BATTLE BETWEEN

at this time, how many were shot.
a spent shot struck workman in q
brewery yard near the Anarchists re-
treat, infiicting fatal wounds. John
Goodman, another spectator, was shot
through the body
Finding their efforts to dislodge the
Anarchists futile, partly owing to
the inaccesSability of their retreat,
the police were reinforced by 60 OF
the scots guards from the Tower gar
rison. They came upon the scene with
their rifles cleaning and soon opened
fire on the beseiged house. Hundreds
of other policemen were called into
service until there were more than
thousand policemen engaged In what
might have been an unequal struggle
but for the impregnability the Anar-
ci1ists' stronghold.
The unparalleled spectacle created
great excitement and large crowds
gathered in the vicinity and mount
ed police were called upon to keep the
thousands of spectators back from the
danger zone both for their safety
and so as not to hamper the move
rnents OF the police. More than $780,
600 people were soon gathered in the
various streets leading to the bate
field
AS the house in which the Anar-
chists were refuged adjoins the house
known as the Anarchists club" the
police suspected that thee two men
whom they sought had accomplices
and for this reason they proceeded
with greater caution than otherwise.
Finally 1t was decided to smoke
the Anarchists out and wagon loads
OF straw were brought up for this
purpose This attempt was to be made
under the protection Of a combined
front and rear attack on the house
but this plan failed owing to the in
accessibility of the house from the
rear.
The police and the guards made re-
peated attempts ito storm the entrance
TO the house but the automatic pistols
used by the defenders swept the ap-
proaci1es with such deadly fire that
the attackers were driven back re-
peatedly. The fire from the house
was 90 terrific that the police became
two Of the defenders. Finally. the po-
lice seized the houses opposite that

The Anarchists were behaving with

TAX RETURNS OF
CORPORATIONS

Collector Of Internal Revenue Rob
ert 0. Eaton is sending out notices
regarding the returns to be MADE by
the corporations upon which the Ied-
eral corporation tax for the year end
ed December 81, 1910, will be based.
Blanks have been mailed to all known
corporations in the district and should
be made out and returned as soon as
possible so as to avoid the SO per cent.
penalty for failure to return by March
1, 1911.
Applications for an extension of
time will only be granted in cases
showing absolute necessity therefor
and on q full and complete examlna.
ton in writing, as it is now assumed
that corporations have had ample
time in which to understand the law.
The returns must be signed In ver1-
fication by two of the principal Of
ficers of the corporation, that is, by
two different individuals. A return
signed by one man as president and
treasurer is not held to comply with
the requirements of the act
Every return must bear the seal OF
the attesting officer and when the at
testing officer has no seal certlncate
of his qualification, signed and sealed
isdiction in the locality, must be at
fixed and filed with the return.
All return of corporations should
be made to the collector OF the dis
trict in which is located the principal
place of business Of the corporation
and the department holds, that that
place is meant in which are kept the
books, papers and other data from
which the return is prepared. Re
turns must be made on the forms
prescribed by the office and to these
returns, so made, the corporation may
append any supplement or explana-
tory statement that it may deem ne
cessary to fair understanding OF
all terms covered by the report.
Any corporation, joint stock COM
pany or association that has not re-
ceived blank returns should apply i'm
mediately to Robert 0. Eaton the col
lector for this district

the year.
Attention is called to the second
annual State Conference of Charities
and Correction, which will be held in
New Haven in April, 1911. and 10 the
thirty-eighth annual meeting Of the
National Conference of Charities and
Correction which will be held in Bos-
ton. June TIA, 1911. Both conferences
are interesting and helpful, and it is
urged that all persons concerned In the
subjects considered make an effort to
attend them
The cost to the State during the
year ending September so, 1910, for
the support or assistance Of such OF
the institutions mentioned in the re-
port as receive State aid, and for
other allied agencies was 1,668, 739. 80
of which $1,11S, 250.39 was for mainten-
ance and $55O.48S94 was for buildings,
land and permanent improvements.
AS compared with the expenditures
for similar purposes in recent years,
the amounts devoted to maintenance
show steady increase which is evil
dent in several different departments.
Some Of the increases noted are due
to the larger numbers of inmates
cared for, as at the Norwich hospi-
tai for the Insane, and other inStitu-
lions. In other cases new develop
ments of work have brought enlarged
expenditures, such as the State care
for tuberculosis which has increased in
cost. from $12.5GO in. 1907 to $57,517
in 1910. The expense for State poor,
also, has grown from $5621 in 1907
to $5S,662, in 1910, as a result Of the
operation Of the State poor law of
1907
While the total cost to the State
for the care of it's delinquent, defec-
tive and Independent classes is large,
and gives promise Of growing larger,
with the apparently inevitable devel-
opment of existing institutions and
new or untitled needs, there is never
theless reason to believe that the
funds appropriated for these pur-
poses are administered, as rule,
with due care and economy. Connec-
ticut must not fall behind other pro-
gresSive States in the enlightened
treatment of those who need restraint
or care, and the striving should be
for effective results rather than for
small expenditures until the coming
of that day when the general adop-
ton of preventive measures shall re-.
duce to q minimum crime and suf-
fering and want.
The report is signed by the men,
bers of the board and the secretary
as follows: Edwin A Down, M. D.,
president, Hartford; Mrs. Frank A.
Mitchell. Norwich; Miss Anna G. Wal
ter, Middletown; Thomas F. Kane,
M. D., Hartford; Justin B. Holman,
Saybrook and Charles P. Kellogg, Sec
rotary, Waterbury.
