SUPERIOR COURT
Mrs Coiile's Case For S5,000 For
 Death of BuSbsnd.

In the superior court to-day Judge William l.. Bennett handed down his decision on q motion to overrule his own non-suiting of the case of the Colonial Trust Co against Frank c. Plume, The non-suiting took place very abruptly during the hearing oi the case a few weeks ago, To-day he overruled his ruling of that timG, thus restoring the case to the docket, In the suit of Mary Lehr against the railroad company a motion was argued a week ago to have the plain tiff file copy of the notice of i'm pending suit against the company which the law requires shall be served. The plaintiff replied she had ont d copy of that notice and moved to have the company file the copy. The company replied it had not the copy of the notice and therefore II could not produce it. Thus the an swer was the same on both motions and the court oyerruled both. This is considered the joke of the season, but only lawyers can appreciate it.
 To-day the case of Thomas Mar tone against John Ferndandez was to have been heard but owing to the illness of Attorney Russell, one of counsel engaged in the matter, it had to go over. The case then taken up was that of Anna NJ. Cottle against the railroad company for 1000 damages for the death of her husband, William Cottle. A few years ago as Mir Cottle was return ing from his greenhouses nea! Brookside with boy named Mieilez, both were run into by an engine at Browns crossing and instantly killed.
 The motion to strike out the cross complaint in the suit If Mrs Emma Strobel against George I. S;robel was denied.

TEMPERANCE MEN DIFFER.
Movement to Form Anti-Saloor
 League Raises Rumpus.

A meeting has been called for to- morrow afternoon in Y. M. c. A. haIl in New Haven for the purpose of forming Connecticut branch of the Anti-Saloon league, and already trouble is brewing not, indeed, among the army of King Alcohol, but among existing temperance organiza tions, whose members say that this new ae- cessiOn to their ranks will cause friction and discord generally. Rem netts C. Miller, Connecticut superin- tendent of the international reform bureau, who says he is not a member of the Connecticut Temperance union but is actively interested in temper ance work, looks upon the proposed Anti-SalOon league with suspicion and he says of it as follows:
 The call for a convention at New Haven tomorrow to organize a state anti-saloon league is causing wide spread interest and discussion. The call is signed by Rev Ford C. Ott- man. a Presbyterian clergyman of Stamford. Rev Bertrand Martin Tip pie. Methodist minister in the same city, and Judge VerreniCe Munger of Ansonia. Several other prominent laymen and clergymen are announced as sponsors for the movement the list including Rev Dr W. J. Long of Stamford, Rev Dr w. w Bowdish of New Haven, William E. Sessions of Bristol and Thomas L. Norton of Lakeville. and it is also said that some whose names are on the list are not in sympathy with the movement. Protests from all over the state are being received against the Organiza- tiOn of the anti-salOOn league. belie'F- ing that the temperance cause is being faithfully served by the Con necticut Temperance union under the leadership of H. H. Spooner of Ken singtOn."
 On Saturday Mir Miller sent the following letter to Rev MT ripple, one of the signers of the call for the meeting:
 My Dear MT ripple: I see your name as sponsor for organizing the Anti-Saloon league in this state to do the work now done so efficiently by the Connecticut Temperance union. The Anti-Saloon league coming here means rivalry. friction and division of forces which will end calamitously to the temperance cause. I have tray eled all over the state the past twenty-seven months and l find prac- tically everywhere, the churches and temperance forces believe thoroughly in the Connecticut Temperance union and in MT Spooner and are satisfied. I have at times wished with some others that the Connecticut Temper ance union were more aggressive, but the more l come to understand the conservatism of Connecticut the more fully am I convinced that Mr SpOoner is pushing temperance legislation here as fast as good judgment com mends.
 I trust you may reconsider your position in this matter of organizing the Anti-Saloon league for the good of the cause so dear to LIS all. am writing this wholly on my own re- sponsibility without the slightest suggestion from any one.
 Yours in the fight against the open saloon.
