WHO TURNED WRONG SWITCH ON TROLLEY AT BEARD'S CORNER?.
Officials of Connecticut Go. Do Not Admit That One of Their Elm
 ployes Did It. But it Seems to be Estab- lished That Current Was Gut Off From Pumps
 That Supply Air
 to Brakes.

In the matter of the accident at Boards Corner, Thursday evening, the officials of the Connecticut Co.,, do man of the car turned the wrong switch, thus cutting off power from his air pumps. and leaving the brakes without air to operate them.
 The officials believe that some per son. not an employe of the company, turned the switch maliciously.
 By a mishaD of this nature four per- sons were injured Thursday evening, at Boards corner, Milford, two of them seriously
 The car, being without air to operate it. the brakes rounded the curve at such speed that the passengers were thrown from it by centrifugal force.
 It is however a pretty we'll estab- lished fact that somebody turned off the current that operates the electric pumps. There are several buttons. or switches on the car. of similar design. They operate current to the lights, to the head light or to the pumps.
 Motorman Peter Daley had been in the employ of the company but two months.
 The officers of the company do not, however admit, that he turned the wrong switch.
 Supt. c. H. Chapman said this morn ing 'I would not care to say who the company suspects of turning the switch"
 The bonds of Motorman Daley and Conductor Whalen were reduced in Milford town court yesterday from $500 to $100. The men were released upon their own promise to appear Aug. 13. They are charged with racing a motor car.

JAP BARON AMAZED
 AT WALL STREET

New York. Aug. 6-Baron Oura, minister of agriculture and commerce of Japan, who is spending a few days here on his way home from the Ang- lo-Japanese exhibition in London, paid a visit to Wall street yesterday and came back amazed.
 .sNever have I seen anything like it,'' he said.
 'sIt seems to me you must have a wonderful physical strength to endure the pace you set. We Japanese have endurance, but we could not endure your business life-we should die or go mad. Your great Roosevelt called it the strenuous life, but I should call it the speedy life.
 "There is no need for the American to be jealous of the Japanese com mercially. The Japanese merchant can never catch up with the Amer1- can. In matters of finance 1t seems to me that you have nothing to fear from any nation in the world.
 Personally l do not care TOT so much speed. You work until you be- come the most highly organized of feeling for much makes life worth while.
 Greatly do I admire the independ- ence of your women. I do not know much about your political conditions, but it would seem only logical for your women to possess equal political rights, when in all other ways they have equal powers.
 "Japanese feeling towards America is almost affectiOnate. War will neV- CT come unless America starts it.

DOUBLE TRACK BETWEEN BOTSFORD
 AND SHELTON

Hartford, Aug. 6.-The office of the railroad commissioners was full Uf business yesterday with four hearings coming at Il o'clock, one of which was on a petition for a double track from Botsford in NeWtoWn to Shelton in Huntington and another was rela- tive to the ringing of a warning bell in New Milford, which resulted in the commissioners making arrangements with the railroad company's represen- tatives.
 ations in the line of railroad known as the Huntington Branch of the New Haven 6 Derby extension and the Newtown Branch of the Housatonic Railroad Company in the towns of Monroe, Newtown and Huntington, for the purpose of changing the loca- tion of parts of the line, to change the radius of the curves, the width of the layout the extent of the depot grounds, etc, will be decided in favor of the railroad company, as there was no opposition.
 The selectmen of New Milford en- tered a complaint to the railroad commission relative to the warning bell of the railroad company at the crossing near the J. Stuart Holpins part of the town, which rings for hours The people from New Mill ford did not appear. so the commits sioners arranged with the operating officials of the railroad company for the switching to be done at the north end of the freight yard instead of at the south end, which caused the ring ing of the obnoxious bell. The side tracks can be entered from either end.

PROCTOR
 SUICIDES His Body Found In Room In Warner Building
 Today. Ill Health and Domestic Troubles the Cause of
 Rash Deed.

Despondent over ill health and do- mestic trouble, George A. Proctor, aged 28, formerly of Milford, and of late living in a furnished room at 327 Fairfield avenue, drank an ounce of carbolic acid in his office on the top floor of the Warner building, late last night.
 His body was discovered this morn ing when the stenographer of the Boston Realty Co.,, in whose quarters Proctor had his desk, opened the of flee as was her custom at S:3O to- day.
 Proctor visited a physician last night complaining of pains in the chest. He secured a prescription. Entering Jamieson's pharmacy at Fairfield avenue and Broad street he bought an ounce of carbolic acid in- stead of having the prescription fill ed. At 10 o'clock he left the drug store and presumably returned to his office.
 Proctor's wife. a cripple living with her parents in French street, caused his arrest for non support July 6, and he was sentenced to two months in Jail unless he consented to pay her $5 weekly.
 He was reported then to be possessed of $25.OO0 worth of real estate, practi- cally all covered with mortgages.

Trunks that
 stand banging.

Seems as though there was foundation for the stor- ies about the baggage-man's delight in smashing a trunk open. Just watch them at their work. See how the trunks are hurled around. But time is short-and you want your trunk to be hand led properly.
 Best plan is to choose trunk that will stand the banging.
 Here are such:-
 Heavy sold trunks with top slated with hard wood. Each slat wrapped at end with metal. Heavy corners of stout metal in brass fin ish. Bolts of extra size with dowels on each side to pre- vent twisting of the lid. Bottom of sheet iron pro tected by slats. Bound with fiber and encircled by two heavy straps.
 Inside this trunk is lined with linen and has two trays.
 30 inch size-$7.5O.
 Riveted trunks with hard wood slats and sheet-ron bottom. Have three bands of iron encircling them that add to their strength; large dowe1s hold lid from being wrenched. Two trays make them easy to pack and linen lining insures good wear.
 32, 34 and 36 inch size $1O.
 Third floor.
