held for the Superior court, found guilty of manslaughter, and sentenced to a year in jail. which sentence he is now serving.
 The suit was started in the Superior court before Judge Milton A. Shum- way on Tuesday morning. and went to the jury following the arguments about 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon. It took the jury less than an hour to arrive at it's verdict. It was learn ed that the first ballot was 11-1 for responsibility. The second ballot was unanimous. Then rested the amount of damages. The minds of the jury men were much at variance, amounts of between 2.000 and $5,o00 being pro- posed. Three of the jurymen were for the limit of the law. After con- siderable discussion. they succeeded in bringing the other nine around to their way of thinking. The court accepted the verdict and excused the jurymen.
 Attorney General John H. Light, who was counsel for the defendant, states that he will take appeal to the Supreme court on the ground that the chauffeur Of the machine was not driving the car for the service of the owner. having the auto out without the owners permission.

LOCO COMPANY DESIGNS MOTOR
 FIRE ENGINES
Huge Type Planned, Equal in Capacity to Biggest Steam
 Fire Engines
HIGH SPEED AND CAPACITY
Believed That Bridgeport Pro. duct Will RevOlutiOnize
 Fire Fighting

Plans are under way at the works of the LocomobiIe Go. of America for the building of the largest motor fire engines in the world, capable of pumping 1,2OO gallons a minute and of taking the place of the largest horse drawn fire engines ever placed in service.
 It is understood that the lines which the Locomobile Co. will lay down for its fire fighting apparatus will revolutionize the fine engine world. It is hinted that one of the reasons the local fire commission has been reluctant about spending the S8,500 at its command for motor fire engine is because the capacity of the largest motor driven engine on the market is 600 gallons a minute and the commissioners had an inkling that the local company is going to produce something bigger and better. This has led them to hold off before spending the money.
 Vice President Andrew L.. Riker, of the Locomobile Co.,, who has designed the most famous cars turned out by the company told a Farmer reporter this morning that the company in- tends to enter the field of commercial car production and that one of the first types that it had under consid- eration was a first class fire engine.
 The motor fire engines now on the market use the same engines to run the pumps as are used to furnish
 Fire fighting experts all over the country have argued against the rotary engine for pumping purposes and have held out for the centrifical or plunger pumps such as are used on all the horse drawn fire engines w f. ments of the modern world for many years.
 It is understood that the Locomo- bile fire engine will carry a plunger pump. MT. Riker was asked this morning if he would use the same power to drive the pumps as is used to drive the car. He said that in order to pump 1900 gallons a minute, or more that 120 to 150 horsepower would be necessary and this is much ate the car. He was not prepared to state just how the company plans to drive the pumps of the new engine.
 In the many cities where the Loco- mobile has been put in service for fire fighting purposes, including this city the apparatus has shown great sta- bility. There is no doubt that when the Locomobile Go. gets ready to market a fire engine, it will capture the market.
 New York city has purchased its last horse to draw fire apparatus and from year to year will add motor drawn apparatus until all animals are displaced with motor driven appara- tus. Other big cities are talking of following suit and the sun has set upon the day of the noble fire horse.
 With 1,200 gallon engine the Co. will help advance the time when there will be no more fire horses.

 half Is the result of the towns new
 appraisement just completed by the assessors. This is an increase of more
 than half a million over last years
 list and apart from the added values coming from new buildings represents
 a 50 per cent. raise in assessed valua
 tions. A tax rate of ten mills as against fifteen mills last year would
 produce a revenue upwards of thousand dollars more than last
 years revenue. The list is to be re- viewed next month by the board of relief. but their reductions and addi-
 change the total. The largest as-
 sessnent on the list is that against
 the Gilbert & Bennett Co.,, who are down for $336,000, a raise of $132,000 from last year. Next is Commodore Luttgen with a total of $65,760. Of dwelling houses, three greenhouses,

 The two houses. of Stormfield, the Mark Twain estate, are in for $26,- 500 and the land appraisal brings the total to $33,250.

Connery Bros. are assessed at $10,000 as the sum they have invested in and trade, this being their own valuation. As soon as the abstract is made up which will be within two weeks, there will probably be a rush of taxpayers to the town clerks office to inspect 1t, a desire for the information thus obtainable having been stimulated by the mo- tices sent by the assessors to the prop erty owners that they have been raised" Naturally the property owner will wish to know how much and he may follow with a "why" ad- dressed to the board Of relief, said why being in the nature of a protest and an appeal.
