 MT. Burke of Manchester argued in favor of paying honor to a national character and combatted the' report. It was but little to appropriate $2,500 for a commission to investigate.
 MT. Chamberlain argued that Lin- coln's fame was secure without a monument.
 MT. Dunn of Windham opposed the report and MT. Lyons of Thomaston also disfavored the report.
 The report was declared accepted on voice vote. but the announcement was voted. The vote was declared as follows. yes S7, no A.
 Teachers for Small Towns.
 On the calendar was a report from the committee on appropriations on aTf act to provide trained teachers in small towns. This was an unfavor- able report and was explained by Mir. Chamberlain of New Britain and was combatted by Mir. Brinsmade of Wash ington chairman of the committee on education. The bill had a unanimous report from that committee. It allows a student from a small town having small grand list to study at a nor nal school with an allowance not ex- ceeding $150 for living expenses.
 MT. Chandler of Rocky Hill argued for the bill, declaring that certain rural districts need the sustaining hand of the state.
 MT. Humphrey of Roxbury said that never before in the state had arisen such a cry for better schools in the rural districts. not that the schools were bad, but that the demand was for better. 1t was easy to find an analogy between the bill and the pay ment of living expenses of students at West Point and Annapolis
 Mir. Whiton of New London favored the bill and opposed the report. MT. Payne of Griswold felt that it would be tremendous mistake to reject the bill To train teachers for small towns appropriations for roads. rivers and bridges, for salaries and certain pur- poses. but education was more im- portant. The committee on appropri- ations was lavish in some things and penny wise in other things.
 MT. Rogers of Danbury saw merit in the bill, stating that he addressed the house as member of the com mittee on appropriations. If the com mittee erred in anything, let it err for education and hospital
 Mir Fuller of Suffield said that the committee had to meet situations in the best way 1t could and that it could not appropriate for every cause.

The foregoing version of what Chung Sin saw and did is as given out by Assistant District Attorney Ward. Miss Sigel Sincere in Mission Work.
 Those who knew Elsie Sigel best be- lieve that she was sincere in mission work and he relations with the Chi- nese up to the day of her death. Mrs. Florence Tood, of the Bowery settle- ment for girls, has never varied from her assertion of that belief Gnu Gain, who lived in terror of his jealous ri- val, Leon Ling, and knew both the girl and her mother for years. is of the same belief. Assistant District Attorney Ward is inclined to the the- ory of Quon Yck Nam, the interpreter. who thinks that the girl was iuped to Leon's room by a report of/ his feigned Illness and there chloroformed after Leon had been anRered by her coldness and her refusal to see no more of Gnu Gain, his wealthier rival.
 chloroform Worked Too We'll.
 The chloroform. Quon believes. worked too well. and when Leon found he could not revive Elsie he bound her with a cord and wedged her into the trunk In support of this theory is the pathetic and moving prayer written on a mission letterhead which the girl left for her mother on the day she went to her death. It seems impossible, 1t is argued, that a girl going on any but righteous mission could have written suck a note.
 Ashes of Missing Skirt and Waist.
 Today Captain Carey paid another visit to the room where the body lay and found ashes in the stove. which may account for the missing skirt and waist and the missing handkerchief which Chun says he saw between the girls teeth.
 Police Theory of Leon's Escape.
 The discovery today that Leon was bred an actor and the knowledge that all Chinese actors are trained to take female parts did not on second thought greatly impress the police with the idea that he would SO disguise himself. Chinese women in this country are mo- ticeably scarce and the very fact that one had been seen travelling would be enough to excite curiosity It Is much more probable. the police believe, that their man either shipped as a sailor or cook. or has worked his way south into some of the obscure Chinese col- onies on the outskirts of New Orleans, Baltimore or Galveston.
