy putting plates Of ice cream before the boy. He devoured nine plates of vanilla and lemon cream, eating so rapidly that he did not take time to lift the cream to his mouth with the spoon.
 A number of persons who were in the room gathered around the ice cream loving boy, and his feat created a great deal of comment. After eating the nine plates the boy remarked that he was satisfied. .> -.
 The man who owns the store vouches for the story and says that in all his experience in the business he had never met another person able to eat so much ice cream.

POLICE COURT DoINGs
Court Interpreter Was Himself .
 Prisoner This Morning.


 Joseph White. who is looked upon as city court interpreter in all Lithus anian cases. was himself prisoner in that count to-day, before Judge Bur pee White was charged with as saulting fellow countryman named Joseph Lafnanis. who is now in tfha Waterbury hospital practically uncous conscious from the beating aId ths wounds said to be inflicted by White.
 festerday morning Lainanis was round almost dead in a cellar st the corner of North Leonard and S1annit streets. The finder was George Ack. erman and 1t is said now that the man had been lying in the cellar since Sats urday. Various reports are in Grcus Atfon. One is that he was found iu pool of blood, more dead than alivea that he had been thrown in the nlacd by his assailant and left there, prsba- ply to die Through the efforts of ha police it was discovered that the as4 sa1lant was White. Prosecutor Dus rant stated this morning in court thad whhle the case may be "a bad one. The injured man is evidently in no danger, This morning he was in a stupor and hot entirely unconscious for when an effort was made to rouse him he would resist. The only danger is probable concussion of the inner table of the skull. but so far no fracture has sbeop found. There were no cuts on the man. no blood marks. and it is ths opinion of the doctors that if the man was struck and the blow brought about his present. condition, a sandbaa was the Instrument uSeda The 70 co was continued to tomorrow morning and White was placed under bonds or $500. He was immediately re- leased.
 W1lHam Blake was charged with in. toxications and breach of the peace. but as, it has been some time since he was last in count the case was contirl- ued for thirty days
