Game and Fish Warden Thomas de-

HAWLEY HEARS
 FROM GRAHAM
Tank Falls on Man Who Killed PeddIer
 Years Ago.

Peter Graham, formerly of this city, is now to undergo a fourth operation at a hospital in Elizabethtown, N. J., for an injury to his leg which he re- ceived some time ago when a tank 60x30 feet fell on him, crushing his foot and hip. He writes to his old friend and acquaintance, Sheriff Hawley, and says: 1T was as near deaths door as any one wants to be- He says he is lonesome and that a letter from the Sheriff would cheer him up.
 Graham, it will be remembered, about ten years ago killed a peddler whom he found in the attic of his home. near Beardsley Park. The peddler was sorting over lot of old junk and rags when Graham found him. Graham beat him so hard for being in his house that the peddler died. Graham became so alarmed at his Tnisdeod that he placed the mur- dered man into his junk wagon and drove him to the tracks of the Berk- shire railroad and then up a narrow lane where he let the horse go as he pleased. The murder was subse- quently traced to Graham, who was sentenced to States prison for seven years. After his sentence was served he came to this city and was employed with the American Tube & Stamping Co. at their East End plant. He married and settled in Stratford. Moth ing is known of the whereabouts of his wife.

 Belgrade, March 25.-Crown Prince George today renounced his right to the throne in a letter to Premier Nova kovitch and announced that he would shortly go abroad to escape from the rumors that are now current that he was responsible for such serious in jury to one of his servants that the fellow died after an operation had been performed Immediately upon re- ceipt of the letter the Premier called the Cabinet in special session.
 King Peter himself presided at the Cabinet meeting which debated at great length the Crown Princes start ling step. A week ago a servant of the Crown Prince named Kolakovitch was taken to the hospital suffering internal injuries. He died from the effects of an operation. A Belgrade newspaper today declares that the in jurieS were sustained in an encounter with the Crown Prince and this is gen. erally believed.

He and his father came to blows a short time ago according to recent report, and his conduct of recent years has been such that many influential politicians favored having him inca pacitated from succession to the throne, the succession going to his younger brother Alexander.

the former having promised to support another man and then taking the nomination himself. He said he had refused to pledge himself to anybody. He said that he only consented to take the nomination after he had been strongly urged to do so.
 Senator Arnold replied that he un- derStood the situation to be that Sena- tor Paige was not to be a candidate and that Senator Holzer was to sup port MT. King. But if Paige was to stand Holzer was to support Paige
 Senator Silliman spoke in favor of overturning the committees report. He said he didn't believe a judge should be turned out of office unless there was a good reason for it.
 Senator Arnold received permission and took the floor again. He said they were not asking the Senate to displace any judge. The former judge had re- signed and all they were asking was for a. man in his place.
 Senator Rlakeslee referred to the fact that two years ago the Senate was obliged to thrash out matters made necessary by a divided repre- sentation from Bridgeport. "At this time," he said. i've are called upon again to settle matters that should have been taken care of at home. I will not move the previous question. but I believe that the senators had had enough Of the discussion.
 Senator Searls then took the floor. He was considerably agitated as re- suit of Senator BlakeSlee'S rema rkS and said that fin his capacity as Sen ate chairman of the judiciary commit tee his duty was to make a report. His whole plea was to support the report of the committee. He said that in the final vote in the committee, six ballots were for MT. Hull and four were for MT. Foster. He was one of the four He felt that the opinion of six should outweigh that of four and so a unanimous report was presented.
 Senator BlakesIee said he was glad to hear the leader take the position he had in reference to this matter. That if the Senate does not agree with Q report it had a right to vote against it. While he regretted to be at variance with Senator Searls he should vote against the committees report.
 Senator Peck, Danbury, said that he knew conditions in Bridgeport, hav- ing formerly lived there, and had con- versed with various people there. On the basis of this information, togeth- CT with the facts Senator Searls had stated that he was one of the four votes in favor of MT. Foster, he would vote against the report.
 The vote was then taken.
 Those voting yes were Alsop. Abbe, Middleton, Ludington, Blakeslee, Courtney, Shanley, Stiles, Heineman, Chase, Phillips, Holzer, Manwaring. Peck, Brinsmade, Silliman, Turner, Day, Goodwin, and Reed-20.

had said. He asked the committee not to change the charter. He said: l have never heard of any city being compelled to pay riparian owners Tor damages caused by laying harbor lines. It is all right to pay damages where the right to wharf out has been used It is wrong to pay anything where the right has not been used. According to my idea, people who own mud flats until the state abandonS its claim. The state owns the flats. not private per sons. The state only owns the flats, however, for the protection of navlga- tion. Any part of a harbor that is not needed can be filled in- This is proper But in the present case Bridgeport needs all it's harbor. Unless the city harbor line is kept where it is one owner may fill in eleven acres of the most valuable and the most central portion of it. We ought not to have to pay for protecting our own water way, which is for the use Of every body
 MT. Chamberlain then said that he owned some flats on Berkshire pond He thought the pond would be navl- gable water some day. In that case he would like a law that would give him something for mud flats outside any harbor line that might be estab- lished.
 Mayor Lee reviewed the harbor question as 1t existed in Bridgeport, expressing strong hostility to the city line.
 "I ask you,'' MT. Wilson. he said. ''if you won't admit that the City line is a spite line.''
 q do not admit any such claim," replied MT. Wilson.

NEW JUDGES CONFIRMED BY
 LEGISLATURE
Especial from United Press.1

Hartford, Mar. 25.-William H. Will Hams of Derby will be a judge of the Superior court as soon as Governor Lilley signs his commission. the reso- lution appointing him having passed both houses of the legislature to-day. In the House the vote was 153 to 2. The resolution was then rushed to the Senate where the vote was unanimous.

 Judge George H. Cowell was reap pointed to the district court of Water bury by a vote Qf 153 to and Deputy Judge Frederick M. Peaf1ey was also re-appointed by a. vote of 142 to 10. Af- ter a couple of years Judge Cowell reaches the age limit and Deputy Judge Peafiey will become judge of the court The resolution appointing Chas. E. Meggs of Waterbury to succeed Judge Peaf1ey as deputy judge passed the House by vote of III to 3.
 Among the meaS SureS favorably re- ported in the House to-day was a res oIution providing for a state armory in Greenwich at an expense of S15,000; the last came from the committee on military affairs and was referred to the committee on appropriations.

Owner Fought With Sleep All the Way From New York - He Was Dead Tired - Car Landed in Swamp Little Damaged, With Norris Uninjured.

Fighting sleep all the way from New York, William E. Norris, 1878 Fair field avenue, representative of the Bridgeport Paper Box Co.,, fell asleep at the steering wheel of a new S1, 300 Chalmers-Detroit automobile, while running along the Boston Post road, in a driving rafnstorm this morning and he Awoke to find himself and the car at the bottom of a. 12 it. embankment in Q swamp. about 200 feet east of Ash Creek bridge. in this city.
 Norris was uninjured except for a few bruises, although he was thrown which was broken in pieces. AL though the car had plunged over 12 foot embankment and carried the fence beside the road away, it escaped with only a bent forward axle. A wercking crew from the Rantz Motor Car Co.,, found the car turned over on Its side and after fighting it. proceed ed to haul it up into the roadway with a. block and fall.
 MT. Norris makes a business of run ming between this city, New York and Waterbury on business, and for the past three days and nights he has been on the go almost steadily. The car is covered and with the windshield for protection he left New York for this city.
 He felt dead tired when he started. but felt that he could make the run all right. The tracks made by the car in the wet roadway show that he must have kept awake until he reached the Ash Creek bridge for here the tracks made a snake like figure, shooting to north side of the road and then di- verting directly south through the rail fence and down the enlbankment. The car could not have been running more than 20 miles an hour or more damage would have been done. Mr. Morris extricated himself from the capsized car and after shutting down the engine proceeded to his home in an electric car, from where he telephoned to the Rantz Garage to go after the car.

WOMAN'S DRESS HELL INSPIRED
 SAYS PREACHER
Roseville, N. J., Presbyter- ian Minister, Arraigns Modern Fashions in No Uncertain Terms.
Special from United Press1

Roseville, N. J., March 25.-Rev. William Chapman, who presides over the destinies of the local Presbyterian church. has made a discovery. Amer Paris. and Paris gets it's fashions from HeH,'' he declared today. The fash ions have never been so diabolic as at present" he continued. 'The Devil ish effect of the present day fashion is that presented in the ideal of feTnin- ity, the childless woman.
 By no stretch of credulity can one think of the hapless, hfpless Directoire ideals. of the women last year and the coming fashions as pictured in the newspaper as conducive to children. The fashions are a subtitle reflection of the prevailing tendency to race sui eide, opposition to which formed one of the minor but persistent purposes of the many purposed MT. Roosevelt.
 Formerly a woman was proud of being fat. Now she strives for ema- counters one of these pitiful beings with her peach basket hat, her dress the lank lines of which make her seem like a, human triangle, with her shoul- ders for it's base and her feet for it's apex, he feels like quoting Satan S lines to Death: Whence and what art thou, unhappy shape? That durst, though grim and terrible, advance thy miscreated front athwart my way?
 women often follow foolish fashions But they lose their modesty by doing so. Their attire should be simple and modest Why, a. man can wear a frock coat and silk hat that he bought twenty years back and not be thought freakish.
 'There must come some retribution. The extravagant dressing of the day induces diScOntent among women. Many poor girls life has been wreck ed by the love of luxury and fine gowns. The time is ripe for the pull pit to stand together for needed re- forms along this 1ine.''

Woman Recognizes Boy
 When She Sees Him.
Janitor of School Picks Jones Out of Crowd Friends of the Whitlas Seeking a Motive for the
 Crime-Death of Woman Connected With the Case.
Special from United Press.)


 Cleveland, March 25-The Cleveland Grand Jury to-day is expected to hand down indictments for extortion and blackmail against H. Boyle and his wife, Helen, arrested in connection with the Kidnapping of Billy Whitla.
 Legal action is now all that remains of the famous case. So strong is the chain of evidence about the prisoners that the police made no attempt to record what occurred yesterday after noon at headquarters when Billy and his friends arrived from Sharon Billy positively identified Boyle as the "Mr. Jones' who stole him from school and brought him to this city and the wom- an as the Mrs Jones' who took care of him in the Granger Lodging House where he was imprisoned for three days and a half-
 Janitor Sloss of Billy's school in was the man that took the boy away last Thursday afternoon. Mrs. Boyle's conversation with Billy at police head quarters amounted practically to . confession. She greeted him by name when he entered and made no attempt to deny acquaintance.
 At Sharon the friends of the Whitla family are still trying to find some other motive for the crime than the de- sire for money. Several efforts have been made to connect relatives of the Whitlas with the kidnapping but with out success. If the Boyles had con federates they are thus far unknown and probably will never be arrested.
