WATER COMPANY SCORED CHARTER IS AMENDED
House Member Declares Mysterious Pirate" Was Lobbying in Behalf
 of Company.


 Hartford, July 9.--In the house to- day after spending an hour discussing the amendments to the charter of the New Haven Water company coHcsrn- ing the taking of Ten Mile brook in Prospect for the purpose of supplying water to Hamden and Cheshire, the original bill was passed with two amendments, one offered by Represen- tatiye Hayes of Waterbury, which would limit the taking of water from this brook to supply only Cheshire and Hamden, none of which was to ba talk en for New Haven except in the event of a surplusage. The other amendment passed was offered by Representative Allerton of Middlebury, and will com- pei the company to furnish water to Cheshire within time limit of two years.
 During the debate. which was l1d by Representative Gum, who favored the water company, and Representative AL lerton, who was opposed to 1t, all sorts of tactics was indulged in to delay action on the bill, and Representative Malone of Bristol vigorously opposed such tactics, saying that the general assembly was not here for the purpose of rairoading matters through.
 Representative Allerton, In discuss ing the bill. claimed that his opposition to the water company was actuated by personal motives, as his brother was lying at the point of death from ty- phoid fever contracted, the physician said, by drinking water In New Haven. He also said that mysterious pirate" who had been lobbying in the interests of the water company, had telephoned him that tho water company would not stand for or accept any amendments. This, in the opinion ot Mir Allerton, could be taken to moan only that the New Haven Water company considered itself greater than the general assem- hly.
 The house refused to consider It's &C., ton in rejecting the bill relating to Sunday observance.
 A favorable report was made on the amendment to the charter of New Brit ain, concerning subways; and several bills relating to automobiles and the automobile law were rejected, as they are covered in a general bill.
 A resolution to pay gratuity amounting to s100 was at once rejeot- ed.

JOCELYN SQUARE
 FLAG RAISING Customary Celebration in Honor of Fourth and
 Neighborhood
 Heroes.

The Jocelyn Square association sue cessfully carried through its annual celebration ushering in the glorious Fourth last night Promptly at IF o'clock the neighborhood gathered at the corner of Walnut and Wallace streets to see the new flag raised and the old one, which had testified to the patriots of the square for year, talk en down. Fully 500 Japanese lanterns strung from the trees all around the square lighted the neighborhood.
 There Is quite history attached to the annual celebration. The JocelYn Square association las been in existence many years, but 1t was not until lS9S that the flag raising feature was taken up. When the news came Of Dewoy5 victory at Manila, that year the mem- bers of the association thought that It would be a fine thing to raise . flag in honor of two boys of the neighborhood who were in the fleet, The attempt to tie small flag to one of he three limbs was prevented by the police, as 1t was a violation of a city ordinance.
 On the evening of July 5, 1888, cume the news of victory at Santiago, and another attempt was rnade. The police again interfered, but the opposition was strong, and while the police were kept busy in another part of 1he square several young fellows succeeded in ty- ing @ flag to q string stretched be- tween limbs of the two trees at the en- trance, just as the clock struck l2. The flag remained there for whole year, and each succeeding year a new flag to honor the brave boys who left the square to fight for Uncle Sam either in the army or navy. The residents of the neighborhood proudly claim eighty seven boys who went out
 The members of the association re- gret that they were not able to raise sufficient money to make a band concert part of the celebration last night | but they have decided to have dance during the next winter to help in raising money so that the celebration next year will even outdo the one held | this year.
 | Noise was not lacking, however. Subscriptions raised in the neighborhood placed at the disposal of the commit l tee in charge enabled them to secure sixty dollars worth of fireworks. which included everything noisy and pretty In | the way of fireworks.

WALKS OFF WITH NEARLY $1OO,OOO n .ng Teller of Windsor Trust Company of
 New York is
 Missing. TOOK FUNDS WITH
 ASSOCIATES NEAR Vault Literally Emptied to Last Nickel-Friends at Loss to Account
 for Action.

New York, July S.-A reward of $2500 was offered by surety company to- day for the arrest of Chester B. Run van, paying teller of the Windsor Trust company, who, 1t Is charged, on Satur- day afternoon walked out of the trust company's office with $96,S1775 of the banks money stuffed away in his dress suit case. The theft was detected Mon- day morning. It had been effected with a boldness as startling as it was sur prising to those who had intimately known and implicitly trusted the young man.
 Runyan had announced his intention of spending last Sunday with his mother, who, he said, was i'll at Roch- ester, and no surprise was occasioned when he brought his dress-suit case to the bank Saturday morning. Though the paying tellers cage is in plain view of the working positions of other em- ployes, the paying tellers vault was lit orally emptied during the forenoon. Not nickel remained, apparently, when at 12:30 o'clock Runyan locked the vault doors and, leaving his dress suit case in the cage, went out to lunch In forty-fve minutes he returned, bade his associates goodbye and picking up the dress-suit case, left the office. No trace of his subsequent movements has been discovered.
 Runyans wife is prostrated in their modest four-room apartment uptown, She, too, had understood that her hus band was to spend Sunday at Roches- ter The shock of his disappearance has seriously endangered her health and tonight she was under the con- stant care of physicians.
 The astonishing feature of the case is that there is no possible explanation. Runyan who Is thirty-one years old, lived frugality, never gambling, 1t Is said, and had no interest outside his office and home.
 Mrs. Runyan's brother, John Carney, 8 bookkeeper. who lived with the couple declared that his sister had been left penniless. His brother-in-law, he said, earned s1,SGO a year and the fam fly Ili$ed without display.
 SFriends of Runyan suggested that he had been effected mentally by the heat of which he had complained the past few days.
 Runyan was born in Rochester where he worked for time in drug store, Later he got place with the traders bank of this city and then with the Alliance bank where he was book keeper for five years. He came to New York about nine years ago.

Clerical Error srid to NullIfy Corrupt
 PraetIces Measure.

Practices Measure.
 Hartford, July S,-The Post to-day says that by clerical error on the part of the committee on agriculture the general assembly has repealed the entire corrupt practices act; the gov ernor has signed it; and now there Is no such thing as a corrupt practices act on the books.
 It is supposed to have happened this way; There was bill relating to the care and custody of dogs which passed last week and the passage of this bill carried with 1t the repeal of certain other sections of the general statutes, and public acts of 1908, which were also supposed to relate to dogs
 By a clerical error the bill as passed read to repeal Chapter of the public acts of 1903, which relates to the corrupt practice, and this carries With it the repeal of all the amend ments which have been made to the corrupt practices act of 1903, 19O6 and 1907

Stole Boxes Which Boys Had Collect
 cd for Fourth of July Fire.
 Some unpatriotic people living in the neighborhood of Beaver Ponds showed lately how mean they could be when they wanted to be, The boys in that district have been working hard for the last two weeks gathering boxes and barrels for the annual Fourth of July fire. They piled them up in the park for several days until the pile began to be large one.
 One day last week they noticed that the pile was being pillaged by some one. A watch was made of the pile and it was discovered that some lazy peo- pie were helping themselves to what they needed for flrewood.
 The boys naturally felt sore but they removed the remainder of their store Into the backyard of one of their number until last night when they sent the boxes up in flames,
