The latter dividend is unchanged, but the rate on.-the com mon stock is increased one-quartef of one per cent over the previous quarter. Steel common has been paying twoper cent annually since 1907. In 1906 tt was only one-half per cent, while there was no dividend in 1904 or 1905.
 It is understood that the decision as to the common stock dividend was reached as a compromise between di- rectors who had different views as to the increase.

EXTENSION OF CHARTER
Of the WiIIimantic and Southbridae
 Street Railway Company.
Especial to The Bulletin. )

Hartford July 27.AThe senate this morning passed the bill which will make the charter of the Willimantic and Southbridge street railway com pany good for the next two years, if the company starts to build within a little less than that time. The spe- cific extension of the charter in the bill is to November 1. 1910, and if the company has at that time completed at least 2d per cent. of the construc- tion of its line. the extension automat- ically extends to the rising of the next general assembly, from which there will have been time to get a further extension.
 When this matter was before the railroads committee some time since it was stated that the reason for the charter not being utilized heretofore lay in the inability of the promoters of the new line to interest capital; but 1t was felt that now that conditions over the country were growing so much better and real prosperity seem ed so near it would be much easier to get the line built, for 1t was be- lieved that it would be paying prop osition. The report here now is that there are the best of prospects that it will be started within a year and the senate passed the bill, which has passed the house, oh that basis.

MRs. SUTTON IS MADE
 COMPLAINANT IN THE CASE.
Inquiry Adjourned Until Arrival of Lieutenant UtIey from Abroad.

Annapolis Md, July 27-The rather informal inquiry which naval board began a week ago into the circum- stances of the tragic death of Lieut.. James N. Sutton of the marine corps suddenly assumed much more formal character today, when the government placed itself on the defensive and ruled that Mrs. James N. Sutton, mother of the young lieutenant, was complainant in the case and direct accuser of sew eral officers of the marine corps.
 The governments sudden change Of altitude came at the suggestion of Major Leonard, judge advocate of the board of inquiry, when Mrs. Sutton was talled as a witness today.
 The ruling was a surprise and was objected to very hotly by Mrs. Suttons counsel The court sustained the judge advocates position and all the young officers named were called into court and notified that they had been made parties defendant to the inquiry and henceforth had the right to be present md cross examine witnesses.
 The hearing adjourned until Lieut.. Harold Utley. material witness, now ytationed on the battleship North Caro- lina has returned to this country, and the inquiry will be resumed probably Aug. 10.

1 Thaw, she said, has posed as theat- rical agent and had lured the girls to his rooms with promises of en- gagements. When she remonstrated with him, she testified, his excuse was that the girls weren't smart enough and could not fill their positions, and deserved a beating" She testified fur ther that Tllaw had frequently behav- ed in a violent manner in her pres ence and that she considered his acts lairrational. Witness FierceIy Attacked on Cross Examination. District Attorney William Trayers Jerome had full charge of the case for the state today, and it was he who brought Out the damaging testimony against Harry Thaw. Mrs. Merrilps testimohy was stopped when MT. Je- rome intimated that it might injure innocent persons. Under cross exami- nation by Charles Morschauser, coun- sel for Thaw, the witness was attacked fierceIy He succeeded in bringing out the fact that she had recently been ar rested on charge of perjury after an unsuccessful suit to recover s100,000 damages from a man. The woman emphatically denied that she kept any of the money that passed from Thaw through her hands.
 "Then why did you stand for all this from MT. Thaw?" asked MT Nor schauser.
 ."Oh, I felt sorry for him." was her answer.
 Evelyn in Court but Was Not Called.
 Evelyn Nesbit Thaw slipped quietly into court during the proceedings to- day, but did not testify. She smiled at Thaw several times during the aft ernoon, but he paid nc attention to her.
 Alienists Testify for Thaw.
 Aside from the Merrill woman's tes- timony, the alienists took up the re- mainder of the proceedings and testi- fled in Thaw's behalf When D. Brit ton D. Evans, who made a report two years ago declaring Thaw insane, said today that he had reversed this opin- ion, this gave MT. Jerome an oppor- tunity for telling cross examination. He brought out the wide divergence of the experts opinion two years ago and now, but Dr. Evans was quick to explain that the report made two years ago was for the private guidance of Thaw's attorneys and had -contained only such medical evidence as would tend to support the contention that Thaw was insane at that time Harry Thaw himself may take the stand tomorrow.

HUBERT LATHAM AGAIN
 FALLS INTO ENGLISH CHANNEL
British Aercnaut, Badly Injured, Taken from Wreck of His Machine and Put to Bed in Hotel-Failed Almost in the Moment of Victory.

Dover, England, July 27.-Hubert
 Latham's second attempt to fly across the English channel ended disestrously today. Almost in the moment of vic- tory his monopiane fiuttered down into the sea two miles beyond the Admir- atty pier like a bird with broken wing. Thousands of people crowding the waterfront saw the fall and for nearly half an hour they were kept in suspense, not Knowing whether the daring aeronaut had met death or had again been rescued from the water. Picked Up by 6sttIeship Pinnace. A flock of large and small craft raced to the scene of the disaster, and pinnace from the British battleship Russell picked up the funlucky flyer and put him aboard a French torpedo boat destroyer. After a surgeon had attended to his injuries Latham was brought ashore and he was taken to the Lord Warden hotel. His face was bandsged and bleeding end his nose was broken. The machine, badly wrecked. was hoisted from the boat to the dock
 Made Greater Speed Than Frenchman. Latham's flight to the moment of it's sensational finish, in some respects eclipsed Bleriot's- He made greater speed, being only twenty minutes in the air from the time he left the coast of France. Apparently he steered a straighter course than Bleriot as ~- was making directly for Dover when he fell.
 Machine Fell Like Wounded Bird.
 The disastrous ending of the flight furnished a dramatic scene. Thousands of people had gathered here, many of them carrying telescopes, marine and field glasses and namaraS Sonn fWo French torpedo boats, which preceded the aeroplane, were seen approaching at a furious pace, thick clouds of smoke puffing from their tunnels
 Fourteen minutes after an airship was discerned heading straight for the center of the town. The rapidity of its flight was evidenced by the quickness with which it grew larger and assumed birdlike outlines. Suddenly 1t began to slacken speed at the same time gliding toward the gurface of the ocean. II fluttered a few times and fell like a wounded eagle.
 The aeroplane dropped with a lateral incline to the sea. There 1t 1oated, although only those with glasses could make out that it had not sunk The excitement while the boats were dart ing to the rescue was intense, but soon a fleet of all kinds of craft gathered around the wreck.
 Crowds cheered the Bsrdseed Hero.
 It was nearly o'clock when a tor pedo, boat came alongside the Prince of Wales pier to land Latham and his machine, which was seen to be much larger than Bleriot's little fiier, and the crowds cheered the bandaged hero enthusiastically. He was followed to the hotel by thousands, all trying to learn the details of the accident.

BLACK SPOT WITH COMET TAIL CROSSING THE SUNS FACE.
Distinctly Seen Several Times by Cap
 tain of Fruit Steamer Fsrragut.

Boston, July 27.-The United States Photographic station has been advised of distinct black spot with a comet like tail, travelling across the surface of the sun as seen by Captain J. Jen- sen, commander of the fruit steamer Admiral Farragut, in port today from Jamaica.
 Captain Jensen stated that he saw the spot through the colored glass of his sextant when off Charleston, s. C.. Off Cape Hatteras, the captain took another observation. The spot had moved in a southwesterly direction, while a smaller spot seen on the pre- vious occasion had disappeared. On Sunday last, when the Fayragut was off Nantucket, the phenomenon was again visible. Captain Jensen said that comets crossing the sun gen. erally precede seismic disturbances.
