CROWS UNDER PlNNEY'S
 MASTER TOUCH
Superintendent of Union Metallic Cartridge Com rany Resigns to Accept Position With Western Concern.

Supt. Harry H. Pinney of the Un- ion Metallic Cartridge Co.,. who came to this city in April, 1907, has resign ed his position. MT. Pinney, although a native of Connecticut, came frurn the West, where he was instrumental in installing many of the factory systems now in use there. He was connected with the National Cash negister model plant at Dayton, Ohio. for several years.
 Neither MT. Pinney, nor his friends, have announced where he intends go- stood. however, that he s going back West to accept an opportunity that appeals to him greatly. It is said to he with a big concern, in different mes of manufacturing.
 The pleasantest relations have ex- isted between MT. Pinney and the management and employees Of the big concern and he has been universally liked by everyone. The company has not selected man for the vacant place.
 The ability of the resigned super intendent is attested by the giant strides the plant has made under his peneralship Big modern buildings have been built a giant shot tower has been erected and an industrial railroad constructed. The reservation of the company. with its water SUD- ply plant and territory, makes the works a community in itself. There is not a department that has not been remodeled, or made safer, under the direction of MT. Pinney. His going will be reeretted by all who have become acquainted with him in Bridgeport.

IDA WARRAL CUTS HER OWN THROAT
 FROM EAR TO EAR
Daughter of Mrs. Mary Ali bone, a Domestic Nurse, Suffered with Epileptic
 Fits
Had Recently Been Dis charged from Sanitarium, But Had Had Relapse, Which Worried Her.

Giving way to an attack of pro- found melancholy arising from almost continuous attacks of epilepsy. Ida daughter of Mrs. Mary Allibone, a domestic nurse at 76 DeForest ave- nue. attempted suicide at her mothers home, at g o'clock, this morning, while she was assisting her mother in the housework. Her condition is regarded as critical. pr. N. T. Pratt the family physician, who spent sev- eral hours with the would be suic de, said this afternoon the girl had an evep chance of recovery.
 Mrs. Allibone discovered her daugh- ter lying in a semi-conscious stage on the floor of a bedroom on the sec ond story of their home, at DeFor- est and Newfield avenues. Blood was streaming from two ugly gashes across her throat, almost from ear to ear. and the young woman was breathing with diff culty She had severed her windp pc.
 Mrs. Allibone rushed out to neigh bors. and telephoned for the family scene. He dressed the wounds and sewed the two ugly gashes together. When hesleft the home about noon the patient was resting comfortably.
 Miss Worral. the daughter of Mrs. Allibone by a former marriage has been subject to epileptic attacks since oh ldhood. Mrs. Allibone has placed her in private san tarium several times for treatment, but only tenn porary relief was afforded
 Last August previous to her la st visit to sanitarium, Miss worral in a moment of mania, seized a knife with which she pursued her mother through the house. She was dis armed before any damage had been done. She appeared much more cheerful than before, on her recent homecoming, but a few days ago, fol- lowing recurrence of the epileptic attacks, she became moody and morose.
 This morning while her mother was attending to the housework on the first floor, she went to the floor above. Mrs. Allibone has several boarders, among them a young man. cousin of the girl. Miss Worral ha ,i half finished making the bed when she discovered the mans razor. With this she inflicted the gashes from ear to ear, one of them almost severing the windpipe.

'NOLLED = DEAD" Police Blotter Discloses Sad Ending of Unfortunate HIS NAME MAY BE GRAHAM Supt. Birmingham Called Physician to Attend
 Man

The name "J. Graham" upon what appears to be portion of a pay envelope, and a ticket in a shot gun raffle. were the only clues to the identity of man about 26, who died before daybreak at St. Vincent's hos pital today, few hours after he had been removed from police headquar- terR
 Med cal Examiner Downs found a bruise upon the mans forehead but he believes this played no part in his death. Alcoholism and odema of the lungs were the causes of death entered by the official upon the death certificate. No one has cla med the remains which now await identifica- tion at Rourke & Rourke's morgue
 Graham was carried into police headquarters at o'clock last night He was apparently very weak and only partially conscious. Supt." Birm- ingham saw the mans plight as he was brought to the desk and at once summoned pr. E. C. Krause from the Emergency hospital.
 Dr. Krause kept the man under when he removed the prisoner to St. Vincent's hospital. He gradually sank until the end came early this morning. Supt. Birmingham sa d the arrest Of Graham came as a result of telenhone message from Lynch Bros stables. l.. c. Hit. carriage maker at Bulls Head discovered Graham in such a condition that he was unable to walk in the storm. He asbed men at Lynch Bros stable to call the patrol wagon. Policeman Patrick Corrigan went with Driver Wheeler to bring the man. He was in bad shape when they took charge of the prisoner.
 "Nolled-dead." was the grim entry made on the police records today when Graharn's case came up for dis posal in the city court.

CUMMINS WOULD REVISE TARIFF
 BY SCHEDULES
Especial from United Press.)

IOPtCIdt IIOiIf OiIItCI CSS'I
 Washington, Dec. 6-Senator Cum mins, of Iowa. sought to pave the way for schedule-by-schedu tariff revis on, by introduc ng. today two resolutions providing for modification of the Senate rules. One is design ed to prevent the opening up of the whole tariff question, by declaring out of order, all bills or amendments except those which apply to the schedule under considerat on. The other provides that a b'll, not report ed by the finance committee within SO days, may be taken up by the Sem ate as if it had been unreported. This prevents the committee from burying any tariff bills. It is not likely the changes will be adopted without, at least. a bitter fight.
