MIDDLEbROOk'S
 AUTO HIT BOY
Lad Had Close Call Thanks tC Careful Handling of Machine
 by Driver
(South Norwalk SentineI1


 Joseph Lydon. a messenger boy for the Postal Telegraph Co.,, sustained painful bruises about the body and miraculously escaped more serious in juries Thursday morning when he was struck by an automobile under the Washington street bridge.
 The automobile was owned and was being operated by W. F. MiddlebrookS of Bridgeport, whose careful driving saved the boy from more serious in 1urfes. The women in the car, who took the whole performance as a huge joke, laughed merrily as little Joe, who is an orphan but an industrious little fellow was being carried to the office. Those who saw the accident sympathized with MT. Middlebrook. for apparently he took the accident to heart and criticized the women in no uncertain terms.
 The automobile was coming down North Main street at the time of the accident while Lydon was running down the sidewalk. also going south. A freight train was laundering over the bridge at the time, deadening ev- erything else in the way of sound Suddenly the hustling blue figure shot diaxonally across the street. At the same time the auto ran into the de- pression and before the driver could stop the machine he had struck the little fellow a glancing blow.
 Lydon's suit was torn to ribbons when Constable J. J. Goodwin pick ed him up and he was pretty badly injuries, but is expected to be out again tomorrow. MT. Middlebrook who was no wise at fault was not de- tained

Commissioners Order Building to Be Cut
 Down to Half Size

The Building Commission has sent a letter to James McFarlane, who built a building in Read street without a permit, telling him that if he will cut down his building to one story a permit to build it will be considered by the board as new business. Mo Farlane asked for permission to build a barn to cost $99 and used the burn ed timber from the old frame struc> ture at Union Square and Main St. He represented the structure would cost s99 but proceeded to build it be- fore the board had acted upon it. MT. McFarlane was having a cellar dug alongside of the barn.
 Because of the height of the build. ing the building commission suspected that MT. McFarlane was eventually going to move his $99 barn onto the cellar and finish I'D the structure as a five roomed dwelling. One of the workmen employed upon the job told Assistant Building Inspector ward M. Cowles that he understood the build ing was going to be moved onto the cellar and made into house.
 If MT. McF'arlane does not desire to cut down the height of the build ing the commission will order him to remove the structure altogether

CLERK AND LUNCH WAGON MAN UNDER
 ARREST FOR THEFT
Public Market Accuses Pair of Conspiracy to Defraud the Market.

Lewis O. Taylor, proprietor of a lunch wagon anchored at Seaview and Stratford avenues and Edward Burke for several years one of the best known clerks in the East Side branch of the Bridgeport Public Market, were arrested this noon in connection with an alleged conspiracy to defraud the market.
 Taylor was turned over to the po- lice at the Second Precinct station by the manager of the market. The manager told the police he had been suspicious for some time that Taylor and Burke were defrauding the store. and today he kept the pair under surveillance.
 Taylor was driving off with tub of butter, about 60 pounds, when the manager walked out of the store, climbed into the wagon, and insist ed that he should drive to the police station. After Taylor had been turn ed over to the police, Doorman Burke was sent out from the state house to arrest the clerk, who did not know what had taken place.
 Both Taylor and Burke were locked up. Burke lives at 197 Harriet street.
 Taylor claims to have bought the butter from Burke, on credit, but as the stores does a cash business,' the manager told the police that the story did not deserve consideration.

MAIN ST. REAL
 ESTATE SOLD
 AT A BARGAIN
Messrs. Felix Lyman and H.
 J. Seeley Buy Building in Which They Are Located

Jesse S. Nash sold this morning the Main street property just north Of State street, east side, which bears one of the city's oldest landmarks. It is the low old fashioned frame building occupied by Felix Lyman, the optician and Henry J. Seeley, the photographer, and the purchasers are Messrs. Lyman and Seeley who paid about S26,0 900 for the property This is cheap for Main street real estate but the land with its 26 it. frontage only has a depth of 50 it.
 The new owners of the property will hold it to protect their own busi- nesses and will probably develop 1t in times to come.
 The building was occupied for years by the late Turney Hall and the firm or Hall & Allen who sold many of Bridgeport's oldest living citizens their first toys. and who carried a line of fancy goods and Yankee No- tions.'
 The property was never improved because of the peculiar conditions surrounding it. The original owners were a family named Ellsworth. Mrs. Ellsworth upon her death gave her husband, then in middle life the use of the property. The husband in turn then executed a most unique lease. Although he did not own the fee in the property he gave the late Turney Hall lease of the property during his iEllsworth's) natural life at $500 per year. Fortunately for MT. Hall MT. Ellsworth lived to be a nonogenarian. In fact he lived to be nearly as old as MT. Hall. For years MT. Hall had the cheapest rent in Main street and subrented at hand some profit. About 13 years ago after the death of Ellsworth Jesse 8. Nash bought in the property at an auction held in the office of Judge " H. Kelsey

Especial from United Press.)
 New York, Nov. 26-(Opening)-The stock market continued in the same dull rut in which it has rested for so long, price movements at the open ing and in the early dealings showing little variations from those of the late trading yesterday.
 Il a. m.-During the first hour the tone held firm on minor dealings. Hardly any of the issues in which transactions were recorded showed a net change of as much as half point at the end of the hour.
 Government bonds unchanged; other bonds dull.
 Closing.-Continued dul1ness pre- vailed in the last hour. Dealings were small and price movements con- fined within narrow range, some of the leading issues, including Union Pacific, Reading and St. Paul, de- clining about F with fractional re- sessions in the industrials, but these losses were, in part, recovered in the later dealings, leaving the majority of issues slightly under yesterday $ close. General Electric was in fairly good demand at a fractional gain. Firmness was shown in Copper shares. Both Smelling and Anal garnated ruled a shade higher. The tone at the close was dull.
