no infection has occurred from the cases outside of the infected district and or , ganization will. 1t is thought, be so com plete in a short while that the stamping out of any such secondary infection Is not unlikely.
 ''The impression that the authorities
 withheld information as to the extent of
 infection is occasioned by the necessary
 delay incident to the investigation upon
 the result of which the official report Is based"

REFUSES TO SET VERDICT
 ASIDE,

Judge Ralph wheeIer's Memorandum in
 Case of Miss Sheridan ys. CIty-Four
 Foreclosure Suits Granted Yesterday
 Two Suits Brought Against City for
 FalIs-Bankruptcy Doings.
 Judge Ralph Wheeler of the superior court yesterday afternoon denied the motion to set aside the verdict in the case of Miss Susan Sheridan vs. the city of New Haven. Miss Sheridan sued the city recently for alleged injuries received through a fall on an icy side walk. The jury returned a verdict in favor of the defendant. Miss Sheridan was represented by Attorneys Lynch and Bishop. The memorandum, in full, as handed down yesterday afternoon is as follows:
 In this case the plaintiff clearly proved. as alleged in the complaint, that the sidewalk was dangerously de- fective, that she was in the exercise of reasonable care, and that the fall was caused by the defective condition of the walk, If the jury rendered their verdict for the defendant on the ground that the plaintiff had failed to prove any one of these facts it would seem that a mistake was made of such a character as to require the setting aside of the verdict. It was, however, incum- bent on the plaintiff to further prove, either that the defendant by its proper , officers had knowledge of the defec- tive condition of the sidewalk, or ought to have had such knowledge, under all the circumstances of the case. N '
 The plaintiff failed 10 prove that the defendant had any knowledgesof the defect in question prior to the date of the plaintiffs injury ,..5 s .. The evidence applicable to the deter- imitation of the question whether the defendant ought to have had knowledge of the defect is such that assuming the charge to have been correct, adopted to the issue and to the state of the ev- idenee, and sufficient for the guidance of the injury. I am of the opinion that the verdict ought not to be setaside up- on this motion. #S'
 The motion is denied.
