INTERVIEWED
Governor Woodruff Tells Why He Went Into the County
 Commisslonershlp Matter
ISSUE IS BEfOGGED

Hartford. Ex-Governor Wood- run to-day gave out the following in- terview at the Capitol concerning the naming of county commissioners:
 T did not anticipate that any mis- understanding could arise when I wrote the recommendation in the governors message urging change in the law, in that county commis- sioners could be appointed by the governor, but the main issue has been befogged by those who care more for the politics in the premises than they do for public policy.
 Let me assure any such gentle man in or out of the general assem- bly, that I don't care one whit for more patronage. l do not personally care to make the appointments of county commissioners, for have no political debts to pay and no personal friends to favor. would not object at all if the general assembly should deem 1t wise next Tuesday to take from the table any resolutions there to appoint county commissioners and pass them.
 But I am firmly of the opinion that the law should be changed to take effect two years hence to give the governor the appointment of the county commissioners. It is not a selfish nor a personal recommends tion nor one urged by me for in- creased patronage. I thoroughly ap- preciate the courtesy shown me in both branches of the general assem- ly in postponing action last Wednes- day"

MANY PEOPLE SICK.
Inspector Callahan. However, Says
 City is Pretty Free from Disease.


 Although many are dying and the number on the sick list is large, San itary Inspector Callahan says the city never had fewer cases of con tageous disease, there belng but one of diphtheria and two or three of scarlet fever. This is credltable to the health authorities, and perhaps 1t might not be amiss to include the de- partment of public works, for 1t is admitted that the close inspection of the water sheds has contributed in no small way to warding on scarlet fever In this town. In different places all over the county scarlet fev- CT Is making heavy inroads on chill dren, and all attribute the cause to the water supply. There is biz cpl demic at Scranton, Pa, and it appears that the germs entered the homes of the victims in the water used for do nestle purposes. The original source of the trouble is laid at the door of tramps, who made practice of do- ing their washing in the reservoir. such q thing would be almost Impos- slble here, owing to regular tours made along the banks of the reservoir by men paid to look out for just such sources of contamination as are said to have worked such hard- ships in Scranton and other cities.

NINE DEATHS
Chicago's Health Board Endeav' 0rs 10 Check Scarlet Fever
 and Finds Diphtheria
MANY NEW CASES

Chicago, Jan 25.-The combined efforts of the health department, building department and state fac tory inspectors office showed results yesterday in marked decrease in the number of scarlet fever cases re- ported. This result, however, was accompanied by the greatest num- Der of new cases of diphthera report ed in any day of the epidemic, as we'll as an increase in the actual number of deaths from contagious diseases.
 There were nine deaths during the day, 67 new cases of diphtheria were reported. and there were TIT cases of scarlet fever.
 The work of the health depart ment inspectors and those sent out by Building Commissioner Bartson resulted in many significant discov- cries. One little girl was found to have died of diphtheria without med ical attention; the principal of a school was reported to have contin- ued his duties. going to and from his home where his two children were confined with scarlet fever; and in- spectors from the factory inspectors office found many violations in the city's sweatshops.

ZWIEBEL CASE
Judge Peck of Bristol Is Hear ing inc Case This
 Afternoon.
WHY ICE co OBJECTS

In the district court this afternoon Judge Epaphroditus Peck of Bristol heard a motion to vacate the injunc- ton granted few days ago by Judge Cowell to the City Ice com- pany and against oJseph and Adolph Zweibel, proprietors of Belleyiew from cutting ice in the water of Lake wood. On account of the nature of the cause and that cutting ice seems doubtful subject these days, it was understood that the temporary in- junction should either be disposed of in a few days or made permanent. Hunt and Pierce appeared for the City Ice company and Russell for the Zweibels.
 It seems that the defendants have been accustomed to cut ice for their own uses on Lakewood for years and the City Ice company did not object, but when the defendants built large ice houses and prepared to fill them up with ice. thereby giving every in- dication of becoming business com- petition the City Ice company had the injunction issued.
 It was agreed for the purposes of this hearing that the defendants hold the title to the land under the water, near their premises, by the deed giv- en by Daniel Brown to James l.. and William II. Scovill in 1S49 and pur- chased by the defendants. It was also agreed that the plaintiffs hold the title for the present owners of the pond, the Great Brook Manufacturing con- pany, to cut and harvest ice from the pond.
 The question was one of law more than fact, and the lawyers had not got warm to their subject at press hour. Charles B. Everett, president and treasurer of the City Ice company was then on the stand.

In the Jury Box When the Cele. braled Case Began Pro
 ceedlngs To-Day
RS THAW PRESENT
Jurymen Thus Far Selected Are Con, sidered 10 Be Above the Average h inc Amount oi Intelll-
 gence They Possess.

New York, Jan 25.-There were live men in the jury box to-day when the trial of Harry K. Thaw for the killing of Stanford White was re- sumed before Justice Fitzgerald. Mrs William Thaw, mother of the de- fendant, was present to-day at the opening of the morning session. hav- ing fully recovered from the fatigue and indisposition which kept her in doors yesterday. She was accom- panied by her daughter. Mrs George |. Carnegie. the two having been preceded some minutes by Mrs Evelyn Nesbit Thaw and her constant companion, May Mckenzie. The prisoners wife still wore the plain dark blue suit. trimmed only with velvet cuffs and collar of the same material, that she has appeared in on every day of the trial. To-day she had discarded her white veil for one of blue chiffon. The effect was to bring out more distinctly the fea- lures of her face. which appeared un- usually pale. The elder Mrs Thaw was in conventional black. The Countess of Yarmouth did not att tend the trial to-day owing to a slight cold she has contracted. Ed ward and Josiah Thaw were early in their seats. the only family absentee other than the countess being George l.. Carnegie. the prisoners brother in-law.
 The i've jurors selected during the first two days of the trial appear to be men we'll above the average, in intellect. All seem to be in prosper ous circumstances. Two of the five are apparently Just above 50 years old. George PfaR, a hardware deal- CT, Is the youngest, probably not more than 34 years old. Charles H. Fecke, the shipping agent, is possibly 70, and Arthur s. Campbell. a superin- tendent of telephone construction. is not more than two years older. The other jurors are Demihg B. Smith, a retired manufacturer, the foreman, and Henry Charney, manager of a plano concern. The entire special jury panel Is made up of prosperous and substantial looking citizens.
 William Rand. the former assist ant district attorney, who prosecuted Nan Patterson at both her trials, was in court to-day and attracted some at- tention. His presence had nothing to do with the Thaw case, however. He represented client who was called to the bar to answer to three indictments of perjury. The cere- mony was brief and the work of se- curing the remaining seven jurymen to try the slayer of Stanford White was taken up.
 when the elder Mrs Thaw came into court to-day she seemed oblivi-

ous of the presence of the prisoners wife in the seat next to her son. Whether the two had met outside the court room before entering was not generally known. The former chorus girl assisted her mother-in- law, however. in removing her wraps. Mrs William Thaw just before the trial was opened was handed a tele- gram in a night message envelope by her son Josiah. She opened and read the typewritten message, which ap- parently had to do with business af- fairs. probably in Pittsburg.

Hartridse. the leading counsel for the

Hartridge, the leading counsel for the defendant.
 The first taslesman proved to be Walter M. Jackson, a real estate broker, who was excused on a sus- tained challenge by the people when he declared that he entertained cer- tain prejudices which might not make him an impartial juror.
 Counsel for ThaV were informed to-day that Henry c. Harney, the fifth juror accepted to try Thaw, has acted as juror in the case in which Edward Pekarz was convicted of murder in the first degree. Pekarz's plea was insanity and several alien fists testified that he was mentally unbalanced when he murdered a wo- man from whom he rented rooms. The verdict was guilty and Pekarz was sent to Sing Sing, where his sen- tence was commuted to life impris- onment. It Is believed that Thaw's counsel were unaware of these facts when they accepted MT Harney yes terday.
 When court adjourned at one o'clock this afternoon for a recess. one more juror, the sixth. had been secured, Harold R. Faire, thirty years of age and printer by trade.
 NEW YOkiN, .4e. 25.-After trying in vnin for many hours to secure ad. ditional jurors to try Harry K. Thaw for killing Stanford White and just when counsel and spectators and even the defendant himself were drowsy from the monotony of the proceedings there came a sudden change in the tide and within the, last three-quarters of an hour three new jurors were accepted and sworn in. Thus five jurors have been accepted out of fifty talesmen examined. leaving seven men yet to be chosen.
 Thaw, with head thrown back and shoulders squared. strode buoyantly into court. The prisoners spirits had risen to high pitch, and his demeanor was in sharp contrast to that of the sad faced wife who gazed at him through red and tired eyes and gave no sign of greeting.
 Before seating himself Thaw lifted his eyes to Judge Fitzgerald and gazed steadily at him for an appreciable lapse of time.
 1t was a dramatic entrance that he made. There have been other prison. CTS on trial for their lives who have enjoyed the publicity of being stared at by crowded courtroom, and, like them, thIs young Pittsburg millionaire Is apparently pleased at the situation he has brought about.
