IN THE CITY COURT

Joseph Perry was found guilty of as- sault with intent to kill Albert Will Hams, and was bound over to the Su-
 perior court under a bond of $500
 There was a cloud of witnesses and spectators in the city court to hear the case. William and Perry quar- reled in August over the affections of girl who was found drinking with Williams in Sam Chase's saloon in Railroad avenue. Perry followed the couple and made a partially success with a razor. Perry disappeared the day after the cutting but was captur- ed last week in New York.
 John Nemugud and John Becker were convicted of assaulting and wounding Thomas Kuczman, in a fight in the rear of Suchanowski's saloon, Pembroke street and Berkshire ave- nue, Saturday night.
 fKuczman lives at 88 Hallam street. The testimony demonstrated that Ne snugud aided in the cutting and he was fined $10 and costs by Judge Pull man Becker was fined $25 and costs.
 w. C. Ball was bound over to the Superior court in bonds of $500 on charge of theft from the premises of William Pfau at the Amazon cafe. Ball is also awaiting trial on a charge of arson committed last summer. Ball was captured in New York by Detec- tive Cronan. Ball comes from a good family and is well educated. He wants to pay the penalty for his wrong doing and then go back to the South and begin life anew. He attributes his fall to the allurements of a sport ing life He pleaded guilty in the city court this morning.

DASHING SOLDIER. DOUBLE DESERTER.
 UNDER ARREST
Pretty Widow Brown Be- came Bride, With Pride,
 of Frank Mcbride.
Soldier Clashes Mother-in- Laws Check and Disap- pears With Proceeds Also Runs Away from Marine Corps-Deserted Wife Will Press Charge.

Information has reached the police of this city that Corporal Frank Nc.
 Bride is now under arrest at the Brooklyn Navy Yard, charged with de- sertion from the Marine Corps. Me- Bride is wanted in this city for for
 gerry. He came to this city last Oc- tober on a furlough, and in the West End got acquainted with Mrs. Julia Brown, a pretty little widow, who
 made a comfortable living by conduct Ing a little ice cream parlor and to-
 bacco store at 321 Hancock avenue. Mcbride was a handsome young fel-
 low and a favOrite with the girls He
 wooed the widow with an impetuosity
 that she was unable to withstand, and
 the couple were married on election day. He busted himself about the lit-
 tie store for a week. The bride was suprenely happy
 With Mrs. Mcbride lived her mother. Mrs. Mary Huboy. A week after the wedding Mrs. Huboy received a check for $29S. 1t had been customary for Mrs. Brown, before her marriage, to to Joseph Nebenzah1. who owned the store, and paying the rent receive the balance in cash. Mrs. Huboy gave the check to Mcbride to deliver to Hebenzahl, who was to call later .and turn the balance due Mrs. Huboy over to her, after he had cashed the check Mcbride represented that he was the son of Mrs. Huboy and asked Neben- zahl to give him one of his own checks for the balance due Mrs. Hu- boy. This was done and Mcbride at tempted to get the check cashed at the bank on which it was drawn. He failed. and returning to Nebenzahl in- duced him to accompany him to the bank and identify him. Thus Mcbride received $273.
 He disappeared and has not been heard from until his arrest on the Bowery, in New York. last week, by the United States officers. His ar rest was reported to the police here. He will probably be brought back af- ter his trial for deSertion.
 His wife went to Brooklyn, Monday, and had a. conference with Mcbride, who imDlored her to spare him and not to press the charge. He told her that he was ashamed of himself and that he could not pluck up the neces- sary courage to write to her, but that he had written after his arrest Mrs. Mcbride will probably press her charge.

TAFT AND SHERMAN
 DECLARED ELECTED
Electoral Vote of States for President and
 Vice President Formally Counted.
Joint Session of Senate and House Com. pletes the Election Today-Taft Gets S2l Votes and Bryan l62-An Elab. crate Ceremony.
Special from United Press. )

Washington, Feb. 1G-With impress sive ceremony, the closing scene of the Presidential election was enacted to- day in the hall of the House of Rep resentatives.
 | In joint session the members of the Senate and of the House of Represen- tatives of the national Congress met and counted the electoral votes for President and Vice President and de-
 clared the election of Wm. Howard Taft, of Ohio, and James Schoolcraft Sherman, of New York.
 After tellers appointed by both houses, and representing both political parties, had carefully scrutinfzed the
 returns from the several States, Vice
 President Charles w. Fairbanks an nOunced that out of the 4S3 votes in
 the electoral college 321 had been cast
 for Taft for President: 821 for Sherman
 for Vice President; 162 for William J.
 Bryan for President, and 162 for John
 W. Kern for Vice President.
 Incidentally the fact was recalled
 that it was the largest vote ever cast
 for candidates for President in the his
 tory of the United States, the recent admission of Oklahoma having added
 seven votes to the electoral college since this ceremony was performed four years ago.
 The joint session began at 1 o'clock in the presence of a notable assem- blaze. Admission to the galleries was only obtained by card and these points of observation were crowded with the wives and friends of members. Mrs. Taft and Mrs. Sherman, with a large party of friends, including Mrs. Roose- welt and Mrs. Fairbanks and members Of their families, were interested spec tatOrS. and the diplomatic gallery was we'll filled with the representatives of foreign governments eagerly watching the process of the election of @ Presi- dent in the greatest Republic on earth.
 After about an hour Wyoming's name, the last on the list was reached and with the announcement of her vote, the Vice President rapped for order. At his request Senator Bur rows counted the tally sheet and an- nOunced that the record showed that the whole number of electoral votes cast had been 483; that of these PAP constituted a majority; that William Taft and James S. Sherman had received 321; and Vim. Jennings Bryan and John w. Kern had receiV- ed 162.
 The Vice President then repeated of fact declaring that 1t would be deemed sufficient notifica- ton of the election of Taft and Sher- man. and directing that the result be spread upon the journals of both House and Senate. This terminated the ceremony.

PRIVILEGE OF EMINENT DOMAIN ALSO DE- HANDED IN AMENDMENTS TO BE SUBMIT
 TED TO GENERAL ASSEMBLY, s
General Henry A. Bishop Makes Provisions of Proposed Bills Public Saying Directors Have Nothing to Con- ceal-Te1m to Be Three Years.

Tomorrow at a meeting of the Leg islature at Hartford a bill will be in- troduced amending the general public library act of April 13, 1881, which will provide that the directors of the Bridgeport Public library elect their own. successors subject to the approval of the Common Council, instead of their being appointed by the Mayor as at present. Also another bill will be offered restoring the condemnation privilege which, through a misunder- standing in the legislative committee, was left off two years ago. This merely allows the library directors to condemn property, hold hearings, etc., in case of the purchase of a library site. in accordance with the general acts. It is a protective measure sim ply.
 Mayor Lee, who is the one most af- fected by the proposed bill of the li- brary directors, is heartily in favor of it. While it takes away his power of appointment, 1t provides for the man. agement of the library under the most favorable conditions.
 The chief reason for this act is the fact that the directors serve in asdual capacity. Not only are they directors Of the institution, but they are also

MIDWIFE VICTIM
 OF NEW SWINDLE
Flim-Flammer Represent ing Himself to Be Agent for State Board of Health .Victimizes Women.

A shrewd flirn-flam artist, who gives his name as Dr. J. E. Myers of Hart ford, "agent for the State Board of Health, has been working among the mid-wives of the city with more or less success. He has called on sev- eral women engaged in practice here, representing that he was sent from Hartford to register them and issue licenses. = Only one worndn has re- ported that she has been victimized. This is Mrs. Victoria Tasquasitel1o of 1916 Main street.
 The fellow who styled himself pr. Myers told Mrs. Tasquasitello that her license had expired and it would be necessary for her to take out a. new one before she could do any more bus mess. The midwife was alarmed. The license Myers said would cost her $50. After a conference, in which the woman told him she had only $10 and had urgent cases on hand, Myers agreed to accept the $10 and allow her to do business until he returned with the new license, when she could pay him the remaining $40. The doctor departed, promising to return on Thursday. A talk with her friends convinced the midwife that she had been duped and she reported the mat ter to the police.
 .Dr. Myers is about 25 years of age,

KNOX'S RIGHT TO SIT WITH CABINET
 NOW IN QUESTION
Constitutional Point Raised Which May Bar Him as Secretary of State.
Especial from United Press.)

(Spec1aI rom Un1ted FFeSS.1
 Washington. Feb. 10-Senator Knox and his friends are busily engaged to- day in studying constitutional law They are eagerly seeking some way by which the question of his eligibility to the place of Secretary of State in President Taft's cabinet may be so an- swered as to enable him to take the proffered appointment. But they are not sanguine of success and it looks now as if MT. Taft might have to look elsewhere. It all comes from the fact that the salary of the cabinet officers was raised two years ago from $S,0C0 to $1OG0O Senator Knox was a, mem Der of the Senate when that law was passed but was serving a term that did not expire until 1911. When MT. Taft was elected and MT. Knox ap- pointed this fact was entirely over look ed.

l ganization have always been quoted l four or five points higher than the de
 behtures issued under the seal of tht New Haven Road.
 | MT. JuGsOn remarked that this wa: | indeed true, dilated upon the inquiry
 of permitting either of these securities | to be received for deposits in savings
 banks. and read the Massachusett ts law. to show that under the public Utilities commission there the capi
 talization of street railways has beer kept down to $5000O per mile of single i track. Against this he set the capi 1 talization of the Connecticut con1pany's l tracks, at $15O,000 per mile, to show l that the public has suffered and vii continue to do so.
 No little talk hinged upon the course to be pursued to secure the passage o1 the utilities bill. MT. Judson suggest. ed early action by the business asso- citations of the state, 8 demand upoI the judiciary committee for early hearings upon the bill, and the desig- nation of large committees to attend those hearings. Incidentally MT. Judson said that the proposition for a public utilities bill was contained in the Democratic plat from, and was made the platform o1 after consultation with the party lead CTS.
 If a Republican senate does not make good the promises of MT. Lilley, by and in behalf of the Republican party, MT. Judson had no hesitation in saying that the people would be entirely justi- fled in rebuking the Republican party at the polls.
 Senator Arnold suggested that the utilities bill at present is before the General Assembly only as a part of a report. He thought that the bill should be independently introduced.
 Senator Manwaring said that he was anxious to learn about the bill, but he was not sufficiently familiar with it's meaning as yet to talk to the sub- ject.
 Representative Bartlett said that as a member of the judiciary committee, to which the report of the utilities commission is committed for action it would be improper for hirn to talk about it.
 Rep. Clark also was not prepared to state his views upon the proposed leg islation.
 Senator Holzer was absent, having, it was said an important engagement elsewhere.
 The association will work in conjunc- ton with the State association, which is urging the passage of the bill and under its direction. A committee of the local association, which includes it's Attorney Judge Carl Foster, has been appointed to go over the bill, in search of defects.
