MOTH IS COMING.
Brown Tail Bug 10 Make It's Presence
 Known in Connecticut,

There Is fear that the brown-tail moth will make another invasion or this state. A dispatch from Wood stock yesterday stated that the moth had just been seen in the eastern part of the state and that buildings were covered with them The moth was also attacking trees and crops. In Wind ham county hundreds of people are reported suffering from a moth rash.
 It was stated yesterday at the office of the Connecticut agricultural station in this city that no report had come to the station that the moth had ap- peared in the state. It was added that If the moth was really coming over the border it would be necessary to fight the pest. This moth is not regarded as destructive to crops and trees as the gypsy moth, which eats all green vegetation in sight In the southeast ern section of the state men are now employed by the experiment station in hunting this moth and the cater pillars. exterminating them as far as possible.
 1t is said that the brown-tall moth attacks the fruit and oak trees espe- clally "A spraying of the trees is beneficial In arresting the spread of the pest.

QUARREL OVER STONES.
Trolley Company Claims Them, but
 City Holds On.

The preliminary work which has just been started towards the paving of the two blocks of State street be- tween Elm and Chapel streets has al- ready brought the Connecticut com pany and the city into controversy. Yesterday the trolley company serv- ed notice on the city calling upon It to cease taking up and carting away for its own use the Belgian blocks with which the street Is now paved which lie between the rails and two feet each side of the outside rails. According to the law the trolley com pany has to pay for this part of the paving and it is claimed by the com pany that they own this part of the paving and are entitled to the blocks.
 The city has been taking up all the stones and taking them away to be used for gutter work. Director of Public Works Foley declares he will continue to do SO. Corporation Coun- sel Rogers holds that the road does not own the stones and the matter will probably go to the courts for settle ment.
