1t seems that on Thursday the
wife of a well known railroad man,
residing in the Crawford addition,
asked Chief O'Neil to locate her hus-
band, whom she said had been
drinking heavily for period of about
two weeks and who had almost lost
his reason as a result of the contin-
ued spree. For several days she had
been unable to locate him. Officer
Halligan located the husband and
had him taken home.
The wife decided to take her hus-
band to Denver and have him placed
In q sanitarium for treatment, in an
effort to free him OF the pronounced
appetite for drink. Yesterday the
man was still in a very bad condi-
tion mentally and his wife feared
to kill her while his reason was un-
balanced. She desired to leave the
| city last night with her husband. and
felt that IL she could have protection
ready to 1snur and could have the
assistance In officer in getting on
the train, >sne would be all right.
Consequently the woman, through
tunate husband. requested Chief o.
Nell to have an officer give her the
desired protection.
| Chief O'Neil at once took the mat
ter up and yesterday afternoon tele-
phoned Officer Patterson to report at
the home promptly at o'clock and
remain with the frightened wife un-
til she was all ready to go to the

 You're mistaken, alderman" re- turned Wainwright blandly. T am in- clined to favor the passage of the Bor- ough bill"
 Phelan shot one keen glance of in- credulity at the financier, then wheeled about and resumed his rapt study of the portrait.
 "Yes," continued Wainwright, T ad- init that my City Surface line is in a way the rival of the Borough Street railway, but in big city like this there's surely room for both lines to carry on prosperous business, so why should they try to injure each other?'
 "Why, oh, why?' echoed Phelan, again addressing the portrait "Can I be gettin' so old that I've begun hear in queer things that's never said?"
 Wainwright paid no heed to the in- terpolation, but went on:
 "Of course the franchise will be a good thing for the Borough road, but 1t needn't hurt the City Surface line. Besides, the passing of the bill made Borough stock rise from 63 to 81. Then when that unauthorized announcement was made today that your honor would veto it the stock tumbled from S1 to 73. Just see what power rests with you, MT. Bennett If you should veto

WAITING FOR WALKER.
Banker Goes to New Britain if Back
 Before June Term,

Hartford, April 21.-William F. Walker, the defaulting treasurer of the savings bank of New Britain and embezzler of the funds of the Con- necticut Baptist convention, has one more chance of seeing New Britain. the city where he lived so long and where he at one time was held in high esteem. But it Is likely that he would prefer to appear before the superior court in Hartford to be- ing arraigned before the police court of New Britain, where he would see so many people whose confidence he had violated.
 When Judge Edwin B. Gager held the March tIfm of the superior criminal court here, State Attorney him a bench warrant for Walker, and had Chief Egan of the state po- lice reached here with Walker be- fore the regular business of the term was ended the chief would have landed Walker in jail and he would have been brought directly be- fore the superior court for trial. Af- ter the regular business of the term had been finished, the state attorney asked Judge Gager to have the court continued for three weeks longer in the hope that Mir Egan would be back with Walker in that time. but as he didn't come the state attor- ney had Chief Justice Simeon E. Baldwin assign Justice Hamersley of the supreme court to come for superior court session. At the time it was thought that Mir Egan would surely be here with Walker by April 21, and so the court was adjourned to to-day.
 Mir Egan has not yet started from Ensenada with Walker and it isn't known here when he will start. The adjourned session of the court will be opened by Sheriff Edward W. Dewey at 2 o'clock this afternoon. Judge Howard J. Curtis. who is pre- siding over the civil side of the su- perior court here, will occupy the bench on the criminal side of the court this afternoon and immedi- ately after Sheriff Dewey opens the court in form. Judge Curtis will or der him to adjourn the term with out day. As soon as the term is ad- journed the bench warrant which Judge Gager issued will fall. and this will make the second bench warrant that has been issued against Walker to fall by the way.
 Should Mir Egan land Walker on Connecticut soil before the June term of the superior criminal court opens he will be taken to New Britain. where he will have a pre- liminary hearing before the police court there. and there is no doubt in the minds of those who know what Walker has done but that he will have to go to jail to await trial in the superior court. unless he can furnish the bond as the police court judge in New Britain might fix. Had he been brought to Connecticut while the superior court was in ses- sion and bench warrant was in force against him. Mir Egan would have landed him in jail and his first pub lie appearance would be in the su- perior court.

"Maybe it is important, and maybe il isn't" returned Phelan. Tt all de bends on whether that was true story in the Chronicle today about your veto ing the Borough Street railway bill If you've really vetoed that bill all I'll have to do is to say, Sorry can't stay onger,' and get out"
 'No," said Bennett, '.that announce. ment wasn't authorized. I haven't ve. toed the Borough Street railway bill In fact, l haven't made public any de cision on it. Why?'
 I'm glad to hear it, and, that being the case, I'll invite myself to seat and stay awhile. Say. your honor, on the level, that Borough bill was the rawest thing that ever came across. Gee, but they did their work with meat axw
 Then you weren't one of the alder men who voted for it?"
 "Me? Nothin' doing. don't belong to Dick Horrigan's solid thirteen He can't buy and sell me at his own terms like he does them thirteen geez- ers.''
 And yet, alderman, from your rep utation''-
 From my reputation I'm crook, hey? We'll, there's crooks and crooks. And I'm one of the other kind, if I'm crooked at all, which I deny most enl thoosiastically. At least I follow no Horrigan whistle"
 Then why are you here in regard to the Borough bill?"
 Perhaps it's on the theory of set a thief to catch thief"
 Well" laughed Bennett, amused in spite of himself by the alderman's frankness, tat least you call spade a spade"
 T sure don't refer to it vague, but as q 'utensil.' You don't need any foot note explanations in one syllable when Jimmy Phelan's talking. Every move a picture. If I hadn't been through the game from shuttle to cash in. would be wise to what the Horrigan crowd Is framing up on you now? Say, I've done some raw work in my time, but this Borough business is the coarsest yet. They must think you're the original Mir. Good Thing"
 You speak as if I were to be made responsible for''--
 And ain't your' cried Phelan. Sure you are. When the people get wise to what they're up against and com mence to do. their scream will they re- member that So-and-so framed the bill and that such and such aldermen vot- ed for 1t? Not them. What the public will remember is that you signed it. It'll go screechln' down the corridors of time as the iniquitous Borough franchise bill that Bennett signed Catch the idea?"
 Yes" said Bennett grimly; q un- derstand. But what don't see is why you should have taken the trouble to come here and warn me of this.

MOVE TO FREE THAW.
Lawyer Takes Steps to Get Him Out
 of Matteawan,


 of Matteawan.
 New York, April 21.-The first step fin proceedings looking to the release of Harry K. Thaw from the State Asylum For the Criminal Insane at Matteawan was taken when James G.. Graham of Newburg, formerly secre- tary for Governor Odell, appeared as Thaw's counsel before Justice Nor schauser of the New York state su- preme court at White Plains and made application for an order directing the superintendent of the asylum to permit Thaw to sign an application for writ of habeas corpus. The order was promptly granted, as almost all such orders are.
 According to the usual procedure in such cases, Thaw will sign the appli- cation for a writ of habeas corpus, which will then be submitted to jus tice of the supreme court. probably Justice Morschauser. Such writs are always granted. and the date when the writ is returnable is fixed to suit the convenience of all parties concerned. The next step will be for Thaw to ap- pear before a justice of the supreme court for a hearing to determine whether he should be released from the asylum as sane. Probably this hearing will he held before Justice Morschauser at Poughkeepsie.
 This method of securing the release of prisoner at the state asylum Is the one usually taken when the state luna cy commission is unwilling to declare that the prisoner is sane.
 Mir. Graham. who was engaged by Harry K. Thaw about two weeks ago 10 take legal steps to bring about his release from Mattea wan asylum, stated that it would probably be several weeks before the application was made for habeas corpus writ Mir. Graham said:
 Since I was retained in the case by Mr. Thaw about two weeks ago have made a careful study of his condition. and feel perfectly certain that Harry Thaw Is q sane nlau There is a very deep question in my mind whether he should ever have been sent to Mattea- wan, and when the hearing is held have no doubt there will be produced sufficient evidence 10 show that he is sane and should be released.

 Brownsville Case.
PLOT CHARGE IS sCoUTED.

Citizens of Texas City Did Not Con-

 Washington, April 21-Senator Bo. l rah Qda.) who was one of the prose. l cutors in the trial of W. IT. Haywood on the charge of complicity in the as | sassination of ex-Governor Steunen- berg, made his initial speech in the senate, speaking in opposition to any | legislation restoring to the service the l negro soldiers of the Twenty fifth in- fantry accused of shooting up Browns vile.
 Incidentally Senator Borah expressed disapproval of any effort to secure 1 leniency for Harry Orchard, the self confessed thrower of the bomb which | caused ex-Governor Steunenberg' s death. "A cold blooded. inhuman, in- carnate devil.'' he said, blows to pieces an ex-governor upon the door, step of his home, is caught and con fesses, and before the grave of the man who died martyr to law and or der is green sentimentalism puts a halo upon the brow of the blackest spirit that ever escaped the crypts of he'll"
 MurdGous Soldiers Scored. Coming then to the subject of his speech, Mir Borah said:
 ''Men wearing the uniform of a sol dier of the Union, the insignia of gov ernment and the symbol of law and order, in the quiet of night, while homes are defenseless, assault and at tempt to murder whole families and finally succeed in committing one mur- der. To compromise with such an act or such deed is cowardice; it is be- trayal of government; it is an insult to every intelligent and right thinking negro for it presupposes he is traitor to his country and criminal at heart v
 Concerning MT. Foraker's suggestion that the citizens of Brownsville might have shot up their own town to secure the removal of the negro soldiers, MT. Borah said:
 No Citizens Conspiracy.
 ''The charge of general conspiracy involved the necessity of long prior preparation the stealing of the shells and their distribution upon the streets of Brownsville, but, followed to it's logical conclusion, if it is worth any. thing at all, this conspiracy not only steals the shells and scatters them upon the street, but it also furnishes the men who did the firing-the men who actually went upon the streets of their own town. assaulted their homes the wives and children of their friends shot the arm off policeman and mur. dered a citizen Now, there might pos. sibly have been a desire to attack the soldiers, but it seems that this conspi racy, if it had an existence, would not have turned it's guns upon its own people. ae
 No more serious charge than this was ever made against soldier of the United States. For less offenses many a soldier has been condemned and shot at sunrise. To my mind it was trea' son; if not technically so, yet morally treason in a most aggravated form"

 and Votes For Commission.
 Washington. April 2l. - The house committee on banking and currency voted to lay on the table the financial bill offered by Representative Vreeland (N. Y.D as substitute for the Aldrich bill aud decided do report favorab!y the bill recently introduced by Chairman Fowler providing for a currency com mission to consist of forty-three mem bers-eleven members of the senate. eleven members of the house and twen- ty-one others who must be citizens of the United States.
 The action of the committee was taken after Representative Nreeland appeared and made long argument in favor of his bill. saying he thought it would be criminal negligence for con gress to adjourn without passing some measure of protection in the event of another panic this fall. He did not. however. think that panic was immi nent Mir. NreeIand said that his bill was an emergency measure only. and he favored the appointment of a cur rency commission to consider perma nent banking and currency law.
 Representative Ebenezer Hlll tConn.A replied to Mr. vreeland. severely criti cising his measure. which. he said. was the AIdrich bill pure and simple. with two sections omitted
