NEW ALDERMEN HAVE NOTHING
 BUT BUSINESS
Hard Work Ahead of Them and New Offices For Them to Fill Unfinished Business

There are not many offices for the incoming board of aldermen to fill The Democrats will elect a president far is Hugh J. Lavery of the Tenth district. They will also elect a page and there is no doubt that the pres ent incum bent of the office, Thomas Cleary, will be chosen. There will be no sealers of weights and measures chosen this year because they were elected last year for two years. There will be no military enrolment regis trars chosen this year because the new system of collecting personal taxes has vested the duties of making the enrolment in the hands of the General Registrars. A land indexer will be elected some time during the year. The incoming common council has raft of business as a heritage of the last council. There are numerous petitions for new macadam pavement in the hands of the street committee which could not be acted upon be- cause of a lack of appropriations. There is also considerable sewer work that is contemplated but which could not be carried out because no money was available.
 Legislation which the outgoing council did not complete is as fol- lows:
 Adoption or rejection of the build ing code which the city paid S3,600 to have drafted in order to protect the center of the city from fire
 Widening of Congress street which depends upon the mayor affixing his signature to the order issued by the last council to the property owners to remove their buildings and other Instructions which stood over the proposed new building line.
 Proposed construction of a sewer in Orland street from Belmont avenue to Fairfield avenue.
 Proposed construction of a storm water sewer in Iranistan avenue from State street to Cedar Creek.
 Proposed construction of a sewer in Wakeley street.
 The extension of outlets to all the sewers now emptying into Johnson's creek and which now flow over low lands.
 Extension of the Orange street sew CT outlet.
 The petition of Alderman O'ConneIl for the widening of Housatonic ave- nue which is still in the hands of the street committee.
 Project to widen Stratford avenue on the south side from the lower bridge, easterly.
 The petition of Frank W. Hurd to bring about the widening of Congress street westerly from Main street.

COUNT BONI
 WOULD WED
 ANNE MORGAN
Petitions Pope to Grant Church Divorce, Annulling Marriage With Anna Gould
Then He'd Press Suit For the Hand of American Financier's Daughter
Especial from United Press }


 Rome, Nov. 10.-Count Boni De Castellane, former husband of Anna Gould, now the wife of his cousin, Prince De Sagan, today, filed, with the Vatican, a formal petition asking the Pope to confirm his civil divorce and grant him a church divorce. Count Boni, it is said, is suing for the hand of Miss Anne Morgan, daughter of J. Pierpont Morgan, of New York. De CaStellane, in his petition, is said to have set up that his marriage to Anna Gould was iI- legal from a church standpoint, the Bishop of his diocese not having been formally notified.
 The option is said to be under sec ret consideration by the officials of the Vatican, and it is known that there is a great opposition to grant ing the divorce, for, under the laws of the Catholic Church, no such thing as formal divorce can be granted, but marriage may be annulled and on the grounds of illegality. Children of marriage thus annulled, however are regarded in the Catholic Church as illegitfmate, on the grounds that their parents were never married. The Vatican is said to be seriously debating before placing the ban of illegitimacy upon the three De Cas- tellane children.
 In some circles, it is said, J. Pier pont Morgan refused to permit De CasteIlane to pay attention to Miss Morgan until the Vatican has an- nulled his marriage with Anna Gould.

JOvIAL WITNESS
 HAD HIS SMILE
 ALL WIPED OFF
Was Grinning Merrily While Giving Testimony When the Court Ordered His Arrest

Joseph Goodman, a shophand of the Whiting Manufacturing Co.,, living at 90 White street, was beaming with smiles as the complaining witness against Otto Aberle, fellow employe living at 574 Central avenue, when Judge Foster suddenly dispelled his smiles by ordering Goodman's arrest for assault Testimony during the trial of Aberle showed that Goodman had helped the fight along from the start.
 Aberle and Goodman were on their way to work yesterday morning when the latter made insulting gestures to Aberle, who sailed into Goodman. Goodman caused Aberle's arrest on a warrant and Judge Foster meted out the same penalty to each, fine of S and costs.

SEARCH FOR ASSAILANT
 OF SMALL GIRL

With the eight-year-old daughter of John Martin of ss Commercial street under the care of a physician, and ths entire police force armed with a de- scription of her assaf1ant, no trace Of the man who enticed her into vacant house opposite her home and abused her could be found today.
 Had the man been located in the search through the neighborhood yes- terday, violent hands would have been laid upon him, for the residents of the locality were frantic with rage when they learned of the little girls expert ence.
 According to the story of the child, who is regarded as truthful, she was accosted by a man passing in front of her home, and asked about a vacant house across the street. The man ask ed her to show him the rear entrance to the unoccupied dwelling. When she reached the back yard, he snatched her up in his arms. carried her into the vacant house, which he no doubt had already forced open, and after de- taining the child there as long as he wished, he spanked her and command ed her to go home and say nothing Of what had occurred.
 Entering her own home crying, ths child told her father, who at once called upon his neighbors to help in the man hunt. Patro1man Holbrook who resides nearby and was off duty. led the search. The man was de- scribed as dark with an ugly red scar on the face, and probably a foreigner
 More complete description of the missing man was later obtained, when 1t was learned that he is apparently between 20 and 9 years of age, dark, xyff h hair, and a sore on the neck. He wore dark clothing, but whether a black derby or black cap the little girl was not certain.

NO MAINE REPORT.
The Finding of Insulated Wire Under
the Hull of Wreck Has Not
Been Confirmed.

Washington, Nov. 18.-The report of
the finding of lot of insulated copper
wire under the hull of the wreck of
the battleship Maine in Harbor is not
confirmed by the department.
1t is pointed out, however, that while
the discovery of such insulated wire
as might be used for firing a mine
would support the theory of this gov
eminent that the explosion came from
the outside, long ago similar wire was
discovered, and it proved to be only
part of the lighting outfit of the war
ship.
A wire or cable connecting a mine
with the shore would not be likely to
answer the description given of a large
quantity of insulated copper wire un
der and above the hull.
The special board is authorized spe
officially to raise the Maine and bring
her to this country. 1t is not believed
that there is any great desire on the
American side to reopen the old ques
ton as to the responsibility for the
disaster.

HARVARD TO Win
THE annual GAME
IS GENERAL VIEW
The Ellis Have Captured Twenty.
Three Games Out of the Thirty
Games With Harvard.
(By Union Associated Press.)

New Haven, Conn.,, Nov. 1S.-Yale
and Harvard meet on the gridiron
here tomorrow for the thirtieth time
since their first game, in 1876, the
series having been broken several
times. Yale has won twenty-three
games, and it is likely to be twenty
three for the Ellis for another year to
come, since the Crimson invaders look
like sure victors tomorrow. Harvard
has won only four games, two of the
contests-those in 1897 and 1899
having resulted in tie scores. 1t was
not until 1890 that Harvard won it's
first game, and the Cambridge eleven
waited until 1898 to repeat that vic
tory. The Crimson won again in
1901 and was then beaten in six con-
secutive contests, until Kennard's IA
nous goal from the field turned the
tide two years ago.
The record of the more recent
games is as follows:

ended in Detroit, and resulted in an
increase averaging 80 per cent. addi-

on the increased price of glass, the
profit of the Imperial being between
6 and per cent. This wage increase
affected about 10000 men.
