JARRETT'S INJUNCTION
Grained By Judge Reed Of Su-
perIor Court Last Evening.

Judge Reed of the superior court
last evening granted an injunction
against Attorney Francis P. Guilfoile
Clerk of the Court Samuel J. Marsh
Baron ]. Torkomian and Dwight M,
Atwood of Middlebury, preventing
them from taking or issuing execu-
tion on William P. Jarrett on judg-
ment for $4,000.
Attorney Wilson H. Pierce, counsel
for Mr. Jarrett, Is not entirely ac-
quainted with all the facts in the
matter, but it seems that few years
ago his client and Mr. Atwood enter
ed into land deal that was to be OF
mutual benefit. Some time after there
seems to have been disagreement
between them and Mr. Atwood
brought suit against Mr. Jarrett. Still
later, Mr. Atwood assigned his inter-
ests in the matter to B. j. Torkomian
and Mr. Jarrett was to pay a certain
sum before a certain time, said to be
April 1. A few days ago he was in
formed that judgment by default was
entered UP against him for $2,O0C
and it was to prevent execution be-
ing taken out against him that he
brought the injunction. Attorne!
Guilfoile is brought into the transac-
tion through being counsel for MI
Atwood. There will be a hearing on
the matter as soon as possible and all
the facts will then be disclosed.

Mr. McEvoy was trying to make a
collection agency out OF the probate
court and that both the claim and the
estate is so small. anyway, it would
not pay to appoint an administrator
McEvoy answered that the heirs
knew enough to distribute the ready
cash belonging to the estate between
them. The hearing was continued.

MAEASANO'S STORY
Man Accused Of Second Degree
Murder Tells II 10 Court.

It will be late this afternoon when
the case of the state against the
young man, Demetrio Maesano, LOT
the murder in the second degree Oh
his boarding boss" Guiseppi Vaz-
zanni, last summer, will go to tho
Jury. The last of the evidence was
not in until late this forenoon ana
about press hour Judge Reed was
charging the jury. Attorney Gull
foile, counsel for the prisoner, maze
an excellent defense and was conn
dent of clearing his client.
1t was quite late yesterday wheh
the accused took the stand. He tes-
titled through an Interpreter. The
gist Of his story was that Vazzanni
threatened to beat him the day OF
the killing. That Vazzanni was IN
bad humor and knocked down his
wife with blow. Then he struck
at Maesano and knocked him down,
too. Maesano got up and grappled
with Vazzanni and both fell. They
got up again and Maesano pushed
Vazzannia away. About this time
Maesano said he was exhausted and
terribly excited and afraid OF Va2-
zanni. So that when Vazzannl
struck at him again Maesano pulled
out his revolver and leveling 1t d.
retcly at Vazzanni shot him straight
in the chest. They were then about
three feet apart. Maesano was no
longer able to fight and for that rea-
son and because he was still afraid
of Vazzanni he shot him.
when Vazzanni had me down =
said Maesano, "he said he would kill
me, and when we got up thought
If turned my back to him he would
shoot me. His face was white with
passion. I never saw him so ans y
before. He was advancing toward
me when I shot him. ! instantly
left the house, not looking back for
a moment to see how Vazzanni was,
but did not believe 7 had killed
him." Maesano's story then went on
to the effect that he remained In
town that night till about 8 o'clock
Then he started for New Haven
where he took a train for New YORK
and put up with an uncle in Null.
berry street. He remained in Nav
York eight days. Then he went on
to Pottsville, Pa, and he was there
several months when he was ar.
rested. He was helping his mother
move her furniture from one house
to another when he was taken into
custody.

LOCAL MAN TALKS
Thinks LiIIey's Fight viii IDiure
Waterbury W0rkmen.

Local business men are not saying
much about the exposes now going or
at the hearing in Washington 70,
garding alleged undue influence
among the nice gentlemen who make
our laws at the White House, but II
they cared to talk they would say
things that wouldn't please Congress.
man Lilleys friends. Perhaps some
of them are needlessly alarmed but
in any case some of them feel that
government officials who have been
doing business with Waterbury con-
Germs will fight shy of them from
now on with the result that the
shops will lose some big orders and
as a consequence working people will
feel it more than the concerns. Talk-
ing about this matter last evening
man of very large means said that
the help know absolutely nothing
about how brisk competition is In all
lines of manufacturers and that 1t is
considered serious breach OF con-
fidence for the agent of a concern to
uldhc plUllC IuC why anu eiiS VAASAS
fore of his customers.
"Our concerns" he added, have
always been on the lookout for work
and succeeded admirably and this is
why Waterbury people know SO little
about real financial troubles.
He didn't think FRANKLIN A. Tay-
lor and John P. Kellogg had done
anything but what representatives OF
manufacturing concerns all over the
country are doing right along, aim
ing to bring work into their own
towns, and instead of criticism he
had heard nothing but words OF
praise for both. He refused to express
an opinion on Mr. Lilley's position,
preferring to wait until after the
hearing, but he did think that George
will have to introduce something
more definite than has appeared in
his sworn statement else the 80 called
charges will not amount to anything.
THE legislative bodies Of every de-
| Lucrative assembly in the world" he
continued, Large or small, are filled
| with men interested in what is going
| On. 1Ou see lHlS III d Sllldil way a.
meetings of city boards in our own
| town. 1t is more noticeable at Hart
ford and more SO still in Washington.
Men have a right to go there and also
to send others who may be able to
state their cases to better advantage
than they could do it themselves and
so long as no Undue influence is used
the business Of lobbying is perfectly
| legitimate. A public man who can
not be approached without suspecting
that the person who speaks to him In.
| tends to offer him bride Is unfit to
represent a constituency and in like
manner an official who Is too ready to
charge others with sinister motives
is a dangerous element in any as
sembly. If it be true that men have
been and are unduly Influenced at
Washington, / want to see the fact
established and IL Mr. Lilley knows Of
such doings and proves 1t to the sat-
isfaction of honest minds we'll give
him due credit even though the com.
mission should decide against him.
But If it should appear that it was
nothing more than unfounded sus-
picion the result will be different and
those who are responsible for all this
commotion will have to abide by the
consequences"

BOND ISSUE MONEY
Must be Used on Streets Specl-
fled by Legislature.

In a general way it is true that
the city has the bond issue money
for use on the streets, but when one
puts it that way the public gets an
erroneous idea of it. According to
the act passed by the legislature au-
thorizing the sale of the bonds, the
money is to be used for certain i'm
provements in Waterville, the open
ing of Clark street, Library park and
improvements at the new union sta
ton. Not copper of it can be APP
piled to any other purpose, although
every other man you meet wants to
know if we are to have an equal dis
tribution of that money In all parts
of the town and if so he wants some
of it spent in his street.

The story as told by General Fred

of a detective. the general says. who
pretended to be in sympathy with
the enemies of the Alexis govern
ment and induced General Freder-
ique to come north, learned his So
crets and. after divulging these to
the Haitien minister at Washington,
deserted HIS supposed friends.
Although he Is counted as one OF
Hayti's intrepid military leaders
and bears the scars Of bullet and
sword received in the Firmin insur-
rection Of 1909 against President
Alexis and in the revolution against

whose staff he was a eommandant. it
was in an almost fearful voice that
General Frederique told yesterday OF
