 Damage.

The wave is central in the Lake region to-day and is passing off, to be followed probably by warm weather with showers.

DAVIS'S
 MONEY Another Roll of It Turns Up.
Miss Mccormack Finds $68 Part of $l2,OOO That Was
 Stolen Last April From Henry Davis in Lanesville

Another package of the $12,0OO stolen last April from Henry Davis of Lanesvi1le, near New Milford, was found yesterday in Robert McCor- mack's house on Farm street. McCor- mack's son Samuel, with Benjamin Plant, Edward Weimer, Frederick Blodgett and another young fellow liv- ing in Lanesville, said to be a relative of Davis. pleaded guilty to taking some $10,OOO from the old man and they were sentenced by the superior court in Winsted to one year ill Litchfield county jail
 In view of the great search that has been made for the rest of the missing money, the discovery in the McCor, mack house is rather startling, for it was supposed that every nook and cor ner and everything and every place 1 where it would likely to be found was searched, and in vain
 Miss Mccormack was yesterday re- arranging the furniture in the room that was occupied by Samuel, and while dusting vase a roll of bank notes fell out It amounted to $68. The discovery caused quite sensation { in the neighborhood Miss Mccormack Immediately set out to find Judge CoWeIl, who was guardian of all the boys at the trial in Winsted, to give him the money. Unable to find Judge Cowel1. she went to Judge Peasley and gave him the money to give to Judge CowelI. This morning Judge Peasley told Judge CoWell he would send him check for the amount, but Judge Cowell advised him to send 1t to the assistant states attorney for Litch- field county, MT Warner
 This makes a total of $9, ,1OS.50 that has been recovered, which leaves 5000 still missing.
 Mccormack stated to the officers after his arest that there was none of old man Davis's money in his own home on Farm street. Nevertheless the house was searched from top to bottom. even the sockets of the cas- tors in the legs of the bedstead were searched by Sheriff Rigney, and all that was found there was a button hook.
 One of the boys stated that under stone near certain tree situated not far from the old needle shop, where the bulk of the money was found, 1 there was some hidden, but Sheriff Rigney searched all over the place and even dug around the tree and all he found was a package of cigarettes The boy who told of this said the ! money was near the cigarettes, but although scores of people searched and dug for it not cent was found.
