 E1sie's brother John said she had gone to Waterbury several months ago while the family lived in Stamford, and on their moving to Bridgeport came here a few weeks ago, She has been working in the restaurant about six weeks. Although she had not taken the family into her confidence, she told other acquaintances that sine was to wed Mckay on Easter Sunday. That was before she met Kelley.
 Kelley, who is several years her sem for, is a good natured chap who visit ed the restaurant daily. In this way he formed what he thought was mere " passing acquaintance. he says, while she apparently regarded their re- lations as more deeply involved.
 The brother says Elsie entertained Mckay here several times. but a cou- pie of weeks ago wrote him not to call any more, and told her family she was glad she had found out that she didnt t care for Mckay. intimating that her affections had found a new object. They had heard nothing further from Mckay. Kelley had never called at the house, they say. and all they knew of him was an occa sional mention of is name by the girl.

 MURDERER
 CAPTURED
Tn Desperate Fight Detec- tives Run Down Sing Sing Culprit in Trolley Car.
Especial from United Press.)


 New York, March 17.-Following a chase through the streets and a des- l-erate fight in Columbus avenue trolley car, three detectives today lodged in the West Side prison Alex ander Devoe, the murderer of Lefty Boyle, who escaped from Sing Sing prison where he was serving life term on March g. Following the escape the detectives took up a watch on Ida Burger. known to the under world as Ida the Goose" over whom the quarrel started that resulted in the killing of Boyle.
 Last night they saw two men enter her house on West Sand street. The detectives tried to get in but were refused admission and took up posi- tions about the house. Today the two men came out and started down the street on run with the detec- tives in pursuit Lieutenant Mugge was outsprinting the pair when they boarded the trolley car with the of fcers at their heels. Mugge was the only one to get aboard the car and at once mixed it with the pair.
 The passengers started to interfere, not realizing what was going on and Mugge pulled the bell rope, stopping the car. He then drew his revolver and showed it against DevOe'S throat The latter continued to struggle but Lieutenants Tenor and Gaynor came ficer and both men were overpoWer- ed.
 When locked up Devoe was quick lv identified and the Sing Sing of ficials notified while his pal and the Burger woman were locked up a, charge of assisting 9 prisoner to escape

Broken hearted because her infatua- ton for Dennis Kelley, an undertaker's s assistant. of Hanover street extension. was not reciprocated, Elsie Olson, IT and pretty a waitress at the Paris restaurant, S76 Main street, made a sensational and possibly successful at tempt to end her life with a draught of carbolic acid in the restaurant at 10:30 this morning. Hundreds of pass ersby gathered about the big windows of the eating place while other en- ployes and the ambulance corps work ed over the struggling victim. still de- ternnined to die. freeing her stonach of as much as possible of the deadly fluid before rushing her to St. Vim cents hospital. Late this afternoon she was in a critical condition. Her father, a building contractor had been summoned from Midd1etown. and her mother. brothers and sisters were call ed from 70 High street to her bed side
 Elsie was so enamoured of Kelley that after but few days passing ac- cuaintance with him as patron or the restaurant. she wrote a letter dis missing a former sTitor. Frank Me Kay, a railroad brakeman of Water bury Conn. Kelley declares he thought little of the girls manifesto tions of friendship for him. regarding them more as evidence of her good na- tlre than any tender regard
 She had written letter, probably H. home at 10 o'clock this morning for her place of employment. Last night she remained out until after midnight, something out of the ordinary for her. and her mother questioned her as to where she had been. She said she was at a ball in Fairfield. Kelley was not with her.
 Just before she went out, she laid the letter on a table, and her older brother. John. out of curiosity shat -h- ed it up to read the address. She sprang at him furious1y and tore the Inissive from his hand. He was sur prised at her conduct. but attached little significance to it until later. He had read only Keney's name when she tore the letter from his grasp.
 Shortly after 10 o'clock Elsie entered L. F. Curtis pharmacy at Main and Elm streets. and smilingly asked for 10 cents worth of carbo1ic acid. Her apparent good nature disarmed the clerks of. any suspicion they might have had otherwise. and they sold the poison without question. She proceed ed directly to the restaurant, and pass ing from front to rear, entered the basement in which are the dressing rooms.

 When the Whiting Mfg. Co., asked for the installation of a sewer in Bishop avenue it was discovered that the territory occupied by the silver company's plant and that adjacent any gravity sewer on account of a deep depression in Bishop avenue.
 Engineer McKenna decided to build the Syphon sewer. The salient point was to have the piping sealed tightly so that the syphon would work per fectly. This was accomplished and the sewer works like a Charm.

 Philadelphia, March 17.-With the .rriyaI in thecity today of State Sen ator McNichol, United States Senator Penrose and Recorder Ware, the striking trolley men became more hopeful.

stratford, March 17.-lt's a great day in the old town today. And this has no reference to St. Patricl's Day, either. The end of trolley procrasti- between the selectmen and the New Haven Railroad Company are con c1uded. The termination is announC- ed in a letter written by Vice Presi- dent Calvert M. Townley, in which he asserts that the railroad has made a ''just proposition" relative to the and positively refuses to go further.
 While there are many people here who had hoped that the railroad the expense of building four feet of n1acadam on Barnum avenue, yet it is realized that there is now no open ing for further delay. The "O1d guard'' having reached the end of it's resources must cut bait, fish.
 It is morally bound, in the town meeting to be held early next week. Stiles Judson, under which the se- lectnen will approve the plans of the ten feet of macadam on either side, and the town will appropriate about $3,O0O, which will pay for an addi- tional two feet of macadam on each side of the road.
 Some conjecture is abroad as to what the attitude of MT. Judson will be: But that is easy. MT; Judson will come into the meeting to super wise the execution of his own plan. He will advocate the program which he himself has outlined, and in so doing will bring back to himself the wavering affection of Q majority of his fellow townsmen.
 Had the 'told guard" ten more of it's friends in the same position, it might, like Sodom of old, be saved. The "machine'' in Stratford is doom ed. The voters got too long a look at it's methods while the trolley fight was in progress
 Judson, however, is different. He has sense. He is the brand pIucked from the burning. He is that sheep that wandereth from the fold and is brought back.
 There will be more rejoicing over his leap to safety than sorrow over the ninety and nine that are still lost.
