Although the New York police are
still trying to find out if the Sigel MUIR
der mystery is involved in any way
with the murder of DR.. LUX Wing, the
Chinese vice consul to New York, VINO

that Wong Bow Cheung, his assassin,
is insane. Cheung was remanded Mon

will investigate his sanity. Chinese
residents of New York who looked upon
DR.. Wing as their friend and protector
are incensed at the assassination. They
declare Cheung is an opium and drink
crazed fiend and the loss of his entire
family in the Boxer uprising upset his
mind. Cheung broke his silence long

Delegates TO Firemen's Convention
Norwich Companies Name Their Representatives to An
nual Meeting at New London - Fine Reception
Planned for Visiting Hremen There.

1t looked for a while as If the pro-
posed banquet would have to be elm
mated from the programme, but the
New London firemen are never back
ward about spending their money in
entertaining and they promptly de-
clared that if the citizens would not
supply the funds they would do so
themselves, and the result is that plans
have been perfected for a first class
spread at the Konomoc hose house on
the close of the first days session Of
the convention. The Konomocs have
all the essentials at the house for pre-
pairing and serving a feast, and as all
Of the companies will participate there
is no question about the completeness
of the menu or the excellence of the
service.
1t is quite a number of years since
the state firemen held a session in the
Whaling Town and the local firemen
are anxious to do the square thing by
the visitors. 1t has been decided to
keep open house and all of the COM
panies will have something to eat and
something to drink on hand for any OF
the guests who may drop in. 1t is
also likely that a band will be hired
and short parade made from the
meeting place to the Konomoc house
on the night of the banquet.
Since the last session of the state
convention at New London two new
companies have been added to the New
London department-the Pequots an6
the Northwests-both OF which organ
izations included many prominent citi-
zen in their respective parts of the
town. The increase in the membership
of the department will make it all the
easier to carry the burden of entertain
ing the delegates who will be there to
participate in the deliberations of the
convention.
Merchants and residents of the city
have been requested by the several
fire company Officers TO display flags
and bunting from their homes and
stores. At the same time as the con-
vention the Fire Chiefs club of this
state holds its annual meeting. which
will be at IL a. m. i'll Elks' hall.
Norwich bulletin., 1909-08-04

Firemen from all over the state will
gather in New London next Tuesday
for the annual meeting of the state
firemen's convention which met in this
city a year ago. Remembering the
very successful conduct of the conven-
ton here last year, the fire fighters of
our neighborfng city are hard at work
on plans to give all their visitors the
best kind of a time.
All the Norwich companies have
elected their representatives to attend
the convention. each being entitled to
one delegate and one alternate, making
the complete list as follows:
Chemical No. 3-Delegate, Frank
Wangstrom; alternate, John Nolan.
Engine No. delegate, Charles
T. Smith; alternate, Henry r. Taft.
Truck No. delegate. Albert NJ.
Herrick: alternate, Edward Slattery.
Chemical No. delegate, Henry E.

rum view LoHuOIl II Is reported Indt
funds are coming in slowly from the
public, but the firemen are going to
put their hands into their own pockets
and go ahead with the preparations.
1t was believed by the New London
firemen that in view of the valuable
services that they render to the city
that there would be no difficulty in Sc
curing ample contributions. from citi-
zens to provide a banquet to the visit
ors. but when they tried to collect they
discovered that the resp onses were
very meagre. There has been much
solicitation in New London lately of
money for various objects, making it
necessary for many to call a halt in
their contributions, and the firemen
have been sighted largely because they
were among the last to apply.
