TRAINS DELAYED AT N, Y, LOCAL SERVICE HURT Change to Right and Left Passage Observed and
 New Signals Adopted.

Trains out of New York were late last night all the way from thirty min utes to whole hour. Beginning with 7;56, three-quarters of an hour late, No. 66, the combination train to Springfield, was fortyfve minutes off schedule The Bar Harbor was the full hour be- hind time, but made up five minutes after getting on the run,
 The difficulty is that the New York Central has begun running all trains entering and departing from the Grand Central on the right and left order Until Sunday the custom had been the opposite With the change. of travel comes the change in signals. The green light still signifies crossing, but the N. Y. c. has adopted the yellow light in place of white as the clear signal.
 All this has made trainmen caut- tious with the resultant delays attend- ant upon perfeeting new arrange ment. With New Haven trains leaving the station on the left hand track they have been compelled to hop over to the right outside of New York. neces- sitating a slow down accompanied by much delay at times. The hopover will be eliminated now but for some days passengers can confidently figure on delays

GROWN STREET TO COME UP
Among tho Important Matters Before
 Street Committee.

The aldermanic committee on streets is to meet this evening for a public hearing on several matters among the most important of which will be the consideration of the req sons for the delay in the work of the extension of Crown street, and to as- certain whether some steps can be taken to facilitate matters and bring about the consummation devoutly to be wished with that street sooner than at present looks possible.
 The committee will also consider the petition for the opening of a new street in Fair Haven on the line of the abandoned Shore Line cut There is a large list of supporters for the measure which was up once before and failed to get by. The petition for the opening of new street opposite the Kendall property near Tomlinson bridge will also come up. This is op- posed by MT. Kendall, who states as his reason that he intends to give to the city his estate as public park and he feels that the opening of the street asked for would be an injury to that plan.

WOMAN AND SELF
SOUTH BEND TRAGEDY
Charles Andrews Note tc Son Implying Companion
 Was Not His Wife.

Chicago, Aug. 26.-Charles Andrews -of South Bend, Ind, shot and killed his wife in the Saratoga hotel to-day and then committed suicide by shoot ing himself through the head. The cause of the tragedy is unknown. The couple came to the hotel last night and registered under the names given. Nothing was seen or heard of them tuntil to-day when the sound of a re- .vclver shot was heard and Christopher Richards who occupied an adjoining rcom, ran in to ascertain the cause of the shooting. The woman was lying |dead on the floor, with two bullet wounds in the head. Andrews was standing over her with. a revolver in his hand, the blood flowing from his head Andrews was taken to the hos pital and died just as he reached there.
 On a table in the room was found a letter, evidently written by Andrews, and addressed to c. W. Andrews, jr, Elkhart, Ind The letter contained the following sentences, which leads the po- lice to believe that the murdered wo- man may not have been Mrs. Andrews
 "Ethel and myself have not been feeling very well of late, you know the reason why. Be a good boy and mind your mother"
 There were no signs of struggle in the room and Andrews had evidently killed the woman while she sat facing him without giving her any warning The woman was about 3S years old, of good appearance and handsomely dressed.

HEALTH BOARD TO DAY
Will Probably Consider Dr. Wrights
 Recommendations.

The board of health will meet this afternon for it's regular fortnightly session. At the meeting to-day there may be called up report on which the condition of the Coot-a-lap com pany situation is at present, but as the company has had but one week to act in since the action of the board on its case the matter will more probably be laid upon the table for a later date. Some action may be taken in regard to the appropriation for contagious dis eases. The $250 which was asked to be transferred to this account was transferred by the board of finance last week and is now available. Some apportionment of this sum for the work in hand may be made.
 In addition the board will probably consider and take definite action on the recommendation of Health Officer Wright in regard to new rules to gov ern more strictly the relations of the five medical inspectors employed by the board to look after the condition of the children in the schools.
