case went to the jury, OF the bloody
night dress Mrs. Meyers wore when
neighbors arrived in response to her
calls for aid al 6 O'Clock on the morn

SHORT CALENDAR.

 liakers Not There.

There was not a Speck of fun at short calendar in the district court to- day Attorney Bronson was not there. nor any of the bclligerent members of the bar. Some of the lawyers said that Mr Bronson did not have the face to confront Judge Cowell after all he had done to keep him off the bench. Tho real reason. however. was probably that lie had no business in court. for his name was not on short calendar.
 Very little business was done at all. Attorney NJ. J. Byrne said he would file bond of $50 in his case against Alexander C. Pratt ct al. A bonI of like amount was ordered in the suit of the Gagain Livery Co ys NJ. !. Colloty. On Tuesday Judge Cowell will hear h motion for judgment in the city's case against Sarah Merrill. administrative.

ANOTHER FIND.
Supply Of Dentists Materials Now un.
 der Care of Chief Eian.

Yesterday everybody about the DO
 lice station was talking of diamonds, but this morning the subject had turned onto dental supplies, and Chief Egan sat > his. desk looking over sev- eral little parcels containing gold lcat. gold filling and various other articles used in dental offices. The articles were gathered in through the efforts of Detective Dodds and his assistants. and with them came Joseph Pinzello and George Savage of Meadow street. who are charged with lifting valisc containing the yaluables from the plat form of the railrad station on Janu- ary ?. The theft was reported to the police authorities at the time and thret, days later the check was found in the snow near the platform. which proved that the valise had come in on the cars and was stolen by somebody The de
 tectiye bureau took the matter in hand and finally traced it to the residence of Pinzello and Savage, where the goods were found minus the bag, which. it appears, was destroyed by the light fingered parties in the hope that it would help conceal their identity. The stock belongs to q lady named Grace Johnson, who was on her way from Hartford to Waterbury, The officers arc satisfied that they have the right parties. and in fact this is not denied, but each tries to throw the blame on the other. The estimated value of the collection is in the neghborhood of $2OO These with the diamond gath cred in yesterday make up quite lot tionof valuable property now at the police station, all of which will be returned to the owners as soon as they appear and make good their claims.
