CONN. co. MAY
 BE DENIED PERMIT

Approving of the reports of com mitteeS and sitting in numerous hear ings will occupy the attention of the Board of Aldermen at their session this evening. At this time there is nothing which will come before the meeting which will cause any furry.
 Hearings are scheduled on the change in names of number Of streets in instances where two streets are named alike. The aldermen may appoint a committee to bring about a sweeping change throughout the city affecting all streets which have a like name, and not the few sug- gested by the postal authorities, at whose request the hearings are order ed.
 There is likely to be opposition to the recommendation of the streets and sidewalks committee allowing the Connecticut Go. to extend over the building line at their power plant in Seaview avenue. The hair of some of the aldermen was rubbed the secured permission to lay 10 foot cen ters in Fairfield avenue and at other points. The company may now have to extend itself to secure favor.
 The sewer committee will recom- mend a hearing on the Ellsworth street sewer, for Oct. 2. As the mid de of this street furnished a bound ary line, between the first and second district, there may be many hearings before the question is settled. Those on one side of the street, the second district, will have to pay for the con- struction, while those on the other side, the first district, will enjoy the use of sewer, but it will not cost them a. cent.

.ELkS AND WIVES
 ENJOYED OUTING
 AT STEEPLEChASE

A gathering of 130, mostly members of the local lodge of Elks and their wives, enjoyed a clam bake and sheep roast at Steeplechase Island, yester- day The affair was under the man. agement of the trustees of the lodge, Dr. Charles A. Ryder, George T. Me Carthy and John Hotz. The caterer of the day was Eddie Madigan and the outing proved one of the most enjoyable. The food was splendidly served and the guests had only words Of the highest appreciation for the caterer and the managers of the out ing. The ladies enjoyed the diversion immensely, the day being an ideal one for an outing.
 Just before the dinner was served the professional walters engaged to serve went on a strike, insisting that they should receive a higher sum for their work than had been previously agreed. The walters were promptly told that their demands would not be met and they left the island. Under the command of Walter Lally, himself a charge de affairs of no mean abil- ity, the single men of the party vol unteered to take the place of the strikers. The result was that the food was served much better than had the work been entrusted to the mem bers of the 'tprofesh'', and what at first promised to result in annoyance proved to be the best thing that could have happened.

WALKING TYPHOID VICTIM MAY HAVE
 CAUSED EPIDEMIC

Special from United Press.)
 Torrington, Sept. 18-A theory of the cause of the raging typhoid epidemic that received considerable credence today, is that Adolph Krahl, the New Haven salesman who mysteriously disappeared in. this city, last month might have been the source of the germs in his wanderings over the wa ter sheds. He was walking ty- phoid'' victim, according to his rela- tives.
 It is not believed that Krahls dead body is in the neighboring woods, al- though this possibility enthusedN the authorities to renewed search.
 The total number of fully developed cases, today, is one hundred, an in- crease of 25 since yesterday. About 50 patients are under observation for suspicious cases.
 The samples of the local water SUD- ply sent to the state laboratory will not have been completely analysed until Wednesday.
 Already Marshall Lake, a reservoir, has been closed to the public.
 Secretary of the State Board of Health Townsend, has returned to New Haven and his place was filled, today, by State Chemist Newlands Health officers from surrounding towns are coming to this borough to aid in the fight.

SWEAR IN YOUR LIST AND AVOID
 THE RUSH HOURS

Better response to the swearing to the tax lists will have to be made within the next few days, or there will be many taxpayers who will find that they will have to pay taxes on a ten per cent. increase to their last years lists. The law requires that all taxpayers must swear to their lists before Oct. 1 or submit to a. ten per cent. increase.
 During August and this month, the Board of Assessors have been engaged solely in arranging lists and having them sworn to, but the response has not been what it should be. To date about 12,000 lists have been made out while there is still about 5000 behind As there are but II more days in which to submit the lists, property owners should take advantage of the chance that is now offered them so as to avoid the rush of the last few days, when undoubtedly many will be disappointed.
 The assessors will have to make an average of at least 700 names day Up to the noon hour today about 100 had filed their lists when at least $50 should have done so.

(SPScldl lTcIi OLiLcQ EIeSS.J
 Norwalk. Sept. 1s-That Tony sa- bino, the murderer of Harry MsuIin. who was mysteriously slain oh his farm at Wilton, August 90, is soon to be captured is the opinione today. Of- ficers have been hot on the trail of the man who is said to be a demented Stamford Italian. A posse of 150 of- ficers and citizens hunted the woods near the scene of the murder, last night and today, but this afternoon had not caught their man. The man is still in the woods.
 A revolver and shotgun battle, dur ing which over 100 shots were fired, occurred on the farm of Herbert Oz- den, north of this city yesterday af- ternoon, between a posse or Deputy Sheriffs and Sabino.
 Dressed like a tramp, and armed with the same shotgun, with which he shot Farmer Maudlin, Sabine emerged from the woods, last Wednesday and began building a bonfire near Ogden's barn. Ogden in spite of the Italians shotgun chased him into the woods again. and then notified the authori- ties. Deputy Sheriffs Keyser and Smith and a posse of twenty citizens saw Sabino skulking yesterday near one of Ogden's outhouses, and ex- changed shots with him until, at darkness, he escaped into the woods behind the farm.
 Sabino, who lived in Stamford and is about 35 years old, shot his broth- er-in-law in New Canaan last month. He escaped and lurked around Maud- lin's farm at Wilton. He shot Maud lin in the back when the latter tried to drive him away. and has sinoo been rowing about the wooded hfIfo north of Stamford and Norwalk

Duty of Honest Legislators
 to Stand By Governor
Continued from Page 1.)


 The paid in capital stock of the company is only $203.000. If the bill should pass over the veto of the gov- ernor the corporation can immediate ly issue bonds to the amount of $3,- O00,000, without expending one addi- tional cent toward developing the plant and it can take that $,3OOO,OOO and do with it whatever it pleases; hand it out in dividends if it wishes to.
 It is notable fact that the com pany has not paid dividend in 40 years and just prior to that time it paid one per cent. dividend.
 The only way it can pay dividends is to keep selling bonds and paying dividends by the sale of bonds.
 Governor Baldwin's veto of this bill has won commen endation from the press throughout the state with one or two notable exceptions. The governors veto should be upheld in the interest of honest legislation.

 Temporal Kingdom

The proposed kingdom would include the vatican and St. Peters and might ex- tend to the western coast.
