CITY NEWS

Henry l.. Wade and family are home after a vacation spent in Ja- macia.
 Judge Peasley this afternoon in the city court heard the case of the Brass City Lumber Co against Frank volkner for $50. The plaintiff claims to have sold the defendant $50 worth of lumber and that the bill is unpaid. A general denial is the defense, which was conducted by Senator Phelan, while Attorney Car mody appeared for the plaintiff.
 Attorney Hayes has brought suit for Frank l.. Norway against Albert Peck for s125. Both live in Water town. Norway owned a dog which he claimed was an imported Scotch collie and was a good watch and cat tie dog and possessed of all the vir- tues In the dog calendar. One day, 1t is said. the dog annoyed Peck's COWS. Peck got mad and he shot the alleged canine foreigner. Criminal suit was instituted against Peck un- der the statute and he was fined s5 and costs. But that was not satis- faction enough for Norway and hence the suit.
 It seems to be settled affair that Ciriaeo Capobianco shall not suffer capital punishment for the murder of Angelo Solomita on July 2S last. His appeal to the supreme court has been withdrawn, though his friends were confident that it would be heard at the present term of that body in Bridgeport. His counsel. Att torney O'Neill. stated to-day that the appeal has been withdrawn and the matter will be taken before the board of pardons which will sit in Hartford the first Monday in June. Mir O'Neill seems satisfied that it will be a mere matter of form. this going before the board of pardons. for he said that Capobianco's sen- tence will be changed to life impris- onment on account of his testifying against Savino Perriello. who was also charged with the murder of Sol on1ita and who was sentenced last week to from one to fifteen years for manslaughter. Capobianco is now living on a reprieye. to be hanged on June 2e.

Was Just Recovering.

Naples, April 10.-Naples this morning early had returned to her normal self. The day was brilliant, the sky cloudless, the waters of the Mediterranean were blue and unrip- pied, in place of the melancholy gray ness of the last few days, and better still, the menacing column of smoke from Vesuvius had almost disap- peared. and though the smaller era ters still gave forth smoke, the wind had turned it in another direction and an air of peace and springtime had spread over Naples and It's vicin- ity.
 But this scene of quiet was turned into mourning later when the news of the collapse of the roof of the Monte Oliveto market and the loss of life became known. The people who gathered about the market were soon in a state of great excitement. which increased when the recovery of the bodies commenced. .v..-s-.-.
 Just previous to this disaster re- ligious processions had been passing through the streets of this city. the people desiring to render thanks to the Almighty for having apparently ayerted much greater disasters than those hitherto recorded here. Here and there these processions wended their way with images of the Ma donna or saints, dressed in most gorgeous robes, of cheap blue or yell low satin, borne above seas of dark heads, mostly those of women walk ing arm in arm and chanting as they moved along the main thorough fares, individuals stopping now and then to exchange jokes with passers- by. These motley but picturesque processions were headed by numbers of boys walking two and two and carrying lighted candles which flick cred faintly in the bright sunshine. Only in a few cases did priests ac- company the processions, which in the main seemed to be local and spontaneous affairs organized on the moment in various districts.
 The news of the market disaster changed this brilliant scene to one of gloom and the processions quickly disbanded.

Another Proposition.

New York, April 10.--A counter proposition was made by the anthra- cite coal operators at meeting to- day to the representatives of the mine workers. This proposition re- jects the arbitration plan offered by John Mitchell and suggests the fol- lowing instead. The anthracite coal commission of 1902 should be re- quested to reassemble and consider whether any circumstances have arisen since April, 1903, which would justify modification of its award of that date, in respect to the following subjects: First. wages; second, the adjustment of complaints by concili- ation or otherwise. and, third, wheth- CT any new award of the commission shall be made for the next three years.

WITH MARINE RISKS.
Insurance Commissioner Talks About
 Automobile Insurance.

Olympia, Wash, April 10.-In an- swer to an inquiry from the insur- ance commissioner asking how auto mobiles ought to be classified for purposes of insurance, the assistant attorney general has replied that they may be classed with marine risks.
 "The automobile appears to be a nullius filius in our insurance laws. No niche clearly appears in the in surance laws for such risks.
 While this modern machine is a thing of beauty, 1t is an inanimate object and for that reason live stock, casualty or life insurance will not cover the risk. This leaves only marine insurance, and, indeed, there are many points of similarity in the risks assumed between an automo- bile and ship.
 Both are liable to collision, fire, breakdown, explosion, injury from the clements and running amuck, and insurance that meets the risks of floating vessel apparently cov- CTS the risks of an automobile.

DAMAGE BY STORM
NEW ENGLAND WAS HIT PRETTY
 HARD LAST NIGHT.
Wires Down in Many Places Sailing Craft Injured and Beaches and
 Docks Were Storm Swept.

. Boston, April 1O.-The storm which broke over New England last night developed into unusual in tensity for an April disturbance, and caused damage to telephone, tele- graph and electric light wires. In this city snow fell for several hours, covering the ground to the depth of an inch in some of the suburbs. Hail and then a steady downpour of rain followed, accompanied by a gale va rying from easterly to southeasterly in direction. The temperature, which remained stationary at 35 throughout last evening, gradually rose to Al.
 The greatest interruption to wire communication occurred east of Portland, Me. Just outside that city, on what is known as Tukey's bridge. a number of telegraph poles were snapped off by the wind and blown out into the bay. For ten miles to the eastward of Portland telephone poles and wire are down.
 At Hardwick, Vt, there was a snowfall of six inches, and in other sections of northern New England snow fell to depth of from five to seven inches. The total precipita- tion in Boston up to 9:30 a. m. was .88 of an inch and it was still rain ing, although much more moderate ly than during the night.
 The east southeasterly gale was severe all along the New England coast, reaching a maximum of forty eight miles an hour at Block Island, the most exposed point. At Glouces- ter the three-masted Boothbay, Me, schooner D. Clifford was blown ashore, and her crew were rescued with difficulty by the Gloucester life savers. She was in bad position among the rocks this forenoon.
 A small sloop was driven ashore at Swampscott.
 Much damage to beaches and docks was caused by the extremely high tide last night, and to-day tremen- dous seas were running.

New London, April 10-The steamer Pilgrim of the Fall River line, came into the harbor at 9 o'clock this morn. ing being forced to abandon the at tempt to reach Fall River because of the dense fog and the heavy sea run ming in the sound. The 800 passen. gers will be transferred to a special train and be sent to Boston.
 The Pilgrim left her dock in New York at the usual hour last night, but she was forced to anchor about mid night in the vicinity of COrnfield light. At that time the storm was raging with fury and the officers were kept busy calming the fears of the excited passengers. It was some time before this was accomplished but disorder was not in evidence
 Included among the passengers are 75 blue jackets for the battleship Cleveland and Des Moines in Boston harbor; 150 immigrants and nearly 400 school teachers from New HamIr shire and Vermont. who have been on an excursion to Washington. When the passengers disembark the vessel will proceed with her cargo of freight to Fall River.
