The CHARGE MADE
Officials Permit Contractors
to lnjure Tree.

Indiscretion is being charged against
city officials in permitting contractors
to chop the roots Of trees in order to
put down cement walks. The chief
complaint is from owners OF property
on South Ninth street. The street
was lined with beautiful trees and in
many instances the roots Of these
trees encroached on the space it was
intended to use in part for the walk.
These big roots were chopped away.
The trees suffered and now about
twenty have died.
It is claimed the walks could have
been laid without damaging the trees.
It is maintained by the owners. the
cement could have been laid around
the trees leaving space for the wa
ter to percolate through. This was
done when the walks on North A

put down and the trees did not suffer-

Judge Brentano, today, by Attorney

Then here's to Sylvia, may she live
long and prosper.
Yesterday afternoon a short time be-
fore the hour of closing arrived, the
county clerk issued marriage license
to Clarence Wells and Sylvia Baily.
Sylvia has been very much in the lime
light since her arrival in this city in
mans clothing few days ago. The
couple was united in marriage at the
parsonage of the Rev. T. J. Graham
and have taken up life as husband and
wife.
The girl and Wells were taken from
bed at local hotel Thursday night
and removed to the city Jail. She told
a story of cruel treatment by a step
father at home and that she had run
away with her lover to seek a better
locality. Her husband Of yesterday is
y boiler maker Nv trade and he gave
up his job in the shop in which he was
employed to go with the girl in order
that she would not have to face the
dangers OF the world alone. She wore
mans clothing and cut her hair to re-
semble man, because she thought 1t
would help her the better to make her
living.
The "HaIl Brothers,"
After their arrival in Richmond the
two passed as the Hall brothers and
probably would have got away with
their scheme had not the girl broth

titled by local woman, who had met
her at Alexandria. She told police
man and that was the end of the ro-
nance. While not being willing to put
confidence in some parts of the story
Of the girl, the police authorities were
very loath to punish her and her
friend. They were shown unusual lem
iency for the sage Of humanity and as
an experiment. That the young folks
had good intentions is believed to have
been shown by their haste to do the
proper thing in order to follow the
path Of life together. The police court
officials have received universal CON-
mendation for their action In the mat
ter.

ORDINANCE IS
 LIKELY TO PASS
Aldermen it is Said Favor Title of Cap. tain for Heads of Second and Third Precincts.

The AIdermanic committee on Ordi- nances will meet this evening to con- sider an ordinance, abolishing the of foe of lieutenant in the police depart ment, and creating two more captain cies. It is understood that the ma jority of the Aldermen will favor it. It places the second and third pre- cincts in charge of captains. Lieu tenant w. H. Anderson is in charge of the Second precinct and Lieut.. John H. Redgate of the Third precinct. It is said to be the desire of the Police Commissioners to have each precinct in charge of a captain. The Second and Third precincts now are run all most under direct supervision of head quarters.
 The committee will also act upon a revision of the ordinances relative to patrol wagon driver. The place is ~to be abolished when the horse patrol wagon is displaced by an automobile. It is asked that the salary of the driver be made the same as that of a patro1man.
 Still another matter to be considered by the committee will be the petition of the property owners in Water street protesting against the issuing of a li- cense to L. B. SilliTnan to store more than 30 barrels of oil in his warehouse. The stock numbers 200 barrels at times and the insurance rates in the neigh borhood have been advanced.

SHIP BUILDER COULDN'T STAY
 FROM BOOZE
And For That Reason His Wife is Allow.
 ed a Divorce.

Superior Court Judge L. S. Burpee to-day handed down a decision giving decree of divorce to Ellen c. Mon tells of New Haven. who sued her hus- band. Joseph E. Montells of Greenwich alleging habitual intemperance and in tolerable cruelty. The decision sup ports the recommendation of John E. the evidence was heard. The commit tee found that while the charge of in temperance was sustained it could not find sufficient proof of intolerable cruelty so the decree is given on the former ground. The plaintiff asked for alimony but this is denied as an investigation into the financial condi- ton of the defendant showed that what property he has. real estate in Greenwich is mortgaged for it's full value.
 The couple were welded at Daytona Florida. in April. 1903 and resided in Greenwich, Conn. From Jan l. 1905, the committee finds that the defendant became progressively addicted to in toxicants and that because of bis con- dition he could not take care of his business He owned a ship yard and was valued at s25. 900 and was mort gagged for S20.000. His home at Green wich was valued at S20. 900 and it was for that sum. Whatever equity he had in the dry dock property he deeded to his mother whom he rep resented as being a creditor of his to the extent Of 5000.

AGAINST ELECTRIC
 MONOPOLY
Judiciary Committee Decides to Recon. mend Repeal of Obnoxious Law. State Will Await With Interest Fate of Measure When it Reaches the Two Branches of the Legislature.
Ry our Staff Correspondent. )


 Hartford, June 1S-For once the greedy little monopoly boy grabbed so big a. handful that he will probably have to let go in order to get his hand out of the pitcher and his knuckles- arc likely to be bruised as it is. The committee on Judiciary having decid- ed to recommend the repeal of the statute forbidding the sale of electric ity by one person to his neighbors in the same block, it is unlikely that the General Assembly will refuse to con- cur.
 It is felt here that the measure has all the marks that should condemn it to extinction. It is not even a gen. era1 law, but is confined in it's opera ton to twelve cities. In all other communities than these if g. person or a corporation wishes to do it's own lighting and also to light a neighbours premises, it may do so without hin drance of the law.
 The three bills introduced by Sena- tor Holzer, at the request of the coun- sel for the United Illuminating Com pany,4 will be adversely reported as a matter of course.
 But the incident is far from closed. It has had far reaching consequences in it's effect upon the course of the public utilities bill. The evidence as to the charges of electric light com panies in the State was so dramatica1- 1y presented by Stiles Judson, repre- senting the Rowland Dry Goods Com pany, that 1t attracted the attention of some of the most conservative men in the Assembly and has undoubtedly played a large part in convincing them that a commission ought to be estab- lished to supervise public service cor porationS and regulate rates.
