The man who was going north on the road does not seem to have been seen after he passed Lemuel Patchin on the road and asked for a chew of tobacco shortly before 10 o'clock This seems to be the same man who was refused work by Mrs. Cass1er. The man who came south asking for work seems to have pass ed through a little earlier and to have reached this city.
 Hardly any two of the witnesses agree with each other lon the exact time the wayfarerS passed through the locality and there is a ger eral misun- derstanding as to the clothing worn by the men, Whether they were caps or stiff hats is a question hard to set tie
 Thomas Tobin who was the first man arrested on suspicion, was one of the witnesses summoned before the coroner today. He repeated his story of few days ago.
 Tobin gave complete account of his whereabouts at all times on Friday when the murder was committed.

STRIKING LIKENESS OF JACOB HUBER

A splendid likeness of Jacob Huber, the confectioner. in oils is being shown in the window of Wallace's art store in State street. The picture. which is a three-quarter life portrait is from the brush of Emil Bresgott. a German artist has been in this country only six months. and who has been in this city since that time. MT. Huber was the first to commission the artist to make a portrait in this country. Those who have seen the portrait de- clare it to be a wonderful likeness and in addition the expression of the face is MT, Huber's best. The countenance of the subject is beautifully lighted in a. three-quarter profile and exhibits ex- cellent technique. The picture was completed in six sittings and each was of reasonably short duration. MT Prescott expects to remain in this city. up to his coming here he had a studio in Berlin. He studied his art at the Royal Academy in .Koenigsberg, Prus- sia. and at the Royal Academy in Munich under Prof. Carl Raup and Prof. Carl Marr. A study in charcoal by the artist is also on display in the art store window.

 Among those summoned as witnesses were Blanche and Herbert Dibble. granddaughter and grandson of the murdered woman. George Dibble, Frank Dibb1e, and Ernest Dibble, the three sons of the deceased, Mrs. Frank Dibble, Elmer T. Nichols, Mrs. Samuel Moody, George Sherwood, A. s. Nich- els, Mrs. Louis N. Cassier, MT. and Mrs. Lemuel Patchin,- Mrs. Bernard Barske, Miss Bernice Barske, Gustav Mackalowski, Mrs. Plumb Nichols, and several others. Sterling H. Booth, brother-in-law- of Frank Dfbble, was in the corridor of the court house. He was rot summoned and he said he had come around to see if there were clair yoyants on hand. He said: 'I have read the most d-d foolish article in a paper about the police holding hands with seance mediums" He thought that the clairvoyant ought to pay for her advertising and not use the police to make a bluff like that.
 He said the clairvoyant had at- tempted to say to the effect that his sister knew there had been a quarrel at the Dibble homestead and therefore she did not go there with milk on Fri day morning. He declared that his sister, CMrs. Frank Dibble), never car ried milk to her mother-in-law on Friday mornings and that anyone could do good a job as the clairvoy- ant if they had been reading the news Fapers.
 According to the statements made before the coroner there must have fbeen two. strange men in Trumbuil.

John Conlin, residing with his wife and five children at 1s1 Harrall ave nue. was found dead in bed last even ing by his wife who had gone to his room to inquire into his condition
 Yesterday evening he complainecs to his fellow workmen that he was be- ginning to feel dizzy. Not much was thought of it, Conlin keeping on working. The dizziness grew on him, and about six o'clock last evening he was assisted to his home. His wife ad- ministered to his wants and put him to bed. He fell off into a sleep, from which it is believed he never awoke, as when his wife visited his room about o'clock to inquire into his con dition, she was mortified to find that his body was lifeless- She screamed and would have fallen to the floor but for the presence of her eldest son, who is about nineteen, who rushed to her side.
 A physician was called, but found that life was extinct Medical Ex- aminer F. B. Downs was immediately notified and last evening viewed the remains. In his opinion, Con1in died from Nconcussion to the brain, be- lieved to have been caused by a fall.

MANY WARING FINDS.
 RIDICULOUS ERROR

Senator Moses w. Manwaring has discovered a Imaginable error in the charter amendment bill. which has been favorably reported by the com mittee on cities and boroughs of the General Assembly, in that in the sec tion relating to the election of a clerk of the board of assessors to hold office for four years, it is required that the election be held biennially. Senat or Manwaring will offer an amendment making the election fit the term. He will introduce a further amendment fixing the salary to be paid the build ing inspector at $1 500 The amend ments increase the salary of the in spector from $1,20O, and Senator Manwaring approves the change but he believes the legislation should be so drafted that $1.6 600 will be the total compensation not to be increased by fees or allowances of any kind

AUTOMOBILE LAW BADLY. BUMPED
 IN HOUSE TODAY

Hartford, June 16-Between twenty and twenty-five amendments to the bill containing amendments to Con- necticut's present automobile law faced the House when that matter came up as the order of the day this morning. For more than two hours the House tinkered with the bill and it is to be printed in its amended form before final action is taken on it.
 The first two of the House amend ments provided that motor vehicle manufacturers should pay fees accord ing to the number of engines manu- factured instead of one round sum- but these were not satisfactorv to the House and were rejected on the ground that there were engine manufacturers who did not make automobiles at all. The new law provides for two brakes on all machines and an amendment providing that this should not apply to automobiles owned by and register ed in the state at present was rejected.
 The age limit at which chauffeurs licenses can be procured was the sub ject of a long and strenuous debate. the House putting itself on record against 15 year boys driving machines. The bill as reported made 16 years the limit over which persons might procure licenses. but the House amended this to Is years.
 There was another lengthy discussion on the provision that automobiles shall be slowed to three miles an hour when approaching a street railway car that Is stationary or aDOut to stop and this was finally amended so that automo-s piles must be stopped at street cross ings where a trolley car is discharg ging passengers.
 An effort to have half of the fines and fees collected by courts in auto mobile eases go to the towns instead of having them all go to the state as at present. was defeated as was also an amendment creating speed limit of ten miles an hour in any city. borough. incorporated village or fire district.
 Another amendment which was pass ed provided that the suspensionS of ii- cense for chauffeur whose license was taken away should be two years in stead oe six months as the bill pro- vides. A few other amendments bar red automobile owners who had not registered their machines from recov-# cry from any injury to personal prop erty unless the owner is a nonresident made jail sentence for second offenses one year instead of six months and struck out the exception of incor- porated cities from a provision that motor cars should slow to ten miles when approaching dangerous points.
 The House passed motion for the printing of the automobile law with all of the amendments incorporated with the understanding that when the amended bill is ready in the files. final action shall be taken on it.
