ANOTHER INMATE oFs
 NORWICH BAWDY HOUSE
Clara St. .Germain Gave Up Her Earn ings-Jury Gives Her a Verdict.

A detailed story of ten years of shame. after which came the realiza- ton that she was committing wrong and the coming of desire to reform, to a jury and Judge Gardiner Greene in the additional April session of the superior court at Hartford.
 The complaint recited that prior to November 23. 1910, Miss St. Germain let J. Peter Cornelia. or Peter Con- ley, have $1.000. in sums ranging from s1.50 to s16.50. with the understand ing that he deposit it for the plain- tiff, who is unable to read of write.
 The plaintiff was the first witness. She gave her residence as 83 Grove street. Hartford. and said that she gave Conley money each evening when she came home, during the year 1910. He took the money, she testified, with the understanding that it was to be deposited in a Pratt street bank She said that she had been in St. Francis hospital and when she came out she asked Conley for the money. and he refused to give it to her. She had seen the bank book, and although able to make figures was unable to read, A slip of paper containin gthe different amounts given the defendant was in troduced as evidence.
 On cross examination by MT. Dwyer, Miss St Germain admitted that she had met Conley in. a house of i'll re- pute in New London in 1901. She had lived at home in New Bedford before she became an inmate of the house in New London. Later Conley took her to a Norwich house kept by Joseph Emonds She said that she known as Mabel Cantwell and was once arrested under that name She admitted that she used to get pinch ed'' once a year and the boss paid the fines
 After four years in Norwich, dur ing which time Conley visited her twice a week, she went to Unionville. Later she went to a house on Front street in Hartford. Conley then took her to Unionville, where he and his father lived. She kept house for the two and what boarders they had. She said that she was known to the neigh bors as Conley's cousin.
 Because Conley's father was out of a job she said she went back to 'Nell' Wallace's resort in Norwich Conley went after her and took her to a flat in Front street. She said she sup ported him by going to houses of i'll repute She said Conley compelled her to lead this life. From time to time she had visited Peter Murray's resort in Unionville. she said.
 She then told a story of continued changes in Hartford and of her man. ner of living in order to make living for both. After one week in say brook she came back to Hartford and entered St Francis hospital. On coming out she refused to enter the old life.
 At the hospital she learned from the sisters and a priest to realize that the life she was leading was bad
 The case went to the jury Thursday and they brought in a verdict to re- cover the amount of the claim.
