He denies the charges against him, and says that he left at Chicago when he came to this city a week ago deposit slip and funds to the amount of 1000, and that in pass ing the checks he thought that there was plenty of money in Chicago to pay them.

BEFORE BRANFORn lcoITRT


 In the town court, Branford, yester- day the case of the three Films who assaulted Edward M. Kimberly of New Haven, William J. Montgomery and John McGuire on Main street Friday night, came up for trial.
 The three men under the leadership of John Johnson, who is employed in the M. I, F. factory, engaged in an ar gument with Messrs. Montgomery and Mcclure early in the evening and later laid in wait for them. Mir. Kimberly, who is spending the summer at Miss Mary Beachs place on East Main street. arrived on the 10:54 car, and was walking home, when the three at- tackled him with fists and stones. Badly bruised and almost exhausted he dragged himself back to Hutchin- sons drug store, where a doctor was called and treatment administered, aft CT which he was taken home.
 Not satisfied with their work, the Films attacked Montgomery and Mc- Guire later, badly injuring the former. Judge Fades imposed a fine of $25 and costs and sentence of thirty days in jail on Johnson, and $25 and costs on the others. Public mitigation is very strong. Scarcely a week passes, but tn elawlessness of the Finnish ele- ment arouses terror. An iron hand seems necessary to curb them and keep them mindful of the law.

THE TsBE1H, WILL CASE.

Counsel in the case of the contest of the will of the late George A. Isbell the real estate broker, submitted ar- raignments on briefs in the probate court yesterday afternoon, in regard Ito the point raised as to the admissi- bility of certain evidence.
 At the last hearing Attorney Ar wine, as counsel for the proponents of tthe will, placed Colonel c. w. Pickett on the witness stand, and asked him questions regarding the conversation Gne had with Major Theron A. Todd twhose widow is the sole beneficiary in }the TsbeH will. It was an effort to show through third party what were the declarations of the testator. Ma flor Isbeil, counsel for the contestants of the will, objected to the testimony saying 1t was not admissible Attor- ney Arvine insisted that the declara- tion of thrid party is admissible, pro. Niding he had something to say lnim- ical to his own interests. Inasmuch as Major Todd was not the beneficiary of the will he claimed that his declara- tion that his wife was the beneficiary as told by Isbell, was against his (Todd's) interests.
 Major Isbell said there was nothing in tha will with Mrs, Todd beneficiary that was against the interests of Major Todd.
 The question is an important, If mol a vital, one in the case.
 Judge Cleayeland reserved his deci- sion.

sTRIRE IN HARTFORD.

EMoulders Reported Returning to Work
 No Scarcity of Castings.
 So far as the Pratt & Whitney com pany, of Hartford, Is concerned, the management alleges, the prospect for a termination of the moulders' strike is promising. The company has never been threatened with tie-up of the works on account of shortage in cast lngs made by the mouders in the foun- dry. Before the strike began there was enough castings laid by to last un- til the end of the year As soon as the strike began the company began to break in as moulders men employed in other departments. These, together with the non-union men who did not go out with their fellow workers, com pose a force sufficient to supply the factory Some of the strikers have gone back to work, and more are ex- pected

DELIGHTFUL OCCASION.
The Lawn Party at Mrs. Jackson's at
 Woodmont.

The Lawn Party at Mrs. Jackson's at
 Woodmont.
 The social event of the season in Woodmont was the lawn fete given Saturday evening at the home of Mrs. Jackson. The elaborate decorations, consisting of palms, flowers, bunting, flags, and Chinese and Japanese lan- terms, added to the natural beauty of the location of the cottage, situated as 1t is on bluff at the waters edge. The attendance was very large, including prominent people from Bridgeport, Waterbury, New Haven and other cit ies, who are spending the summer at Woodmont, besides many who came to Woodmont for the fete. An excellent vaudeville entertainment was given. and this included an hour of minstrel sy, Fortunes were told, and happy days predicted by the seeress in Orient al costume Candies, Ice cream and other delicacies met with a ready sale Whist was enjoyed on the wide veran- das of the cottage, Gallaghers orches- tra of New Haven furnished music throughout the evening.
 The ladies in their dainty summer gowns promenading on the lawns added to the general air of festivity that pre- dominated. A neat sum was realized by the fete for the benefit of the new chapel, St, Agnes, which is to be dedi- cated on Sunday, August l2.~ The man. ager of the lawn fete was Mrs. Wil- liam Kennedy, who was well assisted by 8 number of ladies, who worked hard under her direction, and the suc- cess of the lawn fete is due in a great measure to Mrs. Kennedy, her commit tee, Mrs. Jackson, who opened her house for the occasion, and to all who contributed time and money. It is ex- pected that number of entertain ments will be given at Woodmont dur ing the month of August for the bene- fit of the new chapel.

GREAT WEEK AT WRITE CITY
Bosses O. Tn Barn Band--Cake Walk
 CTS a Hit.

CTS a Hit.
 The enterprise of Manager Speck in bringing to the White City the famous royal "Besses O tn Barn Band of Great Britain and the noted Madison Square Garden Carnival Cake-W company, including the premiers, Epps and Loretta, as the great free attrac- tions for this week, is only another proof of his promise to the public that not week this year will pass without it's real sensation.
 His securing of the noted band for it's first and only concerts in this country Is the finest kind of an ostrich feather in his amusement cap, and throngs are expected at the notable musical event, Thursday and Friday evenings and Fri day matinee. Great interest is already manifested in the appearance of the "Besses," and from present indications the members and families of the Sons of St. George and other English and Scotch societies will turn out en masse to hear them. An enormous price is being paid for this engagement extra ordinary, and no such treat has ever been offered the people in this state at summer amusement resort.
 The cake-walkers gave their first per formance yesterday. Without the slightest exaggerations they offer a re- markably original series of dances and artistic and amusing manoeuvres. A great surprise to many were the beau tlful costumes of the ladies and also the personal beauty of the performers.
 The contest for the prize cake which takes place at every show Is side-split- ting at times. Every couple that comes to the front of the stage has different series of dances and motions. Some are grotesque and even ludicrous, while others are the very height of grace. The whole entertainment is interspers- ed with novel ebony eccentricities, and affords half hour of the richest sort of wholesome amusement to both young and old.

This telegram was sent broadcast
today to the managers of the Mutual
Life Insurance Company throughout
the world. 1t was the answer of the
company to the charge that the third

To further emphasize the adminis-

There is no evidence that Anderson
