MURDER SUSPECTED
And Negro jackson Held for Invest
cation of Resnet's Death.

Ansonia, Conn. Feb. 24.-Fred Jack
son. a negro of this city, is held at the
lcckup in Seymour, pending an investi
cation by the authorities of the cause
of the death of Henry Resnet, wood
chopper. whose body burned to a crisp,
was found. about midnight, last night
lying in the ruins of a little hut in OK
ford where he lived. Coroner Mix of
New Haven, and Medical Examiner
Barnes of Oxford, who examined the
body. this afternoon, are said to have
found cash resembling a knife wound
extending from the breast to the abb
domen and of such depth that the in
testines protruded. There was an
odor of Kerosene. it is said, about the
ruins of the hut. The theory on which
the authorities are working is that
Resnet was a victim of foul play and
that his body was burned to conceal
the crime. Resnet was q French Ca

CONSOLIDATION DELAYED.
Adj. Gen. Dyer Urges All Spanish War
Men to Get Together.

Washington. Feb 24.-Adjutant
General Dyer of the Spanish War Vet
Grams. has issued circular to his or
ganization in which he calls attention
to the meeting of the joint committee
on consolidation of the Spanish War Vet
Grams and the Spanish American War
Veterans recently held here. He says
he regrets that consolidation was not
accomplished, the reason for the fail
ure being because of the request of the
committee representing the Spanish
American War Veterans that the joint
committee adjourn until certain legal
action contemplated within their as
ISOLATION first, had been determined. 1t
is not thought that consolidation will
be accomplished before the annual
September meetings of the two So
cieties.
