 The school scrap in Hamden over the location of the new building in the Dun- bar district is by no means settled, but, on the contrary, Is enjoying a lull be- fore the storm that is soon to break. This time 1t is over the purchase of the Eneas Warner lot, as ordered by the town meeting. The school committee, when the appropriation was made to build the school, negotiated for the pur- chase of lot in the Bradley estate. Mir. Bradley, the administrator, took out pa- pers empowering him to sell the land, and, after strengthening out the matter, passed clear deed to the land over to Attorney Charles F. Clarke, treasurer of the committee.
 MT. Clarke then went to the bank and drew the money, but before he could pay 1t over was stopped by an injunc- tion. Then the town ordered another site purchased, and there comes the rub. It is intended that the money appropriated to buy the lot would buy the new site. But Bradley contends that the money is his, inasmuch as he delivered the deed and thereby carried out his part of the agreement. As he went to the expense of getting admin istration so as to sell the property he does not wish to lose and will make a fight.
 MT. Clarke still holds the money and says that until the proper officials in- struct him he will not pay it over to anyone. As member of the school committee he intends to enter no con- troyersy in the matte. The money be- ing tied up makes a serious obstacle to the purchase of the new lot

THE wooDsEN CASE,

In the Woodsen theft case matters were yesterday shaping themselves more definitely both as regards the prosecution and the defense. Lawyer James M. Sullivan, who will represent Woodsen, was yesterday confident of his acquittal.
 The man is mentally unbalanced, :" he said. He has dreamed all these things when he was out of his head. There were no such persons in existence as he named as taking his money to keep, and there was no such place as he named as having hidden it in. What Woodsen needs is quiet and rest for a little while, until his disordered brain gets balanced. By the time his case comes up he will tell clear, straight story
 On the side of the police the theory has been shaping itself that Mrs. Woodsen is more guilty than her hus- band, that she nagged linn into going to break into the trunk of Thomas Toole, their boarder, and that she got the key with which 1t was broken into. They point out also that she has been the spnder of most of the money, and that she took it to her cousin in New York, who abstracted $1,OOO before he would give 1t back
 Although Mrs. Woodsen is now held under $2,OOo bonds to $4.O0O for her hus- band, indications are that she will bear the brunt of the attack when the case is called to trial. She insists, like Law yer Sullivan, that her husband dreamed all about the theft, and she challenges

OBITUARY NOTES

William c. NewelI-Prominent Builder
 for Many Years---One of the Founders
 of the old MendeskOhn Society.
 William k, Newell died at his late res idence, 1855 Wall street, in this city, on August 1O 1906, in his eighty-second year. On July 29 he was stricken with paralysis of the right side and voice, and weakened gradually to a peaceful death
 William Emerson Newell was born on February 13, 1925, at Monson, Me, then recently founded by pioneers from Monson Mass To the latter place his parents returned during his boyhood and it was his home until he became of age. The son of Austin and Mary Hoar Newell, he was descended from ancient Puritan ancestry in Massachusetts and the mother country, including the Burt ard Cotton families of Longmeadow, of Colonial and Revolutionary fame, and the Hoar family, among whose dis tinguished members were Leonard Hoar, an early president of Harvard college, and the late Hon. George r. Hoar of Massachusetts He was edu-. cated at the celebrated Monson acade- my.
 In 184S MT. Newell made his home in New Haven, quickly established and during the many years of his active business life maintained leading place among the builders and contractors of the city, He was member of Golden Rule encampment and the City lodge, I. o. o. F., and of Sheffield lodge, K. of P. He was always deeply interested in music, and especially in church music. He had fine bass voice, and for many years directed the choir of the old Third church, of which he was a member. Later he united with the Church of the Redeemer. He was one of the founders of the Menhelssohn society, the fore- runner of the Gounod and other New Haven oratorio societies. But his great est delight was in the violin. As a con- noisseur of fine instruments he had more than local reputation, and his home was for many years a rendezvous alike for local musicians and for the members of the Boston symphony and other visiting orchestras. It was his rare gift to appreciate at once the pre- else change or strengthening needed to restore to beauty, strength and purity of tone an old Cremona, scared and weakened by age and use, and the re- suits of his exquisite and loving work manship are to be seen in violins throughout the country,
 Mr. Newell retired from active busi- ness about twelve years ago, but until his last illness he never lost the intense interest in life and in affairs local and national, nor did he cling to the olden times as the best, but welcomed all the progress of the present. His eye was not dimmed, and his natural force was but little abated.
 In 1S4S Mir. Newell married Helen B. Edmond of Stratford, Conn.,, who sur wives him. He leaves also his daugh- ter, Mrs. Harrie Newell Whittlesey, widow of Rev. Nathan H. Whittlesey, D. D., late of this city, and Miss Ada A. Newell and his grandchildren, Helen S., George N, Richard E. and William s. Whlttlesey. A sister of the deceased, Mrs welcome Converse, lives at the old Massachusetts home in Monson.

Grace, of New Brit ain, Grace came to this city Thursday, extending the man-hunt for Nelson that has been carried on in New Britain since the murder Tuesday night. He gave the local detective bureau a rather accurate description of the murderer, and the pair spotted the man they wanted walking along George street.
 Nelson did not deny anything, but went over the crime with the officers in the detectives room at the central police precinct. He is a Swede, who has been ii this country only a few months, who has had no education and who can talk only poor English. He is barely eighteen years old and has had to earn living for years. He says that he worked in New Britain for H. c. Holcomb, a liveryman, as hostler. He said:
 "EIolcomb sold out to Morris Kent a few weeks ago and they told me that Kent would pay me the wages that were due me. I kept going round to Kent and he laughed at me. Tuesday night went for the last time. I was getting discouraged, and when he put me off I lost my temper and handed him out an uppercut. It knocked him un- conscious and l ran away"
 Holeonlb said that Kent owed Nelson only $tD. Kent was found lying un- conscious in alleyway near the Hanna block. He was taken to the New Brit
