1t was said to-day that the board
of public works at its meeting to-
night will ask the aldermen for per-
mission to report a discontinuance Of
the layout of Beech street. 1t is a
very expensive piece Of work and was
so understood when the matter was
first spoken Of. but the people claimed
they wanted II and were willing tC
pay. With retaining walls the esti-
mate was s13,500 and without walls
$4,000. Those who had charge o.
the petition wanted the walls and
property assessed to meet that OUTLAY
Now nobody is willing to pay and i,
so the board thinks that the best way
to settle the differences is to undo
what has been done and let the street
remain as It is for the present.

r. T. Higgins of Litchfield, coroner
of Litchfield county, said to-day tina,
his finding in the case growing out OF

row. No witnesses have been exam
ined since the hearing in Watertown
yesterday and cle coroner states that
the taking of testimony as far as tho
inquest is concerned is practically
completed. Meanwhile Mclaughlin
is locked up in the county Jail with

though Mclaughlin will be tried ON
a charge Of first degree murder, the
prosecuting attorney FOR the county
Donald 7. Warner. will not make the
charge until he receives the report o,
the coroner.
