TH1EvING BOYS CAUGHT,
New Haven Juveniles Arraigned in
 Bridgeport Sent to Reform School.

Bridgeport, Dec. 23-In the opinion of the police a series of breaks during the past three weeks has been cleared up by the presentation in court of a number of lads who had had a hand in the offences. Edward McQueeney aged 16, of New Haven, a member of the gang of juveniles arrested in that city for breaks, was bound over to the superior court for trial for breaking into with others the local pawn shop a week ago yesterday. In his break watches, revolvers, etc. were taken. The lads tried to get into a leather store in order to borrow a suit case in which to cart the pIunder back to New Haven. Seven other boys were ar raigned on similar charges. Three of | these made a break last week and got caught yesterday. The oldest, Freder- ick schwink, aged 19, was held for the higher court, while the others were or dered committed to the reform school,
 but sentence was suspended. Two oth- ' CT boys who made a break last night

United States Steel Company Turns Over Check for Wire
 Company Property.
DEEDS ALL TRANSFERRED.
Nearly Two Thousand Hands Will Dc Employed in Factories of Old
 National Wire Corporation.

A further evidence of increase in business prosperity is shown in the fact that within few months the United States Steel company will re- open the factories of the old National Wire corporation in Fair Haven and will employ from between 1,SOO to 1000 hands, The United States Steel com pany formally takes possession of the property to-day and before long will be ready to open it.
 The United States Steel company has a large enough capital to conduct the Fair Haven factories to their fullest extent and will not be handicapped for lack of funds as the Wire corporation was. The location Is most advant- ageous one for there is not another wire company in this section of the country located on the tide water. Yes sells can come up to the docks neal the factories and there will be littl' cost for transportation of the raw o finished product.

Chicago Conditions.

Chicago, Dec. .29.-The total num- Der of deaths from heart disease for 1907 in Chicago will be 2,497, an in crease of 106 per cent, over those of the preceding year. The death rate for the few last days of the year has been estimated, and includes in the figures furnished yesterday by pr c. St Clair Drake, chief of the municipal bureau of vital statistics Chicago phy- sicians say that the rapid pace of the present life or the collateral effects of it. such as late hours, over-eating. and drinking too much, were responsible for the alarming increase
 There is no remedy, they say, unless the present manner of living is changed, A return to the simple life 1 Is advised, shorter hours of work wherever possible, an avoidance ot late hours, and especially late sup pers. and a reduction in the amount ot food and drink consumed.

MANY WEAK HEARTS.
Fast Rate of Living and Disease Cause Many
 Deaths.
INCREASE OF 27 PER CENT.
sixty-fve Deaths from the Grip Last Week-Conditlons in
 Chicago.

New York. Dec, 23.-The increase in the number of cases of heart dis ease, for the first eleven months of 1907, in the boroughs of Manhattan and the Bronx, over the corresponding months of 1906, was 1,246-according to figures obtained to-day at the bu- reau of vital statistics at the health department. The same proportion of increase carried out to the end of the year would show an increase of near ly 1,5OO over last year.
 This would mean an increase of almost 27 per cent. an astonishing one. pr. w. E. Guifoyle head of the bureau, in speaking of this remark able condition this afternoon, said:
 This is a most extraordinary in crease. I knew it would be large, but as I had not figured out totals for some time, I had no idea that 1t would amount to as much as the fig lures have given you indicate The reasons for this would probably be found not only in the fast rate of liv- ing, but in the epidemic of grip, which is always followed by an unusually large number of deaths from heart troubles"
 For the purpose of comparison with the probable increase of 1900 for this year, it may be interesting to quote the figures of increase for the past three or four years, The increase of 1906 over the preceding year was AT
 The increase of 1905 over 1904 was 100; of 1904 over 1903, 22s The pos sible effect of the epidemic of grip, which is severe this year, on weak hearts, is shown by a comparison oi the deaths from organic heart trouble for the first three weeks of Decem. Der in 1906 and 1907. During the frs week the increase was 1S0 in 1906, tc 152 In 1907; the second week. Al 1906, 190 in 1907; the third week, IA in 1906, to 1S6 in 1907 The grip epi demic itself may be judged from tn, fact that sixty eight deaths were re
 ported last week in comparison witt
 six deaths last year.
